The train slowly drove out of the platform, and Li Jianguo sat by the window, looking at the familiar scenery outside the window, and an indescribable excitement surged in his heart. After he was promoted to a cadre, this was the first opportunity to go home to visit his family. His gaze swept over the carriage and inadvertently landed on the seat opposite, where sat a woman in military uniform, who was looking intently at the medical book in her hand.
"Hello, my name is Li Jianguo, and I am also going home to visit relatives. Li Jianguo smiled and stretched out his hand.
Zhao Xiaomei raised her head, closed the book, and shook it back politely, "Hello, I'm Zhao Xiaomei, and I'm a military doctor." ”
This is how the conversation between the two began. Li Jianguo asked curiously: "The work of a military doctor must be very hard, right?"
Zhao Xiaomei replied with a smile: "It's really busy, but being able to help people in need makes it all worth it." ”
Li Jianguo nodded in agreement, and then shared his work, "I work in the government department, and I have recently been promoted because of my work performance, and this is the first time I have gone home to visit relatives. ”
A hint of appreciation flashed in Zhao Xiaomei's eyes, "That's really congratulations, it's not easy to do it, it means that you must be doing a good job." ”
Li Jianguo smiled modestly, "Fortunately, it's all the support and help of my colleagues." By the way, what do you medics do in normal times?"
Zhao Xiaomei began to talk about her daily work, including medical assistance in the military and medical care in the local area. Li Jianguo listened with relish, and the conversation between the two gradually deepened, from work to their respective families and lives.
As the train continues to move forward, the scenery outside the window is constantly changing, and the atmosphere inside the carriage is gradually becoming more harmonious. Li Jianguo said with emotion: "Now the country is developing so fast, every time I go home, I can see new changes. ”
Zhao Xiaomei nodded, "Yes, I feel the same way." However, changing too quickly can sometimes lead to problems, such as the gap between urban and rural areas, and the conflict between old and new ideas......"
Li Jianguo was deeply touched, "Indeed, when I go home this time, I also want to see what I can do for my hometown." ”
The dialogue between the two is sometimes mixed with memories of the past and longing for the future. Time passed imperceptibly, and the train gradually approached Li Jianguo's hometown station.
"Jianguo, this is my contact information. Zhao Xiaomei took out a note from the pocket of her military uniform and handed it to Li Jianguo, "If you have a chance in the future, I hope to meet again." ”
Li Jianguo took the note and said gratefully: "Certainly, Xiaomei, thank you for chatting with me for so long." ”
The train slowly stopped on the platform, and Li Jianguo stood up and prepared to get off. He looked back at Zhao Xiaomei, and an inexplicable warmth swelled in his heart. The train started again, carrying Zhao Xiaomei and Li Jianguo's respective dreams, and continued to move forward.
The bumps in the train didn't seem to affect the conversation between the two, but added to the comfort of the journey. Li Jianguo opened the conversation box and began to talk about his work achievements and longing for his hometown.
"Xiaomei, do you know that I am the youngest in our unit this time. Li Jianguo said with a hint of pride, "I have been working hard to bring more changes to my hometown." ”
Zhao Xiaomei listened carefully, her eyes showing admiration, "That's really great, your hometown must be proud of you." Although I am in the army, I also want to contribute in my own way. ”
Li Jianguo asked curiously: "Is there any special story in the work of military doctors?"
Zhao Xiaomei pondered for a moment, and then began to narrate: "Once, our troops were training in the field, and a soldier was accidentally injured, and the situation was urgent. Our medical team immediately treated him on the spot and finally saved his leg. At that moment, I deeply felt the responsibility and glory of being a military doctor. ”
Li Jianguo listened attentively and nodded again and again, "Your work is too important, the military doctor is the life guardian of the soldiers." ”
During the conversation between the two, Zhao Xiaomei also shared her vision for the future, "I hope to continue my studies, improve my medical skills, and serve more people in the future." ”
Li Jianguo nodded, "Further study is a good thing, knowledge changes fate." By the way, what are your plans for the future?"
Zhao Xiaomei smiled slightly, "I hope to make achievements in the field of military medicine, and at the same time, I also want to have the opportunity to study abroad and see different medical systems." ”
Li Jianguo agreed: "The experience of studying abroad must be very valuable and can broaden your horizons. ”
As the conversation deepened, the two began to discuss the topic of personal growth. Li Jianguo sighed: "On the road of personal growth, there will always be many challenges and choices, but I believe that as long as you stick to your beliefs, you can find your own path." ”
Zhao Xiaomei nodded, "Yes, I think so too." Everyone's growth path is unique, and the important thing is to keep learning and improving. ”
As the train moved on, the conversation between the two drew to a close. Li Jianguo looked at his watch and realized that he was about to arrive at his hometown, "Xiaomei, I'm almost there." It's been a pleasure to have such an in-depth exchange with you, and I hope we can keep in touch. ”
Zhao Xiaomei smiled, "Me too, Jianguo." Your hometown must be beautiful, and if I have the chance, I would like to visit your hometown too. ”
The conversation between the two faded away amid the roar of the train, but they both left a deep impression on each other's hearts. Li Jianguo stood up and prepared to pack his luggage, while Zhao Xiaomei quietly looked out the window, her heart full of infinite reverie for the future.
As the roar of the train gradually became calmer, Li Jianguo realized that the station in his hometown was close at hand. He began to pack his bags and prepare to get out of the car. At this time, he noticed that Zhao Xiaomei on the other side seemed to be a little uneasy, her fingers tapped lightly on the table, her eyes flickered, as if she was hesitating about something.
"Xiaomei, what's wrong with you? Is there something wrong?" asked Li Jianguo with concern.
Zhao Xiaomei raised her head, took a deep breath, and seemed to have made up her mind, "Jianguo, I... I have a reluctant request. ”
Li Jianguo stopped what he was doing and looked at her seriously, "You said, as long as I can help." ”
Zhao Xiaomei took out a neatly folded note from the inner pocket of her military uniform and handed it to Li Jianguo, "This is my contact information, and... There are still some things that I want to say to you, but I don't know how to say them. ”
Li Jianguo took the note, feeling a little confused, but he didn't ask more, just nodded, "I'll read it carefully, Xiaomei." ”
A trace of gratitude flashed in Zhao Xiaomei's eyes, "Thank you, Jianguo." Maybe... Maybe one day you'll understand. ”
The train slowly drove into the platform, and Li Jianguo stood up and prepared to get off. He turned to Zhao Xiaomei and said, "Xiaomei, it's nice to meet you, I hope we can meet again." ”
Zhao Xiaomei smiled and nodded, "It will definitely be, Jianguo." Take care. ”
Li Jianguo walked off the train with doubts and Zhao Xiaomei's note. The wind on the platform ruffled his hair, but his heart was unusually calm. He opened the note and saw a few lines of Juan Xiu's handwriting written on it: "Jianguo, there are some words that I can't say, so I can only write to you." Your hometown is beautiful, but perhaps, it is not what you think it is for you. Be careful, there may be some truths that you need to discover for yourself. ”
Li Jianguo clenched the note, and an inexplicable uneasiness surged in his heart. He looked back at the train, only to see Zhao Xiaomei's figure gradually disappearing away and disappearing at the end of the carriage. He knew that while this journey was over, another had just begun.
As soon as Li Jianguo stepped into the house, he felt a strange atmosphere. The furnishings in the house seem to have changed, and even the air is filled with an indescribable heaviness. His mother sat on the couch with a hint of dodging in her eyes, while his father remained silent.
"Mom, Dad, I'm back. What's wrong at home?" Li Jianguo put down his luggage and asked with concern.
The mother opened her mouth, as if to say something, but swallowed it back. The father sighed, got up and patted Li Jianguo on the shoulder, "Child, there are some things that you still don't know." ”
Li Jianguo's heart tightened, and he thought of the note that Zhao Xiaomei gave him. He decided not to rush to ask questions first, but chose to be silent, but he was secretly thinking about it in his heart.
At night, Li Jianguo sat alone in his room, holding the note tightly in his hand. He read the confusing words over and over again, and the uneasiness in his heart grew stronger. He decided to go to the village chief early the next morning to find out the situation.
The next day, Li Jianguo came to the village chief's house. The village chief is a kind old man who has always praised Li Jianguo's achievements.
"Village Chief, when I came back this time, I found that something was wrong at home. Do you know what's going on?" asked Li Jianguo straight to the point.
The village chief was silent for a moment, and then sighed, "Jianguo, there are some things that the people in the village don't want to mention. But since you ask, I'll tell you. Your father sold the family's land in order to support you, and now the land policy in the village has changed, and your father regrets it. ”
Li Jianguo was stunned, he didn't expect the truth to be like this. He felt a pang of guilt, and at the same time was surprised by Zhao Xiaomei's foresight.
Back home, Li Jianguo found his father, and the two had an in-depth conversation.
"Dad, why didn't you tell me earlier?" Li Jianguo's voice trembled slightly.
The father shook his head, "Son, I don't want to affect your work. Besides, it's my own choice. ”
Li Jianguo clenched his fists, and he decided to do something for his family. He began to reach out to his colleagues in the government to learn about the policies and find solutions to the problem.
A few days later, Li Jianguo convened a family meeting. He pulled out a plan detailing how he could use the government's poverty alleviation policies to help his family get back on their feet.
"Mom, Dad, I'm sure we'll get through this. Li Jianguo said firmly.
The parents looked at Li Jianguo, their eyes full of hope. They believe that as long as Li Jianguo is here, there is hope for this family.
Time flies like a white horse, and in the blink of an eye, Li Jianguo not only successfully helped his family solve the land problem, but also established a deep friendship with Zhao Xiaomei. The two are working hard in their respective fields and contributing to the development of their hometown.
One day, a big party was held in the hometown, inviting everyone who contributed to the hometown. Li Jianguo and Zhao Xiaomei were invited, and they returned to this place full of memories together.
At the party, the villagers warmly welcomed them and thanked them for everything they had done for their hometown. Li Jianguo and Zhao Xiaomei were invited to speak on stage to share their experiences and feelings.
Li Jianguo stood on the stage and said with emotion: "Over the years, my deepest feeling is that no matter where we go, our hometown will always be our roots. I'm glad to be able to use my power to help make my hometown better. ”
Zhao Xiaomei continued: "Yes, each of us should do our part for the development of our hometown. I am also honored to be able to witness and participate in this process with the founding of the country. ”
There was a round of applause from the audience, and the villagers were moved by their words. After the party, Li Jianguo and Zhao Xiaomei walked on the country road together, reminiscing about the past.
"Xiaomei, do you remember that time we met on the train?" asked Li Jianguo with a smile.
Zhao Xiaomei nodded, "Of course I remember, it was the most unforgettable trip of my life." ”
The two looked at each other and smiled, and continued on their way. The moonlight sprinkled on them, illuminating the way home, and also illuminating the deep attachment to their hometown in their hearts.
"Jianguo, you see, how much my hometown has changed. Zhao Xiaomei pointed to the newly built hospital and school in the distance.
Li Jianguo nodded, "Yes, this is all the result of our joint efforts." I believe that as long as we don't give up, the future of our hometown will be brighter. ”
As night fell, the laughter and laughter of the party gradually faded away, but the friendship between Li Jianguo and Zhao Xiaomei, as well as their love for their hometown, were like the lights in this night, always warm and bright.
