When he returned home, Tan Renhao found out that Lei Shaoqing's parents had left, his sister had also returned to the art troupe, and his wife had reached the labor period, so he had to go to the hospital for examination every day, and he was going to live in the hospital in the middle of the year. Parents are revolving around their daughter-in-law, and the home seems a little deserted, but it is not lacking in popularity, especially when it comes to the thought that a new life is about to be born, the family is full of joy.

"What is the due date?" Tan Renhao gently hugged his wife and accompanied her for a walk in the garden.

"On the 27th, I went to the hospital ten days in advance, and the beds were already booked." Liao Yingyu, who is about to become a mother, has a happy smile on her face. "The doctor has checked it many times, and the fetus is all right, the fetal position is also normal, and it should be able to deliver naturally."

"That's for the best."

"Are you okay this time?"

Tan Renhao was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "It's okay, the chief of staff has given me a holiday, I don't have to go to the headquarters to report, I can stay at home during this time." ”

"Then accompany me to the hospital tomorrow for a check-up!"

"Okay, I'll go with you tomorrow!" Tan Renhao helped his wife sit down, "I also want to know how the child is, is it a man or a woman?" ”

"I don't tell you, you'll know when the time comes, do you care?"

"No, it's not, I'm a daughter with Hope!"

Liao Yingyu leaned on her husband's body, in fact, everyone hopes to be a son, after all, talking about Renhao is a man, and the idea of inheriting the family is deeply rooted in the hearts of all the people in the empire.

The two of them sat quietly, enjoying the warmth and tranquility of their home. This is also a feeling that Tan Renhao can never experience on the battlefield. The war was fought for more than four years, and the only thing he felt was. Every time he stepped onto the battleship, or returned to the building at the headquarters of the Navy, he felt a little nervous. It is an occupational disease, and only at home. When he is with his loved ones, he can feel peaceful.

Liao Yingyu leaned on her husband's body, as the daughter of a soldier, the wife of a soldier, and she was also a soldier herself. She knew perfectly well that every time her husband came back was a miracle. She had no way of knowing how hard and dangerous her husband was on the front lines, but she knew that every time he left, he might not be able to return to her. This is the pressure of being a military family, perhaps, every separation is a farewell. And she can only spend every minute and every second with her husband, enjoying this rare warm life.

When Tan Renhao saw Du Xing coming with a large stack of documents, he frowned slightly.

Before he could tell Duchenne not to come and disturb him, Duchenne came over.

"This is what the Chief of Staff asked you to bring back?" Tan Renhao felt a little annoyed.

Duchenne also knew that he had rushed back at an inopportune time, and he nodded. Then he stepped aside.

"Alright, you can come over and eat together in the evening." Tan Renhao wasn't annoying his adjutant, "If you have time, you can also call home." Just remember to come over on time for dinner in the evening. ”

"General, if this time is okay, I would like to take a few days off."

Tan Renhao was stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted, Du Xing is also a human being, and he also has his own family, and he has not been home for more than a year. "It's okay, are you going home?"

Du Xing nodded, avoiding Tan Renhao's gaze.

"You just go home and have a look, remember to come over for dinner in the evening, and it's not too late to leave tomorrow!"

Duchenne did not refuse again, it was already too late, and the ferries to Ningbo had already stopped.

"It seems that Duchenne has something on his mind." Liao Yingyu's observation is even sharper than Tan Renhao.

What's going on? Tan Renhao frowned slightly, and then glanced at Du Xingna's back as he walked away.

"I think it's probably a bad thing that he didn't say something."

"Okay, I'll find time to ask." Tan Renhao sighed, "Actually, it's not easy for him, he has been with me for a few years, and I haven't helped much." ”

"Alright, let's go inside." Liao Yingyu stood up with a smile, "I knew you were a warm-hearted person, why don't I go talk to my mother and ask my mother to prepare something for Du Xing to take back?" ”

"This ......" Tan Renhao also laughed, "It's better for you to think thoughtfully, just do it, what you need, I'll find someone to buy it." ”

Five minutes before dinner, Duchenne arrived. Tan Renhao didn't ask him at the dinner table, but after eating, he called Du Xing to the study.

"Sit down, book your ticket for tomorrow?" Tan Renhao asked Duchenne to sit down.

Duchenne was still a little unaccustomed, or there was something in his heart, he just nodded, looking a little melancholy.

"Did something happen?" Tan Renhao also saw it immediately.

"It's nothing, General, if it's all right......"

"Don't worry, talk to me, when we were in the fleet before, we didn't have much time to have a good chat." Tan Renhao went to get a pack of cigarettes, "You can smoke if you want, is there something going on at home?" ”

Duchenne nodded, then shook his head again, and then took out his cigarette.

"Actually, you should know that I have always treated you as a family." Tan Renhao walked over and sat next to Du Xing, "I'm not a few years older than you, and in the past few years, you should know a little bit about me." If you don't mind, in the future, in private, you don't have to call me 'General', you can call me Renhao directly, of course, you can also call me Big Brother. ”

"General ......" Duchenne suddenly became excited, "Talking about big brother, in fact, in fact, ......"

"It's okay, it's just the two of us here, just tell me if you have anything." Tan Renhao grabbed Du Xing's shoulder, he already had a premonition that something very important must have happened in Du Xing's house.

"My mother is critically ill and probably won't last a few days......"

Tan Renhao was stunned, and he was also a little surprised.

"The doctor diagnosed it with terminal cancer, and now I am admitted to the hospital, and I only received the letter in the afternoon. Right now...... Now ......"

"Don't get excited, you bought the land for tomorrow's ferry ticket?" Tan Renhao stood up.

Duchenne nodded, and then continued to smoke his cigarette.

"I'll arrange a plane for you. You'll leave at night. Tan Renhao walked to the desk and picked up the phone. Hey, I'm Tan Renhao, help me pick up the airport, yes, the airport logistics department. ”

Duchenne immediately walked over. He knew that it was wrong to do this, but he knew that no one could change what Tan Renhao had decided, and he was in a hurry to go back.

"Immediately prepare a plane and go to Yancheng, by the way, when can it take off? Very well, before ten o'clock, I will have the adjutant come over. Tan Renhao said that Ha was very fast, "Of course, it is a very urgent matter." We need to send someone to Yancheng immediately and get the plane ready immediately, only the adjutant is alone. Call me when it's ready! ”

When Tan Renhao put down the microphone, Du Xingcai said: "Brother Tan, is this ......?"

"Don't think about it that much. Let's go back first. Tan Renhao patted Du Xing's shoulder, "Wait until I go find your aunt and bring something back." You don't have to rush back, it's not too late for you to come back when your aunt's illness is cured. ”

Du Xing nodded gratefully, Tan Renhao was using his power to help Du Xing.

"Okay, behave normally, when you get to the airport, don't tell others what you are doing in Yancheng, I will deal with other things."

"Then I'll go pack my bags first."

"Go ahead, come back to the study before you go."

Duchenne nodded and immediately left the study.

Tan Renhao sat in the study for a while, then went to the bedroom and told his wife the news that Duchenne's mother was critically ill.

"Terminal cancer?" Liao Yingyu was also surprised, "There is no way to cure this disease, it can only be delayed for a day, and the medical expenses must be very expensive." ”

"How much savings do you have at home now?"

Liao Yingyu was stunned for a moment, and then went to open the drawer. "I used to be in the bank, and my family only had 5,000 yuan."

"Give it to me, Duchenne's family is very poor." Tan Renhao sighed, "Now, it's okay to help him a little." ”

Liao Yingyu did not hesitate and immediately took out the money and gave it to her husband. She also knew that her husband was in the army, and it could be said that the husband spent much more time with the adjutant than with his wife, and Duchenne was like her husband's nanny.

"Yingyu, in fact, ......"

"It's okay, we should help with these favors, and I know what to do, don't think so much, go and give Duchenne quickly, otherwise he won't be able to catch the plane."

Tan Renhao glanced at his wife gratefully, perhaps the most worthy thing for Liao Yingyu to like is that he never regards money as more important than feelings.

When Duchenne returned to the study and Tan Renhao gave him the money, it was Duchenne's turn to be surprised.

"Brother Tan, I can't ask for this money, I'm already very grateful, and ......"

"Take it, don't be your mother-in-law!" Tan Renhao stuffed the money into the pocket of Duchenne's clothes, "Have you packed all your luggage?" ”

Duchenne nodded, he also knew the importance of the money.

"I've been looking for your aunt, haven't you?"

"I've found it, she's prepared ......"

"Then let's hurry up and catch a plane." Tan Renhao smiled and patted Du Xing's shoulder, "Cheer up, your mother definitely doesn't want to see you grieve and go back like a man." ”

"Talking about big brother ......"

Tan Renhao also wanted to say something comforting, but the phone on the table rang, and he immediately went over and picked up the phone. "Yes, very well, my adjutant will come right over, get the plane ready, and leave as soon as it arrives. Yes, I said it, it's urgent, I'll ask the chief of staff to give you an official document tomorrow, don't worry about it so much, it's a very important thing, that's all. ”

Du Xing sighed secretly, in the past few years, he has always been very grateful to Tan Renhao, and he knows that he has followed the right chief, if he changes to another chief, he will definitely not be so enthusiastic.

"Okay, the plane is ready to take off." Tan Renhao sent Duchen to the door, "When you get to the airport, you hand over the car to the guards over there, and they will drive back." Spend more time at home with your mother and don't rush back. ”

"Talking about big brother ......"

"If you want to say anything, tell me when you get back!" Tan Renhao patted Du Xing's shoulder, "Let's go catch a plane." ”

Du Xing nodded and hurried out of the study, he suddenly turned around and gave a standard military salute to Tan Renhao. Tan Renhao was stunned for a moment, and then immediately returned the salute.

When Du Xing arrived downstairs, Liao Yingyu walked out of the bedroom.

"You're not resting yet?"

"Don't worry, I can't sleep yet." Liao Yingyu leaned against her husband's side, "Actually, Duchenne is also very pitiful. ”

Tan Renhao sighed, if you want to blame, you can only blame this war, if it wasn't for this war, Duchenne would have stayed by his mother's side a long time ago.

"You should rest early, we have to go to the hospital tomorrow."

Tan Renhao helped his wife into the bedroom. "It's okay, you go to sleep first, I'm not very tired yet, wait and see my parents."

Liao Yingyu nodded understandingly, except for chatting with her parents at the dinner table, Tan Renhao hadn't talked to her parents yet.

After his wife fell asleep, Tan Renhao came downstairs. The mother was doing the laundry, while the father was smoking in the garden outside.

"Dad, why don't you go to rest?"

"It's pretty early, people are old and can't sleep." Tan Jingkang smiled at his son, "What happened to Du Xing's family?" I asked your mom to prepare some souvenirs for him to take home, this ......."

"His mother is critically ill and has terminal cancer." Tan Renhao sat down on the stone bench next to his father, "The letter arrived a few days late, and I arranged a plane for him to rush back now." ”

"Arrange a plane? Is this okay? ”

"Don't worry, it's okay." Tan Renhao knew what his father was worried about, "When did Shaoqing's parents leave?" ”

"Soon after you left, they went to Beidaihe, you know? Xiao Lei actually stood up, and the doctors said it was a miracle! ”

Tan Renhao laughed. "I've heard people say that it's a miracle, it seems like he's still in rehabilitation."

"Yes, Lao Lei also called me and said that after Xiao Lei recovered, he would be the first to visit us."

Tan Renhao nodded slightly, he didn't tell his father what he knew more.

"Also, I heard that they got a house here, and we will be neighbors in the future, and we can often go back and forth, so that your mother and I don't have to worry about no acquaintances, I don't know where to go to visit the door one day, and it's very uncomfortable to stay at home all day, hey!"

"Dad, then you should prepare a big gift, remember to prepare one for me too."

"Don't worry, I'm already preparing these things, and when they move over, I'll be the first to give gifts!"

Tan Renhao laughed, his father is still so honest and honest, and if Lei Shaoqing's family can move over, it will also be a good thing, at least the four old people can be companions in the future, and they will not feel lonely.
