Chapter 632 The weary bird returns to its nest!!
At daybreak, people from Heiyun Village and the surrounding villages were waiting one after another.
The return of the Tiger Brigade touched the hearts of many people.
"I'll be back soon...I'll be back..."
Zhang Yunxiu came out of the kitchen, murmuring to herself. She couldn't sleep for the rest of the night.
There are many people like her in Heiyun Village.
She was holding a bowl covered with something in her hand and walking quickly, but she could clearly feel her heartbeat with every step.
On both sides of the road outside the gate of Heiyun Village, there were already many people standing in anticipation, their eyes always looking towards the north.
Children, comrades-in-arms, husbands, or old fathers are waiting, waiting for the return of those they long for.
Zhang Yunxiu stood outside the gate of Heiyun Village, just able to overlook the mountainside, her legs trembling.
"Yunxiu, the food in your arms must be what the baby likes." Zhang Yunxiu had just stood still when a voice spoke beside her.
"Hmm..." Zhang Yunxiu looked at the figure beside her. She was a woman who helped out in Heiyun Village like herself. She was five years older than herself. Her temples were already white and her face was covered with scars of time.
Her three sons are all in the Tiger Brigade.
"Hey, I don't know if my three sons can come back!!"
Like Zhang Yunxiu, Meng Ying also held three red eggs in her hands, as well as three sachet-like amulets that she had sewn herself.
She said this, but like many others, her eyes were always looking into the distance at this time.
"It will definitely happen. The Kwantung Army has been repelled. It's a great victory in the north..." Zhang Yunxiu used words to hide her inner uneasiness, but beads of sweat had already appeared on her forehead.
Wrinkled hands held the minjieer in a porcelain bowl.
The Tiger Guards Brigade continued to receive reports of victories in the three northeastern provinces, but the number of nameplates and wounded soldiers sent back was greater than ever before.
Searching on the list and asking questions among the wounded have become common practices for people like her.
There was a commotion, and a flag appeared in the distance, which instantly shocked her expression. The military uniform she had sewn herself appeared in her sight, which made her heart flutter.
"The Tiger Brigade is back!!"
"came back!"
"Open the door!"
Waves of shouts spread throughout the Black Cloud Village, and all eyes were focused on the mountainside. The neat military column was heading towards the Black Cloud Village, but the hesitation in their eyes did not diminish.
In an instant, Zhang Yunxiu and Meng Ying straightened their backs and stood on tiptoe to look at the returning troops.
The momentum is like a rainbow, it means that I have been waiting for my beloved to return for a long time.
Zhang Yunxiu and Meng Mu's eyes kept scanning, over and over again.
In the team, when they saw the figure they wanted to see, their faces became more and more nervous.
Many people were already standing there hugging each other. Searching among more than 100,000 soldiers was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
The thin and somewhat hunched figure was always standing on tiptoe, searching among the crowd.
Just at this moment, a tall and thin soldier with black gauze wrapped around his arm walked straight towards Meng Ying.
Meng Ying's heart skipped a beat, and his tiptoes went limp. It was as if something in his heart had plummeted to the bottom at that moment.
"Mom, it's us who didn't take good care of the third child..." With a thud, the two soldiers knelt down in front of Meng Ying and kowtowed three times.
dong dong dong...
The sound broke a string, and his eyes became much emptier, but his hands tightly grasped the three amulets he had sewn.
Zhang Yunxiu supported Meng Ying and took a stumbling step... Her bloodshot old eyes were already red. She took the nameplate and held it in her arms.
"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back..." Meng Ying held the nameplate tightly, his throat felt like it was stuck by thousands of thorns, and he murmured softly.
She had sewn the nameplate herself, and there was no joy in her suppressed voice.
Zhang Yunxiu was silent, looking into the distance, searching again and again among the crowd...
As time passed, every second was like a knife, cutting her flesh, making her inner confusion and anxiety worse.
Until a figure appeared in the team in the distance, and the tears could no longer be controlled and burst out in an instant.
She seemed to have grown taller, or perhaps it was because her eyes were wet with tears, making her vision blurry.
But when she saw the medical bag on her waist, the long gun on her shoulder, and the graceful figure standing in front of her, she was speechless.
"mother..."
With a call, Zhang Yunxiu hugged Li Youxin tightly in her arms.
"Mom, it hurts a little..." Li Youxin patted Zhang Yunxiu's shoulder gently and said soothingly.
"Okay... okay... okay." Zhang Yunxiu seemed to have thought of something:
"The minjie you like to eat, go home... Yes, go home first..." Zhang Yunxiu spoke quickly, and his hands never left Li Youxin.
The stone that was suppressed in my heart, the panic, worry, uneasiness... were completely vented out at this moment.
For countless days and nights, the hunched figure sitting on the bench gazing towards the north completely erupted at this moment...
Meetings and hugs were happening everywhere in Heiyun Village. When their expectations were responded to and the long-awaited figure appeared in front of them, all their waiting and anxiety turned into excitement and shouts of hugging.
When the soldiers of the Tiger Guard Brigade returned, the entire Black Cloud Village instantly became busy.
Some people go home, some go home on behalf of others, and some send them home.
"Boss, Liao Guanghua and several brothers are in that position. These are their nameplates." Lu Zhenxing's face was heavy.
In his hand, there was a nameplate. Although he was tall and strong, Lu Zhenxing felt that this small nameplate was extremely heavy in his hand.
It was even so heavy that he could hardly lift it.
"Yes...it's a good location." Xu Jingqiang stared at the Black Cloud Village that seemed to be rooted in the mountains and murmured.
Bell~
A breeze blew and the wind chimes rang.
The breeze blew on Xu Jingqiang's shoulders, and the ringing of the bell made his heart move slightly, and those past memories flooded into his mind.
Every gang fight in Pudong ended with him, the Battle of Jincheng, the Battle of Shengjing...
"Boss, when will you take us to the northernmost part of the three northeastern provinces for winter fishing?"
"I killed seven devils in the battle of Jincheng. Can you tell us what you said to the brigade commander at the headquarters?"
"Boss, I've already chosen a spot on Fengling Mountain, and the brothers have all agreed that if we can't come back one day, we can stay there..."
"Can we return to the three northeastern provinces? Can we really go home?"
Voices appeared in his mind one after another, and Xu Jingqiang felt that he owed too many promises.
Now that the three northeastern provinces are back, he has fulfilled some of his promises, but some people are no longer there.
The brothers in Pudong are still waiting for him to come back...
Xu Jingqiang had a lot to say, but as he listened to the sound of wind chimes, he swallowed it back.
Lu Zhenxing, Guo Yunming and others stood behind him, watching quietly.
As gang members, most of them are at home all over the world, but having followed the brigade commander all the way, they have long regarded the Tiger Guard Brigade as their home.
Now, it’s just that the soul has returned to its hometown.
But he fulfilled the biggest promise.
The three northeastern provinces are back!
He took his brother and went home!
"Moving forward..."
Xu Jingqiang murmured in a low voice, "Brother, you have found a place to go, Fengling Mountain." In the distance, you can vaguely see a figure sitting in the mountain.
But the distance was too far, and he could only see it vaguely, but in the end he still walked forward...
