Chapter 15

The sun gradually rose high with the arrival of the morning. My wife Chen Xue and I woke up at the same time. Today is the day when my wife set out to rescue the disaster area. After getting up, my wife and I had breakfast together. After that, I helped my wife simply organize her suitcases and stuffed them into the car one by one. Because today will be the day when my wife and I part, I will drive my wife to the meeting place of the rescue team. It can be regarded as a way for me to send my wife to the journey as a husband.

After everything was ready, my wife and I drove our car. Neither of my wife nor I spoke on the way to the meeting place. Maybe it was because we knew that we would say goodbye and parted immediately. In order not to separate in a sad way, the best way was to keep silent between each other.

Not long after, my wife and I drove to the meeting point designated by the rescue team, where a tourist bus was parked with the body saying "Rescue Team"

There were four big words, and there were not many people sitting in the car, so they probably hadn't arrived yet. Then my wife and I got out of the car and moved the suitcase in the car to the inner warehouse at the bottom of the rescue vehicle. Then I stood aside and watched my wife take out her ID card and teacher qualification certificate and handed it to the person in charge of the rescue team for review. After detailed verification and review, the person in charge of the rescue team handed his wife a badge, which probably should be the document of the rescue team.

After completing a series of matters, my wife walked up to me and finally said to me, "Dear husband, I'm leaving soon. I will miss you. And you must take good care of yourself at home. I will call you often."

After hearing my wife's words, I suppressed my nose and said, "Dear wife, I will take good care of myself, I will miss you too, so go with peace of mind. I am your strong backing. If you have any needs there, call me and I will send it to you personally."

Through a series of farewell words with my wife Chen Xue, I felt an indescribable reluctance and sadness in my heart. In order not to show my emotions on my face, I forced myself to hold my sadness and sent my wife into the rescue team's car. After that, talents from all fields who came here one after another made a brief farewell with their relatives and friends and got on the bus. Some said goodbye with tears in their hearts and tears, some said goodbye with laughter, and some actually said goodbye with the same reluctance and sadness as we did the final farewell.

Just after all the staff arrived, the car door was slowly closed, and then the car also rang out a long sound. As the long sound ended, I watched the rescue team's car slowly leave here until it completely disappeared from my sight. Then I drove my Land Rover away with a reluctant mood to start my new day's work.

As my wife left, time passed very quickly. It was the second day after my wife left. The phone number I called to my wife in the past two days was not available, and I didn’t know if my wife had arrived there. It was really worrying. On the third day, my wife finally called me. My wife told me on the phone that she had arrived at her destination safely and told me not to worry about her.

I also explained to me that their car had to pass through many mountains while driving. Since the disaster area was a remote mountainous area, there were many roads in the mountainous area, and the roads were rugged and difficult to drive, it was necessary to bypass each mountain. Therefore, for everyone's safety, their car had been driving slowly in the mountains, which led to no signal on her mobile phone. So she never called me. Moreover, my wife's mobile phone signal is very unstable now, and there may be no signal at any time.

When I learned all this, I felt much more relieved. When I was about to say something to my wife, the phone number on my wife suddenly disappeared. I didn’t see any movement for a long time. I immediately hung up the phone and called again. As a result, the phone prompted that the phone number you called could not be connected for the time being. Please dial it later.

It seems that my wife’s cell phone has no signal again, so she can only wait for her to call me on her own initiative. If my wife’s cell phone has a signal, she will definitely call me as soon as possible.

As time waited, it was getting darker. When I thought my wife would not call the phone back, my phone actually called. I immediately picked up the phone and saw that it was the phone call from my wife. I quickly answered my wife's call.

Then my wife's voice came from the other side of the phone, and my wife said to me, Husband, this place is really too remote, the phone always has no signal. I couldn't get through your phone after a long time. It wasn't until now that there was a little signal, so I tried to call you, afraid that you would be anxious, but it turned out really. Hehe

After hearing what my wife said intermittently on the phone, I quickly said to my wife, "Wife, I'm not in a hurry. My husband knows that your signal is not good, and what you say is intermittent now, but I can understand every word you say. It seems that the signal on your side is really bad.

At this time, my wife said, "There's nothing, just listen to it. My dear, I don't know how long this phone call will last. Maybe it will suddenly be disconnected again in a while, so let's hurry up and talk, hehe,

Now it seems that calling your wife is a big problem. There is really nothing we can do. In order to avoid sudden disconnection, let’s talk about it immediately. Then my wife and I said, “Wife, how is your current situation? How did the rescue team arrange it for you?

My wife immediately told me that the situation here is like this. Since we came late, the disaster here is not that bad. The province's special emergency rescue team has already dealt with almost the same. At present, all we have to do is just aftermath work. I was specially arranged to live in the school temporarily, so that it is also to make it easier for me to teach. As for others, they have been arranged to do their own work in each small village.

After listening to my wife's narration, I quickly said, "How can they bear to arrange you to live in school alone? I just experienced a major earthquake. Is the school safe?Can't they let you live in the classroom?

My wife quickly explained, Dear husband, don’t be excited. It’s not that I was allowed to live in the school classroom. The school classroom has been damaged. The rescue team arranged for me to live in Mr. Niu’s house not far outside the school. Since Mr. Niu is the person in charge of the school guarding the school and has been professionally guarding the safety of the school for many years, the province specially approved the tiled house built by Mr. Niu to give priority to help Mr. Niu build the tiled house. Since winter is about to begin, it is too late to build a new residence, so the rescue team arranged for me to live in Mr. Niu’s house for a while.

I was stunned when I heard my wife's answer, but I still pretended to be calm and asked my wife if it would be inappropriate to live in Mr. Niu's house, and will his family be disgusted with him.

Then my wife said to me again, Mr. Niu has always lived alone. He has no wife and children. Mr. Niu is also very enthusiastic about keeping me here. What's wrong with it? Besides, I just arrived here and I still have a lot of things I don't understand. I need advice from Mr. Niu. This is just someone who can take me to understand the situation of the school. Really, hum.

When I was about to continue to answer my wife's words, the phone suddenly became disconnected. At this critical moment, the phone was disconnected and I caught me off guard. I suddenly felt panic. I began to worry that it was my wife who took the initiative to hang up or because there was no signal suddenly.
