Hearing Zhong Xuexi's voice, she closed her eyes obediently.

Zhong Xuexi breathed a sigh of relief, "Sister-in-law, I'll take care of the rest. You go and read my brother's letter."

Lin Ziqiu hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay." She turned around and picked up the coat that Ruan Qing was wearing. There was indeed a letter in the inner pocket.

Originally, this letter was placed together with the letter Meng Zhiwei wrote to Shen Xiu. At that time, Shen Xiu left in a hurry and forgot to give it to Lin Ziqiu.

When Ruan Qing left the Huang family, Shen Xiu asked her to pass the letter to Lin Ziqiu.

As a result, she met Ruan Cui and her son on the road, and after a lot of trouble, she forgot about it.

Lin Ziqiu held the envelope, feeling inexplicably nervous.

She didn't know what Zhong Heyang's current situation was. Huang Bin's matter had always worried her, and she was afraid that Zhong Heyang might be in danger.

The current plot has changed a lot from the original plot.

Even though Zhong Heyang made great contributions in this incident and was safe and sound in his previous life, it does not mean that things will develop in the same way in this life.

"Sister-in-law, what did my brother write in the letter?"

Zhong Xuexi's voice came from behind, and Lin Ziqiu withdrew his thoughts.

When I opened the letter, his powerful handwriting caught my eye.

"I'm glad to hear your letter."

"I really envy these words, they can cross thousands of miles of ice and see you on my behalf."

"..."

Endless longing is expressed on paper.

In her previous life, when she was an educated youth sent to the countryside, she envied others who could receive letters from their parents. She waited with hope many times, but never received the one that belonged to her.

Now, she finally received a letter from her.

It is a family letter, but also a love letter filled with longing and love.

Lin Ziqiu's eyes were filled with tears of emotion. With a slight blink, strings of crystal tears slid down, sparkling like pearls.

Her grip on the letter tightened little by little, and her heart, which had been tense all these days, finally relaxed after learning that he was safe and sound.

Zhong Xuexi had also finished applying the alcohol by now and walked to her side curiously, "Sister-in-law, why are you crying? Did something happen to my brother?"

Lin Ziqiu quickly raised her hand to wipe away her tears, "No, no, I just got sand in my eyes."

Zhong Xuexi was skeptical, "What did my brother write? Let me see!"

Lin Ziqiu was reluctant to give him the letter because the words in it were too corny. She was too embarrassed to show it to her sister-in-law, as she would definitely laugh at her.

"Nothing much, just asking about the situation at home. I'll go write him a letter, you stay here and look after A-Qing."

She hurriedly stood up and held her heart in her palm like a treasure, not wanting anyone else to touch it.

Zhong Xuexi muttered softly, "Why didn't you show it to me when you asked about the family situation? It's not a love letter..."

As she finished speaking, she seemed to realize something serious. Her eyes suddenly narrowed, and she covered her mouth and muttered to herself, "Could it be a love letter?"

She would never have believed that a man like her brother, who was not interested in women, could actually write a love letter! !

Miracle.

···

Lin Ziqiu returned to his room and picked and chose from the warehouse, trying to find a better-looking piece of stationery, and then took out a fine and expensive fountain pen.

For fear of making spelling mistakes, she even took some draft paper to practice her handwriting.

I haven't written seriously for a long time. When I think about how neat Zhong Heyang's handwriting is, it doesn't look like it can be written by a rough soldier.

Wouldn't it be embarrassing if my handwriting was terrible?

Lin Ziqiu practiced for a long time before she regained her original feeling, but when she put pen to paper, she felt like she had a thousand words to say but didn't know where to start.

If I was not satisfied with one, I would tear it up and write again.

After going back and forth many times, she finally decided to just write about the current situation at home. When she reached the end, she thought of what Zhong Heyang asked her in the letter.

"Will you blame me for not being there for you?"

Lin Ziqiu lowered his eyes and wrote a paragraph at the end:

"You belong not only to me but also to the motherland, so I am willing to give your protection to the motherland. I firmly believe that you will return to me safely."

“There are cracks in everything, and you are how the light gets in.”

When he finished writing the last word, Lin Ziqiu felt a warm current flowing through his heart. It turned out that love could ignore time and companionship, and could endure countless lonely nights.

She firmly believed that Zhong Heyang would be loyal to her throughout his life.

She was his only wife.

After writing the letter, Lin Ziqiu ran out excitedly to ask Zhong Xuexi for a stamp to put on it.

As a result, Zhong Xuexi flicked her forehead and said, "Sister-in-law, are you confused? In this weather, you dare to go out and mail a letter? The post office won't accept it!"

Lin Ziqiu finally reacted.

Yes, in this special situation, even going out is a problem, let alone sending a letter.

She sighed, her eyes showing an unconcealable loss.

Zhong Xuexi noticed her sadness and patted her on the back. "It's okay. When my brother comes back, you can read it to him in person. He will definitely be happier."

Read it to him?

When Lin Ziqiu thought of the words in her letter, her cheeks suddenly turned red and she was too shy to see anyone.

"Well...I'm a little hungry. I'll go downstairs to find something to eat."

Seeing her fleeing back, Zhong Xuexi felt a lot of emotions in her heart. Before, she only thought that her brother cared about Lin Ziqiu very much.

His kindness to Lin Ziqiu was not out of responsibility, but out of genuine love and protection for her.

And what about Lin Ziqiu?

She rarely expresses her feelings for her brother. She treats him as a husband with whom she lives together, and only wants to treat him with respect and fulfill her duties as a wife.

Even when it comes to money, she would rather work hard to earn it herself than spend her brother's.

She was too polite and reserved, giving people the feeling that she didn't want to owe the Zhong family anything.

But today, after reading her brother's letter, although she didn't know what the content was, she shed tears and felt sad and disappointed when she knew that the reply letter to her brother could not be sent.

This is enough to prove that she has feelings for her brother.

Zhong Xuexi breathed a sigh of relief, but when she turned around and saw Ruan Qing lying on the bed, she couldn't help but frown.

I hope Ruan Qing can truly let go of her obsession with her brother.

She can find her own happiness.

···

That night, physical cooling took effect and Ruan Qing's fever finally subsided.

For half a month, the rain became heavier day by day, coming with such force that it seemed as if it was going to swallow up the entire city.

Some neighbors came to borrow rice. Lin Ziqiu was not a stingy person, so he asked Zhong Zhiyang and Tian Xiaofeng to set up a ladder and deliver the rice from the roof.

The news spread from one family to another, and it was confirmed that no one in the entire military compound had starved to death.

But there are more and more collapsed places outside. Not only here, but also several other provinces have experienced heavy rains, which have seriously affected people's normal lives.

The number of people freezing to death or starving to death outside was increasing every day. At the military compound, everyone was also busy. Some people braved the heavy rain to deliver a letter, saying that they had food and could provide some support.
