It was cloudy and rainy all night.
When the sky was slightly bright, Xiao Chen woke up.
He looked at Han Yifei who was sleeping soundly next to him, sat up slowly, got out of bed, and walked into the bathroom.
When he came out of a brief wash, he found that Han Yifei had also woken up.
"Why don't you sleep a little longer, did I wake you up?"
Xiao Chen looked at Han Yifei and asked.
"No, at this time, I will wake up."
Han Yifei shook his head and said.
"Oh, so what are you doing today?"
Xiao Chen asked casually.
"Have."
"What's up?"
"My dad texted me and told me to go back."
"Oh, then you will go home later, I will go to Bashan."
"Yuanbao's funeral?"
"Ok."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Then I'll go home and have a look, and I'll also go to Bashan to attend Yuanbao's funeral."
Han Yifei thought for a while and said.
"it is good."
Xiao Chen nodded.
After Han Yifei washed and put on his clothes, the two went downstairs and had breakfast.
Then, the two opened up and left the hotel.
Xiao Chen first sent Han Yifei to Han's house, and then went straight to Bashan Funeral Parlor.
When he got there, Leng Feng and the others had already arrived.
In addition, Yuan Bao's parents also arrived.
"Uncle, aunt, you are here."
Xiao Chen greeted Yuan Bao's parents.
"Well, this kid Yuan Bao has liked to be lively since he was a child. Today, so many people come to see him off, he will be very happy."
Yuan Bao's mother, with red eyes, said to Xiao Chen.
"Well, Er Lao, don't be too sad."
Xiao Chen nodded, persuading Yuan Bao's parents.
"Don't be sad, we are proud of having a child like Yuan Bao!"
Yuan Bao's father, Xu Mantun wiped his eyes and said.
"Wait a minute, many comrades will come over."
"Well, what you say to do, we will do."
Yuan Bao's parents nodded.
"You don't need to do anything, just stay with Yuan Bao."
Xiao Chen said to Yuan Bao's parents.
"Uh-huh."
Yuan Bao's mother couldn't help but shed tears.
"Spend more time with Wazi, and you won't be able to see him in the future."
Xiao Chen didn't know how to persuade the two of them, so he had to go to other things.
He couldn't see Yuan Bao's parents crying, white-haired people giving black-haired people.
"Leng Feng, who is here?"
Xiao Chen asked.
"The four branches of the military have all sent people here."
Leng Feng said to Xiao Chen.
"Ok."
Xiao Chen nodded, Yuan Bao likes to be lively, so he will let him be lively and finish this last journey.
Wreaths were brought in one by one.
To Xiao Chen's surprise, No. 1 also sent someone to deliver a wreath, and personally held an elegiac couplet.
When Yuan Bao's parents knew that it was sent by Chief No. 1, their eyes widened.
They really didn't expect that their son was even alarmed by No. 1.
"Boy, did you see that? Even No. 1 sent a wreath."
Yuan Bao's mother pointed to the wreath sent by No. 1 and shouted.
Soon, the memorial service began and visitors began to enter.
Yuan Bao's parents, Leng Feng and others stood at the station, receiving the visitors.
After people from the four major divisions of the military came in, an announcement came from outside: "Chief Guan Duanshan, come to express condolences!"
Hearing this voice, the faces of the people in the four major departments changed, and they walked out quickly.
Xiao Chen looked at the door, and saw Guan Duanshan in a black Chinese tunic suit, accompanied by several people, striding in.
He first stepped forward, put on three sticks of incense, and walked towards Yuan Bao's parents.
"Uncle and aunt, this is a big shot in the military, from the imperial court."
Xiao Chen introduced.
Hearing Xiao Chen's introduction, Yuan Bao's parents were shocked, too nervous to speak.
They are just farmers, when have they seen such high officials!
"Brother, you have raised a good boy! He sacrificed for the country, the country and the people will never forget him!"
Guan Duanshan held Xu Mandun's callused hand and said to him.
"Thank you chief, thank you chief."
Xu Mantun said tremblingly.
"No, it should be me thanking you for raising such a good child as Yuan Bao."
Guan Duanshan shook his head and said seriously.
Hearing Guan Duanshan's words, Yuan Bao's mother burst into tears.
"Yuan Bao, did you hear that? The chief praised you!"
"Yuan Bao is a hero, a martyr!"
Guan Duanshan looked at Yuan Bao's parents and said loudly.
While they were talking, another announcement came from outside.
"The Han family, Mr. Han, come to offer condolences!"
Hearing this, Guan Duanshan's face changed slightly, and Xiao Chen also widened his eyes, very surprised.
Why is Mr. Han here? !
"Who is this Mr. Han?"
Seeing the expressions of Xiao Chen and Guan Duanshan, Xu Mantun asked curiously.
When Guan Duanshan said a name, Xu Mandun's eyes widened suddenly.
Although he lives in a poor area and is just a farmer facing the loess and his back to the sky, he has heard this name before!
There are even a few movies where this person plays the role!
"Really, is this really here?"
Xu Mantun's voice was trembling beyond recognition.
He really couldn't believe that his son's death had shocked even this one.
"Ok."
Guan Duanshan nodded and greeted him out.
As Mr. Han, even he has to be half a lifetime shorter!
Speaking of which, he was still under Mr. Han's hand, and had been a leader for two years!
Later, he was transferred to another legion and rose step by step until now!
Xiao Chen also followed behind Guan Duan Shan, and hurried up to meet him.
"Mr. Han, why are you here?"
Turn off the front of the hill.
"I heard from Xiao Chen yesterday that Yuan Bao is a good comrade, so I'm here to see him off for the last time."
Mr. Han nodded to Guan Duanshan and said.
"Master, you are here."
Xiao Chen was moved in his heart, he really did not expect that Mr. Han would come here in person.
"Well, I'm coming to see Yuan Bao."
Mr. Han nodded.
"Master, please come inside."
Xiao Chen walked inside with Mr. Han, and saw Yuan Bao lying on the crystal management and wearing the national flag.
Mr. Han stood in front of the crystal coffin, looked at Yuan Bao, stood up straight, and slowly saluted the military.
Following Mr. Han's military salute, no matter Xiao Chen, Guan Duanshan, and everyone in the military circle stood at attention and saluted.
Leng Feng and the others had red eye circles, ingots, worth it!
Yuan Bao's parents also broke down in tears: "Boy, did you see that? Mr. Han is here, Chief Guan is here..."
Mr. Han lowered his hands slowly, and Xiao Chen and others also lowered their hands.
"Grandpa, go and sit next to me."
After Xiao Chen finished speaking, he looked at Han Yifei behind Mr. Han.
"Grandpa, let me help you to sit down."
Han Yifei said to Mr. Han.
"No, I'm not tired."
Mr. Han shook his head, picked up the incense, and lit it.
Following the news of Mr. Han's arrival, the No. 1 figures in the four major divisions of the military couldn't sit still anymore and rushed over one after another.
Several people in the imperial court, except for meeting guests on the 1st, also showed up.
All of a sudden, big bosses gathered at Yuan Bao's funeral!
Even if a certain big shot in the imperial court died, it would be nothing more than such a scene.
Yuan Bao's parents were overwhelmed with excitement.
Although they were very sad, they were more proud of their son!
Leng Feng and the others were also very excited, but they knew that both Mr. Han and Guan Duan Shan were here for Xiao Chen!
And the four big ministries and the big bosses of the imperial court are all here for Mr. Han!
The master of ceremonies was also very excited, this was the first time he presided over such a memorial service!
After the memorial speech was briefly said, Yuan Bao's father, Xu Mandun, walked onto the stage and said something very simple.
Mr. Han looked at Xu Mandun and nodded repeatedly.
Back then, he was also from a mud-legged background!
He knows that farmers are the most simple!
In the middle, Mr. Han also came to the stage and said a few words.
The theme is the spirit of modern soldiers, which greatly praised Yuan Bao's spirit of sacrifice!
In the end, Xiao Chen stepped onto the stage slowly and said something on behalf of Leng Feng and the others.
One morning, the memorial service was over.
"Yifei, take the old man back, be careful on the way."
Xiao Chen said to Han Yifei.
"Ok, I know."
Han Yifei nodded.
"Xiao Chen, I will leave the rest to you."
Mr. Han looked at Xiao Chen and said seriously.
"Old man, don't worry, leave everything to me."
Xiao Chen nodded.
Afterwards, Mr. Han left, and Guan Duanshan and others also left one after another.
However, when the No. 1 figure in the 4th Department left, he said that he would let the whole army learn Yuan Bao's spirit of self-sacrifice and not afraid of sacrifice!
This is also the tone set by Mr. Han!
After they were all gone, Xiao Chen and others accompanied Yuan Bao's parents to the cremation.
After the cremation, they came to the Martyrs Cemetery.
The location was chosen before Yuanbao!
After the burial, Xiao Chen stood in front of the grave, feeling very depressed.
He glanced around, and all the familiar names were buried here now!
"Although it seems that the world is peaceful, after the peace, there are their sacrifices."
Xiao Chen said slowly.
Leng Feng and the others nodded. The turmoil behind the peace is beyond the knowledge of ordinary people.
Even if there are occasional situations that cannot be covered up, they will be announced under the pretext of military exercises to prevent the common people from panicking.
"Brother Chen, I like a sentence you said before."
Leng Feng looked at Yuan Bao's grave and said.
"What words?"
Xiao Chen turned his head, looked at Leng Feng and asked.
"There is no such thing as a quiet time, but someone is carrying the burden for you to move forward...and we are those who carry the burden forward."
Leng Feng said slowly.
Xiao Chen nodded, it was indeed so.
"My baby!"
Yuan Bao's mother was lying on the grave, crying loudly.
Xu Mandun, Yuan Bao's father, suppressed his grief, but wiped the corners of his eyes with his hands from time to time.
Regardless of glory or pride, their son has left them!
Xiao Chen and others didn't try to persuade them, they should give them a chance to vent their sadness.
"Come on, let's toast Yuan Bao."
Xiao Chen opened a bottle of Burning Knife, poured it into a cup, and said loudly.
"Respect Yuanbao!"
Leng Feng and the others raised their glasses and said loudly.
For about an hour, Xiao Chen and others accompanied Yuan Bao's parents and left the martyrs' cemetery.
"Uncle and aunt, when do you plan to leave?"
On the way back, Xiao Chen asked.
"The two of us have discussed it, and we will go back tomorrow."
Xu Mantun said to Xiao Chen.
"Then I'll arrange someone to take you back."
"No, we can go back by train! Thank you!"
Xu Mantun looked at Xiao Chen and the others, and said gratefully.
"Uncle, you don't need to thank us, I didn't bring Yuanbao back."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"No, it's not your fault, it's really not your fault, kid."
Yuan Bao's mother, wiping her tears, shook her head and said.
