A talented girl wears a silly dress and marries a general to become a koi

Chapter 111 Xiang Guodong's suicide note

At this moment, the setting sun shines through the window onto the desk, and time seems to have stopped at this moment.

Li Yonggang and Liu Junhui did not speak. Their eyes swept across every corner of the office, and an indescribable heaviness surged in their hearts.

Xiang Guodong's desk was neat and tidy, with documents and books neatly arranged on it, as if he had just been working here.

On the desk, there is a small picture frame, which is a photo of Xiang Guodong's family of three.

In the photo, Xiang Guodong's determined eyes and confident smile are vivid, and Xiang Guodong's simple lover's eyes seem to be looking forward to a better life in the future.

Especially the young Xiang Junlan, she sat on her mother's lap, her mother held her with both hands, her pair of bright eyes were looking into the distance...

Li Yonggang walked to the desk and gently stroked the office supplies that Xiang Guodong had used for many years, his heart filled with sighs.

He remembered Xiang Guodong's sincere cultivation and earnest expectations for him, and those passionate words echoed in his ears.

He recalled Xiang Guodong's bravery and command on the battlefield, which set an example for him and made him understand how to be a good battlefield commander.

He recalled the tragic scene where Xiang Guodong flew to save Junhui and he sacrificed his baby's life...

Liu Junhui was already in tears.

There is no doubt that at this moment, what Liu Junhui thought and felt was even more thrilling than Li Yonggang's.

Neither of them spoke, but silently sorted out Xiang Guodong's belongings, carefully placing each item into an iron box.

Both of them cherish Xiang Guodong's relics very much, and their actions seem to be protecting Xiang Guodong's soul.

In this quiet office, Li Yonggang and Liu Junhui both seemed to feel the presence of Xiang Guodong's spirit.

Finally, Li Yong was about to open the drawer of Xiang Guodong's desk to sort out the relics, but the middle drawer was locked tightly.

He first opened the drawer on the right and took out the military books and study notes inside.

Among these books, Liu Junhui, who was standing next to Li Yonggang, found a book she was familiar with, "Pacific Military Strategy in Peacetime".

This was exactly the thick book that Xiang Guodong was reading intently on the train.

Liu Junhui solemnly opened the book and saw circles and dots in red pen, as well as paragraphs of annotations with strong strokes.

Commander Qing said that Xiang Guodong was a talented general, so he was keen on studying military strategy.

After Li Yonggang took out all the books and study notes from the drawer on the right, when he was closing the drawer, he suddenly found a small copper key in one corner that had been dulled by the erosion of time.

This is?

Li Yonggang had an idea and picked up the key. He inserted it into the keyhole of the middle drawer and turned it clockwise.

Click!

The lock opened.

Li Yonggang opened the drawer, and a different scent hit him in the face.

In the drawer, there were some curled-up coins, some old food coupons, a few cloth coupons, and a watch coupon.

At the very back of the drawer, there was a large envelope.

Li Yonggang opened the big envelope and found a passbook and a dozen dollars in it.

After counting, the thick stack of money plus the money in the passbook totaled three thousand one hundred and fifty yuan.

There was also a piece of paper with a short message on it...

On the night before the expedition, Captain Xiang Guodong was alone in his office, silently packing his luggage.

His eyes revealed determination and resoluteness, but he knew that he was the captain of the spearhead team and was very likely to die on the battlefield.

So he gently opened the middle drawer, which contained all his savings.

At that moment, his heart was filled with love and concern for his only relative - his six-year-old daughter Xiang Junlan.

He knew that he would most likely not be able to raise his daughter himself, but he hoped that the money could provide some help for her growth.

He picked up a pen and wrote a letter to the organization.

In the letter, he asked the organization to help him find a good woman who would raise his daughter for life after his death.

At this moment, Liu Junhui was holding the letter in both hands and reading it with a heavy expression. Li Yonggang was standing behind her, also staring at the contents of the letter.

it reads.

"My dear leaders, before I leave, I have a favor to ask of you.

If I unfortunately die in this war, please use this money as support for my daughter.

My daughter is a child without a mother. I believe that the organization will help me find a responsible and good woman who can raise my daughter like a mother.

I hope that under the care of this good woman, my daughter can grow up to be a useful person to the country and society.

I'll use some of the money I have left to buy a bicycle for the good woman who raised my daughter.

......"

Liu Junhui couldn't hold it in any longer, and suddenly she lay down on the table and burst into tears, her tears soaking the piece of letter paper.

Li Yonggang also burst into tears, tears streaming down his face.

Li Yonggang shed tears and choked up, "Junhui, when the captain wrote this letter, he didn't think of you raising his daughter, so he asked the organization to help him find a good woman to raise his daughter.

Your outstanding performance on the battlefield made him believe that you were someone he could rely on, so in his last moments before his death, he entrusted his daughter to you."

After hearing this, Liu Junhui nodded repeatedly as if he was knocking his head on the table.

“Well…even I feel like I’m only eighteen years old, can I be a mother to a six-year-old?

I was too young... He must have thought of that... But he saw what I did on the battlefield with his own eyes, so in the end he believed me..."

Li Yonggang gently stroked Liu Junhui's shoulders with both hands, "Junhui, don't let Xiang Guodong down. Together with you, I will help raise his daughter Xiang Junlan into a talented person!"

Liu Junhui slowly stood up and looked at Li Yonggang with tears in her eyes.

"Yonggang, thank you for your support! Together, let's pass on Xiang Guodong's great spirit to his daughter, and let Xiang Junlan be as brave, strong, and kind as her father!"

Liu Junhui will always remember that her life was bought by Xiang Guodong at his own expense, and she must keep her promise to raise Xiang Junlan no matter what.

Many years later, Xiang Junlan stood in front of her father's grave, and told her father with a heart full of gratitude and respect that her stepmother was the best mother!

Liu Junhui looked at the setting sun outside the window and felt that it was still early and there was still time to go to Xiang Junlan's school.

"Yonggang, I want to go to the elementary school where Xiang Junlan goes to see her now!"
