Yang Rui's words were not without a little melancholy.

Many years of friendship, and there are often people who have contacts during the New Year's holidays. Make a phone call, or write a letter. Such an ordinary friendship, just because a father-in-law and mother-in-law popped up on his side, and then everyone was not as enthusiastic as before.

If it's because of his snobbish expression, such as love, what kind of superiority in front of his friends. It's okay to be estranged from each other by such annoying behavior. But on his side, he still treats each other the same as before, without any change in behavior. But the coldness of the attitude shown by the other party can be directly felt. In this case, of course, she also knew that if it wasn't for her own attitude, then the change in her family's identity seemed to make the other party uncomfortable.

In the past, Shen Jianguo was just a soldier from Beijing when he joined the army. For Commander Peng, or an ordinary company commander at that time, it was a recruit in his company. As for the identity from the capital, it is nothing at all. In the capital of Gyeonggi, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, it is naturally the place where the official hat is pushed. But if there are more officials, it will also depreciate. At most, the Jingguan has a good reputation, and when it comes to actual power, it may not be as good as the director of a small local street office. Therefore, Company Commander Peng would never care if there was a strong political background behind Shen Jianguo. Now that you're under mine, you're just like the rest of the soldiers. At that time, I was in a hurry to pull to the front line of Laoshan, and I had to go to the battlefield in a few days before training, and there was no time to investigate the background of other people's families.

And Comrade Shen Jianguo was quite tough, because the old man in the family forced him to throw himself into the army, and he was holding his breath with the old man, he only wished that he had never had this father, and he would not take the old man's rank to the army and say anything. Of course. Another main reason is that at that time, people were still relatively simple, and most of the officials still had the string of "serving the people" in their consciousness, so basically there would be no arrogance and white-minded "pit father" officials like "my father is Li Gang" in later generations.

Later, when he went to the battlefield, in the tempering of blood and fire, he bravely and ordered the earth to kill a three-in-three out under the artillery fire of the Vietnamese army, and played the reputation of "Sharp Knife Company". Brothers fellowship, heart-to-heart, it doesn't matter who you are. What really matters is the kind of heroic work that can be trusted with one's life and the comrade-in-arms relationship that is better than flesh and blood. Therefore, under Shen Jianguo's unintentional concealment, even if these brothers who came down from the battlefield later formed their own families and brought new members to the iron triangle of brotherhood, his family history has never been exposed in this small circle. Because of this, Jiang Xia's later politeness to Lian Chang's brothers should have come from the real closeness in her heart. And not the snobbish tendency to inflammatory. Yang Rui is also very clear about this.

It's just that, in addition to mutual respect and friendship and affection, there may also be a sense of psychological responsibility for the younger brothers led by her husband and a subtle condescending politeness of the superior to the subordinate, right? Yang Rui was not sure about this. She always thought that the kind of relationship between her and Jiang Xia, although they were not friends who grew up together, were already sisterhoods that had crossed the close ones, maybe she hadn't known them clearly before?

When Yang Rui was alone by her daughter's side, she might not have imagined that she was 2,000 kilometers south from Beijing. There was also a man who couldn't sleep there, discussing something with his husband.

Peng Gengsheng watched his wife refuse to lie down and sleep so late. A man sat on the back of the bed, not knowing what he was thinking. The lamp that was on beside the bed shone on her somewhat pale cheeks, revealing a few wrinkles.

"What are you thinking? Why don't you sleep so late? Commander Peng asked. His old wife has always paid attention to health. In her words, sleep is a tonic that is more beautiful than Ejiao. But today, it's like she's evil, and she doesn't pay attention to beauty anymore. This really made Commander Peng a little confused.

"Got it. You go to sleep first. I can't sleep yet, I want to think about something. Mrs. Peng was reminded by her husband's question and replied. Can't you sleep with the lights on? I turned off the lamp. ”

With that, Mrs. Peng was about to turn off the lights. At this time, Commander Peng got up and stopped his wife's movements.

"Forget it, you better not turn it off. You don't sleep, you sit here. If you don't turn on the lights, it's even more frightening. Commander Peng said half-complaining, half-jokingly, "I see that if you don't sleep, I won't sleep, so it's good to accompany you." As he spoke, he picked up a shirt from the back of the chair beside the bed and draped it over his body. Although it is already a hot day, the habit of the south is to sleep with the windows closed and the air conditioner on. Therefore, under the strong air supply of the air conditioner, it is still easy to catch a cold without wearing a piece of clothing.

"Tell me, what the hell are you thinking? It's rare for this son to come back once, and you're not happy, which is really abnormal. Commander Peng said half-truthfully, "If your son comes back as usual, you won't be able to eat and sleep." Why can't I sleep today? Did that bastard boy tell you something bastard? You tell me, I'm going to beat him up. ”

Hearing that her husband was going to teach her son a lesson, Mrs. Peng immediately objected intuitively: "What are you doing? What did your son do wrong, and you want to clean him up? I can tell you, my son is the meat of my heart, you don't hurt to be a father, but I want to be a treasure in my hand. I won't allow you to bully our son casually. ”

This mother's personality of protecting her son is undoubtedly revealed. In fact, where would Commander Peng not know his wife's temperament. The reason why he deliberately said that he wanted to clean up his son was just to tease his wife. Seeing that his wife suddenly rebounded, forgetting the depressed look just now, Commander Peng said that there is a way like this. He also took advantage of the situation to ask his wife: "Then what about your listless appearance after your son came back?" What did our son tell you? ”

At this time, Mrs. Peng also regained her spirit of being the master of the house because of a few words with her husband. She cheered up and shook her head first: "Although it has something to do with our son, in fact, the root is still in my own body." So you can't blame your son. ”

Peng Weining's return home this time was his first vacation after being transferred to the Beijing Military Region. Although I had returned home once before in order to transfer from the Hong Kong Garrison, I had already transferred out of the original unit, so my leave in the new unit was not double-counted.

Speaking of which, it doesn't mean that he was able to get this vacation because his Lao Tzu and Deputy Commander Shen had a lifelong friendship, and the two were brothers. When Shen Jianguo was working in the Capital Military Region, he was still very careful about the influence, and generally did not make any unreasonable demands. The only time it may have been a little bit of privilege was when Peng Weining was transferred out of the Hong Kong garrison. It is precisely because he has used such a privilege once that he will never be so conspicuous in his temper to favor another officer in such a conspicuous manner.

However, Shen Jianguo doesn't want to do this, it doesn't mean that others won't have such thoughts. This is not the regiment commander and political commissar of the regiment that Peng Weining transferred into, seeing that this newly transferred backbone of his regiment was transferred by the deputy commander of the military region in a special report, and he was also transferred from the Hong Kong garrison, that shows that he has a background. In peacetime, who can become an officer, who is not like a human spirit, has his own little ninety-nine in his heart. The salary and treatment of this unit must be according to the rank, and only this leave evaluation or something can be regarded as the right in the hands of the regiment commander and political commissar. So naturally, in order to show favor to this kid with a background from the beginning, the head of the regiment, who looks like a spirit, directly gave Peng Weining more than ten days of vacation. Of course, this also requires a name, which was also conceived by the head of the regiment and the commissar.

Isn't this Peng Weining transferred from the Hong Kong Garrison? Then some old comrades-in-arms and old leaders also need Peng Weining to walk around. Therefore, the regiment specially gave a holiday to let one of the main officers of the former Hong Kong Garrison go to see the Hong Kong Garrison that had been officially stationed in Hong Kong. said so nominally, but everyone also understood that in fact, Peng Weining was given a period of time to go home once.

This is why Mrs. Peng was able to have the opportunity to get together with her son again after she had already met her son before. Originally, when a mother can see her son, she can't see enough. What's more, the mother of a military family, whose son is away from home all the year round because of tasks and work, cherishes such a rare opportunity to meet even more. But this meeting was in a way that Madame Peng had not expected, which opened up the irritability in her heart.

Like all mothers, when their children grow up, they begin to worry about their children's life's affairs. Naturally, Mrs. Peng will not be an exception. Speaking of which, his son is also 27 years old this year, which is also the age when he began to start a family. Mrs. Peng's own colleagues and friends, as long as they have children, most of them have been in love and married, and even have their own children. Therefore, Mrs. Peng, who saw her son again, soon after seeing her son, raised the question of whether to let her son meet with her friend's daughter or something, to see if there was a chance to develop something.

Speaking of which, this can be regarded as a half-joking and half-serious mention. In the past, when my son was a big boy, when my son was a child, and when he didn't care about this matter at all, he was a mother who also jokingly brought it up. At that time, Peng Weining's reaction was that there was no reaction, and at most he was impatient and responded impatiently, so he went to play with his buddies. (To be continued......)
