Rebirth 78, the beginning of the marriage was broken off by the female educated youth

"Jade pendant? Is this grandma's jade pendant?"

After hearing these words and looking at the coin with an ancient shape and carved dragon pattern, Li Xiangnan was shocked.

He finally understood why he felt familiar with the jade pendant when he first saw it!

Because Old Li’s family... has a jade pendant with the same pattern and almost identical carving craftsmanship, but with slight differences in the details of the pattern!

The jade pendant is in...

"Is it mother's jade pendant?"

At this moment.

Seeing the jade pendant in Jiang Guiying's hand, Tong Yu stood up immediately.

Her voice trembled slightly, and she was almost unable to suppress her excitement!

Then, he pulled a red rope from his neck and took off the jade pendant he had been wearing for many years!

"Aunt Jiang, what's going on?"

Jiang Guiying looked nostalgic as she took the jade pendant from her hand and gently held it in her palm.

Immediately, the two jade pendants formed a large ring with a dragon and a phoenix playing, and were tightly clasped together.

Such a delicate and exquisite single jade pendant was actually combined into one at this moment, becoming a large whole.

Everyone present stood up, their eyes fiery, excited and curious, all of them cast their gazes on the pair of jade pendants that seemed to contain some meaning.

Jiang Guiying didn't say anything, but looked at Li Dequan, spread out her palm and handed over the jade pendant.

Taking a deep breath, Li Dequan took the jade pendant with trembling hands. For a moment, he felt melancholy, and his thoughts seemed to have returned to that era of war and displacement.

In that era, he met and fell in love with the silly girl Huanying, went in and out of Lijia Village several times, and finally separated from her in the troubled times.

It was as if that period of time was an unreal time that he had stolen from his life.

"In 1921, the world was in turmoil. I was just eighteen years old at that time. My grandfather ordered me to go out of the village to save the world. I met sixteen-year-old Huanying outside..."

Li Dequan spoke obscurely, recalling the scenes of the past, and found that many things he thought he had forgotten seemed to appear in his mind clearly at this moment.

He stroked the jade pendant, and the innocent and heroic girl who was determined to save her country seemed to appear before his eyes.

Everyone at the table sat down slowly and looked at old man Li Dequan, as if they were there and felt the hardships and hopes of those years.

"…At that time, she participated in the student movement, shouted in front of the warlord's house, followed the trend of thought and founded a private publication, trying to save the country with ideas…Later, when the war came, she resolutely joined the army. After many twists and turns, she almost lost her life. I met Huanying again at Yanger Temple, saved her from serious injuries, and brought her back to the village…Later, we got married and had children. Not long after, the world was in chaos, and the elders of the clan ordered my people to go out to save the world. Your mother…"

Li Dequan looked at the three children who were already in tears and sighed, "She carried me on her back and followed the army for 15 days. When we encountered a fierce battle in North China, Huanying came to give me ammunition. Only then did I know that she had secretly escaped again!"

When he said this, he looked at Qin Zongheng.

"Yes, that's when we met!" Qin Zongheng shook hands with his wife Jiang Guiying.

"Well, that was in 37, when the Japanese invaded the Central Plains... In 43, our regiment was surrounded and only a small battalion was left in the entire regiment. We needed to break out, and there were not many uninjured soldiers. I was going to break out! But Huanying replaced me..."

Jiang Guiying said with tears in her eyes.

Qin Zongheng also choked up and said, "I remember that day very clearly. Huanying called the four of us together! She took off the jade pendant from her neck and said that if the four of us didn't die, we would be close friends for generations! She gave the dragon pendant to us and the phoenix pendant to Zhong Mo..."

"..."

After hearing these touching words, everyone present fell silent.

Silent sobbing began. Even the seven strong men of the three generations of the Qin family felt sincere admiration for Senior Huanying's courage to face death head-on in the tragic battle of that year.

Zhang Zhidong, Xia Jingfeng, and several battalion commanders who were sitting nearby had already lowered their heads with red eyes.

Zhang Zhidong had participated in that war, and now whenever he wakes up from his dreams at midnight, he would break out in a cold sweat.

At this moment, he only felt the passion and anger in his lungs igniting the blood in his body again.

"I was only seventeen at that time. Brother Hai and Brother Zhong Mo took care of me and never let me fight on the front line! Brother Hai was shot in the right arm and couldn't move his gun. Brother Zhong Mo's leg was also injured and he couldn't charge at all! It was Sister Huanying who desperately broke out and brought the life-saving information of the position to the 14th Army..."

Zhang Zhidong said softly, with tears in his eyes.

"Yes! Since then, Huanying has disappeared! I don't know if she encountered war on her way back to the camp, or was killed by the enemy... We don't know where she went, or what happened to her! For this, Guiying has been blaming herself all these years..." Qin Zongheng sighed.

"Brother!" Jiang Guiying held Li Dequan's hand with tears in her eyes. "If I could go back to those days, I would definitely replace Sister Huanying without hesitation! Let me break through on my own! I will break through on my own..."

"Guiying! It's not your fault! Huanying has her own ambitions! Given the situation at the time, it was indeed she who was the most suitable person to go! She has been fighting in the war for more than ten years and has plenty of experience!" Li Dequan smiled and was proud of his woman.

But the people sitting around, both young and old, had already burst into tears.

"It turns out that my grandma is such a brave and passionate person! Grandpa, grandma is amazing!"

Grandpa likes to talk about the war back then, but he never mentions anything about grandma.

Li Xiangnan's eyes were filled with tears, and in his mind he felt deep admiration for the grandmother whom he had never met.

"Yes! She is amazing! She is the pride of our Li family!" Li Dequan stood up, patted his grandson on the shoulder, and waved to Qin Ruobai who was in tears, "Ruobai, come here too!"

"Grandpa!" Qin Ruobai cried softly, then stood up and came to Li Dequan's side.

Snapped!

The jade pendant was broken open again by the old man.

He stretched out his hand and returned the phoenix to the phoenix and the dragon to the dragon.

The phoenix pendant was placed around Qin Ruobai's neck.

The dragon was worn around Li Xiangnan's neck.

Finally, Li Dequan put their hands together and looked at them solemnly and expectantly.

"Xiangnan, Ruobai, from now on, you must live in harmony and love each other! Don't let down our Li and Qin families' expectations and hopes for you! Don't let down the incense your grandmother risked her life to continue for our Qin and Li families! And don't let down the peaceful era created for us by your Grandpa Qin, Uncle Zhang and others who sacrificed countless lives!"

Li Xiangnan held the old man's hand tightly, and held Qin Ruobai's soft palm tightly, nodded heavily, and choked up and said: "Grandpa, we remember it!"
