Chapter 111 The War Begins

Song Zhaodi thought she heard right: "Staring at you?"

"Yes." Zhong Jianguo nodded.

Song Zhaodi looked at him: "Did she like you?"

Zhong Jianguo shuddered: "Don't talk nonsense." He swallowed, "I think it's the same reason to stare at you."

"Crazy." Song Zhaodi frowned, "When?"

Zhong Jianguo: "I've been doing laundry these days. I'm back, and I'm going out to replace the head of Shen Xuancheng. Shen Xuancheng is not at home these days. Sun Wanru washes all their clothes at home."

"Is the clothes clean?" Song Zhaodi was curious.

Zhong Jianguo: "The weather is hot, so I change it every day or two. It's not dirty at all. Just sprinkle some washing powder and rub it in the water. I can't tell if it's dry or not."

"Self-reliance, big baby, reborn, from tomorrow onwards, the three of you will wash our clothes." Song Zhaodi shouted outside.

The five children were playing cockfights in the courtyard. When they heard Song Zhaodi's words, they agreed to continue.

Song Zhaodi said to Zhong Jianguo again, "Don't let them wash my clothes."

"I'll explain to them tomorrow." Zhong Jianguo yawned, "Are you sleepy?"

Song Zhaodi was not sleepy, but seeing that Zhong Jianguo was really sleepy, she said, "I'm sleepy, let's go upstairs." Then she told the five children that she was playing in the courtyard and was not allowed to run outside.

I grew up on my own, and I'm not interested in games like cockfighting. But the big baby, who was more than a year younger than him, was very interested in playing, and he also brought Rebirth, who had never liked to play. If self-reliance dares to say that cockfighting is boring, four younger brothers can beat him in a group.

When I heard my parents go upstairs, I almost laughed and said, "Let's go to sleep too."

"It's still early." Da Wa waved her hand, "It's not even eight o'clock, continue, continue. Be independent, let's fight."

Sanwa squeezed over: "Brother Zili, let's fight."

"Sanwazi, let's play." Gengsheng saw the little fox in their family and asked honest people to bully him, "I'm standing still."

Sanwa glanced at him: "I don't want to play with you."

"I don't want to play with you either," Gengsheng said.

Sanwa stared at Zili: "Brother Zili, do you want to play with me?"

Zi Li couldn't help but think that the scene of Sanwa looking for him to turn the flower rope back then would have been in the past, and Zi Li would think about it. Now, Zi Li smiled and said, "I don't want to!"

"Pfft!" Gengsheng was more happy, "Sanwa, don't cry."

Sanwa snorted: "I'll go tell my father and mother, you guys are working together to bully me."

"It's you who is bullying." Da Wa pointed at him, "Because you are the youngest, I will complain to my mother and father every three days, and I have wanted to beat you for a long time."

"Don't let people sleep!?"

Brother five shivered, followed the sound and looked over, there was an extra head on the next window.

The five brothers looked at each other, is she sick?

Self-sufficiently patted the younger brothers on the shoulders and whispered, "Go into the room and talk."

"Is that Sun Wanru?" As soon as he entered the room, the big baby couldn't wait to ask.

Nodding independently.

"Then she's really sick." Erwa said, "We played in our yard and didn't bother her. Grandma Liu didn't say a word. She was the only one who had troubles. I don't believe she is sleeping now."

Think for yourself: "Go upstairs and ask Mom and Dad. Sun Wanru's voice is so loud, they must have heard it."

Although Zhong Jianguo hadn't gone out to sea in the past few days, he had to be on guard against ene attacks. When he entered the camp, he entered a combat state, and he didn't dare to relax at all. When got home to relax, found that was very tired.

When they got upstairs, Zhong Jianguo took off his clothes and lifted the quilt to sleep. In the past, would fight with Song Zhaodi a few times, but have no interest in these days. :

Sun Wanru let out a howl, and Zhong Jianguo sat up abruptly, realizing that it was the neighbor next door who was nervous, cursed, and lay down again: "Zhao Di, is she like this during the day?"

"Not during the day." Song Zhaodi said, "It's the first time since she was on the island." The voice fell, and when she heard a knock on the door, Song Zhaodi patted Zhong Jianguo, "Go out and have a look."

Zhong Jianguo rubbed his eyes and went out, and heard several sons ask Sun Wanru what was wrong. Zhong Jianguo waved his hand, he is crazy, don't guess. Go home and sleep.

Seeing that he didn't want to talk and couldn't sleep, the five brothers opened the utility room and took out all the books in it to see if there were any missing storybooks.

Zhong Jianguo locked the door, but found that he was no longer sleepy when he lay on the bed, and couldn't help but scolded: "Zhao Di, you said that Shen Xuancheng is not a brainless person, how could he like Sun Wanru?"

"Why did you fall in love with me in the first place?" Song Zhaodi asked rhetorically.

Zhong Jianguo: "Frank, hardworking, hate my stepmother as much as I do. And I can give you the life you want. With this last point, you wouldn't dare to abuse my three children."

"In fact?" Song Zhaodi asked with a smile.

Zhong Jianguo pulled up the quilt and covered his head, looking like he didn't want to say more.

Song Zhaodi: "Shen Xuancheng is not looking for a mother for his children, but a daughter-in-law for himself. He doesn't need to be like you, to see if I am hardworking and hardworking. He saw that Sun Wanru was not crooked, or the Sun he saw before he joined the army. The eldest lady is fine."

"I don't agree." Zhong Jianguo said, "Marrying a daughter-in-law is to marry and live, not to look good."

Song Zhaodi: "Then why did you marry the big baby's mother in the first place?"

"Gentle and sensible." Zhong Jianguo said, "She is a teacher again."

Song Zhaodi was delighted: "Do you think she is a teacher, and her character must not be bad? Then Shen Xuancheng thinks that Sun Wanru is a miss of the Sun family, and her knowledge is definitely not bad." After a pause, "You have gotten along with Bai Hua, I didn't realize that she was soft-hearted, unassertive, and easy to deceive. Shen Xuancheng had never been alone with Sun Wanru, and it was normal that she didn't realize that her head was ill."

"They have been married for six years." Zhong Jianguo said.

Song Zhaodi: "I can guarantee that they have said more in six years than we have in a month."

"Listening to what Mrs. Shen said, Sun Wanru is not very satisfied with Shen Xuancheng." Zhong Jianguo said, "I don't think I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with Shen Xuancheng. Wait a minute, Song Zhaodi, other people Sun Wanru didn't like Shen Xuancheng and gave him two daughters—"

Song Zhaodi pulled up the quilt and covered her head.

"Don't try to hide!" Zhong Jianguo pulled the quilt off with all his strength.

Song Zhaodi turned her head and said, "I hate you!"

Zhong Jianguo froze, turned around and twisted her face: "You really, enough!"

"Have you had enough time with me?" Song Zhaodi asked.

Zhong Jianguo snorted: "Don't deliberately misinterpret what I mean."

"Captain Zhong, do you know the seven-year itch?" Song Zhaodi turned to face him and asked.

Zhong Jianguo shook his head: "What do you mean?"

"It means that after seven years of marriage, a couple will have a lot of conflicts, and they will hate each other." Song Zhaodi said, "We got married in six or seven years, and we will enter the seventh year in half a month. Will you be because of me? Don't want to have children, suddenly one day you feel fed up and divorce me?"

Zhong Jianguo glanced at her lightly and sneered, "You are the one who wants to get a divorce."

"I swear to God, I never thought about it." Song Zhaodi stretched out her hand.

Zhong Jianguo: "You are the daughter of God. If you break your promise, he will not care about you. Let me tell you, Song Zhaodi, you belonged to my Zhong family in life, and you have to bear my surname when you die. Divorce? In your next life. Say it again."

"I won't get married in my next life." Song Zhaodi said.

Zhong Jianguo wanted to ask, how are you so sure? When the words came to his lips, he was amused: "Sleep, sleep, don't talk nonsense. Maybe I will be out to sea early tomorrow morning."

Negotiations with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs were fruitless, and the imperial capital began to discuss a battle plan.

In 1973, in the middle of winter, just after Laba, Zhong Jianguo told Song Zhaodi that he would move to the camp. As for whether he can come back for the Spring Festival, it depends on whether Lao Jiang asks him to come back.

When Zhong Jianguo said these words, his five sons were all by his side. Just after he finished speaking, the tears of the five children came out.

Sanwa hugged Zhong Jianguo's arm and didn't allow him to go, but Dawa pulled him away and slapped him on the buttocks.

The eldest baby, who will be twelve years old in a month, is almost as tall as Song Zhaodi. The young man has a lot of strength, but he has no strength. He slapped Sanwa stunned, and he forgot to stop Zhong Jianguo.

Song Zhaodi sent Zhong Jianguo back, and saw the big baby and the third baby fighting. Seeing that Dawa was hiding from Sanwa, and Sanwa scratched Dawa unilaterally, Song Zhaodi didn't care.

When the brothers were tired from playing, Song Zhaodi called the two children to her side, picked up Erwa's drawing book, and slapped the brothers' buttocks. Only then did a few children go out to play.

The war was imminent, and the soldiers in the family area moved to the camp area, and the children on the island were not in the mood to play.

Song Zhaodi said it, seeing several children with their heads dizzy, and realizing that the children have really grown up.

On the twenty-seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, which is also January 19, 1974, Song Zhaodi woke up like a few days earlier and played with the radio, trying to hear the news from the south.

I thought that the signal could not be found again this time, but the squeaking sound made Song Zhaodi's eyes light up, and she quickly shook the antenna slowly. After a while, she could hear the voice clearly, but she wished she didn't hear it.

After being self-reliant and reborn, happened to hear that the South China Sea Fleet and the South Vietnamese Navy were fighting in Xisha.

The brothers looked at each other, walked up to Song Zhaodi and asked, "Mother, do you have any news about my grandfather?"

Song Zhaodi was stunned for a moment, then shook her head: "No. The newspaper should arrive. Go and read the newspaper."

Gengsheng turned around and ran out, and got the newspaper. It was full of news about South Vietnam's occupation of the Xisha Islands, and there was not even a single word of Qi. Gengsheng was very disappointed.

Song Zhaodi opened the newspaper and read it carefully. She saw several old generals who had been suppressed in the newspaper, touched the heads of self-reliance and rebirth, and pointed to the people in the newspaper: "Are these old generals from your grandfather? comrade-in-arms?"

Self-reliance and regeneration nodded.

"They are being reused now, and your grandfather's treatment will be much better than before." Song Zhaodi was afraid that the two children didn't understand, and explained, "Those who are detaining your grandfather will think that one day, your grandfather will also be reused. , so don't dare to treat him harshly."

"Really?" Gengsheng asked quickly.

Song Zhaodi couldn't guarantee it, but she still nodded.

"Mother, didn't you say that you have no relatives for self-reliance and rebirth? Why do you have another grandfather?"

Song Zhaodi raised her head and saw Dawa standing outside the door with a puzzled face: "I—"

"Zhao Di!"

The four mothers looked out in unison, and Zhou Shufen ran in like the wind.

What's wrong with this woman? Song Zhaodi frowned slightly: "What's wrong?"

"Zhao Di, that bastard Ma Zhonghua is going to the battlefield." Zhou Shufen said with tears streaming down her face, "You, you can call Captain Zhong and ask him to persuade the old horse, okay? I beg you., Zhao Di."
