Chapter 499 Finale (Part 2)
After it was over, the two of them lay on the bed, and Lu Jianchuan said, "Wife, after the New Year, I might have to go to the south."
He didn't elaborate, but Lin Siqiao guessed it.
Since the beginning of the year, the Monkey Country has been jumping around, and it has become even more arrogant in the second half of the year, provoking four conflicts on the border last month alone.
This is intolerable! It's time to deal with them properly.
Lin Siqiao nodded and said, "Take care of yourself when you go out. I'm at home, don't worry."
Then he added, "Before we leave, let's hold Tangtang and Xingxing's first birthday party."
Lin Siqiao didn't hold a big celebration when the baby was one month old. The family just had a simple meal together.
Now that he is one year old, the two babies should regard it as an early farewell party for him as a father. I wish him a speedy return.
"Okay...I'll listen to you."
Time passed quickly and it was already December. That day, Lin Siqiao went to Senior Sister Hua's office.
But before she could take out the invitation, Senior Sister Hua took it out before her.
Yes, after more than a year of in-depth understanding, she and Shao Bin decided to enter another stage of life hand in hand.
The wedding date is set for May Day next year, a day when spring is in full bloom, and also the day of their first blind date.
It really is true that after going around in circles, it turns out to be you, and it’s still you that is destined to be my partner.
December 16th is the two little ones’ one-year-old party.
The courtyard was decorated with lights and was extremely lively that day.
After the banquet, it was time to hold the one-year-old celebration.
Lu Jianchuan put several tables together and laid a layer of soft blanket on top of them. Then he carried the two newly dressed little ones to the center of the table.
The two little ones were wearing Chinese Tang suits designed for them by Lin Siqiao himself today.
Lin Siqiao even specially tied two small pigtails for Tangtang, matching them with red lantern hairpins, so that she looked no different from the dolls in the New Year pictures.
Hua Chunqiu looked left and right, and said in a dilemma, "What should I do? I really want you to give me one."
Lin Siqiao smiled and glanced in Shao Bin's direction.
"What a coincidence! Your partner said exactly the same thing ten minutes ago. But my partner said that if she wanted to have the child, she should give birth to it herself. Guess what Instructor Shao said in response?"
Hua Chunqiu blushed, "What did he say?"
Lin Siqiao cleared his throat a few times and spoke in the tone of Instructor Shao.
"The one in your family said that he would like to have children, but he doesn't have the final say on this matter. He also said that if they were all like Tangtang and Xingxing, he would be willing to have eight or ten."
Hua Chunqiu was so angry that he laughed when he heard this. Just then, Shao Bin came over after finishing his work.
Lin Siqiao retreated decisively, leaving the space to the two of them.
Shao Bin was a little confused when he saw Hua Chunqiu glaring at him, "What's wrong?"
Hua Chunqiu snorted at him and said softly, "Give birth to ten or eight?"
Shao Bin touched his nose and said, "That's not what I meant... How many children should we have and when to have them is up to you."
Seeing that Hua Chunqiu ignored him, he could only cup his hands and say, "Don't be angry, okay? Otherwise, I will make a promise to you in front of everyone."
Hua Chunqiu's beautiful eyes narrowed and she tugged at his arm, "How dare you!"
Shao Bin smiled, "I dare not, you are the boss and you have the final say."
Hua Chunqiu wasn't really angry. She waved her hand and told him to stop talking. She wanted to watch Tangtang and Xingxing's one-year-old birthday celebration.
At this time, Lin Siqiao and Lu's mother had already arranged the things needed for the "Zhuazhou" ceremony. The purpose of the "Zhuazhou" ceremony was to have a good omen, and basically they included coins, abacus, brushes, seals, ruyi, musical instruments and the like.
In order to achieve perfection, Lin Siqiao specially prepared ten things.
The two little ones were surrounded by a group of uncles and aunts, and they were a little confused at the moment.
Until they heard Lin Siqiao's voice calling them.
"Tangtang, wake up and look here."
Lin Siqiao pointed at the things on the table and said with a smile, "You two take a look and grab whatever you like."
One-year-old children can already guess what adults mean by their body language.
The two little ones reacted almost at the same time. Their mother wanted them to choose what they liked.
Tangtang glanced at her brother and said vaguely.
“You…you…”
That means let your brother choose first.
Xingxing had a face full of question marks. Normally, whether it was drinking milk or eating, his sister was always faster than him. What happened today?
Instead, Lu Jianchuan held Tangtang's little face and kissed her again and again, with an expression that said, "How can my daughter be so sensible?"
Lin Siqiao held his forehead with his hand, it was confirmed that he was a daughter slave!
She had no choice but to clap her hands and said to Xingxing, "Xingxing, you choose first."
Xingxing raised her little face and looked at her mother and then at her sister.
Finally, he turned his attention to the things on the table.
He looked at it very seriously, frowning and pursing his lips from time to time, and no one knew what he was thinking.
After two or three minutes, Xingxing shook his little head at Lin Siqiao.
He didn't know how to tell his mother that there was nothing he liked here.
Lin Siqiao smiled and kissed his little face, "Wake up, is there nothing you like here? Then show mom what you like."
Xingxing tilted her head, as if she was thinking about something.
After a moment, he made a gun gesture with his little hand, ""
Many people from the military district came today. After seeing Xingxing's lifelike movements, they knew what they didn't understand.
Seeing this, Lin Siqiao took out a toy gun from the drawer.
Xingxing was happy now and quickly held the pistol in his arms. He liked this.
That little look made all the guests laugh.
Lu Jianchuan picked up Xingxing and was very excited. "Son, good job! Dad is proud of you."
At this time, Tangtang started to babble, meaning, am I not great? Am I not a good person?
Lin Siqiao quickly comforted her, "Okay, Tangtang, go grab whatever you like."
Tangtang nodded as if she understood. In this regard, the brother and sister behaved in exactly the same way. Tangtang also stared at these for a long time.
Just when Lin Siqiao thought that Tangtang didn’t like what she prepared.
Tangtang took action.
Just her move stunned everyone.
She just scooped up her hands and held all the ten things in front of her in her arms.
She understood what her mother meant. She liked all of these, so if she liked them, she wanted them all.
"Ha ha ha ha----"
Everyone laughed even more happily now. It seemed that Tangtang not only looked like her mother, but also had the same lofty ambitions.
Who knows, he might be an all-round player in the future.
After the lively birthday party, a spring breeze of internal reform and external opening up blew across the land of China, and China entered a new chapter.
It was the end of February, and that evening Lin Siqiao was discussing with Lu Jianchuan when to return to Shanghai.
A phone call interrupted the couple's conversation.
Not knowing what the other party said on the phone, Lu Jianchuan kept a tense face.
After a while, Lin Siqiao heard him say.
"Yes! I promise to complete the task."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Jianchuan apologized, "Wife, I may not be able to spend the New Year with you."
Commander Yuan has just informed him that he must return to the team urgently tonight and wait for further notification.
"Okay, I'll help you pack your luggage."
"Let me do it."
"No, just spend more time with the two children."
After packing his luggage, Lin Siqiao prepared some life-saving medicine powder for him as he had done before.
After repeated instructions, it was time to say goodbye.
"It's cold outside, don't send me off. You and the child stay home and I will be back safely."
Lin Siqiao was worried and upset, but at this moment she could only reassure him, "Okay, we'll wait for you at home."
The two little ones seemed to feel the sadness of parting, and each of them hugged one of Lu Jianchuan's thighs.
"Dad, don't go... Dad, don't go..."
Lu Jianchuan half squatted down, holding one in each hand and kissing them again and again.
"Be good, Daddy is going out to do something and will be back soon."
"Come on, let's make a pinky promise..."
As soon as they heard that they were going to make a pinky promise, the two little ones stretched out their hands, and finally hugged Lu Jianchuan and gave him two saliva-covered kisses.
"Wife, I'm leaving."
Lin Siqiao sniffed. With two children around, she didn't even dare to cry.
I finally coaxed the two little ones to sleep at night, but they woke up the next day and cried for their daddy.
Lin Siqiao had no choice but to take the two little ones back to Shanghai early.
As a result, the next day after returning to Shanghai, Lin Siqiao received an urgent secret message from the organization.
The situation was urgent and it was a time of turmoil. After Lin Siqiao settled the two little ones, he rushed back to Beijing overnight.
The day of departure soon arrived, and it was only when Lin Siqiao arrived at the airport that she realized who she was going to follow this time.
They will go to the country for a ten-day official visit.
Along the way, there were a lot of cars heading towards the airport.
They are all military cars.
Looking at the trucks whizzing past, Lin Siqiao suddenly realized that these people should be heading south.
I don’t know if Lu Jianchuan is here?
It would be great if she could meet him, as she still has many things to tell him that she hasn't had time to say.
Perhaps God heard her thoughts. After arriving at the airport, Lin Siqiao really saw Lu Jianchuan in the crowd.
The moment their eyes met, there was a surprise and an astonishment.
“Qiao Qiao…”
"Lu Jianchuan..."
However, at this time, it was time for them to board the plane.
After a simple farewell, the two men, one heading south and the other heading north. From that moment on, they were about to go to different battlefields for the same ideal.
You guard the southern gate of the motherland.
I will protect the country's economic lifeline.
From now on, you protect the country and I protect you, and when the sea is peaceful and the river is prosperous, we will share the prosperity of the world!
