Chapter 44: Death of Habit

The dawn of New York is coming, Bai Qiulu has been soaking in the bathtub of the hotel room for a long time, and Bai Qiulu is waiting for the dawn.

Walking out of the bathtub, Bai Qiulu saw her body in the mirror, still so plump, if it weren't for someone she knew, she wouldn't believe that this woman already had a daughter taller than her, and she wouldn't believe that this woman was already a major general. Bai Qiulu walked out of the bathroom on tiptoe and changed into a black robe, which was bought for her when Wangxi was a military attache in Iraq.

Bai Qiulu basically doesn't buy anything to wear by herself, and every piece of her clothes has a story of coveting Xi and loving her.

At that time, most of Wangxi's work in the Executive Board was in the field, and he was always running around the world. Everywhere he went, he would bring a small gift to Bai Qiulu. For example, Dior perfumes, Milan fashion, Parisian high heels, Swiss army knives, etc., etc., after a long time, Bai Qiulu has become dependent, and she will not even buy things by herself. Wangxi is a very frugal person, for example, when eating, he will not waste any food, even if there is a grain of rice left in the bowl, he will also pick it up in his mouth. But when he bought something for Bai Qiulu, he was simply a shopping maniac. Every time he returns home, he will not have any extra money left on his body except for coins. This made Bai Qiulu often very angry, saying: Isn't it okay to stay a little more? Every time, if something happens and there is no money in your pocket, what a shameful thing it is.

Whenever this happens, Wangxi always quibbles: That won't happen, is there really such a thing, is there a beggar with a good temperament like me in the world? Spring flowers are seen once less than once, and so is your face, you have seen enough when you are at your most beautiful, and you will not regret it in the future.

No matter how angry Bai Qiulu is, she will be gentle at this time, hugging Wangxi and saying: I know you love me, but you spend all your money every time you come back, this is not good, a man always has to put some money on him, but what about you? You won't go home until you run out of money.

In fact, Bai Qiulu also knew that this was the anxiety of coveting the west, and every time she returned home, she stayed at home, what did she do? It's looking at each other. It's like you want to see enough at once, and you don't care about what happens tomorrow. Because, maybe the next time we look at each other, it will already be the cold cemetery behind Xiangshan.

Therefore, when they get together, they cherish each other's moments together.

After Bai Qiulu put on the black Iraqi robe, except for her deep eyes, her whole body was hidden in black. She sprinkled a little bit of Dior perfume on herself, and the room smelled of violet. All the objects in the hands are full of the smell of coveting the West. Bai Qiulu even wanted to throw away all these things, but it was these things that gave her endless warmth. Even if he coveted West as the enemy of the whole world, he was the one she loved the most. Of course, favorites don't mean she can't shoot bullets into his heart. Because, love and faith are two different things. Love is just one of the beliefs of faith.

Bai Qiulu began to get angry while putting on makeup and dressing herself, and once Bai Qiulu noticed that the smell and perfume of another woman emanated from Wangxi's body. Bai Qiulu really couldn't think of what the motive for coveting the Western Apostasy was, the motive? Motivation? Motivation? Bai Qiulu thought about this question countless times. Could it be that Wangxi has betrayed love a long time ago? Or do you betray your faith when you betray love? She didn't know about the rumors that she was a military attache in Iraq and an American woman, she just pretended not to know. Bai Qiulu has always been confident in her charm, but once she thinks of human nature, she is shaken again, human beings are animals after all, especially when an animal like a man thinks about problems with his body if he thinks about problems instead of thinking about problems, maybe it is when a man falls.

Therefore, today Bai Qiulu chose this black robe, on the one hand, to better hide herself, and on the other hand, it is more like going to a funeral. Whatever the reason, it couldn't stop her from shooting bullets into Wangxi's body. From that point of view, this is the best way to finish.

Bai Qiulu remembered that the operation to protect the envoy was over and returned to Beijing.

Bai Qiulu returned to the military compound in Tangshan, Beijing, pushed open the door and said, "Mom, I'm back." When I entered the door, I saw my mother Nian Begonia, my brother Bai Qiuzhi, my sister Bai Qiushui, and my nephews and nieces and a bunch of people were making dumplings. If you don't come, don't you come, you come and you're a bunch, you've negotiated it, right?

Bai Qiulu said: Mom, your daughter Qiulu crossed the Pacific Ocean to see you, why, isn't it welcome?

Nian Haitang wiped his hands and said: Why are you not welcome? Mom thinks you want to be old, you can't go anywhere, you can't go to the Pacific Ocean, you can't go to let Mom make a dream, so what's so good about capitalism, don't you say autumn to autumn water?

Brother Bai Qiuzhi and sister Bai Qiushui said: That's it.

Brother Bai Qiuzhi said: You see that you are dressed too capitalist, and you are completely out of tune with the proletariat, so quickly replace it, our Bai family is a revolutionary family.

Sister Bai Qiushui said: My sister is becoming more and more like Margelyn Monroe.

The nephews and nieces shouted around Bai Qiulu and said, "Why didn't you bring us some America back, and you dared to come back empty-handed?"

Nian Haitang said to his grandson: How do you talk to your elders, I think the people of the Bai family are becoming more and more unruly, you are going to turn the sky upside down?

The niece and nephew quickly covered their mouths.

Bai Qiulu said: What about my father?

Nian Haitang said: Didn't you say prepare for war? Not returning home all day. This American is a troublemaker, and after tossing in Korea, he went to Vietnam, and I heard that your father's military region is going to be transferred to Yunnan.

Bai Qiulu said: Maybe it's really going to be a third world war, mother, brother, sister, you eat, I'm very sleepy, I want to sleep. After saying that, he collapsed on the sofa in the living room, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Nian Haitang motioned for everyone to speak quietly and said: What is this for, what do you have to be trapped to be like this? Nian Haitang was so distressed that she wished she could replace this child, so she took a military blanket and covered Bai Qiulu with nagging.

The Bai family is a purely military family.

Bai Qiulu's father Bai Zhan is the commander of the 33rd Army of the Northern Military Region, and her mother Nian Haitang graduated from Yenching University. After joining the army, his elder brother Bai Qiuzhi went to Tibet, Xinjiang and Yunnan, starting as a soldier and now working in the Political Department. After graduating from the Army Command College, her sister Bai Qiushui was selected to study in the Soviet Union, and after returning from studying in the Soviet Union, she worked in the Second Bureau of the General Staff. When the family gets together, they never talk about work or ask about each other's work. They live under one roof, but they belong to a completely different world.

After dinner, the elder brothers and sisters left with their children, and only Nian Haitang and Bai Qiulu were left in the Bai family. Winter nights in Beijing are extremely cold. Nian Haitang looked at her daughter with regret, and felt that it was really uncontrollable. The little daughter who fell asleep on the sofa was like the self who betrayed her family and went to Yan'an desperately in her early years. The door was pushed open at this time, and her man Baizhan walked in, and Nian Haitang looked at her man in confusion, the elderly general, and said: Why are you back?

Bai Zhan said: Can't I come back to see my daughter?

Nian Haitang said: If it weren't for our daughter, you would definitely not come back.

Baizhan said: You even eat your daughter's vinegar?

Nian Haitang said: Isn't it? If it weren't for your daughter, would you come back to see me?

Bai Zhan whispered: Today you have to be proud of your little padded jacket, you can't think of what she did before going home?

Nian Haitang said: I don't care what she did, I only care about her being my daughter.

Bai Zhan lowered his voice in Nian Haitang's ear and said: Just by this matter, she can become a hero of our country.

Nian Haitang said: So make a mystery, what is such an exaggeration?

Bai Zhan said: The other person who went on the mission with Qiu Lu is still lying in the hospital.

Nian Haitang said: I said Lao Bai, you know, who dares to guarantee that he is so lucky every time?

Bai Zhan said: This is not like what you said, for the sake of the country, why can't our daughter die?

Nian Haitang said: I don't mean that, change a position, and also work for the country.

Bai Zhan said: Don't you know your adopted daughter's character? Like when I was in Yan'an, I didn't want you to work in Tek, but did you agree with my idea? Didn't you fight for your life that time? Therefore, we still respect the child's own choice.

Nian Haitang sighed again and said: I can't control anyone now.

After returning to China, Wangxi still lived in the Zero Military Hospital.

Bai Qiulu went to the Zero Military Region Hospital to visit the West of the Zero Military Region.

Bai Qiulu's first words when she saw Wangxi were: Doesn't it look like you're going to die?

He said, "If there is such a patient who sees the patient, I will throw all these fruits out."

Bai Qiulu said: Don't don't, now that the country is in difficulty, I have spent a lot of money on these fruits, and I am reluctant to eat them myself. Take care of your illness, and I still hope that you will continue to block bullets for me.

Looking at the West said: You are like a person who wants others to block bullets, and your skills are completely heroes with unlearned knowledge.

Bai Qiulu said modestly: There, there, the little woman is just a small skill of carving insects.

Looking at the West said: Carving insect skills? Whoever marries your "carving insect skills" will really have to be put to the test.

Bai Qiulu said: Do you mean to curse the little girl for not being able to get married?

He said, "Hey, I didn't mean that, I meant, hey, that's not what I meant anyway."

Bai Qiulu said: It's not that, it's not that, so what does it mean?

Qi Wangxi said: You are more powerful than I imagined, and our opponents are all devils.

Bai Qiulu said: You mean to say that I am the devil of the devil?

He said, "Why do you always distort my words?"

Bai Qiulu said: No, didn't I follow your words? Okay, I'm not going to tease you, let's be serious, how are you recovering.

Wangxi said: Much better.

Bai Qiulu said: Seriously, in the "zero" unit, your legend is to block bullets, you always don't take care of your body like this, right? Can you come up with something new? Every time it was like a struggle. You say, "If someone really likes you, how much worry do you make others?"

Looking at the West said: You won't like me, will you?

Bai Qiulu said firmly: No, I won't like a person who can only block bullets. Because this kind of liking will not last long, the body can't resist bullets in the end, and it's not superhuman, besides, you won't have such good luck every time you won't be killed every time, and surviving is just a ten-thousandth of a good mood on the day of death, otherwise your result will be lying in the cemetery behind Xiangshan.

Lookout West said: It seems that my desire to block bullets with you can only be disappointed.

Bai Qiulu looked at the desperate look of Wangxi, and said: Actually, I am teasing you, a person who can block bullets for himself, who doesn't like that it is sick.

No one wants to die, what a wonderful thing it is to be alive. Especially for those who have died, they truly appreciate the preciousness of life. But Bai Qiulu knew that their job had to get used to death. The two armies are opposite, one must fall, there is no draw. If it is a contest, there will be winners and losers.

On the battlefield of the secret front, there are no weak people, no cowardly people, only a contest of wisdom and wisdom, only a contest of courage and courage, only a contest between limits and limits, only a confrontation between death and death, falling is not a defeat, it is just a form, everyone who falls, regardless of nationality, race, class, position, for their own country and nation, every person who dies is a martyr and a hero. The weak will not enter this battlefield, nor are they qualified to enter this battlefield. And the so-called apostasy is just a small probability of occurring, no matter how tight the organization is, there will be loopholes, which has nothing to do with the purity of the organization, but has something to do with human nature, because there is no pure human nature. Therefore, the organization attaches great importance to the construction of the supervision mechanism, in order to effectively prevent the degeneration of human nature.

Bai Qiulu appeared in New York this time, and from the moment she left the country, she strengthened her belief in death.

What Bai Qiulu didn't expect was that the person who caused this crisis turned out to be the person she loved the most, and she couldn't have imagined it. A person who was least likely to be an apostate turned out to be possible. Moreover, the incident has evolved to such an extent that it is difficult to recover. Whatever the motives of the Wangxi, it doesn't matter now, and there is only one result left for the Wangxi, and that is death.
