October of Xinwei year, Jining, Shandong.

There have been frequent wars in the north in recent days, but there have been few major victories. The Beijing-Hangzhou line garrisoned by the security forces runs from Chengde in the north to Zhoushan in the south, and is heavily fortified for hundreds of miles.

As the middle point of the Beijing-Hangzhou front, Jining's geographical location is very important. Not only do the news come and go through this, but most of the commanders of the garrison here are sent by the commanders, which shows the importance attached to them.

It's just that Jining is a small place, and the conditions are inevitably difficult. In addition, due to the fact that in recent years, the majority of wartime work has only increased, but it has been an out-and-out chore.

It is because Chen Xiancheng has been busy until late at night every day recently.

Now the situation is turbulent, and there are mountain bandits around Jining who enter the city to rob from time to time, and Chen Xiancheng has reached the point of anxiety because of these mountain bandits.

During the war, the blockade of various places, the lack of food, and the life in the towns and villages near Jining were too difficult, and many young people were forced to take refuge in the mountain bandits for their livelihoods.

In the past few days, there has been no reply to the telegram sent to Nanjing, and the first battle of Changsha is imminent. If the war breaks out, Jining will not increase its troops, and I am afraid that they will not have to wait until the war stops, and they will be ready to fight to the death with those mountain bandits who are waiting for the opportunity to move.

After Chen Xiancheng finished reading the document in his hand, he was so anxious that he sighed. Just as he didn't know what to do, the soldiers suddenly hurried in and reported, "Supervisor, there is a letter in Nanjing, a telegram from noon, and the whole city will be under martial law in the afternoon." ”

Chen Xiancheng's face just showed a little joy, and then he thought about it, if it had reached the level of martial law in the whole city, could it be......

Chen Xiancheng couldn't help but be surprised, "The commander is actually coming in person this time?"

The soldier who reported it was also at a loss, "...... It is said that there is something important. ”

What is the need for him to come in person?

But not to mention the imminent situation in Nanjing, even the battle of Changsha is far more important than his small Jining.

What's more, if it was because of this mountain bandit, it would be good to assign generals to lead troops to suppress them, so why should he come in person.

The more Chen Xiancheng thought about it, the more frightened he became, could it be that there was something in this that he didn't know......

In this way, he trembled until the afternoon, and as soon as the soldiers sent to meet him stepped into the door, Chen Xiancheng hurriedly greeted him, "Received the commander?"

The soldier's expression was a little unpredictable, and he nodded, then shook his head for a moment. Chen Xiancheng was about to get angry, but the soldier had already replied, "The commander didn't come here, he went directly to the hotel in Taibai Building......"

Chen Xiancheng was stunned, but he was a little confused.

The soldier continued, "I heard the adjutant beside him say that it seems that the commander's wife went back to Beiping to visit relatives a few days ago, and when she passed through Dezhou, she encountered stragglers. He thought for a moment and guessed, "Supervisor, I think the commander is probably not at ease, so he specially came to see the commander's wife......

Chen Xiancheng's face was much better when he heard this.

It has long been rumored that the commander has always acted calmly and resolutely, but he only loves this lady who has been married for four years. If I came to Jining this time because of that lady, it would not be impossible.

Chen Xiancheng immediately ordered, "In the past two days, there will be additional guards in Taibai Tower, and we must ensure the safety of the commander and his wife." ”

"Yes!" the soldier replied.

Jining is southern, and the climate of the south follows in autumn.

The air was already humid in mid-October, but it was much more comfortable than the dry air in Beiping.

Taibai Building is located in the central district of Jining City, surrounded by bustling and bustling streets, and the nearby Jining Hotel also has a long history, and the interior decoration is a bit quiet and elegant in the old days.

On the third floor of the hotel, Su Qingwan stood in front of the window and quietly looked out the window.

She is wearing a blue cheongsam wrapped in blue today, and it has been cold recently, so she always has a shawl on her body. She was already extremely white, but after being lined with this dress, she looked even more complexion-like and gentle and moving.

The room was silent, Su Qingwan raised her hand and tightened her shawl, I don't know what she thought, and a faint smile pulled up at the corner of her mouth.

After a while, there was a beeping sound behind her, and she turned around and walked to the square table, picked up the boiling teapot in her hand, and was about to lean over to take the new tea over it, when the door was suddenly pushed open.

Su Qingwan turned around, but saw Gu Shaoting appear at the door dressed in dust.

Su Qingwan's eyebrows bent slightly, turned around and put down the teapot, before he could say anything, he had already strode over, frowning and holding her shoulders and looking her up and down. Seeing that she was really fine, he breathed a sigh of relief, "But it scared me to death." ”

His nervous look made Su Qingwan laugh, "With Adjutant Zhou following, you still don't feel at ease." ”

Gu Shaoting looked at her, his brows still not fully stretched.

How could he rest assured, just hearing the news that she was almost in danger, he couldn't wait to fly to her side immediately.

Su Qingwan saw that his brows were furrowed, raised her hand and gently wiped between his eyebrows, and said with a smile, "Isn't this good for me." In the end, he didn't forget to advise, "Don't punish them, huh?"

She knew that he had always been extremely strict with his subordinates.

Gu Shaoting saw her staring straight at him, her eyes were bright, and she didn't blink, as if she had to ask for an answer. He hadn't seen her for a long time, and she seldom coquettishly behaved in front of him, and now this appearance was very useful to him.

So his expression immediately softened, and he only smiled and sighed, "That's it...... "It's good that she's safe."

Su Qingwan also smiled at him, turned around and picked up the small teapot again, "Are you tired?" I'll make tea for you to drink." ”

Gu Shaoting raised the corners of his mouth in a good mood, swept around the room, and saw that there was no one, so he couldn't help asking, "What about Huaiqing?"

"I went with Zhang's mother to see Phoenix Terrace. ”

Su Qingwan raised his hand and carefully pressed the lid of the teapot, cleaned the tea leaves one by one, and said in a casual tone, "Last time in Beiping, Mr. Song mentioned this place, and I didn't want him to remember it." ”

She said and turned her head to look at Gu Shaoting, with a smile between her eyebrows, "Now that I know that we are passing through Shandong, I shouted that I wanted to go when I came, and I thought about it all the way." ”

The afternoon sun was almost cold, shining on people like a layer of hazy and transparent light. The faint smell of tea wafted in the room, and when she spoke quietly to him like this, he felt as if everything around him did not exist.

Su Qingwan made tea and turned to look at him.

He stepped forward and took her hand, pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly, his voice was full of affection, "Why don't you go tomorrow......"

Su Qingwan raised her chin and put her chin on his shoulder and smiled slightly, reached out to wrap her hand around his waist, and promised softly, "Then I'll leave tomorrow." ”

The house is full of tea fragrance and quiet.

Gu Shaoting didn't stay long before he went to work again.

Although he came this time for Su Qingjuan, the telegram he sent to Beiping before was still remembered, and since he came, the matter must be resolved.

Bandits are rampant in Jining Mountain, and it will definitely be a big trouble if they are not suppressed. During the war, there was chaos, and there were bandits and bandits in various places, so this time we not only had to suppress them, but also knocked on the mountains and shook the tigers, and killed chickens and monkeys.

In order to formulate the specific strategic details of the suppression of bandits, Gu Shaoting, Chen Xiancheng, and Jining's big and small officials discussed until late at night.

When he returned to Taibai Building, Su Qingwan had already fallen asleep.

She had always slept lightly, and when she heard the sound of the door opening in a hazy sleep, her consciousness was slightly awake. Just as he was about to turn over, a warm breath hit the back of his neck.

Gu Shaoting kissed the back of her neck to her ear, "Qingwan ......"

Su Qingwan was still a little confused, and his consciousness was dimly aware of his restless hand reaching into his clothes, but he suddenly woke up. She hurriedly pressed his hand through her clothes and whispered, "Huaiqing is still asleep next to me......

Gu Shaoting couldn't help frowning, "How could he sleep here?"

Su Qingwan continued to whisper, "I always sleep with me in Peking these days, and now it has become a habit. ”

Gu Shaoting's brows furrowed even tighter when he heard this, "This kind of habit is unacceptable." ”

When the words fell, before Su Qingwan could react, Gu Shaoting had already gotten up and wrapped the villain sleeping next to Su Qinghuan tightly with the quilt, and then carried it out of the room and handed it to the soldiers guarding the door, and ordered, "Take the young master to sleep in another room." ”

The soldier's hand holding the gun shook, but he didn't dare to disobey the order, so he had to reach out and take the little man who was wrapped up in a ball in fear, "...... Be. ”

Back in the room, Su Qingwan sat up and asked, "Where did you take Huaiqing away?"

The moonlight was excellent tonight, and the curtain by the window was only one layer, which illuminated the room very clearly. She propped her hands on the side of the bed, the collar of her silk pajamas was a little loose, and Gu Shaoting's eyes couldn't help but darken.

He reached out and took off his coat and unbuttoned his shirt with both hands, "He's four years old, and it's time for him to be independent." ”

Su Qingwan was still not at ease, "He had a cold sunset a few days ago, so it's good to ......" said and lifted the quilt and got out of bed, planning to go out to have a look.

Gu Shaoting opened up a hand to stop her, and took her into his arms, his tone was somewhat helpless, "Qingwan, we haven't seen each other for two months." ”

Su Qingwan looked up at him, her eyes were clear, "But Huaiqing ......"

Before he finished speaking, he felt his body light, he had picked her up and put her on the bed, and his condescending gaze when he put her gently on the bed also locked her firmly, "Don't mention him again." ”

Su Qingwan was stunned for a moment, and then she noticed that there was a hint of jealousy in his tone.

She looked up at him, a gentle smile slowly rising into her eyes. Gu Shaoting raised his hand to touch her face, and looked down at her with deep and focused eyes.

The late autumn night was a little cold, but his hands were very warm. Su Qingwan looked at him quietly, and suddenly remembered another incident, "By the way, how did I tell you last time?"

His hand was slowly sliding down from her forehead against her face, and his voice was a little inexplicably hoarse, "What's the matter?"

Su Qingwan looked at him seriously and explained the matter in detail, "The marriage between Chunsheng and Qiu Shi, Mother Zhang said that the sixteenth of next month is a good day, and now that the situation is so chaotic, their affairs can't be delayed any longer......"

In the current situation, it seemed as if she really wanted to discuss the matter with him.

She continued to speak, and the serious expression in his eyes only felt angry and funny.

He couldn't help but bow his head and seal her lips, and while responding vaguely, he scooped the quilt beside him and covered them, and his subordinates were not idle for a moment. Su Qingwan subconsciously hugged his shoulders, and the whole person was deeply embraced by him, and his thoughts gradually became unable to concentrate.

The moonlight is like water, faintly reflected by the side of the bed through the window screen. Gu Shaoting raised his head, Su Qingwan leaned on his arms and closed his eyes slightly, the hair behind him had been rubbed messily by him, and a large piece of black was scattered on his shoulders, and the skin was like jade, white and transparent.

His eyes couldn't help but get darker and darker, and the delicate kiss was pressed against her chin, "Qingwan, I miss you so much......"

Although the night is dark, it is difficult to resist the feelings.

The next day, Gu Chengrui woke up in a completely unfamiliar room.

He rubbed his eyes and sat up, vaguely sensing that something was wrong. When he came to his senses, he turned his head to look around again.

It was empty.

Gu Chengrui frowned, his mother has never had the habit of getting up early, how can she ...... today?

Thinking that Mama Zhang had already pushed the door in, and saw him sitting on the bed in a daze, Mama Zhang immediately walked over quickly, with a smile on her face, "Little Master is awake?"

Gu Chengrui looked up at her, "Is my mother already up?"

Mother Zhang coughed lightly, reached out and picked up the clothes next to the bed for Gu Chengrui to put on, and quietly changed the topic, "But what do you want to eat?" I'll let the kitchen prepare it for you." ”

Gu Chengrui got dressed and got out of bed expressionlessly, "I'm going to find my mother." ”

The corridor on the third floor was very quiet, Gu Chengrui stood still in front of the door, looked up and carefully identified it, and finally determined that he had indeed slept in this room yesterday.

He raised his hand and knocked on the door, but there was no response from inside.

I knocked again, but there was still no response.

Just as he was about to raise his hand and knock for the third time, the door suddenly opened.

Gu Shaoting put on his coat, frowned and looked at the villain standing in front of the door, and said in a light tone, "Your mother is still asleep, don't disturb her." ”

Gu Chengrui raised his head and looked at Gu Shaoting fixedly, pursed his mouth for a while, and asked hesitantly, "Why is my father here?"

Gu Shaoting hugged his arms with a calm expression, "I slept with your mother yesterday." ”

Gu Chengrui's face immediately showed a trace of unhappiness when he heard this, and he was about to continue to question him about yesterday. A gentle but sleepy voice suddenly came from the room, "But Huaiqing is here?"

Gu Chengrui's face was overjoyed, and he raised his foot and was about to go in, but Gu Shaoting had already stepped forward to block the door.

The two did not give in to each other and looked at each other silently for a long time.

In the end, Gu Chengrui pouted angrily, and was just about to open his mouth to call Su Qingwan, Gu Shaoting snapped the door shut, turned around and walked to the bed.

Su Qingwan heard the sound of the door closing, raised his hand and propped up half of his body to look at the door, "...... But Huaiqing?" she didn't sleep well last night, and now she only feels heavy eyelids, and because she is not awake, the arm supporting her body is a little weak, and her body is involuntarily shaking gently, which is very pitiful to look at.

Gu Shaoting sat on the edge of the bed and hugged her and kissed her, after kissing her, she was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes, and coaxed softly, "No one comes, you can sleep again." ”

It was noon when the delay resumed.

It is rare for a family of three to sit together and have a meal.

Jining's dishes are a mixture of heavy ingredients from the north and delicate and small from the south, Xu is Gu Shaoting's special order, the lunch dishes are very complete, not only the famous Texas grilled chicken, Boshan crispy pot, but also prepared soft and salty spring rolls.

Gu Chengrui was eating spring rolls while quietly looking at Gu Shaoting, who was sitting opposite him.

Su Qingwan raised her hand to gently wipe off the puff pastry on the side of his mouth, and told him to concentrate on eating.

Gu Chengrui put down the spring roll in his hand and asked her calmly, "Mother, Huaiqing woke up in the room on the second floor today, I clearly remember that I slept with my mother yesterday ......" Although the words were asked to Su Qingwan, the eyes looked straight at Gu Shaoting.

Su Qingwan was a little speechless for a while.

Gu Shaoting scooped a spoonful of wontons and sent them into Su Qingwan's bowl without changing his face, "You remember wrong." ”

Gu Chengrui retorted expressionlessly, "Huaiqing can remember when he is three years old." ”

Su Qingwan smiled and picked up the wontons in the bowl and brought them to Gu Chengrui's mouth, coaxing gently, "Then Huaiqing can sleep with her mother tonight?"

Gu Chengrui immediately opened his mouth to eat a wonton, looked at Su Qingwan with sparkling eyes, and replied with a smile, "Okay." ”

Gu Shaoting put down his chopsticks with a snap and said coldly, "I'm full." ”

After lunch, Zhou Yong instructed the accompanying soldiers to prepare a car, and in the afternoon Su Qingwan and they were going to leave for Shanghai.

Gu Shaoting was reluctant in the end, he had to rush to Changsha to deal with Jining's affairs, and when the war really started, he didn't know when he would be able to go back to Shanghai to see her.

In the late autumn, Gu Shaoting stood in front of the car and held Su Qingwan's hand tightly, looking at her quietly. She looked at him quietly. Gu Shaoting raised his hand to touch her face, just about to say something.

A small hand stretched out from the car behind him and tugged at Su Qingwan's clothes, "Mother, it's time to go." ”

Gu Shaoting's body stiffened, and his face was already very unsightly.

was about to walk over and pull out Huaiqing's kid.

Su Qingwan suddenly leaned over and hugged him, and whispered in his ear, "I'll wait for you to come back." At the end, he kissed him softly on the cheek.

How could she have taken the initiative like this.

Gu Shaoting stood by the car to see her off with satisfaction, with an uncontrollable smile on his face.

When the car drove away, he suddenly turned his head sideways and asked Zhou Yong, "What has the old man been doing lately?"

Zhou Yong was stunned, he didn't know his intentions, so he only replied truthfully, "The general has been coming recently...... Nothing. ”

Gu Shaoting nodded, turned around and walked back, and instructed casually, "Then send Huaiqing to Nanjing for a period of time later, his old man must also miss his grandson." ”

Zhou Yong lowered his head and held back a smile, "Yes." ”

【Extra Gift Pack】

(The daily life of the Gu family's father and son)

Huaiqing: Does the father want to monopolize the mother?

Gu Shaoting: Your mother is mine.

Huaiqing: Huaiqing was born to her mother in October, so in this way, her mother is closer to Huaiqing.

Gu Shaoting sneered: Your mother and I have known each other for nearly ten years, you can tell me, ten months is the same as ten years, which one is longer?

Huaiqing: ...... Father, this is a strong word.

Gu Shaoting (smile): Who made me your father?

[The author has something to say]

As the saying goes, I'm sorry if I don't drive.

???? But I'm not good at driving, so let's make do with it. (Covering face)

When I was talking to a friend before, I said that I owe Wanwan a child.

Now I've returned it to her.

Introduce our little master, Gu Chengrui, the word Huaiqing, born in December 1927.

Huaiqing, this child, follows his father, and has an awkward temperament.

Because I don't plan to write about Su Jinfeng's extra, this extranet has expanded into a sturdy 5,000-word sweet fan, which is very sincere.

The nickname is a poem I liked when I read Nalan.

What like the moon in the clouds, the clear light is the same for thousands of miles.

I hope this situation is the same for us.

Even if this book is explained at this point, I know that the ending is really hasty. However, this book has been written for too long, and the mood in the early and late stages of writing has also changed a lot, and it will only be more difficult to delay any longer.

So, that's it.

When writing, there is a moment of emotional precipitation, and there will always be regrets of one kind or another.

So, if you have a chance, we'll see you in the next story.
