"I want my father to come back and give me zuoji legs and shrimp."
Qiao Xinwei tried to keep calm and said, "Will Mom do it for you?"
"I don’t want you to cook as well as dad."
"Dad, he may not come back." In fact, she is not sure about many things. She suddenly became very confused, even more confused than when she fled the capital four years ago.
Xi Bao was too young to know anything. He looked up at his mother’s eyes and asked, "When can dad come back?"
Qiao Xinwei touched her little face in a panic. She didn’t know when Jiang Hao would come back, but she knew that this time must not affect Jiang Hao. She wouldn’t forget what it was like when Jiang Hao received the words from the army. Sometimes she agreed with him, but she understood him.

Chapter 34 Bad news in the army (3)
Qiao Xinwei never thought it was a difficult thing to put her children to sleep, but today she was fighting bravely and bravely and didn’t fall asleep until eleven o’clock.
She suddenly realized that she was used to having her father with her, and she was used to relying on Jiang Hao.
Jiang Hao didn’t come back, so she couldn’t sleep peacefully. She went back to the living room and watched the news channel. Some people said it was a terrorist organization, while others said it was a prelude to foreign aggression, all kinds of speculations and comments.
The hour hand has pointed to twelve o’clock. Joe only picked up the phone a few times and pressed the Jiang Hao number, but he couldn’t bear to dial it out. He picked it up several times and put it back.
About two o’clock, the door lock suddenly moved, and Qiao Xin’s only tingle jumped up from the sofa and ran to the door.
When the door opened, she took the inside handle and pushed him outside, looking at each other.
Jiang Hao was dissatisfied with bloodshot eyes, and his eyes were full of guilt. Whether he was guilty of the dead soldiers or Joe Xinwei, he was guilty of this family.
Qiao Xinwei squeezed out a bitter smile and reached for his hand. She grabbed his hand and squeezed it for two times. She lingered for a long time before saying, "Come in, it’s cold outside."
The living room is very quiet, although the visual volume has been reduced to a minimum. In the Xuan place, Jiang Hao can still hear clearly. He didn’t say anything, but suddenly hugged her.
Qiao Xinwei didn’t move, just let him hold her and pat him on the back. She didn’t know what she could do.
Everything at home is good. There is heating, a wife and children. The more ordinary warmth, the more you can crush the heart of a steel man. Jiang Hao has been depressed for a long time, and tears welled up.
Qiao Xinwei felt that he was shaking, and she could feel his heart beating violently, and his breath was short and chaotic.
Sometimes there are some things that she agrees with him, but she understands him.
"None of them came back, and none of the three rows of soldiers came back," Jiang Hao sobbed in her neck. "I brought them into the army in those days, and I put them into three rows. They were all afraid of me, but they respected me. I was strict with them. I punished them. I never praised them. I never smiled at them. Now I regret it. I regret leaving them alone. I never worry about them. I wonder all day today if I took them for exercises. Will the results be different? ? But I really regret it now, and I feel guilty. They are all alive and the best soldiers. None of them came back? ?”
Qiao Xinwei had never seen Jiang Hao cry like this and be so mouthy. At that moment, she could directly feel the pain and torture suffered by Jiang Haoxin. At that moment, she loved him dearly.
This incident is turned upside down for their family, not only Jiang Hao Qiao Xin only sleeps at night, but also Jiang Zhizhong and Lin Caiyin.
Section 13
The next morning, before dawn, the old couple let the driver bring it over regardless of the cold.
Joe was surprised to see them, but of course, "Mom and Dad, you came here so early. Did you have breakfast? Let me cook some porridge."
Jiang Zhizhong’s whole person is in low pressure. Without saying a word, he went straight to the sofa and sat there. His face was ugly, but he was not angry and ugly, but heavy and very heavy.
Lin Caiyin: "We can’t eat A Hao when you are not busy. Did you sleep well last night?"
Qiao Xinwei truthfully said, "He didn’t sleep until dawn. I’ll call him."
Qiao Xinwei walked downstairs and was about to go to the door. Jiang Hao hit "My parents are coming and I was just about to call you" from the inside. Jiang Hao nodded faintly and took her hand and went downstairs.
Four people were sitting on the sofa in the living room. Lin Caiyin was the first one. She said, "A Hao, you have changed jobs. You can’t remember that you are not in the army now. You don’t listen to orders."
Jiang Hao smiled naively. "Mom and dad are retired. In a word, he still has to listen to the order. My soup brigade commander asked me to think for myself. I just respect that I really want an order for my dad. I still have to listen to it."
Lin Caiyin’s face became quite haggard. "Then let your father say that we don’t go to the old man."
Jiang Zhizhong was silent, and the whole person was surrounded by cold aura, which was so serious that people were afraid.
Lin Caiyin timidly withdrew her eyes and looked at Qiao Xinwei again. "You don’t want Jiang Hao to go. Xi Bao is still so young, and you don’t want to have no husband at a young age." She quickly slapped herself. "Bah bah, when I didn’t say that sentence just now."
The atmosphere was quiet, and Lin Caiyin sighed heavily. After a while, she couldn’t help crying. "Don’t talk. I am the only one who wants peace in A Hao. I am the only one who wants a peaceful day. I am the only one who is selfish."
Jiang Zhizhong snorted and said, "Don’t wake Xi Bao up."
Qiao Xinwei smoked the paper and handed it to him. "Mom, don’t do this. A Hao has his own considerations."
Lin Caiyin grabbed the paper towel. "Then let him miss you alone and don’t stop him." She wiped her tears and said earnestly, "I don’t like you, but I also know that A Hao has you in his heart. Your words are older than the two of us."
Qiao Xinwei bowed his head. In fact, they didn’t say a word that night, lying in bed and hugging each other to listen to each other’s breathing. There was no communication at all.
She glanced back at Jiang Hao, who didn’t dare to look at his eyes, and then took them back. She said, "He knows what I think in my heart. I don’t want to persuade him, but if I say it at this time, it will be more difficult for him."
Jiang Hao silently grasped her hand and felt sour.
Lin Caiyin cried for a while again. Think about it. I really feel that I am unlucky. Can’t I let her enjoy her old age? Can’t I let her die?
Jiang Zhizhong finally asked, "What are the arrangements for the funeral?"
"Thirty-four soldiers were shipped back last night, and today’s family members will come one after another. It is conceivable that today’s atmosphere in the army is a day of mourning, and leaders will attend the meeting and attach great importance to it."
"Well, it’s a national humiliation, of course."
Lin Caiyin hit the nail on the head. "Since the old man A Hao pays so much attention to this kind of thing, he must have come forward to solve it, so he won’t be in A Hao."
Jiang Hao said, "Brigadier Tang means a comprehensive approach. No matter whether it is Vietnamese negotiations or UN talks, there will be a plan and someone will be in charge, but there must be someone in the army to negotiate and talk. There are still many things that cannot be handled in the public army."
Jiang Hao made it very obscure. Brigadier Tang has spoken as much as he can. The army has a confidentiality agreement, which is also the reason why he can’t talk too much. Many things can be borne by him alone.
