823. Winter Vacation

Before the opening of the meeting, Howe was no exception, and the chief made a speech.

The first to speak was Division Commander Lu, who affirmed the victory the night before yesterday and commended many soldiers who had performed well and made meritorious contributions in this battle.

After that, Commander Jiang made a speech, and what he said was nothing more than holiday condolences to the soldiers to defend their homes and defend the country here for the New Year.

Every time Commander Jiang spoke before, it was to boost morale before the war, and he was righteous and stern, sonorous and powerful, which made people ambitious, he was dignified and unsmiling, and now, he was still concise and to the point, but the expression on his face was much softer, and his words were also warm, and Commander Jiang at this time was not like a majestic chief, but more like a kind and kind elder.

Then Master Lu asked Chen Yifan to say a few words to everyone, but Chen Yifan refused, he said: "Needless to say, everyone is facing this big pot of braised pork, just listen to our endless speeches, I can't help it, I'm afraid how much saliva I swallowed secretly!" Let's let everyone eat braised pork quickly. ”

So the speech was over, and everyone began to eat.

There was no banquet without wine, Xiao Li brought a large jar of wine over and poured some for everyone.

Everyone let go and drank to their heart's content, and when they dispersed, they were more or less slightly drunk.

Especially Jiang Xiaodong, he stumbled a little when he walked.

Chen Yifan, Zhao Xiaoling and his brother sent him back together, Jiang Xiaodong kept holding Zhao Xiaoling's hand and said: "I'm fine, Xiaoling, I'm happy, really happy, every time I used to spend the New Year alone, I spent it alone outside, and now, you are back, you and your brother came here to accompany me for the New Year, and our family will be reunited for a New Year."

He also babbled a lot, "Xiaoling, I always thought that I was a soldier, over the years, I have worked hard and worthy of my heart, but I am not a good husband, not a good father, I am sorry for your mother, sorry for you, and sorry for your brother, whenever in the dead of night, I think of this, I am very ashamed!" I know that I am responsible for your mother's death, and the biggest mistake in my life is that I shouldn't believe Liu Lihong......"

Jiang Xiaodong said, his eyes were moist.

"Dad, don't say it, everything is over, you are also unintentional, you are for more people, so you can't take care of the family, your mother won't blame you."

"But I can't forgive myself, when I think that your mother may have been killed by Liu Lihong, I think I am an accomplice, when your mother was alive, she once began to suspect Liu Lihong, but I didn't believe her, but I believed in Liu Lihong, and married her, thinking of this, my heart hurts, I can't breathe, Xiaoling, and you, you have been living outside for all these years, and you have suffered so much, you blame me......"

"Dad, don't say it, I don't blame you, really, it's all because of Liu Lihong, she has done so many unconscionable things, now, she has been retributed, she is very miserable, she can't stay in the city, she ran to the suburbs, she is not in good health, she has no job, she is poor, although she is alive, she is also living a down-and-out life, and it is not much better than death."

Zhao Xiaoling and the others sent Jiang Xiaodong to his residence and made sobering soup for him to drink.

Jiang Xiaodong's orderly Xiao Li said puzzledly: "It's really strange today, how can Commander Jiang get drunk like this, he drank more than this before, and he wasn't drunk."
