When I woke up in the morning, I suddenly heard Sister-in-law Lin anxiously shouting rhubarb at the door, Shen Mengxi looked out of the window, only to see Sister-in-law Lin bending over near the kennel and watching, and hurriedly ran downstairs.

When he arrived at the door, he saw that the kennel was empty, only a handful of yellow dog hair swayed slightly in the wind, Shen Mengxi picked up the yellow hair, tears fell,—— rhubarb left.

In the past week, the rhubarb diet has decreased, and most of the time it is drowsy in the kennel, yesterday evening, Shen Mengxi squatted in front of the kennel, stroking the rhubarb, rhubarb stretched out his tongue and licked her hand, its stomach rose and fell, as if panting was a very laborious thing, Shen Mengxi felt sad.

But I didn't expect Rhubarb to leave home and leave her before he died. Is the two licks yesterday a farewell, is it afraid that the owner will be sad, is it afraid that the owner will see it embarrassed?

Shen Mengxi pinched the pinch of dog hair in his hand and ran out of the gate to look for rhubarb.

How far can the old dog in the old age of the wind candle go, but Shen Mengxi and several people have been looking for most of the day, but they still haven't seen the shadow of Rhubarb, she went home in a lost place, and she didn't look for it, Rhubarb chose to say goodbye to her in this way, then she didn't look for it.

A stray dog that was adopted casually, fed some food, has not been bothered, and there are eight years in between, in which she has hardly thought of Rhubarb, but it is obvious that Rhubarb is trying to wait for her to come back.

As if he had failed a very important friend, Shen Mengxi fell sadly on the table and did not move for a long time.

When Wang Shouqing returned to Shanghai, he came to pick up his wife and go to Nanjing to attend the ceremony of returning the capital.

At the door of the study, he looked at his wife, who was staring at a handful of dog hair, and coughed, "It turns out that I don't live as well as a dog." ”

Shen Mengxi turned his head sideways when he heard the voice, and when he saw Wang Shouqing, he looked happy, but there was still the sadness just now, and then the corners of his mouth went down, Wang Shouqing walked over quickly, hugged her, and stroked her back, "Okay, okay, let's go to Nanjing to relax." ”

The two haven't seen each other for three years, there is no strangeness, but there is not too much excitement, Shen Mengxi leaned on Wang Shouqing's shoulder, shed tears for a while, and gradually calmed down. - Someone who cries with you is different from crying alone.

"What do you think about Rhubarb, why did you leave quietly?"

"Probably the remnants of the wolf nature, it wants to die with dignity."

"Really?" Shen Mengxi turned his head and looked at him suspiciously.

"Haha, how do I know?"

Shen Mengxi was so angry that he slapped him, "You're still laughing!" ”

Last year, the Nationalist Government allocated 1 billion yuan for housing construction, ordered 1,700 simple houses from the United States, and repaired Chairman Jiang's mansion, Meiling Palace, and Tangshan Villa at the Central Military Academy.

After half a year of repair, there are still broken walls everywhere, and it can be seen that the wounds are deep.

At this time, there were many cases of officials seizing real estate, gold, silver and jewelry, and almost all of the more than 1,000 garden houses fell into the hands of military and political dignitaries who returned to Nanjing ahead of schedule to carry out the work. When Shen Mengxi saw Sun Shengyi, she looked defeated, her family's three-story house was occupied, and they had been renting a house and living in a small house for more than three months.

The people of Nanjing are scolding, these receivers are "five sons of Dengke", that is, houses, tickets, cars, strips, and bitches. No one cares about the lives of the people at all, and everything that can be grabbed is grabbed into their own pockets. Prices in Nanjing are frighteningly high, and we simply can't survive! Sun Shengyi looked haggard, "It seems that it is better to be in Chongqing." ”

Shen Mengxi looked at Wang Shouqing dissatisfied, "Say!" Did you rob it too? You also have five sons in the department? ”

Wang Shouqing immediately spread his hands and shook his head in denial, "No, no, no, I can't do this kind of thing." ”

looked at his wife's ugly face and said, "This kind of atmosphere can't even be done by the chairman, and the law doesn't blame the public." Gotta don't be angry, I'll see if I can get it back. ”

Shen Mengxi's eyes lit up, "Really? ”

"Really." Wang Shouqing smiled, he felt that his wife had been like this several times, "Really? It's true? It's interesting.

The house assigned by Wang Shouqing is a three-story house in Meiyuan New Village, and a young soldier stands at the door, salutes and says with a smile, "Hello, madam!" ”

Shen Mengxi looked at Wang Shouqing suspiciously, and asked Adjutant Liu?

"This is Adjutant Xin."

Shen Mengxi nodded and smiled at Adjutant Xin, "Hello." ”

She didn't ask about Adjutant Liu's whereabouts, the new scars on Wang Shouqing's body, and the news that the Central Army had been defeated and retreated in recent years, so she knew that they had worked hard all these years, and that loyal adjutant should not have been promoted, but had already sacrificed.

In the afternoon, a staff member came to register Shen Mengxi's identity information, received two one-inch photos, and soon sent a national ID card.

After dinner, Shen Mengxi and his wife walked around the neighborhood casually, there were no decent trees near the residence, the lawn was mottled and did not grow well, all the houses were just renovated, no matter how you look at it, they are all in a state of ruin.

A few children chased each other and shouted, only then did it seem that there was some life this evening, and Shen Mengxi breathed a sigh of relief.

"Lin Huiya and her second sister-in-law actually gave birth to children, but it's a pity that I've not been at home all these years, otherwise," Wang Shouqing looked at the running child and suddenly said.

"Yes, I have Ah Huan, but you don't have your own children." Shen Mengxi looked back at Wang Shouqing and said.

"Forget it, they have children for nine deaths, it's too dangerous, Ah Huan is also my child, we will be grandparents in a blink of an eye, what more children do you want, do you have the ability to be an old man Qi Huang?" After saying that, he laughed first.

After laughing, his wife still looked at him, and said seriously, "The second sister-in-law has a difficult birth, you have an operation, if you have a difficult birth, who can save you." I don't want to risk it. ”

Shen Mengxi nodded, took his arm, and the two walked forward.

I saw a house not far away, gathered more than a dozen people, carrying luggage and belongings, several people laughed loudly, very lively, Wang Shouqing explained, "That is the residence of the ZG delegation." ”

Shen Mengxi sighed, sure enough, there was really the figure of the couple there, compared to Chongqing Hongyan at first sight, there were a little vicissitudes, but the man was still handsome, and the woman was still kind.

Wang Shouqing suddenly saw his wife's eyes burning, and felt very dazzling, "Don't look at it, there are people watching them all the time here, you have seen too much, be careful of causing trouble." ”

On May 5th, the ceremony was held in the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, and the reason why this time and place was chosen was because 25 years ago today, it was the day when Mr. Sun took office as the president and established the revolutionary government in Guangzhou. In front of the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, to pay homage to Mr. in memory of Mr. and to tell Mr. the victory of the national revolution, in order to tell the people not to forget the original revolutionary intention of the Three People's Doctrine.

Civil and military officials, and representatives of various democratic parties attended the ceremony, Shen Mengxi met the second brother and the fourth brother from afar, and many family members of officials, such as Shen Mengxi, were also invited to attend the ceremony.

At 9 o'clock, the ceremony officially began, Chairman Jiang and his wife led the military and political officials into the Zhongshan Sacrifice Hall, military music was played, salutes were fired, 101 rings, everyone sang the national anthem Qingyun Song, and saluted to the statue of Mr., and paid a three-minute silence to the soldiers who died in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the officers and soldiers of the Allied Army, and the compatriots who died.

At 10:30 a.m., more than 20,000 people gathered in front of the Great Hall, and the Jiang family and his wife appeared on the rostrum, and Chairman Jiang delivered a generous speech.

In the afternoon, a May Five tea party was held, and many people got Mrs. Jiang's autograph of "Victory and Return", Shen Mengxi was bitten by a snake and did not dare to move forward.

She glanced at the green tiles of the newly trimmed Meiling Palace, and paced slightly to relieve the pain in her legs.

"What's wrong?"

"I'm tired, I want to go."

"Okay, the ceremony is over, I'll accompany you."
