"He only wrote us a letter, saying let's live well and live well. He is a brother and he will take care of us all his life."

Ripple moved a little, and she blocked the clenched fist of the person on the hospital bed behind her.

"Live well..." Zhao Qian's eyes began to drift, like a kite fluttering in the strong wind. After struggling for a few minutes, he was still blown off the line: "OK, then I'll live well. I took my sister away from my hometown, and I returned all the money he sent us. I admit that I'm angry. I'm a man and a brother..."

Ripple's chest seemed to be stuffed with a large ball of cotton, which made her stuffy.

"I understand why he joined the army." Zhao Qian looked sideways at the side face that was so pale that it was almost integrated with the white sheets and pillowcases: "at that time, we were all young, and my physical quality was very poor, and I couldn't compare with him in height and strength. To put it bluntly... He was the only one who could go out and make money."

Zhao Qian's voice was faint, but he couldn't hide his deep sadness.

"I'm not old enough to work and can't earn money. I can't even pay xiaorou's medical expenses." Zhao Qian's eyes turned red, "only he... Only he can meet the conditions of conscription, only he..."

The rippling heart is like a lead block, cold and hard falling on the chest.

"I don't want him to go... I want him to take me and xiaorou to dig sweet potatoes in the ground every day..." Zhao Qian's tears slipped from the corners of his eyes and fainted on the white pillowcase, "even if a meal only has sweet potatoes and rice porridge..."

Ripples raised her face. The tip of her nose turned red and choked in her throat.

"After he left... Xiaorou cried and asked me every day when brother Xiao Le would come back..." Zhao Qian took a deep breath: "I also want to ask when he will come back, will he come back... Will he fulfill his promise and marry xiaorou in the future."

"... I will."

The man in the other hospital bed was weak and opened his mouth.

In fact, Xiao Le woke up earlier than Zhao Qian.

Ripple didn't ask anything, only said a word to him - "continue to sleep, pretend to sleep."

So he heard every word and word Zhao Qian said, which was like a fire whip beating him hard.

At the beginning, he didn't want to go.

But xiaorou's ears can't wait. She sees a doctor and needs money urgently.

Xiao Le has been looking for a job in the town for three days. He has dirty work, hard work and heavy work. His body can carry it, but his age can't.

At this time, the country began a new round of conscription.

Xiao Le's physical quality is very good. At the age of a teenager, he has grown to one meter eight.

He was caught in the eye of the conscription leader at that time. After understanding his family situation, the conscription leader directly applied for special subsidies for him, which means that he has been paid since the day he joined the army.

Xiao Le left one night when Zhao Qian and Xiao Rou were asleep. He stuffed all the money he had left into Zhao Qian's pocket.

"Really..." Zhao Qian let tears wet the corners of his eyes and fainted on the pillowcase.

"I've been looking for you." Xiao Le opened his eyes with a thick layer of water: "I'm looking for you every year on family leave... Zhao Qian, I asked you to wait for me with xiaorou... That's how you waited for me!"

"Waiting for you?" Zhao Qian smiled, "when you come back, xiaorou and I will die."

Ripples was suddenly surprised in her heart. She subconsciously turned and pressed Xiao le.

Xiao Le had pulled off the needle from his hand and turned over and sat up from the hospital bed: "what did you say?"
