Before leaving, Xia Jinyuan wrote a letter to Ye Tong's school, hoping that she would receive his letter when school started.
He left without saying goodbye. … Only the little girl was familiar with this kind of thing. He didn't want to learn from her.
The letter arrived at school two days before school started. After returning to the mountains and arriving at the army, Ye Chien fought with the soldiers all day long. She didn't even miss her daily exercises and training. When she looked up from the target, the days passed by like flipping through a book. In the blink of an eye, it was time to report back to school and usher in the third year of middle school.
She still couldn't bear to leave the army, causing the soldiers in the army to laugh and tease Ye Chien, who was like a little sister to them.
It was noon when she left. Dozens of people sent her off at the same time. The scene was so spectacular that the regiment commander laughed out loud.
He said to the political commissar, "This little girl was born to be a soldier. How can you tell that she's a little girl? For the sake of training, she cut her silky long hair just like that. Now, she looks just like a boy."
He paused and added, "It's just that her skin is a little too pale. She's been under the sun for more than 20 days, but I don't see her tan."
"If the little girl really turns into a coal under the sun, she'll cry." The political commissar laughed. There wasn't a single female soldier in the army. Even the military doctor was a man. With Ye Chien, the little girl's arrival had the effect of balancing yin and yang.
Although ordinary people weren't allowed to enter the military grounds, Ye Chien was different. Even the military took note of her. When they found out that she was here, they even called and told her to teach her well.
The little girl had a good temper and was hardworking. She was like a piece of gold in the army, shining wherever she went.
Any army would be willing to open their doors and welcome such a talent.
More than 10 days passed by quickly. Looking at this group of soldiers, he knew how much they couldn't bear to see her leave. Not only the soldiers, but even he, the political commissar, couldn't bear to see her leave.
They walked all the way to the entrance of the barracks. Only then did the soldier, who couldn't go out, pass Ye Chien's luggage to her. He patted her shoulder as if she was a comrade and said with a smile, "Come back on Saturday and Sunday. There are a lot of pheasants in the mountains in autumn. When the time comes, we'll carry the company commander and roast some pheasants!"
"Okay, then I'll have to bring a few more bags of cumin powder. Sprinkle a handful of cumin powder on it when it's cooked. That's called fragrant!" Ye Chien had cut his hair as soon as he entered the army, revealing his exquisite and flawless facial features. His eyes were as dazzling as the stars in the sky, and his smile was as bright as the morning sun. "Wait for me. See you on Saturday morning!"
Compared to the colorful life outside, Ye Chien loved this blood-boiling land more.
When she walked out of the barracks, she turned back to look at the tall figures dressed in army green who seemed to blend into the mountains. Even the corners of her eyes were smiling. One by one, they stood ramrod straight like rows of spears at the entrance of the barracks. Even if it was resting time, they were always ready.
In the army, the most common saying was, "Soldiers are trained for a thousand days to be used in an hour." The most discussed topic was, "Protect the country."
No matter what era it was, those rows of army green figures would always be the "most adorable people" of that era!
After leaving the army at noon, they took a village car to town in the afternoon. The people in the car were either from the same village or from the neighboring villages. They talked about their hometown all the way to town.
