Chapter 987 Honor, Shock
$985
October 1, 1984.
The sky was clear, the air was clear, and the breeze was gentle.
The white clouds in the sky were arranged in clusters like cotton. The blue sky not only pleased people's eyes, but also made people feel refreshed.
Today is the day of the military parade, and everyone has been looking forward to it for a long time.
"Is everyone ready? We are going to leave!" He Tiantian smiled. Today, our whole family will go to watch the military parade together, and even the three children will go with us, so that they can also experience it.
"Okay, let's go." Grandma Qi San smiled. She was a little excited. She had never watched a military parade before!
Huo Yingjie carefully checked it and nodded, "Okay, we can go."
"Okay, let's go." He Tiantian said, and told the driver to drive.
Along the way, everyone was very excited and kept talking.
Because they got the admission tickets in advance, they were arranged to the designated place after layers of inspection.
As for Old Man Qi, he was directly welcomed to the back and went to the Tiananmen Tower with Old Man Huo later.
That is the supreme honor.
However, this is the honor that Grandpa Qi earned with his life and blood, and it is a well-deserved honor.
In He Tiantian's nanny bag, there is a big thermos, which contains water, paper, diapers, snacks, etc.
After arranging everyone, He Tiantian and Huo Yingjie sat down to rest.
He Tiantian likes to participate in group activities with everyone, but every time they come out, they are in the middle position of having old people above and young people below, and they have to do everything themselves, which is very tiring.
However, He Tiantian and Huo Yingjie like this kind of fatigue. Anyway, they are young and just need to rest for a while.
Secretary Qi and Qi Rongjun are very excited. This time they can sit here, and they are also honored by Grandpa Qi and the Huo family!
"Dad, I didn't expect that we would have such an honor to come here to watch the ceremony." Qi Rongjun is a veteran and is now the director of the police station in Taoyuan County. Life may have worn away some of his edges and corners, but he still has the passion of a soldier in his bones.
Today's scenes and pictures have rekindled the passion deep in his heart.
"Yes, it's the right time to come here this time." Secretary Qi smiled, "I can also talk to the people in the village when I go back. We will take more photos and bring them back later. By the way, is your camera ready?"
"It's ready. I also brought a lot of film, just to take more photos." Qi Rongjun said that he would show the photos he took this time to everyone in the village and the unit, and send some to his former comrades who had a good relationship with him.
Now transportation is inconvenient, and everyone has a job. Not everyone has the opportunity and time to come and watch the military parade.
After the big leader's speech, the military parade officially began.
The squares on the stage walked past the crowd in neat steps; tanks, military weapons and armored vehicles rumbled past.
He Tiantian was as excited as everyone else, cheering and excited.
Although Huo Yingjie was cheering, it was superficial. He was very calm inside.
At this time, Huo Yingjie carefully stared at the tanks and weapons not far away, thinking that those weapons would use the materials he had researched, and then he calculated in his mind what kind of tasks and projects he would receive in the near future.
When people around cheered, they would keep pressing the shutter to capture this shocking scene.
He Tiantian was excited. Although the military parade was not as advanced as what she had seen on TV in her previous life, she could feel the enthusiasm, determination, and fearlessness of the soldiers.
Watching on TV is never as shocking as being there in person.
At this moment, she felt the honor and responsibility of the country.
She would work hard and be a valuable screw for socialist construction.
The children, wearing sun hats, were also cheering.
Soon, the military parade was over, making everyone feel that time passed quickly, as if it was just a blink of an eye.
After that, they came out in an orderly manner. The people watching the ceremony felt sad and really wished they could keep watching.
"Tiantian, it's our turn to come out!" Huo Yingjie said softly to He Tiantian's ear when he saw He Tiantian was stunned.
This woman started to think too much in her mind again.
He Tiantian recovered and said with a smile: "Haha, it's over."
"Yes, it's over." Huo Yingjie smiled, "There will be many more military parades in the future. I will take you to see them, okay?"
"Yeah!" He Tiantian nodded. In her simple heart, she always believed that as long as the country is strong and there is no war, the people can live and work in peace.
Although He Tiantian is not a big politician, from the news in later generations, some countries in the Middle East colluded with foreign forces in order to overthrow the domestic regime. Maybe their starting point is good, wanting to build a so-called free and democratic society similar to Western countries, but they don't want to think about the different national conditions, different beliefs, and many other differences. They want to copy the political system of other countries, which is undoubtedly a foolish dream.
Afterwards, domestic forces resisted, foreign forces suppressed, and the people were trapped in the war and lived in poverty.
Those idealists who accepted new ideas were generally highly educated or wealthy. They left the war zone through immigration, but those ordinary people lost their families, friends, and even their lives in the war.
The country is prosperous, and the people suffer, but at least they can live a stable life.
The people are suffering the most. In the war, they can't even save their lives. What else can they expect?
All we ordinary people want is a peaceful life.
The couple led everyone out in a line.
Everyone was talking about the military parade just now and expressing their shock.
"Haha, this time I really came at the right time." Qi Rongjun said, "I took a lot of photos. I will develop them later and send them to my comrades, so that they can also feel the strength of the motherland."
"Okay, Brother Qi, give me the film later and I will find someone to develop the photos for you." He Tiantian smiled, "I promise you can get the photos tomorrow and mail them out."
"Then please Tiantian." Qi Rongjun smiled, it would be better to mail them from Yanjing.
At noon, Huo Yingjie took everyone to the restaurant for dinner. They had reserved seats in advance and were taken directly to the big box upstairs.
Today, everyone was in a high mood, and everyone cheered and applauded vigorously, which consumed a lot of energy, so everyone ate more lunch than usual.
As for Old Man Qi, he did not come back and went to the state banquet with Old Man Huo.
This is the treatment that Old Man Qi deserves.
Although he has lived in seclusion for so many years, his contributions and achievements cannot be denied.
