"It's born! Look at the time!" Wang Youyou shouted happily, "It's a boy!"
The umbilical cord was very long, so she lifted the baby up to show the mother, and then immediately placed the baby on the mother's belly.
The baby opened his mouth wide, looking like he wanted to cry but couldn't.
Wang Youyou helped the baby clean the little dirt in his mouth, and then patted the baby's feet with a little force.
The baby immediately started crying loudly and clearly, proving that the baby was healthy!
Chen Fang hurriedly brought a blanket and towel.
Wang Youyou put the baby in the cradle, then took the towel and gently wiped off the vernix caseosa on the baby's body.
Sun Qingguo did not dare to delay at all. He took advantage of the opportunity and drove to the hospital as fast as possible.
Wang Youyou waited in the car until the doctor came to cut the umbilical cord before she got out.
Sun Qingguo and Chen Fang, one accompanied the mother in labor and the other looked after the baby.
Wang Youyou left silently. She was unfamiliar with the place, so she wanted to take a bus back first, change into clean clothes, and then go out to look for a job.
Now her clothes are stained with the mother's blood, making it inconvenient for her to go anywhere.
After wandering around for a long time, I finally found the bus stop.
I spent ten cents and took the bus back to the military district’s family compound.
She didn't dare sit in the front, so she sat at the back of the bus.
Fortunately, there weren't many people and I was able to sit next to the window so I could enjoy the scenery along the way.
…
On the other side, Lu Xingfei came to the chief's office.
Chief Liu Qinmin is studying the battle plan.
Lu Xingfei came in and saluted, saying, "Commander, I'm here to explain the marriage."
Liu Qinmin put down the pen in his hand, raised his head, smiled kindly and said, "Xingfei is back? Sit down and talk."
"Yes." Lu Xingfei sat upright on the sofa next to the coffee table in front.
Liu Qinmin, holding an enamel cup, sat on the chair next to him.
Putting down the enamel cup, he said slowly: "Xingfei, I understand everything about your marriage. I admire your broad-mindedness."
Lu Xingfei remained calm and spoke seriously.
"Commander, you're too kind! Wang Youyou is my elementary school classmate and a fellow villager. I can't just stand by and watch someone die. As a soldier, serving my country and my people, I should set a good example."
"Well said." Liu Qinmin laughed happily. "Xingfei! I want to ask you something now. Comrade Wang Youyou has a serious problem. Are you really willing to accept her?"
He found out that Wang Youyou married Lu Xingfei out of spite.
Wang Youyou has a very bad reputation in Shitou Village. She is greedy, lazy, disrespectful to elders, arrogant and domineering, and has a bully stepmother. In short, no one dares to marry her.
Fortunately, Lu Xingfei gave in at that time and saved Wang Youyou's reputation.
Wang Youyou's second grandfather was a martyr who died for his country at the age of sixteen. For the sake of the martyr's descendants, as a soldier, Lu Xingfei's marriage can be regarded as a way to live up to the martyr's fate.
"Yes." Lu Xingfei answered without thinking.
Liu Qinmin was very satisfied with him and couldn't help but nod in praise.
"In that case, I have good news for you. With the approval of your superiors, I will make an exception and promote you to the rank of battalion commander. From now on, you will be in charge of the Third Battalion."
"Yes, I will obey orders, follow instructions, and do a good job for the Third Battalion." Lu Xingfei's mouth twitched slightly, and he was very excited.
Sun Qingguo waited for three years for the position of battalion commander of the third battalion, but he was surpassed by him.
His next goal is to become the group leader.
Liu Qinmin picked up the enamel cup, took a sip of tea, and then said, "I'm almost at retirement age. I'm optimistic about you. You're young and promising. Work hard! Come take over my job when the time comes."
Lu Xingfei stood up and saluted: "Thank you for your favoritism, Commander. As long as I can serve the country and benefit the people, I will do anything without regrets!"
Liu Qinmin was happy that he had such a spirit of sacrifice and hard work.
He continued, "Okay, Xingfei, that's enough for today. I have something else to do, so you go ahead and do your work!"
"Yes, Chief." Lu Xingfei said respectfully, then stood up and left the chief's office.
He was promoted to battalion commander, making him the youngest battalion commander in their regiment. I guess Old Sun would be jealous.
After all, he had just been promoted to deputy battalion commander half a year ago.
As he was thinking, he suddenly saw Zhang Jingxu walking towards him with a dusty face.
"What's the matter?" He took two quick steps forward.
Zhang Jingxu's face was gloomy, and he shook his head. Suddenly, as if remembering something, he said happily, "Have you finished talking with the commander? How was it?"
"The commander said that I would be promoted to the commander of the third battalion." Lu Xingfei answered honestly.
Changing the subject, he asked Zhang Jingxu, "Are you really okay? Do you really treat me as a brother? You can't hide anything from me."
Zhang Jingxu said helplessly: "My mother came to me and asked me to take a leave to go on a blind date. Didn't I come to ask for leave from the leader? I really admire my mother. She is afraid that I won't be able to find a wife."
"It's time for you to get married. You're not young anymore. If you meet a good girl today, you must cherish her." Lu Xingfei gave him an affirmative look.
Zhang Jingxu shook his head: "No, no, no, I'm still young. It's not too late to get married at 35."
He won't get married until he gets the position of group leader.
Now that Lu Xing has ascended, there is another competitor, what a headache!
Lu Xingfei's troops have something to do, so they'll leave first.
Liu Qinmin chased out and shouted, "Xingfei, wait, help me."
"Jingxu is here too?"
"Commander, I'm leaving early. I have something to do at home."
"Okay."
After saying that, he said to Lu Xingfei: "Xingfei, go drive, I want to take a ride."
