Change is always ahead of the plan, so that you can't cope with it, Cheng Xiaoyu just returned to Xinglong to enjoy the warmth of home, just got together with his grandfather and fought for two days, went up the mountain to set wild ducks, went to the reservoir to fish, completely forgot everything outside and enjoyed the purest happiness, and the phone call from Pei Pei made him have to interrupt this happiness.

"Grandpa, aren't you going?" Cheng Xiaoyu had already packed his bags, and finally couldn't help but go to his grandfather's house, and opened his mouth to inform him of the news he had gotten, and revealed for the first time that people in the capital already knew about his existence.

"I'm just an old farmer, I grew up working as a farmer at home, I grew up and did something for myself to build a family, and when I got older, I became a farmer again, and the outside world is too far away from me." The old man dried the fishing nets in the yard, without the company of his grandson, no matter how good his health was, he was not forgiving at his age, the fishing nets could no longer be played, and his grandson was gone, and it was time to collect it.

"By the way, help me with a word, you can't hide, I can't hide, no one can hide."

Cheng Xiaoyu didn't say anything more, the utilitarian point said that he hoped that his grandfather would be able to go out of the mountain, so that not only himself, but the whole family would get a certain amount of wealth by virtue of him, but he knew very well that at this time, utilitarianism would be the last thing that grandpa wanted to see. Taking children to dig in the soil is estimated to be resentful of more than half of the people.

"This secret, from my mouth will not leak out, to be a pure person, in fact, it's good, maybe I can't break free from the materialistic society now, and I'm willing to enjoy all kinds of sensory stimulation brought by the material, but after all, there will be a day, I Cheng Xiaoyu will still be a pure and real person, even if I can't return to the countryside, I have to find a pure land in the city."

An old song, on the way, he became Cheng Xiaoyu's partner, called Chang Hong to report for leave, went to the supermarket to buy some food and drink, filled the car with gas, and embarked on a journey to the capital.

"I'm going to go from south to north, and I'm going to go from white to black. I want people to see me, but not know who I am. If you see that I am a little tired, please pour me a bowl of water, and if you are already in love with me, please kiss me on the mouth......"

A song of Cui Jian's "False Monk", with the galloping speed, shaking his head and beating with the rhythm of the music, this time he went to the capital, he didn't know what kind of mentality he should use to face it, he should be sad, and he didn't seem to have that emotion; It's lonely, maybe a little but not much; It seems that the identity of the son-in-law of the Pei family is not up to the ...... As the backbone of the team that once resounded throughout the north and south of the river, the relationship between the old man Pei and the wife of the political commissar is very deep, and the death of old comrades one by one, there are fewer and fewer people still alive, and the departure of each person will affect the hearts of quite a few people. No matter what other people's families do, the Pei family has come up with the highest standard of worship and farewell procession, all the main members of the Pei family have returned to Beijing, and Mr. Pei has already reported to the central government that he will attend the farewell ceremony of the body, but please don't be reported by the news media, the central government has approved.

Pei Pei is also above the night sky at the moment, she will arrive in the capital tomorrow morning, she vaguely remembers when she was a child, the old man and his wife also came to visit her at home, the old man at that time was already a hero, and the old lady was still healthy, more than ten years have passed in a blink of an eye, and she is also gone.

Cheng Xiaoyu went with the psychology of pilgrimage, and saw the sad occasion on TV, thinking that he was going to participate in person, and had the opportunity to meet the leaders up close, and personally feel the deep emotions that were not close to him, and countless generals and veterans who had fought with the chief in the army, or their families, all came to see off the 'red sister' for the last time.

In the afternoon, I got the news and set off, after more than six hours of driving, it was already more than nine o'clock in the evening when I arrived in the capital, Pei Yuejin called him several times along the way, urging him to come to the courtyard first after arriving in Beijing, the old man was a little excited, I hope Cheng Xiaoyu can use 'qigong' to help take a look, if necessary, I hope Cheng Xiaoyu will help to recuperate, the old man is old, and he can't withstand too serious emotional stimulation, once there is an accident, no one is willing to send away the two loyal [***] fighters.

Old Man Pei was in a very low mood, and when he saw Cheng Xiaoyu, he only nodded reluctantly.

"You can't hide, I can't hide, no one can hide. Here are the words my grandfather asked me to bring to you. "How does Cheng Xiaoyu know, Mr. Cheng called Mr. Pei not words, but actions, he didn't come, not because he didn't want to come, but because he didn't want to come and couldn't come, compared to Mr. Pei's grief, Mr. Cheng would rather be called unkind, it's as simple as that, the wisdom of the old people after nearly a century has reached the point where they can convey a certain word without words.

Old Man Pei nodded, stood up, motioned for Cheng Xiaoyu to come and support him, and waved his hand to let the others retreat, with Cheng Xiaoyu's support, he walked around the yard a few times, during which he nagged about the past stories, some stories that are enough to become the most authentic information in textbooks or historical materials, Cheng Xiaoyu listened very carefully, and would ask questions when the old man was slurred.

"Xiao Cheng, don't waste qigong for me, I'm very satisfied when I'm old, I can keep a state, you can't make me look forward to a body that will be eighty years old forever, it's good, let it be."

Cheng Xiaoyu knew that his actions would not be able to hide from the parties, especially a wise person like Old Man Pei, so he didn't nod or shake his head, but said quietly: "I can't let Pei Pei be sad." ”

Old Man Pei smiled and patted Cheng Xiaoyu's hand: "Good boy, good boy." ”

That night, Cheng Xiaoyu accompanied the old man to take some sleeping pills to fall asleep before leaving the small courtyard where the old man lived.

In the main hall, everyone from the Pei family was seated, Pei Huan and Jia Ping lowered their heads slightly when they saw Cheng Xiaoyu, maybe they didn't want to see him or deliberately kept their distance, Cheng Xiaoyu didn't care, nodded at everyone and sat in the corner, now no one in the Pei family will question Cheng Xiaoyu's identity, and even a considerable number of people will put him in a relatively high position.

"Xiao Su, you tell Daewoo about some of tomorrow's processes." In fact, everyone sat together and didn't say anything, no one could sleep, just chatting, just Cheng Xiaoyu came, Pei Yuejin's guard Su Kai explained to him one by one the things he might face tomorrow and some precautions, Cheng Xiaoyu listened very carefully, in fact, it is very simple, a few words to sum it up, it is simpler, look at the person in front of you, what he does, how do you do it.

At eleven o'clock, everyone dispersed to rest, Cheng Xiaoyu lay down in Pei Pei's room for a while, and it was four o'clock in a daze, the mobile phone alarm rang, rubbed his eyes and his head with some pain, sat up and woke up for three minutes, and walked out of the room, Su Kai was already waiting at the door, for a tried and tested professional security personnel, four hours of sleep a day was enough to ensure that their energy was in a full state.

"It seems that it doesn't matter if I can't get up." Cheng Xiaoyu smiled, and walked out of the courtyard with Su Kai, quietly surrounded by silence, in the capital where every inch of land is valuable, there are not many places that are not shrouded in neon lights and are truly clean. opened the trunk of the car, took out a few Red Bull drinks, and just wanted to take a cigarette from his pocket, Su Kai handed him the newspaper package in his hand: "The secretary asked me to give it to you." ”

Special cigarettes, Cheng Xiaoyu smiled, every once in a while, whether it is cigarettes or alcohol, it will be sent to his hands through Su Kai or Sheng Xiaolei's channels, open a box of points, in front of Su Kai, he will not show off his car skills, the fatigue of driving from Meicheng to the capital has not faded, sitting in the co-pilot steadily, turning on the radio to tune to a radio station that plays soft music, looking out the window of the car The lights of the capital are not extinguished, here, I don't seem to be used to staying, maybe because I don't belong here at all, maybe temporary, Maybe for a lifetime.

At about 9 o'clock in the morning, the auditorium of the Babaoshan Revolutionary Cemetery was solemn and solemn, and the mourning was low. Above the main hall of the auditorium, a banner with white letters on a black background hangs, and below the banner is a portrait of an old lady. The body lay in a bush of flowers and cypresses, covered with a bright red party flag.

After a series of party and state leaders silently mourned the body and said goodbye, the younger generation of the Pei family walked into the auditorium under the leadership of Pei Yuejin, slowly came to the old lady's body in mourning and stood in silence, and bowed three times and shook hands with the family members one by one.

Old Man Pei waited on the side with Pei Pei's support, and as Old Man Pei, he naturally entered behind the first echelon with a group of old cadres, and the media did not report on them at their request, while Pei Jianjun entered with the leaders.

The atmosphere outside the auditorium was also always frozen, and a group of old people, supported by their juniors or medical staff, left this sacred place, and they did not dare to stay long, because there were too many familiar names here.

Soon, the Pei family dispersed one by one, each with their own social circle, and in this heavy atmosphere, sometimes they would say some heart-to-heart words. At the foot of Babao Mountain, Cheng Xiaoyu and Pei Pei supported the old man left and right, and behind them was the red flag car driven by the guards.

Walking, the old man walked on the flat road, in good spirits, the sadness has not yet dissipated, the first to park the car beside him is the supreme chief of the moment.

Shake hands, chat, walk a few steps together, one leaves, the other arrives, the old man walked a way, shook hands with ten people and chatted, the central idea is a word, for the country and the people, do your best.
