Chapter 198 Hero Medal
Chapter 198 Hero Medal
"Third brother is still a hero?"
The students gathered around and approached An Zhengming, curiously looking at the medal on his chest and asking questions.
"What achievements has Third Brother made? Can you tell us about it?"
"Third brother, I admire soldiers the most. I failed to pass the military academy exam. How about we take a photo together?"
An Zhengming was not displeased with the crowd of students. He just said politely: "Sorry, I came here specifically to see my sister today. It's not convenient for me to talk to my classmates."
He looked at Anyuan: "Xiaoyuan, are you going to the library?"
How can Anyuan still be in the mood to go to the library?
She hugged the third brother's arm and smiled: "I'm not going, let's go home and have a big dinner."
At the same time, she puffed up her cheeks and threatened the onlookers: "You are not allowed to shoot and talk randomly, be careful of viruses on your phone."
Speaking of this matter, the classmates who were watching remembered the unbearable mass poisoning and death of mobile phones and computers, and they all stepped aside and deleted the photos.
An Yuan pulled An Zhengming and left. At the same time, she sent a message to the family, informing them that the third brother was back and was now in her school.
After walking for a while, she let go of Third Brother's arm and asked him: "Third Brother, why didn't you tell your family in advance when you came back? Then we could pick you up at the station."
In fact, her third brother officially retired from the military at the end of September.
But her third brother did not go home right away but stayed in the local area, helping the old, weak, sick and disabled to repair their houses, harvest crops, sell agricultural products, etc. He also used all his retirement allowance to buy sheets and medicine for the lonely elderly people in the village, and for the primary school. Computers, buying books, etc. took more than a month to come back.
An Zhengming smiled: "You are all very busy, and I am a grown man. I really don't want you to come to the station to pick me up. Moreover, the transportation in the mountains is inconvenient. Even I am not sure when I will be able to return to Nancheng, so I didn't notify you in advance." .”
Anyuan felt a little moved again.
Her third brother has not been home for three years. When he came back this time, he must have come directly to the school to find her as soon as he left the station...
She sniffed slightly: "Third brother, my family is very happy to know that you are back. Let's go to a restaurant."
An Zhengming shook his head: "I want to go to the hospital to visit my grandparents first, and then go home."
An Yuan was stunned: "Okay..."
Just then, her cell phone rang.
Called from Anyang.
An Yuan clicked on the speakerphone: "Hello?"
"Xiao Yuan, is Third Brother at your place?" Anyang's voice was so loud that it almost shattered her cell phone. "I'm running to your school now. You wait for me in the parking lot. I want to see you right away." Third brother!"
Anyuan: "I know, I know, run slower and don't hit anyone."
She could hear Anyang's breathing while running.
Anyang continued to shout: "Is Third Brother here? I want to talk to Third Brother."
Anyuan: "What are you anxious about? Come over and talk about it later. I'll take my brother's call first."
She cut off Anyang's call and answered her elder brother's call.
An Jingwei's voice was calm, but he spoke a little too fast: "I'm driving to Nancheng now. I'll arrive in three hours. You guys need to eat first, so you don't have to wait for me."
An Yuan knew that her eldest brother was steady in his work and there was no need to worry about him driving too fast or too hastily. She just told him: "Well, the third brother wants to visit his grandparents first. I will send him there now."
Then An Weiguo and his wife also called her and said that the restaurant would not accept guests after [-] o'clock that evening and that it would be reserved for the whole family to celebrate together.
After An Yuan finished answering the call from his family, the two of them slowly walked to the parking lot.
As soon as they got into the car, Anyang arrived panting, rushed into the car like a calf, hugged An Zhengming's neck from the back seat of the car and shouted: "Third brother, you are finally back! If you don't come back, Hua'er Thank you very much."
An Zhengming smiled and touched his head with his backhand: "Congratulations on becoming a professional tennis player. When you are free some other time, you must teach me how to play tennis."
"That's a must!" Anyang said happily, "We agreed, let's go to our club to play together on weekends."
Several people walked to the hospital chatting and laughing.
On the way, An Zhengming went to the International Hotel to buy old cakes that the elderly loved, and then went to an old shop to buy fish porridge and some side dishes that the elderly loved.
In order to prevent the elderly from being overly happy or crying too much, An Yuan had called the nursing staff before leaving and asked the nursing staff to tell the elderly the news in advance so that the elderly could be mentally prepared.
When An Zhengming arrived at the ward, the two elderly people were already supporting each other and standing at the door, staring at each other.
The moment they saw their grandson, the two old men's eyes turned red, they called "Zhengming" hoarsely, and tremblingly stepped forward to greet him.
An Zhengming walked quickly to them and saluted them respectfully: "Grandpa and grandma, I'm back."
Then he knelt down, kowtowed to the old man three times, and said in a hoarse voice: "Zhengming has not returned for three years, and failed to fulfill his filial piety for three years. Zhengming is unfilial."
The two old men couldn't help but shed tears and reached out to help him.
"Silly boy, your loyalty to the country is your filial piety to your family! Get up quickly, grandpa can't see you kneeling down!"
"You are a hero, the pride of my grandparents, and the pride of the An family. If you say such things, my grandma will feel distressed."
When the nurse saw them crying, she quickly turned up the volume of the TV that was playing the sketch, and reminded them with a smile: "Grandpa An, Grandma An, it's such a good thing that your grandson is back. Let's laugh, don't cry!"
Both old people's eyesight is not very good.
Especially my grandma's eyes. After surgery, she could only see clearly within a range of about five meters. If she cried too much, her eyes would be damaged.
They also understood this and tried to control their emotions. They wiped their tears with a towel and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, yes, this is a good thing. Let's laugh, smile more."
An Zhengming and Anyang helped the elderly people into the ward, and while feeding them porridge, they talked about everything they had experienced in the past three years.
An Zhengming's mission in the army was likely to be confidential, and everyone knew it tacitly. They didn't ask him what he did in the army. They only asked whether he was in the army hard and tired, whether he was eating well, and whether he was injured. , What are your future plans?
When it comes to future plans, An Zhengming said: "I plan to stay at home for a while, help my mother take care of the restaurant, and help my elder brother grow vegetables and raise pigs. I will come over to accompany you when I have time."
"In the future, I may open a boxing gym, a security company, or an auto repair shop with my comrades. I haven't decided yet."
As far as An Yuan knew, her third brother could definitely stay in the army and become an officer with his academic qualifications, conditions and achievements.
But her third brother, on the pretext of returning home to fulfill his filial piety, gave up the opportunity to go to the military academy for further studies and to be promoted directly, and simply retired from the army.
Speaking of which, her third brother didn't know that her eldest brother was deceived into marriage, and he hadn't met Xiaojiu himself.
