Daily life in the courtyard

Chapter 230 Price
In the second half of 1979.

A scandal did not spread, but it attracted attention in a small circle.

A holiday sensation.

The scandal of the Ye family.

Tampering with the credit, impersonating.

But the good thing is that mistakes can be corrected. At the last moment, Ye Guohua upheld his conscience, and despite the chances of ruining his reputation, he returned the credit that belonged to Xiao Chunsheng to him without hesitation.

Of course, this is just Ye Guohua's wishful thinking.

Afterwards, Ye's father's operation was similar to what Ye's mother did to Ye Fang and Chen Hongjun.

Toss and turn in a small limit.

A small part of Xiao Chunsheng's credit was forcibly shared, and Ye Guohua became one of the two heroes.

From a cowardly drag to the second hero, Wei Pingan called this wave of operations the thickest-skinned.

Ye Guohua actually accepted it happily.

In fact, many people in the capital have talked in private.

Wei Pingan is very familiar with many people in the army compound.

Ai Muzhen and other mecha squads also retreated from the front line after completing the deterrent mission.

The two also communicated about this matter.

After all, when Ye Guohua confessed Xiao Chunsheng's military exploits, he had already been given speeches and publicity as a hero for several months.

The benefits he deserved, including promotion and salary increase, have already been loaded on his body.

After receiving benefits, I remembered that my conscience had been condemned.

Whether it's for the purpose of whitewashing, or if I really feel that I owe my brother, when I say it, it won't help.

But Wei Pingan knows more about the big picture.

In a few months, we will face the sixth major disarmament.

This wave of operations by Father Ye will obviously be regarded as an early bird, sent away in a wave, and replaced with regular clothes.

And the impact of Ye Guohua's complicated thoughts also doomed his military career to come to an end.

Even if you don't see all the success in business when you were a child, you can only take off your military uniform and return to society.

Because the iron-blooded military melting pot cannot tolerate any flaws.

Such a complex Ye Guohua is not the kind of selfless and dedicated soldier who defends the country and defends the country that the people need.

In early November.

He Hongling walked out of the station in uniform.

Wei Pingan waited at the station entrance early to meet her.

The two had a lot of phone conversations.

But actual face-to-face contact is rare.

He Hongling was a little embarrassed, but her character was not twitchy.

As a big girl in the capital, her daring character made her endure her shyness, threw herself into Wei Ping'an's arms in public, and gave him a big hug.

After returning from this trip, He Hongling did not intend to go home to reunite with her mother.

She came with a different mind.

The facts also confirmed her conjecture.

Wei Pingan had already prepared a place for her in Dongsi Santiao Hutong.

A quiet and elegant small courtyard.

"It feels like you're not interested in living in a building. It's always been a courtyard house, a courtyard house."

"Well, the courtyard house is more down-to-earth. After living in the building for a long time, it feels depressing."

He Hongling forced herself to visit this small courtyard.

Thinking, maybe this is the habitat where I will return to Beijing in the future.

It is not unacceptable to occasionally be a canary in this yard.

After all, most of the time, I am still chasing my favorite career. In comparison, it is already broader and more free-wheeling than the few roads set in front of me at the beginning.

"Xiao Chunsheng should recover soon."

"He, can he stand up?"

Speaking of Xiao Chunsheng, He Hongling subconsciously showed a strong interest.

After all, loving someone, or first love, is the most difficult thing to let go.

"Well, I was a little stimulated some time ago, so I have hope of recovery."

"I received it..."

"You want to ask, what stimulated Xiao Chunsheng, right?"

Wei Pingan smiled, and said indifferently: "Let me take you to the kitchen and tell you while cooking."

As soon as you enter the small courtyard, the west wing room is changed into a kitchen and dining room layout.

Wei Pingan began to cut vegetables on the chopping board, and He Hongling watched his skilled knife skills. He couldn't even imagine that this was a big man with astonishing strength and status.

It feels surprisingly approachable.

Not so unattainable, but also quite down-to-earth.

"During the time when Xiao Chunsheng came back, Tong Xiaomei was always by his side, and it was also because of an instrument. Tong Xiaomei tried her best to protect that instrument. Seeing being bullied by a group of hooligans, Xiao Chunsheng stood up and took a few steps. It's kind of a miracle..."

"the two of them……"

"Actually, you and Xiao Chunsheng had a misunderstanding from the very beginning."

He Hongling didn't answer, and leaned against the sliding door next to the kitchen, waiting for Wei Pingan to continue.

"At the beginning, Ye Guohua fell in love with you on the bus, and told Xiao Chunsheng to draw your portrait to help him get to know you. What Xiao Chunsheng really liked was the girl who secretly climbed the wall to read books with him .”

"I heard Xiao Chunsheng tell them before."

"That girl is Tong Xiaomei. When Xiao Chunsheng didn't know about it, Tong Xiaomei knew about it."

"It turned out to be Tong Xiaomei?"

"So, Tong Xiaomei gave you the place in the art troupe. She said it was to fulfill herself. It was not all a lie. At that time, everyone except Xiao Chunsheng knew that he could not be a soldier. You chose to be a soldier. Tong Xiaomei chose Stay and accompany Xiao Chunsheng silently."

Wei Ping'an turned his back to the door and did not look at He Hongling's expression.

Even, he was in a calm mood, and he didn't turn on the space projection function to secretly observe her expression.

Well, after all, the body has been scanned many times.

Even with my eyes closed, I knew how many moles there were on her buttocks.

He Hongling was silent, her thoughts were racing, she seemed to have begun to follow Wei Ping'an's words, and began to re-recognize and re-examine her feelings towards Xiao Chunsheng.

"The second time is when Xiao Chunsheng was injured."

Wei Pingan put the meat strips into the pot and stir-fried them.

While the flames were churning, Wei Pingan continued to calmly say: "You want Xiao Chunsheng to stay in the army because you want Xiao Chunsheng to change and adapt to you. Strictly speaking, you don't want to step out of your comfort zone for Xiao Chunsheng. But Tong Xiaomei chose to retire and change careers without hesitation, to accompany Xiao Chunsheng back..."

"Actually, the decisions you made about Xiao Chunsheng at the two important moments must have shown who is your true love for Xiao Chunsheng."

Put the chili into the pot, Wei Pingan continued to stir-fry, and even flipped the spoon a few times casually.

The spicy smell rose into the nose, and there were a few suppressed coughing sounds from behind.

"I like spicy food, but I also choke on the smell of cooking and cough. Sometimes what you think is the truth is not the truest thought in your heart. Each of us may be deceived by the brain..."

He Hongling did not reply.

Wei Pingan put the plate of chili fried meat aside.

Started to make a tomato scrambled eggs.

These two dishes are He Hongling's favorite.

This is not what Wei Pingan did deliberately, but the dish recommendation given by the Red Empress Zhinao after analyzing He Hongling's character.

It perfectly verified the appalling accuracy of the AI ​​Red Queen.

"How do you know I like to eat these two dishes?"

He Hongling leaned over.

"I just think that a girl like you should like these two dishes. Just like I would like a girl like you. It's just a feeling, there is no reason."

"Yes, there are so many reasons."

He Hongling hugged Wei Pingan from behind.

"Thank you."

Wei Pingan patted the back of He Hongling's hands crossed in front of his chest, and said with a smile:
"I've said it all, you're welcome. I also belong to the category with ulterior motives."

"Your ulterior motives make me feel comfortable. Very comfortable."

"It's a bit abnormal for you to come back this time. Why, are you planning to repay your kindness with your body?"

"I'm here, do you want it?"

"No. Well, at least not yet."

"why?"

No reason.

Maybe it's because you are wearing this military uniform that represents dignity and majesty.

Just don't want to desecrate it.

"There will be a major disarmament at the end of the year, and your art troupe may be eliminated as a whole."

"what?"

"At that point you have two choices."

"Is there no way to save it?"

"Do you want to stay in the army, or I will send you to Paris to study professionally..."

He Hongling remained silent, and turned her head to put her face on Wei Ping'an's back.

"Are you really willing to let me go to Paris?"

"I can't tie you to my waistband. Besides, Paris is not far away. I can fly over to see you at any time. You didn't stay there all your life. After you came back from your studies, you went to the Conservatory of Music to inherit your father's work." , is also a good choice, and it is also a good story for a daughter to inherit her father's career, isn't it?"

"If I choose to stay in the army, do you plan to never touch me?"

"Then will you choose to stay in the army? Although the art troupe will be abolished, there will definitely be a few places for transfer."

"Can you buy a small courtyard like this in Paris?"

Wei Pingan shook his head and added some water to the pot.

"That can't be done. Paris is not as safe as our country. Living in an apartment is safer than living in a manor."

"You are so beautiful, I don't worry about living in the manor alone."

He Hongling smiled.

"Then I'll hurry back after listening to the concert. At least I have to be worthy of the leader and stand on my last post."

In fact, He Hongling had heard the wind before coming here.

The news that the art troupe will be cancelled has spread internally.

When she came back this time, firstly, she came to listen to the concert, and secondly, she originally planned to consult Wei Pingan, hoping that he could clear up the relationship for her so that she could continue to stay in the military art troupe.

However, because Wei Pingan gave two choices, and the previous conversation allowed He Hongling to really touch her heart, and faced up to her false feelings for Xiao Chunsheng.

So, she made a decision that she couldn't even believe herself.

"When I leave the army, I'll go to Paris."

"Okay. I'll go through the formalities for you in advance. When you come back, you can go anytime."

"While studying in Paris, can I have children?"

"As long as you want, you can."

"In the future, when I come back to work, will I live in this small courtyard?"

"If you want a bigger one, that's fine too. If you like it, it's for you to live in."

"I want to be here."

He Hongling is tall, her teeth can bite Wei Ping'an's shoulder.

"Thank you, Brother Wei."

"The meal is ready, let's eat first. After dinner, you go to bed early, and I will pick you up tomorrow afternoon to listen to the symphony."

"I don't sleep in a military uniform, you can stay at night."

"Don't worry, I'll wait for you to come back."

Wei Pingan declined with a smile.

But that night, although Wei Pingan didn't touch He Hongling, he still accompanied her to sleep before getting up and walking out of the courtyard.

Well, it's normal for men and women to kiss and hug each other.

Wei Pingan couldn't bear it, so he went back to Gulou West Street overnight, and got into Yu Li and Yu Haitang's house.

The place where these two sisters are is the easiest place to eliminate Wei Pingan's fragrant emotions.

National Day eve.

Father Ye took off his military uniform.

Mother Ye also failed to escape the fate of retiring to the second line.

Ye Guohua retreated when he knew the difficulty. After learning about his father and mother, although he didn't make it clear, he also felt it.

I'm afraid it's not because I was implicated by my earlier affairs.

If not, as the parents of a combat hero, how could they be among the first batch of demobilized cadres?

Ye Guohua lost the blessing of his parents, and he also knew that his situation in the army was not as smooth as it seemed on the surface.

I went back to the capital.

I saw childhood playmates, some achieved wealth appreciation through small businesses, and some, like Chen Hongjun, were admitted to the customs and became a rising star.

Ye Guohua felt a little at ease in his heart.

At least he found a new way of life for himself.

Relying on some of the previous family relationships, and taking advantage of the aftermath of the cold tea, maybe something can be done again.

Therefore, he didn't delay any longer, and when he returned to the army, he took the initiative to apply for a job change.

It's better to ask for it than to be fired, and it can be regarded as retaining the last bit of face.

On the other hand, Ye Guohua is destined not to give up on He Hongling.

He Hongling's art troupe will be abolished as a whole. This news is considered solid at his level.

Therefore, he also has the idea of ​​returning to the capital and looking for opportunities to pursue with He Hongling.

However, he didn't know what he was doing. It wasn't that He Hongling didn't know the past.

The reason for not pointing it out is just as a spare tire road.

Now with Wei Pingan, Ye Guohua, the spare tire, has long been abandoned by her.

There is no need to be perfunctory.

What's more, some of Ye Guohua's actions really made He Hongling uncomfortable.

Made her sick countless times.

Compared with Xiao Chunsheng's grandeur and Wei Ping'an's delicacy and consideration, Ye Guohua has nothing but selfishness and shady methods.

Ye Guohua: ...

……

Xiao Chunsheng stood up.

All of them are very happy.

Tong Xiaomei also naturally became Xiao Chunsheng's girlfriend.

The two love each other, sweet and warm.

Xiao Yanqiu proposed a party to celebrate, and Qi Tian and Xiao Chunsheng unanimously proposed to invite Wei Pingan.

After all, Wei Ping'an was the one who cared and encouraged the Xiao family from the beginning to the end.

Wei Pingan also gave Tong Xiaomei a good recommendation in terms of the import channel of the equipment and the treatment of traditional Chinese medicine.

The only book on acupuncture and moxibustion was sent by Wei Pingan to Wei Xiaomi.
