"That night, I couldn't sleep. Looking at my wife's sleeping face, my heart was full of guilt for her and the family. I quietly opened her thick diary. In addition to recording the feelings of an ordinary housewife,
In addition to her husband's selfless dedication to her children and family, she also had hundreds of thousands of words of reading notes. Between the lines, she carefully copied the obscure and difficult teachings of Confucius and Mencius. She also marked important places with a red pen and recorded them carefully.
There were poems by Pushkin, Shakespeare, and Xu Zhimo in the diary, and there was also a note on the mood of the characters in Dream of Red Mansions. To his surprise, her thoughts coincided with his. That night, I stayed up all night.
Sleeping, facing my wife, I just felt moved and guilty. I also had a new understanding of her."
The president stopped talking here. Gu Mengmeng silently raised her face and saw the unconcealable sparkle in his eyes.
The president immediately changed the topic and suddenly asked Gu Mengmeng: "What do you think is the standard for measuring women's beauty?"
Gu Mengmeng was slightly startled. She was still immersed in the president's story and couldn't help herself. When asked a question, she obviously couldn't keep up with the rhythm. After thinking about it, she replied: "I think appearance is not the main consideration.
She must have a charming personality and attractive temperament, just like my aunt, I think she is beautiful."
The president nodded slowly. He stretched out three fingers towards Gu Mengmeng with deep eyes. He said: "Integrity and kindness, grace and peace, diligence and duty. Only those who possess these three qualities are the best in the world.
Beautiful women.”
Gu Mengmeng memorized these three maxims in her heart. She felt deeply that she was far from her goal.
She said with shame: "I will work hard in this direction, President."
The president chuckled and placed a picture newspaper of Conway's victory in Estonia in front of Gu Mengmeng. He said earnestly: "Major Xiaokang is a good person. Like you, although he has a proud
He has a family background, but he upholds the principle of being a low-key person and doing things in a high-key manner, and relies on his hard work and hard work to win honor for the motherland and people. You and he are both people worthy of our learning and respect."
"President, we didn't do anything..." Gu Mengmeng blushed. Did the president deliberately want to shame her to death?
"Our party committee has studied it and wants to promote you to captain as an exception. Gu Mengmeng, will you continue to work hard?"
"Yes, President! I will continue to work hard! I will never let down the trust and praise given to me by the organization!" She stood up and gave a standard military salute, but her hands wrapped in white gauze looked funny.
The president remembered something and took out a box of medicated oil from a drawer on his desk. He handed it to Gu Mengmeng's hand and said with a bit of regret: "Here, here is a special medicine for treating burns and scalds. Go back and wipe it off quickly."
, how can I go see the chief with scars? Oh, and your family is well-off. He serves the country, but I can't protect the members!"
"Pfft..." Gu Mengmeng laughed at the sound of the club member's comedy. She grabbed the medicinal oil and hid the bear's paw behind her back, and asked the president with a smile: "Will you give me a salary increase?"
President!"
"It's going up! It's going up soon!"
"Okay!"
"Hahaha...."
After Gu Mengmeng came out of the president's office, her mood suddenly became much brighter. On the way back to her room, she accidentally met reporter Tan who had just returned from an interview. His face was covered with dust and frost, and there were still unmelted snow flakes on his head and shoulders.
Seeing Gu Mengmeng, Reporter Tan stopped.
"Brother Tan, is it snowing heavily outside?" She knocked the snowflakes off him with the gloves in her arms.
Reporter Tan raised his eyebrows and smiled and said: "Yes, it rained heavily on the way back. There is ice on the ground, and it has accumulated a thick layer."
Gu Mengmeng beamed when she heard this. Although the snow brought inconvenience to transportation and travel, it added a lot of fun to life. Just as she was about to go out for a look, Reporter Tan stopped her from behind: "Mengmeng, wait!
I have some photos here of you and Officer Cen during the interview in Yulin. They have been developed for a long time, but I still can’t meet you."
"Ah, take a group photo! Okay, I happened to go to the teacher's house to take it with me in the evening. Brother Tan, do you have that family photo of me and Senior Brother Cen's family?"
Reporter Tan thought for a moment and nodded affirmatively, yes.
Sure enough, Gu Mengmeng got ten photos from Reporter Tan with soft and clear shooting angles and facial features.
After thanking her, she told Reporter Tan to compress the photo and send it to her email. Then she took the photo to a large open space behind the newspaper office to look at the snow scene.
The world is silent, and the towering trees are covered with thin snowflakes. When blown by the wind, they all flutter down. The holly on the roadside is still experiencing the nirvana of life in the snow, waiting for the vitality of the coming year. Straight
The road was now covered with thick snow, and the sky and the earth were silent. Only the white snowflakes falling in the vast sky announced to the world the arrival of winter.
Standing in the snow, facing the biting cold wind, she stared at the empty plastic playground and amusement facilities in the distance and was stunned for a while.
Later, she dialed Senior Brother Cen's number.
The ringing tone was the familiar military song "Southeast and Northwest Soldiers". She didn't even hear a few words before the other party answered the call.
"Hey, is this Mengmeng?" Cen Kaikai's voice was slightly hoarse, but now it was much higher.
Senior Brother Cen smiled with a rich voice on the other end of the phone and simply answered "Hello". He then asked, "Little Junior Sister Mengmeng, how are you?"
Gu Mengmeng sniffed and took out the family photos she took with her senior brother and her family. She pursed her lips and replied, "Oh, I'm fine. I'm enjoying looking at the photos of your family right now."
In the photo, the senior brother and sister-in-law have similar smiles, and the baby is sleeping soundly in their arms, a scene of happiness and harmony.
"Did you come to Yulin to take the photo? That's great, you must send it to me."
"Don't worry. I will confiscate the developed photos and bring them to the teacher tonight!"
"The teacher is back?!"
"Well, I met him on the bus this morning. The teacher and his wife also invited me to have dinner at home. Senior brother, it's a pity that you can't come!" Gu Mengmeng teased her senior brother again as before.
Senior Brother Cen sighed, "Just be angry with me... Mengmeng."
"Ho ho ho..." She also laughed.
The two chatted for a while, and Senior Brother Cen asked about Kangwei. Gu Mengmeng answered him simply this time and returned to the army.
"Is he still staying in Langya?" The senior brother suddenly said this sentence for some reason. Gu Mengmeng was frightened, thinking that the matter of 530 was leaked again. She quickly replied: "Oh, he is here. He is not here.
