Funiu was the last one to speak to him. Hearing the longing for him in the little girl's words, Xu Jianguo couldn't help but recall the scene when they first met.
If Xu Jianguo didn't have the space at that time, he would not have been able to find the antipyretic medicine, and then the girl Funiu might not be alive today.
Moreover, at that time, the two were each other's only support, so the relationship between the brother and sister was extremely deep and special. Perhaps only Wen Sitian, as a daughter-in-law and sister-in-law, could understand it.
Before hanging up the phone, Xu Jianguo's eyes suddenly rolled, and he felt playful. He decided to tease the little girl Fu Niu, so he said on the phone: "Okay, girl, I won't tell you anymore. We can meet after you get on the train tomorrow!"
"Okay, brother, then remember to come early tomorrow!" said Funiu.
"I get it, don't worry! By the way, I had sweet and sour pork and stir-fried pork slices for lunch today. Wow, they're indeed made by the most famous state-owned restaurant in Ice City. They were so delicious!"
As a foodie, Funiu could not bear to hear this. She immediately opened her mouth to tell Xu Jianguo to take her to try it tomorrow. But before she could open her mouth, she heard a sentence from the other end of the phone: "Okay, that's it, goodbye girl!", and then... nothing happened.
Being tempted by her unreliable brother, Funiu was extremely depressed. She secretly swore in her heart that after seeing Xu Jianguo tomorrow, she would rely on him. If he didn't take her to eat sweet and sour pork and stir-fried pork slices, she would become a part of his body and would not get off him.
Wen Sitian, who was standing by, looked at Funiu, who had a gritted teeth expression after hanging up the phone. She felt a little strange and asked, "Funiu, what's wrong with you? What did I say to you?"
Hearing her sister-in-law asking her, Funiu curled her lips and repeated what Xu Jianguo had just said, which made Wen Sitian laugh and cry. She thought to herself that these brother and sister were really not very good.
When Wenwen and Lele, who were playing on the side, heard this, they immediately surrounded Funniu, hugged her and kept shouting that they wanted to stand by her side and of course they couldn't be left behind during the meal.
Daya and Funiu also nodded firmly, indicating that they must support this matter.
After hanging up the phone, Xu Jianguo was still smiling mischievously as he imagined Fu Niu's furious expression. However, he never imagined that his wife and the five little ones at home had already united and were just waiting to see him tomorrow to help reduce his wallet and let him know the dangers of society.
As for Ma Guoliang, after he finished talking to Xu Jianguo, he called Tai Wei, who was guarding outside the door, in, gave him a few instructions, and then let him leave.
I picked up the phone on the table. After a while, Dong Jixiang's voice came from the receiver: "I am Dong Jixiang!"
"Old Dong!"
"Hey, Old Ma? What's the matter?" Dong Jixiang was a little surprised why Ma Guoliang called him suddenly. After all, there were less than ten minutes left before the meeting time they had agreed on.
"This is what happened. I just received a call from that kid Jianguo. He reported a problem to me..." Then, Ma Guoliang told Dong Jixiang what happened in the cafeteria of the Zidis Primary School.
After listening to Ma Guoliang carefully, Dong Jixiang slammed his fist on the table, making a dull "bang" sound, which immediately made Guo Bin, who was guarding outside the door, feel nervous.
Just as he was about to push open the door and rush in, he suddenly heard his chief's roar: "These bastards actually dared to do such a thing. Old Ma, wait, I'm going to your office now, and we can talk face to face!"
After a while, the office door was opened from the inside, and Dong Jixiang walked out with a gloomy face and walked towards Ma Guoliang's office. Seeing this, Guo Bin immediately followed him.
The two of them arrived at the door of Ma Guoliang's office. Dong Jixiang seemed to have thought of something and turned to Guo Bin and said, "Go to the conference room and see if anyone comes. If anyone comes, tell them that the meeting will be postponed for an hour. No one is allowed to leave and must stay where they are!"
"Yes!" Guo Bin stood at attention and saluted, then turned around and left quickly.
After knocking on the door and getting Ma Guoliang's permission, Dong Jixiang pushed the door open and walked in.
No one knew what the two bosses of the base said in the office. All they knew was that half an hour later, after Tai Wei hurried back from outside, Ma Guoliang's office was filled with angry curses from him and Dong Jixiang.
After waiting for a while, the office door opened and three people walked out and headed towards the conference room not far away. Guo Bin had already been waiting there after receiving Dong Jixiang's order.
…
Today's meeting went on very quickly, but the content was not simple at all. It could even be said that all the cadres at the regimental level and above who participated in the meeting felt a long-lost chill.
Originally, this was just a routine annual meeting, mainly to convey the work goals for the new year, including the troops' training plans, support plans and some of the central government's policies and ideas for maintaining regional stability. These cadres at the regimental level and above did not think there was anything special about it.
But when they received Guo Bin's notice that the meeting would be postponed for one hour and that they were not allowed to leave, they all sensed something unusual.
When Ma Guoliang and Dong Jixiang walked into the meeting room with serious faces, everyone knew that something must have happened. Otherwise, it would have been so shortly after the Chinese New Year, and according to previous years, the two old men would basically be smiling when they held such post-New Year meetings.
Two hours passed in the blink of an eye. As the meeting progressed, all plans for the new year were finalized. However, no one felt relieved. Instead, they all looked at Ma Guoliang who was sitting in the first seat. They knew that the following content was the main topic of today's meeting.
"Okay, we have finished the routine content of the meeting, so let's talk about some unconventional content next!" Ma Guoliang said, and began to scan the crowd with his eyes. Finally, he stopped on a middle-aged man, which made him tremble in his heart, and hurriedly began to recall whether he had made any mistakes during this period of time.
But after thinking for a while, he couldn't remember what he had done to violate discipline, and he couldn't help but relax again. But the next moment, Ma Guoliang's voice came to his ears: "Kong Weidong!"
The man shuddered, quickly stood up and stood at attention, and answered loudly: "Here!"
