Chapter 1380: Recalling the Bitterness and Thinking of the Sweetness 7
Although it was New Year's Eve, there was no festive atmosphere in the military compound.
This has been the case in recent years. The most lively thing is probably the performances of the art troupe. Even if they are performing revolutionary dramas, everyone enjoys watching them because it is the only form of entertainment.
Lu Jiang told Feng Qingxue that he would not go to the performance today, but Feng Qingxue did not find him in his office.
"Sister-in-law? Are you here to look for Comrade Lu Jiang?" An unfamiliar soldier on guard saw Feng Qingxue nod and said hurriedly, "They are all in the cafeteria reminiscing about the good old days. You can go find him there."
Recalling the past and thinking of the present?
With this question in mind, Feng Qingxue found the cafeteria where Lu Jiang often ate, and heard the Minister of Political Department He Chunming waving his arms and cheering there.
At the order, many senior generals including Lu Jiang picked up their bowls and ate the rice with big mouthfuls.
"Of course it's not delicious. It's bitter, astringent, and makes my throat hurt." When the meeting ended, Lu Jiang immediately got up and went out to meet his wife. He hurried home. When he heard his wife ask him if the food was delicious, he whispered, "Let's go. I'm still hungry. I'm waiting to eat our family's New Year's Eve dinner."

Others may not notice it, but no one knows a husband better than his wife!
The so-called "bitter memories and sweet thoughts rice" is a porridge made by mixing tree roots, wild vegetables, tree bark with coarse grains such as dried sweet potatoes, corn grits, and wheat bran. Each person eats a large bowl of it, and there is more after they finish eating, with no limit on the amount.
The couple walked into the family compound and passed by someone else's door. They heard sharp and loud criticism coming from inside.
Lu Jiang usually has a blank expression on his face when facing other people, and others will not specially study his thoughts. However, Feng Qingxue is different. She can guess his thoughts from his subtle expressions and some behaviors.
Lu Jiang pulled his wife forward and whispered, "Let's go, don't listen."
Although Feng Qingxue didn't understand what her husband was eating, she knew it must be bad, otherwise he wouldn't have that expression.
In order to have the New Year's Eve dinner, he ate a bowl of rice.
To recall the bitter past and contemplate the sweet present means to recall the sufferings of the past and look forward to a better future. This meal must be savored carefully. How can you recall the bitter past and contemplate the sweet present if you just swallow it whole?
Lu Jiang glanced at his wife and was anxious to go back, but he couldn't show it and couldn't eat too fast.
"What's going on? It's New Year's Day." Feng Qingxue had never experienced this before and was very confused.
Lu Jiang coughed and said, "This is a family gathering before dinner on New Year's Eve. Just because we don't have one doesn't mean other families don't have one."
Feng Qingxue understood and frowned, "What is going on?"
"It's not just the military that recalls the bitter past and thinks of the sweet past. Every government unit will organize a meeting to recall the bitter past and think of the sweet past. There should be one in the countryside as well. It's organized by the commune, and people are selected from each brigade to participate. But we just haven't experienced it."
I'm feeling uncomfortable. I'll update in the evening. At least four chapters, a little more. Football tickets, football tickets at the end of the month.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
