Chapter 10 From now on I am your brother!
Looking at the innocent Chen Xiaozui in front of him, Cun Yunsheng remained silent for a moment.

He didn't know whether he should say it or not.

Because he knew that the other person's belief in living was her brother.

In order to find her brother, unfortunately, she spared no effort.

If I told her that her brother had passed away long ago, she would definitely not be able to accept it.

But when he thought of what Chen Xiaojiu said, Cun Yunsheng knew that he shouldn't hide it.

The other party has the right to know, even if the result is unacceptable.

Thinking of this, Cun Yunsheng took a deep breath, looked at the other party, and said in a heavy tone.

"Although that guy just now was a bit of an asshole, he was right about one thing."

As soon as these words were spoken, Chen Xiaozui covered her mouth and began to sob. She had guessed it.

Although I didn't quite believe it before, I saw the other party's confident look.

She already had a premonition.

Now hearing Cun Yunsheng say this, she naturally couldn't help crying.

"The Sichuan Army Corps your brother was in was indeed completely wiped out in a battle, with only a few people surviving."

"He is a hero. Countless people will remember their heroic deeds in the future." Cun Yunsheng's voice was very tragic, especially when the scene of the cruel battlefield flashed through his mind, his eyes were red for a moment.

Although lies can make the other person live a carefree life, he cannot do this kind of deception.

What's more, he promised Chen Xiaojiu that he would take good care of her.

Therefore, it is better to suffer a short pain than a long one. Let time erase all this.

He believes that all of this will be smoothed out over time.

"Have you seen my brother?" Chen Xiaozui wiped her tears and asked in a slightly crying voice.

Because she could tell from Cun Yunsheng's tone that the other party must have met his brother.

"Well, I once led the troops to support the position where your brother was, but when I rushed to the position, they had been completely wiped out."

"After a bloody battle, when we were retaking the position, we unexpectedly found your brother. At that time, he was being crushed by several Japanese soldiers' corpses."

"At that time, he was still alive and left a message, 'I have a sister named Chen Xiaozui. If you meet her, I hope you can take care of her for me.'"

"I'm sorry, but after I said this, my brother died heroically."

"At that time, the Japanese army launched another attack. Time was tight, so I could only bury the bodies that could be identified on the battlefield. Your brother was among them."

Cun Yunsheng's words made Chen Xiaozui cry heart-wrenchingly.

Especially Chen Xiaojiu, who was still thinking about her before he died.

It made her feel extremely uncomfortable, and at the same time she felt that her faith had collapsed.

"elder brother……"

Seeing Chen Xiaozui crying loudly, the eyes of several soldiers behind him also became red, and it was obvious that they were also thinking of their comrades who once depended on each other.

"Your brother is a hero and the pride of our Sichuan Army." Cun Yunsheng didn't know how to comfort the other party.

It would have been fine if you didn't say it, because once you said it the other person cried even harder.

After the other person's tears dried up and his voice became hoarse, Chen Xiaozui finally came to his senses. He looked at Cun Yunsheng with an apologetic expression.

"I'm sorry, sir, I made you laugh."

"No need to apologize. I should be the one to apologize. Maybe it would be better if I didn't know." Cun Yunsheng also felt a little regretful. He was a little impulsive in letting the other party know.

"Sir, thank you for letting me know the truth. I don't blame you, but I am very grateful to you." Chen Xiaozui shook her head. She did not blame the other party, but was very grateful.

"Xiaozui, before your brother died, he asked me to take good care of you. From today on, you are my sister. If anyone dares to bully you again, I will never let him off easily." Looking at Chen Xiaozui in front of him, he was determined to die.

Yes, he had already seen that Chen Xiaozui had no desire to live.

So he had to make the other party regain his desire to live. "Promise me that you will live well, and when the war is over, we will send your brother home and let his soul return to his homeland." Cun Yunsheng thought for a moment and said again.

Hearing this, Chen Xiaozui's lifeless eyes suddenly brightened up.

Yes, my brother is still buried in a foreign land without even a tombstone. I want to send him home and bury him next to my parents.

Thinking of this, Chen Xiaozui stopped crying.

Looking at Cun Yunsheng in front of him, he said in a hoarse voice.

"Thank you, it's just that I..."

Chen Xiaozui still wanted to refuse, after all, he was not very clean.

Even if they were forced to do so, it was all for the sake of living.

"I promised your brother that I would take good care of you. From now on, you are my sister, Cun Yunsheng. Let the past go with the wind. Don't think too much and start over." Cun Yunsheng did not look down on the other party.

If you want to blame someone, blame this damn world.

It was this that turned a pure and kind girl into this.

Hearing this, Chen Xiaozui looked at the other party and saw that he did not seem to be faking it. After a long while, he brewed a sentence.

“Brother…” The voice was soft, but heavy.

At least in Cun Yunsheng's eyes, the word "brother" is very important.

"Take this twenty dollars first. I'll have someone send you some supplies later. When I have made all the arrangements, I'll take you to another place to live." Since he had acknowledged this sister, Cun Yunsheng naturally had to take care of her and gave her twenty dollars first.

It's not that you can't give more, but a woman can't keep a hold of something like small yellow croaker here, and it may even cause trouble.

Twenty dollars was enough for her to live on for a while, and she could spend it slowly without attracting anyone's attention.

Chen Xiaozui looked at the twenty dollars in front of him and subconsciously covered his mouth.

"Brother, this is just too much."

"I can't spend that much by myself."

"And I don't lack..."

"Okay, this is what I give you, just take it. If it's not enough, tell me. Don't be reluctant to spend it. You are my sister, and I have no shortage of money." Cun Yunsheng said domineeringly.

"The prices in Zenda are not cheap right now. Twenty dollars may seem like a lot, but it's actually not much. That being said, I'll have someone send some things over later."

In that case, Chen Xiaozui said nothing more and put the twenty dollars away.

"Brother, are we having dinner here tonight? I'll go buy some food." Chen Xiaozui asked subconsciously.

"Okay, but it may take me a long time to come back." Cun Yunsheng said after thinking for a while.

"I still have some things to do in the group. I'll come over when I'm done."

"It's okay, brother, you have to take care of your things first." Chen Xiaozui said obediently.

Hearing this, Cun Yunsheng smiled knowingly and then said.

"Don't worry, I'll come when I'm done."

After saying that, Cun Yunsheng left two people behind to prevent anyone from harassing the other party again.

Originally he wanted to take the other person to a shelter, but it was inconvenient there after all.

With so many defeated soldiers and a girl, many things became inconvenient.

After sending Cun Yunsheng to the door, the sad expression on Chen Xiaozui's face appeared again.

Although I have recognized a brother, I can't help but feel sad when I think that my biological brother has sacrificed his life.

Then he remembered that he wanted to set up a memorial tablet for his brother.

No matter what, it’s also a reminder for myself.
