Chapter 67: Who's Up

"What's the matter, Lao Tzu looks at your kid and doesn't seem to be willing to come back?" Xue exited to the problematic side, and Xue Anyuan stalked his neck.

Xue Xiang said a few times and said with a smile: "Look where you said, how could I not welcome it, even if I don't welcome you, Xiaowan is also welcome, especially Xiao Shi, I have long said that if the uncle comes back, he will pull his beard a few times, I see that your old beard is unshaven, hurry up or shave it." ”

At the mention of Sanxiao, Xue Anyuan's old face immediately couldn't hold back, and warmth surfaced, "Okay, I won't go around in circles with you, I will return to Beijing this time to report on my work, and the Central Military Commission has ordered me to take over as the commander of the Lingnan Military Region." Speaking of the most reluctant, Xue Anyuan's voice was raised, revealing a full of pride, obviously this promotion made this battlefield veteran a little embarrassed.

After Xue Anyuan finished speaking, Xue Xiang's handsome face did not show surprise, obviously he had already been prepared.

said that Xue Xiang was really not surprised, but a little disappointed. In fact, Xue Anyuan returned home at this time, and he had suspicions before, but when he entered the door, he saw Xue Anyuan lying comfortably on the rocking chair, and he had the answer in his heart - he returned to Beijing to report on his work. Since it is a work report, there are only two possibilities, one is to report and summarize the campaign of the southern expedition, and the other is to report and summarize the southern campaign, plus arrange new duties.

If it is the second case, a new position is arranged, then this position is worth looking forward to. After all, Xue Anyuan has made outstanding contributions this time, and he was replaced, making room for others, and the high-level leaders naturally have to be compensated, and promotion is almost certain, but it is worth considering where to transfer.

The reason why Xue Xiang was lost. Or is it because Xue Anyuan's new position does not meet the expectations in his heart. He originally thought that Xue Anyuan would be able to be promoted directly to the chief of the four major departments of the Military Commission with his first contribution to the south of the country, and in another two years, he would be able to hang up the sign of a member of the J Committee.

"What, you're still not satisfied?" Xue Xiang didn't speak, and Xue Anyuan knew what he was thinking. Then he asked.

Xue Xiang didn't answer and asked: "Who took your deputy command?" ”

Xue Anyuan waved his hand: "It's not for you to worry about, okay, there's nothing to be sorry about." What good things can be taken by one person? I have been content in my life, I am old, and I have fought a national war. Commanding hundreds of thousands of people, compared with those old guys who are lying at home, it's time to secretly recite Amitabha. ”

Xue Anyuan's words, Xue Xiang was immediately relieved, thinking about it, he is a little childish, and it may not be a good thing to climb to the sky in one step, to build a tower, it is important to lay a solid foundation.

An old man and a young man, an uncle and nephew, have not seen each other for a long time, and they are also military topics. It was the preference of the two, and as soon as they chatted, they couldn't stop the car until the sun went down and the twilight gradually sank. Xue Xiang realized that it was late, and it was time to prepare dinner. Today, when Xue Anyuan first arrived home, Xue Xiang naturally wanted to show off his spirit and clean up the banquet. Fortunately, the family is gluttonous, and all kinds of ingredients are available. It wasn't until six o'clock, and the last plate of braised pork ribs was freshly cooked.

A small hollow log table, the hollow place is set up with an iron pot, the coal stove is supported under the pot, the fire is booming, the small pheasant stewed mushrooms in the pot are clattering, the iron pot is surrounded by six dishes and one soup, the meat and vegetables are matched, the color is bright, obviously a sumptuous dinner has been prepared.

Because the new home is not close to the school where the third elementary school is located, even if it takes nearly 40 minutes by car, it is at this time, although it is more than half an hour after the school time, the third elementary school has not yet arrived home. If you don't return for three hours, you will naturally have to postpone dinner.

Xue Xiang raised his hand to look at the time, estimating that it would take a while for the three children to return home, and then seeing that the pot was already stewed fragrantly, he bent down to cover the damper, who knew that as soon as the damper was covered, there was a familiar cheer outside the kitchen, looking through the window, but seeing the little guy flying towards Xue Anyuan, Xue Anyuan also hurried towards the little guy, and a white shadow also quickly chased towards the little guy, and before long, the three shadows collided together. …,

As a result, the little guy got on Xue Anyuan's shoulder, and the little white tiger was taken into the arms of the little guy!

The family sat down in the kitchen, and Xue Xiang took out the liquor and drinks again, and poured them into the wine glasses on the table one by one. Sanxiao saw Xue Xiang's solemn face, even the most noisy little guy sat in a proper manner, as if he was waiting for Xue Anyuan to speak, clinker, Xue Anyuan filled the three small bowls with vegetables one by one, and beckoned the three little ones to eat quickly, but there was no image of a parent who had returned home after a long absence.

The family here was eating lively, the phone in the hall rang, Xue Xiang got up, turned back to the hall, and when he answered, it was Guan Chunlei's cannon sound, and before he could say a few words, Guan Cannon pointed out the theme, saying that it was to let Xue An go to the plum garden, and at the end, he added a sentence, saying that the wheat in the plum garden was about to yellow, so that Xue Xiang would not miss the agricultural time, remember to bring his own sickle, and bluffed Xue Xiang without saying a word, and directly made the phone.

When the old chief was called, he naturally couldn't eat a reunion dinner. After Xue An left, the three snacks had a few chopsticks, then lost the bowl and went out to cook. Xiaowan went back to the room to review his homework, Xiaoyi practiced football dribbling in the courtyard, and the little guy hugged the little white tiger to watch TV in the hall.

Xue Xiang ate Haisai alone by the stove for a while, but there were too many dishes to prepare, and it was difficult for him to eliminate them all by himself, so he mixed the leftovers into the pot together, made a big pot of stew, and bought back the steamed buns tomorrow, which was a good match.

After cleaning up the kitchen, he poured two bottles of boiling water, replaced the coal stove with new coal, and then went back to the hall. In the hall, I watched TV with the little guy for a while, and when I saw that it was nearly nine o'clock in the watch, I took a basin of water, poured boiling water, and beckoned the three little ones to wash.

After the three small washes returned to the room, Xue Xiang poured the waste water, smoked alone in the courtyard, a cigarette was not exhausted, there was a sound at the door, and when he looked up, he saw that it was his uncle, and there were two more guards behind him who didn't know him, and the tunic that helped him exchange Hong Kong dollars in Lingnan last time.

The courtyard is vast, and the wattage of the incandescent lamp is very large, and it is very bright, under the light of the light, Xue Anyuan's face is flushed, and his steps are vain, obviously because he has drunk too much. But Xue Xiang remembered that Xue Anyuan didn't take a few sips of wine at home, so he expected to go to the plum garden again.

As soon as he thought of this, Xue Xiang took a few steps and stepped forward to help Xue Anyuan: "Uncle, how much have you drunk, I remember that you are also a pound smaller, shouldn't the old chief share a bar with you?" ”

"You kid, you know how old the old chief is, can you still fight with me? Go and go, get some tea and soup, and pour a few cups. Xue Anyuan's voice was loud and his words were clear, showing that he was sober and not drunk.

Xue Xiang hurriedly returned to the hall, and before long, he took out a long-spouted purple clay pot and handed it to Xue Anyuan, and the Pu'er tea brewed in the pot was a holy product. Xue Anyuan poured a few sips into the teapot, smoked a cigarette, recovered a lot, stretched out his hand to pat away the two soldiers on both sides, and said to the tunics: "Rusheng, you take Xiao Wang and Xiao Ma to rest, don't fight guerrilla with Lao Tzu like in the afternoon." ”

It turned out that after Xue Anyuan arrived home in the afternoon, he arranged for the three accompanying guards and confidential personnel to go into the guest house to rest, and the three of them did not go, but hid around the house, this Xue Anyuan went out to the plum garden, and the three of them also drove away from the car, until Xue Anyuan came out of the plum garden, and the three of them saw that the chief seemed to have drunk too much, so they appeared to meet them. Because of this, Xue Anyuan only said that he was fighting guerrillas.

Mao pretended to say: "Chief, I'll stay, there is no shortage of people around you, let Xiao Wang and Xiao Ma rest." ”

The voice of the tunic fell, the two soldiers quit, and they had to stay, saying that they didn't have to worry about the chief's accommodation, they could sleep on the tree and in the house, and they could protect the chief by the way. Xue Anyuan's guards were all carefully selected by Gu Changdao, and they were the elite of the elite of the special operations team, and such a trivial matter as resting was naturally not in their eyes.

How do you know that the refusal of the three of them provoked Xue Anyuan, "Go and go, all the damn guts are hairy?" Execute the command! ”…,

Syllable!

The three of them stood upright together and went out, but as for whether they would go back to the guest house to sleep or continue to hide in the surroundings, there was no way to know.

When Xue Anyuan reprimanded the three of them, Xue Xiang didn't interject on the side, not that he didn't want the three of them to stay, but that there was really no room at home. To say that this mansion is very good, big and huge, but the setting of the room is extremely stingy, so there are four rooms in the main hall. Of course, this kind of layout is very suitable for a person like Xue Xiang who attaches great importance to family affection and family warmth, but when there are guests coming from afar, it seems cramped.

After the three of them went in tunics, the two uncles and nephews walked around the courtyard again.

It was the day and a half moon, and at that time, there was a bright moon in the sky, full of flaws, clear and bright, Xue Xiang walked a few steps, came to a dark wall, and turned off the street lights in the atrium. Suddenly, the moonlight replaced the light, the clear light was cold, pouring out the courtyard, under the quiet moon, the garden was full of brilliant flowers and fragrant grass in the daytime, and in an instant, it was glamorous, cold and graceful.

The moon is quiet, and the night is quiet.

Xue Anyuan was in front, Xue Xiang followed, swaying in the courtyard step by step, I don't know how long it took for Xue Anyuan to break the silence: "Third child, who do you say will go up?" ”

Xue Anyuan was a brainless sentence, and Xue Xiang really knew where he was pointing. In fact, Xue Anyuan returned home drunk and did not enter the hall, but walked in the courtyard, Xue Xiang knew that he had encountered something in the plum garden, so when he followed Xue Anyuan's footsteps, he was also constantly thinking about it and came up with many possibilities.

At this time, Xue Anyuan's question did not escape the scope of his thoughts, so he immediately picked it up: "It doesn't matter who goes up, the important thing is that the country is stable, the war is won, the direction of development is determined, and of course, the most important thing is that the old chief is still in good health." ”

"Hehe, you kid, you really have a seven-clever heart, but this sentence is really good, stable and good, as long as it is stable, with us hard-working and simple people, how can the development of the republic lose to others?"

Seeing Xue Anyuan's rare emotion, suddenly, Xue Xiang came out of nowhere: "Did you meet Chief Zhenhua at the dinner table?" ”

Recruiting land, Xue Anyuan stopped smiling, and with a bang, he rewarded Xue Xiang with a big chestnut. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
