It has been half a year since the two got married. A lot of things have happened in this half year, and they are all in Fu Wencheng's mind.
The past is like a movie playing, constantly appearing in my mind and then disappearing.
"Grandpa, I was wrong."
"Grandpa agrees with your desire to protect her, but we can't generalize. You and Le Yao have similar personalities, so one of you must change. You can make progress together. One of you can be in front and the other can be behind, or you can both be in front at the same time. It's not set in stone, don't you understand?"
"I understand, Grandpa."
Fu Wencheng used to always want to be at the forefront of everything and protect his wife. He was somewhat patriarchal and always believed that this was what a man should do.
In fact, his wife is not a bad person. She can stand on her own and has the ability to protect him.
The next morning, Ming Leyao took out clothes from the closet, trying this and that, but she always felt that they were not formal enough. The old man saw that it was getting late and his granddaughter had not yet been dressed. He asked Fu Wencheng and then he knew Ming Leyao's concerns. He stood outside the door and said with a smile, "Leyao, just be casual. The leader is meeting you at his own home this time, and the purpose is to relieve you of your psychological burden."
"Okay, Grandpa, I understand."
Ming Leyao had a plan in mind and didn't wear any new clothes. She wore black pants, a white shirt, and a pink and purple knitted jacket on the outside. She braided her hair into a side braid and put it on her shoulders.
She put some skin care lotion on her face, and didn't put on any makeup, not even lipstick, and just quietly followed the old man out.
When the vehicle arrived at the administrative compound, there was already a queue at the gate.
"Grandpa? So many people want to go in?"
"The people living in the administrative compound are quite important, so the gate inspection is quite troublesome. If you are a visitor, you must have someone inside to inform the gate guard before you can be let in. If you don't, you can only wait at the gate and the gate guard will notify you."
“Understandable.”
After all, the country's top leaders and many political leaders live here, so we really need to be cautious.
Fifteen minutes later, the vehicle drove into the inspection area of the gate. The guard Xiao Li who was driving the car reported his name and the person he was visiting, which surprised the two young soldiers at the gate for a moment.
Big leader....
I haven't had guests at home for a long time.
Those who can be met at home are extremely important and close people to the big boss.
The two young soldiers carefully verified the information of everyone. There was no need to call to confirm Mr. He's identity information, but Fu Wencheng and Ming Leyao were here for the first time, so they called the military district to confirm that there was such a person in the military district and that the two were husband and wife. Only then did they complete the registration and let them pass.
A simple phone call from the gatekeeper caused quite a stir in the military district where Fu Wencheng was located.
Soon, rumors spread that Captain Fu was personally received by the top leader. Even the highest commander of the military region heard the news. He specially called the newly appointed political commissar to ask about the situation.
"Chief of Staff, it was indeed the call from the gatekeeper at the senior leader's residence, verifying Captain Fu's information. I just called the operator and verified it."
"Isn't Captain Fu recovering from his injuries? Why did he suddenly go to see the leader?"
"Well... I heard that Captain Fu was injured this time, and the senior leaders took it very seriously. It should be reasonable for him to meet with him in person, right?"
It seemed a bit far-fetched, but the two of them really couldn't think of any other reason.
The chief of staff tapped the table lightly with two fingers, lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said to the political commissar, "Are the results of the investigation into Captain Fu's injury released?"
"It has come out. It is indeed our internal problem."
"Then we should handle it as soon as possible. You prepare the official documents, and I will stamp them and send them out immediately."
"Yes, Chief of Staff."
"Captain Fu brought everyone back safely this time, which is considered a first-class merit."
"Yes, Chief of Staff, Captain Fu's personal achievements... are worthy of promotion, but his years of military service... are not very long."
"Since you can be promoted, then submit a report. Don't worry, no one will object this time."
"Yes, Chief of Staff."
....
After Ming Leyao got off the car, she supported her grandfather and slowly walked up the stairs. Before she could knock on the door, the dark brown door was opened from the inside.
"Is it Mr. He and his family?"
"That's right, Secretary Lu."
"Old man, please come in, the leader is waiting for you."
"good."
Old Man He walked in with steady steps. Ming Leyao had a faint smile on her face. She and Fu Wencheng supported the old man on both sides. Guard Xiao Li lowered his head, holding the medicine box that Ming Leyao needed.
The leader’s house looks like a three-story building from the outside. It doesn’t look very big, but I didn’t expect it to be much more spacious inside.
I don’t know if it’s because the furniture is relatively simple or because of the visual difference.
Following Secretary-General Lu through the living room, dining room, and up the stairs, the footsteps of several people sounded particularly clear on the solid wood floor.
Finally, the few of them stopped in front of a door. Secretary-General Lu knocked gently and let them in.
"The leader is waiting inside, please go in, old man."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work."
"This is what I should do. I'll have someone bring tea to you guys right away."
He stretched out his hand and gestured for invitation, and after several people entered, Secretary-General Lu turned around and left.
Ming Leyao had guessed where they would meet, even a more private place like the study, but she had never thought of the bedroom...
The old man on the bed had white hair and his face was full of traces of time. His thin body was leaning against the bed, holding a book in his hand, reading quietly.
Only when he heard the voice did he close the book, with a kind and gentle smile on his face.
"Old He, it's really not easy to invite you here."
As the old man was speaking, he wanted to stand up and greet him.
Old Master He quickly took a few steps forward, helped the man sit down on the bed, and spoke in a kind tone.
"You are my only hope. I am not a stranger. You can just sit by the bed and wait. I can come over by myself."
"Am I welcoming you? I am welcoming our little hero. You are so lucky, old man. Not only do you have a good granddaughter, but you also have a good grandson-in-law. I am so envious."
Mr. He was quite pleased with the compliment from his big boss, but he did not praise him back and just quickly changed the subject.
"It's only been a few days since we last met, how come you've lost some weight?"
"It's the transition from spring to summer, and my appetite has been poor. You know that."
"I've advised you so many times to find a nanny to take care of an old man like me, why don't you find one for yourself?"
"I'm used to it. I'm used to it."
The big boss smiled and waved his hands, not really caring about this kind of thing.
