Chapter 110

Zhong Jianguo's head hurts: "Can you stop saying that I know her? I don't want to know her."

"Just kidding." Song Zhaodi couldn't help but twist his face. "Look at you in a hurry."

Zhong Jianguo leaned against the wall: "It's not that I'm in a hurry, it's that your words are too easy for others to misunderstand. People who don't know the truth heard it and thought I had something to do with her."

"I remember you said before that she is prettier than me." Song Zhaodi reminded him.

Zhong Jianguo looked her up and down: "There are many people who are prettier than you. Unfortunately, I only like you."

"Hey hey..."

The couple turned their heads in unison.

Zhong Dawa rubbed her arms: "Goosebumps are all over. Dad, mother, don't be so tired and crooked, the dishes are cold."

"The food is cold." Zhong Jianguo glared at him and asked, "What are you doing out?"

Zhong Dawa coughed: "I came out and heard that you like my mother." Before Zhong Jianguo could speak, he quickly said, "I'm curious to hear you talk about her."

"You're not curious." Zhong Jianguo glared at him, "Boys, don't be such an idiot."

Zhong Dawa gave him a deep look and turned back to the house.

Zhong Jianguo blinked, not understanding: "What does this kid mean?"

"You are also a man." Song Zhaodi wiped her face and pushed him, "Go into the house for dinner. Hey, it's raining? Hurry up and bring in the clothes outside."

Seeing that the raindrops were as big as beans, Zhong Jianguo quickly followed Song Zhaodi and touched his clothes: "It's still a little wet. I'll tie a rope in the house tomorrow, so I don't have to pile it on a chair."

"If you can find a few iron pipes and weld a drying rack, not only do you not need to tie a rope, but you don't have to put away your clothes when it rains." Song Zhaodi said, "Just lift the rack directly under the porch."

Zhong Jianguo was curious: "Isn't the iron frame heavy?"

"Look back and I'll draw it for you." Song Zhaodi said, seeing Erwa running out of the house, she quickly asked, "Why are you going? It's raining."

Erwa waved her hand: "Don't do anything. Forgot to bring in the newspaper."

Zhong Jianguo's radio couldn't find a signal twice in three days, so Song Zhaodi negotiated with Zhong Jianguo to order a newspaper, so that she would not know anything.

The days on the island are too monotonous. There is a clock Jianguo listening to Song Zhaodi talk about her previous life. She is very afraid that Song Zhaodi is tired of three meals a day, except for eating and sleeping.

Song Zhaodi asked for a newspaper, but he not only did not refuse, but also took the initiative to help Song Zhaodi order the newspaper. Later, ordered a wooden box at the door so that when the postman came, Song Zhaodi or the children had to come out to get the newspaper.

Song Zhaodi thought she could read some international news from the newspaper, but she was disappointed by the content of the newspaper. After a few days, Song Zhaodi was too lazy to watch.

If Erwa didn't talk about it, Song Zhaodi almost forgot about the newspaper.

When Zhong Erwa came back with the newspaper, Song Zhaodi didn't even read it. However, Erwa handed the newspaper to Song Zhaodi: "Mother, there is a letter in it."

"Whose?" Song Zhaodi turned it out and raised her brows, "Zhong Jianguo, Zhong Shengli's letter."

Zhong Jianguo was stunned: "Zhong Shengli?"

"Your brother." Song Zhaodi said, "My cousin hasn't made trouble with you for two years, you even forgot her son?"

Zhong Jianguo didn't answer: "Look what happened."

"He said he would get married in a few days." Song Zhaodi said, "I didn't tell us to go, just tell us." She couldn't help frowning, "What does this mean?"

Zhong Jianguo shook his head: "Don't care what he means. Write a letter to the eldest brother, how much he will give, and how much we will give."

"Then I won't go?" Song Zhaodi asked.

Zhong Jianguo: "Don't go! When my dad came with Victory, we didn't give them face like that. If you go, you might have to eat at the elder brother's house again."

"Uncle doesn't care about food?" Erwa asked.

Zhong Jianguo: "If you take care of your meals, you will definitely take care of your meals. But you don't have to take care of your mother's food."

"Then why should we give the gift money?" Zhong Dawa was unhappy, "I decided not to give it!"

Song Zhaodi raised her eyelids: "It's useless for you to decide. One day your grandma will send a letter, you can decide."

"My grandmother?" Big baby first thought of Mother Song, and then something wrong, he also had a grandmother, "My uncle and my aunt are married, and there is no one to marry."

Song Zhaodi: "Your cousin and cousin. It's time to get married in five years at most. Are we going or not?"

"Don't go!" Zhong Dawa said, "I don't even know them."

Song Zhaodi turned to Zhong Jianguo.

Zhong Jianguo waved his hand: "I'll talk about it later. I'll go upstairs to pack some clothes. Don't worry if you don't come back one night."

"It's useless to worry." Erwa said, "Dad, you have to be more careful."

Zhong Jianguo rubbed his head: "For you, I will also protect myself well."

Song Zhaodi had no impression of this naval battle, she thought it was a small fight. At the end of August, Zhong Jianguo did not come back, and Song Zhaodi was not worried at all.

On September 3rd, in the morning, Song Zhaodi heard a flute-like sound while cooking, so she asked the big baby who was burning the fire, "Do you know who is playing the trumpet?"

"Mother, it's not the sound of the horn." Zili said, standing at the door waiting for the meal, "It's an alarm."

Song Zhaodi's hand trembled: "Alarm?!"

"Yes." said more independently, "I heard it when I was young."

Song Zhaodi's face changed suddenly, and she thought about it: "Zi Li, you come to cook, I'll go and see next door." After speaking, she took off her apron and went to Mrs. Duan.

Sister-in-law Duan also came out of the house. Seeing Song Zhaodi's flustered expression, she hurried up to meet her: "Don't worry, it's alright."

"Will you raise the alarm if you have nothing to do?" Song Zhaodi asked eagerly, "Auntie, did someone from Lao Jiang take the opportunity to call?"

Sister-in-law Duan shook her head: "I don't know either. However, you have to tell a few children that if there is a real fight, tell them to hide in the mountains."

"Auntie, don't scare me." Song Zhaodi only saw the war on her mobile phone and computer. Although she had lived on Wengzhou Island for six years, she had never seen it with her own eyes. She subconsciously felt that the war was very far away from her. , even if the people who often heard Zhong Jianguo say Lao Jiang came to harass them again.

Sister-in-law Duan said seriously: "I didn't scare you, I said this to prepare you psychologically. You have to go to school later. If something happens, everyone can panic, but you can't panic. You have to take your child to transfer."

"Mother, what's wrong?"

Song Zhaodi turned around and saw Sanwa running over with worry written on her face. She felt inexplicably full of courage and pretended to be calm: "It's okay. I'm just here to ask your grandma Liu why the alarm was suddenly raised."

"Did grandma say that?" Sanwa asked.

Song Zhaodi: "I said, no big deal. Let's go home for dinner."

Sanwa didn't believe it, because Song Zhaodi's face was very bad, she looked at her and then at Sister Duan: "Is it all right?"

"Did Mother lie to you?" Song Zhaodi asked rhetorically.

Sanwa shook her head: "No. But mother also said that a white lie is not a lie."

Song Zhaodi staggered: "I also said that in the school, you are not allowed to be naughty, not allowed to talk back to the teacher, and I didn't see you remember."

"Mother!" Sanwa was unhappy, "We are talking about you now, what are you doing to me?"

Song Zhaodi: "Because you don't believe your mother."

"Then I believe you." Sanwa wrinkled her nose, "Big brother said that my mother is the most threatening, and the whole family is the most cunning. I think he is very right."

Song Zhaodi glanced at him: "Dad said to listen to me, did you listen?"

Sanwa rolled her eyes at the sky and opened her eyes suddenly: "Mother, mother, look, the plane."

"What plane?" Song Zhaodi raised her head, two planes whizzed past, she felt flustered, "Let's go home first." She grabbed Sanwa's arm and left.

When Song Zhaodi got home, she didn't even bother to eat, so she called her five children to her side and told them what Sister Duan had said. But after saying it three times, Song Zhaodi was still worried, "Big baby, if something happens, go to your younger brother first. Sanwa, everyone else is running out, you just sit in the classroom and wait for the four older brothers to come to you, this time you must listen. Mother's words, okay?"

The school organized movie watching, and Sanwa watched several war movies, and was frightened a few times.

Seeing that Song Zhaodi is very serious now, the child nodded vigorously: "Mother, I must listen to my brother. You, you have to go up the mountain to find us."

"I will." Song Zhaodi couldn't guarantee, but Zhong Jianguo was not at home, she was the backbone of the whole family, she had to convince the children that even if Lao Jiang's people really came over, she would be able to protect the children.

On the morning of September 18, Zhong Jianguo, who had been away from home for several days, came back with news that South Vietnam announced that some islands in the Nansha Islands would be included in its territory. If the Foreign Ministry's negotiation fails, in order to maintain the country's territorial integrity, it will go to war with South Vietnam.

What comforted Song Zhaodi was that, in case of a sneak attack by Lao Jiang and the Americans, even if he needed assistance, he would not dispatch troops from here. In other words, Zhong Jianguo does not have to go to the South China Sea.

If Zhong Jianguo didn't go to the front line, even if he went out to sea patrolling every three days, Song Zhaodi would not worry. But when she relaxed, she realized that she hadn't paid attention to Sun Wanru for several days.

On the morning of September 23, Song Zhaodi cleaned up the vegetable garden and pulled out the old cucumber seedlings. When she looked up, she found that Sun Wanru was also picking cucumber seedlings.

In the evening, when Zhong Jianguo came back, Song Zhaodi couldn't help but say to him, "The fairy has descended into the world."

"You are too busy." Zhong Jianguo was speechless, "Victory gets married tomorrow, and you call the big brother's factory tomorrow morning, in case he doesn't receive our letter and mistakenly thinks that Victory didn't tell us. He won't give us any gift money. , your cousin should take the opportunity to make trouble again."

Song Zhaodi sighed: "Sister-in-law is too good-tempered. If it were me—"

"My stepmother moved a bench and sat at the door of our house to scold her, what can you do to her?" Zhong Jianguo said, "Send her to the Revolutionary Committee or the police station? No matter where it is, people will say, my stepmother is an elder, don't follow her. She counts and waits.

"If you block her like you block Sun Wanru, the neighbors on the left and right will think that you and my stepmother are half a dozen." After a pause, "Mr. Song, this is not the era you lived in, and many things can't be done by your temperament."

Song Zhaodi nodded: "I know. So Sun Wanru stared at me before, and I didn't ask her if you were sick."

"Don't mention her." Zhong Jianguo had a headache. "That woman doesn't stare at you, but recently she stared at me instead."
