After this battle, go home and get married [Interstellar]

Yan Xueshan had never chosen a partner specially, he had always accepted whoever was assigned by the army.

Moreover, as his service time becomes longer and more and more partners die, other soldiers will say that he is tough and can overcome his partners.

He thought that no melee fighter would dare to partner with him, so he assigned a foolish young man to him.

Yan Xueshan pondered for a moment.

Also just for a moment.

Forget it, don't think about it, it doesn't matter.

Seeing him thinking for a while, Arthur raised his head again, waiting for Yan Xueshan to ask questions, and was planning to tease him.

But Yan Xueshan said: "When we were partners, I never heard you talk about your sister. You and her must be very good siblings, right?"

Arthur hesitated for a moment, his heart suddenly sour and soft.

The person he likes is such a person.Everyone said that Yan Xueshan was indifferent and incomprehensible, but he was the only one who knew how gentle Yan Xueshan was.

It has nothing to do with mental disorders, it doesn't need to be deliberately created, and it is the tenderness revealed from his soul.

Arthur pretended to talk about the past plainly: "It's okay, in fact, my sister and I really can't say how close we are."

"When I was very young, maybe three or four years old, I liked to play with her buttocks. Children like to play with older children. She is not a lady-like girl, she especially dislikes me, and only when she wants to command me Be nice to me when you run errands for her."

"She likes to make me cry for fun, scares me all the time, and often fights with me for grabbing things and watching TV."

"She would sneak something she didn't like into my bowl during meals, and she would always trick me into eating snacks."

"Later, when I was a teenager, I had my own friend. I went out with my classmates, played football, played baseball, and came home covered in mud. Every time I was scolded by her."

"In our family, during my rebellious period, I didn't even dare to listen to my father, and I wasn't afraid of him at all. I was afraid of my sister."

"But she is different from me. She is closer to her father. She is the eldest daughter in the family. When she was born, her mother was sick, and her father took her by her side to take care of her. She also made a cradle in the mech training room. She Standing up while leaning on the fence, seeing the action of the mecha, squatting and giggling."

Speaking of this, Arthur laughed: "She has been a fan of mechs since she was a child, and she always pulls me and insists on forcing me to listen to the information she collects. It's annoying to death."

Yan Xueshan listened quietly, without revealing that kind of pitiful eyes, just as a bystander, listening carefully without any attitude.

Seeing him stop, he asked in a timely manner, "What happened next?"

Arthur continued:

"My mother actually didn't want me or my sister to join the army. She just wanted us to stay in a safe place in our hometown and grow up safely. She never expected us to inherit our father's career."

"My sister went to sign up against her will, and she was not informed until the day before departure. She went to her father and asked him to use the prerogative of the president to cancel her quota, but her father refused, and they had a big fight. "

Yan Xueshan remembered it, because it was a long time ago, so it is more difficult to recall.

Probably on the day he graduated, he had indeed heard that there was a very powerful teacher who was a genius girl who was born out of nowhere. Unfortunately, she was like a shooting star that fell before it was completely burned.

She was strangled while still a rookie.

Yan Xueshan couldn't guarantee that if he encountered several terrible sieges when he first served in the army, he would definitely be able to escape successfully, no, it was very likely that he would fail.

Therefore, he didn't think he was very powerful. Among the dead soldiers, there were definitely people who were more powerful than him. He was just highlighted by the survivor effect.

If others can survive, they must be more legendary than him.

For example, when his adoptive father took him to play with a sniper rifle for the first time, he taught him the essentials, but he missed two of the three shots, and only hit one shot, which was still on the sidelines.

But the adoptive father rubbed his head and praised him happily: "My Xiaoxue is so powerful, he can hit it with the first shot. Maybe our Xiaoxue is a genius."

He believed it to be true, thinking that he was really good, but after thinking about it, he realized that it was just words to coax children.

He doesn't consider himself exceptionally talented.

He was only able to be calmer than others because of his illness, and he also worked harder in training because of survival.

Yan Xueshan remembered what happened when he learned the news of his adoptive father's death.

He was still in high school at the time, and it was time to think about where to go.

When his adoptive father communicated with him, he said: "I will discuss it with you next time when I am on vacation. I have already researched several schools for you. Then we will choose the one you like together. ... You don't have to worry about tuition fees, you will be admitted. Just read it, I can always get money. Hahaha."

That was the last time they spoke.

Arthur just happened to say a similar passage: "The last time I talked to my sister, we even had an argument, and she gave me the latest headphones I bought, and I asked her to return them, and she just borrowed them with a smiley face. , next time."

"Later, I sorted out her relics for burial and put the pair of headphones in together."

"It was stupid when I was young, and I couldn't imagine that many things would end one day. If I could do it again, I would definitely not quarrel with her, but tell her: 'Okay, sister, if you like it, I will Sending you off.'"

"After several years, I thought, if I could see her spirit, she must not be depressed."

Arthur imagined, and said with a smile, "Now that I am older than her, maybe she will be proud to say to me: Look, your sister and I will always be young and beautiful."

Yan Xueshan said: "She is really an interesting person. It would be great if I could meet her once."

Arthur nodded: "Well, she must like you too."

In the end, Arthur said: "As I said, I never started learning mechs because I liked it. At that time, I was just a child who didn't know the heights of the sky and the earth, blinded by hatred. Until later, when I saw your operation, I It was the first time that I felt from the bottom of my heart that driving a mecha can be so pleasing to the eye, like another art of fighting."

"Now, I can say that I love being a teacher."

Probably because of talking about these past events.

Yan Xueshan also remembered that there were several relics of her adoptive father beside her.

The first thing Yan Xueshan did when he moved to the farm was not to be busy with farming, but to move the ashes of his adoptive father from the cemetery.

He built a new tomb on a hillside with the best scenery on the farm, and planted a banyan tree next to it, so that when he grows up, he can shelter his tombstone from wind and rain.

He remembered it was in the study.

Yan Xueshan dug out his adoptive father's diary when he was in the military. He had read it before, but it was more than ten years ago.

The paper on the inside pages has turned yellow and worn out, so you have to be careful when you turn them over for fear of breaking them.

Just light a desk lamp.

He sat in a cloud of bright lights and looked at this notebook. Not only the data, but also a stick figure on the corner of each page. emotion.

Yan Xueshan couldn't help flipping through the pages until the last page.

stop.

On the last page, the adoptive father wrote a sentence with a strong and gentle pen:

【To my son Yan Xueshan】

【Fame is not a plant that grows on mortal soil①, you are not mortal soil, whether you like it or not. 】

the next day.

Yan Xueshan contacted Arthur so that Arthur could reply to Dr. Brandon.

He accepted a part-time job as a mech test pilot.
