CHAPTER 113
Our Lao Dong family can't live without a grandson.
On the third day,
The Tong Gang came back.
The expression on his face was not as grave as before.
"You're back? Has the matter been resolved? "Su Xiao asked with concern.
Tong Gang took off his hat.
"I'll take a shower first.
I'll tell you when I come back. "
Judging from Tong Gang's expression,
She felt that things had already passed. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so relaxed.
He walked to the balcony and saw the soldiers standing guard outside. The atmosphere was not as tense as before, but they were still on alert.
At this moment, Sister Gui's voice could be heard from the house next door. Deputy Political Commissar Song's voice could be heard from the balcony, "It's already fine.
There won't be a war, don't worry. "
Su Xiao was stunned for a moment. Deputy Political Commissar Song's words made her feel relieved.
However, she did not hear it from the Tong Gang.
She was still a little worried.
Not long after, Tong Gang came out of the shower.
He was holding a large towel and drying his hair.
"Is the war over?" Su Xiao asked anxiously.
Tong Gang sat down on the sofa.
While drying his hair,
She said, "Lanzi.
Are you worried sick? "
"Yes.
He was anxious.
I'm just afraid that you'll be on the battlefield again. "
He still couldn't accept this.
It was not easy to fight at the front line. Bullets were flying everywhere. She was worried about him.
"Don't worry, there won't be a war for now. Do you still remember that I once told you that your brother and I have a mortal enemy? "
"The one called Wu Keshuang?" She remembered this name.
Years ago, when Second Brother was involved in a fight, he was almost killed by this person. After that, the Tong Gang had been trying to track this person down. They had clashed several times, but this person had always managed to escape. So far, this person was still alive and well. She heard that he had even been promoted, so she had a deep impression of him.
"The trouble at the border this time was caused by this person. He once went to Old Russia to study special operations, so this time, he used special operations to launch an attack on my border troops. That was why the casualties were so heavy. However, they escaped immediately after the battle. We can't find them anymore, "Tong Gang explained.
Su Xiao said, "Why is this Wu Keshuang so annoying? Now that both countries are in a state of rest and reorganization, why is he so nosy and fanning the flames everywhere? "
The Tong Gang also felt that this Wu Keshuang was quite despicable. His shadow could be seen in many wars. He always appeared and disappeared mysteriously, appearing in every corner.
"This person can't wait for the two countries to go to war," Su Xiao muttered.
The Tong Gang was also thinking about this. "He's a war maniac. He can't wait for the war to start."
The couple chatted for a while before Tong Gang said, "Let's not talk about these heavy topics. Mom called and asked us to go back. "
"Mom?" Su Xiao furrowed her brows.
She was really against her mother-in-law. Although Hu Tuan's attitude towards her was not as bad as before, he kept staring at her stomach and kept asking her when she was going to give birth.
To be honest, she and the Tong Gang had their own plans. However, she felt pressured by Hu Tuan's stare, so she was afraid to go back to her mother-in-law's house.
"What's wrong? Are you unhappy? Or do you not want to go back? "The Tong Gang asked when he saw her expression change.
"No, I want to go back too. It's just that every time I go back, Mom will ask me when I'm going to give birth. I don't know how to answer."
The Tong Gang said, "Just because of this? I've already told Mom that we'll have a child after you graduate. "
"Mom agreed?" Su Xiao raised her head.
"Mom agreed. She sounded quite happy."
Su Xiao thought to herself, 'That's because you're her son. Of course, she won't vent her anger on you.
Since we're going back, we have to buy something. We can't go back empty-handed, right? '
"Why buy a gift? We're going back to our own house for dinner. Why would we bring a gift? How distant would that be?" The Tong Gang rejected her idea.
"You can't say that. We don't usually go back often. Since we're going back occasionally, we have to bring something back."
"That's why we have to go back more often. If we go back every weekend, Mom and Dad will be happy too."
Su Xiao still bought some things back. She bought cigarettes and alcohol for the Political Commissar Tong, some nourishing tonics for Hu Tuan, and some skincare products.
For women, beauty was a public topic. There wasn't a single woman who didn't like beautiful people, even an old man like Hu Tuan. Therefore, she bought some skincare products back to please her.
When they returned to the military compound, the sentinel at the entrance looked at their identification and let them in.
The Political Commissar Tong was practicing Tai Chi in the courtyard. When he saw them, he stopped and said, "You're back?"
Su Xiao called out, "Dad," and asked, "Where's Mom?"
The Political Commissar Tong smiled and said, "Your Mom went to the market. She knew that you were coming back, so she prepared everything." When he saw the things they were carrying, he asked, "Why did you buy so many things back home?"
"We didn't buy much. Just some cigarettes and alcohol and some nourishing tonics. Your daughter-in-law was thinking about you and your parents, so she insisted on buying them," the Tong Gang explained as he followed them into the house.
Although the Political Commissar Tong said that it was a waste of money, he still smiled. He liked it when his children thought about them.
Not long after, Hu Tuan came back with a basket full of vegetables. Su Xiao hurried into the kitchen and said, "Mom, let me help you."
"I don't need your help. The kitchen is full of smoke and smoke. Hurry up and leave. You just have to live a good life with Gangzi and give birth to a chubby grandson for me. "
After Su Xiao was chased out by her mother, the Tong Gang said, "You shouldn't have gone to the kitchen. Now that we're home, you don't have to do anything. You just have to sit quietly and eat."
Su Xiao did not want to help and sat down with a clear conscience. As she listened to the Political Commissar Tong and the Tong Gang's analysis of the war situation, she picked up a book and started reading.
She was reading a magazine. To be precise, it was a fashion magazine. It should be a magazine that Commander Hu subscribed to. As the head of the Arts and Crafts Regiment, how could Hu Tuan not be at the forefront of fashion?
"Dad, do you think that we can start a war with the Yue Kingdom?" This was what the Tong Gang was most concerned about.
Based on his analysis of the current situation, he felt that the war would start again in the next few years. However, the Political Commissar Tong was the Deputy Political Commissar of the Military Region, so he knew more about the war than him.
"The war will start again in at most two years." The Political Commissar Tong muttered to himself.
"Is the Yue Kingdom not afraid of the war?" The Tong Gang frowned.
Although Hua suffered heavy casualties during the war, the Yue Kingdom suffered more casualties and suffered more losses. Almost all the houses in the cities where the war broke out had collapsed.
"They have the support of Russia, so they will not give up. They want to take over the surrounding countries and expand their territory. But those countries will not give up so easily, so they will seek help from their neighbors. The reason why Hua attacked them is because they are too arrogant and they are fighting for territory. "
If the surrounding countries were really conquered, the Yue Kingdom's ambition would affect Hua's peace. Therefore, no matter what, the Yue Kingdom will not allow the Yue Kingdom to conquer the surrounding countries.
"War is a waste of money and manpower." The Tong Gang sighed.
"Lao Dong, bring the dishes out." Hu Tuan shouted from the kitchen. "Stop talking about the war. Why are you talking about work at home?"
The Tong Gang and Su Xiao stood up immediately, but the Political Commissar Tong said, "Sit down. I'll bring the dishes out."
The dishes were sumptuous. There were meat, vegetables, and soup.
Hu Tuan's culinary skills were superb, and the dishes were delicious.
"Come, Lanzi. Have some fish. It's nutritious." Hu Tuan picked up some fish for Su Xiao with his chopsticks.
Su Xiao was flattered. She did not expect Hu Tuan to pick up food for her. This was something she never dared to hope for. She also picked up some food for Hu Tuan. "Mom, you eat too."
The Political Commissar Tong and the Tong Gang watched and felt gratified. They drank their wine and pretended not to see anything.
Hu Tuan said, "Lanzi, eat more. You are too skinny. Work is important, but your health is more important. You are pregnant. Eat more and gain weight so that you can give birth to a grandson. "
The Tong Gang interrupted, "Mom, you keep talking about a grandson. What if it's a granddaughter?"
Hu Tuan was stunned. She had never thought of giving birth to a granddaughter.
The Tong family only had one heir, so her mind was filled with grandchildren.
"A granddaughter is good too. I would rather have a granddaughter." The Political Commissar Tong continued.
However, Hu Tuan said, "What do you know? Our Tong family will definitely have a grandchild. "
Su Xiao suddenly felt a lot of pressure. What if she did not have a grandchild? She could not help but look at the Tong Gang.
Tong Gang naturally saw Su Xiao's gaze. He said, "Mom, it's not up to us to decide whether we have a son or a daughter. Can't we just let nature take its course?"
Hu Tuan's face fell. "No, the Tong family cannot not have a grandchild."
The Political Commissar Tong hurriedly laughed. "It's okay. If the first child is a daughter, we can have a second child."
Hu Tuan's expression became much better.
However, only Su Xiao felt upset. She knew that family planning was coming soon. In the future, they could only have one child. But what if the first child was not a son?
She suddenly realized that marrying an only son also had its disadvantages. For example, they were discussing matters regarding their grandson now.
She felt that the dishes on the table were tasteless.
Tong Gang saw this scene. He picked up some food for her and said, "I like daughters. Lanzi, you must give birth to a daughter for me. "
The moment he said this, Su Xiao's expression became much better. At the same time, it made Hu Tuan's face contort in anger.
This guy forgot about his mother after getting a wife. Hu Tuan gritted his teeth in hatred. He looked at Su Xiao with disdain.
Political Commissar Tong hurriedly said, "Eat. It's true that having a child is not up to them. Meimei, why are you worrying? You want a grandchild. Maybe God will send you two. So, the children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. Don't put too much pressure on them. "
Hu Tuan muttered before letting Su Xiao and Tong Gang off the hook.
However, Su Xiao knew that this topic would never end. It would continue to be brought up.
