However, time is ruthless and they are all old.

There are not many friends left now.

"Brother Huo." Old Man Qi had tears in his eyes, "How are you?"

"Okay!" Mr. Huo said with a smile, "I'm in good health, and you look good too. Seeing you live a happy life in old age makes me feel relieved."

This good brother's wife and son have all gone, leaving him a lonely old man. Fortunately, some juniors in Qijia Village respect him, and old man Qi can now have a happy old age.

"Yes, the juniors are filial and living a good life now." Old Man Qi smiled and looked at Grandma Qi San who was chatting with Mrs. Huo. At least in the last stage of his life, he would have someone who knew and loved him by his side. With.

This is what he is most satisfied with.

Mr. Huo was an old man, so he naturally noticed it. He smiled meaningfully, but did not say anything. After all, at their age, various forms are no longer important. The most important thing is the attitude in the heart.

"That's good. It's rare for us brothers to meet each other this time. After the military parade, I'll call a few old guys and let's get together." Mr. Huo said, "They also talk about you often."

"Haha, I'm just a mediocre person, what's worth mentioning." Old Man Qi smiled, "Hey, it's just that we are old, and we were seriously injured in the war when we were young. It is estimated that even if those old guys are still alive, their bodies will be damaged. It’s not as good as usual.”

"Who says it's not the case!" Mr. Huo sighed, "Lao Li left last year, and Lao Liu is now paralyzed on the bed. Although the remaining few can still walk around, they are old and cannot travel easily."

Old Man Qi felt sad after hearing that all these familiar people were old.

"Time makes people grow old." Old Man Qi said, "In life, birth, old age, illness and death are human nature. Although it is regrettable, this is the rule. We will pass away sooner or later, and the younger generation is enough to support the sky. Compared with those who fought during the Anti-Japanese War For our comrades who died in the war, we are lucky to have survived until victory and liberation. We have witnessed the right and wrong after the founding of the People's Republic of China, and we have also witnessed the country's growing strength. All of this was the purpose of taking up the gun to fight. Even if we go underground in the future, we can still talk to our comrades who fought together that their blood was not in vain. "

Old Man Qi's words made Mr. Huo filled with emotion.

At the beginning, the technology was backward, and New China's victory was accumulated bit by bit with blood and heads.

Facing the enemy's strong ships, powerful guns and advanced weapons, our soldiers only have broken guns, weak bodies, and unswerving will to charge forward.

For victory, for liberation, and for the people to be the masters of the country, they sacrificed their precious lives.

However, they became a handful of loess buried in a foreign land.

May the loyal bones last forever, and the loyal soul return to its hometown in peace!

The two men thought of their former comrades, and tears shed from the corners of their eyes.

Others saw it and spoke softer.

This is respect for the deceased, and also care for the aging veterans who have served in the army for a lifetime.

After a while, Huo Zheqian said slowly: "Father, Uncle Qi, now that the country is prosperous, you can be happy. Let's not talk about these things and talk about some happy things."

Mr. Huo took the handkerchief handed over by his wife and wiped his tears, nodded and said: "Yes, the country is getting better and better, what do I have to regret? Brother Qi, we should laugh and call all the comrades who went to the battlefield. Let’s get together.”

After getting together this time, I probably won’t have another chance in the future.

Although Mr. Huo didn't say it, everyone could hear the implication.

"Okay, this is your home court, Brother Huo, you can make arrangements." Old Man Qi said with a slight smile. He had been hiding in Qijia Village. Although he was quiet, he was very lonely inside.

Fortunately, there are still juniors here, and she is here.

With so many people coming today, He Tiantian made a lot of dishes and arranged two large tables.

There are men at the table, drinking and talking; women at the table, eating food, drinking and gossiping.

Especially when it came to Qi Xiaoyan's participation in the party, Grandma Qi San was very interested and thought she must see it then.

There are many children, and the little ones are also very excited and playing in the yard.

There were so many adults around and there was no need to worry about the children.

It wasn't until nine o'clock in the evening that the song came to an end.

Mr. Huo, Mrs. Huo and others returned to the country's old residence.

Early the next morning, Mr. Tang came to see Mr. Huo.

"Why are you here so early in the morning?" Mr. Huo asked after washing up and boxing slowly in the yard while looking at the person coming.

At this time, Mr. Tang is also exercising and will not come over.

"Haha, I have nothing to do without going to the Three Treasures Palace. I have something to ask of you!" Mr. Tang said with a smile, as if the two brothers were in good company.

"I think you are a weasel paying New Year's greetings to the rooster, and you have no good intentions." Mr. Huo said, "If you have anything to say, tell me quickly. Seeing you smiling with a smile on your face makes me panic!"

"I heard from Tang Qian that Qi Zhengmin's grandmother is here. My boy likes Zhengmin. If someone's elders are here, I can't say nothing and pretend not to know. That's not etiquette." Mr. Tang said, "But you also know Yes, my mistress did something stupid before. Although the prodigal son has turned back, I am still worried that the woman is not satisfied, so I want to come to you for help and say a few good words to the mistress. If everything goes well, you can be a matchmaker. The marriage is settled for Xiaosi and Zhengmin.”

I knew this was the case!

Mr. Huo guessed this when he saw Mr. Tang approaching.

"Haha, I can see Xiaosi's change. It's just that I'm not suitable for being a matchmaker." Mr. Huo said, "Why don't you go to Yingjie's house with me today? My brother Qi is Qi Zhengmin's. Second Grandpa is our good brother. Let's go and sit down as a visiting friend. If he is interested, then we can go to the next step. If there is no interest there, you can't trick me and force me to rush forward. ah."

"Ah?" Mr. Tang was stunned, "Are you talking about Qixingwang?"

"Yes, it's Qi Xingwang." Mr. Huo said, "He was also a strong soldier back then. Later, he didn't like the life of intrigues and deceit, so he returned to his hometown. Qi Zhengmin's grandfather and Brother Qi's father are cousins. They have the same grandmother and grandfather. After all, Qi Zhengmin is also Brother Qi’s granddaughter. Now Qi Zhengmin’s father, Qi Shuliang, is a granddaughter worthy of the name. You can’t force this young girl on the strength of your family’s power.”

Mr. Tang was dumbfounded and immediately said: "Hey, Old Huo, you still don't know what I am like? I'm a person who thinks about things before and after. How can I have the courage to bully a little girl?"
