Because they had both taken leave, Xu Jianguo and Wen Sitian did not have to go to work today. After asking Daya, she also decided to take a day off and not go to Jingzhou University today, so the three of them took a car directly back to the Security Bureau compound.
After parking the car, Xu Jianguo said something to Wen Sitian and asked Daya to accompany her back first. He planned to go to Su Dingshan and Wu Tianlong to tell them the good news.
Wen Sitian also knew that Xu Jianguo had not had time to visit the two old men recently because of his work, so she agreed without any hesitation and asked Xu Jianguo to invite the old men to dinner at home in the evening.
After watching his aunt and sister-in-law return home, Xu Jianguo drove the car deep into the compound.
After parking the car at the gate of the courtyard, Xu Jianguo got out and, using the cover of the trunk, took out the things he had asked Fu Bo to prepare for the two elders in advance.
In addition to tea and medicinal wine, Xu Jianguo also prepared brand new clothes, hats, gloves and cotton shoes for them, everything from inside to outside.
Just as he was about to carry the things into the yard, Xu Jianguo suddenly thought of something and returned to the car again. After a while, he had another thing in his hand.
After all, it would be better to leave no one behind in the circle, so the extra things were prepared for Mr. Wang next door. It would have been fine if he didn't know the old man's identity before, but since they had dinner together last time, Xu Jianguo admired this loyal and righteous old general from the bottom of his heart, so naturally he prepared a portion for him as well. Anyway, there are plenty of these things in the system mall, it's just a matter of picking some from the gold and silver mountains in the space.
They entered the yard carrying large and small bags of things. Before they reached the front of the house, Su Dingshan and Wu Tianlong came out with smiles on their faces.
Xu Jianguo looked at the two old men's strong bodies, grinned and shouted, "Grandpa Su, Grandpa Wu!"
"Hey! You little brat, I thought you had forgotten about us two old men!" Su Dingshan said with a smile.
"How can that be! I've been too busy recently. Director Huang from the Security Bureau is pushing me hard, so I have no choice but to work overtime to catch up!" Xu Jianguo said with a face full of grievance.
"This Huang Hai is too unreasonable. Next time he drinks, I will make sure he gets drunk!" The hot-tempered Wu Tianlong scolded.
"Hahaha, not really!" said Xu Jianguo.
"What are you bringing with all these bags and rolls? We have everything at home, stop wasting money!"
"I thought it was getting cold, so I prepared some clothes and shoes for you, Grandpa Wu, and Grandpa Wang next door."
"Jianguo, this is well done. Your Grandfather Wang has had a hard time. It's rare that you still think of him!"
"That's right. After all, I've had a drink with Grandpa Wang before, so we're drinking buddies!"
"Hahaha, that's a good name! Let's go inside!"
The three of them walked into the house, chatting and laughing. When they reached the door, Wu Tianlong came to the wall and shouted at the neighboring yard, "Wang Laogui, what are you doing at home? Come here quickly, Jianguo is here! If you don't come, there will be no more medicinal wine!"
When Xu Jianguo heard this, he immediately laughed and thought to himself that he was indeed an old comrade-in-arms. This sentence hit the nail on the head for Old Man Wang!
Sure enough, not long after Wu Tianlong finished shouting, the familiar figure of Old Man Wang walked out of the house.
He wore his hat askew, put on his cotton-padded jacket as he walked, and started cursing, "Old Wu, don't touch my medicinal wine! That was given to me by Jianguo!"
"Grandpa Wang, please walk slowly. This is left for you!" Xu Jianguo shouted while carrying the things.
"Hey, Jianguo!" Wang Huaian said with a smile on his face.
It's not that he wants to be anxious, but he has to be anxious. Ever since he drank the medicinal wine at Xu Jianguo's house last time, the old man's body, which was somewhat damaged by the war, seemed to have been rejuvenated. He hasn't felt so comfortable for more than ten years.
So, as an eyewitness who doesn't care about advertisements but only about the efficacy, he has been thinking about asking Xu Jianguo to get some more medicinal wine so that he can send some to his old boss.
It was also because of this that Old Man Wang, who was lying on the kang in the room listening to a talk about semiconductors, jumped up from the kang when he heard Wu Tianlong say that Xu Jianguo had come to deliver medicinal wine. He put on his cotton shoes, put on his hat, grabbed his cotton jacket and walked out.
Xu Jianguo and the other two did not enter the house first, but waited until Old Man Wang arrived before the four of them entered the house together.
After entering the house, the three old men took off their shoes and got on the kang. Xu Jianguo felt the temperature in the room, which was about 26 or 27 degrees Celsius, neither too hot nor too cold. He nodded with satisfaction.
He placed the three net bags filled with wine jars in his right hand on the kang table, and then placed the several cloth bags in his left hand on the kang.
"Jianguo, what are you holding?" Old man Wang looked at the three wine jars with shining eyes, then looked at the cloth bags and asked.
As Xu Jianguo took things out of the bag, he said, "It's getting cold, isn't it? I prepared some winter clothes for you three. The New Year is coming soon, so you should wear some new clothes!"
Looking at this little guy whom he had only met a few times, and seeing that he still thought of bringing something for him, Old Man Wang felt mixed emotions.
I felt both moved and relieved. The unpleasant things that had happened to me in the past seemed to be less bothersome at this moment.
It was not until this time that he understood what Su Dingshan had said to him: "Old Ghost Wang, we are already this age, we have to look forward, the rest of the days are all good days, don't always hold on to the trivial things in the past, even an honest official can hardly judge family affairs, such a big country, can you expect all the people to be good? Let's not talk about the distant past, let's just talk about the little devils back then, you have seen the people who helped us, even now, that doctor in Quancheng is still treating our people! So, we can't generalize. As long as you have light in your heart, you can see everything clearly!"
When Su Dingshan said this to him, Wang Huaian was still a little confused. Until just now when he saw Xu Jianguo taking things out of the bag, the knot in his heart was suddenly untied.
"Yes, the future will be good days, so what happened in the past doesn't matter. What's more, these old guys are now specially appointed consultants to the National Defense Operations Command Center and can still make use of their remaining energy. What could be better than this?" Wang Huaian thought to himself, and the smile on his face became brighter involuntarily.
Su Dingshan, who was sitting next to him, seemed to sense something. He looked at the expression on Wang Huaian's face, gently nudged Wu Tianlong with his elbow, and nodded at him.
Wu Tianlong turned around and immediately understood something. He looked at Su Dingshan and smiled at each other.
