Chapter 398: A Born Soldier

Lin Tong held back a fire in his heart, these people are always like this, when they are short of money, they think of Zhenhua, and they usually don't regard him as their own son at all......

Thinking of this, she slowly frowned, thinking of Xu Fengzhi's identity, she pulled her mother and asked her about what happened to the Xu family before, "...... Xiao Nian's grandmother really said that she was Xu Fengzhi's real mother? What about Xu Fengzhi's father? Haven't you heard that the old lady is remarried? ”

Xu Xiaowan didn't know, she stroked her hair and thought about the rumors that came out of the village at that time, "No one knows what is going on." I heard that your second brother came back to study, saying that Xu Fengzhi went back to show off, and said that she was the adopted daughter of the Xu family, and the Xu family treated her badly, and she didn't care about it, maybe she didn't speak well, and the words were that the Xu family treated her badly, and wanted to exchange her for food, and she was not kind, and she made your mother-in-law anxious......"

Xu Xiaowan recalled what her son said to her at the time, "I don't know what I said when I was arguing, someone happened to go to the door, and I heard their quarrel outside the door, saying that the old lady said it at the time, I knew that she was so bad, she beat her off when she was in her stomach, or she drowned in the toilet when she was born, or she should have thrown her back to the mountain to feed the wolf, anyway, there was nothing good to say, and said that she came from the old lady's belly, even if she found her father, don't think that she climbed a high branch, her mother is no one else, It's the person she's dealing with now......"

Xu Xiaowan thought about it carefully, shook her head and said: "Later, the old man in the village came forward to confirm that your mother-in-law and your father-in-law were married outside, and later came back with Xiao Nian and his aunt, and she was still pregnant with Zhenhua in her stomach at that time. Your father-in-law has been away from the village for many years, and your father-in-law told the old people in the village that this child was born after they got married outside......"

Lin Tong listened silently and asked coldly: "Did you say Zhenhua in the rumors?" ”

Xu Xiaowan shook her head and said, "No." She sighed, "It seems that your father-in-law helped your mother-in-law hide her life experience, but I don't know if her aunt and your mother-in-law, who said it is true?" ”

Xu Fengzhi said that her biological mother was gone, which was confirmed by Mr. Wang himself.

But Mrs. Xu said that she was Xu Fengzhi's own mother, and that she was arrested a few days after she got married, and later she found out that she was pregnant, and when the child was two years old, someone in the same village came back and said that she saw her man die, and she later remarried Mr. Xu......

Lin Tong doesn't want to know the truth about these bad things, she just annoys that her family always treats them as fools, and when she comes back to the telegram, she doesn't know what happened to her, which makes people feel uncomfortable when she thinks about it.

"Forget it, Zhenhua is not at home anyway, what's the matter anyway, there are two sons at home!" If there is really something important, such as being seriously ill and asking for money, the telegram will say it, but now they only say that there is something but do not mention anything, how can they have the time to go back to it.

Really, when they are all idle, they are always on call?

Xu Xiaowan persuaded her a few words, seeing that she was not very happy, and knew that she was worried about Zhenhua's change of career, so she didn't squeak, thinking that maybe it was really nothing serious, or no one from the two of them would have a letter to tell her?

Xu Zhenhua changed trains overnight, and when he entered the capital, he learned that the old general had been hospitalized with a sudden illness the day before.

He was very uneasy and worried, and accompanied by the officers who came to pick him up at the station, he went to the ward of the old cadres of the military hospital, and outside the ward, there were many soldiers in military uniforms standing or sitting, and it seemed that they had all come to visit the old general.

After a while, the door opened, and the old general let him in, and as he entered, a doctor passed by, and whispered: "Don't let the general get emotional, and it is better to follow his wishes." ”

Xu Zhenhua entered the ward with some apprehension, only to find that the old general, who had always been strong and tough, had a gray face and was lying on the bed, thin like an old man on the verge of death.

He felt very sad in his heart, the old general was too strong in the past, and he always made him forget that he was an old man who was close to seventy.

His throat was slightly blocked, he stepped forward to salute a military salute, and his mouth snorted for a long time before he called out, "General, I'm here." ”

The old man opened his eyes, although his body was about to die, but the unwilling light in his eyes made Xu Zhenhuazhen's heart even more uneasy.

The old man's eyes moved away from him to look at a soldier standing aside, who stepped forward and said to Xu Zhenhua: "Commander Xu, the old general fell ill yesterday, and he transferred you to the capital because he wanted you to withdraw your application for transfer......

Xu Zhenhua knew it in his heart, and sure enough, for this matter, he was afraid that he would not only withdraw his application, but also want to scold him severely!

Seeing the old general like this, he couldn't help but feel sad in his heart, and the shots of him scolding himself again and again flashed in his mind, as if these scenes were just yesterday.

As he severely scolded himself again and again, his status was raised again and again, until this time, the old general wanted to scold, but he couldn't scold anymore...... His face slowly showed a smile, and he would rather the old general scold him as a "stinky boy" like before......

The old general opened his mouth with difficulty: "Boy...... You, born to eat this bowl of rice, promise me, don't, don't change jobs easily, you should, you are born a soldier......"

At such a time, the old general did not forget to tell him, although Xu Zhenhua was used to seeing life and death, but at this moment his eyes were red, "General, I ......"

What am I? The words of refusal came to his lips, looking at such an old man, how could he bear to say it? But if he promised, he would break his promise to Lin Tong, and he promised her......

Seeing his hesitant expression, the old general was very disappointed, "Why do you want to change jobs?" ”

Hearing his difficult question, Xu Zhenhua lowered his head and said guiltily: "I want to live a peaceful life with my daughter-in-law and children." ”

The old general was even more disappointed when he heard this, "Have you forgotten those comrades-in-arms who died in battle?" Have you forgotten that the army has cultivated you? You ......" He panted hard, but he couldn't speak anymore, and Xu Zhenhua didn't dare to look up at his disappointed gaze.

Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been difficult to achieve, although it is different from his situation, but there are similarities.

Promised to be embarrassed, should not be embarrassed, Xu Zhenhua looked up, just in time to see the unwilling and disappointed tears in the corner of the old man's eyes, "You are a natural soldier, how can you ......"

Seeing the old man so excited, Xu Zhenhua couldn't bear it, he stepped forward to support the old man's body that was about to sit up because of excitement, and the light touch of his upper hand made his heart tremble, "General, don't get excited, I won't change jobs, just change jobs, don't get excited, you must take care of your body!" ”

This was said so naturally, he was stunned for a moment after he finished speaking, but seeing the relieved look on the old man's face, he couldn't say anything else anyway.

Coming out of the ward, he was still in a daze, with a wry smile on the corner of his mouth, no matter what his choice was, I was afraid that one party would always be disappointed.

In fact, Xu Zhenhua never thought that not changing jobs does not mean that he has to go to the battlefield.

His sense of sacred responsibility and mission for soldiers made him either one or two in his mind, so he didn't think about the symbiosis in the middle at all.

He stayed in the capital for three days, visited Zhang Yonghua's parents-in-law, visited the workshop, bought gifts for several partners, and even got together with his comrades-in-arms from the military academy who stayed in the capital.

Every afternoon, he would go to the hospital to visit the old man's home, and it was not until three days later that the hospital said that the old man's condition had stabilized and that he would slowly recuperate in the future, and he returned home under the repeated urging of the old man.

When parting, the old man said: "I am sick, I am already going through the formalities of retreating, I can't help you with anything in the future, fortunately, the matter of your daughter-in-law and brother has been investigated, and it should be officially written these days, you go back and tell your daughter-in-law, don't worry about it in the future." You have a good development in the army, I want to see, how far can you go? ”

This is the old man's expectation of him, and he solemnly nodded and saluted, "I will live up to your high expectations." ”

Since you have chosen, you must move forward.

Xu Zhenhua hadn't figured out how to balance the relationship between them, and as soon as he returned to the army, he received an official notice that he would be transferred to the front line.

Not only him, but also several soldiers from other units who went on a mission with him last time were on the list.

The reason is that they have a wealth of experience and a high level of military literacy.

That's really a good reason.

It's just that if he doesn't change jobs and don't leave the army, he can't refuse such an order.

Moreover, this time unlike the last time, he was relieved of the post of commander of a regiment, and the new post was reappointed to the front.

That is, he may not return to the 1st regiment after the war, or even to this military division.

For him, this kind of thing is commonplace, and he used to follow orders without worry, but now, he has more worries, and when he leaves, what will happen to his wife and children?

Is it to stay here and wait for news from him? Or do you want to leave here and settle somewhere else temporarily?

However, he didn't have more time to arrange things at home. Better than last time, give him three days to say goodbye to his family.

Three days? He will be very late when he gets home today, and he has to return from home to the military sub-district, and he will not even be able to get along with Lin Tong for two days.

Because he was calculated by Li Zhigang and Jiang Wenqing and Deputy Commander Jiang before, he had a conspiracy theory in his heart first, and this time it wouldn't be that someone wanted to calculate him, right?

But Deputy Commander Jiang has already retreated, Li Zhigang? No, he doesn't have that ability yet.

But the order to send him to the battlefield was really too accurate, he just promised the general not to change jobs, the general has just retired, how do you think there is a story in the middle?

I couldn't figure it out, I didn't think about it for the time being, he looked at the sky outside the car that was getting dark, and thought a little distressed how to explain to Lin Tong about his going to the battlefield when he got home?

He's going to break his promise to her again.

She was frightened again and again, but he could only say "sorry" to her again and again, and this kind of guilt was impossible for others to understand.
