躍龍

　　自从和英台确定关系以来，双方书信不断，情意如江水绵绵。我好像做什么事都得心应手，心中有热情，工作有干劲。也收到了南霸天的回信，他说是要来看看这里的“广阔天地，大有作为”，到底是个什么情景。

Since I established my relationship with Yingtai, we have been writing letters to each other, and our love is as endless as the river. I seem to be able to do everything well, with passion in my heart and enthusiasm in work. I also received a reply from Nan Batian, who said that he wanted to come and see what the "vast world and great achievements" here are like.

英台也说要和南霸天一同结伴来云南。估计英台他们马上放假了，正好有时间过来。

Yingtai also said that she would come to Yunnan with Nan Batian. I guess Yingtai and her friends will be on vacation soon, so they have time to come.

一个星期天的上午，我洗完了几天攒的衣服，准备回宿舍给英台写信。看见一辆奇怪的车子，发着拖拉机的声音，向我宿舍开来。外表上看像个敞篷吉普车，可车身又有点长，感情是一个加长吉普车？

One Sunday morning, I finished washing the clothes I had saved for a few days and was about to go back to the dormitory to write a letter to Yingtai. I saw a strange car, making a tractor sound, driving towards my dormitory. It looked like an open jeep on the outside, but the body was a bit long. It turned out to be an extended jeep?

车上的人向我一个劲地挥手。我看清了，来的是建军和小越南，还有两个不认识的小年轻。

The people in the car waved to me. I saw clearly that it was Jianjun and Xiao Yuenan, and two young people I didn't know.

小越南拉着我的手到车子边，先介绍了两个小年轻给我认识。然后指着这个车说：我们刚刚弄好的，今天是第一次跑长途。我们有交通工具了。

Xiao Yuenan took my hand to the side of the car and introduced the two young people to me. Then he pointed to the car and said: We just got it, and today is the first time to run a long distance. We have transportation.

　　原来小越南认识了县委院子里的几个孩子，都是县领导的孩子。在他们的帮助下，拉回了一台解放前的美国中吉普。只剩下个壳子，发动机被拆走了。建军和小越南找了个拖拉机头按上去，装出了这么一台柴油中吉普。可是这个玩意上路不合法，平时又停哪里？

It turned out that Xiao Yuenan knew several children in the yard of the county party committee, all of whom were children of county leaders. With their help, they pulled back a pre-liberation American mid-sized jeep. Only a shell was left, and the engine was removed. Jianjun and Xiao Yuenan found a tractor head and pressed it on, and assembled such a diesel mid-sized jeep. But this thing is not legal on the road, where do you park it normally?

小越南得意地对我说：罗密欧，你也不夸夸我们？听说你们连拿了第一名，但那是公家的事。咱们这台车可是私家车，也是我们县，不，可能是云南省的第一台私家车！你放心，我们平时不用，让县委院子里的哥几个开，也停在他们院子里。那些管交通的知道了，没有谁会认真管的。平时那几个孩子还可以接点活，挣点小钱钱。我们就收点管理费什么的，出租给他们。双赢！

Xiao Yuenan said to me proudly: Romeo, don’t you brag about us? I heard that you won the first place, but that is a public matter. Our car is a private car, and it is also the first private car in our county, no, it may be the first private car in Yunnan Province! Don’t worry, we don’t use it normally, let the brothers in the yard of the county party committee drive it, and park it in their yard. Those who are in charge of traffic know about it, and no one will take it seriously. Usually, those children can still take some work and earn some money. We just charge some management fees and rent it out to them. Win-win!

　　我叮嘱道：一定要注意安全，出了事会很麻烦的。

I reminded them: Be sure to pay attention to safety, it will be very troublesome if something goes wrong.

既然他们车子都可以拼出来，那手艺肯定也不差。建军他们成了修理所的技术大拿了，几个月的勤学苦练，成就了青出于蓝，而胜于蓝。

Since they can assemble the car, their skills must be good. Jianjun and his friends have become the technical masters of the repair shop. After several months of hard work and practice, they have become better than their predecessors.

大家高高兴兴地玩了一天，吃了晚饭他们才离开。我把南霸天和英台他们要来云南的消息告诉了他们，大家都期待他们的到来。

Everyone played happily for a day and left after dinner. I told them that Nan Batian and Yingtai were coming to Yunnan, and everyone was looking forward to their arrival.

七月底，南霸天带着他的手下干将和英台，王丹红一同来到了云南。四个人坐了一天的班车到了县城，建军他们接到广州来客就安排在县里招待所住下了。

At the end of July, Nan Batian came to Yunnan with his capable men, Yingtai, and Wang Danhong. The four of them took a day's bus to the county town. Jianjun and his friends received the guests from Guangzhou and arranged to stay in the county guesthouse.

英台说什么都要马上下来见我，建军告诉她：明天我们有庆祝八一的文艺汇报演出，罗密欧是连长，他们都会上来参加汇演。

Yingtai said that she would come down to see me immediately, and Jianjun told her: Tomorrow we have a literary performance to celebrate August 1st. Romeo is the company commander, and they will all come up to participate in the performance.

　　我带着我的大队人马到达了，还没有下车就已经看见我的几个伙伴在等我。英台是直接扑到我怀里，紧紧的抱住我。这可是在众目睽睽之下，光天化日之下。

I arrived with my large group of people. Before I got off the car, I saw several of my companions waiting for me. Yingtai threw herself into my arms and hugged me tightly. This was in front of everyone, in broad daylight.

我们连长就这么被拿下了？那个女孩是谁？我的手下看到这番光景，心里划了个大问号。

Our company commander was taken down like this? Who is that girl? My men saw this scene and had a big question mark in their hearts.

就连我的这些兄弟们，表情也愕然。丈二金刚摸不着头脑！

Even my brothers were stunned. They were completely confused!

除了王丹红，他们所有的人都不知道我和英台在热恋之中！等他们反应过来，一阵掌声响了起来！

Except for Wang Danhong, none of them knew that Yingtai and I were in love! When they realized it, a round of applause broke out!

在掌声中，我轻轻地安慰英台：好了，赶快松开吧，大家都在看我们。

In the applause, I gently comforted Yingtai: Okay, let go quickly, everyone is watching us.

英台这时已经热泪盈眶了。

Yingtai's eyes were already filled with tears at this time

　　我招呼大家一起去看演出，建军他们跟着我们连，排队进场，英台紧跟在我后面，寸步不离。

I invited everyone to watch the performance. Jianjun and his team followed our company and lined up to enter the venue. Yingtai followed closely behind me, not leaving me.

我们的节目安排在中间部分上演，其他连队陆续登台。各类型的节目都有，但的确和我们事先估计的那样，规模小，比较简单，尽管水平不低。

Our program was scheduled to be performed in the middle part, and other companies took the stage one after another. There were all kinds of programs, but as we had expected in advance, the scale was small and relatively simple, although the level was not low.

轮到我们连队了。报幕员的话音一落，我们连的“锅碗瓢盆乐队”把前奏敲响了。

It was our company's turn. As soon as the announcer finished speaking, our company's "Pots and Pans Band" sounded the prelude.

风烟滚滚唱英雄，四面青山侧耳听，侧耳听。女声高歌唱响。

The wind and smoke were rolling and singing heroes, and the green mountains on all sides listened attentively. Listen attentively. The female voice sang loudly.

晴天响雷敲金鼓，大海扬波着和声。男生接着高唱。一人一段。

Thunders in the clear sky beat golden drums, and the sea waves were waving in harmony. The boys continued to sing loudly. One paragraph each.

为什么战旗美如画，英雄的鲜血染红了她，为什么大地春常在……！全连一起唱和声。

Why is the battle flag as beautiful as a painting, the blood of heroes dyed her red, why is the earth always in spring...! The whole company sang in harmony together.

　　第二段独唱开始的同时，我们连的伴舞出场，重现了电影的画面，和歌词配合得恰到好处。歌声和舞蹈共同提升了艺术的感染力。

At the beginning of the second solo, our company's dancers came out and reproduced the scenes of the movie, which matched the lyrics perfectly. The singing and dancing together enhanced the appeal of art.

再加上我们连四个人的朗诵读白，激情豪迈，发人深省！

In addition, the recitation of the four people in our company was passionate and thought-provoking!

最后，台上台下的全连大合唱把表演推向了高潮！

Finally, the chorus of the whole company on and off the stage brought the performance to a climax!

一场完美的演出！台下爆发的掌声经久不息！

A perfect performance! The applause from the audience lasted for a long time!

我带领全连，起立鼓掌致谢!

I led the whole company to stand up and applaud to express my gratitude!

演出结束后，我向指导员请假，让他带连队回去。明天正好是“八一”放假。

After the performance, I asked the instructor for leave and asked him to take the company back. Tomorrow is the "August 1st" holiday.

　　我们围坐在县委招待所的小食堂，饭菜早就准备好了。是小越南的那几个小兄弟张罗的。那几个县委院子里的孩子，开着“私家车“跑运输，挣钱了。听说小越南的哥哥姐姐来了，自然是不敢怠慢的，生怕做的不够好。

We sat in the small canteen of the County Party Committee Guesthouse. The food had been prepared long ago. It was arranged by the brothers of Xiao Yue Nan. Those kids in the yard of the County Party Committee drove their "private cars" to do transportation and made money. When they heard that Xiao Yue Nan's brothers and sisters were coming, they naturally did not dare to neglect them, for fear that they would not do a good enough job.

大家互相介绍后，让我先作开场白：首先，欢迎广州来的兄弟姐妹，南霸天，王丹红和英台，祝贺我们重逢在云南。大家也都知道了，我和英台相爱了，在这里正式宣布一下。第二，今天是我们的好哥们，宋建军的生日，大家共祝建军生日快乐！第三，感谢小越南和他的几个兄弟，为我们做了周到的安排。第四，明天是八一，祝愿人民军队战无不胜，军民团结如一人，试看天下谁能敌！

After everyone introduced themselves to each other, let me make an opening statement: First of all, welcome the brothers and sisters from Guangzhou, Nan Batian, Wang Danhong and Yingtai, and congratulate us on our reunion in Yunnan. Everyone knows that Yingtai and I are in love, and I would like to officially announce it here. Second, today is the birthday of our good buddy, Song Jianjun, and everyone wishes Jianjun a happy birthday! Third, thank Xiao Yue Nan and his brothers for making thoughtful arrangements for us. Fourth, tomorrow is August 1st, and I wish the People's Army invincible, and the army and the people are united as one. Let's see who can defeat them in the world!

　　推杯换盏，共叙友情，大家都很投入。宴席在建军的提议下结束，各自回去休息。大家都知道他的用意：为我和英台留时间。

Everyone was very engaged in the drinking and chatting about friendship. The banquet ended at Jianjun's suggestion, and everyone went back to rest. Everyone knew his intention: to leave time for Yingtai and me.

英台挽着我的手在县委院子里散步，她说：今天晚上的演出印象很深，想不到可以有这样的效果。尤其是你们连队的节目，让人耳目一新，各个环节都配合的完美，是谁导演的？

Yingtai took my hand and walked in the courtyard of the county party committee. She said: I was deeply impressed by the performance tonight. I didn't expect it to have such an effect. Especially the program of your company, it was refreshing and every link was perfectly coordinated. Who directed it?

我回答她：我们连里的人大多来自大城市，有文化基础。有了人才就有可能事半功倍。有创新就会有突破，结果就会让人留下印象。

I answered her: Most of the people in our company are from big cities and have a cultural foundation. With talents, it is possible to get twice the result with half the effort. With innovation, there will be breakthroughs, and the results will leave an impression.

她说：我不会看错人！我的男朋友能力超群，这些都是你成长的表现，我对未来充满信心。

She said: I won't make a mistake! My boyfriend is very capable. These are all manifestations of your growth. I am full of confidence in the future.

　　我们聊了很多话，转了几个圈了。来到了树下，英台拉我靠在树旁，双手圈在我的脖子上，我们四目相对，我看见了英台灼热的眼光，她轻声说道：罗密欧，我真爱你，吻吻我吧！

We talked a lot and walked around a few times. When we came to the tree, Yingtai pulled me against the tree, put her hands around my neck, and we looked at each other. I saw Yingtai's burning eyes, and she whispered: Romeo, I really love you, kiss me!

她整个身体贴上来了，把嘴巴封在我的嘴角，我已经情不自禁了，微偏转嘴迎合着，送出了我的热吻！我们相互交换情感，一直到感觉缺氧了才分开，但换了口气又是热吻，反复多次。她把我搂得越来越紧，我也把她紧紧的抱着，明显感到英台的身体紧绷了，呼吸大口了，我不得不停止亲吻，让大家得以喘息。

She pressed her whole body against me and sealed her mouth on the corner of my mouth. I couldn't help myself, so I slightly turned my mouth to meet her and gave her a hot kiss! We exchanged emotions with each other until we felt short of breath, but we kissed again after taking a breath, repeatedly. She hugged me tighter and tighter, and I hugged her tightly. I could clearly feel Yingtai's body tense and her breathing heavy. I had to stop kissing to let everyone breathe.

我们都献出了初吻！

We both gave our first kiss!

这是永生难忘的初吻，在那宁静的夜晚，在那棵大树下，在彩云之南的一个小县城。

This was an unforgettable first kiss, on that quiet night, under that big tree, in a small county town in the south of the colorful clouds.

第二天吃完晚饭，小越南开着“私家车“送我回去，他们一起跟着，顺便看看我工作生活的环境。一路上英台都是紧握着我的手，直到目的地。

After dinner the next day, Xiao Yuenan drove me back in a "private car" and they followed me to see the environment where I work and live. Yingtai held my hand tightly all the way until we reached our destination.

我带他们参观了橡胶园，介绍了采胶的过程。顺便还到了国境线边上，看了一眼对面的风景。

I took them to visit the rubber plantation and introduced the process of rubber harvesting. We also went to the border and took a look at the scenery on the other side.

　　我没有让他们去连队，以免麻烦，在路边道别了。

I didn't let them go to the company to avoid trouble, and said goodbye to them on the roadside.

两天后，他们就离开了，顺路去西双版纳，普洱，玉溪等地。八月下旬才回到广州。

Two days later, they left, and went to Xishuangbanna, Pu'er, Yuxi and other places. They returned to Guangzhou in late August.

英台和丹红继续她们的学业，四年级了，明年就毕业了。

Yingtai and Danhong continued their studies. They are in the fourth grade and will graduate next year.

我们连在八一节表演的节目“英雄赞歌“被团里选为保留节目，上报参加兵团的汇演。连里的几个文艺骨干也被团里调去做宣传干事了。

The program "Heroic Hymn" performed by our company on August 1st was selected as a reserved program by the regiment and reported to participate in the performance of the Corps. Several literary and artistic backbones in the company were also transferred by the regiment to be propaganda officers.

集体三等功也获得兵团批准了。我估计：我的“代理“连长的帽子很快也会去掉了。

The third-class collective merit was also approved by the Corps. I guess: my "acting" company commander's hat will soon be removed.

时间过得飞快，一晃大半年就过去了。

Time flies, and more than half a year has passed in a flash.

我发现通过书信交流完全不能表达我的所有爱意，可两地分居是现实。怎么办？

I found that I could not express all my love through correspondence, but living apart from each other is a reality. What should I do?
