Although Zhang Lanfen sympathized with the Zhou family’s experience, he still went to do the ideological work of Dianthus, saying that the political office and the county party committee would move her and her children’s household registration to the street, provided that one of the children was sent to the countryside to jump in the queue. Zhou Xiaoyang is about to join the army, and the whole family feels upset. Only Zhou Xiaoliu’s heart is open, claiming that it’s no big deal to be a soldier, and even put the word “death” on his lips, so angry that Dianthus slapped her on the spot.
In fact, Zhou Xiaoliu was more reluctant than anyone else, but she didn’t know how to express. After Zhou Xiaoyang comforted his sister, he went to bid farewell to Zhao Yingtong. When Shi Zhu learned of this, he quietly peeled eggs at home and waited for him to return. Zhou Xiaoyang never understood Dianthus’s painstaking efforts. He was really worried about Zhao Yingtong. He could only use his own military service and asked Dianthus not to be too unsympathetic towards Lin Yueru and Zhao Yingtong.
Facing the request of the elder son, Shi Zhu admitted that she was not a hard-hearted person, so she would still regard Zhao Yingtong as her good daughter-in-law, and she would take out the eggs she had originally prepared. Zhou Xiaoyang was moved.
On the day of joining the army, the family saw off in the street, Shizhu and Zhao Yingtong wept bitterly, and the others were even more sad. Afraid that Zhao Yingtong and Zhou Xiaoyang would hold hands in public, Sima Jun would grab the handle, so he mercilessly pulled away the hands of the two.
After Zhou Xiaoyang left, Zhao Yingtong begged Dianthus to let herself go with the army. Although Dianthus did not agree, she was still unbearable to comfort him. He didn’t expect Sima Jun to appear suddenly, so he could only say cruel words to her. Keep all the debts in mind, thinking about making up for the other party in the future.
Sima Jun was very happy about Dianthus’s act of understanding current affairs and arranged for her to meet Zhou Qing. After finally getting the chance to visit, Dianthus hurriedly prepared things. When he was about to leave the house, he saw a few children rushing in, and one after another proposed to go with her. However, the number of places is limited, and it is impossible for her to drag the family with her, so she urges them to stay and guard the house until they come back.
After a long time, Zhou Qing saw his wife again and couldn’t help feeling full of emotions. The two recalled the past when they met and loved each other, and finally found some comfort. In order not to hurt her family, Zhou Qing took the initiative to file for divorce with Shizhu, but she categorically refused. However, even so, the divorce is still a foregone conclusion, and Zhou Qing directly filed a divorce application with Jiang Zhenhai.
After Sima Jun learned that Zhou Qing had met Dianthus, he still chose to get a divorce, so he decided that he was going to fight to the end, so he first qualitative Zhou Qing, and then reported the other party’s problem to the military region. Sima Jun wanted Zhou Qing to bear the main responsibility for Zhao Ruhai’s defection. The Provincial Military Region quickly issued an order to withdraw all his duties and transfer him to the Xingkai Lake Farm in Heilongjiang Reclamation Area for labor reform.
Zhou Qing accepted it happily, but Dianthus was emotional and scolded Sima Jun for unpredictable intentions on the spot. Even though Dianthus is unwilling to sign a divorce, her marriage with Zhou Qing has been judged. Before leaving, Zhou Qing still hadn’t been able to meet the children, and soon had to be escorted to Xingkai Lake Farm.
The separation is imminent, Dianthus is heartbroken, crying that he will always be Zhou Qing’s wife and that this family will never leave. As Zhou Qing left, all the regiment soldiers stood on both sides, and everyone stopped to salute, thus expressing their respect for the old leader. Zhou Qing was very moved, and only returned a military salute to everyone when he walked to the door. Jiang Zhenhai believed from the bottom of his heart that he was a man and stood silently in front of the window to salute, except for Sima Jun with a solemn expression.
