Lao Lin and Lao Zhang were comrades who fought together through life and death. They fought together in the Vietnam War and the War with India after the founding of the People's Republic of China. They were partners from the beginning. Lao Zhang was the political commissar and Lao Lin was the division commander. They were also partners in peacetime. They even retired together. If it weren't for the fact that my wife passed away early, the two of them probably wouldn't have come to a rest home.
Generally speaking, the military leaders who come to the dormitory do so because their wives have died. But the main reason is because they are all soldiers and have a common language.
Lin Wanrou's mother also passed away very early, so her father Lin Guodong was her only support. She also grew up in a military compound. So Lin Wanrou, who was weak on the surface, had the same temperament as Lin Guodong in her heart.
Lin Wanrou's husband's parents also died very early, so Wanwan often calls Lin Guodong grandpa instead of grandpa (meaning grandpa in northern dialect).[
Lin Guodong was still very satisfied with his son-in-law. Although the Long family had lost power after the death of his second elder, Lin Guodong still chose this son-in-law. In addition, Lin Wanrou liked it himself, so this marriage had no problems from beginning to end. Obstacle. Lin Wanrou was a flower in Beijing when she was young.
In addition, Lin Guodong was working in the General Staff at the time and was very powerful. There were not many old generals like Lin Guodong who had fought in several wars and survived. They were basically national treasures. So Lin Wanrou was among many red nobles in Beijing at that time. The object of pursuit.
After retirement, Lin Guodong was originally arranged to stay in Xiangshan Dry Rest House. But Lin Guodong himself proposed to come to Chengde. Because it is not close to Beijing, but it is not far from Beijing. The main reason is that he does not want to cause trouble. It is also far from Beijing. It's not far. It's also convenient for my daughter and son-in-law to visit.
Although Lao Lin scolded Lao Zhang and asked him to put down his granddaughter, Lao Zhang ignored him at all. When he saw Wanwan, he loved her as if he were his own granddaughter.
Lao Zhang’s children are not working in Beijing. Because Lao Zhang is not from Beijing, his children are all in his hometown. Lao Zhang looks gentle and gentle, but in fact he is strong-willed. He will never violate the principle. He I don’t want my children to climb up the ladder relying on my own connections, so I haven’t arranged any decent jobs for them from beginning to end.
Because of this, Lao Zhang has almost become a loner. After all, with Lao Zhang's influence, it is too easy to arrange a job for his children in Beijing. But Lao Zhang is stubbornly unwilling and has persisted until now. in principle.
As for his comrade-in-arms Lao Lin, he is an authentic Beijinger. Therefore, Lao Zhang naturally will not dislike Lin Wanrou because of her current position. Because he has watched Lin Wanrou grow up. Her ability is beyond recognition. She can achieve these results. It's natural. It's not like his children who only want to be arranged by him instead of working hard on their own.
To a certain extent, Lao Zhang actually treated Lin Wanrou as his own daughter. And for those of their level, they would be buried in Babaoshan Cemetery when they died. If they were updated immediately, they would not have to worry about anyone passing away. Therefore, Lao Zhang has not reconciled with his children until now. Even though he is retired, he is still a dignified lieutenant general. He will not take the initiative to stick to him.
"Okay. Wanwan is very hungry. Let's go have dinner with Grandpa Zhang." Wanwan said and glanced at her grandfather, as if she was looking at his expression.
Seeing that his granddaughter had surrendered to the enemy, Lao Lin immediately said angrily: "Comrade Zhang Dashan, I will settle the score with you later."
"Okay, okay. I won't disturb you anymore." Lao Zhang returned Wanwan to Lao Lin, said hello to Lin Wanrou, and left.
Seeing this, Nurse You said to Lao Lin seriously: "I'll give you one hour. In one hour, more and faster chapters will come. You must go to eat. And the medicine has been prepared by you. Remember to take the medicine on time." "
"Okay, okay, living ancestor. Go, go. I will remember to take medicine." Lao Lin looked troubled.
But Nurse You said seriously: "You are not allowed to play chess. Spend time with your family."
"Yes, Chief." Lao Lin was helpless. In the end, he could only act like a new recruit.
Nurse You left with satisfaction. Seeing her father being treated obediently by a little nurse, Lin Wanrou was happy from the bottom of her heart. Why was she happy? Because besides her mother, she had never seen her father treat any woman. So gentle. If Nurse You were thirty years older, Lin Wanrou would probably have ideas to facilitate them.
Of course, she also knew very well that since her mother passed away, her father has not been looking for her. The organization has made arrangements for it, but she has never seen him think about it. Her father's concern for her mother has not changed in his bones. .In that revolutionary era, every relationship was precious and enough to be cherished for a lifetime.
In the eyes of ordinary people, Lao Lin is an iron-faced king of hell. The same is true in front of his daughter. But every time he sees Wanwan, he smiles widely. He can't help but prick Wanwan's face with his beard. Wanwan shouted that grandpa was the most annoying. This scene almost never changed.
It took him a long time to react. He held Wanwan and looked at Uncle Jia and Canglong. Old Lin just introduced Uncle Jia briefly. Uncle Jia's expression was naturally respectful. This was an old chief. To him, Director Long was still a When he was the battalion commander, he was already the commander of the military region. At that time, Uncle Jia was still a new recruit.[
When they arrived at Canglong, Lao Lin's eyes froze. He looked up and down at Canglong. He nodded with satisfaction and said, "The face looks pretty good, but he has a bit of murderous intent. He doesn't seem to be from the military."
"This is my brother who my grandfather said saved Wanwan. He is the best to me." Wanwan seemed to know her grandfather's temper, so she said quickly.
Lin Wanrou also said quickly: "I just recognized him as my godson. What do you think, old man? I will update as soon as possible."
"Godson." Lao Lin was obviously stunned, but he looked at Canglong carefully. "Such a murderous intention. If my guess is correct, you should be from the Intelligence Bureau. Yunshan's subordinate."
"Dad, can you please stop looking at people in this way?" Lin Wanrou said with some dissatisfaction. "They are not your soldiers. They are still like this even after they have retired."
"I'm used to it. I'm used to it." Lao Lin didn't take it seriously. "Young man, do you know how to play chess? How about we try this endgame?"
Lin Wanrou was about to stop her, but Canglong said calmly: "Okay. If you are not afraid of losing, I will accompany you in the next round."
As soon as these words came out, several people frowned. But Lao Lin smiled and said: "Okay. Young people are full of energy. Come on, let me see what you are capable of."
"Grandpa is going to play chess again." Wanwan pouted with a dissatisfied look on her face. "Playing chess is the most interesting thing to talk about. I'll go to Grandpa Zhang's place."
"I am your biological grandfather." Lao Lin was also dissatisfied. He was very helpless about his granddaughter's surrender to the enemy. So he rubbed Wanwan's face again and pricked her several times with his beard. He didn't stop until Wanwan begged for mercy.
The two of them walked to the chess table. Lao Lin was about to sit down in his original seat, but Canglong said, "I'll sit where you were just now."
As soon as these words came out, Old Lin frowned and looked at Canglong. Lin Wanrou and Uncle Jia also looked at him in surprise. After all, the old man just wanted to find someone to finish this mess.
Before they could speak, Canglong had already sat on it. The old man was a little dissatisfied at first, but Canglong sat on the losing side, but he just looked at the chess game for a moment, and then made a move.
This immediately attracted Lao Lin's attention. He didn't care about Canglong's arrogance. Instead, he sat in Lao Zhang's position just now. Watching the entire chess game, you will find that Canglong's move will not save the entire endgame. On the contrary, it will It will make all the black stones fall under the siege of white stones. This is definitely a bad move that will destroy itself in one move.
The old man looked at Canglong. He thought he wanted to finish things with him as soon as possible and felt dissatisfied. But the confidence on Canglong's face told him that he could still play this game. So he smiled and said: "Interesting."
As he spoke, he also started to make moves. Even Lin Wanrou and Uncle Jia were attracted. Except for Wanwan, their attention was almost all on the chess game. It was obvious that they also saw some tricks. Canglong's black pieces were not at all It is almost impossible to win, no matter which direction you go.
But when the two of them were playing, Bai Zi still had an absolute advantage at first. But later, every move of Cang Long was a dangerous move. After whetting Bai Zi's appetite, he began to turn the tables. Cang Long's chess playing techniques were completely different from the beginning. Oto is extremely aggressive and will never retreat even if his life is at risk.
"You lose." Canglong dropped his last piece and surrounded Baizi, leaving almost no room for him.
Lao Lin looked at the chess game with a surprised expression. Even Lin Wanrou and Uncle Jia were in disbelief. After all, in the situation just now, the black stone was at an absolute disadvantage and the white stone had the advantage. But now it has become that the white stone is completely suppressed. There is almost no need to continue. .
Lao Lin was still unwilling to give in. But now it was different from before. Lao Zhang still left enough room for Lao Lin. But Canglong didn't leave any room for Lao Lin. No matter where he made his move, everything was a loss.
"You really have some skills. The murderous aura is not only in your body but also in the chess game." Lao Lin looked at the chess game calmly and said. "We are in the next game."
"You are no match for me." Canglong said decisively.[
This sentence immediately stunned Lao Lin. He was angry in his heart but couldn't let it go. He just looked at Canglong coldly. Ordinary people would be trembling under his gaze. But Canglong looked at Lao Lin as steadily as Mount Tai. .At this time, Lin Wanrou and Uncle Jia were standing aside without speaking.
After a long time like this, Lao Lin suddenly said: "It's so similar."
"Grandpa, what does it look like?" Wanwan asked with a puzzled look on her face.
"Like your father. Also like your deceased grandfather." Lao Lin blurted out.
But Lin Wanrou recalled those days when she was young. She remembered that when she took Long Yunshan to meet her father as her love interest, Long Yunshan also played a game of chess with his father. But the result was that his father also lost. It was precisely because of that game of chess that my father fell in love with Long Yunshan, his son-in-law.
What was surprising was that when his father lost, he also looked at Long Yunshan. In the end, his father also said the same thing.
