After my stepmother was shot, I took my brothers to the countryside

On the other hand, when Zhang Cong heard that Zhang Fengfeng was going to take him and his sister to the city to see their mother, he still couldn't believe it and felt a little worried.

"Aunt, do we...really have to go to the city to find grandpa and grandma?" Zhang Cong pursed his lips, with a hint of uncertainty in his voice.

Zhang Fengfeng heard this and rolled her eyes at him angrily: "Why would I lie to you? Wasn't your mother injured too? I don't know what's wrong with her now. Don't you want to go see her?"

"Go! Little girl, I want to find my mother!"

When Zhang Hui heard this, her eyes lit up instantly and she shouted at the top of her voice.

They were afraid that Zhang Fengfeng would change her mind because of her brother's words and would not take them to find their parents.

Seeing Zhang Hui's eagerness, Zhang Fengfeng was secretly delighted and quickly struck while the iron was hot, speaking in an exceptionally gentle tone:

"Then let's go to town and buy some things now, then ask the captain for a letter of introduction when we get back, and then leave for the city early tomorrow morning, how about that?"

After hearing this, Zhang Hui nodded her head like a chick pecking at rice. As long as she could go find her mother, she would do whatever her aunt said.

"By the way, aunt, does Xiaoying want to come with us to find her mother?" Zhang Hui asked. Second aunt and uncle are also in the city. Xiaoying should want to find them too, right?

Hearing Xiaoying's name, Zhang Fengfeng immediately became furious. She gnashed her teeth and cursed with displeasure:

"Hmph, that ungrateful Xiaoying! I went to look for her, but she didn't want to go with us. She's right, it wasn't her mother who was injured or had a broken leg, so it's normal for her not to be worried or anxious. Let's just ignore her. With you two accompanying her, she'll feel much more at ease."

Originally, Zhang Cong still had some concerns in his heart, but seeing his sister's joyful face and his worry about his mother prevailing, those concerns were diluted a lot.

After the three of them had discussed it, they didn't delay any longer. They locked the door in a hurry and hurriedly left the house, heading towards the town.

……

"Feng Ya, are you saying that you and Jin Dong are going to the city to visit your mother?"

The captain looked at the two people in front of him, his expression complicated beyond words, as if he had overturned a bottle of five flavors.

Zhang Fengfeng nodded vigorously, her eyes filled with anxiety. "Captain, my father and his family have been gone for so many days and haven't written back. I've been so worried that I can't sleep all night, so I want to go to the city to see them."

"Then he..." The captain looked at Zhou Jindong beside him with a scrutinizing look in his eyes.

"I asked Brother Jin Dong to accompany me. I'm a girl and have never been far away. What if I encounter any danger? I feel more at ease knowing that Brother Jin Dong is with me."

As Zhang Fengfeng spoke, she secretly glanced at Jin Dong beside her, and a faint blush appeared on her cheeks.

Zhou Jindong also nodded at this moment, looking directly at the captain: "Captain, I am worried about Feng Ya going out as a girl, and I also want to go to the city to take a look, so please help us get a letter of introduction!"

After hearing this, the captain looked as if he had been hit by a knife and was really enlightened.

He crossed his arms over his chest and paced back and forth a few steps. "You youngsters, you're always giving me headaches! If you can't get a letter of introduction, go back!"

In the end, the team leader refused to issue a letter of introduction to Zhang Fengfeng and the other person.

This single man and woman were going to such a far place together. If something happened on the way, could he, as the team leader, treat it as a small matter? It would be a big deal if he couldn't explain it to the couple's parents.

When Zhang Fengfeng heard the captain's refusal, she immediately became anxious: "Captain! Just give us a letter of introduction! I'm really worried about my mother. If anything happens to her, I... I..."

As she spoke, Zhang Fengfeng's eyes turned red and tears welled up in them, making her look very pitiful.

Seeing this, Zhou Jindong also hurriedly chimed in: "Captain, please write us a letter of introduction. Feng Ya is worried about her mother and wants to see her in person. I can also represent our team and go see my aunt, right?"

The captain frowned, his face serious. "This isn't a question of representation! Our little place is relatively peaceful, but the world out there is much more complicated. You two are young and haven't experienced much. What if you run into a bad guy? If something goes wrong, how am I going to explain it to your families?"

"Captain..." Zhang Fengfeng wanted to plead again.

"Stop talking. We won't issue you a letter of introduction! Go back and take care of your nephews and nieces, and wait for your parents to come back at home." The captain interrupted Zhang Fengfeng with a firm tone, leaving no room for negotiation.

When Zhang Fengfeng heard the captain's repeated refusal, she stared at him with some vicious eyes.

She secretly swore in her heart that when she, Zhang Fengfeng, became successful, she would never give these people a good face! When the time comes, no matter what they want to ask her for help, she will never agree!

The two of them left the captain's office. Zhang Fengfeng looked very sad, tears streaming down her face, as if she had suffered a great injustice.

"Brother Jin Dong, what should we do? The captain doesn't want to give us a letter of introduction. Is it really impossible for me to go to the city to see my mother?"

Zhou Jindong looked at Zhang Fengfeng's sad and helpless appearance, and suddenly thought of what happened to Shi Shengxia when he went to the town alone before, and his heart ached.

He failed to protect Shengxia at that time, so now he must protect Fengya to make up for his regret.

So he reached out and patted Zhang Fengfeng on the shoulder, and gently comforted her: "Fengya, don't worry. If the captain doesn't give us a letter of introduction, we'll find a way to go to the city on our own."

Zhang Fengfeng looked up in surprise when she heard this, her eyes filled with hope, yet also a bit of worry. "Brother Jindong, how are we going to get there without a letter of introduction? I'm afraid we won't even be able to get on the bus without one."

"It's okay, leave it to me! Go home and wait for my news."

After Zhou Jindong finished speaking, he turned around and went home. He pulled a carrot from the yard, went back to his room, and closed the door tightly.

He had seen the captain issue a letter of introduction before. It was nothing more than a piece of letter paper and a seal. He had just seen where the captain had put the letter paper, but he didn't know where the captain had hidden the seal.

Then he could just make a seal himself and get a few letters of introduction, and that would be it! He could write whatever he wanted then.

Instead of asking the captain for help, it is better to rely on yourself!

After dark, the entire brigade fell into a deep sleep, with only the occasional barking of dogs coming from the back mountain.

Zhou Jindong seized the opportunity, secretly came to the brigade office, took out a pair of scissors, aimed at the door lock, and in a few seconds, the door lock was opened by him.

After opening the door, Zhou Jindong didn't delay and went straight to the drawer where the letter of introduction was placed, but the drawer was also locked.

The corners of Zhou Jindong's mouth twitched a few times in disdain. This little thing couldn't defend him.

After getting the letter of introduction as he wished, Zhou Jindong dipped the carrot seal he had prepared in advance into red ink and then stamped it on the letter of introduction.

Looking at the bright red "official seal" printed on the letter of introduction, Zhou Jindong's heart was filled with luck.

He quickly stuffed the letter of introduction into his pocket, put the drawer back in order, and then walked out of the office as if nothing had happened.

After receiving the letter of introduction, Zhou Jindong and Zhang Fengfeng couldn't wait to set off for the city overnight without waiting for dawn.
