Zhuang Zhenguo was sitting on the sofa at home with a pot of Pu'er tea next to him. The cup was filled with tea and was steaming hot.

The operation that year was very successful. So far, every three months, Zhuang Zhenguo has to go to the hospital to review his body to ensure that the cancer has not recurred.

It's just that the liver has been damaged more or less after that, and the wine can't be touched again. In the past, Zhuang Zhenguo liked to drink, but now his wife Liang Shaoqin put away all the alcoholic things at home.

Life after retirement is so boring. Fortunately, the years are good, the country is prosperous, and life is much better now than before.

Zhuang Zhenguo was satisfied.

Every year on the Qingming Festival, Zhuang Zhenguo would go to Malipo, and together with his surviving comrades, he would put on the 78-style military uniform, wear the 78-style military cap, tie up the armed belt, hang up the green water bottle, and hold the The red flag with the unit's number, came to the martyr's cemetery, poured glasses of wine, lit cigarettes, and sat there chatting with old comrades.

When people are old, it is easy to recall the past.

What else is there to be dissatisfied with?

It seems there is no more.

Both sons now have their own lives. Zhuang Buping is still doing his business, and it's doing well; Zhuang Yan has also performed well in the army. With his own small family, his daughter-in-law Lin Qingying is even more speechless, and can only be described in two words— excellent.

The only regret is that Zhuang Yan rarely has the opportunity to go home, sometimes not once a year.

Just like I had said that I would be back during the Spring Festival, and then I called again, saying that I would participate in a closed training camp, and then I would go abroad to compete.

Playing abroad?

Did you go to country E?

At this point, Zhuang Zhenguo felt that his son was already promising.

However, he still felt that it was not enough.

What is going abroad?

I also went out back then, and it was still shot all the way.

The son just went to the game.

Contest? Isn't it just a fight!

no big deal.

The mobile phone placed on the table suddenly rang with melodious music, Zhuang Zhenguo took off his eyes and tilted his head to have a look.

"Hey?"

This phone number is familiar. It is the phone number of the original unit. It starts with 2173 and is dedicated to all departments under the Binhai Municipal Government.

"Who is it please?"

"Cousin-in-law! It's me, Li Pingyang."

A familiar voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Oh, it's Pingyang." Zhuang Zhenguo was a little strange: "Are you looking for your sister? She's not here, go shopping, you call her cell phone."

"No, no, I'm looking for you." Li Pingyang said, "My sister will be back later, right?"

"Of course I'll come back." Zhuang Zhenguo smiled and said, "Where can she go if she doesn't come back?"

Li Pingyang was Liang Shaoqin's cousin, and he was a section chief in the Armed Forces Department.

Usually there are walks, usually only during festivals.

But today is not a holiday, why did you suddenly call?

"Just come back, I'll come over in person later." Li Pingyang said.

Zhuang Zhenguo picked up the teacup, took a slow sip of tea, and said, "Come here? Okay, is there anything?"

"Brother-in-law, I'm here to announce the good news to you!" Li Pingyang said happily: "Zhengyan, it's really embarrassing for Lao Zhuang's father, he has made a contribution! First class! Later, the deputy head of the district government in charge of the Armed Forces Department, let's The Minister of Armed Forces, as well as me, will personally come to your house to deliver the good news and plaques!"

"Ah?" Zhuang Zhenguo spit out a sip of tea and coughed again and again: "First class?!"

"That's right!" Li Pingyang said, "Zhengyan went abroad to participate in the international scout competition, led the team to win the championship, and won the first-class merit once!"

Zhuang Zhenguo was stunned, speechless.

"Cousin-in-law, cousin-in-law..." Li Pingyang asked several times on the other end of the phone, worrying: "Are you all right? Don't get too excited, we'll be there in about two hours, just make sure someone is at home, right, hurry up Calling my cousin to go home, how could she not be here at this time?"

"Oh...Okay...Okay..." Zhuang Zhenguo murmured, the line was disconnected, and there was a beeping busy tone.

He sat blankly on the sofa for a while, then suddenly put down the phone, got up and walked back to the room.

In front of the large wardrobe, he squatted down, opened the door of the wardrobe, opened the bottom drawer, took out a large iron box, and opened it.

Lying inside is his military medals, a total of eight.

Due to the age, the ribbons are a little old, but the military medals are still golden, and there is a heavy feeling in the hand, and a sense of honor suddenly surges in my heart.

Soon, a trace of sadness struck.

Those sacrificed comrades flashed before his eyes.

Zhuang Zhenguo sighed, carefully placed the military medals, then closed the iron box, put it back in place, and returned to the living room sofa to sit down.

Over the years, more and more solemn achievements have been made. Zhuang Zhenguo recalled that his son has been a soldier for nine years, and he has won four second-class merits, three third-class merits, and other gold medals such as training tops. clear.

In his second year in the army, Zhuang Yan went home once.

At that time, because of his serious illness, he almost lost his life.

When Zhuang Yan came back, he sat in front of the hospital bed and talked with himself for a long time.

I remember that solemnly saying that I must exceed my number of meritorious deeds, and I will definitely win more military medals than myself.

This time, with this first-class merit, it is already the eighth military merit badge.

Quantitatively, it has been flat.

Sitting on the sofa and thinking for a while, he picked up the phone and wanted to call his son Zhuang Yan.

As soon as I picked up the phone, it rang.

one look.

What a coincidence!

It was his son's solemn phone call.

Hurry up and listen.

"Son..."

"Dad!" On the other end of the phone, the solemn tone sounded very pleasant.

Could it be that he knew that he had made meritorious deeds, and the Ministry of Armed Forces was going to send a good news to his home today, and the time was clear?

"I have something important to tell you."

"You know?" Zhuang Zhenguo asked.

"Know what?" Zhuang Yan was a little strange.

Zhuang Zhenguo said: "The Ministry of Armed Forces called just now, and your cousin said that they will send you the good news of your meritorious deeds and a plaque later with the government."

Zhuang Yan suddenly realized: "Oh, it's about meritorious service."

Zhuang Zhenguo felt that Zhuang Yan didn't seem to be too excited about Li Gong, so he said, "Listen to your tone, it doesn't seem like you're very excited."

Zhuang Yan said: "Actually, it's nothing. In fact, it's not my credit alone. Besides, it's not the first time that I've made a contribution, so I'm so excited?"

"Look at you!"

Hearing his son's usual tone, when Laozi was angry: "Look at your attitude!"

"I...what attitude..." Zhuang Yan heard that Zhuang Zhenguo was already angry.

He couldn't understand why? How do you say runaway runaway?

"Dad, don't be angry, be careful of hurting your liver."

"It doesn't matter if I hurt the liver or not!" Zhuang Zhenguo was really angry: "You think you are amazing! You have made a first-class merit, but you are amazing! There are too many merits, you are saying that you are amazing Compared to my comrades lying in Malipo, you **** are nothing! Isn't it just a competition? You are too embarrassed to take a first-class merit for you?! If it was me, I quickly returned. !"

Only then did Zhuang Yan understand that the father was angry because of this.

Thinking about it, I didn't take into account my father's feelings.

Many of the heroes who sacrificed in the southern border were only third- and second-class. They won first-class by themselves. They sang high-profile with their father who had fought in war, and acted very lightly. No wonder The old man will run wild.

"Dad, don't be angry, I'm wrong? Don't say it, I really went to the commander to retire, but the commander didn't agree, saying it was decided by the superior, I don't want it, that's disobeying the order. "

Zhuang Zhenguo is also aware of these things. In fact, he just scolded his son just because his solemn attitude made him feel a little floating, and he drenched him with cold water.

Since the children admit their mistakes, so be it.

What's more, getting a first-class merit in peacetime is really no joke.

Since the superior has approved it, it must be that the son has done a good job.

Thinking of this, I finally feel better.

"What do you mean by calling me?"

After taking a breath, Zhuang Zhenguo turned to the topic.

"Dad, it's like this, didn't I go to the competition recently, and the training was closed for half a year, so after I came back, the army gave me 15 days of vacation. I want to take this opportunity to hold the wedding banquet, which is also clear. Shadow has an explanation."

"give a feast?"

Zhuang Zhenguo was taken aback.

"Are you going to come back for a drink?"

"No, I'm going to set up wine here in Linhai City," said Zhuang Yan.

"Why don't you come back to your hometown to set up wine?!" Zhuang Zhenguo's voice immediately became a bit rougher. Although he is an old soldier, his traditional concept is still very strong~lightnovelpub.net~ When it comes to wine, how can it be done at work , whatever you say, you have to go back to your hometown and put on a beautiful scene!

Drinking in the army?

what is this?

The relatives of the hometown, those three aunts and eight aunts, what would they say, what would they think?

"No, you have to know how to set up wine in Binhai City!"

He gave solemn instructions in an imperative tone.
