Lin Shu was shocked.

She could never have dreamed that he would say such a thing.

Her face was burning, but she would be a fool if she believed him!

She believed that he would miss her, but he was unsatisfied and anxious... The anxiety was probably true, but the unsatisfied desire was definitely false!

... When would he be affected by this?

She suppressed her pounding heartbeat, and because of his injured arm, she did not dare to struggle too much, but just said angrily: "Let me go first!"

"Shu Shu."

He lowered his head and called her, but when he saw the tears on her eyelashes, he was stunned, let go of her, and said softly, "What's wrong? "

Lin Shu didn't know why, she just felt extremely uncomfortable.

Since she heard that he was injured, she became tense. Although he said it was not serious, the wound was so scary, how could it not be serious?

How dangerous was the situation at that time when the stone and gravel could be cut like that?

But he was still joking with her... He didn't take her seriously at all.

And she was probably a little tired because she had been on the train for more than 30 hours, plus a four-hour car ride, so she couldn't vent her emotions as well as usual.

Why was he so anxious?

Why did Brigade Commander Lu have such a big opinion of her?

She grabbed his clothes and asked him: "What's going on? What do you mean by anxious? What's going on? What has happened to affect your status in the army? "

Liang Jinxi was stunned.

He was just too excited and said a few words to coax her, but she caught the loophole in his words.

... This time he couldn't tell her seriously that "it's just unsatisfied".

She was still looking at him persistently.

He looked at her tears in her eyelashes and her stubborn look with her lips pursed lightly, reached out and touched her hair, and said softly: "I miss you very much. I feel guilty for not being able to go back to accompany you for the college entrance examination. During that time, I had to go on a mission and couldn't even call. After I came back, you went to the countryside again, and I felt very uncomfortable... Shushu, I know you don't mind these, but you were away those days, I missed you very much, and I felt that I couldn't give you a good life. "

She looked at him blankly.

This time she believed him.

Just because of this?

She reached out and hugged him, not knowing what to say. After a while, she whispered: "As long as you are fine, I know you are fine, and I will be fine. "

He stroked her back.

Although he had begun to doubt Zhou Chengzhi's words about "she might know something about the future" because of the recurring images and fragments in his dreams, he did not intend to ask her directly.

If she really had something, she would tell him when she wanted to, or felt that she should tell him.

He would not ask her.

She was his wife.

He asked her to be his partner and to get married.

He promised to treat her well, so he would treat her well, instead of questioning her or forcing her to say something she did not want to say for the time being.

The next day, Liang Jinxi went to the army.

Lin Shu cleaned up the house.

Liang Jinxi used to live in the dormitory of the front-line troops, and this small yard was newly applied for, but she could see that he had tried his best to buy a lot of things according to their previous home, but it was still less popular and the yard was empty.

Lin Shu took Zhenzhen to clean up for a while, and then made a list, thinking about what else to buy and what to plant in the yard.What.

At noon, Teacher Ruan came again.

Brought some vegetables to Lin Shu and asked her if she needed anything. If she needed anything, it would be difficult to go to the town or the base canteen to buy it now, so she just told her to bring it to her.

Lin Shu thanked her and smiled, "I don't need anything for the time being. If I need anything, I will definitely tell my sister-in-law."

Teacher Ruan hesitated for a moment and said, "Why don't you bring the children to my place at noon and we can eat together. It's boring for me to eat alone."

Her two children went to middle school the year before last and last year respectively. They studied in the Nanzhou Base Boarding School. Because it was far away, it took seven or eight hours to go back and forth. Generally, they would come back once a semester without a long vacation. Teacher Ruan would go there to see them herself when she missed her children too much.

Lin Shu rarely touches people's skin now, and it rarely happens that she listens to other people's thoughts.

But she found that even if she didn't touch people's skin, she was very sensitive to people's feelings and emotions.

She saw that Teacher Ruan was sincere in inviting her, and there was a hint of loneliness in her expression, so she accepted and said, "Sister-in-law, I am sorry to bother you, just don't think our Zhenzhen is noisy."

Teacher Ruan smiled and said, "I wish I had a child to make noise at home."

Lin Shu took Zhenzhen to Teacher Ruan's house.

By the way, she also brought two picture books to Zhenzhen, and helped Teacher Ruan to cook.

Teacher Ruan asked Lin Shu about going to college, and said: "I heard that you are going to apply for a university in Nanzhou. If you really go to college, how will you arrange for the child?"

Lin Shu smiled and said: "I plan to take the child with me. We bought a house in the university's family compound. My mother-in-law said she would come to help us take care of the child for a while. Jinxi said that we will hire someone to take care of the child later. In fact, I don't think it's necessary. I will find a kindergarten for Zhenzhen when we get there. The university classes are not tight and the time is free. I think I can send her to the kindergarten during the day and pick her up in the morning and evening... I will see the situation at that time, but it is definitely not a big problem."

Teacher Ruan hesitated for a moment and said: "Does Deputy Commander Liang support your going to college?"

Lin Shu looked at her sideways, thinking of Brigade Commander Lu's opinion of him... Jinxi said it was because he blamed himself for having too much influence on Jinxi?

Lin Shu smiled and said, "He is very supportive. He has always supported me in everything I did before, and this time is no exception. You know how busy they are in the army. I have to have my own life. Otherwise, he is always on the front line and will not go home for more than ten or twenty days or even months when he is on a mission. What should I do?"

Teacher Ruan opened her mouth and wanted to say that she could be a teacher in an elementary school.

But she looked at the light in Lin Shu's eyes and did not say it.

She herself has been a teacher in a border elementary school for more than ten years. It's not that it's bad, but she is helpless most of the time.

...Those children come and go, many of them just learn to read, and stop studying after half a year or a year. Except for some children from the military officers here, there are very few local children in the mountains who can persist in studying, and there are almost no children who continue to study in middle schools outside after finishing elementary school.

"But the most important thing is that I want to study."

Teacher Ruan was stunned and heard Lin Shu laugh again, "I tell you, when I finished high school, I wanted to go to college, but at that time everyone had to go to the countryside. There was no choice but to go to the countryside... Teacher Ruan, you are in the border area, you don't know, those educated youth who went to the countryside, when they heard that the college entrance examination was resumed, almost cried with joy, and everyone signed up. Those who didn't have the conditions did farm work during the day and studied late at night. They all regarded this as a major event that would affect their lives."

"For someone like me, there are no insurmountable difficulties. How can I give up such a good opportunity?"

In the evening, Brigade Commander Lu came back and asked his wife, "How is it? Did you go to Jinxi to talk to his wife today?"

Last night, he told his wife to meet Lin Shu, help her adapt to life here, and understand her character to see if she really wants to live with Jinxi.

Teacher Ruan thought about their time together at noon today and smiled, "Very good, cheerful and considerate, and quick and decisive in doing things. I saw that she also respected Jinxi when she talked about him. They should be very loving, so you don't have to worry about Jinxi."

"What about her college entrance examination?"

Brigade Commander Lu asked again.

He frowned and said, "Since they are in a good relationship and the child is young, why does she have to take the college entrance examination and go to college? If she goes to college, what will happen to the child? Will Jinxi take care of him, or will he be thrown back to his hometown at such a young age?"

Teacher Ruan smiled and said, "This family has already arranged it. They said that they will take the child to Nanzhou City, and her mother-in-law will live there for a while to take care of the child. Later, the child will go to kindergarten, and the university classes are free, so she can take care of the child herself. I think the arrangement is very good. She will come here during the winter and summer vacations, and Jinxi can visit her during his vacation."

After saying this, Teacher Ruan was a little dazed.

She was thinking about Lin Shu's words, "It's not like there are any insurmountable difficulties. How can I give up such a good opportunity?"

In fact, she was a little tempted.

She heard Lin Shu talk about those test questions, and they were not that difficult.

If she prepared well for half a year, she might be able to pass the exam in the second half of the year.

...Lin Shu said that because the college entrance examination had been suspended for ten years, many people in their thirties and forties signed up for the exam.

Nanzhou University is close to Nanzhou Base, and it only takes more than half an hour to get there by car.

If she could also go thereWhile studying, she attends classes on weekdays, and can take her children to spend time with her on weekends. She returns to the border village during winter and summer vacations, which makes her spiritually and physically more fulfilled.

She also married the brigade commander Lu after graduating from high school, and it has been fifteen years now.

She has been following her husband for the past fifteen years, living in different bases.

Before, she had her children by her side, and she didn't feel anything when she was busy while taking care of them and teaching.

But since both children went to boarding school, her husband, as Lin Shu said, was busy and often disappeared for ten days or half a month, and sometimes he would go out for several months without coming home. She felt very uncomfortable living alone in this desolate mountain.

Also, her two children are in middle school, but because she got married early, she is actually only 33 years old now...but sometimes she feels as if her life has come to an end.

But if she goes to college again, she can start her life again...

She fell in love with him at first sight when they met, and then married him early and had children.

Although her life cannot be said to be unhappy, she actually has regrets in her heart. Teacher Ruan was stunned.

Brigade Commander Lu didn't notice. He frowned after hearing what she said before. He snorted and said, "She is just unstable! She makes Jinxi worry about Nanzhou. She might delay things at any time... If Jinxi hadn't been affected by her emotions this time, he wouldn't have been hurt..."

"Limin, what do you think about me signing up for the college entrance examination next year?"

Teacher Ruan interrupted him and said, "I think what Jinxi's wife said is right. Instead of staying in the border village, it's better to go to college and have your own life."

Brigade Commander Lu:...

Brigade Commander Lu thought he heard it wrong and said, "What did you say?"

Teacher Ruan felt relieved after saying it.

She smiled and said, "I said, how about I take the college entrance examination next year. I heard from Jinxi's wife that this time it is an emergency recruitment, and the enrollment is in winter. Normally, the enrollment is in September. The next exam will be in half a year. I have been interrupted for many years, so I have time to review well. Fortunately, Jinxi's wife is here now. She said she has all the information. If I want to review, she can help me mark the key points. If I have any questions, I can ask her."

After being stunned for a moment, Brigade Commander Lu finally understood what his wife was talking about, and then his face fell.

"What are you talking about!"

Brigade Commander Lu said with a fierce face, "What age are you? Why go to college! If you go to college, what will happen to your family? What will happen to the children?"

What age?

Is she very old? Teacher Ruan was not happy when she heard this, and frowned and said, "Why can't I study?"

"Aren't the children all in school? I've thought about this. The children are all in boarding schools. If I go to Nanzhou to study like Jinxi's wife, it will be more convenient. I can pick up the children on weekends to cook for them and take them out for a walk, instead of not seeing them for several months like now. I don't know if there are any problems over there, or if they are not studying well. I am always worried... Aren't you usually very busy at home? It won't affect me to go to Nanzhou to study at university. It's not far away."

Brigade Commander Lu...Brigade Commander Lu couldn't refute it.

But he felt that it was not right, it was not suitable!

This Jinxi's wife, who has only been here for one day, has even affected his wife!

What kind of person is this!

His wife was so gentle and virtuous, but after only being in contact with her for a whole afternoon, even the tone of her talking to him has changed!

If they get along for a long time, won't they rebel? !
