Zuo Xue raised her right hand, glanced at her watch, sighed softly, stood up and faced the center of the main room. Her pure and clear eyes cast her eyes on the exquisite picture frame that had been wiped and cleaned and looked brand new in front of the main room, staring at the black and white photos inside the frame.
In the photo, the middle-aged man has a kind smile on his face, and his dark and bright eyes are shining.
This is Zhou Pingyuan, the father of Zhou Hai.
"Uncle, I was in such a hurry this time that I forgot to burn paper in memory of you. I had to clean the house and wipe the dust for you."
Standing quietly in front of the main room, Zuo Xue had a beautiful smile on her face and whispered:
"I believe you should know that after graduating from the college entrance examination, Zhou Hai did not sign up to join the army as you had previously wished, nor did he join the 149th Iron Fist Division as you expected. Instead, he applied for the Air Force Aviation University to become an air force pilot and pursue the pilot in his heart. He has been gone for a year and a half, and the army has discipline and regulations, so he hardly has time to come back to see you."
The words were soft and subtle, echoing in the quiet hall.
The refreshing light fragrance overflows and spreads.
"My name is Zuo Xue. I am Zhou Hai's girlfriend. I used to be Zhou Hai's class monitor at Chenghua High School. Now I am a master's student at the National University of Defense Technology. I will soon graduate and join the workforce to contribute to the motherland. From October to now, I I have been engaged in technical research at Chengdu Aircraft Manufacturing Co., Ltd., so I couldn’t come to pay my respects to you on New Year’s Eve.”
Zuo Xue looked at the kind-faced Zhou Pingyuan in the photo, her eyes gradually became distant, and her words were as gentle as water, like a clear mountain stream, which warmed her heart:
"Tell me about Zhou Hai, and the relationship between us. Of course, only to you."
Revealing all the thoughts accumulated in his heart, just like talking to himself, narrating it to Zhou Pingyuan, who is under the nine springs, venting the pressure and emotions.
She is usually smiling, but since she embarked on this road full of difficulties and obstacles, she has endured loneliness and loneliness, as well as great mental pressure.
The strings in my heart were always tense.
Setbacks at the physical level of the body can be endured through gritted teeth and persistence.
But the pressure in the mental field can be endured alone in the short term, but in the long term, you must find an outlet.
Zhou Hai, who made a four-year promise, is not around. His mentor Su Rui's identity is not suitable. He has no friends and does not support his betrayed parents. Under various conditions, Zhou Pingyuan, the uncle under Jiuquan, is the best person at this stage. listener.
This is like a silent and empty well, the best listener.
She wanted to talk and use sonorous and powerful words to consolidate and strengthen her beliefs and dreams, and never give in to her parents and family who had betrayed her.
"At the beginning, as a monitor at the time, I just heard that Zhou Hai's family background was not good and his life was somewhat difficult, so I wanted to encourage and help. Later, I gradually got to know him better, and this guy walked into my life unknowingly. In my heart. Zhou Hai is not handsome, he has an average appearance, barely meeting the standard in my heart, and his body is not very tall, not as tall as I thought before. He is not 1.8 meters tall, but we belong to the same kind of people and share a common language. Common ideals, common beliefs, common goals.”
Zuo Xue held the shining third-class merit medal in her hand like a token of love, and murmured softly:
"When we were together in the second semester of our senior year of high school, I simply attributed my good impression of Zhou Hai to my adolescence. It wasn't until later that I discovered that it was not a good impression, but a liking. I liked his ambition, his stubbornness, and I like his persistence, his intelligence and gentleness, his talents and talents, and even more, his unwavering beliefs and dreams."
In the short time before and after the college entrance examination, Zuo Xue learned about Zhou Hai's personal situation of losing his parents through deepening relationships and exchanges. He also knew about the various difficulties and hardships Zhou Hai experienced when he lost his father in high school.
The loss of his mother when he was young, and the loss of his father when he was young, both of them were like catastrophic blows, and they all fell into Zhou Hai's life.
However, Zhou Hai was not knocked down. After the phoenix's rebirth, he fought tenaciously and gritted his teeth to move forward. In the end, he reversed his fate, strengthened his faith, and applied for the Air Force Aviation University.
This is what deeply attracted her to Zhou Hai.
Motivated, stubborn and determined.
"Of course, I also learned from Zhou Haikou that under your stick education, he changed from an uncultured brat who liked to scold others to learn to be polite and respectful to others. It's very interesting." Zuo Xue said slowly. .
At the end of his words, he couldn't help but feel a hint of amusement at the corner of his mouth.
The image of Zhou Hai being chased by Zhou Pingyuan with a stick naturally appeared in his mind.
No one is born well-educated and motivated. When he was young, Zhou Hai was completely a naughty child.
However, Zhou Pingyuan, a veteran who once served in the 149th Iron Fist Division, is unreasonable and only has sticks for family education.
Uneducated and like to curse?
One word, beat.
Zhou Pingyuan's stick education is measured and he will not beat people for no reason, but only when they make mistakes.
The rich experience gained from his military career allowed him to only hit areas with a lot of flesh, causing pain but not damaging the body or internal organs.
In the midst of pain, young Zhou Hai learned to grow and understand what is right and wrong.
This is how Zuo Xue learned about the boy's previously unknown experience and life process, which she learned from her interactions with Zhou Hai at the end of high school.
"He wants to be a pilot. I have always wanted to be the best aircraft designer. Maybe it is fate, maybe it is the choice of fate, especially after seeing me off at Shuangliu Airport, especially when this guy promised me a four-year contract. After the promise, especially after this third-class medal was mailed to me.”
In the hall, Zuo Xue, who had already vented his emotions, felt more and more relaxed, his mind was clear, and his beliefs were firm. He held the third-class merit medal tightly in his right hand, his eyes were like torches, dazzling, and his lips were reddish, and he whispered:
"In Zhou Hai, I saw hope and the future. My love gradually evolved into feelings. I love him deeply. In the future, we may be together less and separated more, and there may be all kinds of difficulties and obstacles waiting for us. , However, my belief will never waver. I firmly believe that Zhou Hai and I will go to the end, and Zhou Hai will become the best pilot of the motherland, and I will continue to explore and advance in the field of scientific research, develop the most advanced fighters for him and the motherland, and protect the motherland. motherland."
The voice ranges from soft to powerful, from calm to high.
Protect the motherland!
This is the belief of soldiers, and it is also the belief of soldiers. It is like a spiritual temple that will never collapse!
As the words fell, there was silence in the brightly lit hall.
The atmosphere changed, solemn and solemn,
