Take Arada back to the past

Chapter 615, Goodbye Feng Xue

PS: Some people may feel confused as to why we write about the relationship between Yang Xiaomei and Xiaoli. It’s because they are old enough, otherwise it would feel abrupt if they suddenly got married in the future.

Yang Xiaomei felt the person in front of her was very unfamiliar.

"Yang Xiaomei!"

While I was thinking, a young man came over from the side and called out softly.

Yang Xiaomei turned her head and wiped away her tears.

After calming down, he forced a smile and said, "Gao Yifan! Are you guys okay?"

Gao Yifan smiled and said, "We are fine! Wait a minute, I will see if I can ask the captain for leave."

After saying that, he ran away directly.

"Hey!"

Yang Xiaomei shouted, but the other party had already run away.

At this time, many people present were talking about it.

Gao Yifan ran to a middle-aged man, nodded, yawned, handed him a cigarette and smiled.

But the other party looked unhappy.

However, after Gao Yifan's repeated nagging, he finally nodded and agreed.

Only then did Gao Yifan run back happily.

At this time, Xiao Yitong came over from a distance and whispered, "I guess Gao Yifan is going to bleed a lot this time."

Yang Xiaomei was puzzled: "Why?"

"Hey, why else could it be! What do you think we educated youth came here for? We didn't come here to enjoy life, but to receive re-education from the poor and lower-middle peasants. Plus our family situation, hey... Gao Yifan is very active in his work, otherwise it would be even more difficult."

Having said that he sighed.

When Yang Xiaomei heard this, she felt sad.

Just as he was about to speak, Gao Yifan trotted over and said with a smile, "Okay, I've asked for an hour's leave. Xiao Yitong, you've also asked for leave."

Xiao Yitong smiled and nodded.

He looked at the two people in front of him and sighed in his heart.

Yang Xiaomei glanced at Lu Haoran who was working in the distance, and asked anxiously, "Can't Lu Haoran take a leave?"

These words made Gao Yifan feel helpless.

"Do you think he's willing to pay attention to us?"

Seeing this, Xiao Yitong said, "Hey, Xiaomei, let's go to the shore first!"

Hearing this, Yang Xiaomei looked at Lu Haoran who was working there, and finally had no choice but to agree.

He followed the two men to the shore, looking back every few steps.

When they reached the shore, several people sat down on a patch of grass.

Yang Xiaomei was in a daze there.

Gao Yifan lit the cigarette skillfully and smoked it.

The atmosphere was a little awkward.

Yang Xiaomei came back to her senses, looked at him and asked, "When did you learn to smoke?"

"Hey! It's been more than a year. After you started working at the art troupe, you only came to see us every now and then. How could you notice me?"

Gao Yifan laughed at himself.

Yang Xiaomei knew what the other person was thinking, and didn't know what to say, so she could only nod.

Thinking of something, he took something out of his bag.

"I brought some things for you. You don't know, I am so tired carrying all these things along the way."

Xiao Yitong picked up a can of braised pork and said with a smile, "Hey, finally we have meat to eat. You don't know, we have been here for several months and haven't had a bite of pork. If we want to eat, we can only wait until the New Year to slaughter the pig."

Gao Yifan also smiled as he held the glass can of braised pork.

We are all young people, so of course we crave meat.

He took a puff of his cigarette and smiled, “You don’t know, we ate a lot of fish here. It tasted good at first, but that guy ate too much and wanted to vomit.”

Hearing this, Yang Xiaomei laughed unhappily and said, "Just be content. You know that in the city of Sijiu, although fish is not as good as pork, it is also a rare thing!"

In other words, supplementary foods are rare these days.

Gao Yifan smiled when he heard that.

Then he looked at the cigarette and two bottles of wine placed there and laughed: "Why did you bring cigarettes and wine?"

Seeing this, Yang Xiaomei said, "We have to entertain people here! How can we do without food? Maotai is not easy to get, and it is considered a face here."

This wine is actually not difficult to make. Yang Xiaole has hidden a lot of it at home.

But Yang Xiaole's behavior over the years has made her accustomed to hiding.

You may not have understood it before, and you can’t talk about it casually now.

Gao Yifan took the wine and a pack of Mudan cigarettes, smiled and nodded, "Yang Xiaomei, these cigarettes and alcohol are not something that ordinary cadres can drink even in BJ City! It's really impressive."

"Eat candy!"

Yang Xiaomei pointed at the candy and urged.

Seeing this, the two of them took a White Rabbit and ate one, looking very enjoyable.

After a while, Yang Xiaomei asked, "Gao Yifan, are you and Lu Haoran living together now?"

"Well, we lived together with the educated youth from other places, in a educated youth site, men and women in one yard, in two houses..."

Gao Yifan was explaining the situation there.

Yang Xiaomei was listening carefully there.

After a long while, she finally asked about what she was concerned about: "Gao Yifan, why did Lu Haoran become like this? He wasn't like this before!"

Gao Yifan sighed when he heard this and wondered what to say.

Xiao Yitong shrugged and said, "Just think about it, Lu Haoran was so high-spirited back then. Now he can hardly accept such a blow."

After saying that, he hesitated for a moment.

Finally, he said hesitantly: "Actually, the problem lies with you."

"On me?"

Yang Xiaomei was confused for a moment, wondering how this had anything to do with her.

"Xiao Yitong!" Gao Yifan next to her looked at her with a frown, meaning that he didn't want her to speak.

Xiao Yitong looked at his expression and knew what he meant: "What's there to hide? You found a job a few months before going to the countryside. You didn't tell him about this, and then something happened at home, so he started to degenerate."

This made Yang Xiaomei feel conflicted: "But, I told him before that the job was arranged by my brother, and he didn't let me tell anyone else."

"Yes! Others! So, in his mind, he is someone else to you."

Xiao Yitong was talking there.

These words left Yang Xiaomei silent.

Over the past ten years, Yang Xiaole has almost become the backbone of the family. Except for his parents, no one else will refute what he says.

And judging from what has happened over the years, Yang Xiaole has done everything right.

She didn't treat Lu Haoran as an outsider.

However, Yang Xiaole had explained it again and again, after all, the situation was so chaotic at that time.

Even my family doesn’t know.

Thinking of this, she took a deep breath and said, "I have already explained this matter. When you knew about this, my parents had just found out about it. My brother wouldn't let me tell anyone. In our family, no one knew about this except me and my sister."

Hearing this, Xiao Yitong said, "We all know that the problem is that Lu Haoran suffered such a great blow! And then you had this incident. This incident was just a fuse, the last straw that broke the camel's back."

Yang Xiaomei was confused when she heard this.

Is it really wrong?
Gao Yifan looked at her expression, shook his head and said, "Alright, Xiao Yitong, stop talking. How can you blame Xiaomei for this? Even her family doesn't know about this. Why do you treat him as an outsider? We know about this from Lu Haoran! What else do you want?"

Xiao Yitong sighed when she heard that.

Yang Xiaomei was thinking there and realized that both of them were right.

His own affairs were indeed the last straw that broke the camel's back.

A woman in love doesn’t have much brains, and at this moment she felt a little guilty. …………

In the evening, Yang Xiaole finally arrived at the provincial capital by car, accompanied by a deputy director of the regiment's political department.

As for Zhang Shaoting, he is not with the old regiment headquarters.

There have been a lot of things going on in the group recently.

After arriving at the place, we were arranged to stay in the guesthouse of the Production and Construction Corps headquarters.

The lecture will be at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon.

It's just to give him time to rest, and the people in the Corps will hold a meeting for him tomorrow morning.

After everything was arranged, Wang Zhengwei held a meeting with the two of them, gave them some instructions, and then went to eat.

The military camp in the provincial capital would naturally not be like the regiment headquarters in the countryside, although it was not as beautifully decorated as the houses in later generations.

But it’s much better than now.

At least many of the roads are made of cement and the houses are made of red bricks.

There is also a special water room for bathing.

"Yang Xiaole!"

He had just finished his meal and returned to the guesthouse when he saw someone calling him in the lobby.

"Feng Xue!"

Yang Xiaole raised his eyebrows when he saw this.

Looking at Zhao Tao and the other man beside him, he smiled and said, "Commissioner Wang, instructor, this is the educated youth who joined my production team. We joined the army together."

Wang Zhengwei nodded gently: "Well, then you guys chat, don't wait too late."

He said hello and took Zhao Tao inside.

After the others had left for a while, Yang Xiaole looked at her and smiled, "Why are you here? How did you know I was coming?"

Feng Xue laughed when he heard this and said, "Now who doesn't know our combat hero Yang Xiaole?"

He smiled, looked at the door and said, "Let's go out and talk."

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole naturally followed behind.

It was already dark outside.

After coming out, the two walked on the military path.

Yang Xiaole looked at her and teased, "Why are you so dark? Darker than when you were in the village."

Hearing this, Feng Xue pouted and glanced at him in a reproachful manner: "How can you talk like that? How can I not be dark? New soldiers are exposed to the sun every day during training. What's wrong? I embarrass you! You are not much whiter!"

Yang Xiaole smiled there.

Then he asked, "How did you know I was here? By the way, where are you now? Are you also in the Corps?"

Feng Xue shook her head. "I'm not in the Corps anymore. I'm in the Provincial Military Region now, still in the recruit company! It was Uncle Gu who told me about you! The Corps is going to hold a speech meeting, and someone from our side is going to come and listen, so he told me about it."

Gu Zhiguo.

When Yang Xiaole heard the name, he naturally knew who it was.

The person who arranged for the two of them to take the military plane last time.

This is not surprising.

Feng Xue said to him cheerfully, "I just found out about it this afternoon. After lunch, I asked for leave and came here. Isn't that nice? You didn't even write to me."

"That's nice. The problem is, I don't know where you are! Didn't we agree to write a letter? It's been more than two months."

The two were chatting there.

Feng Xue looked at him with burning eyes.

We have been in the army separately for more than two months and have been training every day.

But as soon as I stop, besides my parents, my mind is filled with his figure.

All I was thinking about were the things that happened between them at the skating rink and when they cut in line.

I can't get rid of it.

So when she heard at noon that he was going to give a speech the next day, she couldn't bear it any longer and asked for leave to come over.

For this reason, she greeted Gu Zhiguo for the first time.

Because it is not allowed during the recruit period.

Then he asked him, "How was your time in the company?"

Yang Xiaole shrugged and said with a smile: "What else can we do? We are not a Class A unit like you. We don't have to do farming. We trained for a month and a half, and then started doing farm work..."

Then he told him about his life after joining the army.

There was no one on the small dirt road at this time, and the two chatted as they walked.

When they came to a place with many trees, Feng Xue suddenly stopped.

She turned her head and just looked at him straight.

Yang Xiaole was stunned for a moment.

But then Feng Xue came up and hugged him tightly.

Yang Xiaole looked at the other party's movements and gently pushed it.

Just as he was about to speak, he heard Feng Xue say, "Don't touch me!"

Then Feng Xue said, "I know. You want to say you have a partner again? Aren't you still not married? If you're not married, we still have a chance. Can you not reject me so quickly?"

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole’s mind was spinning.

Then he laughed and said, "I'm not a good person!"

He is a thick-skinned man, and he also has special feelings for Feng Xue. It is nonsense to say that he has no feelings for her.

It’s just that Feng Xue is different from people like Hua Yourong and Qu Ying.

As for Qu Ying, at least she knows that Hua Yourong will not come back, and Hua Yourong will basically not return to the mainland, or in other words, will not have any contact with Qu Ying.

The two people temporarily maintained a balance.

Just like Feng Xue, even if Feng Xue was willing, his father would kill him.

What level of person is Feng Guanhua?

"I know, you're a bad guy!"

Feng Xue hugged him for a while, then let him go and spat with a red face.

Then he mustered up the courage to say, "You know what? It wasn't a big deal before, at least we saw each other every day, but after we broke up, all I can think about is you!"

She is not afraid of losing face.

If you don't work hard, you might just miss it.

Yang Xiaole didn't know what to say for a moment.

It’s not right to say that I didn’t provoke him.

Fortunately, someone rescued him.

"Feng Xue!"

While he was thinking, he heard a voice calling him.

Hearing the voice, Feng Xue became impatient and pulled his hand and walked away.

"Who? The one pursuing you?"

Yang Xiaole was curious, this was obviously a man's voice.

Even a fool can guess it.

Feng Xue nodded: "Yes, the son of Vice Commissioner Wang was like a fly when he saw me at Uncle Gu's house that time."
