Chapter 87: Changing the elbow and armpit is a false alarm
(please collect)
As the emcee said "Condolences", Xue Xiang let go of the little guy's hand, and more than ten people in the first row walked to the glass coffin and stared at the remains. The old man looked calm, with black hair, and was covered by a wide red flag.
to chest
He was wearing a gray tunic suit, neatly buttoned up, and his face was natural, as if he was sleeping soundly. Amidst the sound of sad music, Xue Xiang bowed down and paid tribute along with everyone. The little guy obeyed his instructions and followed him.
Bow.
Xue Xiang didn't know that hundreds of people's eyes were all on the little guy at this moment, just because, looking at the whole hall, there was only this one doll, and it was dressed cutely without losing its dignity. The little guy was already pretty.
Yuzhuo, wearing purple shorts and short sleeves, exposed her fat little arms and legs, and tied a wide red scarf like a scarf around her neck, like a group of decaying little angels guarding her, how could she not be conspicuous?
The old man who presided over the ceremony was moved when he saw that the little guy was so well-behaved and cute. Although the previous ceremony was solemn, he always felt that something was missing. It turned out to be a lack of warmth. Which family pays homage to the deceased without descendants to participate? The farewell ceremony of the old man,
How could there be a lack of dolls? Fortunately, there is a little girl to support the scene, otherwise it would be a big oversight. Thinking of this, the old man looked at the little guy with more and more gentle eyes.
When Xue Xiang saw from the corner of his eye that the little guy beside him was obediently saluting, he felt relieved a little. Unexpectedly, at this moment, something unexpected happened. After the little guy saluted, he straightened up and looked curiously into the glass coffin.
He glanced at him and couldn't look away anymore. His big eyes were wide open and his little eyes were wide open.
He said, "Brother, why is this grandpa sleeping?" The little guy had listened to Xue Xiang's instructions and never looked into the glass coffin. When he straightened up, he finally couldn't help but be curious and saw a grandpa lying on the glass bed.
When had she ever seen such a scene, she couldn't help but ask.
The little guy's voice was still childish and crisp, but it was like thunder in Xue Xiang's ears, which scared him so much that he broke out in cold sweat. The little guy's voice was not loud, but it seemed so in this hall where there was silence and only low sorrow and music.
Everyone could hear it clearly. The master of ceremonies on the side was so frightened that he lost his voice. His open mouth could no longer be closed. When the ceremony was completed, he could not come out.
Xue Xiang's mind works very fast, and thanks to him being a complex of contradictions, if he had been a junior clerk in his previous life, he would have been paralyzed with fear. As early as the moment the little guy made a sound, he knew that something bad was going to happen, little guy
He imprinted every word in his heart and analyzed it carefully. As soon as the little guy finished speaking, he continued: "Grandpa has worked hard for the country all his life. When he is tired, of course he needs to rest. Come and salute Grandpa.
"
The little guy didn't ask any more questions, but obediently gave a Young Pioneer salute. It was something he learned from his third brother. She only remembered that the salute was like this. After the little guy finished the salute, not only Xue Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, but also countless people in the audience.
Qi breathed a sigh of relief. He could easily hear the converging sounds without straining his ears. The emcee on the side was wiping the sweat from his head for an unknown number of times. He kept looking at the old man in the center who was presiding over the ceremony. Over there
But no information came.
The emcee didn't say anything, and Xue Xiang couldn't leave. He just wanted to grab the little guy and pull her beside him. Unexpectedly, the little guy moved his calves and ran away, making the sound of small leather shoes clicking on the marble floor.
, listening to it in everyone’s heart is like beating a drum
..
How can we allow a young man like him to run around like a wolf and a dolphin?
The little guy just felt that the old man was lonely sleeping alone. Although his bed and quilt were beautiful, it was too empty around him. When the emcee saw the little guy running in front of the rostrum, he was about to wave to the guards to take her down.
The old man waved his hand towards him and made a negative gesture.
The master of ceremonies understood and lowered his raised hand. The little guy ran to the center of the rostrum, where there were many white and elegant chrysanthemums and lilies. The little guy bent down and picked up a bunch, and ran away again.
When he came back, he carefully placed it next to the glass coffin before returning to Xue Xiang...
The little guy's whole set of actions took several minutes. The entire podium was silent, and even the incessant mourning and music stopped. Hundreds of eyes fell on her, and no one dared to say anything, and no one dared to stop her.
.Until the little guy returned to Xue Xiang, the sad music started playing again.
Xue Xiang held the little guy's little hand tightly. If he didn't still have some sense, he might have crushed the little guy's hand. Even though he exerted very little force, the little guy's little hand still felt pain, and the force was in his hand.
After struggling hard, Xue Xiang noticed the little guy's movements and hurriedly reduced his strength, fearing that his aunt would cause trouble if something went wrong.
The host of the ceremony was in the same mood as Xue Xiang. He just knelt down and begged the gods and Buddhas in the sky to step aside and stop the little ancestor from causing trouble. Even though he was an atheist, he decided to believe his request. It seemed that his request
After being heard by the gods and Buddhas, the little guy returned to Xue Xiang and made no move. The master of ceremonies couldn't wait to shout "the ceremony is over", and Xue Xiang pulled the little guy and hurriedly walked to the front, and got off in three steps and two steps.
rostrum.
The little guy seemed to be aware of his elder brother's nervousness. He did not make any fuss until the end of the farewell ceremony and sat obediently in Xue Xiang's arms. After everyone paid their respects, the main leaders spoke and recalled the great and glorious life of the old man. The entire farewell ceremony lasted until one o'clock in the afternoon.
It just ended.
As soon as the ceremony ended, Xue Xiang couldn't wait to leave. Even if the office arranged lunch, he was unwilling to attend and would rather go back hungry. Cui Yu had previously explained that he would be responsible for sending the lunch back after the lunch was over. But
Wherever Xue Xiang could wait, he hugged the little guy and headed out.
As soon as he walked into the hall, he was stopped by a female voice, "Is it Comrade Xue? Wait a moment."
Xue Xiang turned around and saw a man and a woman walking towards him. The man was about forty years old and the woman was in her mid-twenties. She was holding a red box in her hand. Both of them were wearing work clothes.
It looked very similar to Cui Yu's outfit. Could it be that the trouble caused by the little guy had already been concluded and needed to be dealt with? Xue Xiang started to have random thoughts in his mind, but stopped and asked, "What's the matter?"
The female comrade said: "Hello, Comrade Xue, I am Ma Su, secretary of the Second Secretariat of the General Office. This is Director Liu Guocheng of our Second Office. Please tell you the specific situation."
Liu Guocheng took Ma Su's words and said: "Comrade Xue, it's like this. I was ordered by the funeral committee to give gifts to the children around you. The children's performance at the ceremony greatly moved the committee. The committee ordered me to
I will give this pen to the child and wish her to study hard and become a pillar of the motherland soon." After that, he took the red box from Ma Su and handed it to the little one.
The little guy hadn't seen Xue Xiang's face for a long time and had been feeling depressed. Now seeing Xue Xiang smiling and nodding, he was relieved. He took the box handed by Liu Guocheng with both hands and bowed as a return gift. Liu Guocheng touched it.
He touched the little guy's head, exchanged a few words with Xue Xiang, and led Ma Su away.
The little guy handed the box to Xue Xiang, who held it in his hand and looked at the box carefully. The red box was about twenty centimeters long and five centimeters wide. When he touched it in his hand, he couldn't tell the material.
It was not wooden, but it was neither aluminum nor iron. When he opened it, there was a silver-white pen and a card lying inside. He picked up the card first and saw the words "
Written: I wish the little boy Xue Shi will make progress in his studies and thrive. Then there is no name, only the surname. The committee acted very quickly. They knew the little guy’s name so quickly. Xue Xiang was amazed as he held the card. He stared at it again
After thinking about a few surnames, I was suddenly surprised. These surnames all represented famous people.
Xue Xiang put the pen back into the box and put it away, picked up the little guy, and strode forward. He didn't want to stay in this place for a moment...
As soon as he left the hall, he saw Jiang Chaotian leaning on the pillar in front of the door, looking at him with a smile.
"Young Master Jiang, if you're not going to eat, what are you doing here? Are you waiting for me, my brother?" Xue Xiang asked knowingly.
Jiang Chaotian stood up straight and walked closer: "Commander Xue, you are so lucky to have such a lovely sister. However, I admire your courage even more. You dare to bring a baby in this situation."
Xue Xiang was hungry, and the little guy had been complaining about hunger for a long time. He had no time to talk nonsense with him, so he said: "Young Master Jiang, if you have something to say, tell me quickly. Whenever I see you, you are always whining. Brother, I'm hungry."
It's very serious. If nothing happens, I'll go have a meal."
"It's nice to have a meal. Brother, I invited you. Anyway, it's not the first time. There is an imperial chef in the auditorium, but the atmosphere right now is not a place to eat. We'd better go outside. Wherever you choose, it's your choice." Jiang Chaotian said
It was a big deal, as if Xue Xiang had already agreed.
Xue Xiang shook his head and said, "Come on, it's not appropriate to eat anywhere right now. The impact will be bad. I'd rather go home and drink bean juice. If you have anything to say, I really don't want to waste money here with you."
Jiang Chaotian saw that Xue Xiang had not let go, so he simply stopped talking nonsense, "Do you know how much noise your sister made this time? I was scared to see it from above. It's so scary. I don't admire anything else about you.
, he just admires your luck. Normally, such a big movement should have caused big trouble, but the opinions of those old men who are always noisy are unexpected this time.
"Unanimous, what is the meaning of 'Innocent heart, comforting leader', and your words are also a wonderful answer, perfectly connecting the little guy's behavior, brother can't help but express his admiration." He had already expressed his admiration before.
Xue Xiang admired Xue Xiang's courage, and now he admired Xue Xiang's clever answer. In addition, he admired nothing else, only admired Xue Xiang's luck, which made Xue Xiang feel confused for a while.
The little guy heard Jiang Chaotian say bad words earlier and frowned, thinking that this elder brother was really rude. Later, he heard him praising him, so he changed his opinion of him. He was so proud that he rushed to Jiang Chaotian in Xue Xiang's arms.
Chaotian made a face, making Jiang Chaotian dumbfounded.
Xue Xiang rubbed the little guy's head and said, "Young Master Jiang came here specifically to tell my brother the news? I feel so kind to you, so I'll say goodbye without seeing you off. I'll see you later."
"Don't let go, there is a righteous thing, there is a real thing, for a minute, give the brother for a minute." Jiang Chaotian saw Xue Xiang who was going to walk.
right.
"Does General An have a plan? Time waits for us." Jiang Chaotian finally revealed the truth.
"How could I, a small staff officer, have the opportunity to participate in such a secret matter? You think so highly of me." Xue Xiang repeated his old tune. He had indeed been to Songzhuzhai several times during this period, but it was the old general who called him to invite him there.
Chess, as for what Jiang Chaotian discussed with him last time at Lao Mo, he never mentioned it to the old general at all. Xue Xiang knew Jiang Chaotian's intentions. Jiang Chaotian was just
I hope that Xue Xiang will come forward to persuade General An, and then he will just make a pandering gesture, trying to get the support of An Lao at the minimum price. How can Xue Xiang be fooled, even if General An is really like what happened in history
The choice was to go down a dead end, and Xue Xiang had all the time to remonstrate. At this time, it was Jiang Chaotian's side that was anxious, not himself, so of course he was leisurely waiting for him to bid.
"Brother, what are you saying? Every time we talk about serious matters, you would say it. Isn't it interesting?" Jiang Chaotian didn't remember that this guy treated him like this last time in Lao Mo. It seems that the situation is not good.
ah.
"Haha, I'm used to it, I'm just used to it, but I have to say that this phrase works, doesn't it?" Seeing Jiang Chaotian's embarrassment, Xue Xiang couldn't help but laugh.
"Okay, brother Xue, I won't talk to you in vain. Since you don't like my statement, someone will go to Songzhuzhai in person in the near future. I hope brother Xue can put in a lot of good words and make this matter happen, brother
I will be grateful." This is
What Jiang Chaotian really meant was that last time he tried to get a hint of the intention from Xue Xiang (in fact, Xue Xiang deliberately revealed it to him), this time he naturally turned to Xue Xiang. Since last time,
Lao tried his best to protect Xue Xiang at the meeting. He
I realized that this person had an unusual weight in An Lao's heart. He was by no means just a consultant in name only, but he was probably a person similar to himself. However, regardless of whether his guess was correct or not, there would be no harm in playing his card.
He knew that Xue Xiang probably wouldn't watch the victory over the other side. After all, his family had fallen to such an end, and it was no longer possible to reconcile with the other side. Besides, he didn't really want An Xi to come over, he just wanted to make the play more realistic.
.
"Whether it succeeds or not depends on God's will. The gifts are ready." Xue Xiang made a philistine look and still refused to say anything. After that, he hugged the little guy and strode away. Of course he wouldn't go now.
Find General An, if he comes in now
If he spoke, he might shake An Lao's mind to lead to a dead end. He needed An Lao's stubborn spirit of never hitting the wall and never looking back, to squeeze the maximum benefit from Jiang Chaotian, and then he would come forward to analyze for the old man.
situation, make the best of it
He made great efforts to pull the old man onto the track he had planned. If the old man still planned to walk down the alley until it was dark, he would have no choice but to try and find a way to escape. However, he asked himself whether he was confident in persuading the old man. If the old man could
Isn't this a favor to oneself just because he values his own performance? It shows that the old man still agrees with the judgment he expressed when he played chess with him for the first time. His overall view has been displayed in front of the old man, and he will definitely not turn a blind eye.
Xue Xiang hugged the little guy and went away on his own. Jiang Chaotian looked at his retreating back with a smile on his lips.
ps: The pressure is huge. A certain author hid in the corner and prayed in the dark that he would fall to the eleventh place at ten o'clock. Do not hesitate to save it. Guys, does that firepower have to weaken?
