Wan Xinguo's heart sank, and suddenly there was an ominous sign.

"Comrade Lu Jiang, since it concerns Comrade Chen Chen and me, I am qualified to know what is happening in the capital. Our years of comrades-in-arms are no match for your hesitation? Manly man, please do it better."

After he said this, Lu Jiang naturally stopped hiding it.

Wan Xinguo's eyes widened, and he gasped for air. His hands were clenched into fists, and the veins on the backs of his hands were exposed. His anger finally turned into a burst of gratitude, "Thank you, thank you Comrade Lu Jiang, for not letting me stay all this time." I was kept in the dark. I will file an application report now. I won’t go with Shang Kun and the others. I will take a plane and go back early.”

"Okay, I'll ask the army to open a letter of introduction for you." Lu Jiang understood Wan Xinguo's behavior of rushing to the capital as soon as possible.

Wan Xinguo hummed, and then said: "Comrade Lu Jiang, can you lend me two hundred yuan?"

"Borrow money? Where's your salary?"

It's not that Lu Jiang is unwilling to borrow money, but he knows that Wan Xinguo's salary, plus subsidies, can save a lot of savings throughout the year, and his own expenses are very limited.

Wan Xinguo said with a gloomy face, "After I got married, I gave all my savings to Comrade Chen Chen. Later, most of my monthly salary, except for my usual expenses, was sent to her. I just feel that since I'm married, , then it is the wife who is in charge of the family's finances. In this case, she feels comfortable. My salary has not been paid this month, and I only have more than ten yuan in hand, but the air tickets and train tickets back are not cheap. You have to find a place to live, and everything costs money.”

Lu Jiang went home and asked Feng Qingxue to give him three hundred yuan and some food stamp money. "Just one plane ticket and one train ticket can almost convert the money. You must bring some money with you." Just for emergencies. Here are twenty kilograms of food stamps, take them with you, and I will give you the dry food that Xibao’s mother made for you when you leave. If you are poor and rich, you will definitely bring more."

Although he was forty years old, Wan Xinguo's nose still felt sore, "Thank you, Comrade Lu Jiang."

Lu Jiang handed him another note, "Where Xibao's mother lived when she was in the capital for confinement, the landlord is a veteran of the Anti-Japanese War. He is a very nice person and the neighbors are very kind. If you have no place to live in the capital, please ask for help. It’s absolutely no problem to take him in for a few days. Xibao’s mother has prepared some gifts for the old man. If you go to the military area, you can go to Deputy Commander Zhao first.”

"Okay!" Wan Xinguo had a new understanding of Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue's character.

He rented the other party's house for only a short period of time, but he still didn't forget his feelings after leaving, which shows his kindness.

Feng Qingxue prepared dry food for Wan Xinguo for three days, and made a set of clothes and two pairs of cotton shoes for Hong Zhanjun. This set of clothes has both inside and outside, covering all seasons. She sent a telegram to Wang Xinsheng for the size. .

After Wan Xinguo arrived in the capital after a long journey, he first went to visit Hong Zhanjun.

The old man was full of energy and was arguing with Lu Bing at the door. When he saw Wan Xinguo appearing at his door, he looked at him curiously and learned that he was a comrade of Xibao's father. The two old men immediately stepped forward and surrounded Wan Xinguo.

"Xibao, in a blink of an eye, I've been away for more than a year. Have you grown taller?" Lu Bing's attitude was particularly enthusiastic.

Wan Xinguo said with a smile: "I'm taller, I'm thinner, and I look thinner than when I was a child."

Lu Bing stamped his feet for a while, "Lose weight? It must be because of hardship."

Hong Zhanjun had never seen Xibao, but after he came back, he heard his neighbors mention it. At that time, his ears were calloused, and he rolled his eyes at Lu Bing, "Why do parents let their children suffer? I didn't listen to this brother What do you mean? As you grow taller, you will naturally lose weight."
