Zhao Ying sent her parents off and turned around to mingle with her classmates.
The life of a university student in military training had begun. Zhao Ying, who was wearing a beret and camouflage uniform, looked even more heroic. Coupled with her sharp and resolute face, she attracted a lot of attention. The platoon leader in charge of their military training was especially impressed by Zhao Ying's military posture. Zhao Ying was 1.8 meters tall and had a tall and straight posture. Therefore, Zhao Ying was naturally chosen as the vanguard. She stood at the front and led the military training team.
Half a month of military training was about to end. On the day of the performance report, the soldiers from the Tianamen National Flag Class came to Zhao Ying's school. The students were jubilant. Zhao Ying and the soldiers of the National Flag Squad took a photo together. They also agreed to go to Tianamen to watch the flag-raising ceremony on October 1st and appreciate the military's style.
Not long after the military training ended, it was October 1st National Day.
On the evening of September 30th, Zhao Ying and her classmates finished their meal early and walked out of the school gate. They took the bus all the way to Tian 'an Gate. The Tianamen Square was already filled with people waiting. Zhao Ying and her classmates found a suitable seat and sat down. They were going to spend the night in Tianamen Square. They saw people from all over the world with all kinds of skin colors. Most of them came to Tianamen Square for the first time to watch the national flag raising, and most of them were freshmen. Their faces were filled with uncontrollable enthusiasm. They greeted each other and communicated with each other. The gentle autumn wind blew, making people feel relaxed and happy.
More and more people gathered in the square, and in a short while, it was filled with a black mass. Zhao Ying and her classmates sat on the ground, talking with fervor. Unknowingly, the first rays of the morning sun appeared. Suddenly, the crowd burst into an uproar, and then it turned silent. Zhao Ying and her classmates had arrived early last night, so they were sitting in the front row. They stood up and saw the soldiers of the flag class guarding the national flag and walking towards Tianamen Square in unison.
Zhao Ying held her breath and watched the flag rise slowly. Thinking back to her three years in high school, Zhao Ying had dreamed of going to Tian 'anmen to watch the solemn five-star red flag rise slowly. Her throat tightened and her eyes moistened. She had suffered for twelve years just to come to the capital, Beijing. Zhao Ying, who was full of vigor, secretly made up her mind to work hard during the four years of university, display her talents, and make her parents proud of her!
After watching the flag-raising, Zhao Ying and her classmates forgot about their tiredness. They were still in high spirits. They toured around Beijing and did not return to school until evening.
Zhou Yaning and Zhao Feipeng returned home from Beijing. Without their son's presence, the house seemed to be empty all of a sudden. Zhou Yaning looked at Zhao Ying's desk, which she used to work hard at every day. It was now spotless. The books on the table had been tidied up before her son left. They were either sold or left for her sister. Zhou Yaning was not used to the silence in her son's room. Zhou Yaning was used to the noise when her son was at home. She was used to being busy with her son. Once she was free, she didn't know what to do.
In the blink of an eye, it was October 1st National Day. She had not seen her son for more than half a month. On the night of September 30th, Zhou Yaning could not suppress her longing for her son. She dialed her son's dormitory number, but strangely, no one picked up. That night, Zhou Yaning called several times, but no one picked up. The next day, Zhou Yaning, who was feeling uneasy, called again, but no one picked up. Strange, did this kid disappear?
It was not until nine o'clock in the evening that Zhao Ying, who had returned to the dormitory, saw a call from home. She called back,""Mom, are you worried? What is it?" "Little brat, where did you go? " I haven't seen you for a day. I missed you." Zhou Yaning received a call from her son and couldn't wait to ask him about his whereabouts for the day. When she learned that he had gone to Tianamen Square to watch the flag-raising ceremony with his classmates, and that he hadn't rested for a day and a night, Zhou Yaning asked him to take care of his health. After nagging and asking if everything was fine, she put down the phone with relief.
It would be better to give her son a phone so that she wouldn't be unable to find him when she wanted to. Zhou Yaning said to her husband," Sure!" He asked someone to bring the phone that was idle at home.
Zhao Ying was equipped with a mobile phone, so it was much more convenient for her to contact her family. However, Zhao Ying was busy, and most of the time, it was Zhou Yaning who was looking for her.
After Zhou Yaning sent her son to university, the company she worked in finally declared bankruptcy due to inequity. The employees bought out their seniority, and the company was bought by a big boss from outside the city. Due to her health, Zhou Yaning was no longer used to working in the company. She chose to apply for retirement according to a special job and go home to take care of her sickly body.
Zhou Yaning, who had calmed down, was not used to it at first. He was used to being busy. He didn't have to go to work and get off work regularly. He didn't have to get up early and work late for his son. He had a lot of free time. At first, he was still relaxed. However, after a long time, he became a little lonely. She started to think about her son, about the many things that had happened to him over the past ten years, about his laughter at home. She wanted to give him a call, but she was afraid that it would affect his studies. Even if she didn't call him, she couldn't suppress her longing for her son. Through her son's phone calls, Zhou Yaning knew that Zhao Ying was doing well in school. The class counselor was very appreciative of Zhao Ying and appointed Zhao Ying as the class monitor when she first entered university. Zhao Ying also competed for the position of the public relations department of the school's student union and was successful. Zhao Ying was like a fish in water in university, displaying her talents to the fullest.
Happy days always passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was the new year.
On the first day of the new year, Zhou Yaning was shopping for a woolen sweater for Zhao Feipeng. After twenty years of marriage, Zhao Feipeng had never bought a new piece of clothing for himself. Like all good men, he was diligent and thrifty in managing the family, earning money to pay his wife, not eating, drinking, gambling, or indulging in debauchery. He wholeheartedly saved money for his son's education. Now that Zhao Ying was in university, Zhou Yaning thought to herself,'I shouldn't make things difficult for my husband anymore. It's almost the New Year, so I should buy him a new set of clothes.'
As she was walking around the mall, Zhou Yaning's phone rang. She opened it and saw that she didn't recognize the number. Just as she was feeling puzzled, she picked it up. It was Zhao Ying."Why did you change your number again? You haven't even been in school for half a year and you've changed four numbers.”Zhou Yaning complained.
" Don't talk about it yet, Mom. I don't have any money left. There's still twenty yuan after the discount. Send me some money. I don't even have the money to go home." It's gone so quickly?" Zhou Yaning asked in confusion.
" Let's talk about it when we get home. It's hard to explain it in a few words," Zhao Ying said and hung up the phone.
Zhou Yaning hurriedly picked out a woolen sweater for Zhao Feipeng and returned home.
He then called Zhao Ying to interrogate her in detail. Zhao Ying said that a classmate's card was lost, so he lent the money to the classmate.
"You can report it lost. Who is it?”Zhou Yaning asked, and Zhao Ying vaguely said that she was a female classmate.
"Female classmate? How can I borrow money from you?" " Forget it. Forget it if you don't want to." Zhao Ying hung up the phone impatiently.
Zhou Yaning was at her in-laws 'house. Her mother-in-law, elder sister-in-law, and younger sister-in-law's family were guessing what had happened to Zhao Ying. Zhou Yaning couldn't help but call him again. After a few rounds of questioning, Zhao Ying finally revealed the truth. It turned out that he was dating a female classmate. He had spent a lot of money and didn't even have the money to go home. That was why he asked for help from his family.
When Zhao Feipeng heard that, he was furious. I let you go to university, not to date. You're so young, but you don't study hard. You're full of nonsense!
Zhou Yaning also shouted at Zhao Ying," Your dad can't even bear to buy a high-end sweater, but you're so good. You're spending so much money for a virgin friend. Are you letting us down?”As Zhou Yaning spoke, she cried out in grievance. The house was in chaos.
