Even though Liu Rulong is the leader of the garrison, he is a solid lieutenant general. During meetings, he slaps the table and glares. Not many people are not afraid of him. The political commissar of Zheng Miaohong all gives him three points and respects him three points. However, at home, he is not arbitrary and very arbitrary.
He respected and loved his wife and children, so Xu Jing was so anxious that she really dared to make trouble with him.
"What are you talking about?" Liu Rulong looked at his hysterical wife, confused and funny at the same time.
"Aren't you going to marry our daughter to Yang Guodong's son?" Xu Jing was also a little confused and asked her husband Liu Rulong angrily.
"I think they won't marry my daughter yet!" Liu Rulong suddenly realized, and his wife laughed angrily.
Xu Jing stared at her husband, observing his words for a long time. She was sure that she had misunderstood her husband. She breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's a good idea not to marry him. What kind of child does he want to marry from an ordinary family?"
"Yang Chen is marrying Mr. Wu's daughter Wu Rui." Liu Rulong gave an answer that Xu Jing could not have expected. Xu Jing, who had always underestimated Yang Chen, was confused on the spot.
How could the small family in Xinfeng and the leading dignitaries in the capital be involved together? Xu Jing thought hard and couldn't figure it out, and asked in surprise: "Is it true or not?"
Liu Rulong said: "It's absolutely true, everyone in the Wu family likes that kid Yang Chen."
Seeing that her husband didn't seem to be joking, Xu Jing was silent for a while and wondered: "Apart from his good looks, why didn't I find anything else good about him?"
"You women, it is easy to be blinded by superficial things, so you are often said to have long hair and short knowledge." Liu Rulong's words were thorny. He was somewhat dissatisfied with his wife for looking down on his old comrades and their family.
Can become the Wu family's son-in-law by riding a dragon.
It shows that there must be something special about Yang Chen's child.
The Wu family, especially the old man who has gone through the turbulent years and experienced all kinds of dangerous struggles in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China and has always stood at the top of the Republic, has a unique discernment and will never choose the wrong person.
Xu Jing was silent. She still couldn't figure out how the Wu family could fall in love with Yang Chen. Just like countless women clamoring to find potential stocks and marry good men, in fact, most of them don't know what kind of men are potential stocks.
man.
Liu Rulong, who was the first to be optimistic about Yang Chen, is indeed a bit regretful, but he is not a paranoid man who likes to get into trouble. Marriage is about fate.
There is no fate between my daughter and Yang Chen, so why should I be upset about it?
Liu Rulong said quietly: "Tomorrow you accompany me to attend the engagement party of Guodong's son. The two families will move around more in the future. I don't care about Guodong. Today's society is too complicated. It's not easy to have a confidant who has shared life and death.
cherish."
Xu Jing, who was still confused about how Yang Chen could capture Wu Rui, nodded noncommittally. Under the influence of her inertial thinking, she still didn't take the Yang family who had already climbed a high tree seriously.
Liu Rulong left.
The more holidays there are, the busier people in high positions will be.
Especially on the special day of National Day, the tasks of the garrison responsible for the defense of Gyeonggi become increasingly arduous.
"Mom, what were you nagging to Dad just now? The sound was so loud that it woke me up." Liu Rulong's daughter Liu Wan came downstairs in her pajamas, rubbing her sleepy eyes.
"Girl, do you remember that Yang Chen who has been to our house several times?" Xu Jing couldn't help but start chatting when she saw her precious daughter coming.
"Of course I remember..." When Liu Wan heard her mother mention Yang Chen, she looked disgusted and disdainful, and frowned: "Isn't he coming to our house again?"
Xu Jing shook her head and said, "No, he is engaged to Mr. Wu Zhang's daughter Wu Rui tomorrow."
"Director Wu's daughter?" Liu Wan's dazed little face showed her inner disbelief. Of course she knew who Director Wu was, having grown up in a military family.
Mr. Wu Zhang’s son Wu Jie is the idol that her younger brother admires and looks up to. Wu Rui is the No. 1 among the brothers in the army in the capital... She has also heard that she is very beautiful, very capable, and the proud daughter of heaven. According to rumors, this Wu
Rui is likely to become the Republic's first non-civilian female general.
What a flower that sticks to shit.
"Daughter, is it surprising?" Xu Jing, who loves gossip, asked her daughter.
"I guess Mr. Wu's daughter took the wrong medicine, or she is a big-breasted and brainless nymphomaniac." Liu Wan, who had nothing to do with herself, was not too surprised. She just felt that Wu Ruite was stupid and easy to deceive.
A smart woman wouldn't do such a stupid thing.
Xu Jing nodded and said, "You and Mom have the same idea."
"Mom, don't worry so much. They can do whatever they want. It has nothing to do with our family. How about I go shopping with you today?" Liu Wan looked at Xu Jing, laughing and acting coquettishly. She never took Yang Chen seriously.
She didn't care what happened to Yang Chen, as long as the heroine she was engaged to was not her.
"Okay..." Xu Jing happily agreed to her daughter, wondering what kind of young man her daughter could find. One thing she was convinced of was that the man her daughter was looking for would definitely be a thousand times better than Yang Chen.
On National Day, security in Beijing is very strict.
Near the **, there are ten posts, one post, five steps and one sentry, and there are a large number of special police and plainclothes policemen with live ammunition roaming and patrolling, because today the new leadership team is here to have fun with the people.
This leadership team is quite unique and gives people a refreshing feeling. It seems to be able to shoulder the historical responsibility of national rejuvenation. In the suite of Building 2 of the National Military Hall, Yang Chen watched the TV with a lot of thoughts.
As a soldier, he is naturally more concerned about national events than ordinary people, but that's all. They affect the course of history and change the state of the country. These major events are stepping stones for leaders to leave their names in history. They have nothing to do with him and there is nothing he can do to help.
Getting engaged tomorrow is what he should worry about most.
Fortunately, the Wu family has arranged almost everything.
Throughout the whole day, Yang Chen stayed with his parents and relatives at the National Military Hall, chatting with his parents until around eleven o'clock in the night. Seeing that his parents were sleepy, he went back to his room, washed up, lay on the bed, tossed and turned, thinking about the past.
In the past, the person was not excited about the engagement, but missed it. After an unknown period of time, he fell asleep in a daze until daylight dawned and a new day arrived.
"God is so generous." Yang Chen got up and opened the curtains, smiling and saying to himself. After the word "smog" became known to Chinese people, Beijing rarely had such a beautiful sky, with blue sky, white clouds, and bright sunshine.
In other rooms in Building 2, everyone in the Yang family was busy preparing for themselves. The engagement banquet was scheduled for noon. Everyone was not sure how many people would come and how many big shots there would be. The only thing they could do was...show their best side.
.
Before you know it, noon is approaching.
In the banquet hall on the first floor, beautiful waiters in cheongsam are waiting for you. The banquet hall with six round tables is decorated with lights and colors, and it is full of joy.
Engagement is not marriage.
The Wu family didn't alarm too many people.
Most of the guests arriving one after another are relatives of the Yang and Wu families.
"Old Liu... I haven't seen you for a long time. I miss you so much!" Yang Guodong grabbed his old comrade Liu Rulong who came in advance and was very happy.
Brothers who have shared life and death together meet again.
"Both each other..." After Liu Rulong finished speaking, he laughed heartily, and the two men held their hands tightly.
When everyone learned that Mr. Wu was also coming, they all gathered at the door of Building 2 to greet him. Relatives from both families gathered in a large crowd, and there was endless laughter and laughter.
The unassuming motorcade drove slowly, the noise stopped abruptly, everyone held their breath and concentrated, and Yang Chen's relatives without exception showed excitement and anxiety.
The nanny car in the middle of the motorcade stopped opposite the gate of Building 2. The security guard, health doctor, and secretary quickly got out of the car. Relatives of the Wu and Yang families also gathered around. Someone opened the door, and Wu Rui, who was wearing a straight military uniform, helped his grandfather.
After getting out of the car, the ninety-year-old man smiled and nodded at everyone.
Everyone in the Yang family, including Yang Guoliang's wife, a vulgar woman who had never seen the world and had little discernment, were also in awe and were extremely pious.
"Where is Xiaochen?" The old man couldn't help but ask his granddaughter without seeing Yang Chen.
"You don't want to see what he looks like in military uniform. I guess he is changing clothes now." Wu Rui leaned close to her grandfather's ear and spoke in a low voice. The elderly man's hearing was getting worse.
"Okay, okay." The old man nodded with a smile and asked Wu Rui and Yang Chen to wear military uniforms. This was his request because he was afraid that he would never have the chance to see this scene in the future.
Wu Rui introduced Yang Chen's parents and some relatives to the old man. The old man nodded in an amiable manner, and finally held Yang Guodong's hand and praised Yang Chen repeatedly.
Yang Guodong was so excited that he could not speak.
"Grandpa..." A shout came from behind the crowd. As people turned aside to give way, they looked around and saw that it was Yang Chen. Yang Chen was wearing a military uniform. The military uniform was sent by Wu Jie and it seemed to fit well. In addition, Yang Chen himself
He is born with good clothes, majestic appearance, noble appearance and handsome appearance.
"Eh... hasn't this kid been discharged from the army long ago? Why is he wearing a military uniform and still the leader?" Xu Jing was surprised and asked Liu Rulong in a low voice.
"There are so many things you don't know." Liu Rulong sighed.
Xu Jing could no longer ignore Yang Chen and looked at Yang Chen with eyes as complicated as her mood.
Most of the relatives of the Yang family were secretly surprised. They always thought that Yang Chen would retire after serving as a top soldier for a few years. Who would have thought of this situation? Thanks to the many unexpected things they encountered during this period, their nerves were stimulated to be extremely tenacious.
Think of it as dull or dumbfounded.
"It's better to put on the military uniform..." Mr. Wu looked at Yang Chen who walked to the side of his granddaughter and smiled from ear to ear. The two children stood side by side, like a golden boy.
"Let's go in first..." The old man waved his hand and spoke. Yang Chen and Wu Rui supported each other on the left and right, followed by Yang Guodong, Liu Hua, Wu Yuanchao and Yan Nanping, as well as a crowd of black people, pouring into Building 2.
The banquet begins.
Getting engaged is not as complicated as getting married.
After the banquet is over, it means that Yang Chen and Wu Rui are engaged and have agreed on a wedding date next spring. This is the old man's wish. The sooner the better.
The old man was afraid that he would not be able to catch up with the most important and happiest moment in his granddaughter's life.
"Zhang Lingfeng has had a lot of bad luck recently, including the black jail incident, the high-speed rail scandal, and the embezzlement and carve-up of the Three Gorges Fund. In the end, they were all traced to him. Although the investigation ended in vain once he was traced, he has made some of the people above him dissatisfied.
If something happens again and adds fuel to the flames, I guess... that guy will probably be able to walk around without food."
During the break of the banquet, Wu Jie pulled Yang Chen to a secluded corner and laughed evilly while talking. Yang Chen nodded thoughtfully and then reminded Wu Jie, "Don't be impatient, be careful not to make things worse."
