When Xi Weiguo returned home and heard her daughter's call, Xu Aiping happily walked towards the door. Looking at her husband, whom she had not seen for a year, the resentment in this lonely woman's heart was immediately washed away. Resentment can only arise from love.
.
"You're back!" Xu Aiping said calmly, but she was very excited in her heart. She is still the same person, but she is older than before. How many years can be consumed in a lifetime, and the two of them can grow old together.
Xu Aiping never thought about how long it would be. She only knew that her current husband belonged to her and to her, a little woman. Now she only had one request, that Xi Weiguo could sit happily at the table and enjoy her flowers.
On top of the dishes that I worked so hard on all morning.
"Thank you for your hard work." It was the same four-word answer, but it contained a lot of apology and guilt from Xi Weiguo.
The two of them stood dumbly at the door, and Xi Weiguo seemed to have forgotten everything.
"Dad, Mom, what's wrong with you? Come in quickly, I'm so hot." Xiyang held their arms and walked in. At that moment, Xi Weiguo and Xu Aiping's eyes were full of tears.
Along with the two of them came Chen Tianfang and Hu Shengli. Today, Hu Shengli was even more depressed. The plan he had thought about all night to please was shattered by the appearance of Shen Sanquan, but he still hoped that Xi Weiguo would approve it.
Himself, in that case the little swan Sunset can fly into his arms.
When everyone came to the living room, Xu Aiping and Xiyang immediately became busy, greeting Chen Tianfang and Hu Shengli. Chen Tianfang had been to Xi's house before, but Xiyang was not there at that time. This time, he was not very reserved when invited by Xi Zhan.
, vying to help Xu Aiping, Xu Aiping was in a good mood, and she let him, Xiyang was also happy with this cute little warrior, the two talked and laughed, leaving Hu Shengli aside who wanted to eat swan meat, this
The dandy kid usually didn't do much housework, and he didn't know where to start at this time, so he could only sit on the sofa with a silly smile and wait for the meal.
Xi Weiguo carefully looked at his familiar yet unfamiliar home. After a year and a half, a full year and a half, he was finally willing to come back. Looking at the neat furniture and spotless photo frames, he slowly walked over and stretched out his hand.
His big, calloused hands gently caressed each photo in the frame, gently and tenderly, which seemed so asymmetrical to his rough and arrogant character.
The old photos in the photo frame have been around for a long time. Xi Weiguo remembers that the one in Tiananmen was a photo of him with the leaders of the motherland when he was awarded the title of major general. There were also some other pillars of the country. Xi Weiguo remembered clearly that day.
It was a cloudy day and a little sultry. Under the control of the photographer, everyone was neatly performing military salutes, holding their heads high and chest out, and spoke deeply about their feelings for the motherland. At that moment, Xi Weiguo was filled with emotions. He could
I clearly remember how excited I was in my heart at that time. When a soldier, a soldier who sacrifices his life and sheds blood for the motherland, is recognized by the motherland, he is willing to die.
Xi Weiguo's fingers paused on a photo. It was a group photo of two people. One of them was Xi Weiguo. The other had a bandage on his chest and was holding his shoulders, but still had a hand in his mouth.
A cigarette.
He is an injured person, and judging from the condition of the bandages, it seems that the injury is not serious.
Xi Weiguo wiped the photo gently, his eyes were a little moist, and at the same time, his memory also flew back to the passionate days of the Anti-Japanese War.
It was a tough battle. Xi Weiguo, the leader of the regiment, attacked decisively and wiped out a reserve battalion of Little Japan in one fell swoop. When everyone was happily cleaning the battlefield, they were surprised to find a lot of explosives ordnance stored by the Japanese army. Xi Weiguo
He immediately laughed and said to everyone: "No wonder those bastards were so desperate to fight with us just now, it turned out they were hiding a piece of fat."
Being able to seize the enemy's powerful firepower arsenal is naturally a big achievement. Xi Weiguo was very excited and ordered his sergeants to move it quickly. At this moment, the communications troops sent news that reinforcements from the enemy's rear were rushing here.
Come, there are so many people. Needless to say, it must be because of this batch of ammunition. Xi Weiguo is a little heartbroken. If you leave these ammunition and run away at this time, you will definitely be able to evacuate quickly, or if you come, I can't get you, don't even think about it.
He wanted to blow it up with fire, but when he saw those tempting things, Xi Weiguo was a little moved. They were the latest ammunition and guns of the Japanese army. It was a pity to blow them up like this. After thinking about it for a while, the temptation finally came.
Still defeating his reason, Xi Weiguo decided to eat this piece of meat.
The Japanese army came quickly, and Xi Weiguo was soon overtaken due to the inconvenience of carrying ammunition. The two sides fought together. Relying on the enemy's fat, this battle was really brutal. The Japanese army
The casualties were heavy, and Xi Weiguo was also secretly happy. Killing one more Japanese would give him more pleasure, so why not do it.
However, this time the ammunition seemed to be taken very seriously by the Japanese army. Although many people died, they still kept coming like invincible enemies. The soldiers around him fell down one by one. Xi Weiguo was a little flustered.
After all, they are all his brothers. No matter how good the ammunition is and how powerful it is, how can it compare to the death of his brother?
"Evacuate, evacuate quickly." Xi Weiguo had to give such an order, but the Japanese army seemed to be red-eyed. They were now determined not to have these things and vowed to kill all Xi Weiguo's troops.
Suddenly, Xi Weiguo felt like he could not retract the bowstring he had shot, so he had no choice but to fight hard. The two sides fought for a whole day and night. They were exhausted. The team also suffered heavy casualties. Those who survived were mostly injured. Although they did not eat anything, these
However, the seniors remained unyielding until death, and finally the Japanese army became afraid. After all, Xi Weiguo's troops had that batch of ammunition, and their firepower was still very fierce. They did not dare to go forward easily, and planned to kill them like this.
Xi Weiguo chewed his cigarette, rested for a while, and looked at the brothers beside him. He understood that he was really wrong this time. He felt a little regretful and helpless. He shouldn't have lost his eyes for some ammunition.
But at this time, Xi Weiguo must not say that his leadership was wrong. Even if he admits his mistake, he can only say it after he survives. He slowly stood up after smoking the last cigarette and observed the enemy's military situation. At this moment
At that moment, the Japanese troops surged up again. After Xi Weiguo gritted his teeth and cursed a bastard, he was the first to throw out a grenade. The brothers behind him cooperated with each other tacitly and fought hard like they were desperate. The Japanese troops fell immediately.
There was a roar of chirping, striking while the iron was hot, Xi Weiguo risked his life, and killing a few more Japanese dogs was worth it anyway. He shouted, and the other remaining brothers rushed out immediately. At this moment, on the opposite mountain,
The charge horn also sounded, and reinforcements arrived.
Xi Weiguo saw hope and shouted: "Brothers, kill all these Japanese dogs, our brothers are here."
The loud sound of the Charge frightened the Japanese, and everyone panicked. Xi Weiguo had already made a mistake in his leadership, and with the determination to die and thank the world, he carried the gun out of the trench, opened the grenade with his mouth and threw it, behind him
Under his leadership, all the soldiers fought bravely to kill the enemy regardless of life or death.
Even a dog will jump over the wall when it is anxious. The Japanese were killed like crazy, but at the last moment they became brave and raised their guns and aimed at Xi Weiguo.
Bang! Bullets were fired towards Xi Weiguo.
"Captain, be careful!" With a shout, Xi Weiguo's body was knocked out, and two bullets were fiercely shot into the chest of the soldier who had just risked his life to save Xi Weiguo.
"Huang Kai!" Xi Weiguo shouted, watching Huang Kai fall down.
"Little Japan, I will kill you!" Xi Weiguo's eyes turned red, he got up with a cry, dodged a bullet, and stabbed the Japanese with his bayonet into the throat of the Japanese who had just fired the cold gun, and penetrated directly.
.
Huang Kai was quickly sent to the temporary infirmary. This kid was also a good fortune teller. He was shot twice, both of which deviated from his heart, but miraculously survived. When Xi Weiguo, who had been demoted to the leader of the gang, came to visit him.
, he actually opened his mouth and asked Xi Weiguo for a cigarette. Xi Weiguo was also a jerk. He didn't care about his injury and handed it over with a smile. At this time, a war reporter came over and took a picture of this beautiful moment.
The two of them were smoking.
"Kaizi, I owe you my life." Xi Weiguo said.
"Want to pay it back?" Huang Kai smiled.
"Yes, I don't want to owe anyone anything."
"Okay, remember, you owe me your life. Maybe I will ask you to repay me one day in this life."
“It’s a deal!”
The two of them smiled alike and actually made a ridiculous promise.
Xu Aiping put all the dishes on the table and looked at her husband standing blankly in front of the photo frame. She knew that he remembered many things from the past. This was a habit of Xi Weiguo. Every time he came home, he would always eat in these dusty places.
I have stood in front of my memory for a long time, feeling nostalgic and feeling.
Especially for the photo that he just touched with his hand, Xu Aiping couldn't remember how many times it had been wiped by Xi Weiguo. So from the side, you can clearly find that the outer glass of this photo is thicker than other places.
is more rough.
One of the people in the photo is her husband, and the other is named Huang Kai, who was a soldier in the Xi Weiguo Regiment in the past. He used his own life to save Xi Weiguo in that battle, but later due to some things, he...
He mysteriously disappeared. For this reason, Xi Weiguo sent many people to search for it, but there was still no news. Whenever he thought of these things, Xi Weiguo always muttered to himself: "Kaizi, where are you? I
Xi Weiguo still owes you a life and has not repaid it?"
Xu Aiping remembered that one time, in order to comfort her husband, she said sincerely, "Weiguo, after so many years, maybe this person is long gone."
As soon as Xu Aiping finished speaking, Xi Weiguo suddenly roared, "It's impossible, Kaizi can't die, it's impossible."
From then on, Xu Aiping never dared to mention it in front of Xi Weiguo.
Looking at Xi Weiguo, Xu Aiping walked over quietly and gently put her hands on her husband's broad and strong shoulders, "Weiguo, it's time to eat." Her voice was very soft and soft.
"Yes." Xi Weiguo turned his back, smiled at Xu Aiping, and held his wife's hand tightly. Xu Aiping could clearly see the tears in her husband's eyes.
"Dad, Mom, come quickly, what are you waiting for?" Xiyang shouted loudly. She seemed really happy today, but she didn't know whether it was because of her father's return or seeing the person she thought about day and night.
.
Xu Aiping rolled her eyes at the sunset and said, "Your brother hasn't come yet, so you know how to eat."
Xiyang chuckled and said, "Ignore him. If he comes and eats so quickly, we won't have any good food to eat."
Xi Weiguo didn't say anything and sat on the seat near the north, followed by Xu Aiping and Xiyang also sat down.
"Everyone eat, Xiao Zhan doesn't have to wait for him, everyone is free to do as he pleases!" Now that Xi Weiguo had spoken, Xu Aiping had nothing to say. Besides, Hu Shengli and the little soldier Chen Tianfang were both guests, and Xi Zhan was hers.
My son doesn't need to be so open-minded.
Seeing this, Hu Shengli got excited. How could he not show off the two bottles of Maotai he brought for such an occasion? Looking at Xu Aiping, he said seriously: "Uncle Xi, I just brought two bottles of wine today.
Just have a good drink."
Xi Weiguo was a rough man who liked to smoke and drink. After hearing this, although he didn't like Hu Shengli, he still couldn't resist the alcohol addiction in his body. He immediately said with a smile: "Aiping, take it out quickly."
Let this kid have a good taste, he is a little drunkard."
"The general knows how to make fun of me." Chen Tianfang said with a red face.
"You're still shy." Xiyang also laughed. For a moment, she really felt that this little warrior was quite interesting, so she couldn't help but join in and help Xi Weiguo talk about him.
Hu Shengli was left alone, not to mention the anger in his heart.
Xi Zhan didn't show up at noon due to the affairs of the Armed Forces Department. He drank up all two bottles of wine from Hu Shengli during this meal. Xi Weiguo was dizzy. The young soldier Chen Tianfang was also top-heavy. Hu Shengli was even more
Catering to Xi Weiguo, he drank so much that he vomited in the bathroom, causing Xi Yang to feel nauseous. Sometimes people are like this. If you like him, he looks cute even when he is drunk, but it is completely different if you are disgusted.
, now Xiyang hates Hu Shengli from the bottom of her heart, she just wants him to leave her house quickly, but how can Hu Shengli drive a car at this time? As soon as he walked out of the bathroom door, he fell on the ground and bumped into a dead pig.
Fell asleep just like that.
Shen Sanquan returned home and replaced all the parts of the rotten diesel engine. In the afternoon, he took it to the reservoir and experimented with it. I have to say that Shen Sanquan's skills are really good, and he is still without a master.
Zitong, after he fiddled with the old-fashioned diesel engine, it pumped water with great power, which caused Shen Wanyuan to cheer beside him, and even regarded Shen Sanquan as his prospective son-in-law.
"Three punches, this diesel engine will be of great help in the future." Shen Wanyuan said with praise while holding a cigarette in his mouth.
"That is, without such modern equipment, it would be possible to rely on manual selection."
Shen Wanyuan spent a lot of money on the greenhouse project this time. From what I learned at the farmer’s market today, many villages are already working on this technology. The more people working on it means fierce competition. Can we make money from this in the future?
But it's a crucial question.
There are seven or eight acres of idle rice fields in Nangang Village near the reservoir. If Shen Sanquan had followed Shen Sanquan's previous idea, it would be a big project to use four acres of land to grow rapeseed and four acres to grow greenhouse vegetables. For this purpose, Shen Wanyuan specially A small group meeting was held in the village. The old and young men in the village were quite convinced of Shen Wanyuan. In everyone's words, although this old guy is old now, his vision is not bad at all. If you follow him, you will lose money. No, not to mention Shen Sanquan personally leading the team. In this way, the team at the greenhouse base has been formed. Shen Sanquan has become a well-deserved captain. He is in charge of everything and has real power. As for Shen Wanyuan, The main thing is to do some simple management work, such as the collection of vegetables, the salary and benefits of each staff, and you need to get paid for doing things in the village. Otherwise, no matter how big your face is, Shen Wanyuan, Shen Sanquan, others will not accept it. of.
The two were busy all day, and in the evening Shen Wanyuan took Shen Sanquan to her home on the pretext of work. Grandma Shen was also used to this. Shen Sanquan spent too much time eating at Shen Wanyuan's house, and basically had time. Shen Wanyuan would come and call, and Shen Sanquan was as thick-skinned as the city wall. He was always there when he was called. After eating, he didn't forget to ask Shen Tian to steal a bag from the front door. He ate, drank and took it. Who doesn't want good things?
So without any room for thought, Shen Sanquan happily agreed.
Shen Wanyuan's wife Xu Haiying is an out-and-out village woman. She has not suffered much after marrying Shen Wanyuan. However, she was born with a bad life and suffers from asthma. It is normal to hear that Shen Sanquan is coming to eat. Busy in the kitchen, the little girl Shen Tian tried her best to search for the good things at home, including free-range eggs, fragrant meat, and the eels that Shen Wanyuan caught in his free time. Shen Wanyuan brought them all out. Yuan pretended not to see it, but in his heart he was extremely disdainful of his daughter's behavior. This girl was not half as kind to her father as she was to this boy.
At the wine table, Shen Wanyuan was still talking excitedly about the bright future of Nangang Village, imagining the enthusiastic response after the greenhouse vegetables were put on the market. As a village chief, it is most practical to be able to lead everyone to get rich and become well-off. Shen Wanyuan Yuan did a good job at this, but sometimes he was too willing to do it. Fortunately, the lucky star Shen Sanquan came to Nangang Village, so that his plans could be realized one by one. Shen Wanyuan kept urging him to drink, and Shen Wanyuan continued to persuade him to drink. Yuan's ability to drink was not good, and he was old, so he was no match for Shen Sanquan. He quickly fell down. Shen Sanquan smiled and ate three bowls of rice before he stood up and left.
When she walked to the door, Shen Tian ran over as promised, stuffed a bag of large qianmen into Shen Sanquan's pocket, and at the same time said without forgetting: "Brother Sanquan, smoking is not good, you should smoke less in the future. "
"Third brother has taken note of it."
Shen Sanquan's heart felt hot. In Nangang Village or in this world, apart from his grandma and sister, I'm afraid Shen Tian would be the best to him. This little girl has a good temper and is diligent. She is a good little wife. However, Shen Sanquan didn't think anything wrong about her. In his opinion, Shen Tian was just like his own sister. All he had to do was take good care of her. There were many young men in Nangang and Beigang who were grouchy in their crotches. It was Shen Tian's idea, but under Shen Sanquan's lustful power, he could only stare.
Shen Sanquan walked staggeringly towards his home. Shen Tian kept looking at him, then suddenly ran quickly and rushed in front of him, "Brother Sanquan, I really want to ask you a question?"
Shen Sanquan smiled, "May I ask?"
Shen Tian lowered her head, pursed her lips, and looked very reserved as if she wanted to say something but didn't want to.
"If you have anything to say, just say it. Third brother is here, is he the one bullying you?"
Shen Tian raised her head and stared at Shen Sanquan, "Brother Sanquan, do you like that girl named Xiyang?"
