Chapter 1821 Qingxue Returns Home 1
This year was the most turbulent year since the founding of the People's Republic of China, no less than the collapse of the sky and the crack of the earth.
The bad news came out before the Spring Festival.
Lu Jiang was in the capital at that time. Feng Qingxue didn't see him for two or three months. Occasionally, she could hear his tired voice on the phone, and he hung up after a few words.
Feng Qingxue knew that some things could be saved, and some things could not be saved. She could only guard the rear and comfort her family.
For the sake of family and country, Lu Jiang moved forward with difficulty and did not look back.
Most of the news of Wanglou Brigade came from the radio and newspapers. The more detailed part was brought by Zhao Anbang to the two old men, Lu's father and Zhou Fengchu, one by one, one after another, without giving people time to react.
Perhaps it was because the emperor was far away, the people of Wanglou Brigade felt confused and uneasy because of the collapse of the sky and the crack of the earth, and they were depressed, but they needed to continue their lives, and they quickly sorted out their grief and returned to peace.
The weather did not have much impact on Wanglou Brigade, and there was another bumper harvest in the summer.
Thanks to the use of fertilizers, the per-acre yield of wheat doubled directly. The full-grained wheat was moved into the granary, and the villagers were so happy that they didn't have to go hungry this year. It was great!
Father Lu and Xi Bao were very worried about Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue who were on the front line of disaster relief at this moment.
When they paid their public grain, Lu Jiang, who was in the capital, ignored all opinions and used various investigation data to explain the impending crisis. He withstood the pressure from the outside world and arranged for the local garrison to focus on prevention and evacuate most of the people in time, saving the country from huge losses and countless lives. Feng Qingxue led the medical team to go deep into the front line to save the dying and the wounded.
When it comes to Lu Feng and his wife, everyone gives a thumbs up.
Lu Jiang was promoted to the deputy commander of the capital military region at the beginning of the year as expected by everyone. After this incident, he was directly promoted from deputy commander to full commander. Now he holds an important position, assists the chief, and presides over the work in the army.
After the sadness, the conspiracy was completely crushed, and the whole country was jubilant.
Wang Zhengguo directly arranged for people to slaughter pigs and sheep and cook a big pot of food to celebrate.
The old men and women who were sent to Wanglou Brigade all put on their neatest and best clothes and walked out of the mud houses that had trapped them for many years. Their old faces were blooming with yellow flowers, their eyes were bright, and they were full of energy, as if they were many years younger.
"Where is Xibao? Old Lu, why didn't you see Xibao in such a scene?" It was Lu Erxiong, who was not yet nine years old, who was having fun everywhere.
Hearing Zhou Fengchu's question, Lu's father, who brought Dundun and Zhuangzhuang to watch the fun, shook his head at him. This precious grandson was sad at home. After hearing the bad news, he wanted to go to Beijing, but the situation was chaotic and the capital was heavily guarded. There was almost a guard every five steps and a sentry every ten steps. Outsiders could not enter Beijing at all. Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue were in the vortex. Lu's father was worried that someone would counterattack, so Xibao failed to go.
Zhou Fengchu expressed his understanding, turned back to the Lu family courtyard, pushed open the door of the east wing with one hand, and saw Xibao sitting on the bed, with many letters and photos of different ages in front of him, and a photo of him in the capital when he was young in his hand, with a black armband on his arm.
Walking over and touching his head, Zhou Fengchu sat on the edge of the bed and said nothing.
Xibao raised his head, revealing red eyes, "You say, why do people have to die? Isn't it good to live for a long time? Once you die, you will never see you again, hear your voice, or see you again."
Zhou Fengchu patted his shoulder, "Silly child, life and death are inevitable laws, and we can't change them."
