Chapter 216 Boom 216 The craziest one, except Chu Yuan...

Xiao Xiao bit into the sweet and sour tomatoes, and after listening to what she said, she sighed: "It sounds like your production team is quite wealthy. ”

overturned her impression of rural areas in the central region.

She used to think that life in rural areas in coastal cities was better than in other areas. They lived close to the sea and the government also allowed production teams to go fishing at sea, and the profits from the fish were shared by the collective.

Production teams like those close to the Southern Military Region can not only set up stalls in nearby markets, but can even directly supply fish to the troops, all at market prices.

"It has only developed slowly in the past two years. In the past few years, several educated youths went to the countryside to help the team grow cash crops." Gu Qingqing opened her mouth and bit down the green dates she handed her, and said, "Now the team We built a brick kiln, planted fruit trees, and contacted the brick factory to supply them with red bricks. The capable young men on the team earned work points at the end of the year, which was no worse than the workers in the state-owned factories in the city."

Xiao Xiao knew that Gu Qingqing would not tell lies and deliberately exaggerate . , but still a little unbelievable: "The first-level workers who are apprenticed in the state-owned factory should also earn twenty-five or six yuan."

"Yes, the strong and hard-working young men in our production team all have this income. My cousin Gu Xiong Last year, the average monthly income was thirty-seven or eighty-eight, but he had to do a lot of work every day. The other brothers only had twenty-seven or eighty-eight at most."

"...!" Xiao Xiao really couldn't imagine it. Before, she thought that the conditions of the Gu family were better than those in other rural areas. It's better. Unexpectedly, the average living standard of their production team is pretty good.

"I mainly rely on cash crops, and all my income comes from here." Gu Qingqing rubbed the fish body with salt and said to the stunned girl: "Help me lift it, it has to be marinated in the kitchen for three or four days. "

Okay." Xiao Xiao came to her senses, put the bowl of red tomatoes on the ground next to her, and carried the pot with her.

After they finished, the dining table was cleared by Gu Canyang and Gu Qinglie. Gu Canyang swept the floor, Gu Qinglie washed the dishes, and Mr. Qin and Chu Yuan were practicing calligraphy in the study, getting ready for a lunch break.

"Do you want to take a lunch break?" Gu Qingqing said sheepishly: "Why don't you go to the study and tell Uncle Qin to look for the photo album before he takes a lunch break? Otherwise, you won't be able to disturb him in the study at will during the rest of the time."

Qin Zhou is now Living in the study, Chu Dai and Chu Zhao didn't know where to move a large wooden bed. Fortunately, the study was big enough, with good light, and it was comfortable to live in.

"Okay, let's go look for it." Xiao Xiao agreed happily.

Knocking on the door first, a voice came from inside, "Come in."

Gu Qingqing pushed the door open and went in. She saw Mr. Qin practicing calligraphy, and she stared at it for a moment.

His calligraphy is flowing and flowing, with a certain free and easy atmosphere, and is eclectic.

There is also a word next to it, which penetrates the back of the paper and is very elegant.

If I hadn't seen what Mr. Qin had written, I would have thought that the other one was his.

Qin Zhou smiled and said, "Do you think this calligraphy should belong to your father?"

Gu Qingqing nodded and said sheepishly, "You usually seem to be a very self-restrained person, but I didn't expect your handwriting to be so free and easy.

" It's a scribble." Chu Yuan, who was standing next to him, corrected him with his hands behind his back.

"This old man was crazier than me when he was young. Don't look at how fake and polite he is now, but he is very proud at heart."

Mr. Qin smiled elegantly and put down his brush: "Don't believe what your father said. Say the most important thing." Crazy, there is no one else but him, Chu Yuan."

Gu Qingqing was convinced that her father's life experience was legendary, and he was extremely affectionate.

I heard from Chu Zhao that every Chinese Valentine's Day, he would sit in front of his mother's grave for a day. Ever since Chu Dai was a child, people have been trying to be matchmakers for him. At that time, he was an army commander.

Let alone a son, even if you have four or five sons, there are still a lot of good girls rushing to marry him.

He refused simply, saying that he would never marry again in this life and would only have one son, Chu Dai.

Chu Dai looked down on other aspects of his father, such as his temper and personality, but he really had no choice in this aspect.

Xiao Xiao also bent over and looked over: "Uncle Qin, have you and Uncle Chu fought before?"

She had never heard her family mention this.

Her father, Xiao Hui, only met Chu Yuan in the military area. At that time, one was a brigade commander and the other was an army commander.

Now there is a military commander and a commander.

Mr. Qin also met in the military region. He stayed in the military region for several years eighteen years ago and was later transferred.

I have come back often over the years to see him. He has a special status and it is not difficult to enter and leave the military area.

The relationship between Xiao Hui and Mr. Qin is not deep, and it is difficult to know their past.

When Chu Dai was a child, he often stayed at the house of his uncle who had a good relationship with Chu Yuan. He heard all about Chu Yuan's heroic deeds and embarrassing stories, and also knew all about his grievances and grievances with Qin Zhou.

Therefore, when Mr. Qin heard the little girl's question, he looked at Chu Yuan, and they both shook their heads and smiled at the same time.

Gu Qingqing, who knew the whole story, also pursed her lips and snickered.

"We fought before," Mr. Qin said calmly, "I lost, but we joined forces later."

Before the fight, I never thought that a commander could be so poor, with not even a grain of food in the army.

Chu Yuan told him at that time: "If you hadn't come to rob me, I would have led my troops up the mountain to rob you of food."

Later, the two poor men joined forces to attack the enemy's headquarters, robbed the food and weapons, and accidentally hit each other. Smash the enemy's siege plan and render them unable to counterattack.

Later, he defected to the revolution and served the country.

Recalling the past, the two old men were very calm.

The sun shone in outside the window. Gu Qingqing thought for a moment and said, "Uncle Qin, Dad, can I ask you two to write a message for Tuantuan every year? I want to hang it in their room."

"Of course. Okay." Mr. Qin nodded with a smile, and Chu Yuan also agreed.

Not to mention one piece, as long as his grandson likes it, it can fill the whole room.

Seeing that they agreed, Gu Qingqing carefully made another request, "Dad, A'dai said he had a lot of photos when he was a child. I don't know where they were received. They may be in the study. Can I look for them?"

Mr. Qin said clearly. He also had an impression, and said to Chu Yuan next to him: "I also took a few photos with him, when he was four years old. I seem to have a negative there."

Chu Yuan was silent for a while, and did not ask her why she was looking for it. The photo of Chu Dai as a child just said: "Follow me."

Gu Qingqing and Xiao Xiao looked at each other and followed.

Mr. Qin walked out unhurriedly.

Chu Yuan returned to his bedroom. The window was open, and the strong sunlight outside shone brightly on the room.

He walked to the bed, bent down and opened the bedside table drawer, and found a photo album in his hand.

Without looking through it, he handed it to Gu Qingqing who followed him: "There are not many photos. There are a lot of empty ones. It's up to you to fill up the rest."

Gu Qingqing took it in a daze, with the heavy photo album lying on it. Palm, right hand slowly opened.

What came into view was a handsome young man and a gentle young woman.

She recognized at a glance that this was her father when he was young.

Chu Yuan had clear eyes, was wearing a straight military uniform, and looked majestic.

The gentle woman is sitting on a chair, wearing a buttoned cheongsam, with her hands folded on her legs, looking at the camera with a smile, and there seems to be a spring between her eyebrows.

The man stood behind her, his right hand resting on her shoulder domineeringly, possessively, and his other bony hand resting casually on the back of the chair.

That unruly energy can be seen through the photos.

Looking at the photo, she finally understood why Chu Dai was born so well, and why his mother-in-law, a wealthy socialite, was willing to marry a warlord and a ruffian.

Xiao Xiao was also amazed by this old photo. There was no bright color, but she could feel the surge of love between the two people.

After taking a long time to move her eyes away, Gu Qingqing slowly turned her head back.

The second picture is a photo of Chu Yuan holding the horse, and the cheongsam woman sitting sideways on the horse, lowering her head and talking to him.

He was obviously carried up temporarily by someone, and his legs were covered with a man's military jacket.

All the tenderness in the woman's brows was given to the man in front of her.

The third photo is the first photo of father and son together.

Chu Dai, who was only two years old, had resistance written all over his body. Next to him was a man with a cold face. The cold faces of father and son were very similar.

This is probably the group photo of Chu Dai's uncles. They took the father and son out alone and took a photo.

The fourth picture is a group photo. Gu Qingqing found Mr. Qin and Chu Zhan. Xiao Xiao looked at it for a long time and wondered: "This seems to be the Southern Military Region. Why don't you see my dad?"

Chu Yuan took a look and said, He said calmly: "Your father was at that level and was only qualified to take pictures."

Mr. Qin also smiled gently: "Your father is not as smart as you. It took him a long time to figure out how to use a camera."

Xiao Xiao grinned: "Then I have to go back Ask him if he still remembers this."

Chu Yuan almost didn't appear again later. There were more photos of Chu Dai, which were all taken by his uncles, many of whom have now been transferred out of the Southern Military Region.

Gu Qingqing has met many of them. At her and Chu Dai's wedding, the remaining ones who didn't come will really not be able to come.

As Chu Yuan said, there were blank photo pages at the back. Gu Qingqing was filled with emotion after reading it and returned the album to Chu Yuan.

The man frowned at her.

"Dad," she said after thinking for a moment, "you are the head of the family, so I'd better leave this photo album to you for safekeeping."

Chu Yuan looked at her for a long time, with relief in his eyes, and nodded.

Holding the photo album, it’s like waiting for a treasure.

Gu Qingqing felt a little sad. The first two photos were probably her father's only thoughts. The photo pages were yellowed and slightly curled. It was obvious that they were often read, but they were carefully cared for.

She held back the bitterness in her eyes and said, "Dad, let's take a family photo in two days."

"Okay." Chu Yuan rested his palms on the hard cover of the album, feeling emotions surge in his heart.

If you were still here, you would be full of descendants now.

Gu Qingqing said hello to her father and Mr. Qin, and led Xiao Xiao out of the bedroom.

She took two bottles of canned fruit from the living room cabinet and handed one to Xiao Xiao.

Xiao Xiao unscrewed it and handed it back to her naturally. Gu Qingqing took it and put another bottle in her hand.

The two of them went to the kitchen to get spoons, one leaning on the stove and the other leaning on the door panel, looking at each other in silence.

In the end, it was Xiao Xiao who spoke first: "I used to think that Uncle Chu was too cruel to A'dai, and his attitude was the same as treating his enemies." Now it seems that this is not the case at all. Uncle Chu has been suppressing the complicated feelings in his heart.

Gu Qingqing scooped up a spoonful of yellow peach chunks, brought it to her mouth, and nodded: "Dad loves him very much."

Chapter 217 Boom 217 Ice needs fire to melt.

"Old Chu and Uncle Chu have quite similar personalities. It stands to reason that elders like children with temperaments like their own. Uncle Chu has gone the opposite way before," Xiao Xiao ate canned oranges, which were sour and sweet: "But before today, I really didn't see Uncle Chu's care for Lao Chu."

Gu Qingqing thought for a moment, then suddenly raised her head and asked, "Do you think it is? Because, dad doesn’t want him to be like me, but wants him to be like grandma?”

“I don’t know, I really can’t guess what Uncle Chu is thinking.” Xiao Xiao finished eating the can and asked her, “Do you want this bottle? You don't want me to put them outside."

"Yes, it's good to wash them and soak some pickled radish and pepper."

"Okay."

There were green dates and cherry tomatoes at home, and Gu Qingqing washed two portions. Gu Qinglie and Gu Canyang were watching TV, and she brought them over: "Brother, don't you guys take a nap?"

"We'll talk about it later." Gu Qinglie directly touched a small tomato and stuffed it into his mouth. The sour taste made him dizzy. Refreshing.

Gu Qingqing didn't care and went upstairs with Xiao Xiao.

On the third floor, two little guys crawled from the bed to the floor. Shen Sui mopped the wooden floor clean every day and let them do it.

The enamel bowl filled with fruit was placed on the desk. Gu Qingqing pulled up a chair for Xiao Xiao to sit on, and stood behind Shen Sui: "Did you say hello to your classmates today?"

Shen Sui shook his head, "I was just reading the new book. "

Xiao Xiao was so happy that she twisted a green date from the bowl, raised her head and said to Gu Qingqing, "You have a boy who loves to learn."

Gu Qingqing looked at the boy practicing calligraphy and asked with a smile, "Chu Dai used to Don't like studying?"

"It's his fault for being naughty, but his test scores are good every time. He and I are not in the same grade, and those kids are really making trouble." Speaking of this, Xiao Xiao smiled mysteriously: "But He has a weakness, that is, he is afraid of dogs. He was chased and bitten when he was a child, which left a shadow."

Gu Qingqing thought that when he first arrived at her home, he was even afraid of the little rice, and the rice passed by him wagging its tail and then fell asleep. Stiff and afraid to move.

She laughed out loud: "Can we raise dogs in the compound?"

"You want to? Yes, no problem. As long as you want to raise chickens, ducks, pigs, and dogs, there is nothing you can't raise." Xiao Xiao turned on the faucet and put the glass jar in Washed: "But Brother Chu is probably going to jump."

"Forget it, I haven't raised these two babies yet. By the way, is my second brother still watching TV there? Ask him to send the net bag to the collection Go to the stall at the end of the market and ask him to buy some perilla."

How can you cook fish at night without perilla?

I originally wanted to make spicy boiled fish fillets, but neither Shen Sui nor Xiao Xiao can tolerate spicy food very much, so I decided to make it lighter so that the two little guys can eat it without having to cook it separately.

Xiao Xiao turned the glass bottle upside down and shook off the water drops on his hand: "I might as well go by myself. I'll check if there are any fish left and buy some more. Don't you want your brother to take them to the Construction Corps?"

" That's right." Gu Qingqing thought about it and simply said: "Let's go together and I'll see if there are any shrimps. Don't we all like to eat shrimps? We'll cook some at night and dry the rest."

"Okay." Both of them did things neatly. Gu Qingqing picked up the vegetable basket and followed Xiao Xiao outside. The short-haired girl picked up the bamboo pole standing in the corner, picked up two net bags and followed.

There are a lot of fish dried at home, so you don’t need to buy too many, which are troublesome to handle, so just buy four or five fish for easy transportation.

The two of them walked out of the military area gate again and headed to the market.

It was still the same fish stall. When the stall owner saw them coming, he waved: "Comrade here."

Gu Qingqing couldn't help but smile and said: "Don't worry, remember that you own the stall and I won't defraud you of your net bag. "

"What are you talking about? Comrades from the military region, I believe it. Even if you don't have time to come here today, you will do the same next time."

Seeing Xiao Xiao put down the bamboo pole and net bag, Gu Qingqing's eyebrows curved, "You can weigh me five more Fish bar, are there any shrimps?" She looked into the foam box.

"Yes," the stall owner lowered his eyes and said, "I still have about seven or eight pounds. Do you want it? I'll give you a cheaper price."

"Okay, weigh all the shrimps for me." This side is close to the sea. Seafood is very cheap, and my sisters-in-law often buy fish and shrimp to eat. The main reason is that they don’t require meat tickets like pork, and there are many ways to make it.

I bought five pieces of sea fish, seven or eight pounds of shrimps, and some clams when I saw them.

Gu Qingqing went to the vegetable stall to pick out a handful of perilla and a handful of sauerkraut from the jar.

There are still some leftovers at noon, so I can cook some boiled fish in the evening, or at most some shrimps.

There was nothing left to buy. She caught a glimpse of a fruit stall next to her and asked the stall owner: "Auntie, what is this?"

The stall owner was a little surprised: "This is a mango, comrade, haven't you ever eaten it before?"

Gu Qingqing said embarrassedly: "No, this is the first time I've seen you." A white light flashed in her mind, as if she had eaten it on the island before? But she forgot.

But it's not this yellow color.

"What about this one with thorns

, auntie?" "Try a piece of pineapple." The stall owner heard her mouthful and the auntie called out enthusiastically, feeling comfortable. He took two pieces out of a salt water glass jar and gave one piece to She, the other piece is going to the girl in military uniform.

Xiao Xiao shook her head, "Auntie, I've eaten this before, so you don't need to give it to me."

"Okay."

Gu Qingqing took a bite. It was sour and sweet, with a unique taste. She said, "Then give me two pounds." Mango, can I have a pineapple?"

"Okay, I'll peel the pineapple for you, and you can go back and soak it in salt water before you eat it." The stall owner pulled out a plastic bag and asked her to pick the mango, and he picked up the scale beam next to it.

Xiao Xiao helped select a few and said, "You can buy some more grapes. Lao Chu likes to eat them. Even though he is obsessed with sweets now, he actually likes sour ones."

"Okay, can this series work?" Gu Qingqing picked up a bunch of larger fruits and asked her.

"Almost, that's it."

Gu Qingqing said with regret: "We built a shed on the island before and tied two grape vines. In two years, we will probably be able to bear fruit."

The stall owner chatted next to him. : "It's no shame to have two grape vines. The most important thing in Nanyang is fruit. There is a fruit base in the south of the city. It was built by the government. It seems to be 50 cents per person. You can go in and eat whatever you want. If you want to buy, you can pay by the pound." ."

Gu Qingqing secretly made a note, planning to take her family to play with her next time, as well as the camera, and ask Chu Dai in the evening to see if she could get it.

"Qingqing," she said as soon as she handed the mango bag to the stall owner, Xiao Xiao poked her with his hand: "Look at the back, isn't that Bai Rong?"

Hearing this, Gu Qingqing turned her head and saw a figure. The familiar profile of the girl in regular clothes must be Bai Rong.

Next to her was a middle-aged woman who also carried a vegetable basket. They looked a bit alike. It was probably her mother, picking celery.

"I just noticed that she has been looking at you. Her wedding date seems to be set."

"Huh? So soon?"

"My mother said that on the 20th of next month, the man's family came to the military area yesterday, with big and small bags. It seems that he takes it very seriously." Xiao Xiao leaned close to her ear and whispered: "My mother said that Uncle Bai did it for her. Her marriage was also very painstaking. The man's family background is worse than hers. He is a capable man and definitely wants to climb up. He has to rely on Uncle Bai. With this factor, he doesn't dare to treat Bai Rong badly."

Gu Qing Qing took the weighed mangoes and grapes, and then took the peeled pineapple and put it in the vegetable basket, and asked: "What if the man's rank is higher than that of her father in the future?"

"This is basically impossible. Nowadays, everyone above the teacher level is He is a veteran who has fought many tough battles before, and it will only become harder and harder to move up in the future." Xiao Xiao heard this from her father, and also said that Chu Dai had the courage to give up the commander of the island guard who was just around the corner. Position, I went to the Navy Command and started as a most basic deputy regiment.

Gu Qingqing was thoughtful.

Xiao Xiao easily carried the five fish and followed Gu Qingqing to the exit of the market. He still had time to ask her, "Can you lift these seven or eight kilograms of shrimp? How about I help you?"

"That's it. I still have the strength." Gu Qingqing smiled and shook her head. Bai Rong and her mother happened to be talking and laughing as they passed by her without turning their heads to look at her.

Gu Qingqing felt a little strange: "Didn't you say that she was opposed to this marriage? Why does she seem to be in good condition now?"

"I guess she was attracted by the outstanding man." Xiao Xiao said casually: "Old Chu's wife It's useless for her to worry about her after two years. Besides, I feel like she's just possessive. If Chu Zhao wasn't average-looking, she might have fallen in love with Chu Zhao."

"I think Chu Zhao is pretty good-looking. In fact, if she If she has a good personality, she would be more suitable to be paired with Chu Zhao. The family is all old acquaintances who know each other well, and they live in the same compound. It is convenient to go home at ordinary times, and the Chu family's uncle and aunt will definitely treat her better."

And they are a good match.

"Even if Bai Rong agrees with Chu Zhao, he won't agree," Xiao Xiao said with a smile: "Compared to a delicate girl like Bai Rong, Chu Zhao has similar tastes to Chu Dai, and he likes you more."

Hearing her words , Gu Qingqing paused, turned to look at her, stared at her face, lost in thought.

"Why are you looking at me like this?" Xiao Xiao wiped his face: "Did it have tomato juice?"

"No, if you said Chu Zhao likes me like this, then it couldn't be because he hasn't found a partner for so many years..." The more Gu Qingqing looked at her, the more likely she felt: "It's not because he likes you, right?!"

Xiao Xiao: "?" The fish in her hand almost dropped to the ground, and she subconsciously retorted: "How is it possible? With his temperament, If you liked me, I would have pursued you a long time ago. Besides, we have different temperaments. You are a good wife and mother. You can wash your hands and make soup and raise two children at home, but I can't."

She likes the army and will stay in the army even if she gets married in the future. If there is a child, her mother will help take care of it, so she doesn't need to worry too much.

"I am willing to dedicate all my life to the motherland." She shook her head sharply: "Let's go back to the military area."

Gu Qingqing laughed dumbly.

Xiao Xiao's character is really suitable for Gou Sheng. Hard ice needs fire to melt.

Chapter 218 Prosperity 218 After cultivating with all his strength,

he returned to the military area. Xiao Xiao took out a large chopping board and basin from the kitchen to prepare the fish.

Gu Qinglie woke up from his nap, took a small bench and sat down next to the big basin, "Qingqing, bring me another knife."

Gu Qingqing quickly went to the kitchen to get two knives, one for him and Xiao Xiao. , the movements of scraping fish scales are all equally free and easy.

After the two little guys finished playing with their uncle, they insisted on going downstairs to find their grandma, and were finally carried upstairs by Gu Canyang.

Shen Sui rarely spends time alone with this elder brother. He is previewing the contents of tomorrow's class. Gu Canyang holds one in his arms and crawls on the other's feet, watching him mark neatly in the book.

The man occasionally corrected him, which made Shen Sui a little flattered.

Later, when I met someone I didn't understand, I just asked directly. Although Gu Canyang spoke little, he answered every question.

He was also very patient when the two little guys were crawling around on him and kissing each other.

Shen Sui found that he just had a cooler temper and was very kind to his family.

I don’t know why the second brother and sister are so talkative, coming from the same family.

After Xiao Xiao and Gu Qinglie prepared the fish, Gu Qingqing took it to the kitchen to wash and marinate it.

"The fish intestines are too dirty. Leave them there until I can wash them." Gu Qinglie shouted at the top of his lungs.

"I know." Gu Qingqing responded.

On the fifteenth day of the month, the moon was sixteen full. At half past five in the evening, the outline of the full moon gradually appeared on the horizon. Xiao Xiao beat her aching waist, got up slowly, and cleaned the yard again.

Gu Canyang held Xiao Niannian in his arms and stood at the door of the living room to watch her waving the broom with great force. The little group ran to the yard and followed her behind, clapping her hands and laughing.

Nian Nian didn't want to make trouble with his brother. He didn't take a nap. He lay his little head on his uncle's shoulder and yawned. From time to time he raised his little hands to rub his eyes.

Gu Qinglie was cleaning the fish intestines in the kitchen. Gu Qingqing had marinated the fish and said, "You will have to go back to the army after a few days of drying. The fish meat is not even dry yet. You can give the dried salted fish to Aunt Yu to continue drying." , If you want to eat, just go to her and get it."

"Okay, actually you don't need to do too much, we found another lake in the desert, and Lao Yu drove a truck and dropped a ton of fry into it." Gu Qinglie said.

"I just always want to bring you something," Gu Qingqing raised her hand and looked at her watch. It was almost time to cook. She took a prepared fish and started to fillet it. "We will be in the week in two days." Six, Ah Sui’s school is on holiday, let’s go to the photo studio to take some photos.”

“You will bring two with you then, give one to Aunt Yu, and I will write her a letter.”

It is now the first month of 1975. Wednesday, 16th, February 26th in the Gregorian calendar.

"Okay, you can do this." Gu Qinglie cut open the intestines of the fish and washed them repeatedly: "Lao Yu also asked me to bring you some dried sweet potatoes this time. I said the kind of stuff that can knock out half a tooth in one bite Let him stay out of the sun, I'm too lazy to take him."

Gu Qingqing raised her foot and kicked him: "Uncle Yu is kind and kind, please be careful next time what you say."

"It's really hard to bite that dried sweet potato. He got a few sacks, but no one I'm willing to eat it." Gu Qinglie complained: "The dried melons dried by grandma are still fragrant and soft. If there are still some, you can pretend to be more and I will take them to the Corps for Lao Yu to try."

"Okay, what else is there? Do you want to bring something? Take a look at what else you want and make a list for me. Then we will go out and buy everything."

"It's nothing more. You can keep it for yourself if you have money. I came in a hurry this time and didn't give it to you. Tuantuan brings whatever he brings with him every year. I’ll make up for it next time.”

“Chu Dai said you would be transferred here in two months, is that true?” Gu Qingqing started chopping pickled cabbage and shredded ginger.

"Absolutely." There was no surprise.

"Tuan Tuan and I and my eldest brother are waiting for you in the military area every year," Gu Qingqing suppressed the emotion in her eyes: "Don't make me wait too long."

"...Well, okay."

At six o'clock, Chu Yuan came back first, and Qin The old man was always at home, and he couldn't put down the books in the study. There were also some letters from Chu Yuan, which he read with gusto.

Chu Dai followed closely behind. The weather was getting hotter and hotter. He loosened the buttons of his military uniform. Now the navy has changed to a new military uniform. It is no longer a navy-gray tunic, but a white uniform.

Xiao Tuantuan directly hugged his legs, "Daddy~hug~"

The two little guys enunciated the words more and more clearly. When Shen Sui was free, he even took them to recite the Three-Character Sutra.

The man bent down, took his eldest son with his strong arms, and let him sit in his arms.

Xiao Tuantuan shook his calves: "Mom~ Guoguo! Good times~"

Chu Dai understood and asked with a smile: "What Guoguo did Aniang buy? Dad heard about it." After saying that, he came to his eldest son. After sniffing it, the yellow juice around his mouth had a strong mango flavor.

Chu Dai deliberately made a mistake and teased him: "Is it a banana?"

Xiao Tuantuan shook his head, "Guoguo!"

"That's an apple."

The little guy shook his head more happily than a rattle.

He kicked his calves to come down, "Tuan Tuanzi, take it!"

Chu Dai followed him and put him down. The little Tuanzi quickly ran to the kitchen, rubbed his mother for a mango, ran out again holding it in his little hands, and handed it to his father. In front of him: "Guoguo~"

"Oh~mango." Chu Dai looked like he suddenly realized it, and asked his son with a smile: "Is it delicious?"

"Good time! Dad, it's good~"

Chu Dai sat down with the little guy in his arms. On the sofa, his white fingertips peeled off the skin of the mango, revealing the sweet flesh, and handed it to his son: "Did Tuantuan go out with grandma again this afternoon?"

The little guy shook his head, leaned his head over and took a bite on the mango, leaving jagged flesh. Uneven teeth marks.

Chu Dai didn't dislike him and took a bite from where he had bitten. It was sweet and sour, delicious and had a strong aroma.

Gu Canyang sat next to him, reading a book in his hand. Xiao Niannian lay on the sofa and fell asleep with his legs under his pillow, covered with a cradle quilt.

"Where's Xiao Xiao?" Chu Dai asked.

"Going back."

"She won't stay here to eat?" Chu Dai teased, "She is willing to leave while you are here."

"She will come back later." Gu Canyang turned the page.

While his father was talking to his uncle, Xiao Tuantuan had already taken several bites of the mango, his cheeks were bulging, and mango juice was flowing from the corner of his mouth, dripping on the back of the man's hand.

Chu Dai randomly found a rag from under the coffee table, wiped the back of his hand and rubbed the corner of his mouth, and continued talking to Gu Canyang: "Next week the navy and air force will join forces..."

Before he could finish his words, he heard his wife In a tone of disbelief: "Chu Dai?!"

"Huh?" He turned around, looked at the boiled shrimp in her hand that had not been placed on the dining table, pushed the mango away from her son and handed it to him to eat: "I Come and serve the food."

"No," Gu Qingqing frowned and said, "What are you using to wipe Tuantuan's mouth?"

Chu Dai then looked at the cotton cloth in his hand, "rag?"

Gu Qingqing endured and endured: "That's the cloth I used to wipe my butt on Niannian in the afternoon. Brother, why didn't you say anything when you saw it?"

"Not in time." Gu Canyang said calmly.

The veins on Gu Qingqing's forehead throbbed, and she scolded the two men again before turning around and heading to the kitchen.

Chu Dai is used to being scolded. If something happens to his brother, Chu Dai will be okay. The little woman is very realistic.

However, Gu Canyang was beyond his expectation. He asked: "Brother, didn't Qingqing say that she didn't dare to scold you?"

Gu Canyang looked at him with cold eyes: "Do you believe her words?"

Chu Dai: "... You watch Tuantuan, I'll go to the kitchen to help."

Ten minutes later, the food was served, and it was now half past six.

Xiao Xiao also came over, bringing a lunch box.

Gu Qingqing asked her: "Do you want to fight back and eat?"

"No, my father is too lazy to go to the cafeteria, so he asked me to come here to dress up and go back. He said that the chief of the military region would not be so stingy that he would not even give him a bowl of rice." She casually put the lunch box aside and sat down to eat first: "Ignore him, just bring him some leftovers later. He won't pick."

Gu Qingqing was a little funny. She took the lunch box, opened it and filled it with a few spoonfuls of rice. After compressing it, I took out two full spoonfuls of fish, picked out a dozen prawns from the plate, and added some leftover eggplant, beans and pepper pork belly from lunch?

"You can send it back to Uncle Xiao first." She handed it to Xiao Xiao.

"Why go to all this trouble? I asked him to come over and eat, but he didn't come because he was afraid that Uncle Chu would say something about him."

"What can I say about him?" Chu Yuan picked up a piece of tender fish meat, picked out the spines and fed it to the little ball in his arms.

"I don't know either. He said he was too shy to come because he was thin-skinned."

Hearing this, Chu Yuan and Mr. Qin both laughed. Chu Yuan sneered: "Your father's face is thicker than the city wall. Would he be too embarrassed to come? Did you have a fight with your mother and your face was scratched?"

"It was too dark and I didn't pay attention. I asked why my mother wasn't at home..." After saying that, Xiao Xiao put down his chopsticks, picked up the lunch box on the table and ran home. .

The gloating on her face was simply too obvious.

As soon as I saw it, I knew I had to run back to watch the fun.

"Both father and daughter are living treasures." Chu Yuan came to this conclusion.

Mr. Qin said warmly: "Xiao Hui's temper has not changed much."

"Not much has changed." Chu Yuan scooped a spoonful of pickled fish soup into a porcelain bowl, mixed it with a spoon and fed it to his eldest grandson: "You haven't either Have you changed?"

"I'm getting older." Mr. Qin said: "I used to think that I could devote another twenty years to the country, but now I am unable to do so and can only live out my old age."

"Didn't you train many successors for the country? ," Chu Yuan didn't pay attention to what he said: "If you really want to keep doing it, no one will stop you. I think you are just too lonely. Why don't you let someone introduce you to an old lady?"

"Forget it, we will do it in the future. Let's get together, two old men. I won't poke holes in your heart, and don't mess with me either." Mr. Qin said leisurely: "Your son is my son, and your grandson is my grandson."

"I also eat your food. I won’t eat for free, I will train Tuantuan and Niannian with all my heart, what do you think?”

Chu Yuan looked at him for a long time, nodded, and said to Gu Qingqing: “Qingqing, call me godfather.” Although he did not call him Chu Dai, the couple One body.

Chu Dai was a little helpless. This was his father recognizing him as another father.

Gu Qingqing was a little confused, but seeing the solemn look in Chu Yuan's eyes, she said obediently: "Godfather."

"Good boy." Qin Zhou smiled warmly, touched his body, and took out a jade bracelet for her: "Godfather. I don’t have anything valuable on me. This was left to me by your grandma, but it’s a pity…” He shook his head and said nothing more.

Forty years ago, I almost gave it away.

Chapter 219 Boom 219 Gu Canyang also gets angry?

"You are willing to bear it." Seeing his daughter-in-law's hesitation, Chu Yuan nodded and said: "This old man has his own thoughts, so let's accept it. It won't be a problem for my family."

He also knew about Qin Zhou when he was a teenager. During the raging war, he fell in love with a girl and wanted to give the girl the heirloom left by his mother and marry her.

It's a pity that in that era, there were very few love stories that started well and ended well.

Qin Zhou smiled and nodded: "I have no descendants. Now you call me godfather, and you will be my child from now on. I took advantage of it."

Chu Dai sighed.

These two old men really did it for the two little guys, I don’t know what to say.

Qin Zhou is not like Chu Yuan. He has great talents all over the world, and the students he brings out are all in important positions.

Now I just hope that the two little guys will grow up and live up to their expectations, and do something practical for the country.

Whether you are in politics or otherwise, you must not lose the pride that lies deep in the Chu family.

But now, as a father, he just hopes that his two sons will grow up safely and healthily.

Even when they grow up, it doesn't matter if they don't want to follow the path planned by their elders. They can do scientific research or military industry. Even if they want to go back to farm with their grandfather, it is their own choice.

He always respects their choices and is willing to serve as a beacon to guide them when they are lost.

He thought that the two old people should be like this too.

"Godfather." He also changed his words, took the jade bracelet from Qin Zhou's hand, took the woman's slender wrist, and put it on her gently.

The cold and warm touch touched her skin, and she stared blankly at the man as she looked at the jade bracelet on her wrist.

Chu Dai asked: "Do you like it? Then I will buy you one too."

"No," Gu Qingqing couldn't laugh or cry: "I just think it's too expensive." Even if she had never touched a jade bracelet, she knew it was a good thing at a glance. Moreover, this is something that his godfather has carried with him for so many years, and it means even more extraordinary things to him.

"Take it, it's useless to keep it with me, and it will be the same if it is passed on to you." Mr. Qin said with a smile.

They were all on her hands, and Gu Qingqing couldn't take them off anymore. She just wanted to put them away quickly when she returned to the room, otherwise what would happen if she bumped into them while cooking.

"Thank you godfather," she said.

Qin Zhou smiled and shook his head, feeling relaxed all over.

Chu Yuan understood him, got up and went to the kitchen to get a bottle of bamboo leaf green, and the two old guys toasted to each other.

Not long after, Xiao Xiao came back, pulled out a chair, sat down, and said to Gu Qingqing, "My dad was tickled by my mother." He couldn't hide the excitement in his eyes.

Gu Qingqing: "..." Suddenly she remembered that she said that day that her mother was very fierce, and Xue Xu's mother was even more fierce than her mother.

Suddenly I couldn't imagine how cruel these two aunts were.

Xiao Niannian, who was sleeping on the sofa, also woke up. He opened the cradle quilt and pushed the chair aside. He rubbed his eyes and walked towards the dining table. He found Gu Canyang without any mistake and climbed on top of him with his hands and feet.

Gu Canyang hugged him and sat on his lap, facing the dining table, lowering his head and asking him: "Are you hungry? What do you want to eat?"

"Shui Shui." Xiao Niannian leaned into his uncle's arms behind him and yawned.

Chu Dai held Gu Qingqing down, stood up and said, "You eat, I'll get it." He

poured some warm water into the bottle and handed it to his youngest son. He said, "Why don't you go back with your uncle tonight? There's no air force dormitory either. No, your uncle has a high rank and good accommodation conditions. You can cry as much as you want at night if you live alone."

Xiao Niannian bit the pacifier, shook his calf and drank half a bottle of water before letting go of the bottle before he was satisfied, and it fell into the palm of his uncle's hand. .

Putting the bottle aside casually, Gu Canyang asked him: "Come back with me."

Xiao Niannian turned around and rubbed his neck with her head, and said with a sweet voice: "I want to chirp~"

Chu Dai patted his butt and looked at Gu Canyang. Can Yang sat down next to him, "Okay, go sleep with uncle tonight and take your milk powder and diapers with you."

Xiao Nian Nian nodded, "Tweet~"

Gu Qinglie asked the little Tuantuan in Chu Yuan's arms, "Our big baby Why don't you sleep with your second uncle? Your uncle's bed is big, and you don't have to squeeze in with your parents. Your uncle can also secretly give you sweets, and you can drink sugar water if you want."

Xiao Tuantuan blinked and let out a milky voice. : "Liar!"

The adults couldn't help but laugh. Gu Qingqing ate her meal slowly and said to Xiao Xiao: "He has been cheating a lot in the past two days. This is a mark."

Xiao Xiao found it very interesting: "I thought Children don't remember things, so I have to be careful in the future and not tease them."

Gu Qingqing wondered: "Then why don't I remember what happened when I was a child?"

"As long as I remember." Gu Qinglie drank a bowl of fish soup, The sourness was very appetizing. He said: "When someone bumps into me outside, I have to sit on the ground and cry for a long time. After crying, I feel unwilling to go home and cry again in front of my brothers."

The Gu family is such a girl, not to mention her own Cousin, even Gu Tiechui and Gu Tieshi's brothers were so angry when they saw her face full of tears.

Chu Dai was a little funny when he heard this: "So squeamish."

"Yeah, we brothers often fight with people because of her. When we go home, this heartless person won't remember her brother now. He always tries to bully me. ." Gu Qinglie looked at her sideways.

Gu Qingqing felt a little guilty, "Then I will treat you better in the

future?" Xiao Xiao looked at Gu Canyang with his head down to feed his nephew with a look of surprise. He came closer to Gu Qingqing and asked, "Your eldest brother used to do this when he was a child." Fight?"

I can't even imagine it.

Gu Canyang also gets angry. Does he have mood swings?

The only time she saw him was expressionless and he kicked Chu Dai hard.

"Often," Gu Qingqing recalled, "but the only one who got scolded was my second brother."

Xiao Xiao couldn't help but laugh.

Isn't this just like Chu Zhao, when three people get into trouble, he is the one who takes the blame.

After finishing the meal, they were not in a hurry to clear the table. Chu Yuan and Mr. Qin drank in low voices and chatted about the past. The young men planned the future. Shen Sui also listened quietly, hoping to obtain useful information and reconfirm his direction.

Gu Qingqing heard Xiao Xiao say that she heard all kinds of gossip in the compound from her mother, that all kinds of parents were filthy. This compound was full of high-level cadres from the military region, and there were always some who wanted to use the back door.

Some aunts feel that it is unbalanced when they see relatives from their mother-in-law's family coming in, and they want to squeeze in their relatives from their mother-in-law's family.

It is said that this is the most common reason for quarrels between couples in the compound.

Gu Qingqing supported her chin with one hand and listened to her lively words. When she thought of something, she said, "Oh, wait for me."

"What are you doing?" Xiao Xiao took a glass of water and drank it to moisten her throat.

"Didn't you buy some fruit? I'm going to wash it. The grapes will spoil easily if they are left alone." Gu Qingqing went to the kitchen.

She washed the grapes one by one and put them in a bowl. She cut the mango into pieces and put them on bamboo skewers. She also didn't forget to bring the pineapple.

This is the advantage of living in Nanyang. Fruits and seafood are plentiful and cheap. Some fruits are grown by production teams and some are wild. As for seafood, the government allows fishermen to catch it and sell it in the market through the production team.

When the fruit was served, others didn't react at all. The most popular thing Gu Qinglie had eaten in the border town was red-flesh and green-skinned watermelon. He didn't recognize any of these fruits.

Seeing that they were not interested, they simply ate from their bowls.

Xiao Tuantuan got off Grandpa's arms a long time ago and ran to turn on the TV. There was something to eat here and he ran over again. He smiled brightly at his uncle with a shy face -

"Chirp, chirp~"

Gu Qinglie snorted, "I'm not your uncle, I'm a liar."

Xiao Tuantuan put his hand on his arm and stood on tiptoe to see what was in the bowl, but the man was too tall. He was taller than him even if he was sitting down.

Can't see it at all.

Xiao Tuantuan was so anxious that he kept shaking his arm: "Chirp, chirp~wuwu~"

Gu Qinglie was a little amused, but also afraid of really making him cry, so he bent slightly and brought the sea bowl in front of him: "Tell uncle what is this? "

Guo Guo!" Xiao Tuantuan reached out and took out a grape. Seeing his uncle lowering his head, he stood on tiptoes and pressed his little face against his uncle's wheat-colored face: "Uncle Ci~"

After saying that, he stuffed the grape into Gu Qinglie's mouth. .

Gu Qinglie was so excited that he picked up the little guy and asked him to sit on his lap. "What else do you want to eat?"

He poked a piece of mango with a bamboo stick.

"He ate a lot in the afternoon, so don't give it to him." Gu Qingqing warned.

"I know, I know, just let him smell it." He said this, but still brought the mango piece to his mouth. The little ball stuck out his tongue and licked it, then smacked his lips and hid in his uncle's arms to secretly savor the taste.

Gu Qingqing just smiled helplessly when she saw it. She was also pampered by her brothers when she was a child.

Life was a little better when I was a teenager. Sometimes my mother-in-law would say something if she ate too much, and her brothers would secretly feed it to her. When she got bloated, she would have to go to Hao Yizhen for some digestive medicine, and then take the note to Uncle Abacus. Reimbursement there.

It was getting late, Xiao Xiao helped clear the table and was going back. Gu Canyang had to go on a mission tomorrow and handed Xiao Nian Nian to Chu Dai, so he also got up to leave.

Xiao Niannian pulled her uncle's fingertips and looked at him eagerly.

Chu Dai picked up his son and said, "You really have to go with your uncle. He has a flight mission tomorrow and won't be able to take care of you. I will wait until you are older to live with your uncle and have nothing to eat and cook every day, okay?

" Nian Nian was in his father's arms and turned to look at his uncle, as if waiting for his answer.

Gu Canyang nodded, "You can eat uncle's allowance at any time."

The little guy gave up.

Gu Canyang and Xiao Xiao walked together. Looking at the girl's excited back and the unmoved man next to her, Gu Qingqing shook her head and smiled.

After Xiao Tuantuan had eaten and drank, he went to play with his younger brother. The two little guys were waiting for their father to turn on the TV.

Gu Qinglie saw the two elders finishing their drinks and clearing the table with the girl.

"Can we still maintain this kind of food standard these days?" he asked, looking at the empty bowl.

"As long as you want to eat, the standard can be raised a little higher. Why don't you go to the market with me tomorrow? You don't have to wait for Brother Jianguo and the others to deliver food." Gu Qingqing wiped the table and said, "Don't you like it? Do you want to eat meat? I'll go to the supply and marketing cooperative to cut a piece of pork belly and make spicy pork belly for you?"

"Okay, I'll go with you tomorrow. You don't need to bring a ticket. I have it here."

Gu Qingqing took the bowl to the kitchen, " You should keep the money you have for your wife."

Gu Qinglie scratched his head, rolled up his sleeves and followed, bending down to get a basin from under the cabinet to collect water and wash the dishes.

Chapter 220 Prosperous 220 All the sea, land and air gathered together.

At around ten o'clock in the evening, Chu Dai finished bathing the two little ones, dried them with towels and wrapped them up before going to bed.

Gu Qingqing has prepared clothes and is dressing Xiao Niannian.

The man sat next to her, rolled up a towel and wiped the water droplets off his little face.

"Dad~" The little girl rubbed against him, with an intoxicated look on her face: "Smells good!"

Xiao Niannian, who was only wearing a cotton and linen top, crawled over with bare legs, her two little heads smelling the man's scent. smell.

"Xiangxiang!"

Gu Qingqing patted her son's bare buttocks: "Wear pants, Chu Lingying."

Xiao Niannian, who was called by her name, shook her head and pushed her brother: "Aunt... you!"

Chu Dai said directly He lifted him up from his arms and put him on his wife's lap. He said funnyly: "Okay, little guy, I dare to switch identities with your brother."

The two little guys deceived Gu Qinglie several times by relying on their resemblance . , now Gu Qingqing rarely dresses them in the same clothes.

"I saw a photo of you when you were a child." Gu Qingqing stuffed her son's little foot into the trouser leg and put the other one on him.

"Huh?" The man hugged his son, looked at her sideways, and asked with a smile, "Does it look good?"

"It's not bad, he's about the same as the elder brother." Gu Qingqing looked careless.

The man just chuckled, "Where did you find the photo album? The study room? I remember stuffing it in the gap of the bookshelf upstairs when I was a child, and then it disappeared."

"... Dad's room," Gu Qingqing looked at him and said, " My father gave it to me, and he kept it in the drawer of the bedside table."

The smile in Chu Dai's eyes faded a little, and she twitched the corner of her mouth: "Really."

"Yeah," Gu Qingqing saw that he didn't seem to be in a good mood, and held her hand. He held his hand and said softly: "How about we go to the photo studio to take a family photo on Saturday? While my brother and the others were here, I asked. I had time during my lunch break at noon that day."

"Do a few more rinses then . Let Goudan take it to the Corps and give one to Uncle Guan and Uncle Yu."

"It's all up to you." The man had no objection.

Soon, it was Saturday.

Gu Qingqing found some rose-colored clothes to change into. This material was brought by the captain when she was on the island. She asked Xiao Huanniang to make long clothes and trousers, which looked very refreshing.

At that time, the captain said that this piece of material was kept by his relatives in the state-owned garment factory. His wife thought it was too plain and a bit inappropriate for her age, so she asked him to sell it.

Gu Qingqing happened to take a fancy to it and bought it with some cloth tickets and a few dollars.

The fabric was very large, and there was still some leftover from making a long coat and trousers. It should be possible to make two more sets of clothes. Gu Qingqing planned to leave it to her future sister-in-law.

I don't know my figure now, so I keep it at the bottom of the box. When Gou Sheng and Gou Dan get married, I will take my two sisters-in-law to the tailor shop to measure the size.

As for Asui's wife... that's still early.

"A Sui," Gu Qingqing adjusted her collar and asked the boy sitting on the sofa, "Does this look good?"

Shen Sui looked at it carefully for a while and nodded: "It looks good."

"That's okay, I'll look at it every year." Wait, your brother-in-law and the others will be back soon, and we are going to take pictures. You go and ask the second brother to change into brighter clothes."

Shen Sui is now wearing the black clothes that were first made on the island . , the supply ship only landed on the island once every half month, and he didn't have time to bring fabrics, so he picked up the leftover materials and asked Xiao Huanniang to make him two changes of clothes first.

Later, Gu Qingqing thought the black color was too dark. The boy couldn't hold back his youthfulness after wearing it, so he used the remaining black fabric at home to make clothes for the man, and Shen Sui used brighter blue.

"Okay." Shen Sui stood up, not forgetting to take away the half-licked candy and re-wrapped it in wrapping paper to avoid choking.

The two little guys have already changed their clothes. They have a lot of new clothes. Zhang Cuifen and Shi Rushuang made them themselves and can wear them until they are two years old.

Today they were wearing a blue one-piece knitted sweater, small cloth shoes, and the two brothers also wore red woolen hats.

This time it was really hard to tell who was who.

The two little dumplings became more and more active, running around the living room on the second floor, the longevity locks on their bodies jingling. The louder the sound, the happier they laughed.

"It's too noisy." Gu Qingqing shook her head. Gu Qinglie changed his clothes and came down. He picked up the little guy

who wanted to go downstairs without her attention with one hand, and lifted him up in the air: "Where are you going?"

He said angrily: "Looking for Jiujiu~"

"I've found it now, be good and don't run around." Gu Qinglie was very strong and directly lifted the little guy into his arms and let him lie on his shoulders.

Gu Qingqing looked at his army green uniform and asked, "You left this set of clothes on the island before but didn't take them with you. Do you want to take them to the Corps in two days?"

"I'm too lazy to take them with me. Let's put them here."

"No need to bring it. He can't take a bath for ten days and a half in the Corps, and he doesn't need to change clothes." Chu Dai came up at some point. He took off the hat on his head and put it on Xiaonian's head.

With a military cap on his red woolen hat, Chu Dai couldn't help but smile: "When you grow up, you should become a soldier. Don't you like to stick to your uncle? Be a pilot like him."

"It's not that easy to be a pilot . ." Gu Qingqing looked at the time and said, "Let's go to the cafeteria to eat first, and then take pictures after we finish eating."

"Okay." The two men carried the two little guys downstairs respectively, and Gu Qingqing followed Shen Sui's shoulders. thereafter.

Chu Yuan and Mr. Qin ate in the canteen at the headquarters, while Gu Qingqing and the others went to the Air Force Group to eat at Kongqinzao.

Gu Qinglie has been looking forward to it for a long time. "I didn't eat on purpose in the morning to save my stomach."

"You can come here at ordinary times. My eldest brother won't talk about you. He has a high allowance and won't miss your meal."

"He's more I'm happy to see you." Gu Qinglie shook his head and said, "Let me have a meal with him face to face, forget it."

He was quite worried about this elder brother.

Gu Qingqing's eyebrows curved: "Actually, I'm a little scared too."

Especially sometimes when she did something wrong, Gou Sheng's indifferent look would make her tremble.

The brother and sister talked as they walked. With Chu Dai around, they entered the air force base easily.

He saw Chu Zhao before he arrived at the flight attendant department. He waved: "Sister-in-law! Lao Gu."

As soon as Gu Qingqing came back to her senses, he had already ran to her.

"My mother has been talking about it every day for the past two days, but I haven't gone back. I heard that Xiao Xiao often goes there to have a meal?"

"Just yesterday." Gu Qingqing said with a smile, "Isn't that little girl from the supply and marketing cooperative bad?"

"No. I've seen it before, who knows if it's good or not. What age are we now, and I still want to engage in arranged marriages." Chu Zhao scratched Xiao Niannian's nose with his fingers: "My mother didn't want me to see each other at all, she just asked her I got married to her."

Chu Dai asked him: "You haven't gone back these two days?"

"I don't dare to go back. I'm living in the dormitory here." Chu Zhao led them to Kongqin Zao: "I feel like I haven't gone back these two days. I have lost weight, so I am going to replenish my weight with you."

Gu Qingqing glanced at Gu Qinglie and said, "Actually, eldest brother is quite good. If he hadn't been there, my father and mother would have given you a headache."

Gu Qinglie grinned, "That's right."

Eating at Kongqinzao At that time, Chu Zhao and Gu Canyang were full of grievances and complaints, but Gu Canyang remained unmoved. Finally, he took the lunch box and said to him: "Get out of the way."

Chu Zhao had to stand up and let him put the lunch box over, and continued to talk to Chu Dai and Gu Qinglie. Despite his own sad situation, Chu Dai still gave his brother face, nodding his head from time to time and saying a few words.

Gu Qingqing is feeding the little guy porridge. Today is lean meat porridge, which he likes to drink every year.

"Old Gu," Chu Zhao scratched his hair: "How about I go with you to build the corps."

"..."

Gu Qinglie looked at his white, tender skin and tender flesh, and sincerely suggested: "Yes. Why don't you just follow that girl?"

Chu Zhao lay down on the back of the chair behind him and waved his hand to indicate that it would be better for him not to speak.

Half an hour later, the family gathered at the gate of the military area, with Xiao Xu and Mr. Qin's orderlies following closely behind.

It was rare for the guard to see the chief going out on foot, so he quickly saluted and signaled that he was allowed to go.

The photo studio is not far away, not far from the supply and marketing cooperative. Gu Qingqing and the others' wedding photos were also taken here.

Chu Yuan and Mr. Qin walked in front, one in military uniform and the other in regular clothes, one full of momentum and the other gentle.

Except for Shen Sui and the two little guys, Gu Qinglie wore an army uniform, Gu Canyang and Chu Dai wore an air force uniform and a navy uniform.

Gu Qingqing couldn't help but laugh: "Our family has gathered together by sea, land and air."

Chu Yuan and Qin Zhou in front looked back and nodded.

Everyone is very happy today. Let alone taking family photos, even photos have not been taken in many years.

When they arrived at the photo studio, the young comrade took them in. Looking at the family, he couldn't help but ask: "Comrade, are all your family members soldiers?"

Gu Qingqing smiled and nodded.

"How about taking a photo in the yard? Move two chairs for the old comrades to sit on, and you stand behind." He suggested, holding the camera.

"Okay, I'll do whatever you want." Gu Qinglie looked around, found two chairs in the corner, and easily carried them to the yard with one hand and one chair.

Chu Yuan and Mr. Qin sat on chairs, and Gu Qingqing gave Chu Yuan the little nian in her eldest brother's arms. Chu Dai smiled and put Xiao Tuantuan in Mr. Qin's arms. "Follow me," he said.

The two old men were holding two children in blue sweaters, their faces full of love. Shen Sui, who was not as tall as a few men, was standing next to the chair.

Gu Qingqing stood between two chairs, with Gu Canyang and Gu Qinglie on one side and Gu Qinglie putting his hand on her shoulder.

The thin man stood between her and Gu Canyang, a head taller than her.

"Look at the camera!" the little comrade shouted: "One, two, three... laugh!"

There was a click, and the photo was taken. He took a look and saw that the whole family looked good, and they looked good in any photo, and the men all looked good. Wearing military uniform, he looks even more handsome.

"Comrade, how many copies are you going to wash out?"

Gu Qingqing turned her head and asked the man behind her, "How many copies? Let's keep three copies for ourselves, one in the bedroom, and one each for daddy and godfather."

"And me, eldest brother and I also want one." Gu Qinglie grinned.

"I know, I can't live without you."

Gu Qingqing looked at Shen Sui again and said, "We Sui also want one. Tomorrow we will go to the department store with my second brother to see if there are any photo frames to buy, and we will also put them on your bedside table. Come on."

Shen Sui nodded, with a little smile in his narrow eyes.

"I want to send one from Datunzi Village, one from Sister A Nian on the island, and one from the Construction Corps, Captain Guan, and Uncle Yu." Gu Qingqing counted on her fingers: "Is it almost done?"

The man nodded, "Absolutely."

"Comrade, please help me develop ten photos, thank you." Gu Qingqing's eyebrows were furrowed.

"Okay." The little comrade put away the camera: "Then which one of you will pay."

"I'll do it." Chu Dai followed him and went to the front counter.

After leaving the photo studio, they marched back to the military area.

Gu Canyang and Chu Dai both came out during their lunch breaks and had other tasks in the afternoon.

They went to the Air Force Group and Navy Command respectively. Chu Yuan also went to the headquarters, and Mr. Qin went to the staff headquarters to meet old friends.

Shen Sui put Xiao Niannian down and let him walk on the ground by himself. Xiao Tuantuan also kicked off his uncle's arms and trotted after his brother.

It has been almost 20 degrees in Nanyang these days, the weather is very good, and there are many military wives taking a walk outside after lunch.

They did not rush back to the military hospital, but walked slowly outside. When a child saw two identical little dumplings, he shook his mother's hand and said with surprise: "Mom! Look how someone can have a different body!" "

The military wife rubbed his head and laughed and scolded: "What are you talking about? They are called twins? I have told you to study more and not to desert in class. I don't know now."

The little boy was unconvinced, "Our teacher must be sure I haven't seen it either. No, I have to go and have a look. I'll tell my teachers and classmates at school the day after tomorrow.

After saying that, I threw away his mother's hand and ran towards the two little guys.

Standing still in front of the little guys, looking at each other, little The boy scratched his head: "Mom, they are exactly the same, how can there be such a beautiful little baby. "

The two little dumplings are like their father, with snow-white skin, and they have inherited the man's clear eyebrows. Under the sun, their blue sweaters and red hats are particularly conspicuous.

The little dumpling's big eyes are flashing, not knowing what this big brother is going to do. What to do, but still took a step forward to block the younger brother, and the two brothers looked up at him together.

The little boy did not dare to move, for fear of scaring them to tears, but he just wanted to see more.

The sun is bright here in Nanyang, and many students in the class She is swarthy, and such a cute little girl with red lips and white teeth is really rare.

The most important thing is! They look exactly the same?!

He couldn't wait to show off to his classmates. This was the first thing he discovered. There were two identical children in the military area. , just like looking in the mirror.

"I'm sorry, comrade," the little boy's mother apologized to Gu Qingqing: "The little boy has never seen the world, but these two children of yours are really good. "

As she said this, she glanced at Gu Qinglie, who was wearing army uniform, and said softly: "... He doesn't look like their father. "

After she finished speaking, she realized that she had made a mistake. Who is a father who doesn't like to hear that his son is like him? She apologized repeatedly.

Seeing her brother's face turned black, Gu Qingqing couldn't help but laugh and explained: " This is not my lover, this is my second brother. "

"ah? Oh, no wonder. "The military wife breathed a sigh of relief and smiled: "I'm sorry, I didn't understand your relationship, so I just said that you two look so similar. "

Looking back at this, the smile on Qingqing's face also solidified. Gu Qinglie's expression softened and he scratched his head: "Sister-in-law, your accent is from the north, right? "

Yes, from the border town, come with my man and join the army." "The military wife lamented, "I didn't want to come here because I thought it was hot and humid in the south. Now that I've come here, I can eat whatever seafood I want, including fish, green leafy vegetables are always available, and there's no shortage of water. I can't bear to leave anymore. "

"What about you, where are you from?" she asked.

"I'm from Yancheng, but I'm a soldier in the border town."

"Huh?" The military wife quickly reacted, and her originally casual chatter became enthusiastic: "Comrade from the Construction Corps?!"

Her eyes were bright, as if she was watching Arrived relatives.

On the contrary, it made Gu Qinglie embarrassed.

"Yes, from the Construction Corps."

This time the conversation was completely off-putting. Gu Qingqing and Shen Sui looked at each other and both became happy. They pulled him to the shade of a tree in front so as not to disturb her brother's bragging.

I don’t know what the little boy said, but the two little dumplings walked slowly behind him, not afraid, as if they wanted to follow him wherever they went.

Shen Sui watched for a moment and said to the woman, "Sister, I'll go watch."

"Go and see what they want to do. If it's not dangerous, just follow them." She agreed.

The boy nodded and followed the two little guys slowly. The little boy noticed something and looked back.

When he saw it was his younger uncle, he smiled brightly, revealing his leaky glutinous rice teeth.

Shen Sui had a deep smile in his eyes and nodded slightly towards him.

The first and third children walked to the other side of the path. Gu Qingqing was a little bored and couldn't help but look at her second brother.

Gu Qinglie is tall and strong, and the muscles on his arms are tight when he wears short sleeves.

My skin is a bit darker. I was exposed to the sun and wind in the Construction Corps, and a layer of skin was often lost in the sun.
