Mr. Huo endured it without saying a word, and then he limped over to open the door.
Mother Huo noticed something was wrong immediately, "What's wrong with your leg?"
Brother Huo, who was following behind me, spoke quickly, "Mom, you've been gone for more than a month. Dad missed you so much. When he heard you were back, he was so excited..."
Before he could finish his words, he was glared back at by Huo's father.
Mother Huo was stunned.
Then he glanced at Mr. Huo.
Seeing that his ears were a little red, I instantly found it very funny.
They are an old couple who have been together for decades. Is it necessary for them to do this?
Like a young boy!
I was very happy, but I thought: "Can you still go on stage like this?"
Just now she heard from her son on the way that the commendation meeting would be officially held in the conference hall at nine o'clock in the morning of the next day.
Today is my daughter-in-law's first round, and Mr. Huo is one of the award presenters. It would be such a pity if she couldn't go on stage today.
Father Huo endured the pain and said, "No, it's just a bump."
"Just try to be brave."
How could Mrs. Huo not know him?
She glanced at Mr. Huo in a reproachful manner and said, "Go back to the house later and I'll rub you with medicinal wine."
Upon hearing this, Father Huo smiled and said, "Yeah."
It was already late, so Mrs. Huo picked out a few important items to talk about, and then distributed the gifts she brought back to each room.
Originally, she hadn't planned to bring these.
Mr. and Mrs. Lu were really too enthusiastic. How could Mrs. Huo alone win over the two of them?
In the end, there was no choice but to accept all these kindnesses.
Looking at the pile of things on the table, Mother Huo sighed.
Then he smiled and said, "Well, they will move back to Beijing soon, otherwise..."
"What?" Grandpa Huo and Grandma Huo looked over at the same time after hearing this.
The others also stopped what they were doing.
"Mom, are my eldest brother and his wife going back to Beijing to settle down?"
Mrs. Huo nodded, and then told her that their family of six was planning to settle in Beijing.
Although they had prepared themselves mentally, when they learned that it was Lu's father and mother who took the initiative to propose it, the old man and the others still had tears in their eyes.
The whole family was so excited about the news that they couldn't sleep.
So is Jiang Si.
After taking a shower, I lay on the bed and tossed and turned.
Finally, Huo Tingzhou reached out and pulled her into his arms.
"Can't sleep?"
What responded to him was Jiang Si's sudden turn over.
The next second, her arms moved and wrapped around his neck.
Maybe it was because he was going to stay away from her today.
Or maybe it's because I've accumulated too many emotions recently that need to be released.
In short, Jiang Si was particularly enthusiastic that night.
Huo Tingzhou was stunned at first, then he reacted and immediately turned his passive position into active one.
…
The next day was the day when the commendation meeting was officially held.
Formal attire is essential for such occasions.
Jiang Si specially changed into a proper woolen suit, and her hair was neatly tucked behind her ears, leaving only her full and smooth forehead exposed.
Just after eight o'clock in the morning, the family arrived outside the conference hall early.
After passing through several days of strict security checks, Jiang Si followed the crowd to the Great Hall.
This commendation meeting was held in the conference hall of the Great Hall.
Under the guidance of the staff, Jiang Si quickly found her seat.
After sitting down, she looked around.
There were many people attending the conference this time. On the left were soldiers wearing various military uniforms, and on the right were military family representatives wearing formal attire like her.
Although she had visited the Great Hall before, she had only taken a quick look inside as a tourist.
This is completely incomparable to sitting in a chair and receiving inspection and commendation from leaders.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the commendation ceremony officially began with the solemn national anthem.
When the whole audience stood up and sang the national anthem, Jiang Si's eyes couldn't help but become sore.
Next, the leader came to the stage to speak.
When I saw the leaders who I could only see on TV and in newspapers at that time walk onto the stage.
Jiang Si was completely unable to control her emotions at this moment.
Through her tearful eyes, she glanced at the others.
Everyone seems to be like this.
Jiang Si was immediately relieved.
In the end, it was the leader's powerful speech that brought everyone back to their senses.
"Comrades, today we are holding a grand gathering here..."
"To commend the outstanding individuals and collectives who have made outstanding contributions to national defense construction over the past few years..."
After a brief speech, the commendation ceremony officially began.
The first award is given to the national "Model of Supporting the Government and Loving the People", and most of the recipients are active military personnel.
The winning individuals will be awarded honorary titles, certificates and medals.
Those whose names were called went on stage one by one to receive their awards.
There are dozens of award winners, and each person has to give a speech to express their gratitude for the award.
By the time this series of processes was completed, it was already past eleven in the morning.
After a round of warm applause.
The leader took the stage again.
"Next, we will present the award to the representative of the 'National Model of Patriotism and Support for the Military'. The winner is—"
