When Su Dingshan and others heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up, and then they turned to look at Xu Jianguo, wanting to hear what he had to say.
Xu Jianguo didn't expect that the old man would not play by the rules and he could get him stuck there with just one sentence.
Agree to it, he can't let go of Su Dingshan and Wu Tianlong.
If he doesn't agree, Mr. Zhou's health is a big problem, and he thinks this will be a good opportunity for Wen Sitian and the five little ones at home. After all, there is a big difference in essence between proposing to go to Jingzhou and being invited.
As for Ma Guoliang, Dong Jixiang and the people from the 523 Institute, Xu Jianguo didn't think it was a big deal. After all, the soldiers may come and go, and they couldn't stay in the Dawali base forever.
Especially not long ago, after the old woman passed away, the deputy commander of the Jingzhou Military Region, who had come to the Dawali base and wanted to invite Su Dingshan back to Jingzhou, as well as the deputy commander of the Fengzhou Military Region and the deputy director of the Patrol Department, all received the punishment they deserved.
Some were forced to take off their military uniforms, some were exiled, and as a result, many positions in the Jingzhou and Fengzhou military regions were left vacant.
This series of changes also gave Ma Guoliang and Dong Jixiang hope for further progress.
According to what Ma Guoliang himself said to Xu Jianguo, he is very likely to be transferred to the military region next year, and Dong Jixiang is also very likely to remove the word "deputy" and become the new commander of the Dawali base.
When he heard the news, Xu Jianguo was happy for him from the bottom of his heart. After all, whether it was Wu Dajiang, Ma Guoliang or Dong Jixiang, they were all benefactors and mentors in his military career.
Moreover, the relationship between the three is that of both teacher and friend. They usually talk in a casual and free manner, just like the old and the young.
It was for this reason that when Xu Jianguo heard Mr. Zhou ask him if he was willing to go back to Jingzhou with him, he did not take Ma Guoliang and Dong Jixiang into consideration, but was a little worried about Su Dingshan and Wu Tianlong.
Looking at the somewhat conflicted expression on Xu Jianguo's face, both Mr. Zhou and Su Dingshan showed a look of relief on their faces.
The two old men have seen countless people and have met many young talents, but there are more people who "jump when they see benefits and give way when they see difficulties". Especially during the period when the "storm" is coming, there are countless cases of selling friends for fame and fortune for some petty gains. Some people even sell out their parents and relatives for their own insignificant interests, which eventually leads to the destruction of their families.
So when they saw that Xu Jianguo did not agree directly but was struggling in his heart, they felt extremely relieved.
This proves that he is not the kind of person who only cares about immediate interests and abandons the bottom line and concerns in his heart. This kind of Xu Jianguo who is capable and sentimental is what the two elders want to see.
After a long while, Xu Jianguo seemed to have made up his mind. He looked at Old Man Zhou and said, "Grandpa Zhou, I can go back to Jingzhou with you, but I have one condition."
Mr. Zhou nodded and asked with a smile, "What are the conditions?"
Xu Jianguo looked at Grandpa Zhou with clear eyes, then turned to look at Su Dingshan and Wu Tianlong who were standing beside him, and said, "I promised Grandpa Su and Grandpa Wu that I would take care of them in their old age, so I want to take them back to Jingzhou."
After hearing what Xu Jianguo said, Su Dingshan and Wu Tianlong's eyes suddenly turned red, and the look they gave him became more kind.
In his previous life, Xu Jianguo was also a lonely old man, so he had a deep understanding of the uneasy feeling of having no one around when one is old. However, because he was rich, he was much happier in life than most lonely old men. At least he did not have to worry about medical treatment and food. In addition, he was accompanied by his old housekeeper Fu Bo, who was also a lonely old man, and Du Yu was very good to them, so he did not feel miserable in his later years.
After Xu Jianguo finished speaking, he looked at Su Dingshan and Wu Tianlong with a bright smile, then turned to look at Mr. Zhou, waiting for his answer.
"Why are you looking at me? If it weren't for some special reasons, do you think these two old guys would have the chance to come to you? According to their level, they should have stayed in Jingzhou and enjoyed a peaceful life!" said Old Master Zhou.
"No, what do you mean? Do you agree?" Xu Jianguo asked.
"Nonsense, I hope they can return to Jingzhou more than you do! But whether they are willing to go with you or not is not something I can control!" Old Master Zhou said unhappily.
"Hehe, that's no problem. Grandpa Su and Grandpa Wu are definitely willing to go with me, right?" Xu Jianguo said with a smile, and winked at the two old men while speaking. Suddenly, the two old men who were moved smiled and rolled their eyes at him.
No one expected that the grandfather and grandson would decide to go to Jingzhou with just a few words. When they heard that Xu Jianguo was going to provide for Su Dingshan and Wu Tianlong in their retirement, they began to admire this young cadre and felt only envy, not jealousy.
"Come on, Grandpa Zhou, let me try your cooking at noon!" When Xu Jianguo heard that Grandpa Zhou had agreed, he immediately took his hand and walked into the house.
"Wait a minute? You want to try my cooking?!" Mr. Zhou asked in surprise.
Xu Jianguo was stunned for a moment before realizing his slip of the tongue. He quickly said with a smile, "I said it the wrong way around. I was asking you to try my cooking!"
"Hahaha..." Bursts of laughter suddenly rang out all around.
After Xu Jianguo and the three old men walked into the yard, the soldiers from the Security Bureau who were on guard immediately followed them.
Chen Jin took his driver Xiao Liang to find Ma Guoliang and Dong Jixiang, and met with them to arrange matters for other people.
Originally, as a special agent of the Central Security Bureau, driver Xiao Liang was supposed to follow Mr. Zhou, but because Xu Jianguo was in the room, he did not follow him.
Mr. Zhou had asked him before how confident he would be if he were to face Xu Jianguo.
Xiao Liang thought about it and didn't say anything. Instead, he shook his head at the old man.
After entering the house, Xu Jianguo asked the three old men to sit on the kang, then he ran to the main room with the teapot, poured out the old tea leaves in the teapot and replaced them with new ones.
The tea used was still the wild mountain tea made by the old Taoist Xuanjue. After brewing it with boiling space well water, he returned to the house.
He told the three old men to drink tea first, went home, and then trotted away.
The three people sitting on the kang looked at Xu Jianguo's leaving back through the glass and smiled at each other. Everything was self-evident, but the indelible relief in their eyes fully expressed their mood at the moment.
