October is the golden month, a time of national celebration.
In the courtyard of a traditional Chinese courtyard house, a large-screen color TV is mounted in the middle.
Rows of viewers sat in front of the television, all the children's parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents gathered together, their eyes glued to the screen, their expressions radiant.
Red flags fluttered, and majestic music resounded.
The imposing formation, the spirited faces, the resounding commands, and the perfectly synchronized movements were exhilarating to watch.
Each fighter jet is like a soaring eagle, majestically flying over the vast field.
Each majestic tank, like a steel lion, marches proudly into the solemn holy land.
Each new mobile artillery platform testifies to the indomitable spirit of the Chinese nation.
Every machine gun embodies the indomitable spirit of our nation.
The solemn scenes and magnificent landscapes all proclaim the grandeur of our great nation.
In the midst of my surging emotions, a group of small figures came into view.
Leading the way in front of the convoy was a small off-road vehicle.
Two people in one car, one driving and the other posing.
With great pride and high spirits.
The little figure carries a colorful toy gun to his chest, staring straight ahead, displaying a dignified and soldierly demeanor.
"Look, look! They're coming out! The children are coming out!"
"The first car was my six-year-old and six-year-old. The little guys were dressed in clean and tidy navy uniforms, and with their serious little faces, they looked quite convincing."
"That's my granddaughter, haha, she's daydreaming, peeking at the line next to her. Look at that envious yet determined little expression, my family is probably going to produce a heroine."
"Is my little rascal getting too excited? He was perfectly normal during rehearsal, so why is he looking around like this now?"
"He's a little boy, with so many cars and airplanes around, it's no wonder he's curious. My son is pretty much the same, thankfully he doesn't have a needle in his butt, but his eyes keep rolling around."
"Hmm, my granddaughter might be intimidated by the solemn scene. She seems a little nervous, but fortunately we've rehearsed, so it shouldn't be a big problem."
Parents were talking enthusiastically, and the crowd reading the book was also excited.
"The little kids' cars are so cool! They don't look like military vehicles, they look more like children's toy cars."
“The paint guns they have are so cool. I wish I could buy one for my child.”
"Hmm, I feel like I've seen these kids somewhere before, especially those two little sisters in front. They look so familiar, but I can't quite remember where I've seen them before."
"Oh my, the little one is so cute and brave. There are so many people around, and he's not scared at all. My kid would probably pee his pants if it were him."
"So this is what other people's kids are like? Our kids? Look, they're peeing and getting dirty over there."
"Ahhh, it's them, Time and them, I know who they are, I know, wow, they're so cute."
"..."
In Shanghai, the Zhou and Han families gathered early in the morning, eager to catch a glimpse of their precious child.
They were not disappointed.
"Da Liu and Xiao Liu are just like their mother back then," Han Shufang praised.
Song Zhouheng also praised her highly, saying, "She's just as good as our great-grandmother, no wonder she's from our family."
Ninth Sister-in-law hugged her son and leaned closer, pointing out to him which one was her cousin.
"Son, those are your eldest and second eldest cousins. They are little heroes. You should learn from them and protect your older sisters when you grow up."
The little guy is only a little over a year old and doesn't understand anything; his eyes are following the car.
"Car, sit still, with your sister."
"Okay, sit down. Aunt Shishi has a gift for An'an. Great-Grandpa and Great-Grandma will bring it back later."
"You must remember your aunt's kindness."
"Auntie, hello, sister, car."
The military parade was also being broadcast on the island.
Shishi had already informed everyone that she had prepared the color TV in advance, because her daughter's charm couldn't be missed by her hometown, the island.
She wants to tell everyone that she is the best, and her child is amazing too!
"Da Liu and Xiao Liu are indeed descendants of soldiers; they've got that kind of temperament down perfectly," Political Commissar Li was the first to praise.
"Yes, who would have thought that our king of destruction would transform into an adorable little soldier?"
Chief of Staff Ding, who was Xiao Dan's former neighbor, had many memories.
Just as Shen Yijin was about to praise him, his sharp eyes caught a flash of light, like an electric current.
"That looked like a frog, what's it doing in the female soldiers' ranks?"
"Where? I can't see it. Are you seeing things?" Chief of Staff Ding asked, puzzled.
The image flashed by so quickly that no one else noticed.
Shen Yijin thought that Shishi would definitely be there, and if she was there, Guagua would definitely be there too. He shouldn't be mistaken.
"Wow, he's the boss."
"Boss is amazing, he's on TV."
"They can drive! I'm so envious."
The children's eyes sparkled with joy, their happiness overflowing as they finally met their friends.
Shishi sat on the terrace with her pregnant belly. Because she was sitting high up, she could see far. Looking around, she saw a dense mass of heads, row upon row, all of similar height, and they looked very neat.
Guagua could have broadcast it to her, but she was heavily pregnant and didn't want to come. However, the big boss insisted that she see the fruits of his labor in person.
Everything that flies in the sky, runs on the ground, fires cannons, and makes loud banging noises—all owe their existence to her.
Okay, fine, I'll come and see. And I must say, watching it on TV is a completely different experience from being there in person. Right now, all she can think about is the buzzing sound of fighter jets circling overhead.
Quarrel.
Yes, that's how she felt.
During wartime, the best strategy is to win by surprise. Making a sound is like alerting the enemy, which is inappropriate, really inappropriate.
"Stinky Egg, bring Guagua here, I need to ask it something."
