Chapter 354 Farewell
The next day, Wang Hong got up early in the morning and made dumplings for Sun Yafei, stuffed with lard residue and cabbage.

Uncle Guan set up the ox cart himself, and drove it to the gate of Wang Hong's house.

The bullock cart should have been wiped clean, much cleaner than before.

Li Dahe put the two large bags of luggage on the bullock cart in silence. He squinted his eyes and looked at Sun Yafei. After a long silence, he said, "Go there and work hard, and call if you have something to do."

He is like an old father who is about to send off his children on a long journey. He has ten thousand words to say in his heart, but there are only dry words on his lips.

Wang Hong put her arms around Sun Yafei's shoulders, put the other hand on her satchel, and said: "The dry food and the letter of introduction are in the bag, you should read carefully. I put two eggs in the satchel for you. The rest is in the luggage roll, don’t sleep on the road, don’t reveal your wealth, take care of your luggage, serve yourself snacks, and don’t trust anyone when you go out.”

With a heavy heart, Sun Yafei pursed her lips and nodded gently.

She tried her best to hold back her tears, and didn't want to be soaked in tears when she said goodbye at the end.

"Okay, get on the train, we won't be able to catch the train for a while." Uncle Guan sat on the bullock cart and said in a muffled voice.

"Well, yes, let's go." Wang Hong sniffed and let go.

"Wait, wait!"

Before Uncle Guan raised his whip, Principal Wu's voice came from afar.

Principal Wu trotted all the way over, holding a brand new kettle in his hand.

Just as Sun Yafei sat firmly, she saw Principal Wu wanting to get out of the car, but she held her down.

Principal Wu stuffed the kettle into Sun Yafei's arms, and with a smile on his lips, he said, "I made the mung bean soup early in the morning, take it with me on the way."

Sun Yafei endured the tears she had cried all morning and fell down.

'The capitalist's daughter also has to drink mung bean soup. '

It was her first day in the Shili Brigade, and Principal Wu brought her a bowl of mung bean soup with a smile like this.

"Don't cry, baby, let's go, come back and have a look when you're all right."

Principal Wu wiped away the tears from her face, smiled and waved to her.

"Principal, Aunt Wang, Captain..."

Sun Yafei hugged the kettle and looked at the people in front of him, crying uncontrollably.

Uncle Guan glanced back, sighed, flicked his whip, and carried her away.

The bullock cart walked slowly, the doors of every house opened one after another, and familiar faces appeared by the door.

They waved at her, and told her what to do. They asked her to call if she had something to do, told her to unite with her comrades when she was in the Corps, and told her to come back and see if she was fine... If she came back again, she would not be allowed to work.

The villagers followed the ox cart, trying to see her off a little longer.

When the bullock cart turned around the big tree at the entrance of the village, the villagers stopped.

Sun Yafei said in a trembling voice, "Uncle Guan, just stop for a moment..."

Uncle Guan sighed again and stopped the car.

Sun Yafei jumped out of the car without waiting for the car to stop. She looked at these people who had worked so hard to warm her, and knelt down as soon as her knees softened.

She bent down and touched her forehead to the ground.

She didn't know how she should repay them, but she knew that she was really, really reluctant to be here.

Even though she only stayed here for less than a month, she really regarded this place as her home.

She knelt for a long time, her tears smashed into the dust, and she couldn't stand up from crying.

In the end, it was Uncle Guan who pulled her up from the ground.

He said: "Okay, girl, let's go, if you delay any longer, you will really miss the bus... You can come back whenever you want in the future, and it's not like you won't be able to see each other."

Sun Yafei was dragged and dragged into the bullock cart by Uncle Guan.

The bullock cart went away, and gradually, she couldn't see the faces of the villagers clearly.

But she knew that these people, these things, this memory, she would never forget in her life.

From now on, she will have two families.

It was already night when Sun Yafei arrived at the Corps.

The company commander of the Ninth Company and the platoon leader of the female platoon were the ones who went to pick her up at the station.

They treated her very kindly, and the platoon leader told her that a berth had been reserved for her in the dormitory, and even made noodles for her.

This made Sun Yafei's hanging heart relax a little.

Sun Yafei was assigned to Jiulian, and it took nearly an hour to drive from the station to Jiulian, which was a long way.

On the way, the platoon leader told her a lot of precautions in the Great Northern Wilderness.Including but not limited to not running around, especially at night, because you may step on bottomless water bubbles; the sickle cannot be left, not only for work, but also for self-protection...

Sun Yafei tried her best to remember, and when the platoon leader had finished speaking, she asked, "Platoon leader, do you know a lesbian named Guan Manling?"

The platoon leader was taken aback, then smiled.

She looked at the company commander of the Ninth Company, smiled and said to Sun Yafei: "You have to find Comrade Company Commander, he is more familiar!"

"Ahem, what are you talking about." The company commander's dark face turned red, he touched his nose uncomfortably, and turned his head to look out the car window.

Sun Yafei went in without knowing, with a dazed face.

The platoon leader smiled and said to her: "Manling is in the same dormitory as you, and she is the monitor of your class. You can see her later."

"Really? That would be great."

Sun Yafei felt that this was the only good news she got today.

When they arrived at the Ninth Company, the company commander helped lift Sun Yafei's luggage to the door of the women's dormitory and left, as if fleeing, as if he was afraid of being caught by the platoon leader and making fun of him.

The female educated youths in the dormitory ran out when they heard the sound, applauding and smiling to say welcome.

Sun Yafei didn't expect that there were more than ten people living in such a dormitory, so he immediately stiffened: "Brother, hello everyone, my name is Sun Yafei..."

"Hello, Sun Yafei." Guan Manling took a step forward and held her hand with a smile, "My name is Guan Manling, and I'm the monitor of the second female class. You can come to me for anything you need in the future."

Sun Yafei looked at Guan Manling's handsome face and nodded repeatedly.

"Come on, I just cooked noodles for you. Eat the noodles first when you enter the door." Guan Manling said, pulling Sun Yafei into the room.

Sun Yafei was surrounded and ate a bowl of noodles, then tugged Guan Manling, and asked softly, "Squad leader, do you know Lin Nianhe?"

Guan Manling was taken aback, then nodded: "I know, what's the matter?"

"She asked me to bring you a letter." Sun Yafei quickly found the flat letter from her satchel and handed it to Guan Manling.

Guan Manling held the letter and didn't open it directly, but asked first: "Are you from the Shili brigade?"

"Yes." Sun Yafei nodded obediently.

"That..." Guan Manling frowned, and asked after a moment of hesitation, "How is Xie Yufei doing?"

"He..." Sun Yafei thought about the turmoil of the past two days, and spoke for a long time, and finally he could only bite the bullet and say, "He is still alive."

Guan Manling: "..."

She tore open the envelope immediately and read the letter quickly.

Lin Nianhe's letter wasn't long, and he first told Guan Manling and Xie Yufei's recent situation: he made a fuss, committed crimes, and drank too much, but finally came back to life.

After reading this passage, Guan Manling breathed a sigh of relief, raised her hand to wipe off the cold sweat from her forehead, and continued to read the letter.
