Chapter 128 Why did the captain change his wife when he went home?

The exact nature of the pathogen has not been announced yet, but there must be an explanation for so many people getting sick.

The news released in the previous life was that the spy poisoned the person, and there were not many casualties in this life. Chen Tang felt that the commander might leak some information.

Sure enough, not long after, the commander revealed part of the truth of the matter.

It was only said that a Japanese man ran to this hilltop to escape pursuit, and was later shot in a cave. Before he died, he hid a chemical weapon in the cave. After so many years, the gas inside the thing leaked out, but was only partially covered by the soil. The child did not stay there for long, so he just had a fever.

Everyone was afraid that something might happen to the child, so they crowded at the hospital entrance to ask if there was any harm to the child.

They saw a group of people wearing protective clothing and gas masks coming up the mountain, and all the things were wrapped in special containers and carried down the mountain.

If adults are like this, then won’t their children be miserable?

The hospital tried to persuade everyone that if the fever could be reduced, it meant that the antidote developed by the hospital was effective and that there would be no serious problem.

Some people felt that the hospital did not tell the truth, so they went to a hospital in the city center for another check-up. They only felt relieved after confirming that there was no problem.

When He Xu came back, the two children who were initially infected had just been discharged from the hospital.

The crisis in the family compound was resolved and the children began to play in the open space again.

It’s just that Chen Tang heard that the son of the deputy commander of the second regiment was originally a very smart child, but after having a fever this time, he seemed to have become much dumber.

Chen Tang encountered this once. She was strolling outside with little He Zhi in her arms. The child was chasing the person in front of him and passed by her. The two children in front were teasing him and throwing sandbags in their hands back and forth. He didn't feel tired and kept chasing.

The two children touched their heads, looked at each other, and asked him if he was really stupid.

The child was stunned for a moment, then quickly cursed back.

There should be no problem with the IQ, but the reaction is definitely slower than before.

He Xu came back in the evening.

Xiao Hezhi was sleeping soundly, but Chen Tang suddenly woke up and was about to take the flashlight when He Xu called him, "It's me."

Chen Tang patted his chest in fear: "You came back if you wanted to, why are you sneaking around?"

He Xu hugged the person and kissed him, but was pushed away by Chen Tang in disgust: "I'll boil some water for you, you go take a bath."

"OK,"

He Xu stopped teasing her and asked directly: "Is the child okay?"

On his way back, he had heard the deputy leader talk about the cave virus.

Chen Tang told him about her worries these days. He Xu heard that she couldn't sleep in the middle of the night and was worried that something might happen to the child, so he hugged her and kissed her forehead.

"I will take good care of the children during these few days of rest, so you can sleep peacefully."

Chen Tang rolled his eyes at him and said, "You're so tired that your stubble is showing. Take a rest first. I'll go boil some water for you."

He Xu grinned, he could actually take a cold shower, all the new recruits went through that.

But he knew Shen Tang was worried about him.

So he would not refuse her kindness.

Shen Tang didn't disturb Aunt Zhang. He took a flashlight and went to the kitchen. The fire started, and the two sat in the kitchen and talked in private.

He Xu's mission was confidential, and Chen Tang did not ask him. Most of the time, it was He Xu who asked Chen Tang what he had done these days.

After the water boiled, she asked He Xu to fetch some hot water. Thinking that he would be hungry after coming back in the middle of the night, she cooked some noodles for him and also made him a poached egg.

He Xu came out of the shower and saw the poached egg floating in the bowl, and his heart felt warm.

"I'll wipe your hair."

Chen Tang asked He Xu to eat slowly and took a clean towel to gently wipe his dripping shaved hair.

He Xu watched her busying around and left the poached egg in the bowl without touching it. He waited for her to come over before he quietly told her to open her mouth and fed the poached egg into her mouth.

Chen Tang didn't want to eat at first. She had already brushed her teeth at night, but He Xu was coaxing her and asking if she disliked his saliva. She only bit half of the poached egg, then rolled her eyes at him and told him to eat quickly.

After He Xu finished eating, he went to wash the dishes, played with her for a while, and then lay down in the warm bed.

"He Xu, Xiaobao just got sick, and it's cold this year. I was thinking why don't we not go back to the capital this year?"

He Xu touched her long hair. The two old men must have wanted to see their great-grandson, but as elders they also understood that it was cold.

"Okay, I'll call back tomorrow."

Little He Zhi woke up happily, but when he turned around, he saw He Xu's face, which he hadn't even had time to shave. His smile froze on his face immediately.

He Xu tapped the child's little nose and said, "It seems that he still recognizes his father. Do you want him to hold you?"

Having not seen He Xu for such a long time, little He Zhi still missed him a little, so he stretched out his hand and let him hug him.

He Zhi dressed the child and prepared some milk powder to feed him. After a while, Chen Tang woke up and saw that He Xu had shaved, revealing a handsome face.

Shen Tang's mood improved for the whole day.

Director Liang sent someone to inform her that her article had passed the newspaper's review and asked her to go to the Propaganda Department to collect her royalties.

Chen Tang walked to the Propaganda Department and saw a person she had never seen before standing at the door, so she took a few more glances at him.

The woman looked very young, with good features and somewhat dark skin. She was wearing a floral shirt and blue pants, which made her skin look even darker.

"Chen Tang, you are here. This is your manuscript fee. Sign here." Director Liang said.

Chen Tang walked over and saw an unopened envelope: "Director, you also polished that article, did you only write my name?"

Director Liang smiled and waved his hand: "I just polished a few words, it's not a big deal, you wrote it well."

After she finished speaking, she introduced to Chen Tang: "You came at the right time. This is the new wife of your regiment leader. Her name is Xu Xuan. She is also the niece of Deputy Director Xu. She came to report to the Propaganda Department today. You are from the same regiment, so you can get to know each other."

Director Liang introduced the name Shen Tang again.

Xu Xuan smiled gently and nodded to Shen Tang: “Comrade Shen, I just came to the military region, please take care of me.”

Chen Tang was puzzled, she knew that the new leader was the former deputy leader of the first group, who was 35 years old this year and had already married and had children.

His wife has always kept a low profile in the family compound, and many people in the compound may not even remember such a person.

But even if I can't remember, I won't recognize the wrong person.

Captain Sun just went home for a visit, why did his wife suddenly change to someone else?

Director Liang looked at Chen Tang's face full of doubt and her expression became a little stiff, but she couldn't tell Chen Tang about this directly.

Xu Xuan pursed his lips slightly and said calmly: "Comrade Chen Tang, I just arrived at the family compound yesterday and haven't had time to get to know you. When I'm free in two days, my man and I will invite you to come over for dinner."

Chen Tang: "Okay, thank you sister-in-law then."

She called her sister-in-law, and Xu Xuan's complexion became noticeably better, with the corners of his lips raised in a hint of pride.

Chen Tang pretended not to see it and kept walking towards home, thinking that He Xu must know what was going on.

It’s time to eat melon! It’s time to eat melon!

After returning home, Shen Tang threw the letter into the room and turned to the yard.

He Xu was still playing with the child, and she sat down on the swing next to him.

"Why did your captain change his wife after returning home?"
