After the laughter, Minister Xiao further asked Luo Jianxin, "How did you meet Fu Min?" ”

Luo Jianxin shook his head and replied, "I'm really embarrassed to say it, we don't know each other if we don't fight." ”

"What? You've had a fight? ”

"Not really, but it's a little bit." Luo Jianxin recalled: "That day, I came to Hongwei Village to do an investigation, and when I saw that the weather was bad, I hurriedly rode back. I walked out of the village, carefully walked to the middle of the bridge, and saw that the bridge was swaying as if it was about to collapse at any time, only a few broken logs were supported, and there were several large holes exposed in the potholes, and the bottom of the river under the bridge could be seen from the bridge deck, at this time, I saw the dark clouds in the northwest sky rolling forward taking advantage of the wind, the momentum was very rapid, and after a while, it was overwhelming and pressed up, it seemed that this time it had to be rained, I wanted to go back to the village to avoid the wind and rain and then walk, I was hesitating, the wind was blowing stronger and stronger, At this moment, a young man hurried from the opposite side on his bicycle. ”

"It must be my family, right?" Lu Chunji interjected and asked.

"Yes, that's him." Luo Jianxin continued: "Maybe he is also afraid of the rain, he rode very fast, and he came to me in an instant, when I pushed the bicycle and just walked to the bridge, he didn't stop or I didn't dodge quickly, we had to collide." But he couldn't stop the car, and he shouted in a hurry: 'My brake is broken, get out of the way!' 'Where do I have a place to hide on a broken bridge?' Seeing him hit me directly, I said in my heart: bad big thing, if it hits now, we bump into a good way needless to say, I'm afraid they all fell off the bridge, when the time comes, it must be dead or injured, is at an emergency moment, it can be said that I am called in a hurry, said that it was too late and that fast, I put the bicycle forward horizontally, and then pushed hard, just when he just arrived, his front wheel hit my car, behind me blocked hard, and was not knocked down, his car was also bounced back, and even people with the car fell on the bridge. ”

Fu Liguo scolded: "Damn, this kid is just a stunned young man, and he deserves to be fallen." ”

Minister Xiao asked, "Is this fall?" ”

Luo Jianxin smiled and said, "How about not falling." I thought I had broken him when he fell to the ground, so I hurried over to help him, but he jumped up as soon as he jumped, and he stared at me and yelled, 'Why didn't you hide when you got out of the way?' What are you doing here?! I asked him: 'See for yourself where I am hiding on this bridge?' Besides, if I don't block your car, and you get under the bridge at this speed, you will have to fall half to death, so why should I rely on me? 'Hey, guess what, when I say that, his anger is more than half gone. ”

"He never mentioned it when he came home." Fu Liguo also smiled and asked, "What happened later?" ”

Luo Jianxin said: "He said that his car was damaged and asked me to pay for it, but when I saw that the handlebars were crooked and the chain was off, I put the car in order for him and let him try it." Just when we were arguing, the wind and heavy rain fell from the sky, and we couldn't care about anything else, so we had to find a place to shelter from the rain, and then look at the surrounding environment, there was no place to hide. He ran to the bottom of the bridge and shouted at me, 'Come down quickly, you can take shelter from the rain.' I had no choice but to drill down. It's a good place, it can block the wind and the rain, and he pulled out a piece of plastic sheeting from his schoolbag and put it on our heads, so that we can finally avoid the heavy rain. "Where did he get the plastic sheeting?"

"I don't know, anyway, I used it at the time." Luo Jianxin continued: "I asked him which village he was from? He pointed to the other side of the river and said that it was from the Red Guards, and his name was Fu Min. He asked me what I was doing. I answered him as straightforward, and when he heard that I was here for conscription, his eyes were as wide as light bulbs. He asked me, 'See if I can go to the army?' I said, 'As long as the physical, age, political and other indicators are qualified, I am guaranteed to be able to do it.' I asked him how old he was this year. He said he was exactly 18 years old. ”

"Hahaha......" Fu Liguo and the laughter of everyone made Minister Xiao hear the mystery, and he asked: "This kid is lying, right?" ”

"yes, how did I know at the time? I see that this young man is quite clever, athletic, and very good-looking; I talked to him for a while, and listened to his speech and demeanor are also very good, very keen to join the army, very ambitious, at that time I felt that he was very suitable to be a soldier, if he went to the army, he must be a good piece of steel. And I gradually really liked him. ”

Fu Liguo said: "He can stun you." ”

Lu Chunji said unhappily: "What? The two of them are called fate. My family pays the people, it is to attract people. ”

Luo Jianxin smiled and said: "However, he said to me, no matter what I do, I'm afraid it's useless, I'm afraid my father won't let me go." ”

"This kid, I knew he had to say that." Fu Liguo took a risk.

"I said, 'Why didn't your dad let you go?' He said, 'My father is an old man, he has been injured in battle, he can't do anything in the field, and I am the eldest in the family, if I leave, who will help the family?' ’”

Lu Chunji pursed his lips and said, "This kid is talking nonsense, when will he be used to worry about the affairs of the family?" ”

"But I didn't know this at the time, I told and comforted him at the time, don't worry about this matter, and said that the old man is an old comrade, this kind of ideological consciousness will come, I promised him, if he can pass all the tests, I promise to let him go to the army, and I will personally go to the door to do the old man's work. Since then, he has been running to me every day, and over time we have become very acquainted, I am not a few years older than him, young people always have a common language together, and besides, our tempers are also very compatible, so he knows the earliest when to recruit soldiers. Luo Jianxin changed the topic and asked: "Uncle, aunt, I came once during the home visit, do you remember?" ”

Fu Liguo and Lu Chunji thought for a while and nodded, "Well, it seems to be a little impressive." ”

When Minister Xiao heard this, he pointed at Luo Jianxin with a smile and asked, "Will you kid let him go through the back door?" ”

Luo Jianxin hurriedly denied it and said, "No, no, how can there be such a thing?" However, he had a request for me...... Oh, or a request. He and I have to keep his military affairs secret, and we can't let the village and my parents know about it first. I said yes. ”

"He won't let the village know? Where did he get his name from? Minister Xiao asked.

Luo Jianxin said: "He didn't sign up in the village, and I didn't add him to Hongwei Village until he passed the physical examination." ”

"Hahaha, isn't this called going through the back door? Net. ”

"Hey, hey, hey, Minister Xiao, am I going to fulfill my promise, just to keep it secret for him, hehe......"

"Well, finally this kid has fought for the people of his hometown. What about you kid, you didn't look away, and sent a very good soldier to the troops, and I won't criticize you for this, but I won't reward you, hahaha......"

Luo Jianxin said: "I don't want to repay the merits, but I want no fault, I am proud of Fu Min, and I am also happy for sending him to join the army for meritorious service, I am very content and very happy." ”

"Minister Luo, I heard what you just said, Fu Min is really coming back? Do you two communicate a lot? Fu Liguo asked.

Luo Jianxin replied, "That's right. In his letters, Fu Min often mentioned some of his work and training in the army, sometimes talked about his own experience and ideological situation for a period of time, and sometimes asked about the development and changes in his hometown, and so on. ”

Minister Xiao nodded with satisfaction and said, "He treats you as a confidant brother." However, you, the big brother, need to continue to encourage him. ”

"That's for sure."

"I don't think it's too early, we should go back."

"How? Didn't we say we were going to eat at my house? When Fu Liguo heard that Minister Xiao and Minister Luo were leaving, he hurriedly blocked the door of the house and said, "If you ask me to have a treat, I have to treat you, and no one is allowed to leave." Wife, go and prepare a meal, and we'll have two drinks at noon today. Go, by the way, call Ying Zhiming and his family over. Why haven't they shown up all this time? What did you do? Go and call them ......."

"No need to call, I'm here." At this time, Ying Zhiming came in casually, and he said with a smile: "I went to the county hospital for my wife to check it up at noon today, so I didn't catch up with the excitement." ”

"What's wrong again?" Lu Chunji asked with concern: "Sister, why is it uncomfortable?" ”

Yu Juxiang said: "It's nothing, I just feel dizzy all the time." The doctor said that the blood supply to the brain was insufficient, and the blood pressure was low. ”

"That's going to have to be made up."

"It's okay, sister-in-law, let's prepare a meal."

"You cook, let's talk first." Fu Liguo turned his head and said to Zhiming: "Come on, come on, others don't need to be introduced, these two ......"

"Okay, okay, I don't need you to introduce me, I recognize, this Minister Xiao, this is Minister Luo, right?" Ying Zhiming stepped forward to shake hands with the two ministers one by one and said hello, it seemed that they were really familiar with each other.

Fu Liguo asked puzzledly: "Hey, how do you know each other?" ”

Ying Zhiming winked at the two ministers and said with a smile: "Let's ha, don't tell him." ”

Suddenly, it caused a burst of laughter from the big guys.

Seeing that it was about to be noon, Fu Lanhua ran home happily, and she jumped into the door and said: "Dad, mother, my brother......"

"What are you yelling about, this kid?" Mother pointed to the back room with her finger, she suddenly found that there were so many people in the house, she shrank her head back in embarrassment, stuck out her tongue again, turned around lightly and walked to Yu Juxiang and asked, "Auntie, what are so many people doing in the back room?" ”

Yu Juxiang asked, "They are here to deliver good news." Your brother has made great contributions on the front line, do you know? ”

"Of course I do." Fu Lanhua said and asked her mother: "Mother, where is my brother's meritorious service?" ”

Lu Chunji asked, "What are you asking for?" ”

"I'll take a look, I'll hang it up."

"Where are you hanging?"

Fu Lanhua said excitedly and proudly: "I want to hang my brother's meritorious service in my house, and I want to watch him every day." ”
