Rebirth 1958: My Home is in Nanluoguxiang

Lao Li's ward is in the high-ranking cadres' inpatient building of the affiliated hospital. There is a reception room and a conference room on each ward floor. After Chang Zhengyang and his six friends asked for a reception room, they closed the door and began to discuss how to give Lao Li a motivation to live.

The first person to speak was family member Tian Yu. She pondered for a while and said uncertainly: "Let Old Li hold his great-grandson?"

Tian Yu smiled self-deprecatingly after she finished speaking. She knew Lao Li too well. This guy had always been a hands-off boss. Even if he wanted to have a great-grandson, she believed that this would not be enough to make Lao Li have too much desire to survive.

Lao Zhao raised his hand and said, "I have a suggestion. Let's take Lao Li to look for the remains of the soldiers who died in the Independent Regiment, as well as their descendants."

His words immediately resonated with Lao Ding, Lao Kong, and Chu Yunfei. Lao Kong said with emotion, "This is a good idea. Alas, our conditions were limited back then, and some of the soldiers who died could only be buried on the spot. It was difficult to find them later. In addition, a lot of information was missing. Some soldiers died, but their families did not enjoy the treatment they deserved."

Lao Ding, who was standing by, agreed: "Although the work of the relevant departments over the past few decades has been fruitful, we must also acknowledge the fact that the remains of some of the fallen soldiers have not been found, and the personal circumstances of some of the fallen soldiers have not been clarified, so I think Lao Li is definitely willing to do this."

Everyone looked at Chang Zhengyang, who nodded and said, "This is a good target, but just in case, you have to come up with a few more."

When everyone saw that Chang Zhengyang agreed, they breathed a sigh of relief and lowered their heads to continue thinking about it.

After a while, Lao Ding suddenly said, "Lao Li is obsessed with the star on his shoulder. What do you think? Can we tell Lao Li that the higher-ups will consider giving honorary general titles to some veteran comrades with outstanding contributions during the 50th anniversary..."

That's what you think!

Lao Kong complained speechlessly: "Forget it, you are still an honorary general. What good things are you thinking? I only have one star so far. I think it’s better to tell Lao Li that you have to hold on. Otherwise, when we go to Japan to accept the surrender of that shitty Japanese emperor, you will regret it when you are gone!"

Old Ding was so angry that he said, "Bullshit, if he's dead, how can you regret it?"

Lao Kong said dissatisfiedly: "Why can't he regret it? He can't regret it in front of the King of Hell!"

"Ahem, can you two please pay attention to the impact? Your family members are still here!"

Old Zhao raised his hand and knocked on the table. After Old Ding and Old Kong bit Tian Yu, they immediately shut their mouths.

Chang Zhengyang on the opposite side showed a helpless expression.

These old guys are really acting more and more like children, and their ideas are all kinds of weird.

Chu Yunfei, who had been silent until then, said, "Everyone, could you please listen to what I have to say?"

Everyone fell silent and looked at Chu Yunfei, who smiled complacently and said, "I have always had a wish, that is, to fight Brother Yunlong on the battlefield. I think Yunlong must think so too, so I have an immature idea. We might as well tell Brother Yunlong that we can use the exercise to command our respective troops to fight. I am not talented, and with Brother Yunlong's ability, I am afraid he cannot beat me..."

Although Chu Yunfei didn't say anything else, everyone understood his subtext.

That is, Li Yunlong is unwilling to fail and will try every means to defeat Chu Yunfei. This is a disguised way of setting a life goal for Lao Li.

Old Zhao and the others looked at each other, nodded slightly, and agreed with Chu Yunfei's proposal. But Chu Yunfei was too confident, which made them a little unhappy.

Lao Ding was a little unconvinced and said, "Brother Chu, how about we have a competition?"

"Chu couldn't ask for more!"

Seeing the growing tension between the two, Chang Zhengyang said at the right time: "Vice Chairman Chu's proposal is feasible. Okay, let's go wake up Lao Li now!"

Chang Zhengyang thought about it, stood up and made a call using the phone in the reception room. Everyone went to Lao Li's ward with him. However, Chang Zhengyang did not wake Lao Li up immediately. Instead, he waited for a while until someone brought a dose of medicine. Only then did he begin to prepare to wake Lao Li up.

He drew out the liquid from the medicine with a syringe and injected it into Lao Li's blood vessel.

Old Zhao and the others watched Chang Zhengyang's operation silently throughout the whole process. About five minutes later, Old Li, with a rosy face, slowly opened his eyes.

Chang Zhengyang nodded upon seeing this, and made way for Tian Yu and said, "Sister-in-law..."

Tian Yu nodded and said softly: "I understand!"

She walked up to Lao Li, sat down and gently held Lao Li's hand.

"Old Li, you're awake!"

When Old Li saw Tian Yu, he turned his head away angrily and asked in a muffled voice, "What are you doing here?"

Tian Yu sighed when he saw this, and then he made up his mind and said, "Old Li, I think Comrade Xiuqin is a good comrade, and I admire her very much. If you want to be buried with her, I won't stop you. But I also have a request. When I die, I want to be buried with you."

"no……"

Old Li turned his head and glared at Tian Yu. When he saw Tian Yu's stubborn, red eyes, he could no longer say the following words.

The two looked at each other in silence for a while, and Lao Li said in a deep voice: "Are you sincere this time?"

Tian Yu clenched his hand, and Lao Li stared into her eyes, sighed and said: "Okay, I want Xiuqin to get to know you too!"

Tian Yu smiled and said, "Okay, I also want to meet Comrade Xiuqin."

cough cough...

If I don't interrupt you two, are you two going to commit suicide for love?

Chang Zhengyang coughed lightly, interrupting their conversation. Tian Yu immediately came to his senses, let go of Lao Li's hand, and stood up to make way.

Seeing this, Old Zhao walked over and excitedly shook Old Li's hand.

"Old Li!"

"Lao Zhao, you're here. I'm sorry, Lao Zhao, I really have to leave this time. I didn't lie to you this time..."

Hearing this, Lao Zhao laughed and scolded, "Don't talk nonsense, Lao Li, I have an idea. I plan to go to northwest Shanxi to find the bodies of the sacrificed soldiers of our independent regiment that have not been found yet, as well as the sacrificed soldiers whose data has been lost. Are you willing to go with me?"

"Really?"

Old Li struggled to sit up, and Old Zhao quickly helped him put a pillow behind his back.

"Really? I'm going to retire soon. When the time comes, we'll go to Northwest Shanxi together, along with Lao Ding, Lao Kong and the others..."

Old Li looked at Old Ding and Old Kong, and they both nodded.

"Okay, I promise you!"

Chang Zhengyang saw that Lao Li's eyes had become much clearer, and he winked at Chu Yunfei, who understood and said, "Brother Yunlong, how are you?"

Old Li looked at Chu Yunfei and said with a chuckle, "Chu Yunfei, I'm fine!"

Chu Yunfei smiled mysteriously and said, "Really? Brother Yunlong, I have always had a wish. I wonder if Brother Yunlong is willing to fulfill this little wish of mine?"

Old Li laughed and said, "Don't play dumb with me, if you have something to say, come on!"

Chu Yunfei said solemnly, "Brother Yunlong, we fought in Nianzhuang that year and ended in a tie. In the past few decades, I thought that you and I would never have the chance to compete again. I have always regretted it. Fortunately, I am back now. So, Brother Yunlong, do you dare to compete with me again?"

"Why are you afraid? Damn it, how are you going to compete?"

Old Li sat up straight with a bang. Looking at his scorching eyes, even a fool would know that Old Li was back.
