893 I've Been Away
The morning sun shone into the house through the open glass window, and a refreshing morning breeze blew the soft curtains. Ye Fei held a cup of hot tea in the comfortable sofa and closed his eyes comfortably...
In order to protect the environment, there are few ground buildings and only one city on the ground. Most ordinary people live in huge dungeons, and only a small number of people are qualified to live in ground houses provided by the state for free. Usually these people are talents who have made special contributions to the country, and are senior officials in both military and political circles.
Of course, the environment of the dungeon is actually no different from the ground, and no one restricts ordinary people from leaving the dungeon. They are willing to see the scenery or something, and they can leave the dungeon at any time. There are also special hotels on the ground to do this business.
The reason why few people settle on the ground is because the living environment in the dungeon is not worse than the ground, and the state provides housing for free, and the ground house must pay high environmental management fees, so that the housing prices remain high, and even if you can afford it, you are unwilling to spend this unjust money.
Ye Fei, a lieutenant general, is just right, so the military gives him a set of ground housing, but life on the ground is not as perfect as imagined. If Gao Lan's hospital was not located in the capital area, she would rather live in the dungeon together.
Having been free for half a day in his memory, he has not been so leisurely and contented for a long time, and he has no need to think of anything in his mind.
It has been more than half a month since I came home. When I first came back, even my wife Gao Lan seemed a little unfamiliar, and her son Ye Qi publicly expressed dissatisfaction with joining the army. So much so that when everyone got together, they had no idea what to say.
Just like he is redundant in this home.
Fortunately, Gao Lan's understanding and tolerance made Ye Fei find the warmth of home again. Although his parents-in-law didn't know how to communicate with his son-in-law who is now a high-powered son-in-law, the two old men and Ye Fei had the same attitudes when preventing Ye Qi from joining the army. So after a few days of familiarity, they finally started to get up naturally when they got along.
The originally strange home gradually became familiar with Ye Fei, who had been wandering for so many years, finally found a sense of home. Inadvertently, the idea of raising old age is always flashing in his mind.
But then he would laugh again. He was only forty-four years old this year. At the age of young and strong, how could he suddenly have the idea of retirement?
Actually, it is not surprising that people who have this kind of thinking at a young age have suffered emotional blows and seen through the world; the other is soldiers like him who have been fighting for many years and are used to seeing a soldier who has been separated from life and death.
Although some people say that real soldiers should not die in bed, only those who have experienced the war know how happy it is to be able to grow old slowly with the company of their lovers.
"What are you thinking?" Gao Lan hugged Ye Fei's neck from behind.
Although he is in his forties, modern medical technology is also delaying human aging while continuing his life. Gao Lan, who is over forty years, looks like he is in his early twenties and walks with his son Ye Qi, unlike a mother and son, but rather like a sibling.
The extension of lifespan and the delay of aging are good things, but the latter also brings a lot of trouble. Many people in their fifties or even sixties or seventies look like they are in their early thirties. These disrespectful guys like to pretend to be young people and go on blind dates everywhere, fall in love with the next generation or even the next generation, etc. Many young people will first use their relationship to inquire about someone's real age when they have a lover.
Especially those who take the initiative to come to meet up with them.
Ye Fei smiled slightly, held the back of his wife's hand, and pulled her to sit on the armrest of the sofa: "I didn't think about anything, where is Ye Qi?"
"What game is still playing?" Gao Lan, who hugged her husband, sighed helplessly.
The game Ye Qi plays is the most popular space simulation strategy game for Base Star. All parties in the game are real, including humans, Atlantis, Disc tribes, Scale tribes, Wood tribes, and even the finished outer bones.
The large number of warships used by various forces is also real, but the warships on only one side of humans are basically true. Most of the warships of other forces are added by fleets after encountering enemy warships on the battlefield, and some of them are directly derived from the player's design.
The open game structure makes this game very free. Players can trade with various forces in the game, or build fleets to fight against all forces, which is simply moving the real world into the computer.
"Oh, it's okay, let him play." Ye Fei was also very helpless. His son was grown up and he could no longer control his father.
Gao Lan comforted weakly: "In the future, if you father and son have time, you will get along with each other slowly."
Ye Fei put down the teacup and smiled bitterly: "I hope, time passes so quickly."
Gao Lan didn't say anything, but just hugged Ye Fei tightly in his arms, just like you were afraid that he would disappear suddenly.
Although she never mentioned it to Ye Fei, she was also part of the army. She had learned in detail about the process of counterattacking the solar system or breaking into the Atlantis Star Kingdom and knew everything well.
Every time she started a war, she was worried. She woke up in the middle of the night because of dreaming that Ye Fei was killed, unable to sleep all night and waited lonely until dawn with her eyes open.
Ye Fei was not here, no matter how hard or difficult she felt, she could not tell others, let alone Ye Fei who was fighting ahead. However, the end of the war was still far away. Until now, she still couldn't tell when the two of them would be truly reunited.
Sometimes, she really wished to clone a Ye Fei and put it at home to accompany her.
Ye Fei reached out his hand and hugged his wife's waist, feeling like something was blocked in his heart. He had countless words to say, but when he reached his mouth, he couldn't say another word, and in the end he was speechless.
As a soldier, he is worthy of the country, but as a man, he is worthy of his wife and children.
Suddenly, the kitchen door opened, and my mother-in-law Lu Lanzhi walked out with a steaming bun. After seeing the warm couple, she suddenly showed a naughty smile: "Youyou, why are you two getting tired of it this early in the morning? Come on, hurry up and help me carry the plates and have dinner!"
Gao Lan and Ye Fei’s old couple naturally would not separate because of Lu Lanzhi’s words. Gao Lan still hugged Ye Fei’s shoulder openly: “Mom, what do you mean by saying, what do you mean by getting tired of you again?”
"Oh, you damn girl are talking back, come and help!" Lu Lanzhi scolded half-truely.
Ye Fei patted his wife's arm and smiled and said, "Go." After that, he got up and walked towards the dining table. (To be continued...)
