On 19 June 1982, the CPC Central Committee decided to unify the three types of armed police, border defense, and fire fighting that currently practice military service throughout the country, together with the internal security units received by the PLA, to form the "Chinese People's Armed Police Force," which was implemented nationwide in January 1983.

At this time, Tang Xiaoxiao's intermediary agency had already opened several chain stores in the urban area of Beijing.

Including Peng Yu, Xu Zeming and Xu Wei, who graduated from Beijing University, have become the sales elite of the agency.

He Xiaoqian and Song Xiaolan, who also graduated from university, became people's teachers.

This day is the weekend, and it is also the day when Tang Xiaoxiao and Song Jingzhi take their children to the social welfare institute every month.

A year ago, Aunt Xie's deeds were publicized in the newspaper, and at this time, the state was stepping up rescue and management of abandoned children.

The head of the Social Welfare Section of the Civil Affairs Bureau approached Aunt Xie and hoped that she could serve as the director of the Children's Welfare Institute.

Glancing at the six children beside her, Aunt Xie readily agreed.

Pingping and An An have been getting along well with the children in the welfare home for a year, and they share the snacks they bring with each child.

Aunt Xie saw them coming, with a smile on her face.

Subsequently, Tang Xiaoxiao and Song Jingzhi changed into social workers' clothes and played games with the children.

Under the influence of Aunt Xie and Tang Xiaoxiao, some military wives such as Yao Li and Li Min often come over to take care of the children and play games with the children.

"In the past year or so, thanks to you, the children have changed a lot." Aunt Xie came over and said to Tang Xiaoxiao.

When she took over the orphanage a year ago, the children screamed at strangers.

But since Tang Xiaoxiao and the others came, their company allowed the children to open their hearts to strangers, and children who were not too sick would smile at those who came to visit them.

"I brought some clothes and books for the kids this time." Tang Xiaoxiao said with a smile.

Aunt Xie glanced at her and patted her hand to express her gratitude.

The state has a subsidy policy for welfare homes, but there are too many children in welfare homes, especially clothes, most of which are donated from the society.

Although this era has gone through difficult years, people can also ensure their own food and clothing at most.

Therefore, Tang Xiaoxiao's gifts are rare for the children, and Aunt Xie did not refuse.

In 1994, Song Jingzhi was the third year of his tenure as the commander of the Beijing Fire Bureau, and this year was also the time for the twins to take the college entrance examination.

At this time, Tang Mu served as the commander of the special combat team and was responsible for the selection of special forces across the country.

It was the day of the selection, and he saw a familiar figure in the crowd, this person stood in the special recruitment team.

It is no surprise that this person passed all the indicators, and even the first place in this selection, and it was not until the end of the selection that he called the person to the office.

"Chief." Someone came to salute him, and from today he will be a member of the special combat team.

Because his parents wanted him to take the college entrance examination, he didn't tell his family from the time he signed up to the time he was specially recruited.

"Song Tingxuan, you are quite bold, you came to participate in the special forces selection behind your parents' back, how do you tell me to explain to your parents?" Tang Mu pointed at him, it turned out that this person was Pingping, who was supposed to take the college entrance examination.

"Uncle, I want to participate in it myself, and I've already chosen."

"You." Tang Mu supported his forehead, this kid didn't reveal his intention of joining the army in front of his family at all.

"Uncle, my wish since I was a child was to be a soldier like you and my father." Song Tingxuan looked at him with a firm look in his eyes.

When Tang Mu returned to the Song family with Pingping, who had changed into a military uniform, and was about to accept the criticism of his sister and brother-in-law, the two of them knew the same as they had known for a long time.

"Since you have chosen, you must be worthy of this military uniform, the country and the people." Song Jingzhi looked at his son.

"Guaranteed to get the job done." Song Tingxuan gave a military salute to his father.

Song Jingzhi returned a military salute, and then patted him on the shoulder, "You are my pride." ”

"It's also a mother's pride." Tang Xiaoxiao looked at him with a smile.

As a parent, the child's thoughts can't be guessed, so from the beginning he signed up for the army, and both of them knew it, but they didn't break it.

An'an studied economics at Kyoto University, and after graduating, he took over the agency.

After that, she not only expanded the real estate agency to the whole country, but also dabbled in real estate development, and the business was done nationwide.

In 2018, the national firefighting team ushered in a new chapter, and the firefighters held a flag-awarding ceremony and a dress-up ceremony.

The color is changing from "olive green" to "flame blue", but what remains unchanged is the determination to be loyal to the party and disciplined.

The firefighters have been replaced by firefighters, and the title is changing, but what remains unchanged is the mission of going to the soup and fighting the fire and serving the people wholeheartedly.

At this time, Song Jingzhi, who had retired, was also specially invited, changed into a flame blue firefighting suit, and participated in the award ceremony.

When she came out of the fire department, Tang Xiaoxiao was waiting for him at the door, just like when she waited for him to come home at home all these years, with a smile on her face.

Although they were now in their old age, he took her hand and squeezed her face, just as they had been when they were younger.

The two walked side by side on the way home, and they had been living in the courtyard house all these years, which was the first house with the names of both of them, and it was their home.

"Wife, in this life, you gave up your career to guard this home, thank you!"

"Brother, you are my career."

At sunset, two white-haired old men snuggled up and walked on the street, their love may be ordinary, but it is unforgettable.

You have spent your life guarding the country, and I have spent my life guarding you. ———— Tang Xiaoxiao

The seven-foot body has promised the country, and the idealistic Xu Qing. ———— Song Jingzhi
