In the evening, when Shen Wanrong came to deliver vegetables to the Tong family, she jokingly told Tong Xuelu about this.
Tong Xuelu was stunned for a moment: "You said I look like the mother of Grandpa Wei's comrade-in-arms?"
Shen Wanrong smiled and nodded: "Yes, in fact, I felt that you looked very familiar when I saw you for the first time, but I couldn't remember it at that time. It was not until the afternoon when Zhuzhu's grandfather told me about this that I remembered who you looked like!"
Tong Xuelu seemed to ask casually: "There is such a strange thing. What is the surname of Grandpa Wei's comrade-in-arms?"
Shen Wanrong said: "The surname is Xiao, Xiao with the grass radical. It's a pity that he never got married and had no children in his life, otherwise I really suspected that you were his granddaughter!"
Tong Xuelu's heart moved slightly.
Before, she suspected that the original owner's father, Tong Dajun, was not Xie Jinhua's son. After all, Xie Jinhua was too ugly, and the two sons she gave birth to were also ugly.
In addition, Xie Jinhua was very cold and ruthless to Tong Dajun, Tong Jiaming and other grandchildren.
But later, when she asked Tong Jiaming, Tong Jiaming said that Tong Dajun looked like their grandfather. Parents do not love their children. This is still the case in modern times.
Before she traveled through the book, she often saw on the Internet that parents abused their own children, abused their children to the point of amputation, forced their children to eat cat feces, and all kinds of behaviors that were too numerous to list.
So she had already dispelled her doubts at that time, but now that Shen Wanrong said this, her doubts surfaced again.
Of course, she did not suspect that Tong Dajun was the son of that comrade Xiao, after all, the other party had never married and had no children. She found that she had always missed an important person-Tong Dajun's aunt.
Tong Dajun's aunt, that is, the original owner's great aunt, died of illness at the age of 22.
It is not strange to die of illness, but it is strange that she was not married when she died!
Thirty years ago, that is, in the late 1930s, it was very rare for a 22-year-old girl to be unmarried.
The original owner's grandfather was very handsome, so it can be inferred that this great aunt should be good-looking and not unmarried.
Then the question is, why didn't she get married at such an old age? Is it because of poor health?
Tong Jiaming may not have the answer to this question.
It seems that if she has time, she has to go back to her hometown in Beihe and ask the people in the village. Maybe she will get the answer.
Shen Wanrong was still talking: "Old Xiao is in the northwest now. According to Zhuzhu's grandfather, he may be transferred back to Beijing next year. If there is a chance, let him see you. I guess even he will be shocked!"
Tong Xuelu smiled and agreed.
Shen Wanrong looked at the sky outside, stood up and said: "It's getting late. I should go back. Zhuzhu's brother will be home in two days. I have to prepare some delicious food for him."
The ugly brother mentioned by Wei Zhuzhu is coming back?
Tong Xuelu expressed great interest.
She wanted to see how ugly the other person was that Zhuzhu, his younger sister, disliked him so much.
After Shen Wanrong left, Tong Xulu started to cook.
The laughter of Xiao Naigou and Tong Mianmian came from the yard. She looked over from the window and curled up the corners of her mouth.
**
Wen Rugui's vacation is over, and he must go back to the base immediately.
The base let him take a vacation because they wanted him to rest more and didn't want him to run around and get tired again.
Jiang Huarong's matter has not been judged yet, and Jiang Danhong cannot go back to the Jiang family for the time being. After thinking about it, she was finally sent to Pu Jianyi's house.
There are only two grown men in the Wen family, and it is not convenient for Jiang Danhong to live there alone. Wen Rugui has never thought of letting her go to Tong Xulu's place, for fear that the Jiang family will be unfavorable to her, which will eventually bring trouble and danger to Tong Xulu.
Only Pu Jianyi's house is the most suitable. His mother and sister are there. Jiang Danhong can live there as a distant relative and will not attract attention.
After arranging Jiang Danhong's place, Wen Rugui went back to the base.
As soon as he returned to the base, he ran into Zhou Yan.
Zhou Yan was shocked to see his appearance: "You guy, didn't you go home to rest? Why do you look more haggard than before?"
Wen Rugui said in a hoarse voice: "I went home to do something."
He didn't intend to say what it was.
Zhou Yan looked at him with sympathy: "You look so tired that even your voice is hoarse. You should take it easy from now on. Don't think that you are still young and don't take your body seriously!"
Wen Rugui felt that Zhou Yan was particularly nagging today, even catching up with his uncle.
The two walked to the dormitory building and saw a woman standing in front of Wen Rugui's dormitory door from a distance.
Zhou Yan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he nudged him with his elbow and said, "See! That's Director Jiao's daughter. During the few days you were away, she came every day to ask if you were back!"
Wen Rugui's face was indifferent and he said nothing.
However, Zhou Yan did not let him go and said with an ambiguous look: "You are very lucky. I think Director Jiao's daughter must be interested in you!"
Wen Rugui frowned and stopped him: "Don't talk nonsense, it will damage Comrade Jiao's reputation!"
Zhou Yan grinned and said: "Don't worry, I just said it in front of you. I didn't say a word in front of other people!"
"But seriously, although the Jiao family's status and position are not as good as your Wen family, Director Jiao is the head of the base. His achievements are obvious to all. Now the situation is becoming clearer. If you are interested, I think this is a good choice." Jiao
Borui's in-laws have now been rehabilitated, and the control over him has become more and more relaxed.
But the contributions Jiao Bojun has made over the years, no matter who he is, can't be erased.
The missile was successfully launched in 1964, the first atomic bomb was successfully launched in 1964, the first hydrogen bomb air burst test was successful in 1967, and the first artificial satellite was successfully launched in 1970.
All these achievements are the result of the sweat and wisdom of Director Jiao Bojun.
No matter which of these achievements is taken out, the whole world will be impressed. Now the situation is getting clearer and clearer, and Director Jiao Bojun's status will only get higher and higher.
In this way, although the Jiao family is not as good as the Wen family, it is not much worse.
Wen Rugui frowned even more tightly: "Don't say such things again in the future!"
Seeing that Wen Rugui was really angry, Zhou Yan shook his head and said, "Okay, okay, I won't say anything. I just see that you are not a child anymore, and I am worried that you will be single for the rest of your life!"
Wen Rugui did not respond to him.
Soon, the two of them walked to the dormitory. Jiao Huanshi also saw Wen Rugui. She had just lowered her head, but now her eyes lit up.
"Comrade Wen, Comrade Zhou, you are back!"
Wen Rugui and Zhou Yan nodded and greeted her.
Wen Rugui said, "Comrade Jiao, are you here to see me? What's the matter?"
Jiao Huanshi frowned when she heard his voice, "Comrade Wen, why do you sound more serious? Wait, I will go back and get you some Sterculia lychnophora!"
Without waiting for Wen Rugui to say no, she turned around and ran away.
Zhou Yan winked and said, "Pang Dahai, that's a good thing!"
Wen Rugui glanced at him coldly and said, "If you want it, just take it later."
Zhou Yan waved his hand quickly, "I didn't say that. Besides, it's not prepared for me!"
He was about to go into the dormitory, but was stopped by Wen Rugui.
Wen Rugui thought that it would be bad for Jiao Yunshi to come over later and they would be seen alone. With Zhou Yan around, others would not say anything.
Zhou Yan wanted to watch the show, so he stayed happily.
Jiao Ranshi ran back after a while, her cheeks slightly pink from running: "Comrade Wen, this is Sterculia lychnophora, take it!"
Wen Rugui did not take it: "Thank you, Comrade Jiao, but I can't accept it, you take it back."
Jiao Ranshi's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and she smiled: "This is what my parents prepared for you as a thank-you gift for picking us up, you take it "You should keep it, otherwise I will definitely be scolded by them if I take it back like this!"
Wen Rugui accepted it after hearing that it was prepared by the teacher and the teacher's wife: "Thank you, please tell the teacher and the teacher's wife for me later!"
Jiao Yanshi was relieved to see that he accepted it: "Actually, you don't have to be polite. If it weren't for you helping to take care of my grandfather this time, we probably wouldn't be able to come back now!"
"By the way, you only need two pieces of this Sterculia lychnophora each time. Soak it in hot water for about fifteen minutes. If you think it has no taste, you can add some rock sugar. In fact, if there is chrysanthemum, the effect will be better!"
Wen Rugui thanked him again.
Seeing his indifferent attitude and tired face, Jiao Ranshi felt embarrassed to stay any longer, so she said she had to go back and left.
After she left, Zhou Yan wanted to say something, but Wen Rugui did not give him a chance to speak and turned back to her room.
When Jiao Ranshi returned to the dormitory, she ran into her mother Zhong Shulan.
Seeing her happy face, Zhong Shulan couldn't help but ask curiously: "What happened? Why are you so happy?"
Jiao Pingshi immediately put away her smile: "I'm not happy."
Zhong Shulan: "Where did you go just now? Why did you come back and go out again?" "
Comrade Wen is back. Didn't you ask me to send him some Sterculia lychnophora? I saw that his voice didn't seem to be well yet, so I came back to bring it to him."
Zhong Shulan stared at her daughter's face and nodded: "That's right. If he still hasn't recovered in a few days, you can send some more."
Jiao Pingshi felt a little embarrassed by her mother's look, and made an excuse: "I'm going to the cafeteria to get food."
Jiao Pingshi went out with the rice bowl and met her father Jiao Bojun at the door.
Before Jiao Bojun could call her, she ran away like a gust of wind.
Jiao Borun returned to the house and asked curiously, "Did Langshi go to get food? Why did she run so fast?"
Zhong Shulan poured him a cup of warm water and handed it to him, "Yes, she went to get food. She must be shy."
Jiao Borun became more confused when he heard it, "Shy? What is she shy about?"
Zhong Shulan smiled, and the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes smoothed out at the same time, "Your student is back. She brought the Pangdahai over. She has been looking so happy since she came back."
Jiao Borun was silent when he heard it.
Seeing this, Zhong Shulan sighed and said, "Don't worry, I'm not the kind of unreasonable person. If Rugui is not interested in Lan Shi, I will definitely not force him, but now you don't know it, right? There is an opportunity in front of us, we have to give it a try, don't you think?"
Jiao Boyun was silent for a long time before saying, "Let's talk about this later."
If it were any other student, maybe he would have spoken up.
But not Wen Rugui.
Wen Rugui is unmarried and has no partner at this age, in addition to being devoted to scientific research, more importantly because of his family.
The harm caused to him by his parents is very great, making him feel insecure about marriage.
He is ten thousand times unwilling to force him, even if it is just to speak up.
After hearing what her husband said, Zhong Shulan pursed her lips and said nothing.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became depressing.
**
People in this era were very poor. Even workers, even if they were paid, would never step into a state-owned hotel.
But since Tong Xuelu took over as the chef, the hotel's business has been getting better and better.
At mealtime, there are many more people scrambling for seats than before. Tan Xiaoyan's voice has become hoarse just from yelling at these people these past two days.
At noon that day, a female comrade from the coal yard ate lunch and was late to leave the hotel.
She waited until Tong Xuelu came out, and then she rushed over and said, "Hello, Master!"
Tong Xuelu looked at her and raised her eyebrows slightly: "Who are you?"
Wang Nianzhen said, "Hello, Master, I am a worker in a nearby clothing factory. I have eaten in the hotel several times. The braised pork you make is very delicious!"
Tong Xuelu said calmly, "Thank you for the compliment."
Wang Nianzhen suddenly lowered her voice and said, "Master, I have something to tell you. Do you think it's convenient for you to come out with me?"
It was broad daylight now, and Tong Xuelu was not afraid that she would harm herself, so she walked out of the hotel with her.
When they were outside, Wang Nianzhen finally told her purpose: "My grandmother is almost 70 years old, and she really wants to have a bite of the braised pork in her memory, but she said that the ones made by my mother and sister-in-law are not right."
"I brought a piece of braised pork back that day, and she said it was very similar to what she had eaten when she was a child, so I thought... could you please make me a pot of braised pork? As long as you make it for me, I can do anything you want me to do!"
As for why she didn't buy it directly from the hotel, it was because the hotel didn't provide braised pork on her grandmother's birthday.
Secondly, there was a limit on the amount each person could buy. Besides, if she dared to buy all the braised pork by herself, she might be reported for capitalism later!
As a last resort, she came to the hotel's master chef.
Tong Xuelu thought for a moment and said, "You just said you work in a clothing factory?"
Wang Nianzhen was very understanding. When she heard this, she nodded quickly and said, "Yes, I work in a clothing factory. Our factory often has those defective cloths and clothes. Look, you..."
She didn't say the rest, but both of them understood.
Defective items, although they have defects, do not affect their use, but the price will be much cheaper, and no tickets are required.
She has money in her hand now, but tickets are not enough. The clothes of Tong Jiaming and his three siblings have turned white after washing. She has to buy a set for each of them.
And she herself, she didn't bring winter clothes when she left the Tong family over there, and it is definitely not possible to go back and get them now.
If she doesn't make a few sets of thick clothes quickly, she will definitely be frozen to death this winter.
Now that the other party has brought up this, it just happened to solve her problem.
It's like someone handed me a pillow when I was dozing off. I didn't expect that temporarily replacing the master chef would have such benefits.
How cool!
Tong Xuelu said, "My last name is Tong, comrade, what's your name?"
Wang Nianzhen's eyes lit up: "My name is Wang Nianzhen, I'm 20 years old, and I work at Hongyang Garment Factory!"
Tong Xuelu: "..."
It was really honest to introduce her family like this.
"I just want to buy some cotton and winter clothes. Do you have any?"
Wang Nianzhen nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes. The weather has gotten colder, so we started making autumn and winter clothes two months ago. How many do you want?"
Tong Xulu was not polite either, "I want three sets for myself, one for autumn and two for winter, one for each ten-year-old boy, and two for girls around five. Do you have any?"
Wang Nianzhen was shocked by her generosity, "Yes, yes, but the quantity you have is a bit too much. Are you sure ?" Do you need so many?"
Tong Xuelu nodded: "My winter clothes were stolen. If I don't buy new ones, I won't be able to survive this winter."
Wang Nianzhen heard this and helped to scold the thief: "Okay, let's make an appointment to meet later."
Tong Xuelu thought for a while and said: "For the braised pork, you can bring the meat to the hotel in advance. I will make it for you and then you can come to get it. As for the clothes, you can come to me after work."
In this way, even if someone finds out, it can be said that it is a gift between relatives, not a transaction.
Wang Nianzhen thought her method was good, praised her a few words, and went back to the factory to work with a smile.
Back to the hotel, Meng Qingqing asked: "What did that person want to see you about?"
When Meng Qingqing said this, Tan Xiaoyan and Liu Dongchang on the side looked over at the same time, with their ears erected.
Tong Xuelu rolled her eyes in her heart and said, "Her sister and I used to work in a textile factory. She just recognized me and told me some things about her sister."
Meng Qingqing said "Oh" and didn't ask any more questions.
**
Two days later, Wang Nianzhen came to the hotel to find Tong Xuelu and told her that they would meet after work the next day.
Tong Xuelu was very happy when she knew it.
At the end of the work day the next day, the state-owned hotel closed very punctually.
After Tong Xuelu left the hotel, she waved goodbye to Meng Qingqing and walked in the opposite direction of home.
Coming to a hidden alley, Tong Xuelu made two cuckoo calls.
Soon, another cuckoo call came from the other side of the corner.
It made the two of them look like they were in an underground gang, which was very funny.
Then Wang Nianzhen appeared from the corner, holding a sack in her hand, which looked very heavy: "Comrade Tong, everything is inside."
Tong Xuelu took out a cotton coat and looked at it. She pinched the fabric on it. It was very thick and it would be very warm to wear.
She was very satisfied: "How much is the total?"
Wang Nianzhen said: "Forty yuan and fifty-seven cents. You don't have to give the rest. Consider it a thank you gift for helping me make braised pork."
Tong Xuelu didn't take advantage of this and gave her forty yuan and sixty cents.
With so many sets of clothes, she was actually taking advantage. It would be meaningless to be greedy for a few cents.
Seeing that she had taken too much, Wang Nianzhen hurriedly said, "Wait a minute, I'll give you the change."
Tong Xuelu waved her hands and said, "No, hurry up and leave. It will be bad if someone comes later!"
Wang Nianzhen thought about it and didn't take out any more money. In fact, she had already said that the money was too little: "Okay, by the way, I'll take the pork to the hotel for you the day after tomorrow!"
Tong Xuelu nodded and urged her to leave again.
Wang Nianzhen was afraid of being seen, so she turned around and ran away.
When she ran away, Tong Xuelu said, "You two, come over here quickly."
The two brothers Tong Jiaming and Tong Jiaxin ran over from the other end of the alley.
Tong Jiaxin's face turned red with excitement: "Sister, are there really clothes inside?"
Tong Xuelu nodded: "Yes, don't look at it now, let's go back and look, Jiaming put two sets of clothes in your bag, two sets for Jiaxin."
She took the remaining three sets herself, so that the target would not be too obvious.
The three of them put their clothes into the bags they brought, and then hurriedly left the alley.
Back home, Tong Jiaming went to Wei's house to pick up Tong Mianmian, and then everyone unpacked the clothes together.
Tong Xuelu had three sets of clothes, and she told the two brothers about this early in the morning.
Neither of them had any objections.
After all, Tong Xuelu did not bring any clothes, and Tong Zhenzhen was half a head shorter than Tong Xuelu, so Tong Xuelu could not wear her clothes.
And she could make money herself, so it was reasonable for her to buy two more pieces.
As for Tong Mianmian's two sets, the two of them had no objection.
Although Tong Jiaxin often teased Tong Mianmian, he still doted on his sister in his heart.
Tong Jiaxin took out his cotton-padded jacket, grinning almost to his ears: "I'll try it on now!"
He put on the cotton-padded jacket and asked everyone conceitedly: "How is it? Does it look good?"
No one paid attention to him because everyone was looking at their new clothes.
Tong Mianmian twisted her hands and said with a red face: "Sister, Mianmian also wants to wear clothes."
The little girl looked at her with big black grape-like eyes, with desire in her eyes, and seemed to think that she was a little conceited, and her face was flushed with shyness.
It was so cute.
Tong Xuelu hugged her and kissed her on the face, then picked up a piece of clothing and put it on her.
The clothes were a little big, but the child would still grow taller, so she had to buy something bigger so that she could wear it later.
Tong Mianmian put on her new clothes, her eyes sparkling: "Sister, do I look good?"
Haha, what a conceited little girl.
Tong Xuelu pinched her little face and said affirmatively: "She looks good, whatever Mianmian wears!"
When the little girl heard this, her eyes smiled into crescent shapes.
The puppy heard the excitement here and crawled over to join in the fun.
Tong Mianmian was afraid that it would pee on its new clothes, so she shouted to take the new clothes away. The room was so noisy.
Tong Jiaming looked at his brother and sister who were fighting, turned around and looked at Tong Xuelu again, and a feeling he had never had before surged in his heart.
When his parents just passed away, he felt like the sky was falling. Although he kept telling his brothers and sisters that nothing would happen, he was actually as panicked as they were.
He was terribly scared. He was afraid that he would not be able to support his younger brothers and sisters in the future, and he was even more afraid that he would be taken back to his hometown by his grandmother and uncle.
Just when he was most confused and helpless, Tong Xulu appeared.
He thought that she came back just like him, using him. He needed her to fight against his grandmother, and she needed a place to live and a job.
He thought that there was only a cold cooperative relationship between them.
But since she came, they can often eat meat, and they no longer need to give most of their wages to their hometown like before.
They live in a good house, have a bicycle, and now they have new clothes.
All these changes happened after she came.
Tong Jiaming pursed his lips, wanting to shout out the word "sister" like Tong Jiaxin, but his mouth moved twice, and the word "sister" still did not come out.
**
Tong Jiaxin was just as excited as the last time he got a bicycle. He fell asleep in the middle of the night and almost couldn't get up the next day.
It's a pity that the weather is not very cold now, otherwise he will definitely wear new clothes to go to school so that his classmates will envy him.
The two of them pushed the bicycle to school again.
That's right, pushing, not riding.
Although Tong Jiaming has learned to ride, he can't carry others. Originally, he didn't want to ride a bicycle to school, but Tong Jiaxin liked to show off too much.
He thought it was a waste to leave the bicycle at home without anyone riding it. Even if they couldn't ride it, they had to push it to school so that their classmates would know that they had a bicycle.
Of course, the classmates in the class were indeed very jealous of Tong Jiaxin. In order to touch the bicycle, several of them became Tong Jiaxin's followers.
That morning, the two of them pushed their bicycles to the school gate and bumped into Jiang Ming.
Enemies often meet
on narrow roads.
Enemies are jealous of each other.
Tong Jiaxin glanced at Jiang Ming and deliberately said loudly: "Brother, let me ride a bicycle when I go home today. I will definitely learn it after practicing more today!" Tong Jiaming
knew that his brother was deliberately showing off in front of Jiang Ming, and nodded in cooperation: "Okay."
Tong Jiaxin's smile became even brighter, shaking his head and hips, showing off.
Jiang Ming raised his eyebrows and glared at Tong Jiaxin hatefully.
It was this idiot sister who caused his cousin to be criticized, and caused their whole family to be laughed at when they go out, and even caused him to be scolded by his parents.
Everything is the fault of this idiot!
Jiang Ming got angrier and angrier. He lowered his head like a cow and rushed towards Tong Jiaxin.
Tong Jiaming had been on guard against Jiang Ming. When he saw him rushing towards him, he quickly pulled his brother.
Jiang Ming missed and couldn't brake, so he fell to the ground.
Tong Jiaxin realized it later and his face turned red with anger.
He ran up and kicked him: "Jiang Ming, you shameless man, you actually want to hit me?"
Jiang Ming's palm was broken and he gasped in pain.
Hearing Tong Jiaxin's words, he raised his head and cursed back: "You are shameless, your sister is even more shameless, your whole family is shameless!"
Tong Jiaxin was so angry that smoke came out of his head, and he stepped forward and kicked him again: "You are shameless, your cousin is a slut, and your whole family is not good people!"
The students around heard this and their eyes fell on Jiang Ming.
"So he is the nephew of the teacher who had an affair?"
"Yes, it's him, my mother told me not to play with him, it's so embarrassing to have an affair!"
"My mother said so too, and she also said that if I dare to play with him, she would break my legs!"
Jiang Ming heard what everyone said, his face turned red like pig liver, and he was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
He got up and wanted to pounce on Tong Jiaxin again, but was kicked away by Tong Jiaming.
He took two steps back and fell heavily to the ground. Tong Jiaxin was so angry that he
jumped up and down: "Your cousin is a slut, your grandfather was corrupt and took bribes, and took things from the state. Now he has been arrested. Your whole family is a bad element!" Jiang Ming was stunned. His grandfather was arrested? How could it be? His mother clearly said that his grandfather went to another province for inspection and would not be back for a month. He came to his senses and cursed through gritted teeth: "Tong Jiaxin, you idiot, if you dare to talk nonsense again, I will tell the teacher!"
Tong Jiaxin twisted his hips and said, "Go ahead, if you have the guts, go ahead. Even if your grandpa is arrested, he might be shot!"
Shot!
As soon as he said this, the students around him took a deep breath and backed away in fear, staying away from Jiang Ming.
Tong Jiaming pulled Tong Jiaxin's sleeve and said disapprovingly, "Stop talking, class is about to start!"
Tong Jiaxin then made a face at Jiaming, turned around and ran away.
The other students also ran away, and the playground suddenly became quiet.
Jiang Ming was left sitting on the ground alone. The more he thought about it, the more scared he became. He ran home crying to ask the adults.
But the house was in chaos and no one could take care of him.
Seeing that the adults ignored him, he suddenly felt very uncomfortable, so he lay on the ground and made a fuss like before.
Because of Jiang Huarong's incident, everyone in the Jiang family was fired from their jobs.
Everyone was already furious, worried and scared. After they coaxed Jiang Ming for a few words, he continued to make trouble.
Jiang Ming's father got angry and slapped him in the face.
Jiang Ming's father was angry, and the slap hit Jiang Ming's face, causing his nose to bleed.
Jiang Ming had been spoiled since he was a child, and no one had ever touched him.
This slap directly stunned him. When he came to his senses, he was so angry that his face turned red. He didn't even bother to wipe the blood from his nose, and he butted his father's stomach with his head.
Jiang Ming's father was caught off guard and was hit in the stomach. He gasped in pain.
He had felt a little guilty for beating his son, and now his anger rose up again, and he raised his foot and kicked.
Jiang Ming was kicked out, and his head hit the wall behind him, and bright red blood spurted out from the back of his head.
Jiang Ming blinked twice and passed out.
The Jiang family was in chaos.
**
Because there were several forces keeping an eye on Jiang Huarong.
In addition, the evidence was irrefutable, and the Jiang family had no way out.
They also tried to ask their usual friends and relatives for help, but those who were usually so good to them were now avoiding them.
They also tried to find Jiang Danhong, trying to persuade her to withdraw the report on Jiang Huarong.
But they couldn't even see Jiang Danhong!
After a few days, the verdict finally came down.
Jiang Huarong was convicted of murdering the children of martyrs, abusing his power for personal gain, embezzlement and bribery, and embezzlement of state property. He was sentenced to death by firing squad.
Some members of the Jiang family participated in the crime, while others were convicted of harboring criminals. They were sentenced to between one and five years in prison and were all sent to farms for reform.
Jiang Ming was not sent to the farm because he was young and did not participate in the crime.
But his family was sent away, and he could not survive alone.
He was sent to his relatives' home as a last resort, but none of his relatives wanted to adopt him. But
they could not not adopt him, so they had to discuss raising him for a period of time.
So Jiang Ming took turns living in the homes of several relatives. It was impossible for him to go to school, and his relatives did not welcome him.
In short, it was as miserable as it could be.
After Wen Rugui learned the verdict, he asked for leave from the base and ran back to the city.
He went to visit Jiang Danhong first.
Jiang Danhong had been following Jiang Huarong's case and learned that Jiang Huarong was shot and all the other members of the Jiang family were sent to the farm for reform.
She was so excited that tears flowed down her face again.
The Jiang family's revenge has been avenged, and the next is the father and son of the Red Star Production Team leader.
She will not let anyone who has tortured her go!
Wen Rugui knew that she still insisted on reporting her husband's family, and nodded and said, "Since you have made up your mind, let us help you!"
Jiang Danhong said gratefully: "Thank you, Comrade Wen, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would never be able to help my brother get justice in this life!" Pu
Jianyi on the side:? ?
What about him? What about him?
She was just grateful to Wen Rugui, he also contributed!
But Jiang Danhong seemed not to see his eager eyes and simply ignored him.
It's not that Jiang Danhong is ungrateful, but during the time she lived in Pu's house, Pu Jianyi had been trying to persuade her to give up reporting to her husband's family.
If he hadn't been kind to her, she really wanted to punch him in the face on the spot!
He hadn't experienced her suffering, what qualifications did he have to persuade her to be tolerant?
So she didn't hit him, which was enough to give him face, and he actually wanted to hear her say thank you?
How funny!
As the child of a martyr, Jiang Danhong's house was sentenced to be returned to her.
Part of her parents' dowry could also be returned to her, but Jiang Danhong refused and handed it all over to the state.
In addition, she can choose to work in one of the work units of those people in the Jiang family.
After careful consideration, Jiang Danhong chose to teach at the school.
She used to be a teacher in the production team, and this was the only thing she knew.
After the Jiang family was sent to the farm, Jiang Danhong moved out of Pu Jianyi's house and returned to the Jiang family.
However, she did not plan to live in the Jiang family for a long time. As soon as she returned, she went to the housing management office to register and planned to sell the house.
Then she ran to live in the school dormitory.
**
Jiang Danhong's affairs were considered to be settled. As for reporting her husband's family, it was actually easier than reporting Jiang Huarong.
Someone followed up on this matter, so Wen Rugui was not needed.
After Wen Rugui said goodbye to her, he went home first.
When Grandpa Wen saw him coming back, he immediately frowned: "Why did you take leave again? You haven't taken as many leave as you have this year in the past seven or eight years combined!"
Although Grandpa Wen was very happy to see his grandson, he was a man of the older generation and was the most serious about his work. Seeing that his grandson had taken so many leave recently, he naturally did not approve.
Wen Rugui pursed his lips and said, "I've dealt with it, and I won't take leave in the future."
Old Master Wen snorted and said, "The Jiang family's affairs have been dealt with, but what about your own?"
Wen Rugui was stunned for a moment: "What do I have to say?"
Old Master Wen was very angry: "You didn't report Jiang Huarong for the sake of the martyr's children. You did it for the young grass at the beginning. You put so much effort into it, don't you want her to know?"
Wen Rugui: "..."
Old Master Wen knew what he was thinking when he saw him like this, and immediately he was so angry that his beard trembled: "You really don't plan to tell me?"
Wen Rugui: "Yeah."
"You idiot!" Old Master Wen almost cursed, "How can you catch up with a young girl if you keep going like this?"
Wen Rugui's eyelashes drooped, his eyes were heavy: "Grandpa, I'm helping her purely to fight for justice"
Old Master Wen was so angry that he was about to smoke: "You idiot, you obviously like a young girl, if you didn't like her, would you ask for leave every day like this?"
Wen Rugui's eyelashes trembled a few times, staring at Old Master Wen blankly.
The hall was quiet for a few seconds.
Seeing his silly look, Mr. Wen suddenly felt a headache: "You don't know that you like each other, do you?"
Wen Rugui still looked very calm, but his heart was surging.
Did he really like Comrade Tong?
Is this called love?
After leaving the military compound, Wen Rugui still looked like he was struck by lightning.
He originally wanted to go back to the base directly.
But when he walked out of the door, his feet unconsciously went towards the south of the city.
In order to help Wang Nianzhen make braised pork, Tong Xulu prepared the hotel's food into a big pot in advance, and then asked for leave to come back and make it.
She was quick and nimble, and handed the braised pork to the other party after making it.
Seeing that it was still early, she boiled a pot of hot water to give the little puppy a bath.
The puppy hadn't taken a bath since coming back, and it smelled bad.
Halfway through the bath, there was a knock on the door.
Her hands were covered with foam, and she couldn't leave for a while.
Wei Zhuzhu and Tong Mianmian volunteered to open the door for her.
While she was applying soap to the puppy, she said to herself, "Little guy, are you comfortable?"
The puppy squinted and barked fiercely.
Tong Xuelu was so cute that her heart trembled, and suddenly remembered that she hadn't named it yet: "By the way, I haven't named you yet? What do you want to be called? Wangcai? Laifu?"
Thinking of these tacky names, Tong Xuelu laughed at herself.
Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of the cute black hair on the puppy's forehead, and she thought to herself, "Why not call you Xiaogui?"
The puppy seemed very dissatisfied with the name, and barked twice with its mouth open: "Woof woof~"
Tong Xuelu persuaded it: "I tell you, I know a man named Wen Rugui, who is very handsome. If you give him the same name as him, maybe you can grow up to be a handsome dog!"
After saying that, she suddenly felt something was wrong.
She raised her head,
