The flood was effectively controlled, and the soldiers who came to support from all over the country arranged their return trips.
The subsequent post-disaster reconstruction work was assisted by various grassroots organizations, and for the senior officials living in the military region compound, they finally had a chance to breathe.
On the first day that Fu Siyi went to kindergarten, Fu Jingchen took over Sun Shifu's job and prepared to drive a few people there and then go to the 24th Army.
Before the car drove out of the gate, I saw a man jogging in front of me, looking very anxious.
Fu Siyi was sharp-eyed and quickly moved to the car window, pointing outside and saying, "Aunt Feifei."
"Gao Fei," Qin Dongling also rolled down the car window, "What happened? Why are you so anxious?"
Seeing that it was them, Gao Fei breathed a sigh of relief, "My dad fainted and was hospitalized. I'm going to the hospital."
As a doctor who saves lives and heals the wounded, President Gao has more things to do. Jiang Yuman has seen him twice since the flood, and his dark circles have become heavier each time.
Upon hearing this, she quickly said, "Then get in the car, we'll take you there first."
“Thank you so much.”
"Why are you being so polite to us?" Jiang Yuman didn't care and opened the car door.
Gao Fei did not delay and got into the car. He was uneasy all the way and hurriedly opened the door and jumped out before the car stopped.
Fu Siyi was watching intently. Seeing this, Jiang Yuman tapped his forehead with her finger and said, "Your Aunt Feifei is too anxious. This behavior is not safe at all. If you imitate me, I will punish you."
"No." Fu Siyi pouted. Seeing the car driving back, he rolled his eyes and asked, "Is kindergarten fun?"
"It's quite fun, a group of kids about your age." Jiang Yuman said.
Qin Dongling said, "Xiaoyi, have you forgotten what you promised grandpa yesterday?"
Fu Siyi nodded. They had made a promise last night that he would not cry when he went to kindergarten.
"So good." Qin Dongling smiled.
The General Military Region Kindergarten is right next to the General Military Region compound. You can get there by going around. Jiang Yuman picked up Fu Siyi and led him to the door.
The teacher was standing at the door, and several parents were looking inside at the railing. They could faintly hear crying coming from the classroom.
Seeing them coming, the teacher put the pick-up card on Xiaoyi and coaxed him to walk inside.
Fu Siyi, who was being led by the teacher, looked very obedient and didn't cry. He just kept looking back at the three adults.
Looking at the child's dependent eyes, Jiang Yuman felt sad and reluctant to let him go. She could only tell herself that Xiaoyi would grow up slowly. These were all inevitable steps. Keeping him at home all the time would only harm him. He needed to be independent...
After finally finishing comforting myself, I turned around and found that my father and husband who were behind me were gone.
After looking around, I saw two people at the railing.
"Dad, let's go back." Jiang Yuman stepped forward and said, "Let's buy some fruit and visit Uncle Gao."
Qin Dongling didn't even turn his head and said directly: "You guys go, I'll go back by myself later."
This place is not far from the military compound. Jiang Yuman knew that he was reluctant to leave Xiaoyi. He exchanged glances with Fu Jingchen, and they walked to the car together.
"It's true that generations are close to each other." After getting on the bus, Jiang Yuman sighed as she watched her father's back blending into the group.
In other words, my parents-in-law are not at home, otherwise there would be two more figures at the kindergarten door.
Fu Jingchen didn't say anything and looked very melancholy.
The two of them arrived at the hospital and checked the ward. When they were carrying the fruit upstairs, they passed a soldier in the corridor.
Jiang Yuman's mind was not on this, but Fu Jingchen turned around and glanced at the man.
In the ward, Dean Gao had regained consciousness and was delighted to see them, while Gao Fei seemed a little dazed and nearly scalded her hand when she went to get some water.
"Why are you so absent-minded?" Jiang Yuman asked. "Uncle Gao is just tired. It's nothing serious. Don't think too much about it."
"That's not it."
After a pause, Gao Fei looked at Jiang Yuman and asked, "Do you remember what I told you before?"
As they stared at each other, Jiang Yuman was struck by a sudden realization. "You mean..."
Seeing that she understood, Gao Fei retracted his gaze and stared at the ground, "This time he actually came to Beijing because of the flood, and he was the one who sent my dad to the hospital."
After returning from outside Xinjiang, Gao Fei had gradually forgotten about that incident and was no longer as eager to go back as when he first came back.
Yes, life is so dramatic, the two met unexpectedly in the hospital.
And she sadly discovered that even after so much time had passed, her heart still beat fast when she saw him.
"You two are quite compatible," Jiang Yuman reasoned. "Not many people come from outside Xinjiang. He must be worried about you, too."
Gao Fei lowered his head, obviously uneasy.
After taking the water cup back, Jiang Yuman sat for a while before Fu Jingchen came out of the ward.
On the way, she concealed Gao Fei's personal feelings and told him about how someone carried Dean Gao to the hospital.
"I saw him," Fu Jingchen said, "it's Chu Wensu."
Chu Wensu?
Jiang Yuman was stunned for a moment before she remembered that this person was Chu Wenzhou's elder brother.
Her mood suddenly became complicated. Although Chu Wensu was incompatible with the entire Chu family, as long as he had the surname Chu, he would always have to bear a bad reputation.
Chu Wensu probably doesn't want to implicate Gao Fei.
But in fact, if you want to be in the army, you have to rely on your ability to speak. Although family influence is important, it is not a decisive factor. Just like when the Fu family was not pacified, Fu Jingchen was able to turn things around on his own.
Thinking about this, Jiang Yuman's gaze remained on Fu Jingchen.
Coming back to her senses, the car stopped at the gate of the General Military Region Art Troupe. Fu Jingchen turned around and asked her, "When will Xiaoyi be out of school this afternoon?"
Jiang Yuman said a time and chuckled, "I thought you weren't uncomfortable."
"How can that be?" Fu Jingchen curled his lips. "Dad is the one who feels the most uncomfortable. I just passed by and saw him still standing in the kindergarten."
Jiang Yuman was lost in thought and hadn't noticed. Upon hearing this, she couldn't help but laugh and say, "Isn't he going to spend half a day in the army and half a day looking after his grandson?"
Fu Jingchen didn't say anything, he didn't dare to guarantee it.
"Okay, I'm going to get busy first. Come pick me up early this afternoon, and we'll go pick up Xiaoyi together."
"good."
Because she was thinking about Xiaoyi's first day of school, Jiang Yuman looked at the time frequently in the afternoon. This was the first time she was so restless.
When the time came, I walked to the door and found Fu Jingchen there.
The wife and he hurriedly drove to the kindergarten, but the teacher said that Fu Siyi had already been picked up.
"Xiaoyi's grandfather came very early this afternoon," the teacher said with a smile. "He stood for a long time before leaving this morning, too. He really loves the child."
Jiang Yuman couldn't help laughing. When Xiaoyi saw her back home, he pouted and blamed them for not coming to pick him up right away.
The two men carefully measured their son and were relieved to see that his eyes were not red.
He was really easy to coax. He would just say that his mother was wrong, and then his father would hold him and sit on his shoulders, and he would reluctantly forgive them.
"Dad," Jiang Yuman said after coaxing the child to the kitchen to make pear soup. She said to Qin Dongling, "Take care of yourself. You don't have to wait outside the door all the time. Isn't he doing well?"
"I'm always worried." Qin Dongling said.
Of course, there was a deeper reason: he had never raised a child before, and he felt he owed it to his daughter. Watching his grandson go to kindergarten was like raising his own daughter all over again.
