Hope is the common hope of two passionate soldiers who are getting further and further away from their dreams.
However, the person who realizes this hope actually exists.
There was a tacit understanding between each other, so when we shook hands, there was a little more understanding and expectation.
However, as a military instructor who watched Gong Xue grow up, Long Zhan had a unique understanding of Gong Xue's character and past experiences after spending more than four years with him.
"Xiaoxue has changed a lot this time when she came back. She is more positive about life and emotions than before. These are all gratifying changes. But Gao Lie, you still have to be tolerant of her. After all, a girl who has had that kind of experience
, Wanting to heal the pain in the heart cannot happen overnight." Long Zhan said.
Gao Lie's chiseled face was particularly handsome and dazzling against the colorful lights. He smiled slightly, pursed his lips, and said in a calm but firm tone: "I will love her forever."
Long Zhan glanced at him with emotion and said nothing, because there was no need to say anything more.
He and Gao Lie are the same kind of people, both are men who do much more than they say. This kind of people like to give silently and never make promises easily, but once they make a promise to each other, they will persist and protect each other for the rest of their lives.
.
Just like Gao Lie to Xiaoxue, just like he to Sifeng...
The same purpose, both in the name of love, but the difference is the result. One is to gain and be fulfilled, while the other is to let go and lose forever...
Fortunately, everything has passed...
Seeing Gong Xue and Gao Lie now, and seeing Sifeng with clear and calm eyes, he felt that all the previous experiences, those days full of suffering and pain, were really gone forever.
In the end, it was basically sobering up. Everyone drank fragrant Pu'er and talked about the wonderful past of the military camp and the national defense student class. From time to time, there were lively laughter and discussions in the private room, which lasted until late at night.
There is no banquet in the world that never ends. When we say goodbye, we are not only reluctant to leave, but also sad.
Long Sifeng, who was the most drunk, choked with tears while holding Gong Xue, and refused to let go for a long time.
"Xiaoxue...can I see you again? Woohoo...you promise me...you must be good in the future...I will miss you...and...you...
Captain Gao is really nice. I can see that he is sincere to you... Xiaoxue... Just stop thinking about... Stop thinking about that person, stop thinking about him, okay? Promise
I..." The true feelings are revealed, and the familiar Henan dialect reappears in the world.
Fortunately, they were far away and Sifeng's voice was not too loud, so no one else could hear her.
Gong Xue looked at Sifeng, who was confused but still persisted in enlightening her, as if she had returned to the age of youth and excitement in her memory.
"Okay, I promise you." Gong Xue hugged Sifeng tightly and said solemnly in her ear.
Long Zhan and Hua Jingyi both drove over. Sifeng took Long Zhan's car and went home with him to take care of his sister-in-law. Zhou Botong was staying at the military guest house and had to take the next day's train back to his station in Sichuan.
Gao Lie originally booked a hotel in Kunming, but Hua Jingyi asked them to cancel. She said it was more convenient to live at home, and she still had a lot to say to Gong Xue.
Before leaving, Long Zhan gave Gong Xue a big red envelope, "You are the first one in our national defense class to get married. Everyone wants to be happy when they know it. Here, this is a gift, and there is a detailed list inside.
Go back and see if you missed any fish."
Gong Xue did not refuse, but after taking it, she handed it to Gao Lie, "You keep it, and you will return it in the future."
Gao Lie was startled for a moment, then laughed loudly, "Okay! I'll pay it back! As long as someone in your class gets married, the gift money will be returned in double the amount, how about it!"
Everyone was stunned, Zhou Botong was the first to react, "Then... can I add two more..." He stretched out his hand to Gao Lie, but Long Sifeng slapped it away, "You must be a bit promising... Botong
Brother!"
A group of people stood at the entrance of the ancient alley and laughed. The laughter spread far and wide without stopping.
Hua Family Courtyard.
In the dead of night, the dim yellow lights in the corridor look warm and quiet.
The grapevines that had withered all winter in the yard are showing signs of sprouting new branches. They are hidden under the leafy trees and you can hear the sound of leaves rubbing their branches...
Gao Lie didn't sleep. He looked at the dark window, lowered his voice, and said goodbye to the person on the other end of the phone.
"Okay, that's it, okay...Thank you, uncle, for letting you bother...Okay, goodbye."
The screen of the mobile phone flashed in the dark night and then went out quickly.
Gao Lie stared at the black screen for a few seconds, then slowly raised his head and turned his eyes behind him, "Sister-in-law?"
It was definitely not Xiaoxue, because before he came out, he had already made sure that his girl was asleep.
During the past few days of travel, she always fell asleep quickly. He didn't know whether it was because she was relaxing physically and mentally after leaving the environment of the military camp, or for some other reason, but he didn't have time to ask.
Hua Jingyi walked down the stairs, stopped in front of Gao Lie, and greeted with a smile: "Why aren't you asleep yet?"
Gao Lie pointed at her and said with a smile: "To each other."
It means something.
After a moment of silence, Hua Jingyi took the initiative to speak: "Okay, I admit, I didn't sleep on purpose. Gao Lie, let's talk."
Without any foreshadowing, the conversation began.
"Do you know much about Xiaoxue and Gao Yuan?" Hua Jingyi, with serious eyes, seemed to have changed. She went straight to the point.
"Well, you know it, and I know it too."
"They love each other deeply, and you and Gao Yuan are so similar. Have you ever thought that she may have entered into marriage with you for a kind of spiritual sustenance." Hua Jingyi continued.
Gao Lie lowered his eyes for a long time before slowly saying: "I don't deny that Xiaoxue had such thoughts at first. After marriage, she has not completely walked out of the shadow of the past. I know all this. But because of this, I
Only then did I respect her more, respect her and
The pure and flawless relationship A Yuan had when they were together. It’s not because A Yuan is my biological brother that I am so protective and generous, but because their love has long ceased to be a matter between the two of them. Like me, if
My family, such as sister-in-law and Qin
Team, every family member and friend who watched them along the way participated in it, and were deeply moved and inspired. A woman like Xiaoxue is hard to find in the world, and A Yuan was not lucky enough to stay with her forever, which was his lifelong regret
, but the most beautiful thing in heaven is
What makes A Yuan sad is Xiaoxue's self-enclosed and self-punishing lifestyle after his sacrifice. But no matter how heartbroken and anxious he is, he can't help Xiaoxue or protect his most beloved girl. I think A Yuan will definitely refuse
Leave easily..."
He turned his gaze to the shining stars in the night, and said with longing eyes: "If we talk about the fate of Xiaoxue and me, it is also because of A Yuan. Maybe he left too suddenly and was too unwilling, so after his sacrifice,
for a period of time,
I often dream about him. A Yuan in the dream looks full of thoughts, and his familiar eyes are full of pleading. In several dreams with clear memories, I heard him calling Xiaoxue, while calling Xiaoxue, while
call me brother,
When his figure gradually blurred, I wanted to hold him and stop him from leaving so quickly, but every time I woke up, I would be swallowed up by endless darkness. The more times I dreamed, I faintly noticed something strange, and I always felt that A Yuan
There is unfinished business
My wish frequently appeared in my dreams... It wasn't until I met Xiaoxue later, and she pulled her sleeves while crying helplessly, and called me A Yuan, that I suddenly understood what exactly A Yuan wanted to entrust to me.
What is..."
"Then you treat Xiaoxue..." Hua Jingyi was worried that he was with Xiaoxue out of pity.
"I really love her. Ever since I learned how kind and upright Xiaoxue is, I have fallen deeply in love with her. I'm not afraid of your jokes. Now that I think back to the original scene, I can't help but feel sorry for her.
I dare to believe that the impulsive Gao Lie is
I..." He smiled, his eyes clear, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, nothing you are worried about will happen. As long as I am here, she will have peace and joy, and I will take good care of her as long as I live. This is not only
Not only for me, but also for A Yuan..."
The conversation between the two didn't last long, because they were both smart people who could tell the truth at once, and there was no need to use any difficult questions to test each other's sincerity.
The content of the conversation was nothing more than one person, a girl they had protected for many years and agreed to continue to protect.
In the fragrant courtyard in early spring, Hua Jingyi seemed extremely relieved after getting the answer. She felt it was amazing that she, who had always been wary of strangers' words, believed in Gao Lie unconditionally.
This is the charm of a person.
Because Gao Lie has many similarities with Gao Yuan and her husband Qin Mo.
Hua Jingyi sincerely sent her blessing: "I wish you love will grow stronger every year, and I also wish Xiaoxue can start a truly happy life from you."
"Thank you." No matter how many blessings he received, Gao Lie still wanted to accept them all.
Gao Lie politely said goodbye and went back to his room to rest, but Hua Jingyi did not go back immediately. She twisted a grapevine above her head and faced the light. She found that countless green leaf buds had grown on it, and the rows of buds,
Like a row of newborn babies, sucking the spring rain and dew.
The stars in the night sky were so bright that her eyes could not help but turn red as she looked at them.
"Gaoyuan, my sister-in-law has finally accomplished what she promised you... You can rest in peace in heaven..."
One day many years ago, she had jokingly promised Gao Yuan that one day if Gao Yuan was gone, she would definitely help Xiao Xue find her own happiness. At that time, she thought it was a joke and forgot about it, but she never thought
, such an outstanding and smiling Gao Yuan would really leave them and his beloved Xiaoxue...
Over the next several years, she learned little by little about Xiaoxue's stubbornness and persistence.
Such deep feelings and persistence made her feel scared...
I thought I would never be able to fulfill my promise in this life, but I didn't want to, but suddenly I received a call from Chengdu, Sichuan...
"Hello, Teacher Hua, I am Gao Lie and I am Gong Xue's lover. We are expected to arrive in Kunming in two days. If it is convenient, we would like to meet you."
The voice on the other end of the phone was deep and humble, with a huge reflection wave that instantly exploded and spread in her body...
Xiaoxue, Xiaoxue’s lover...
She, got married...
Fortunately, fortunately, everything that happened after that was the result she was happy to see. And this seemingly neurotic soldier actually had a delicate and tender heart, and he only loved Xiaoxue.
Hua Jingyi exhaled softly, curved her lips slightly, flicked the branch in her hand, and turned around to go back to the room.
