When the platoon commander returned from a family visit, the company commander mysteriously pulled me aside and said that he wanted to introduce me to someone. I was stunned for a moment, I didn't expect the company commander to have this idleness.
"Platoon commander, you're not too young, it's time to think about personal issues. The company commander said with a wicked smile.
"Company commander, I'm all focused on work now, how can I have the heart to fall in love. I hurriedly excused myself.
"Don't mind, I chose this object for you, and I guarantee your satisfaction. The company commander patted his chest and reassured.
Unable to resist the kindness of the company commander, I had to agree to meet first. Unexpectedly, this side made me meet a girl who made my heart flutter.
Her name is Xiaofang, and she is a distant relative of the company commander. That day, she was wearing a light blue dress, and when she smiled, her eyes were crooked, like crescent moons. We hit it off at first sight and had a great conversation.
However, it didn't take long for the happy days to come and conflict ensued.
That day, I was directing the soldiers on the training ground when I suddenly received a call from Xiaofang saying that her father was critically ill and that she was going home to take care of her. My heart tightened, and I hurriedly asked for leave to accompany her. However, the company commander did not agree.
"Platoon commander, you are the backbone of the troops, how can you just leave?" the company commander said solemnly.
"Company commander, Xiaofang's father is critically ill, and I have to accompany her. "I'm resolute.
"You're violating discipline!Where are you putting the honor of the troops?" the company commander slapped the table angrily.
I was stunned, I didn't expect the company commander to be so angry. I know he's doing it for my good, but I can't ignore Xiaofang. Just when I was in a dilemma, Xiaofang suddenly appeared on the training ground.
"Why are you here?" I asked, surprised.
"I didn't want to embarrass you, so I decided to stay with you. Xiao Fang had tears in her eyes, but she forced a smile.
I was moved to tears and hugged her tightly. At this time, the company commander came over, looked at us, and sighed: "Alas, you two young people, it's really worrying. ”
In the days that followed, Xiao Fang became a supernumerary member of our company. She not only cared about me in life, but also helped the soldiers wash clothes and cook, which won unanimous praise from everyone.
However, the good times were short-lived. One day, the company commander suddenly received an order from his superiors to urgently dispatch our company to carry out a special mission. I knew the danger of this mission, but I couldn't tell Xiaofang.
Before leaving, Xiaofang held my hand tightly, her eyes full of worry: "You must come back safely, I will wait for you." ”
I nodded heavily, turned and set out on my journey. In the course of our mission, we encountered many difficulties and even almost lost our lives. Whenever I am tired, I always think of Xiaofang's smiling face, which has become the motivation for me to persevere.
Finally, we have successfully completed our mission. When I returned with honor, Xiao Fang was already waiting at the door of the company. She threw herself into my arms, tears soaking through my uniform.
"You're finally back, and I'm so afraid of losing you. Xiaofang sobbed.
"Don't be afraid, I promised you to come back safely. I stroked her hair gently.
At this time, the company commander came over and said with a smile: "Congratulations, after this test, I believe that your feelings will be deeper." ”
Since then, Xiaofang and I have gone through countless ups and downs hand in hand, and finally entered the palace of marriage under the witness of the company commander. And our story has become more and more precious in the baptism of the years.
Life after marriage was not all smooth sailing, Xiaofang followed me to the barracks, and in the face of the difficult environment, she never complained. Her words are always warm and firm: "As long as I can be with you, I am willing to work hard and tired." ”
That day, the company commander came to me and said with a serious face: "Platoon commander, there is a difficult task for you to complete, and this is an opportunity to show the strength of our troops. ”
My heart tightened, knowing that this was another dangerous journey. I looked at Xiaofang's busy back, and my heart was mixed.
At night, when I was lying in bed, Xiaofang sensed my uneasiness: "What's wrong, is there anything on your mind?"
I hesitated, but decided to tell her, "The company commander gave me a mission that could be dangerous. ”
Xiao Fang was silent for a while, and then held my hand tightly: "No matter where you go, my heart is with you." You have to promise me that you must protect yourself. ”
The day of the mission is getting closer and closer, and I am working overtime to prepare, but I am always relieved that Xiaofang is not at ease. The night before leaving, Xiao Fang cut off a strand of hair, knitted it into a thin ring, and put it on my finger: "This is my heart, you carry it, just like I am by your side." ”
With tears in my eyes, I kissed her deeply.
The mission has begun, and it is a journey that spans thousands of miles, full of unknowns and challenges. In a dangerous environment, I always remind myself to be calm and brave. Whenever the night comes, I always look at the strands of hair on my fingers, imagine Xiaofang's smile, and that warmth has become my endless motivation.
In a sudden emergency, I was seriously injured in order to protect my comrades. At the moment of the coma, I seemed to see Xiao Fang's anxious face.
When I woke up, I found myself lying in the hospital, Xiaofang lying on the edge of the bed, her eyes red. Seeing me wake up, she hugged me tightly: "You scared me to death, you promised me, how can you not keep your word?"
I smiled and stroked her hair: "I'm sorry for worrying you." But what I promise you will do. ”
After a period of treatment, I recovered. Back in the company, the company commander gave me a thumbs up: "You have done a very good job in this mission, and I am proud of you." ”
I smiled slightly, but I knew in my heart that this honor did not belong to me alone, but also to Xiaofang's credit.
The days have returned to calm, and Xiao Fang is still busy in every corner of the barracks. We cherish each other's hard-won feelings even more, support each other, and move forward hand in hand.
Until one day, Xiaofang told me that she was pregnant. I was stunned, both surprised and nervous. Xiao Fang looked at me and smiled so happily: "We're going to be mom and dad." ”
I hugged her tightly, my heart filled with gratitude. This little life is the crystallization of our love and our hope for the future.
With the blessings of the company commander and comrades-in-arms, we ushered in the birth of a new life. Looking at Xiaofang's tired but happy smile, I knew that our story was still going on, but in a different way, deeper and more precious.
After the birth of a child, our lives become more fulfilling. Xiaofang has become a stay-at-home mother, and she takes care of the children while also taking care of the housework in the company. I feel sorry for her hard work, but I am also proud of her strength.
"Xiaofang, you have worked hard. "One night, I whispered to her.
She looked up, her eyes flashing with love: "For you and the baby, I do." ”
At that moment, I felt the warmth of home and understood the weight of responsibility.
Time flies, and the child grows up and begins to babble. Whenever I hear him call him "Daddy" indistinctly, my heart is filled with sweetness. The company commander often came to our house, and when he looked at the child, he would always smile and say, "This kid will definitely be a good soldier in the future." ”
Just when we all thought that life would go on peacefully, a sudden natural disaster shattered the peace. The company commander urgently summoned us, his face was serious: "This disaster relief mission is very arduous, we must set off immediately." ”
I looked at Xiaofang and the child, and I was very reluctant. Xiao Fang seemed to see through my thoughts, and she said firmly: "Go, the country and the people need you." We will wait for your safe return. ”
In those days in the disaster area, I led the soldiers to fight on the front line, and whenever I was tired, I thought of Xiaofang's encouragement and the child's innocent smiling face, and I had strength again.
The rescue mission was extremely difficult, and we were faced with a test of life and death. During a time to evacuate trapped people, I was buried under the rubble by a sudden aftershock to protect a child.
When I woke up, I found myself lying in a makeshift tent. Xiao Fang sat on the edge of the bed, her eyes full of worry and fear. Seeing me open my eyes, she held my hand tightly, and tears rolled down: "You scared me to death, promised me, you can't be fine." ”
I gently stroked her cheek: "I'm sorry to worry you again." But I promise you, I will come back safely. ”
This accident made me cherish my life and the people around me even more. After returning to the company, I decided to spend more time with my family because I knew that life is fragile and precious.
As the years passed, the children grew up and began to go to school. Xiao Fang, with the support of the company, also opened a commissary to provide some daily necessities for the soldiers. Our lives are ordinary, but they are full of happiness.
One day, the company commander came to our house, looked at the photos of the children growing up on the wall, and said with emotion: "Your family is really a role model, let us all see the warmth and strength of the family." ”
I smiled, my heart filled with gratitude. I know that whether it is facing the hardships of life or the challenges of work, with the support of Xiaofang and my children, I have the courage to move forward.
The story continues, and our lives shine with extraordinary light in the ordinary. Every sunrise and sunset, every gathering and parting, is a chapter we write together, precious and eternal.
As our children grow, many changes have taken place in our lives. After her child entered primary school, Xiaofang had more time to run her own commissary. She always treats every customer with enthusiasm, especially the soldiers of the company, and she always gives them the best price. Her kindness and helpful personality made the whole company full of respect for her.
One day, the company commander came to our house with a young officer. This officer is a recent graduate of the military academy and he is going to join our company. The company commander smiled and said to us, "This is the new platoon commander Li, you have to get along well in the future." ”
Platoon Commander Li looks young, but his eyes reveal firmness and confidence. He greeted us politely, and then turned to Xiao Fang: "Sister-in-law, please take care of me in the future." ”
Xiaofang responded with a smile: "No problem, we are all a big family, and it is appropriate to help each other." ”
From that day on, Platoon Commander Li became a member of our company. He was young, studious and quickly integrated into our team. He often came to our house, chatted with Xiaofang, and asked about some things in life. Xiaofang always answered him patiently and taught him how to handle some household chores.
One day, Platoon Commander Li suddenly came to me with a somewhat serious expression: "Platoon Commander, I have a request, I hope you can agree." ”
I looked at him and was a little puzzled: "You say, as long as I can help, I will do my best." ”
"I wanted to ask my sister-in-law to teach me how to cook, and I felt like I was bad at it. He said with some embarrassment.
I couldn't help laughing: "No problem, Xiaofang is a master in this regard." She'll definitely teach you well. ”
From that day on, Xiao Fang became Platoon Leader Li's cooking mentor. Whenever Platoon Leader Li had free time, he would come to our house and learn how to cook with Xiaofang. Their relationship gradually became intimate and became very good friends.
Time passed quickly, and Platoon Commander Li's performance in the company became better and better, not only did he have excellent military skills, but he also learned how to take care of himself, and even made a good dish. All these changes are inseparable from Xiaofang's teaching and help.
One day, the company commander found me and said with a smile: "Platoon commander, have you noticed that Platoon Commander Li has changed a lot recently?"
I smiled and replied, "Yes, he is becoming more and more mature, thanks to Xiaofang's teachings." ”
The company commander nodded in agreement: "That's right, you couple are really role models for our company." ”
Hearing the words of the company commander, my heart was filled with pride. I know that I will continue to work hard to contribute more to my family and company, both as a soldier and as a husband and father.
The story continues, and our lives, although ordinary, are full of warmth and happiness. Every day, we are writing our own chapter in our own way.
