The old professor and his wife had a tragic experience during the turmoil, and it was during that time that they lost their only son.

Liu Xuehua's father, has a long period of military experience, his footsteps all over the country, and once, stepped into the campus of "H Military Industry", just in the years when his old man "stood aside", the theory professor and his wife, as his old subordinates, were also seriously impacted, their only son, because no one took care of him, died of illness at home, and some people said that he was "starved to death".

After the reform and opening up, Liu's father also returned to the "H military industry" twice, every time he wanted to see his colleagues many years ago, the theory professor and his wife avoided it for various reasons, their family was too deeply affected by the old chief's "melon fall", they have a term that can describe themselves in their later years, that is, "the old man who lost his independence".

Guo Kaishan took the old professor's theory class for the first time, and the old professor liked him, half of the reason is that Guo Kaishan's academic performance is very good, and the rest is that he and his son are "imitating the age", if the son lives to this day, it may be Guo Kaishan's age. When the old professor told his wife about inviting Guo Kaishan to eat at home, his wife was also very happy, most of the people who came to eat at home in the past were colleagues from the school, and it was good to have a young man today.

But when Guo Kaishan mentioned the name "Liu Xuehua", the professor's wife remembered Liu's father, she thought that it must be Guo Kaishan who took the initiative to win over the powerful in order to make progress in the army, and lost the meaning of inviting him to this meal today.

"Don't pay attention to her, she's old, she has nothing to do at home after retirement, and she's going through menopause recently." In order to find a reason for his wife, the old professor made up a sentence "menopause". This term was very popular at the time, and anyone with a big temper would say that he was "menopause".

"I know it, but you didn't rush me." What a smart person the tactical instructor is, he has been teaching in the school for many years, and he has also heard some things about the old professor's wife and Liu's father in private, and today he only blames Guo Kaishan for mentioning Liu Xuehua, so the old lady may be angry with Guo Kaishan.

Yue Hong is also in her twenties, and she has never been in a relationship with anyone. After dancing two songs with Guo Kaishan today, she found that her body had more infinite strength, although the man in front of her already had a family, she was still willing to stay with him for a while, and it was good to learn to talk about love.

Guo Kaishan's feeling for Yue Hong has also changed from avoiding at the beginning to "talking about everything", and he and Yue Hong walked along the way. has been telling stories to Yue Hong, as if she was his sister, he wanted to have a sister when he was a child, but his mother gave birth to a younger brother next. And these younger brothers all have strong personalities, and if they want to protect them, they don't have a chance.

"How can you say that, are you chattering?" Yue Hong wanted to speak several times. all made Guo Kaishan's rough voice suppress back.

"Oh, yes, weird. I haven't talked to others so much before, so I won't talk about it next, just listen to you. Guo Kaishan's "chattering" problem originated from Liu Xuehua, when he was with Liu Xuehua, it was often like this, no matter what he said, Liu Xuehua would listen carefully, sometimes Guo Kaishan could talk for hours in a row, Liu Xuehua's big eyes kept staring at him, and he became more and more able to speak.

"You and I, tell me the story between you and your lover, long story short."

"There are so many stories about us, in short, I would be with her every day before I joined the army, such as picking up dung together, collecting pigweed together, and chopping wood together."

"She's your child's daughter-in-law?" Yue Hong suddenly thought of a book she had read a few days ago, in which the child daughter-in-law was much older than her husband, and she was good enough to be his mother.

"No, how many years has it been since the founding of New China, where is there this, you can quite associate it."

"Then tell me the story of the two of you after becoming a soldier."

Guo Kaishan thought about it, except for the time before marriage, Guan Yue and his trivial matters in the dormitory, there really didn't have too many stories, and he shook his head after the most, saying that there was no story.

"I kind of understand, the relationship between you is the relationship between you when you were a child, and your relationship after joining the army is blank with her, what I said is not wrong."

Guo Kaishan thought about it again, indeed, now they can't see each other a few times a year, the only time for family leave every year, they have to go back to their hometown to visit their parents, and they really live alone together very little, and now his son Xiaoshan is still making a lot of trouble, and he is annoyed when he sees him, and what feelings do he talk about.

"No, I have my job, she has her career, at least we miss each other."

"And what is your way of expressing it?"

"We correspond a lot, and we write it every month."

"Is that more you wrote, or more did she write?"

"Mine is more, she usually writes a letter in three or four months, or if there is something at home, write one to me."

"Oh, it turns out that love after marriage is like this." Yue Hong is like a reporter, she wants to understand from Guo Kaishan's mouth how lovers get along with each other, and what their emotional needs are.

"It's late, let's go back, I'll say hello to the teacher, and I'm going back to the class to rest."

When the two returned to the old professor's house, the tactics instructor was playing chess with the old professor, so the two walked over to watch the game.

"Where have you two gone?"

"Just walk around the river, eat and eat, what about your wife?"

"I'm old, I'm tired quickly, go upstairs to rest."

"It's late, let's get out too."

The next day, when Guo Kaishan finished Yue Hong's class and was about to go back to the dormitory to rest, Yue Hong stepped forward and gave him a letter, and the comrades-in-arms around him wondered why Yue Hong would send a letter to Guo Kaishan alone, fortunately, Guo Kaishan rarely joked with his comrades-in-arms at ordinary times, otherwise, someone would definitely snatch the letter and read it aloud in public.

Yue Hong's letter was written very straightforwardly, which surprised Guo Kaishan that the letter was written like this.

"Hello Comrade Guo Kaishan, maybe I wrote this letter a little abruptly, but I want to ask you to revisit me and see if we can make friends, I have very few friends in my life, if you think you can, please wait for me at the pavilion next to yesterday's river at night, see you or leave, Yue Hong."

This letter is obviously a very ordinary dating letter, but when a man and a woman make friends, it is inevitable that people will think of something, Guo Kaishan decided not to go at night, and then burned the letter point and destroyed it.

For the next two days, Teacher Yue Hong did not come to class, and the acting instructor said that she was sick, and it was quite serious, and it was a "severe cold".

"Brother Guo, we want to go and see Teacher Yue Hong on Sunday, will you go?" Xing Kai, the leader of the eighth squad, contacted several comrades-in-arms of the first squadron, and everyone planned to take advantage of the rest day to go to the hospital to see Yue Hong and buy her some fruits to express their condolences.

"I have something to do on Sunday, so I won't go." The "Sniper Training Brigade" is not as tense as in the grassroots troops, every Sunday, everyone can have a day off, some people go to the post office to make a long-distance call home, and some people will go to eat something good, Xing Kai saw that Guo Kaishan didn't want to go together, and thought that the "knot" he had with Yue Hong before had not been unraveled, so he didn't force him.

On Sunday, Guo Kaishan came to the pavilion by the river, he recalled the letter that Yue Hong gave him, and felt that Yue Hong must have been sick in order to "date" him, let the cold wind blow, and he wanted to see if the evening breeze here was "hard or not".

The evening breeze in the pavilion was really hard, and the wind blew on Guo Kaishan's body, making him shiver constantly, but he didn't go away, he was responsible for his neglect of others, and Yue Hong wanted to wait for him to get sick, he also had to blow here for a few hours to punish himself.

"Who's over there? Can you do me a favor. ”

Guo Kaishan followed the sound and looked, a black shadow seemed to be carrying something, and when he got closer, he saw that it was the wife of a theory professor, and at her feet, there was a net of "sweet potatoes", at least more than 20 catties.

"Auntie is me."

"Can you help me move it back, my waist is not good." It turned out that the dry rest house had a new thing, because it was a tube or not, the old lady had to bring it back alone, and when she passed by the pavilion, she thought it was someone she knew, so she called Guo Kaishan.

After Guo Kaishan sent the "sweet potato" to the professor's kitchen and put it away, the professor's wife said enthusiastically, "You are Xiao Guo, I came to the house a few days ago, I didn't entertain you well, let's eat at home at night." ”

"No, Auntie, I still have some things, and I made an appointment with a friend."

"Then come to the house for dinner another day."

Guo Kaishan returned to the pavilion, he was going to spend the night here, but no matter how the wind blows, his body is still so strong, and there is no sign of a cold.

At about nine o'clock in the evening, Guo Kaishan was still blowing in the gazebo, and this time he took off his coat and wore a "hurdle vest", ready to "catch a cold".

"Who is in front of you, what are you doing here if you don't sleep at night?"

Guo Kaishan looked back, and it turned out that the old professor and his wife were taking a walk, so he put on his clothes and walked over, "It's me." ”

"Why haven't you left yet, what's wrong?" The professor's wife thought that Guo Kaishan had made an appointment with someone, so he shouldn't be here at this time.

"The person who made the appointment didn't come, I want to wait for him a little longer."

"This kid is real, I've been waiting all afternoon, I'm still waiting here, I haven't eaten dinner, let's go, let's eat at home."

"Auntie, I'm not going, I'll wait a while, if I haven't come yet, I'll go back to the dormitory."

"I'm going to eat when I go back, it's too late, let's go, I'll give you a bowl of noodles when I go home." The professor's wife couldn't say anything, so she dragged Guo Kaishan to her home. (To be continued......)
