570 The most beautiful season
At Li Wei's wedding, Zhang Xiaoqiang chatted a lot with several college classmates who had not seen each other for many years, and everyone recalled that era of youth and invincibility......
This is also the only time since graduation when I have seen the most classmates. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info
Everyone agreed this time to hold a class reunion next time and gather all the students who can get together.
When Li Wei snuggled up to Chen Gang with a happy face, there was Xiao Maomao, what a warm family of three, a happy and loving scene.
At the end of the wedding, Li Wei and the classmates present hugged one by one, and everyone's blessings were in plain sight.
A few days later, Li Xiangqian and his lover came to Fang's house, and he came to see this old comrade-in-arms Fang Zhonglei.
Fang Zhonglei has already made preparations at home, and he wants to entertain this friend who has come from afar.
The two are not only comrades-in-arms, but friends of life and death.
Fighting side by side many times, fighting with blood and fire, there is an incomparably deep friendship between them.
In the living room of the Fang family, there is a simulated sand table, which is a compulsory course for Fang Zhonglei every day.
He would stand alone in front of the sand table, imagining that this was a battle between friend and foe, and that he was still the general commanding thousands of troops.
Li Xiangqian walked to the sand table and said, "Brother, you have put the battlefield in your own home, do you still want to fight?" β
His lover Zhao Hua came over and said, "You still said that you are an old man, aren't you like this at home?" β
Li Xiangqian said: "I have been a soldier all my life, and this is my hobby. β
Wang Yaru came over and took Zhao Hua's hand and said, "You don't know, our old man stares at this every day, and this sand table is like his relatives." β
Fang Zhonglei said: "It's not just two hours a day, men who don't have a hobby." β
Zhao Hua said: "This is a hobby, this is an obsession!" β
The four of them laughed together.
A room filled with the fragrance of tea, and Li Xiangqian said, "Old Fang, this is your private collection, right?" β
Wang Yaru said: "No, he said that this tea is specially prepared for you." The last time I went to your house, it was two years ago, and the old party drank all the good tea in your house. β
Time flies so fast, two years ago, Fang Zhonglei and Wang Yaru lived in Harbin City for a period of time, went to Li Xiangqian's house to drink tea every day, and a few old comrades-in-arms together.
At that time, they played gateball together in the compound of the army, went to winter swimming and skating together, like young lads.
I have been in the army for many years and don't have much spare time, so I retired so that I can enjoy life with these old friends.
If it weren't for Mrs. Fang's old age, she would have wanted to go back to Harbin City to live last year.
Fang Zhonglei took out a few thick albums, which were full of old photos from the past.
Li Xiangqian pointed to his appearance in his twenties and said, "I saw that I was also a beautiful man back then. β
Zhao Hua said: "Aren't you also a beautiful man now?" β
There are also some that are taken by war correspondents, and there are not many battlefields that record these heroes who came out of the artillery fire.
Fang Zhonglei pointed to some of his comrades-in-arms who had already died, and said: "When I dream now, I still dream of them. Big-eyed Liu, fast-mouthed Li ...... In the dream, their appearance is very clear......"
As he spoke, he was a little emotionally excited. He picked up his tea and took a few sips.
Li Xiangqian knew that that battle was the deepest pain in the hearts of the two.
That year, Fang Zhonglei and Li Xiangqian were just company commanders, young men with strong blood.
On the battlefield in a foreign land, they were ambushed by the enemy and almost completely annihilated.
An army of several thousand people, only a dozen people survived, wounded, disabled, and terrifying to think about.
The shells fell, and the recruits' ears were deafened.
Of the few who participated in the war together, only Fang Zhonglei and Li Xiangqian survived.
In a pile of dead people, dead people with their own people and enemies, they were finally saved by their own people.
It's really a life of nine deaths.
When Li Xiangqian and Fang Zhonglei knew that they were still alive, the two of them smiled and said, "If we don't die in a big disaster, we will have a blessing." We will witness the future of New China and will live a better life. In the face of future generations, we will proudly say that this is the world that we have fought down. β
Looking at the young faces in the photos, these faces have been frozen forever in that era.
Li Xiangqian was a little excited, and his hand stroking the photo trembled a little.
Zhao Hua said: "Lao Li, it's all in the past, it's all good now, don't think about it so much, okay?" β
Fang Zhonglei's heart, why not?
Seventy-year-old people, nostalgic for the old days, the passion in their hearts has never been extinguished.
Zhang Xiaoqiang and the nanny had already cooked in the kitchen, most of which were some Hacheng flavors, and some Jiangnan side dishes.
Wang Yaru came over to greet Li Xiangqian and his wife, and said, "Lao Li, let's go, let's have a meal together." β
Fang Zhonglei, Li Xiangqian, and Zhao Hua came to the table together, looked at the table and said: "It's really a combination of north and south, haha, you are usually not allowed to eat meat or drink, but you must have a good drink today." β
Li Xiangqian said: "My family is also controlled now, and even my little grandson knows that this can't be eaten, and that can't be eaten." β
Zhao Hua pouted and said, "I'm embarrassed to say, I went out to eat sauerkraut pork knuckle last time, and when I came back, I was dizzy, which scared me half to death, this old man, it's true." β
Fang Zhonglei said: "No way, the years are unforgiving." You said that when we were young, we didn't dare to eat anything, and everything we saw was fragrant. Haven't you eaten rats and snakes too, it's quite delicious. β
Wang Yaru said: "Listen to it, here it is again, I just talked about rat meat last time, and I said it again this time." Now that it's time to eat, don't talk about that. You are allowed to drink alcohol, but drink less.
The dishes on this table were presentable, and Zhao Hua began to praise Zhang Xiaoqiang's craftsmanship: "Yaru, your daughter-in-law is really good, Xiaowei also went when she got married, and I learned that she was still my daughter's college classmate." No wonder your family Aobai didn't look down on our Xiaowei, it turned out that there was such a good daughter-in-law. β
Zhang Xiaoqiang said: "Aunt Zhao, don't praise me. Isn't your family Weiwei also happy now? Chen Gang has been chasing her since he was in college, and now he has a lover who has finally become a family. β
Wang Yaru said: "Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, now we just need to take good care of ourselves, don't make trouble for our son." β
Zhang Xiaoqiang made two light vegetarian dishes and white porridge for her grandmother, and she brought them to her grandmother's study.
Grandma doesn't eat much of these things now, and only eats light vegetables and porridge a day.
As she gets older, she is very strict with her diet.
"Grandma, let's eat." Zhang Xiaoqiang said to her grandmother who was reading.
Mrs. Fang took off her glasses, wiped her hands with the towel handed by Zhang Xiaoqiang, looked at the fried spinach, she tasted it and said, "Yes, that's what you want." β
Now my grandmother can't finish so many meals, she drank half a bowl of white porridge and half a plate of spinach, and said that she was very full.
and instructed Zhang Xiaoqiang to put the rest of the food in the refrigerator, not to throw it away, and to warm it up for her in the afternoon.
Zhang Xiaoqiang asked her grandmother if she wanted to eat some fruit or something, and her grandmother waved her hand and said, "I'm old, and I seem to have a smaller appetite." β
She sat there reading "April Days on Earth" for her grandmother, which was also her grandmother's favorite.
I say you are the April day of the earth;
The sound of laughter lit up the winds on all sides; Brisk
Dancing and changing in the glory of spring.
You are the clouds in the early days of April,
The dusk blows the soft of the wind, the stars
Flashing unintentionally; Drizzle in front of the flowers.
That light, that graceful, you are; Xianyan
You wear the crown of flowers; You are
naΓ―ve, solemn; You are the full moon of the night.
After the snow melts, the goose yellow, you like; fresh
The first bud of green, you are; Tenderness, joy
The water floats with the white lotus you are looking forward to in your dreams.
You are the blossom of a tree, a swallow
Whispering between the beams, - you are love, you are warm,
It's a poem; You are the April day on earth!
Grandma was fascinated by this, and suddenly it seemed that she was really immersed in April.
Grandma said, "If it's always April, there's no cold and no heat, just like people never get young, don't grow old." β
Zhang Xiaoqiang knew that her grandmother was also very afraid of her getting old, and she knew the news that Zhang Zhihe was seriously ill recently, and she was also infinitely sad.
She wanted to go and see, but at such an age, she couldn't go so far.
This ninth master is the most important person in grandma's life.
Zhang Xiaoqiang felt helpless in her heart, even though she had a powerful plane, but this plane could not crack the life, old age and death of human beings, the normal laws of nature, no one could interfere with this.
Looking at grandma's silver thread, this is also the one that only grew this year.
I remember that a few years ago, my grandmother still had natural black hair.
"Xiaoqiang, you know what? In my heart, you are no ordinary woman. I know that in our Fang family, since Aobai took over all these years, if there was no help from you behind the scenes, the Fang family would definitely not be where it is today. I know that you are wholeheartedly thinking about our family, and I thank you. Mrs. Fang said what was in her heart, she always felt that Zhang Xiaoqiang had an unsolved mystery. There are a lot of things that she can handle very well.
She herself has lived for more than ninety years, what kind of people she has not seen, what kind of things she has not experienced. This granddaughter-in-law of mine is young, she has superhuman skills, and she is definitely not an ordinary person.
However, after all these years of living together, she found that Zhang Xiaoqiang was indeed thinking about the Fang family wholeheartedly.
Especially in dealing with the issue of the three daughters of the Fang family, he knew that his three daughters framed her and Aobai, but he did not break it down, nor did he retaliate, and finally accommodated them very generously.
This is also what she knew later, it turned out that Mrs. Fang thought that Zhang Xiaoqiang and Fang Aobai were afraid that the property of the Fang family would fall into the hands of others, so they forced Fang Ziqin away and reduced the power of Fang Zilin and Fang Zisu in Fang's family.
Old Madam Fang was a shrewd person, and when she knew the truth of the matter, she was particularly shocked at that time. She didn't tell anyone, just silently observed Zhang Xiaoqiang's way of dealing with it.
I admired Zhang Xiaoqiang's approach from the bottom of my heart.
All her worries were unnecessary.
Zhang Xiaoqiang is also running the business in the antique shop well, especially Jadeite, who is now a celebrity in Yanjing.
Old Mrs. Fang took Zhang Xiaoqiang's hand and said, "Xiaoqiang, live a good life, your achievements in the future will be extraordinary." β
Zhang Xiaoqiang said: "Thank you grandma for giving me so many opportunities. β
Outside, Fang Zhonglei and Li Xiangqian, Wang Yaru and Zhao Hua, the four of them chatted about the past and recalled the past......
Li Xiangqian said: "When will we go back to the army together, I haven't touched a gun for a long time." β
Fang Zhonglei thought for a while and said: "There is a place, I'll take you there, let's have a good PK, but it's just the two of us, there are no soldiers." β
Li Xiangqian took out a phone book from his pocket, he went through the small notebook from the beginning, and said, "No soldiers? Says who. Several of my old subordinates are here, and as soon as I gather them, won't they come? β
Fang Zhonglei said: "Last time, I went to a place where there was a simulated battlefield, and there were all kinds of jungle warfare and mountain warfare, and you could choose and combine them freely. β
Li Xiangqian was so excited when he heard that he couldn't do it, he said, "Really? And such a nice place, how did I not know about it? You say, when to go, I'll come to find someone. β
As soon as Fang Zhonglei heard it, he said: "Tomorrow at ten o'clock, gather by the pool in Houshan Park." β
Li Xiangqian walked to the sofa and called the phone on the phone book for a long time, and he said happily: "Okay, I will be here on time tomorrow." β
Fang Zhonglei said: "Okay, show your skills tomorrow." That day, I didn't meet any opponents, it was all a group of young dolls, and it didn't take a few moments for them to be annihilated by me. β
Li Xiangqian said: "Wait and see tomorrow." β
Wang Yaru said: "I'm going crazy again tomorrow, this old man, why is this." Last time, he pulled a few high school students from other people, and paid for them to let the dolls play with him. β
Zhao Hua said: "Really? The old party is so cute. Tomorrow, let Lao Li accompany him to go crazy, and we will also go and do a good job in logistics support. β
A few people burst out laughing.
Zhang Xiaoqiang knew that her father-in-law was also suffocated, and he entertained himself alone in front of the sand table every day.
Sometimes, I pull Jiaxin and play with him at home.
The last time I hit the water gun, I got a lot of things wet in the house.
The old and the young have become the old children.
The next day, Fang Zhonglei got up at half past six to run and exercise as usual, and then came back for breakfast.
He opened his closet and put on his camouflage.
Wang Yaru said: "Aren't there clothes there? Don't wear this. β
Fang Zhonglei said: "The clothes there are all imitations, how can I have this fit, I want to wear more handsome today, better than them." β
Wang Yaru smiled, she said: "Handsome, you have always been very handsome, you must be better than them." β
Fang Aobai drove the car and pulled his parents to Houshan Park, who knows, he saw a group of old men wearing camouflage from a distance.
Unexpectedly, Li Xiangqian actually gathered so many people.
He and Wang Ya got out of the car, and Fang Aobai said, "Dad, Mom, be careful, don't be too tired." β
Li Xiangqian beckoned from afar: "Old Fang, come here." β
Fang Zhonglei walked over quickly, and Wang Yaru followed behind. (To be continued.) )
