Chapter 765 October 1st, Sunny

Chang Yuanchao and Zhou Li flew to Beijing in the evening of September 30.

However, the plane landed at the Capital International Airport this time.

This place is much larger than Nanyuan, and the old couple took a long time to find it.

Chang Haonan and Zhu Yadan were still waiting outside.

Originally, the former should try to avoid appearing in large airports where there are many people.

At least he should wait in the car.

However, because the National Day ceremony was held the next day, the entire Beijing city entered a strict security mode.

Even at the Capital Airport, there were few people at all, which was completely different from the surging crowds in the past.

And there were several times more guards on duty than usual.

The sense of security was full.

"Xiaonan."

After seeing Chang Haonan waiting outside, Chang Yuanchao waved to him and quickened his pace.

"Uncle and aunt, hello."

Zhu Yadan greeted them briefly as usual, took the luggage from the two, and then handed it to a colleague in another car-

After resolving the Allied Operation in a way that no one expected, Chang Haonan's security was upgraded to a higher level.

Zhu Yadan, who originally belonged to the special service department, also benefited from it and was transferred to the Ninth Security Bureau on the spot, and his military rank was also upgraded by one level.

He is now the team leader responsible for Chang Haonan's safety.

Including Chang Haonan's car, according to Zhang Lao's previous intention, it has increased from a single Crown to a random combination of several cars and license plates.

For example, today, because I need to pick someone up, I changed to a Ford MPV that was not very common in 1999.

And a Santana as a security car.

After several people got on the car, Chang Yuanchao scratched his head awkwardly and said:

"There were only two of us on the plane just now. It felt like a chartered plane... I didn't know where we went after we got out."

"At first I thought it was the airport last time, but I almost got lost in it after going around in circles..."

Chang Haonan smiled:

"It's normal. Tomorrow is the celebration. Starting from noon today, the entrances to the city and the main roads within the city have gradually begun to be controlled. You can't get through without a pass."

"Nanyuan Airport, because it is one of the take-off airports for tomorrow's military parade air formation, it has been closed to civil aviation since a few days ago."

He leaned over and fastened the seat belt for his father.

People in the 1990s generally don't have this awareness, and Chang Yuanchao has been a policeman for many years. In order to get on and off the car quickly, he has no habit of fastening his seat belt.

"By the way, Xiaonan, has Jiayao contacted you recently?"

Zhou Li, who was sitting in the back seat, asked immediately.

Chang Jiayao was selected to participate in the military parade, including going to Tianjin for training. She had naturally told the old couple a long time ago.

However, after the training began, it was not so convenient to make phone calls.

Mobile phones were definitely not allowed in the barracks, and the limited number of landlines could only be used at night. For female soldiers, the time before lights out was already very tight, so they rarely lined up.

"I went to Tianjin to see her two days ago. She asked me to bring you good news, saying that she could go home in mid-October."

"Shouldn't they be in class in mid-October?"

"They may have extra holidays for the parade students, after all, they are training throughout the summer vacation. I didn't ask in detail..."

"..."

Due to road control, there were not many cars along the way.

Chang Haonan had never seen such a smooth road in Beijing in his two lives.

So when everyone returned home, it was not even dinner time.

Zhou Li was thinking about cooking, but was stopped by Chang Haonan:

"I've already ordered it from Jingcheng Hotel. It will be delivered soon. You don't need to do it tonight..."

With the status of Jingcheng Hotel, it is natural to get a pass to deliver meals as usual on days when martial law is not completely enforced.

"Look at you, kid, why are you wasting so much..."

Zhou Li complained, but the expression on her face that was about to bloom with joy showed that she was still happy.

Chang Yuanchao, who was fiddling with the TV next to him, did not give his wife face at all and said to Chang Haonan:

"Look at your mother, her mouth is almost grinning to the sky, and she has to pretend to be reluctant..."

Chang Haonan was about to say something when he saw Zhou Li's sharp eyes on the other side.

Weak, pitiful, and helpless.jpg

Chang Yuanchao also understood the TV at this time. After noticing Zhou Li's reaction, he also shrank his neck, then sat on the sofa with the remote control and stopped talking.

Soon, the sound of the Beijing weather forecast came from the TV.

"Your father has been watching the weather forecast every day since last week. Just now on the plane, he saw a cloud in the distance and kept talking to me, saying that he was worried that it would rain tomorrow..."

Zhou Li simply packed her luggage and said it without being polite, but she still sat on the sofa next to Chang Yuanchao.

"What do you know? The weather forecast these days is not accurate at all. It changes every day. Last week, it said it would be sunny today, but before I got on the plane in the morning, it said it was raining in Beijing, and it was delayed for several hours..."

Chang Yuanchao said and adjusted his posture:

"If the weather is bad tomorrow, you won't be able to see Jiayao..."

"You can't see her even if the weather is good. Jiayao is on the plane..."

Chang Haonan felt a little overwhelmed by the dog food he had been fed, and quickly interrupted the old couple's bickering and showing off their love:

"Dad, don't worry, the weather forecast will change these days to create a good weather window for the National Day."

Chang Yuanchao suddenly calmed down and turned to look at Chang Haonan.

After a long while, he asked doubtfully:

"Can our country control the weather now?"

This sentence almost made Chang Haonan choke:

"That's not what I mean..."

"If you find that it may rain in the next few days, use artificial rainfall to eliminate the cumulonimbus clouds before National Day, so that the weather conditions on National Day will be relatively better. Even if it is not sunny, the clouds will not be too low."

As if to confirm Chang Haonan's statement, the weather forecast also started at this time.

Beijing, sunny, southwest wind level 1, temperature 26-11℃...

...

The next day, October 1.

It was indeed a sunny day.

Chang Yuanchao and Zhou Li got up before dawn in the morning.

Or to be more precise, the old couple hardly slept last night.

In fact, even Chang Haonan tossed and turned until very late, and he didn't know how he fell asleep...

When Chang Haonan finished washing and walked out of the bedroom, he saw the two of them standing in the living room, and they had even changed their clothes.

Zhou Li wore a formal dress that she rarely wore before, and Chang Yuanchao...

changed into a police uniform.

At this time in 1999, the police uniform was still green, similar to the army uniform.

It's a pity that there is no corresponding dress for the 95-style police uniform, so he had to wear a spring and autumn uniform with a relatively stiff fabric.

"Dad, it's okay... and you brought the uniform here specially."

Chang Haonan went downstairs while looking at Chang Yuanchao who was bowing his head to organize something.

"More than a uniform... your dad brought all his life and property this time."

Zhou Li was helping Chang Yuanchao tie his tie at this time, raised her head and smiled at Chang Haonan, then patted Chang Yuanchao on the shoulder, motioning him to turn around.

At this time, Chang Haonan discovered that his father had specially hung several medals on his chest.

From the second-class and third-class merits he received in the army to the third-class model of the public security system after he became a police officer, it can be regarded as a summary of Comrade Chang's life.

"Xiaonan, I remember that you should have won many medals, right? Do you want to wear them too?"

Chang Yuanchao buttoned up his clothes, stood upright in the middle of the living room, and asked Chang Haonan.

"Mine..."

Chang Haonan thought for a while.

One bad thing about the awarding of awards in China is that people like to receive ribbons, especially for high-level honors, and the ribbons are generally very long, which are jokingly called "athlete medals", which are very inconvenient to wear.

Moreover, he has several medals in his hands that cannot be made public for the time being.

"Forget it."

Chang Haonan shook his head:

"I have too many medals here, and I can't decide which one to wear or not at the moment. I might as well put them all at home. Anyway, the invitation letter didn't say that I must wear them..."

Chang Yuanchao's face froze, and he always felt that his son's words revealed a bit of strange boasting...

The second and third class merit medals on his chest suddenly felt dull.

"Ahem..."

He coughed twice:

"Then...shall we leave now?"

"There's no rush."

Chang Haonan shook his head, and also came to the living room, and began to tie his tie in front of the mirror:

"A car will come to pick us up later..."
