At this moment, Fu Bo led Daya and Erya in from outside. Erya asked, "Fu Niu, what's six boards?"
Seeing this, Xu Jianguo was about to cover Funniu's mouth, but unexpectedly the little girl jumped off his lap and ran to Daya and Erya with her short legs, telling them about the unequal treaty that her brother had just promised her.
After hearing this, Daya and Erya's eyes lit up instantly, and then... Xu Jianguo gradually lost himself in the two girls' coquettish and cute behavior.
Finally, the eighteen boards of Le Duoduo were delivered, and the three girls went to school happily.
Because they wasted too much time in the morning and had no time to eat breakfast, the three girls each grabbed a piece of peach cake, put two eggs in their pockets, and held a box of milk in their hands and went out.
Wen Sitian held the baby firmly in her arms, looking at the furious Xu Jianguo, and giggled non-stop, causing the little one in her arms to grin and laugh along.
Seeing this, Xu Jianguo came to his wife and children, kissed them hard on the face, and then vented the depression in his heart.
"Wife, I have a gift for you!" Xu Jianguo sat back on the sofa and said.
Wen Sitian was immediately interested when she heard this and asked, "What gift?"
Xu Jianguo moved his mind, and two shining medals appeared in his hands.
Originally, he was wearing these two medals, but he took them off before going home last night and put them into the space together with the two certificates.
When Wen Sitian saw the two medals, her eyes widened. Then she placed the medal in Xu Jianguo's arms and took the medals to look at them.
"Jianguo, what kind of medal is this?" Wen Sitian asked.
"This is the Second Class Medal of Merit, and this is the Medal of Honor for Model Cadres for Strengthening the Army with Science and Technology. People say that being a military wife has a hard time, so we will each have half of these two medals. This is my gift to you!" Xu Jianguo said with a smile, and then put the two certificates in her hands.
Wen Sitian looked at the honor in her hand, her eyes slightly red. She sniffed and said, "Huh, you can talk!"
"Wife, calm down. If you knew who presented the award to me, I'm afraid you would be even more excited!" Xu Jianguo said proudly.
As soon as Xu Jianguo said this, Wen Sitian's curiosity was aroused. She quickly shook his arm and asked, "Tell me, tell me, isn't this the award given to you by the commander?"
Wen Sitian's shaking made the baby in Xu Jianguo's arms laugh loudly, and the room was suddenly filled with laughter.
After the family of three laughed for a while, Wen Sitian remembered what Xu Jianguo had just said, so she continued to ask who gave him the award.
So Xu Jianguo told Wen Sitian about the three leaders' visit to the base yesterday, which caused her to exclaim in surprise and pinch Xu Jianguo's arm continuously, causing him to grimace in pain and frown.
"Wife, even if you want to verify whether you are dreaming, you should pinch yourself. Why are you pinching me?" Xu Jianguo said.
"Nonsense, it hurts so much when you pinch yourself!" Wen Sitian rolled her eyes at Xu Jianguo and looked at him as if he were a fool.
Xu Jianguo curled his lips and put on an expression that said, "You make sense."
After thinking for a moment, he continued, "Mr. Da's secretary took a picture of us yesterday. When the picture comes back later, we'll hang it up and treat it as a family heirloom."
When Wen Sitian heard there were photos, she nodded happily and said, "Okay!"
At this time, it was 7:50 in the morning. Xu Jianguo put Wenwen back into Wen Sitian's arms, asked her to put away the medals and certificates, and then he dressed neatly and left home.
When he rushed to the headquarters, Ma Guoliang had not arrived yet. Since the jeep assigned to him by the base was parked at the 523 Institute, he ran all the way from home.
Binhai in early October was still at the tail end of the autumn heat. Although it was morning, the temperature was still very high, so Xu Jianguo sat down by the flower bed outside the headquarters, lit a cigarette for himself, and smoked it quietly.
After waiting for a while, two jeeps drove over from a distance. Xu Jianguo threw away the cigarette butt in his hand, stood up and went to greet them.
"You came early!" Ma Guoliang jumped out of the jeep and said.
"Yes, why don't you stay at home a little longer?" Dong Jixiang also came over and said.
"Aren't you two afraid that you might be waiting anxiously, so I came here early!" Xu Jianguo said with a smile.
"Let's go inside and talk!" The three of them talked as they walked towards the headquarters.
"Commander, what do you want to see me about today?"
"Didn't I tell you before? Deputy Commander Dong and I will be your introducers and accept you as a probationary member of the organization. I called you here today to talk to you about this. When you have time recently, please write an application and a thought report!" Ma Guoliang said.
"Sure, I'd love to! I'll write it when I get home today and hand it to you tomorrow morning!" said Xu Jianguo.
"Okay, there's another personal matter. Your eldest sister-in-law and your second sister are about to give birth, and your aunt is a little worried. She wants you to go home and take a look!"
"No problem, I'll come find you after get off work and go back with you to take a look!"
“Haha, okay!”
"Old Ma, I have nothing to do at night anyway, so I'll go and take a look too!" Dong Jixiang also spoke up.
"Okay, how about Jianguo, you bring another bottle of wine? Let's have a drink?" Ma Guoliang said.
"So you two didn't drink enough last night, and going home to see your eldest sister-in-law and second sister was just an excuse, right?" Xu Jianguo said unhappily.
"You little brat, can't you be more positive in your thinking? It's already happened!" Ma Guoliang said with some guilt.
Dong Jixiang didn't say anything. He took out a cigarette, lit it, and turned to look out the window.
Xu Jianguo looked at the state of the two old men, who were over a hundred years old in total, and couldn't help but feel a little funny, so he asked, "Okay, okay, I'll bring some wine tonight. What do you want to drink?"
When they heard this, they burst out laughing and waved their hands, saying, "We're not picky, we'll drink whatever you bring. But it can't be less than a century-old cellar!"
Xu Jianguo looked at the wrinkles on the two people's faces, and immediately frowned, thinking, this is not picky?
Seeing that there was nothing else to do, Xu Jianguo left the headquarters and walked towards the 523 Institute.
