Men and women eating in the courtyard

Li Xuewu and the others could not leave, so those who came with the garrison cadres directly stationed in the former Public Security Brigade compound, now the Third Guards Regiment compound, and immediately began the reorganization work.

Of course, the training work did not start so soon. Both Li Xuewu and Wang Xiaoqin were able to enjoy Sunday off.

So today, Saturday, is also the last day of this week. They have to cooperate with the garrison cadres and Qi Yaowu and others to carry out the adaptation work.

The adaptation office was set up in the conference room of the Public Security Brigade. The former members of the Public Security Brigade, who had heard the adaptation plan at the conference, went to the large conference room in confusion and excitement with files on personnel, weapons, equipment, consumables and other materials to start preparing materials. Work.

Li Xuewu, Qi Yaowu and others walked into the small conference room and started the first regiment cadre meeting after the reorganization of the Weisan regiment.

There are procedures for the adaptation work. Li Xuewu and the others don't have to worry or panic. All the work will be carried out in an orderly manner. As long as they do their own work, someone will take care of the rest.

Li Xuewu sat next to Qi Yaowu according to his job rank, and Wang Xiaoqin sat next to Zhao Zhenhua, which was exactly the corresponding position.

Also attending the meeting was deputy commander Chu Nanfang, who was sitting next to Li Xuewu. Sitting opposite was Chief of Staff Zhang Chenggong, and sitting next to him was Shen Fang.

According to normal procedures, this kind of meeting should also include the director of the management department, the director of the logistics department, and the director of the equipment department.

Because the Weisan Regiment was reorganized and not newly built, the cadres in these positions used to work in the compound.

But they are still on the mountain now, and they are dealing with the situation where Qi Yaowu and others are down the mountain.

This was the first time he met Li Xuewu from Chu Nanfang, and Zhao Zhenhua, who was sitting next to Qi Yaowu, introduced him.

It turned out that the above-mentioned personnel were specially selected from other units in consideration of the lack of commanding cadres in the jointly formed Weisan Regiment.

According to Zhao Zhenhua's introduction, he is still a top student. He received higher education before liberation. He has experienced the test of many battles and is a very powerful person.

According to such qualifications, he will be responsible for combat and training, while Li Xuewu will be responsible for general management and logistics.

Li Xuewu stood up and shook hands with the other person. Feeling the other person's kindness, he took the initiative to give him a warm smile.

From Zhao Zhenhua's rather vague introduction, Li Xuewu guessed that this person was probably here for "training", otherwise how could he be a deputy leader with such impressive qualifications?

Perhaps because Chu Nanfang was a newcomer, after Zhao Zhenhua introduced his situation, Wang Xiaoqin took the initiative to introduce the people from the security brigade to him.

After everyone exchanged pleasantries, Qi Yaowu presided over the meeting. The content of the meeting was also to discuss the subsequent adaptation and co-editing matters.

Li Xuewu took a rough look at the adaptation plan in his hand. He found that the enforcement force of the Security Brigade was more than 1,500 people and the agency staff was less than 100. The 816th Regiment had an enforcement force of more than 2,500 people. , there are more than 280 people in the agency.

"The number of people is a bit too high~"

"This is the point we want to discuss."

Qi Yaowu tapped the desk with his pencil and said seriously: "The quota given by the above is 3,000 people, not counting agency personnel."

"Obviously, some people have to be eliminated."

Zhao Zhenhua's transition from deputy to full staff this time was also the result of the reorganization and co-organization. Their group itself was transferred from outside, and the management staff was not fully staffed.

At this moment, Qi Yaowu interrupted after hearing what he said, and at the same time said to Li Xuewu and others: "Including agency management personnel must also be downsized."

Wang Xiaoqin glanced at Li Xuewu and said: "If it involves the former public security brigade agencies and executive personnel, what is the resettlement plan for the eliminated personnel?"

She is the deputy political commissar and the former political commissar of the security brigade. She is in charge of personnel issues. She is qualified and obliged to handle these matters.

Zhao Zhenhua nodded and said: "All personnel are within the scope of downsizing, but I communicated with Comrade Yaowu and the garrison in the early stage. In principle, we try to retain the training personnel of the security brigade."

"Because their basic cultural quality is higher"

Qi Yaowu said: "Although I feel distressed and helpless, this is the fact."

Maybe it was the heat, or maybe he was really anxious. There were beads of sweat on his forehead.

"There are too many people in the regiment who have failed cultural standards and are no longer suitable for the current overall development and needs. This is an objective elimination and selection of the times."

Chu Nanfang nodded and said: "I agree, the basic quality of the personnel directly determines the team's development potential and equipment acceptance."

As he spoke, he glanced at Zhao Zhenhua and continued: "Especially the mission that the organization has given our group in a new era and new period."

"Yeah~"

Zhao Zhenhua sighed helplessly and said to Li Xuewu: "If you let me choose, of course I would prefer to keep the veterans, because they can be used directly without training."

"But this is also a disadvantage!"

Zhao Zhenhua's words were very thorough and firm, as if he was working for himself as well as for Qi Yaowu.

"We are a jointly adapted team, and the direction of task execution has changed. From offense to defense, we need to make a big turn."

Li Xuewu glanced at Wang Xiaoqin, frowned and suggested, "I have a suggestion."

Seeing everyone looking at him, Li Xuewu spread his palms on the table and said: "Because it is a joint adaptation, the problem should be viewed and solved from multiple aspects and angles."

"For example, the former cadres and executive officers of the August 16th Regiment can be diverted and resettled."

“Not very realistic”

Qi Yaowu frowned and said: "Now the personnel saturation of each unit is very high, especially after the joint reorganization, the issue of identity has been fixed, even if the garrison area accepts them, there won't be too many."

This involves the local management system and actual situation. The 816th Regiment was not a special regiment before, and its personnel and cadres were not particularly outstanding, but placement was a problem.

According to the comprehensive reorganization plan in Li Xuewu's hands, eliminating these personnel would mean changing jobs and retiring from the army.

"I'll go talk to Bureau Zheng from the security brigade."

Wang Xiaoqin said: "Whether it is agency personnel or personnel in training, the eliminated ones can solve the placement problem."

"This is a big problem"

Zhao Zhenhua looked at Wang Xiaoqin and nodded, expressing his gratitude.

Wang Xiaoqin pursed her lips and replied: "This is what I should do."

Li Xuewu glanced at Qi Yaowu, who was frowning, and said: "First implement the joint adaptation, eliminate what should be eliminated, and eliminate what should be eliminated. Just do whatever you need to do with this problem."

As he spoke, he took out cigarettes and distributed them to several people in the room. After lighting them up, he said: "I have some connections with Dongcheng, including the steel rolling mill. I can solve whatever problem I can."

As he spoke, he leaned slightly closer to Qi Yaowu and whispered: "The steel rolling mill may set up a shipyard in the steel city by the end of the year. This matter can be discussed."

"How many can be solved?"

Qi Yaowu didn't expect Li Xuewu to be able to solve such a big problem, and couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Li Xuewu tapped his fingers on the table and said, "I'm not sure. I'll tell you when the time comes. If it doesn't work, there are other directions."

As he spoke, Qi Yaowu nodded and signaled: "You can't die if you are dazed. Let's take care of things step by step."

"Okay, let's put this matter aside for now."

Seeing that Li Xuewu was confident in making arrangements, Qi Yaowu also opened his eyebrows, looked at everyone and said, "Let's discuss the next item, regarding the configuration of weapons and equipment..."

Co-adaptation requires too much work, and it cannot be solved in one meeting, nor can it be completed in one day. Especially since the two units do not originally belong to the same system, it is even more complicated.

After lunch, Li Xuewu returned to his office and first called Dong Wenxue.

Although the training lasts for one month, it is not closed, but it will inevitably affect the work at the steel rolling mill.

Although Dong Wenxue's main energy is no longer with the security department of the steel rolling mill, as his supervisor and the director of the security department, Li Xuewu has to greet him as soon as possible.

Dong Wenxue was also surprised when faced with this situation, but the joint adaptation was within Li Xuewu's expectation. He had communicated with Dong Wenxue when he was preparing for the security brigade.

As Li Xuewu's teacher, Dong Wenxue naturally supports his development in many aspects, and his transfer from the security brigade is also a good thing.

Li Xuewu himself is a career changer. This leap forward has given him a particularly deep guarantee for his identity and future.

Of course, you can't give up your job in the steel rolling mill, let alone give up your job in the steel rolling mill because of a job change.

After today's meeting, Zheng Fuhua and the leaders of the garrison gave Li Xuewu an organizational talk.

In principle, it is agreed that Li Xuewu retains two identities. The main reason is that the subject of the joint adaptation is not the security brigade, but the direction of performing tasks is biased towards the security brigade.

The reason why the August 16th Regiment was transferred to the capital was to support the construction of local militia and support city defense and defense.

After the joint adaptation, the purpose became stronger and the work became more specific. This is the development direction defined by Li Xuewu for the security brigade.

Retaining Li Xuewu's identity is more suitable for urban security work, and arranging for him to serve as the first deputy political commissar will also facilitate him to connect and coordinate the work of local powerful departments.

During lunch, Qi Yaowu told him about the preliminary preparations of the Weisan Regiment. It was he who strongly advocated and applied to transfer Li Xuewu to the reorganization sequence of the Weisan Regiment.

Qi Yaowu particularly recognized Li Xuewu's ability in organizational management and executive management, including reclamation area construction, cooperative production, equipment planning, development planning and strategic vision, etc.

He knows very well how difficult it is for a team to grow from scratch, from 0 to 1,500.

Li Xuewu has shown excellent leadership skills in organizational work and is a partner that Qi Yaowu cannot miss.

The two were also very harmonious during their previous contact and cooperation, making progress with each other and improving together.

Just as Dong Wenxue could see the value of Li Xuewu, he could also see it.

This also caused Dong Wenxue's embarrassment. He could not let Li Xuewu go, and he did not want Li Xuewu to miss this opportunity.

Therefore, the person in charge of the Security Department will become the focus of their research in the next month.

Faced with Dong Wenxu's problem, Li Xuewu offered to let Xiao Zihong, deputy director of the Security Department, temporarily take charge of the work of the Security Department.

It's not like he can't make phone calls. There's no problem in listening to reports and delivering orders. He's just a little busier.

After the joint reorganization, the headquarters of the Third Wei Regiment remained at its original location. As long as the clerks were responsible for delivering messages and documents, Li Xuewu just handed over the temporary disposal rights to the other party.

Li Xuewu didn't say anything, but one thing Dong Wenxu already understood after hearing Li Xuewu's arrangement was that Li Xuewu did not rule out the intention of testing Xiao Zihong.

It goes without saying what position and level Xiao Zihong originally held. The two of them have just formed a team. If Li Xuewu is unable to take charge of the security department for the time being, Xiao Zihong's next work method can be used as a basis for Li Xuewu's attitude towards him.

Li Xuewu thought a lot about this choice, including the responses from the Security Office, the trade project, Li Huaide and other parties.

The most important thing is that August is not a peaceful month. If there is no such thing as training, Li Xuewu is also planning to go to Steel City.

He hasn't been there for almost three months. It's not that he's worried about Wen San'er and the others, nor is he eager to arrange the Steel City. By hiding here, he's also trying to give the people of Steel City an attitude.

Dong Wenxue did not hesitate about Li Xuewu's ideas. Considering that Li Xuewu was the person in charge of the security department of the steel rolling mill, he respected Li Xuewu's judgment and ideas.

Li Xuewu also asked Dong Wenxu to pay more attention to the changes in the steel rolling mill and the changes in the security department.

After communicating with Dong Wenxue, Li Xuewu attended the joint adaptation preparatory meeting in the afternoon and rushed back to the steel rolling mill at four o'clock in the afternoon.

Considering Li Xuewu's dual identity, Qi Yaowu and others took the initiative to take on part of Li Xuewu's work, allowing him time to arrange matters at the steel rolling mill.

According to the plan, the training will officially start next Monday, and the training instructors will be in place today and tomorrow, which means that starting from next Monday, Li Xuewu will have to study and work in this compound all day long.

The same goes for Wang Xiaoqin and Shen Fang. The training work on the mountain is no longer available, and all training has been transferred to the training unit of the Third Wei Regiment in collaboration with the Political Training Department of the Red Star Training Ground.

Another reason why Qi Yaowu insisted on cooperating with Li Xuewu was that he was reluctant to leave the station on the mountain. Without Li Xuewu, there would be no foundation for Hongxing Village.

I don't know since when, Li Xuewu has tied the joint units such as the security brigade and the steel rolling mill with the 816th Regiment, sharing weal and woe and having related interests.

Li Xuewu controls the power of the steel rolling mill. Even if he does not participate in daily management work in the Weisan Regiment, his status is guaranteed.

This is also the reason why Dong Wenxue does not suggest that he give up his job in the steel rolling mill. He knows the priorities better.

The first stop back to the steel rolling mill, Li Xuewu first went to Li Huaide's office to report on his work.

Li Huaide did not receive any news about this in the early stage, nor did he hear Li Xuewu talk about related plans, so after hearing Li Xuewu's report, he didn't know what to say.

After hesitating for a moment, he first said congratulations, but then tested Li Xuewu's attitude and asked him if he had any thoughts of being transferred from the steel rolling mill.

Li Xuewu firmly stated that he would stick to his position and identity in the steel rolling mill, and his personal development should be based on the steel rolling mill.

At the same time, he also implicitly expressed the work content after the transfer, which actually made Li Huaide breathe a sigh of relief.

However, when he relaxed his nervous expression, he couldn't help but think about whether it would be a good thing for him if Li Xuewu was really transferred.

After all, the trend is now established, big things are about to happen, and if there is one less person to share the cake, he can also share more.

But with Li Xuewu's firm answer, he gave up his unrealistic fantasy.

Rather than sharing the cake after success, he hopes to continue cooperating with Li Xuewu. With Li Xuewu here, his chances of winning will always remain high.

Moreover, Li Xuewu's development will not affect his personal development. Next, he needs a strong person to help him maintain his foundation.

The two had the same interests, so the conversation went smoothly, including Li Xuewu's proposal that Xiao Zihong be the temporary agent for the Security Department, which was supported by the other party.

Li Xuewu knew very well that although the Security Office was no longer under Li Huaide's control, he could not break away from Li Huaide's circle. Those who worked on behalf of him had to ensure that they were consistent with him in terms of work pace.

This was also a precautionary measure he took to ensure that the security office would not be penetrated during the training period.

Fire prevention Comrade, the most likely person to replace you is the people around you.

Even though Li Xuewu was helping Xiao Zihong win their support in subsequent conversations with the factory leaders, this was also the reason why Li Xuewu was brought in to supervise and ensure that there would be no trouble in the security department.

As for the grassroots matters, he was naturally not worried. With Han Zhan and Hannya Ting here, no one could disintegrate the unity of the security department without his knowledge.

Of course, Yang Yuansong and others all talked in the office. Li Xuewu searched around and finally found Yang Fengshan at the Workers' Club.

He did not show sympathy or encouragement, nor did he say those irrelevant words, as if he had met by chance and talked about work.

Yang Fengshan was also very casual about Li Xuewu's performance, without any emotion about the late hero. Like Li Huaide, he said congratulations and high hopes for Li Xuewu.

Xiao Zihong was the last person Li Xuewu talked to. He might have heard some news, and he didn't move until he was about to get off work. He has been waiting for Li Xuewu.

Li Xuewu came to his office to talk. The two of them sat on the sofa, listening to the radio music coming from the window, and knew that it was time to get off work.

"I just took over the work. Shouldn't it be better to ask the Director of the Literature Department to take charge of the work?"

Xiao Zihong frowned slightly, put his hands on his knees, looked at Li Xuewu and said, "Actually, it's easier to communicate now. I'll deal with the general things here first, and you can take a look at it on the weekend. If there is an emergency, I will communicate with the director of the literature department."

Li Xuewu waved his hand and said, "It doesn't have to be so troublesome. He has a lot of work there and can't take care of it all."

First, he talked about Dong Wenxu's opinion, and then Li Xuewu mentioned his own situation.

"Although it is not a closed training, everyone is not working on the weekend, so there is no reason for comrades to work overtime."

Li Xuewu smiled and continued: "Our department has never fought such a prosperous battle. In the past, Director Dong and I attended each training session. Now that we are at home, I feel very relieved."

Xiao Zihong smoked a cigarette, glanced at Li Xuewu, and thought to himself: Don't worry about it! I don’t even worry about myself!

"Then let Comrade Qi run a little longer, it won't be far."

Seeing that Li Xuewu wanted to say something, Xiao Zihong raised his hand, the smoke in his hand swayed, and said seriously: "I can temporarily handle the work, but you have to make the necessary decisions. After all, I don't have enough experience." , this is an objective fact."

Li Xuewu thought for a moment, nodded, and said, "That's it."

After saying that, he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "But you have to be mentally prepared. I don't have much time there. If I work too much at night, I really won't have time to rest."

"Haha, those who are able should work harder."

Xiao Zihong smiled and joked with Li Xuewu. I don't know if there was any other meaning in the words, but the meaning was expressed very clearly.

He couldn't take over Li Xuewu's position. Whether he did well or not, it was all faults. He had just been transferred here to work, so there was no need to rush to take responsibility.

Especially during this period, he really didn't have the confidence to grasp the situation. The Security Department was not the Engineering Department, and it was too closely related to the general situation. A slight mistake would be a disaster.

Besides, at such a close distance, would Li Xuewu really give him all the power?

Instead of eating half-baked rice, it is better to divide the responsibilities from the beginning. It is his responsibility, and he will definitely take responsibility seriously.

With his current conditions, even if he takes the security department into outer space, he can only be the deputy director, so why bother with this smiling tiger.

Anyway, he had already thought about it. "Li" rules and "Xiao" follows. If Li Xuewu sets the rules, he will follow the rules. If Li Xuewu doesn't set the rules, he will ask Li Xuewu to do it. In short, he will not suffer any loss.

The conversation between the two lasted only for a cup of tea. Li Xuewu took the initiative to stand up and say goodbye. After arranging things at the factory, he still had to make arrangements at home.

Although the security brigade is not far from home, you can't go home during the working day, and there is evening self-study on the class schedule.

When I came down from upstairs, most of the office staff had gotten off work, and some people came out of the building in groups.

Li Xuewu didn't pay much attention when he saw Jing Yunong's car approaching. Unexpectedly, just as he was about to get in, the car stopped.

Li Xue jumped out of the car with her bag, closed the door, said something to the car window, and then sent the car away, but it was Li Xuewu who came over.

"Second brother, I'll go with you"

"What are you doing? Dumped by your leader?"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and teased Li Xue, and then got into the car with Sha Qizhi's smile.

Li Xue from the Shaqi Gang held the car door and waited until she got in the car and closed it before getting in the passenger seat.

Li Xue did not answer the second brother's words, put away her bag, and took a look at the configuration of the car.

Although she had seen it many times, she was still a little disgusted by the rough style. After all, there were no messy antennas and radio stations in Deputy Director Jing's car.

The car started and Li Xue looked at the car in front of her from a distance. She turned to Li Xuewu and asked, "Why are they saying you are going to training?"

"It's not passed down, that's"

Li Xuewu pulled the switch hard and opened the car window wider. The cool breeze at night was very comfortable and made people want to sleep.

Li Xue frowned and said, "At this time? Are you going to leave for a month?"

Li Xuewu gave her a funny look and asked, "What's wrong? Are you afraid of being alone when I'm not in the factory?"

Li Xue twitched the corner of her mouth and said helplessly: "I'm serious~"

"Who's being immoral?"

Li Xuewu teased her with a smile, then pointed to the front of the car and said: "The security brigade has been reorganized and is under the management of the garrison. I also followed the city and entered the army system. Newcomers need the same training as you did before."

Li Xue looked at Li Xuewu in surprise. She suspected that her second brother was joking, but when he said it like a joke, she knew it was true.

This is really strange, and there is such a transfer?

"What about the work here?"

Li Xue asked nervously: "Are you not going to work here anymore?"

Li Xuewu stretched out his finger and flicked the girl's head. He squinted his eyes slightly and said, "I told you, after one month, it's no different from before."

Li Xue took a look at the second brother's uniform and said there was no difference. Why do you wear white and black on weekdays, and why do you wear green today?

"Aren't you afraid that something might go wrong in our factory?"

After glancing at Sha Qizhi and the driver sitting in front of him, Li Xue pretended to be normal and poked his second brother, squinting his eyes and saying, "You really dare to leave for a month?"

"Haha, anyone who moves away from the earth will turn around."

Li Xuewu pulled away her fingers, pushed her little head away, and said with a slight twitch of his lips: "Speak well, will you do the same with your leader?"

Li Xue curled her lips, blaming her second brother for not understanding her care and for his own good.

However, she could tell from her second brother's words that he had great trust in his secretary and driver.

So she also said something directly: "Our leaders are not as big-hearted as you. The joint enterprise has problems again. The Hongqi Society and Dongfeng Society are in serious trouble."

After speaking, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Second brother, did you do this on purpose?"

"What's intentional?"

Li Xuewu was looking out the window and thinking about his own things. He only regarded Li Xue's words as talkative and coquettish words from his little sister and brother.

Li Xue came to Li Xuewu again, stared into his eyes and said, "I just deliberately took advantage of the training opportunity to avoid danger... to be quiet."

Li Xuewu didn't tolerate her, and gave her another blow. Then he looked at the girl seriously and asked, "Does your second brother look like that kind of person?"

"This is the choice of the times and the people's choice."

Li Xuewu looked out the window again and began to teach his sister a political lesson, which was better than the secretary's speech at the study meeting.

But Li Xue didn't believe it. None of what the second brother said seriously was credible.

Seeing the girl's expression, Li Xuewu seemed to have discovered something, and asked with a smile: "Do you think I am afraid, or do you think your leader is afraid?"

“I don’t know the heart of a good person~”

Li Xue looked like I care about you, but you don't understand me, but when faced with her second brother's question, she looked outside the car.

Li Xuewu and Sha Qizhi, who turned back, looked at each other and smiled.

When he came back in the afternoon, Li Xuewu went to report to the main leaders, but Sha Qizhi was not idle. He had to do both serious work and informal work.

When he went downstairs, he had already reported the current affairs in the factory to Li Xuewu, and Li Xuewu also heard what he said about Deputy Director Jing.

It can be said that this joint venture has really had a bad fate. From the initial establishment of the project to the current suspension of production and work, it is like pulling a cart in a ditch, with bumps every step of the way.

Li Xuewu didn't see Jing Yunong, but he could understand her suffering, and now he could hear it from Li Xue's words.

I'm afraid this person is also living a life of fear.

If there was an opportunity for out-of-town training in the factory, there would probably be a lot of people vying for it.

If Hongqi Society wants to cause trouble, all production areas will naturally become development targets. The production area of ​​the joint enterprise is just outside the wall, and some of the workers inside are from the steel rolling mill. How can they stop it.

Another one, Li Huaide, now drinks and dines with the relevant leaders of the joint enterprises every day, and his purpose is not very pure.

He and Wang Jingzhang were like two people in a race. Wang Jingzhang had few supporters but dared to fight hard, while Li Huaide had many supporters but wanted stability.

So now both of them are working hard to unite everything that can be united, including joint enterprises.

One point of strength may become the key to overpowering the opponent, and one point of strength may become the magic weapon for turning the tables against the wind. The two of them will fight for every bit of their fighting skills.

When Wang Jingzhang sought support from the masses, Li Xuewu played the youth commando card.

When Wang Jingzhang sought the support of grassroots managers, Zhang Guoqi played him a Dongfeng card.

Wang Jingzhang wanted to start a fight, so Li Huaide played him the cards of a work correction team and a propaganda team.

By the time he wants to win support from above and outside the factory, Li Huaide's influence can already beat him for three rounds.

In terms of work ability, Li Huaide may not be ranked high in the steel rolling mill, but if it is better than eating and drinking! ! !

Grandma! Can Li Huaide be compared with him? ! ——

"what happened?"

When Li Xuewu took Li Xue into the courtyard, the old lady was coaxing Li Shu to stand and play in the courtyard.

"ah!"

Li Shu was wearing blue cloth shoes. When she heard the sound of "didi", she knew that Ba Ba was back, so she ran two steps towards the door, ready for a hug.

But he didn't expect that Bad Auntie would be followed into the hospital by Baba. She yelled and ran back.

Seeing her like this, Li Xue chased after her with a smile, and even deliberately frightened Li Shu.

After Li Shu threw herself into the old lady's arms, she was spanked by the bad aunt who caught up with her.

"It's okay, she just happened to catch up with me after getting off work, so she followed me."

Li Xuewu explained with a smile, and then looked at Gu Ning who was standing in the porch. Gu Ning also saw Li Xue, smiled and waved.

Li Xue called her sister-in-law and entered the back room with a smile.

Li Xuewu picked up his daughter, carried the bag in his hand, and discussed with the old lady: "Mistress, we won't go back to the compound this week, is that okay?"

After speaking, he looked at the clothes the old lady had prepared and suggested, "Maybe I'll take you back later, and I'll pick you back up on Monday."

The old lady frowned slightly and asked, "What happened?"

As soon as Li Xuewu entered the hospital, she noticed something was wrong.

Not only did Li Xuewu's clothes change, but Li Xue's coming was also a factor, mainly Li Xuewu's mood.

It was possible that outsiders wouldn't be able to tell, but her grandson had grown up with her and Qianer. As soon as Li Xuewu opened his mouth to speak, she knew something was wrong.

Li Xuewu was very honest. There was nothing to hide this kind of thing from his family. He explained it while entering the house with the old lady.

"This...is there such a change?"

Hearing Li Xuewu's explanation, everyone in the family was surprised. Gu Ning looked at Li Xuewu with big eyes and disbelief, while Gu Yan at home smiled and congratulated Li Xuewu for returning to the melting pot.

Qin Jingru didn't understand what was going on, but she understood. Maybe Li Xuewu had made progress again?

The only person here who is worried about Li Xuewu is the old lady. In her view, as long as one is in the military, there is a risk of sacrifice.

At least it's more dangerous than being a police officer.

The old lady didn't quite understand what Li Xuewu said about the deputy commander and the difference between being responsible for the city's security work. She frowned, but she didn't express her worries.

Li Xuewu handed Li Shu over to Gu Yan, who came to pick her up. She got along well with her uncle, because he would give her whatever she wanted, but sometimes he would make her cry.

After unbuttoning his shirt, Li Xuewu took the old lady's hand and explained his current work to the old lady from the perspective of personal safety.

The old lady spoke only when Li Xuewu promised that even if he meant it, he would still be in the command post, not on the front line.

Considering the character of her second grandson and his current job, the old lady did not say anything discouraging. She just told Li Xuewu to pay attention to safety and work hard.

When Li Xuewu offered to send her home to rest for a few days, the old lady waved her hand and refused.

The second grandson needs to be trained for a month and will be gone for a week. How can she stay here with peace of mind.

Not to mention that Gu Ning was pregnant, even Li Shu couldn't worry about it, so she rejected Li Xuewu's proposal to go home.

Gu Ning tried to persuade her, saying that it would be okay if she took Li Shu with her, but the old lady refused. She said that she used to go back once a week and nothing happened, so she would go back when she had time.

As he spoke, he got up and went into the room to change clothes, which made Gu Ning look at Li Xuewu with some embarrassment.

Li Xuewu grabbed Gu Ning's hand, gave her a comforting look, looked at Gu Yan who was holding Li Shu and asked: "Are you confident about the start of school?"

"No, I'm even afraid that the school will be pornographic~"

Gu Yan hugged Li Shu high up in a very rude manner, making Li Shu giggle and then threatened Li Shu to throw her into the pond to feed the fish.

Li Shu was familiar with her uncle and was not afraid of him at all. She grabbed Gu Yan's collar with her little hands and pointed to the sky. She was still taller.

Seeing that nothing happened, Qin Jingru looked at Li Xuewu and asked, "Then... shall I go cook?"

"good"

Li Xuewu glanced at Li Xue and said with a smile: "Will you stay here at night?"

"No, I still have something to do when I go back."

Li Xue is an older girl, and she can still see her naughty side when teasing Li Shu, but outside, even at her second brother's house, she behaves very quietly and maturely.

"Then after you finish eating, I'll see you off."

Li Xuewu nodded, let go of Gu Ning's hand, stood up, and said to Gu Yan: "If you don't return to the army, then help me take care of the house and give you a job as the security captain."

Gu Yan curled his lips and asked, "Is there any salary?"

"Yes, there must be"

Li Xuewu said with a wicked smile: "I have always had the final say on important matters like this in our family."

After saying that, he gestured to the sofa and added: "But I can only promise to have a salary. Your sister will be responsible for the small things of salary payment."

Gu Yan held up Li Shu, looked at Li Xuewu, then at his sister, then looked helplessly to Li Xuewu upstairs and said, "If you don't want to give it, just say so."

"Why!"

Li Xuewu stood on the stairs and nodded at his brother-in-law, reminding him: "Don't talk nonsense, your words have some meaning~"

"Brother-in-law, it's a shame that you become a police officer!"

Gu Yan gritted his teeth and said, "You should go to the Investigation Department~"

"Don't say that. How can the Investigation Department be as comfortable as it is now?"

After the words were heard, the person had already gone upstairs to take a shower and change clothes.

Gu Yan twitched the corner of his mouth and said to Li Shu, "You said your father is bad!"

Li Shu stared, climbed up on her dangling calf, pointed her little finger at it, and shouted, "Let him lift it up to the big devil!"

Because of Li Xuewu's sudden decision, he had more time to prepare dinner.

Originally, Qin Jingru only prepared for herself and Gu Yan, but now that everyone in the family is here, Li Xue is also added, which is a rare lively event.

Fortunately, vegetables are plentiful at this time, and the ones in the yard are all gone, so it is convenient to prepare more vegetables.

This is not the first time for Li Xue to eat here, but the living environment here for the second brother is much better than that at home, so he is inevitably a little cautious.

Maybe it's because he's grown up, or maybe it's due to environmental factors. Like Gu Ning, he doesn't talk much.

The old lady was looking after Li Shu at the dinner table. She had to be served by two people alone, and Gu Ning also sat aside to help.

Li Xuewu talked to Gu Yan about things in the army for a while, looked at Qin Jingru who was drinking soda, and asked with a smile: "How is the matter between you and Jiankun?"

"Pfft~cough~"

Qin Jingru was startled by Li Xuewu's words and almost choked on the soda in her mouth. She coughed twice before suppressing it.

Then she found that several people at the table were looking at her with smiles, feeling a little embarrassed again.

No matter how naive you are, you still have a shy side when facing this kind of thing.

If not, then you will be in big trouble, either a silly girl or an experienced "girl" - if you can also call it a girl...

"I...my sister said we should go home and discuss it~"

Qin Jingru stopped drinking soda. She lowered her head and looked at her rice bowl, replying to Li Xuewu's words.

Li Xuewu was not at home last weekend. She and Han Jiankun went to the compound for a visit but didn't see her. She only found out about it after her mother and the old lady mentioned it.

Qin Jingru rarely gave her elder sister some face, and she did not spend time with Li Xuewu in vain. To say that she was knowledgeable was a bit too much, but to say that she knew more about human nature and sophistication was true.

Do you think she is stupid?

But she is either really stupid, or she is an ignorant Biao who came out of a closed environment in the countryside, and is not the same as the Biao of Lao Biaozi.

Lao Biaozi is a reckless Biao who knows that there are tigers in the mountains and prefers to go to the tiger mountains. She is a greedy Biao who is fearless and ignorant.

After seeing the big world, having hard-earned money, experiencing life in the city, having your feet on the ground, your IQ has once again taken over the high ground, and people will understand things.

They entered the hospital together with Han Jiankun, carrying a few seasonal gifts in their hands. They greeted everyone they saw and introduced Han Jiankun a little shyly. The two of them really made everyone in the hospital envious.

Why don't you envy her? Afterwards, she heard from Mrs. Jia Zhang that her family Qin Jingru had found a driver for a minibus, and that driver was Li Xuewu's driver. What else could be said.

People here in the courtyard have seen Shaqi Zhi many times, and Han Jiankun basically didn't get out of the car, so he saw it that day.

Jia Zhang's family didn't have any relatives to brag about, so this time she could finally feel proud. Being Li Xuewu's driver, she felt at ease and could boast happily.
