Chapter 34

Lei Qianjun's words not only astonished Zhang Yunfeng and his mother, but also Zhang Xingming, who couldn't help but sigh. From his expression, one could tell that he had an additional sense of relief.

"Qian Ming …" Zhang Xingming sighed deeply, saying, "You know my temper. After that incident back then, I did indeed blame you, and I've also blamed you for many years, but today, I've thought it through, actually, I shouldn't blame you, and I shouldn't blame anyone. Speaking of which, everyone's not wrong, it's us, I blame you, I just want to find an explanation for the thirty-six dead brothers in my heart, someone who can convince me, but in the end, I'm still wrong …"

As he spoke, Zhang Xingming poured a cup of wine each for himself and Lei Qianjun, then took the lead as he said, "Qianming, I left the army not because of you, but because people often say that I was terrified. After experiencing so many life and death situations around me, I was tired and wanted to retreat.

After you recovered, many of my brothers have also recovered. After all these years, I have tried to contact them, but those who were willing to talk to me were few and far between. I know that they all blame me, and every July, I would return to the southwest to burn some paper money and bring a bottle of wine for my brothers who had been sleeping there for a long time.

Zhang Xingming smiled wryly and said, "Qianming, why do you have to go through all this trouble?" "No need to blame yourself for this matter, the other brothers have been in contact with me often, and they don't want to contact you, not because of you, but because they don't want to bring up that sad memory. Everyone is trying to escape, no one has ever dared to face it, and if this goes on, they will never be able to live with it, so I think it's better that I can contact everyone and see if there's time for us to gather and find a place to meet up and say whatever it is that they don't dare to say, and say it's a good thing for everyone."

"Alright!" He trembled as he said, "Big Brother Zhang, you should bring the brothers over. No matter where they are, as long as they're willing to come, I, Lei Qianjun, will take care of everything. After so many years, I've been looking forward to this day …"

"Done!" Zhang Xingming nodded and said, "I'll handle this. From now on, we won't discuss this topic anymore. Let's talk about something fun in front of this bro of yours, in front of my wife and children."

Lei Qianjun touched his tears and nodded heavily.

Zhang Xingming was the first to bring up the topic, asking, "Qiuming, you've been in Nanjiang Province for five to six years, right?"

Lei Qianjun nodded and said, "That's right. I transferred over from Fuzhou six years ago."

"What about sister-in-law?" Zhang Xingming asked.

"In Beijing." Lei Qianjun replied, "She is the daughter of my father's old comrade, but she is not part of the army."

With that, Lei Qianjun glanced at Zhang Yun Feng and said, "That girl of mine should be around the same age as your Yun Feng. She is also in third year and is in Yan Jing, but her academic performance is not as good as yours, Yun Feng."

This was the first time that Zhang Yunfeng had been praised by an outsider for his excellent results, and he immediately felt a bit embarrassed. However, Zhang Xingming stood to the side and said with a laugh, "This Yun Feng brat didn't know how to work hard in the past, but now he finally knows how to study. His mother and I can finally heave a sigh of relief."

Lei Qianjun nodded and said to Zhang Yunfeng, "Yunfeng, tonight, your parents will go home and rest for a few days. I'll talk to the school committee for a few days and let them get to know your school well, and I heard from your father that your school also took advantage of you, and even let the police take you away in front of all the teachers and students. Don't worry, Uncle Lei will help you find a place to lose face.

Zhang Yunfeng hurriedly said, "Uncle Lei, I'm already very grateful that you were able to help me bring me out of the jail. As for my face in front of the teachers and students, it's not that important to me. Don't trouble yourself."

"How can that be?" Lei Qianjun frowned and said, "As a man, it's true that you can yield, but as soon as you yield, you have to find an opportunity to do so! It's not something a man would do. Even though you're still young, you can't lose your face, even your dad. If you lose your face, you have to get it back! This is a man's way of doing things! "
