Chapter 90 A Day in Life (2)

"Yeah..." He smiled and nodded, "I'm not afraid as long as you are here!"

The two of them went down the mountain, passed the old bridge, and when they came to their home, Xiao Zhi stopped, pulled Lin Huan's sleeve, and tugged it with a smile... motioning her to look at the children laughing and playing over there.

"This is my younger brother, his name is Shang Yong. Xiao Yong... Let's go, Sister Huan, let's go play with him!"

Lin Huan stopped where he was, somewhat hesitantly, and seemed hesitant to take another step.

"Sister Ahuan... don't be afraid of the well rope... believe me, don't be afraid." General Xiaozhi saw it and suddenly smiled. He still firmly pulled her sleeve and led her to the children.

"Hello, brother Qian Yanjun!" A little kid suddenly recognized Lin Huan and said, "Hello, big sister from Wangsheng Hall!"

The children gathered around Lin Huan and kept asking questions. Lin Huan also patiently answered them one by one. Xiao Zhi tilted his head and smiled, watching the stiff back of the person who was half squatting beside him slowly relax and become more relaxed. Slowly, he finally found the free and easy look when he was playing with himself and his friends on the street. He couldn't help but smile and felt happy.

“The big sister from Wangsheng Hall hasn’t appeared on the street often in recent years, but I’ve heard from mom and dad that she actually likes children very much.” Little Yong stood aside with his head tilted. He didn’t go up to ask questions, and only answered with a smile when a child he didn’t know asked about her.

"Are your parents... okay?" Xiaozhi asked Xiaoyong with a smile.

"My memory... is a little vague. There was a period of time when they were very sad because of the death of their eldest brother in the war. They often sighed and cried... and then they fell ill..." Xiaoyong's eyes turned red as he spoke.

"But now it seems there are more of them!" He pointed to a house not far away. "Look, Mom and Dad are sitting by the door drinking tea."

Lin Huan raised his head and looked towards the house. Sure enough, the elderly couple were sitting under the eaves, sipping tea from their cups with their heads down.

"Let's go and take a look." Lin Huan stood up with a smile, looked at Xiaozhi, turned around and walked towards the house.

"Uncle, aunt... Hello, I am Lin Huan." Lin Huan walked closer and bowed to the two old people sitting at the table.

Xiaozhi followed Lin Huan's example and said, "Uncle, aunt, hello... I am Xiaozhi's comrade-in-arms. I met Miss Lin Huan when I was sweeping Xiaozhi's grave on the top of the mountain..."

Mr. Shang raised his head and stared at Xiaozhi. He stood up and hugged the tall and straight young man who was different from three years ago.

"Thank you... Xiaohuan." Mr. Shang's voice was choked with tears, his eyes moistened, "Thank you for taking care of Xiaozhi. My husband and I both understand what happened back then. Things on the battlefield are out of control. It's just... just emotionally... it's hard for us to accept it. After all, the one who died was my son, after all, a piece of flesh that fell from the child's mother... He was my darling, and the pride of my heart... I just hope that Xiaohuan can understand the heartache that my husband and I felt at that time."

Lin Huan bowed in return.

"Uncle and aunt, I can certainly understand your sadness at that time... so..." Lin Huan choked for a moment and couldn't hold back her tears. Mr. Shang shook his head, smiled, patted Lin Huan's shoulder, and helped her up.

"But... now, we finally have a chance to thank you. Thank you. But don't worry, don't think too much, we are fine now. Xiaoyong is also very cute, you should play with him more, and you will understand after you get to know each other better."

Xiaozhi snickered at the side: "Uncle, no need to thank me. We all understand."

Xiaozhi's mother shed tears, but her eyes were full of smiles.

"Although I have never seen you... but you look very familiar, like Xiaoyong's brother, which makes me feel very close." Madam Shang touched Xiaozhi's head lovingly, "Young man, can you tell your auntie, what is your name?"

"I am here to accompany the commander-in-chief... You don't need to care about my name." Xiaozhi's eyes were red, and he smiled, "Auntie... You just need to know that Xiaozhi loves you very much and misses you very much... That's enough."
