Time is short and the task is heavy.
"One week..."
He turned around and spoke with a serious face, his tone full of unquestionable toughness: "There is still a week before the heavy snowfall that the weather station said. During this week... give me more practice. If I can't achieve the effect I want before the New Year, it's not impossible to change people."
Seeing someone trying to refute, he said sternly: "I know that changing people now means starting all over again, but so what? If they are not good enough, then let's change someone who is more capable..."
"You know, next October 1st, the audience will not only be our countrymen, but also many invited foreign guests. I don't want my soldiers to be embarrassed in front of the whole world..."
Mu Lianshen looked at a few of them for a few more times, "I just don't believe it. If female soldiers can do it, why can't those big and strong men do it? Go back and practice more."
"As long as you don't die from practicing, you can always succeed."
“Can it be done?”
"able!"
In the following week, Mu Lianshen did resort to cruel methods, and even Fu Xiao began to understand the nicknames that Lu Yuan and others had given him behind his back.
But fortunately, the time was not wasted and there was finally a good result.
After seeing the final results, he stopped shaking his head and talked about the holiday when the meeting started again.
"Go back and arrange a date with your respective soldiers. See you on the eighth day of the first lunar month..."
Without waiting for everyone to show their joy, Mu Lianshen added: "I don't hope that after the New Year, all the training I have done will be lost..."
"yes..."
Mu Lianshen waved his hand, signaling them to go down.
Wu Chengfeng came to him and said, "Don't be too nervous. There are still nine months after the New Year."
"Is nine months a long time?" Mu Lianshen took back his hand that was pinching his forehead and looked at him with a frown. "If you want to be in the best condition, you must always be strict and can't relax for a moment..."
"Yes, you are right. But now we are resting, so take a good rest..." Wu Chengfeng put his arm around his shoulders, "Come to my place for a drink?"
Mu Lianshen pulled his arm away, picked up the coat on the back of the chair and put it on. "I have to go home. You should go home early too. If it snows, you won't be able to go back."
Wu Chengfeng glanced at the foggy sky outside and followed him out. "This weather really doesn't look right. I'm going home too."
The two walked out side by side.
"Hasn't there been any news from Lu Yuan yet?"
Wu Chengfeng lowered his head, "No,"
Mu Lianshen frowned: "Tell those people you have scattered outside to be careful. If they encounter a telegram with an unknown signal, report it..."
"I already informed you..."
He also notified the people in each post office to report immediately if they received any military emergency distress telegrams.
But there is no news.
Mu Lianshen patted his shoulder and said, "Be more careful."
"Well," he asked when he saw him stop, "You're not leaving?"
"Well, I'll wait a moment, An An,"
Wu Chengfeng smiled and nodded, "Okay, I'll go first."
"See you later..."
Mu Lianshen glanced around, stood in a sheltered place, lit a cigarette, and waited while smoking.
"dad..."
Fu Xiao walked towards him quickly, "Why don't you wait in the car at the door? Are you cold..."
Mu Lianshen threw the cigarette butt aside and put the coat in his hand on her, "It's not cold..."
"Hey, Dad, you can just wear it, I'm not cold at all," Fu Xiao put his hand in his palm, "Look, isn't it warm?"
Fu Xiao returned the coat to him and walked ahead, "It's so cold, let's go home quickly."
"Dad, carry me on your back..." Her feet hurt.
"Okay," Mu Lianshen walked in front of her, squatted down, and carried her on his back.
His tone was a little heavy: "An An, Dad is sorry..."
Fu Xiao knew why he said that and smiled, "You're right. Since I chose to participate, I was prepared for the hard work."
Mu Lianshen tilted his head to look at her, "Well, when we get home, if your mother gives me trouble, you have to say something for me."
"Haha, okay..."
Fu Xiao leaned on his shoulder and said with a smile: "But Dad, I know what you look like when you are strict..."
"I can't help it. It's such a big deal. It's not a big deal to take responsibility for the mistake. But if I embarrass myself in front of others, I will be too ashamed to face anyone..."
"Dad, you are awesome..."
Mu Lianshen laughed: "My daughter is the best."
"hey-hey..."
They got into the car and drove towards home.
After returning home, Fu Jingshu quickly invited the two of them in, "It's just right, we're having mutton soup at home today... You two can roast some hot soup first and warm your bodies later..."
Holding the soft Mu Mu into his arms, Fu Xiao looked at her, “Mom, isn’t Shen Xingzhou at home?”
"We bought too many coal briquettes. Let him go with your brother to deliver some to your aunt and her family."
"Oh," Fu Xiao kissed Mumu's little face and asked with a smile, "Have we had enough to eat? I think it's going to snow today,"
Grandpa Mu, who was holding Chao Chao, said, "That's enough. Xingzhou bought dozens of kilograms of beef and mutton today. The kitchen and the warehouse are almost full. It's enough to eat for a long time..."
A cold wind blew, as cold as a knife, chilling to the bone.
The snow fluttered down from the sky, covering the vast earth, and everything seemed to be covered with a layer of white velvet blanket.
Soon, the earth was covered with snow.
Shen Xingzhou and Fu Shaoyu braved the snow to return home, and when they saw her, they quickened their pace in surprise, "You're back?"
