After dark, countless stars fill the night sky, dense and twinkling. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info a crescent moon turned out of the clouds, emitting a bright and soft light.

In Xinghua Village, in the kitchens of every household, the stove is blazing, and the big iron pot covered with the lid is constantly steaming hot white gas, exuding the fragrance of small rice. On the roof of the kitchen, puffs of cooking smoke rushed out of the chimney along the flue and disappeared into the silent night sky in the blink of an eye.

The west wing of a family in the west of the village is half open, and the oil lamp is lit in the house, Feng Tao is sitting on the kang and lying on the kang table is writing materials, and when he hears someone knocking on the door twice, he raises his head, and sees a young female comrade in a gray cotton military uniform standing at the door, she bends her eyebrows and fine eyes, her cherry mouth and peach cheeks, her right hand is wrapped in gauze, and she is hanging with a bandage. "Oh, it's Cao Min, the golden voice, please take a seat." Feng Tao greeted him with a smile, and when Cao Min came in and sat on the kang, he saw that the blood oozing from the gauze on her hand had turned black, so he asked with concern, "This place is about to become the front line, why don't you transfer it yet?" ”

Cao Min said lightly, "I don't want to be idle after the radio station is suspended, so I'll help out here to do some pre-support work." Then, she looked at Feng Tao, blinking her eyes that were brighter than an oil lamp, and a large blush appeared on her face, "I was deeply attracted by you when I watched you act in the white area, and I thought at that time, how nice it would be if you were your own person." Hehe, I can't imagine that you are really your own person. My Battalion Commander Feng, speaking of which, the two of us are quite fateful. ”

Feng Tao heard what she said, didn't say anything, was silent for a moment, and said, "Xiao Cao, I'm just the battalion commander now." ”

It turned out that during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the Communist Party had a rule that if the Communist Party's military and party and government personnel wanted to marry female soldiers in the army or female comrades in party and government departments, they must meet the conditions of the 2857th Regiment, that is, 28 years old, five years of party experience, seven years of military age, and regiment-level cadres. This policy did not come from an official document of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, but was a local policy formulated by certain departments of the Communist Party, including some departments of the central organs, because this local policy was very beneficial to some departments that could not find their wives under their leadership, so many departments followed suit.

This policy inevitably had some negative effects on the Communist Party at that time. Whether a lesbian will fall in love with a gay man with an equal or lower position than herself is another matter. However, the formulation of this local policy is tantamount to depriving cadres and fighters below the battalion level of the right to accept the love of female comrades and the right to fall in love with female comrades in the name of the party organization.

Because it is a local policy, there are still differences in the regulations of some departments, for example, some departments stipulate the 285th Regiment, that is, the requirement of seven years of military age has been removed.

Or because it is a local policy, some departments do not forcibly prohibit young male and female lovers who do not meet this regulation, but really love each other. For example, when the red female spy Zhang Luping got married in Yan'an when she was 18 years old, her husband Li Qing was 19 years old, and she had only joined the party for one year.

Or because it was a local policy, and later the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China decided to officially abolish this local policy, so there was a good story about a beautiful female captain and a male second lieutenant tying the knot after the PLA first implemented the military rank system.

At this moment, Cao Min's face turned red, his eyes were round, revealing his white little tiger teeth, "If I want to be the wife of an official, I can be the wife of a general of the Kuomintang in the white area, and I can be the wife of the commander of the Communist Party of China in the military region here, but I am not rare!" What I like is the charm of a man, not his official position! ”

Cao Min said this, of course, not to brag. When she was in the white area, a general with a dead wife took a fancy to her, asked someone to talk to the matchmaker, but she refused. After arriving in the New Fourth Army, a commander of a military region also took a fancy to her, and asked an eldest sister to pull the strings, but she also refused. The eldest sister felt that she had no face, so she reprimanded with a tiger face: "Xiao Cao, do you still have the class feelings of a proletarian revolutionary fighter?" Where is your organizational discipline gone? Commander Li was born and died for the revolution, why don't you love such an old revolution? ”

Cao Min rolled his eyes and said, "Commander Li is an old revolutionary, but this can't be a reason why I have to fall in love with him. ”

The eldest sister was angry, "I am talking to you on behalf of the party organization, and the organization also thinks you are very suitable." And you look down on Commander Li, you are seriously petty-bourgeois liberal ideology at work! ”

Cao Min did not show weakness, held his slender neck high, and asked unruly: "Sister, which book, article, and page of Marx, Engels, Lenin, and Stalin says that if you fall in love with the old revolutionary, you are the proletariat, and if you don't love him, you are a petty bourgeoisie?" If there is such a thing in Chairman Mao's article, as long as you can find out the leader's teachings in this area, I will fall in love with Commander Li. ”

The eldest sister was choked and her face was red, her mouth was grinning, but she couldn't say a word. Yes, which leader said that if you don't love the old revolution, you are a petty bourgeoisie?

At this moment, hearing Cao Min's confession, Feng Tao nodded gratefully, and then lowered his head again. "I already have a lover in the white area, so I can't step on two boats."

Cao Min was stunned, "Are you married?" ”

Feng Tao smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Seeing him shake his head, Cao Min breathed a sigh of relief and sneered, "You've been here for almost four years, and it seems that you haven't been in touch with each other." In this case, your fate is over. So there is nothing wrong with any of you who have anything else to love now. ”

These words poked Feng Tao's faint sore spot. His brow furrowed, his face gloomy. When he left Chongqing, he thought it was only a temporary separation. Unexpectedly, this has not been followed. For more than three years, he and she had not heard from her. Now the Jianghuai region has been forced to give up, the situation has deteriorated, and the romance of the appointment is far away. This is not good, and the contradiction is constantly and not good, how can he not be troubled?

At this moment, Feng Tao remembered the past again. On that morning in the autumn of 1943, in the suburbs of Chongqing, shrouded in a faint white fog, when he was separated from Feng, Feng snuggled up to him, sobbing softly, and whispered: "I will always wait for you to come back, don't forget me." ”

At that time, Feng Tao also hugged Feng and said emotionally: "Don't worry, I will never forget you, and when the Anti-Japanese War is won, I will definitely take the initiative to come to you." ”

Feng was very relieved to hear this, and hugged Feng Tao tighter. This is how the two hugged each other and snuggled up to each other for a long time......

Thinking of this, Feng Tao couldn't help but be even more depressed. In a blink of an eye, more than three years have passed, and more than a year has passed since the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, but he and Feng have been separated for a long time and are still looking forward to the two sides of the galaxy. When they will meet again, he has no way of knowing, only a cloud of melancholy blocking his heart.

Seeing that he was silent, Cao Min's heart was even more happy, she stood up with a smile, stared at Feng Tao, and suddenly pounced on him and kissed Feng Tao's cheek.

At this moment, Xiao Mao Xiaojiang stepped in, and his mouth was as if he had swallowed a big leather ball when he saw this scene. Cao Min was very shy at this moment, and hurriedly turned his back. (To be continued.) )
