Fortunately, the dishes are ready-made, and you can get out of the pot by rinsing them with water.

Yingfang fried a bean, mixed an eggplant, and sent a sample of the big white goose in the army farm to lay eggs, and the farm comrades gave her a meal every three days.

Huang Chengcheng's goose custard was brought to the table, and Dr. He smiled happily.

"This is the egg laid by the big white goose sent by your uncle, right? Oh, Lao Xiao, this trip is really the right time to accompany you! I haven't eaten goose eggs for many years, and I want to taste everything I say today." ”

Ying Fang said with a smile: "The goose eggs are less laid, and the hot weather is not every day, but there are still a few saved, and when I turn around, I will pack two for you and take home steamed egg custard to eat." ”

"Don't, don't!" Dr. He waved his hand hurriedly, "It's embarrassing enough to grab eggs with you pregnant woman, where can I eat and bring them again." ”

Ying Fang smiled and didn't say anything more.

I thought that there were really few goose eggs at home, and it was not decent to take them out alone, but there were a lot of wild eggs, and they wouldn't last long in the hot weather, so it was better to send them some. It's better to be happy alone than to be happy with all.

I had a lively and lively light meal, and it was almost two o'clock when the stall closed.

Xiao Zhiwen came this time, in addition to thanking the person who gave him the recipe for chronic pharyngitis medicine and tea, he also secretly visited the provincial military district to make arrangements for the employment of veterans of subordinate units, so he intentionally or unintentionally asked at the dinner table whether there were any soldiers in Unit 713 who were facing retirement and change jobs recently.

Ying Fang didn't know so many twists and turns, so naturally she was telling the truth.

Fortunately, in the situation of the third battalion commander, she had heard Xiang Gang and Commander Chen mention it more than once. At first, the army did intend to transfer Li Jianshu to the civilian department, but his family refused, shouting that the civilian department has little allowance and is not cost-effective, and it is better to go home and farm, after all, the old family is more convenient to take care of...... Balabala, Li Jianshu didn't know which tendon was fastened, but he actually agreed. Only then did he apply for a one-time consolation payment, and the matter of transferring to a civilian job was forgotten.

This matter is not only Yingfang, but several military wives in the regiment know about it. Therefore, it is not a secret.

Xiao Zhiwen nodded, took a bite of the food, and asked casually: "Then do you know an excellent battalion commander named Xiang Gang?"

Ying Fang was stunned.

Fang Zhouzhen laughed on the side: "Dad, isn't Xiang Gang Xiao Shu's lover." Unless there are two battalion commanders named Xiang Gang in 713. But I guess it's very unlikely, isn't it, Xiaoshu?"

Ying Fang nodded: "Our army really doesn't have a second excellent battalion commander named Xiang Gang, what you are talking about should be my lover." Then the fox asked, "Is there anything that my lover has not done well?"

Xiao Zhiwen was slightly surprised, turned his head to look at Dr. He, and his expression seemed to ask: "Xiao Xiang, who has been hanging on your mouth all day, turns out to be the outstanding battalion commander who reported to Xiang Gang on July 13?"

Xiang Gang's name, Lao He is not the first time to mention it, and it is not the first time he has heard it. Before going down to the grassroots level, I went to the provincial military district to sit down, and I heard the commander also mention it, and said that this young man was Xia Lao's New Year's friend.

Xiao Zhiwen knows too well what kind of temper Old Xia has, if it doesn't really get into his eyes, he will never talk about it. It can be seen that this young battalion commander named Xiang Gang has great strength.

Doctor He spread his hands: "You didn't ask me my full name, how did I know that you were here for a political trial." ”

As soon as she heard the political trial, Ying Fang subconsciously straightened her back. This is related to the future of his own man, and he must not hold back.

Fang Zhouzhen thought for a while and said: "Dad, in fact, we have something here, and it all depends on the help of Xiao Shu's lover, Uncle and Aunt Dinghua said it, so that he has the opportunity to thank others." ”

Third?

Xiao Zhiwen was surprised: "Your uncle also came to X Province?

"Uh......" Fang Zhouzhen hesitated, not knowing whether to say it or not.

At this time, Wang Xiaohu ran up and called Yingfang: "Sister-in-law, there is a long-distance call from your regiment commander's office, saying that there is a very urgent matter looking for you in your hometown, and you will call again in a quarter of an hour." The regimental commander sent a guard to inform you that he was still waiting downstairs. If you go, take the guard's bicycle and save yourself the need to walk. ”

When Ying Fang heard this, she took off her apron, and bothered Fang Zhouzhen to help greet Doctor He, and she followed the guards to the army to answer the phone.

Fang Zhouzhen's heart moved, it couldn't be that Uncle They really found the family that adopted their cousin back then, and they called to verify it now, right?

He hurriedly said, "Why don't I go with you, didn't Dad come by car?" The driver finished eating, let him drive us. The car is much faster than the bike, and the key is stability. It's good that you carry your body and try to have as few bumps as possible. ”

"Lao He and I have eaten about the same, and I just want to go to the army to have a look, so let's just go together. When Xiao Zhiwen heard this, he took the lead in standing up and instructed the guards to notify the driver waiting at the sentry box, "Let Xiao Liu start the car first." ”

"Yes!" the guards followed Wang Xiaohu down first.

The others followed closely downstairs and set off for the troops.

……

Besides, they found Xiao Yanwu and his wife in Ninghe County all the way.

Listening to Yao Mu, he got off at this train station back then, and then found a nearby hill to leave their baby daughter. In addition to the Yanqi River, which runs through the county, the countryside on all sides can be said to be backed by mountains.

Not to mention that it has been so many years. Although I brought enough people with me on this trip, I didn't know where to start for a while in the face of one mountain after another and the villages below the mountains.

Xiao Yanwu and his entourage went around the county seat, asked many people along the way, but they didn't get the news they wanted, they gritted their teeth, and decided to look for them in the mountains and villages in a carpet way.

Yanqi Commune was last in line by them - because it was separated by a river.

According to Yao Mu's recollection, after getting off the train, he ran for a while with their daughter on his back, and then casually found a hill and put it down and left.

Therefore, I did not take the Yanqi Commune, which needed to cross the river by ferry, to heart. Not leaving it out is already cautious in their opinion.

Who knows that the Yanqi River was not in this situation fifteen years ago - not far from the railway station, close to Linxian that section of the river is very narrow, the protruding natural boulders on both sides of the river lie across the river, I don't know which era built a stone arch bridge, for the people on both sides of the strait to take a shortcut to and fro. It's a pity that this bridge was not less affected by the beacon fire during the war years, and gradually could not bear the weight and declined.

After the bridge collapsed, the government simply blew up these two natural boulders, which is why the Yanqi River is now wide and flat.

It's a pity that this matter has been a little bit old, and the locals rarely mention it anymore, and the foreign tourists don't know about it.

Therefore, Xiao Yanwu first finalized the several villages he was looking for, all of which were south of the railway station. On the first day of arrival, he returned empty-handed, and on the second day, he returned empty-handed.

In the evening of the same day, I returned to the county hotel and ordered a few home-cooked dishes at the state-run restaurant next door, and was about to start eating in a depressed mood, when I suddenly heard a loud radio from the county revolutionary committee, and then the announcer spoke Mandarin with a local accent:

"Here's a missing person notice! Here's a missing person notice! Two travelers from Kyoto, pay attention! Your relatives and friends in Haicheng are looking for you, and the person you're looking for has clues, so please be sure to rush to the hall of the county revolutionary committee. Again, two travelers from Kyoto, please pay attention! Your relatives and friends in Haicheng are looking for you, and the person you are looking for has a clue, please ......"

"What a strange thing is this missing person notice!" interjected a foreigner eating in the restaurant, "If you want to find someone, you don't have to tell you what the person's name is or what they are wearing." There are no heads and no brains, it's strange to understand them!"

But the person concerned just understood!

Xiao Yanwu and his wife could not care about eating, put aside their chopsticks, and hurriedly went straight to the hall of the county revolutionary committee.

Secretary Yang sent by Xiao Dinghua was waiting for them in the hall.

Seeing the couple running in sweating profusely, they hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

"No need to be polite. Xiao Yanwu waved his hand, "Dinghua has a clue over there, so he sent you to find us?"

"Yes, Third Master. Secretary Yang 1510 relayed the news that Xiao Dinghua asked him to convey, and finally said, "That's what the director said, and said that the third master, you must have a charter in your heart after listening to it." I didn't explain anything else, but asked me to rush to the county revolutionary committee as soon as possible to meet you and listen to your instructions. ”

Xiao Yanwu and his wife looked at each other.

The little girl who found the golden lock of her daughter, her hometown is from Ninghe County. And the golden lock in her hand was not picked up, but ripped from her cousin.

Xiao Dinghua didn't say that Shu Caiyun's cousin was the daughter-in-law of the warm-hearted young man who gave them a ventilating message a while ago. First, I am afraid that they will know about it, and second, I am afraid that something else will happen. Anyway, they all came to Ninghe County, and it is not too late to find out and recognize their relatives.

Rao is like this, and the two of them are also very excited. Clues are good!

"Great, Lao Xiao!" Jiang Xinrou's eyes moistened excitedly, "Let's go to the Yanqi Commune that Dinghua said immediately to find an insider to ask for clarification!"

"Madam, Yanqi Commune is separated from the county seat by a river. At this point, the ferry terminal has long been off work. If you want to go, you can only wait for the first boat tomorrow. Secretary Yang said.

Jiang Xinrou looked lost.

But the ship could not be transferred temporarily. Besides, when it's dark, even if you send a boat to send them to the other side of the river, you have to find a place to stay.

Xiao Yanwu sighed lightly, patted his wife's shoulder, and said with relief: "It's easy to do if you have clues, and it's the same to find it tomorrow, don't be in a hurry at this time." ”

But this night, not only his wife, but also Xiao Yanwu himself stayed awake all night.

The baby girl is separated by a river from herself, and she can't wait to swim across the river overnight to recognize her relatives.

Early the next morning, the two of them had breakfast and set off for Yanqi Commune.

Secretary Yang accompanied them. The rest of the people stayed in the county seat for the time being and waited for news.

What are so many people doing with them? It's not a group fight.

During the busy farming period, every family got up early. Breakfast is sent to the seven or eight-year-old children in the family to be eaten in the field.

Therefore, Xiao Yanwu and the three of them got off the dock, and all the way down, the villagers who went down to the ground saw it, and they all guessed which big man went to the countryside to inspect.

Although Xiao Sanye has not been doing business for many years, his courage is still there.

Jiang Xinrou's face could not hide her tiredness, but she was dressed appropriately.

Secretary Yang walked behind Xiao Yanwu, like a competent subordinate.

Can these three people walking on the country road not make people look sideways?

Soon, the secretary and the president joined forces to greet him.

Xiao Yanwu explained his intention bluntly: "I am here to find my long-lost daughter. I heard that a family surnamed Shu in your commune adopted a three-year-old girl sixteen years ago, can you take me to see it?"

The secretary and the president were stunned for a while.

Or the secretary reacted quickly and asked the other party: "What evidence do you have to prove that the baby is your daughter?"

"That's it. ”

Xiao Yanwu calmly took out the identity card that the descendants of the Xiao family have for generations - a peace lock made of pure gold.

"When my daughter was lost, she also had such a gold lock on her body, but the word on it was 'Yi'"

"Oops! This golden lock is exactly the same as the one that Mrs. Shu took off from Yingfang's girl back then!"

"I have also seen that at that time, I and Jianjun's daughter-in-law changed Yingfang's clothes together, and the golden lock hanging around her neck was taken away by Mrs. Shu at that time. Dare is a token of Yingfang's girl's house. “

"The biological parents have been found, and I can't be wrong if I think about it!"

"They look like people from the city, and the conditions should be good. Yingfang girl is here!"

"Yingfang girl has been here for a long time, and she has followed Gangzi with the army, and I heard that the soldier's allowance is two or three times the salary of the worker, and the small life is very good. ”

"Having said that, didn't Mrs. Shu's golden lock be stolen by her family Caiyun......?

"Yo! but no! The girl from Jianqiang's family swept away a lot of things from the old woman, and the golden lock was also in it, and this good thing has been grinding......

The more you talk about it, the more unpleasant it becomes!

The secretary reluctantly dismissed them: "Go, go! It's none of your business, do your own work!"

"I think they all know what happened back then, so let's sit down and talk about it. I won't delay you too much, I'll go back and find someone to help you with the farm work. Xiao Yanwu stopped the secretary from picking up people, and invited several women who had just spoken to the commune to ask about the events of the year.

Secretary Yang obeyed his instructions, took out a pen and paper, and said: "Come on, come on, everyone knows everything, say everything, tell everything you know, and the more detailed the better." Coming back, we will confirm that what everyone said is true, and we will send you some tickets as a token of appreciation. ”

When the women present heard this, who was still hiding, they rushed to report what they knew, whether they had seen it with their own eyes or heard it.

For fear that if I speak late, others will rush to finish what I should say, and I won't be able to get a vote.

Secretary Yang habitually stretched out his hand and pressed it, signaling everyone to be quiet: "Let's do it, from left to right, one by one." Don't worry, everybody, just say what you know without any reservations, and everybody will have a thanksgiving gift. ”

By the time everyone had finished speaking, the recorded events were already very detailed and clear.

"Let's go! Xiao Yanwu finished reading the testimonies of the village women at a glance and took the lead in getting up.

The secretary and president also figured out the identity of the person who came at this time - the Xiao family in Kyoto, I heard that the red family is even worse than the Zhao family in Yuncheng. Where do you dare to go against the grain? What's more, the other party is here to find his own daughter, and there is no reason to stop them from recognizing their relatives.

So, a group of people walked towards Shu's house.
