Chapter 204 Matchmaking
After the group returned to Yunshui County from Lushan, there were only 5 days left before the old calendar year. During this period, the Ordnance Research Institute took out samples of military steel helmets, and Ouyang Jian personally participated in the experiment, but the test results were not very satisfactory, perhaps because of his strict requirements. According to the problems found in the test, Ouyang Jian put forward suggestions for improvement and asked the Ordnance Research Institute to come up with a feasible plan as soon as possible. This busy work lasted for two days, and on the evening of returning to Yunshui County, an operational staff officer reported that the chairman invited him to come over for dinner.
Ouyang Jian thought that Runzhi wanted to understand the trial production of military steel helmets, but after entering the house, he saw that the wine and food had been placed on the table, and Runzhi and Zhu De smiled and groaned, and there seemed to be some kind of mystery. "Chairman, Mr. Zhu, it's a pity that what I brought back is bad news. The military steel helmets have been tested with live ammunition and explosions, and they are not satisfactory in accordance with the regulations, and I ask the Ordnance Research Institute to improve them as soon as possible. Zhu De said with a smile: "Chief of Staff Ouyang, the chairman is not looking for you to drink to understand the trial production of steel helmets, but to talk about private matters!" "Private?" Ouyang Jian was a little confused.
Runzhi smiled: "Brother Ouyang, this year's Gui Geng? "How do you think to ask this, it's not a secret that we are 35 years old this year." "Look, at the age of 35, he is still Wang Lao Wu, and he can be a grandfather at this age. Right now, your marriage is a top priority. Maybe you are still nostalgic for Comrade Lu Wenting, but she has sacrificed, you have to face the reality and don't be trapped by love. "Chairman, you should know me, I'm not the kind of fragile person. At the moment, I am busy with work and have no time to think about personal issues. ”
"The ancients said: My fair lady and gentleman are good. We are believers, believers are not ascetics who do not eat the fireworks of the world, and if your personal problems are not solved, it will not have a good impact on your subordinates. Runzhi said with a serious expression. Ouyang Jian suddenly realized, it turned out that Runzhi said that he wanted to do a big thing, and it turned out that he was going to handle his own marriage. "Chairman, I will settle this matter, and I will invite you to drink a wedding wine at that time." Zhu De said with a smile: "To put it lightly, I'm afraid that drinking happy wine will have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse Month, and we can't afford to wait." I have consulted with the President and I will personally act as a matchmaker for you. ”
After Zhu De finished speaking, he took out a photo and said: "The chairman and I entrusted the director of the field hospital to find you a good girl, who is as good as you in appearance, figure, and knowledge." The girl is a student of the field hospital doctor's class, Fang Ling is 22 years old, look at it! Runzhi continued: "Mr. Zhu and I specially asked the girl, and the girl has no opinion, are you satisfied with the photo?" Ouyang Jian didn't take the photo, but his scalp suddenly tingled and said, "Chairman, Mr. Zhu, this can't be helped." Truth be told, I already have a girl I like. ”
"Mr. Zhu, it seems that you and I have done this too much, may I ask who this girl is!" "This, it's my subordinate's name Mei Fang, the math genius who came back from the United States!" "You finally tell the truth, Comrade Mei Fang, please come in!" As soon as Runzhi's words fell, he saw the door open, and Mei Fang's face was a little red and she walked out happily. Ouyang Jian looked at Mei Fang, obviously showing dissatisfaction. "This matter has nothing to do with Miss Mei Fang. After a side investigation, Mr. Zhu and I found that you have a close relationship with Comrade Mei Fang, so we asked for Mei Fang's opinion behind your back! ”
"Brother Ouyang, Miss Mei Fang has always been in love with you, no matter her own conditions and talents, she is impeccable, when are you going to let the family wait?" "This..." "Just now you admit that you like Miss Mei Fang, right! It's as simple as that. I discussed with Mr. Zhu to be your witness, and I personally officiated the wedding for you. There are only three days before the New Year, and the soldiers are fast, so I think we will choose to hold a wedding on the 30th of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and we will celebrate the New Year with joy. Mei Fang was excited, stepped forward and grabbed Ouyang Jian's arm and said.
"Thank you, President and Commander-in-Chief Zhu, for the wedding of the Chinese New Year's Eve, which is a double happiness." "Chairman, Mr. Zhu! Thank you for your care, it seems that you can't refuse, then it's better to be respectful than to die. But I ask that the wedding be held on a small scale and not in a big way. "I understand your feelings, the wedding must have a female dependent, I think how about holding 3 tables?" "I have no opinion!". Soon the Chinese New Year's Eve arrived, and early in the morning, the corps headquarters was full of joy, and the daughters of the main military and political personnel arranged the wedding scene in the small hall.
Three tables were set up in the auditorium, on which sweets and cigarettes were placed. Soon, the invited guests arrived one after another. A table was placed in front of the rostrum, Runzhi, Zhu De, Mao Zetan, Zhang Hanfu, Li Guangda and his wife were seated, and Ouyang Jian and Mei Fang were also sitting on the table in front. One of the two tables in the back sat Su Yu, Luo Ronghuan, He Long, Zhang Shiying, Xiao Ke and their wives. The other table was Lin Yifan, Mu Shixiong, Shangguan Fei, Gong Nan and their wives.
When the time came, in the warm applause, Runzhi walked up to the rostrum with a radiant look, he was dressed in a gray tunic, and a red cloth was pinned to his chest, and the word "witness" was written on the red cloth. Runzhi excitedly said into the microphone: "Comrades, today is the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and with the joy of the year and Comrade Ouyang Jian, Comrade Mei Fang will form a revolutionary partner and start a new life." I am honored to be a witness, and I wish them mutual respect and love, one heart and one mind, and growing old together. Now I declare that Comrade Ouyang Jian and Comrade Mei Fang have officially become a revolutionary husband and wife. ”
In the warm applause, Runzhi handed over the marriage certificate to Ouyang Jian and said: "Comrades, my task has been completed, now I invite Comrade Ouyang Jian to speak." Ouyang Jian was dressed in a military uniform, the beard on his face and lips was cleanly shaved, and his flat head was shaved, looking young and handsome, strong and straight. Mei Fang is also wearing a women's military uniform, with a grass-green skirt and half-high-heeled leather shoes. Her hair itself is naturally curved, and her face is painted with light makeup, which looks beautiful, modern, slim, and her temperament looks like a Shanghainese style.
"Comrades, today is the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, thank you all for coming to our wedding. In particular, the chairman and the boss acted as matchmakers and witnessed marriages, which made me even more grateful. May happiness bring good luck to everyone, and I wish you all the best in the new year. Thin wine and vegetarian dishes are not a tribute, please use them slowly. The short and chic wedding ceremony ended quickly, followed by the food and drinks. Ouyang Jian asked that no followers were allowed before, so the people attending the wedding could just bring their mouths.
During the banquet, Runzhi talked and laughed, and there were witty words, but Ouyang Jian remained addicted, Mei Fang seemed to have been silent in happiness, and walked down and drank a lot of wine, and her face was red. The banquet lasted until dusk, followed by the New Year's Eve and vigil, and it was noisy until the New Year's bell rang, and everyone ate the Chinese New Year's Eve dumplings before they dispersed. Mei Fang and Ouyang Jian returned to their residence, and because they had drunk a lot of wine, the two of them were a little dizzy and sat at the table. "Ouyang, I'm not dreaming!" Mei Fang held Ouyang Jian's hand, her eyes a little confused.
"It's not a dream, it's just a dream!" "It seems that only the chairman and the boss can make you obedient, and I can't hide it, I wrote to them to tell them the truth before. The photo they are holding is actually a jade photo of my sister, you won't blame me! Ouyang Jian shook his head. Ouyang, I am not drunk and everyone is drunk, and I can be your wife・・・・・・ Mei Fang muttered and fell asleep on the table. Because her hand was held by Mei Fang, Ouyang Jian couldn't bear to wake her up, so she sat down at the table and admired Mei Fang's sleeping state.
Soon, Ouyang Jian felt lightheaded, and he also fell asleep on the table. I don't know how long it took, a bell rang in my ears, and Ouyang Jian was awakened. Raise your eyes and see that the clock hour hand is towards 5 o'clock in the morning. At this time, Mei Fang slept very sweetly, still holding Ouyang Jian's hand, for fear that he would run away. Maybe he had been suppressed for too long, Ouyang Jian began to be restless, and he took the opportunity to hug Mei Fang. "What are you going to do?" Mei Fang was awakened, "What do you say we're going to do?" Mei Fang's face turned red when she heard this, and she hurriedly buried her head in Ouyang Jian's embrace・・・・・・
Mei Fang's hair was messy, her face was pressed against her husband's solid chest, and she seemed to be intoxicated again by smelling the man's body fragrance. Outside the window, it was white, and the sound of firecrackers could be heard. Seeing that Ouyang Jian slept very sweetly, Mei Fang seemed to be extremely excited, got up and simply cleaned up and said silently: From today onwards, I will be a wife, and I must be a good wife. But looking at the pots and pans, I began to have difficulties, and I didn't know how to start. At this time, I only heard a sound, and the table clock rang, and I saw Ouyang Jian and a carp sitting up, and then dressing very quickly.
Mei Fang was startled, and when she was dazzled, she saw that Ouyang Jian was already dressed, and the quilt was folded squarely. Mei Fang calculated the time in less than two minutes. "Ouyang, is this how you usually get up?" "Yes, years of military service have developed a habit, and I can't change it." "It's incredible, you scared me by what you just did." "You have to get used to having a military husband. Now that she has become my wife, she doesn't want to sleep in the future. I go to morning exercises with me every day. ”
"Obey, as long as I am with you, I will do whatever I want. Ouyang! There were wrapped dumplings on the board, but I didn't know how to cook them because I had never cooked. "I'll teach you in the future, and the cooking class will also make dumplings today, and we'll go to the cafeteria to eat." "Ouyang, don't worry, I will try my best to be a good wife!" "You can't take care of me if you want to, your mind has to be used on work, since you have become my wife, it means that you can't help yourself, because we belong to this country, this nation, and this era."
Mei Fang stepped forward and hugged Ouyang Jian's neck with both hands, her eyes staring at her husband's face and nodding solemnly. The lively year passed in a blink of an eye, and after breaking the five, Runzhi and Zhu De turned to Ruijin. Outside the south gate of Yunshui County, bathed in the spring breeze of Hexi, the crowd of people seeing off seemed to be inseparable. Runzhi asked Ouyang Jian not to engage in the send-off scene, so there were not many people to see him off, but they were all heavyweight military and political dignitaries. The three brothers also came to see off their father. During this time, the three brothers have been living with their father, blood is thicker than water, and there is no strangeness between father and son.
At that time, Zhu De said goodbye to the military commander. Runzhi talked with the children, and the father's love was deep. Then Runzhi talked with his brother for a few more words, and finally Runzhi walked up to Ouyang Jian and his wife and said: "Brother Ouyang, the children have bothered you, they are very advanced, and they can be said to be strong generals without weak soldiers." Next time I go to Ruijin, I must take Mei Fang and let Mei Fang taste Zizhen's specialty Hunan cuisine. "Chairman, Shore Dragon has a talent for mathematics, and I am ready to train him carefully." "Comrade Mei Fang, then please!"
