Chapter 171 The most decadent time

When passing by the old banyan tree at the entrance of the alley, Zhuo Yanqing reached out and picked off a leaf, turning the petiole between his fingertips.

Su Banxia thought that he would use silence instead of answering.

Just as he was about to change the subject, he suddenly said, "This disappearance has dealt a huge blow to my family. My grandma is still in the hospital. In order to allow the old man to live a few more years, I applied."

Su Banxia opened her mouth and instinctively wanted to ask him, if this is the case, why is your tone so sarcastic.

Ever since she learned about the relationship between Zhuo Yanqing and Meng Xingyu, Su Banxia had always been wary of him, but now when she raised her eyes, she saw the loneliness on his face. After a moment of silence, Su Banxia softened her tone and said, "

Why did you join the army at that time?

Zhuo Yanqing loosened his fingers and the leaves fell down. "My grandfather was a soldier. I almost grew up with the sound of trumpets. The belief of protecting the family and the country has been engraved in my bones since I was a child."

He smiled self-deprecatingly, "Only now do I realize that these beliefs cannot support me."

He still remembered that on the day he left, his soldiers came to see him. Some were reluctant to leave, some were scolding, and some were silent. At that moment, he suddenly felt a little aggrieved.

But when he really wanted to say something, he realized that he felt a little aggrieved and had to swallow it by himself.

The two of them were silent all the way until they reached the vegetable market, where people were coming and going, and it was noisy and lively.

Su Banxia looked at this familiar scene and raised the corners of her lips, "Have you ever thought that protecting your home and country is not something you can only do in the army?"

The history she studied during this period told her that there are many outstanding people expressing their love for the motherland in their own way.

She pointed at the people setting up stalls, "Let's just talk about them. In ancient times, merchants had a low status, but when foreigners invaded and dynasties changed, didn't these merchants contribute to the defense of the country?"

Let’s not talk about the past, let’s talk about the future generations where she lives. It’s hard for people to survive, but everyone is working hard to protect this country.

She just pointed with her hand and spoke in an understatement. In fact, Zhuo Yanqing understood the truth, but at this moment, Zhuo Yanqing still felt a lot more relaxed.

"I have been out of the army for a few days, and I have been at home since I came back."

Zhuo Yanqing smiled, with a rare hint of dejection in his tone, "My dream since I was a child is to be a soldier, and I have been working hard for it for the past twenty years. Suddenly one day I left that place, and I discovered

, my life has lost its purpose and I don’t know what to do next.”

He remembered what his father said to him when he knocked on the door this morning, "Yan Qing, have you been the most decadent in the past two days?"

He couldn't argue.

I would sleep until ten o'clock every day, go to the hospital without eating breakfast, talk to my grandma, or stay in a daze until grandma went to bed and then go home.

If his father hadn't asked this question, he would have wanted to wait to see them again.

"I think if I don't become a doctor, I don't know what I should do." Su Banxia shrugged without the image of an heir to an aristocratic family.

Unlike Zhuo Yanqing, the path she would take in the future was determined from the moment she was born.

When she was young and frivolous, she also thought about resisting, but every time the words came to her lips, she didn't know what to say.

What does she like? What does she want to do?

After thinking about it, it still has something to do with the doctor.

"But I think ..." Su Banxia looked up at him, and his tone was firm. "If I really can't do a doctor, what I want to do will still be related to this."
