When the bus arrived at the village, Hu Sai got off the bus. He came to the river and sat on the grass, wanting to take care of himself. The wheat harvest on the south bank of the river has been completed, and most of the land has been planted with autumn soybeans. In the uncultivated wheat fields, cattle and sheep graze or rest freely. The river water glows with various colors under the sun, and wild ducks appear in the willow bushes by the river from time to time. Hu Sai thought of Mai Yan and was glad that he defeated his inner demon today and did not make an unforgivable mistake. I will bury my feelings for Maiyan deeply in my heart, he said silently to himself. Hu Sai stood up and stared into the distance with squinted eyes. He vaguely saw a woman picking something in the field. Then he thought of his wife and felt that he owed her a lot. In the past few years, her wife had been taking care of all the work at home. As for me, I regarded myself as a hands-off shopkeeper, but she was still so good to me.

My cousin is gone. My cousin gave up his life for the honor of the youth commandos and ended his young life for the dignity of being a human being. In the days when I lost my cousin, I often burst into tears alone, recalling my cousin's short life and the time I spent with him. Not long after his cousin died, Team Leader Li was transferred to the county, and the Youth Commando also existed in name only. Another unexpected blow to me was that Ding Ling was going to marry in the city. This was what my mother told me.
