In 2010, I graduated from military school and was assigned to a remote unit. At that time, my heart was full of pride and ambition, and I only wanted to make a career in the army. But just as I was throwing myself into the hot barracks, my comrades-in-arms began to worry about my life's work.
"Xiao Li, look, our resident Sister Zhang has a niece who is very smart, and she is a natural pair with you!" One day, my comrade-in-arms Xiao Wang told me mysteriously.
I glared at him, smiled and said, "Come on, how can I be in love now?" I'm here to do a career in the army. ”
Xiao Wang shook his head and sighed: "Hey, I said Xiao Li, why are you suffering?" Life is short, and being happy in time is the right way. Don't wait until you're old, you can't regret it! ”
I patted him on the shoulder and said seriously, "Xiao Wang, I know that you are for my good, but I really don't have the heart to do so now." When I have a successful career, I will naturally consider these things. ”
In this way, I rejected the kindness of my comrades. However, they didn't give up and introduced me to people every once in a while. It bothered me, but it didn't bother.
One day, a female soldier named Xiaofang came to the army. She was beautiful and pleasant, and her personality was lively and cheerful, which immediately attracted my attention. But I told myself that I had come to the army to do a career, and I couldn't be distracted by my feelings.
But fate played tricks on people, and Xiao Fang was assigned to our company. Now, I have to face her.
"Xiao Li, what do you think of Xiao Fang?" Xiao Wang came to test me again.
I glared at him and said angrily, "It's good, what's wrong?" ”
Xiao Wang smiled weirdly: "I think you two are a good match, or I'll help you match?" ”
I hurriedly waved my hand: "Don't, don't mess around." As soon as Xiaofang came, you caused trouble for her. ”
In this way, I have been rejecting the "kindness" of my comrades-in-arms. However, as time went by, I found that Xiaofang was indeed a nice girl, she not only cared about her comrades, but also often helped us solve difficulties in life.
One day, I couldn't help but say to Xiao Wang: "Xiao Wang, do you think Xiao Fang is interesting to me?" ”
Xiao Wang's eyes widened, and he said with a smile: "Haha, you have finally opened your mind!" I can see that Xiaofang is interesting to you. You, don't pretend, hurry up and pursue her! ”
I hesitated for a moment, then made up my mind: "Okay, I'll listen to you." ”
With the help of my comrades-in-arms, I began my pursuit of Xiaofang. After a lot of hard work, I finally won Xiaofang's heart.
However, just as our relationship was growing, the troops suddenly received an order to send me on a difficult mission. I know that this mission is fraught with danger, but I can't back down.
Before leaving, I found Xiao Wang and said to him, "Xiao Wang, if I can't come back from this mission, you must help me take care of Xiao Fang." ”
Xiao Wang's eyes widened, and he said excitedly: "Xiao Li, what are you talking about!" You'll be back safely! We will wait for you, when you come back and marry Xiaofang! ”
I smiled and nodded, then turned and set out on my journey.
After hard work, I successfully completed the mission and returned to the army safely. When I saw Xiaofang again, we hugged each other tightly and tears welled up in our eyes.
"Xiao Li, you're finally back!" Xiao Fang said excitedly.
I looked at her affectionately: "Xiaofang, I'm back, I will always be by your side." ”
Now, I am married and have children with Xiaofang and live a happy life. Recalling the scene when I refused to be introduced by my comrades-in-arms, I couldn't help but feel emotional. Thank you for their love, and thank you for fate for letting us meet. And this experience has become the most precious memory of my life.
The days passed quietly like flowing water, and Xiaofang and I supported each other and grew together during the years in the army. Our relationship has become deeper and deeper in the blandness, and we have become the envy of our comrades-in-arms. However, life is always full of unknowns and uncertainties.
On that day, news suddenly came from the company that a group of outstanding officers and men would be selected to participate in higher-level training. It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for me, but I hesitated. I was worried about leaving Xiaofang, worried that our newly stabilized life would be disrupted.
At night, the moonlight sprinkled on Xiaofang's face, and she looked extraordinarily gentle. I held her hand and whispered, "Xiaofang, have you heard about the company selection?" ”
Xiao Fang smiled slightly and replied, "Well, I heard. This is your chance and you should go. ”
I frowned, a little reluctant: "But, I can't bear you." ”
Xiao Fang gently stroked my face, her eyes full of determination: "Fool, this is your dream, I can't be a burden to you." Wherever you go, my heart will be with you. ”
I was touched by her deep affection and strengthened my determination. I hugged her tightly and whispered, "Xiaofang, wait for me to come back." ”
The selection process was extremely intense, but with my excellent quality and strong will, I finally qualified to participate in the training. On the day she left, Xiao Fang stood in the line of seeing her off, her eyes glistening with tears, but there was an encouraging smile on the corner of her mouth.
The days of training were extremely difficult, but whenever I think of Xiaofang, her encouragement and expectation, I can pick myself up again and move on. I knew I couldn't live up to her trust.
Time flies by in intense study and training. Finally, I finished my training and couldn't wait to return to the army and return to Xiaofang's side. She looked more mature, and there was a tenacity between her eyebrows that I was unfamiliar with.
"You've lost weight." Xiao Fang gently stroked my cheek, her eyes full of distress.
I smiled and shook her hand: "But I'm stronger and can protect you better." ”
Our lives are back on the track of calm and happiness again. However, it was not long before a piece of paper broke the peace. I was appointed to a brand new position, and that was Xiaofang's hometown.
Xiao Fang's eyes flashed with joy: "Does this mean that we can go back to our hometown and live together?" ”
I nodded, but there was some apprehension in my heart. I know that a new position means new challenges, but I am no longer alone, I have Xiaofang, we have each other.
Bidding farewell to the familiar troops, we embarked on the journey back home. There, we have to start a new life and face new challenges. But no matter what the road ahead, I believe that nothing is impossible as long as we walk together. Our story unfolds slowly in this unknown future.
The days of returning to my hometown are full of freshness and challenges. I was assigned an important position to keep my hometown safe. Xiaofang teaches at a local primary school, and her smile has become the sunshine in the hearts of the children.
Our lives are getting back on track, but with them are challenges. The responsibilities of the post are so great that I have to work overtime a lot, and sometimes I can't go home for days. Xiaofang has no complaints about this, she always supports me silently and waits for that warm home for me.
One night, when I got home late at night, Xiao Fang was sitting on the sofa waiting for me, her eyes showing signs of exhaustion.
"Xiaofang, it's so late, why don't you sleep yet?" I asked distressedly.
She stood up with a smile and handed me a cup of hot tea: "I'm waiting for you and want to talk to you." ”
I took the teacup and sat down next to her: "What's the matter, what's on your mind?" ”
Xiao Fang hesitated for a moment, and then said softly: "Today the school has a meeting, and I mentioned an opportunity to teach. I want to go, but I don't trust you. ”
I was slightly stunned, and a mixed emotion surged in my heart. I know that it has always been Xiaofang's dream to teach, but I selfishly hope that she can be by my side.
"Xiaofang, this is your dream, you should pursue it." I try to make my voice sound firm.
She looked at me with gratitude in her eyes: "Do you really support me to go?" ”
I nodded, but there was some bitterness in my heart: "Of course, I will always support you." ”
In this way, Xiaofang embarked on a journey of volunteer teaching. She went to a remote mountainous area where the conditions were tough, but her smile was still bright. Every time she writes back describing the children there and her life, I feel proud of her.
Time passes in a busy way, and it has been a year in the blink of an eye. I decided to go to the mountains to visit Xiaofang and see the children in her mouth.
When I stepped onto that barren land and saw the innocent smiling faces of those children, I understood why Xiaofang loved it so much. She stood in the middle of the children, smiling brighter than ever.
"Xiao Li, you're here." When Xiao Fang saw me, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
I stepped forward and hugged her tightly: "I'm here to see you and these lovely children." ”
In those few days, I witnessed Xiaofang's hard work and the growth of the children. I also started thinking about what I could do for these kids.
When I was leaving, I told Xiaofang, "I'm going back to apply and see if I can do something for here." ”
Xiao Fang held my hand tightly, her eyes full of anticipation: "I believe in you, you will definitely be able to help them." ”
After returning to work, I began to actively seek resources to provide more help to the children in the mountainous areas. Xiao Fang is also there to continue her career, and our hearts, although thousands of miles apart, are closely connected by a common goal.
Life is always full of challenges and choices, but as long as we have love in our hearts and understanding and support for each other, nothing is impossible. Our story continues to be written in this deep affection and persistence.
As time went by, Xiaofang and I worked hard in our respective positions to bring more hope and change to the children in those mountainous areas. My application was approved, and I began to organize some public welfare activities to raise materials and funds to help improve the living conditions and educational environment of the children.
Xiaofang has also achieved fruitful results in her volunteer teaching work, she not only teaches the children knowledge, but also cares about their growth and mental health, and has become the "mother" in the hearts of the children. Every time I see pictures of her with the children, my heart is filled with pride and emotion.
A year later, I came to the mountains again, this time with more supplies and volunteers. We built new classrooms for the children, improved their accommodation, and brought them more school supplies and toys. Seeing the bright smiles on the children's faces, I knew that our efforts were not in vain.
At this event, I also met an enthusiastic entrepreneur who was also touched by the persistence of Xiaofang and the children and decided to fund the project for a long time. This has strengthened my belief that if we work together, we can create a better future for our children.
After returning to work, I began to plan more public welfare activities, hoping to attract more social forces to participate in this cause. Xiaofang also insisted on her volunteer teaching work in the mountainous area, and her story touched more and more people, and also attracted some like-minded volunteers to join.
Our story, like the future of those mountain children, is full of hope and possibility. Although the road ahead is still full of challenges, as long as we hold hands and connect hearts, nothing is impossible. We will continue to write our story and bring more light and hope to those children in need.
