Zhu Xu faced his somewhat aggressive question, so he had to hide it and said: "I really don't have any difficulties personally, but considering that everyone has worked hard for almost a year, they should stop and live a stable year, so it's just..."

Nan Binghuai accosted at this time: "I know that what Xiao Zhu said also reflects the psychology of many people here. Actually, even I want to stop and take a good rest and accompany my lover and family to have a reunion. However, when I think of the people of the whole country who are looking forward to this great project, will the sense of mission and the great pressure on me make me feel at home for the New Year? I admit that we are very ordinary people, but since the country is entrusted with this important task in our hands, then we can't be like many ordinary people who have children and wives at home, but like those comrades who stick to their jobs during the festival, abandon their small families for everyone, forge ahead, and be willing to devote their blood to the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. So, can we still care about a Chinese New Year? ”

Zhu Xu's eyes couldn't help but moisten, and he immediately took the lead in applauding.

Other colleagues turned their eyes to him at the same time, and applauded warmly together under his inspiration.

When the meeting ended, Nan Binghuai specially reminded Zhu Xu: "You come to my office." ”

Zhu Xu hesitated, but obediently followed behind him.

When he arrived at the office, Nan Binghuai first sat back in his place, and then motioned to Zhu Xu, who was a little dazed: "Why are you stunned?" Sit down! ”

Zhu Xu had no choice but to sit opposite him, with a sincere and frightened expression: "I'm sorry... I shouldn't have said anything at the meeting..."

Nan Binghuai waved his hand at him: "The purpose of my coming to you is not to criticize your speech at the meeting. After all, your words represent the sentiments of most of your colleagues. Since the formation of our team, many of them, especially colleagues who are not at home, have rarely gone home for a reunion. So, your suggestion is completely reasonable. ”

Zhu Xu was stunned: "Are you looking for me for something else?" ”

"No, that's it."

"Oh?"

Zhu Xu's eyes flickered, and he stopped talking.

Nan Binghuai hesitated for a moment before he said in a tentative tone: "I want to leave you behind for the time being and continue to do some related work in Northern Qi." ”

Zhu Xu's eyelids suddenly jumped, and the whole person also jumped up: "How can this work?" ”

Nan Binghuai tilted his head up, with a calm expression: "Why not?" ”

"I'm a core member of our team, why don't you go to the front line of the Tianyan project? By keeping me in the base camp, you're simply taking a back seat. ”

"See what you say? Leaving you in this base camp can also serve the Tianyan Project, how can you say that you will take a back seat? ”

"The core of our work will be at the site of the Tianyan Project in the future, but I, as a core member, am far away from the work site, how can I be regarded as the front line of work?"

Nan Binghuai's gaze looked at him for a moment, and finally turned into a trace of gloom: "Xiao Zhu, I also hope that you will play the most critical role in the key position." But... Your jade beads can't live without you. Didn't you just want to stay and take care of her? ”

Zhu Xu's expression fell into a solemnity: "I know that Yuzhu needs me, but our Tianyan Project needs me even more." How can I not charge for my country at this time? If I hold back for my own selfish desires, what will my colleagues think of me? What does Yuzhu think of me? Besides, Yuzhu is currently being taken care of by Aunt Zhang, what else can I not let go? ”

Nan Binghuai looked worried: "But Yuzhu has reached the critical period of pregnancy, especially at the moment of childbirth, if you are thousands of miles away in Qianxi, I am afraid it will be too late to rush back." ”

Zhu Xu pretended to smile lightly: "What's this?" Could it be that Yuzhu wouldn't have children without me by his side? Besides, from ancient times to the present, there are many stories of wives who have given birth to children when their husbands are not around.

Nan Binghuai's expression was a little tangled: "Have you thought about it?" ”

Zhu Xu's attitude was very resolute: "I think about it!" ”

Nan Binghuai pondered for a moment: "You go home tonight and discuss it with Yuzhu, and listen to her opinion." ”

Zhu Xu immediately said: "There is no need to discuss at all, she will support me." ”

Nan Binghuai was cautious: "You better understand her situation, after all, she suffers from hypoglycemia, so she is a high-risk pregnant woman, right?" It has reached this critical juncture, and her own feelings should be respected. Well, I'll go home tonight and listen to your Aunt Zhang's opinion. ”

Zhu Xu couldn't insist on his opinion anymore, so he nodded: "Okay." ”

That night, Nan Binghuai took the unit's special car back to his home after a long absence. It can be said that this description is not too much at all, since the last time he came back to Yang Qiming's house as a guest, it has been more than three months, and in such a long stage, he has only gone home three times, and the most recent time he went home has been more than a month now.

Because Nan Binghuai notified his wife in advance, Zhang Meina had already been 'ready for battle', and almost the moment Nan Binghuai rang the doorbell, she opened the door that made Nan Binghuai extremely close.

Zhang Meina leaned out of it with an earnest expression: "You're back?" ”

"Well, you're back early?"

Zhang Meina smiled: "I know you can't come back early, so I made dinner for Yuzhu before coming back." ”

"Oh, so you've been home for a short time?"

Zhang Meina's expression was very casual: "Well, I just finished our dinner for less than half an hour, and it's still steaming." ”

Nan Binghuai's eyebrows pulled down, and he walked into the door without saying a word.

The first thing he felt was a burst of heat.

"Mina, why is it so hot at home?"

Zhang Meina replied while closing the door behind him: "It's been heating for more than a month, can the house not be hot?" I remember the last time you came home there was no heating, and you kept yelling that it was too cold in the house, and suggested that I buy an electric heater to relieve it. ”

Nan Binghuai's heart was shocked, and he secretly said in his heart, the Spring Festival will be in another month, and if he doesn't come back, I'm afraid this winter will pass.

"Mina, I'm really sorry, I..."

Zhang Meina smiled: "You're late again today." ”

Nan Binghuai was stunned: "Are you mistaken?" I'm going home. ”

"Hehe, you're glad you're not mistaken. I'm kidding you. ”

Nan Binghuai smiled embarrassedly: "I know that I don't pay enough attention to home, so I make you laugh." ”

Unexpectedly, Zhang Meina's nose was sour: "What are you talking about... I... It's too late for my heart to ache..."

Nan Binghuai stared at his tearful wife in surprise: "Mina, what are you doing here?" ”

Zhang Meina raised her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes: "Binghuai, please answer me, what is home to us?" ”

Nan Binghuai pondered: "People often say that home is the harbor of life. ”

"What about you?"

Nan Binghuai suddenly stared at her with a deep gaze: "For me, you are my warmest harbor. ”

Zhang Meina's eyes were already full of tears: "But... You've been out of the harbor for a long time... Aren't you tired? ”

Nan Binghuai reluctantly concealed a smile: "Of course I'm tired, but this is my job, if you want to do a good job, you must give up one head." ”

"Binghuai, since you have not been able to rest in your own harbor for a long time, you must be physically and mentally exhausted, can I still laugh?"

Nan Binghuai finally understood her meaning, and couldn't help but be moved: "Mina, thank you for your understanding." ”

Zhang Meina didn't want to 'sensationalize' with him anymore, but pointed in the direction of the restaurant with her hand: "You must be hungry, right?" Hurry up and eat. ”

Nan Binghuai took two more steps in the direction of the restaurant with his previous curiosity, and a table of steaming food was presented in front of him-

Nan Binghuai looked at the table full of delicacies and was suddenly stunned. You must know that he didn't notify his wife to go home until after three o'clock in the afternoon, and Zhang Meina was still at Dou Yuzhu's house at that time. And she was able to take care of Dou Yuzhu and go home non-stop to arrange this table of dishes, and the hard work can be imagined.

"Mina... You really... It's so hard..."

Nan Binghuai, who had always remained calm just now, was finally moved by the fruits of his wife's hard work at this time.

Zhang Meina couldn't help but feel hot in her heart when she saw that her hard-working table of meals had moved her wife to tears, and her undried eyes couldn't help but burst into tears.

"What are you excited about? It's hard to go back to your own harbor, shouldn't you let yourself be a little more luxurious? Besides, no matter how hard I work, I can't compare to you. My job is to take care of you who don't take care of you often. But what you are shouldering is the burden given by the country, and you are the one who really suffers! ”

Nan Binghuai couldn't help but be excited in the face of his wife's posture, and greeted each other emotionally.

Zhang Meina stared at him with affectionate eyes, and when he got close to him, she couldn't help but raise her right hand and put it on his neck, and tidy up the irregular clothes.

Nan Binghuai did not have a deeper level of passionate action, for him, the body and mind were really tired, even if he had affection in his heart, but he showed that he was powerless. Besides, he has already passed the years of passion, and he can't enjoy the romance that only those young people can perform. He is like a good child, allowing his wife to keep him warm.

"Binghuai, don't be stunned, if you don't move the chopsticks, this table should be really cold."

Nan Binghuai suppressed a deeper emotion, glanced back at the delicious food on the table, and spit out a few words in his mouth: "Okay, let's eat!" ”
