Chapter 1971: Brothers For Life
“Brother Xiao Ding, your brothers and sisters have come to bring you home together. That means that they are very good to you. They have been thinking of you. They will dote on you and treat you well when you go back! Brother Xiao Ding, when you go back, you must study hard. When you join the army in the future, you must be as great as Uncle Lu! When you grow up, you must remember to look for us!”
“Xiao Ding, we have to be brothers for the rest of our lives, so you must remember us even if you go home!”
“Don’t worry. I’ll leave the village’s number with you. I’ll call you when I’m free!” Xiao Ding patted his chest confidently. “You too. When you find your family, you must inform me. You must keep in touch!”
Jiang Yao felt a warmth in her heart as she sat in the car on her way back to school. Children’s vows had a type of power that could warm people.
Jiang Yao did not know if Xiao Ding and the others would still remember their vows when they grew up. She also wondered if they would part ways when they grew up, if they would remember their brothers who had shared their hardships.
Big Ke whistled as he drove, feeling happy.
“Sometimes fate is wonderful. I didn’t expect Xiao Ding to be the younger brother that Ding Xiaomei had been looking for all that time.” Big Ke clicked his tongue. “Xiao Ding’s father has done all kinds of nasty things. It’s pitiful that his son and daughter are suffering. But it’s good. Everything is over since his death.”
Ah Lu glanced at Big Ke. He felt that Big Ke had become more sentimental.
Jiang Yao sat in the back seat and laughed softly, echoing Big Ke’s words. She held her phone and sent a text message to Lu Xingzhi. She told him that Xiao Ding was Ding Xiaomei’s younger brother.
She called Lu Xingzhi, but he did not pick up the phone. Jiang Yao thought that he was probably busy and did not have his phone with him.
He would call her back when he saw her text message.
The sky was beautiful. When Jiang Yao returned, it had only been drizzling. Less than ten minutes after she returned to the classroom, the rain got heavier again.
Wu Boyan and the others were taking a break in the classroom. When Jiang Yao opened the door, everyone was shocked.
“Miss Jiang is back!” Liu Chao jumped up immediately as if he was sitting on a spring.
“Yes, I’m back after I finish my work.”
Jiang Yao looked at the group of people who looked like primary school students who had done something wrong and were waiting to be scolded. She was in a good mood, so she was more tolerant. Instead, she smiled faintly. “Don’t stand like that. I’m not here to lecture you. It’s not good to sit in the classroom all day. When it’s time to empty your mind, you should relax.” Liu Chao immediately heaved a sigh of relief. “You scared me to death. I didn’t expect you to be so easy to talk to, Miss Jiang. ”
“If the rain continues, the school will close for two days.’
Wu Boyan pushed the glasses up onto the bridge of his nose and said, “Many buildings have flooded. The first floor of the lower-lying buildings has already become like a swimming pool. The university is usually closed this time of the year anyway. This year should be no exception..”
