Siheyuan: Since 51

Small courtyard, stone table.

Lin Zhiyuan and Lin Jialiang were playing chess and chatting.

"Uncle, are you safe over there?"

General Liang Tima of the Lin Family: "It's OK, it's within an acceptable range."

Lin Zhiyuan supported the right prime minister, General Jie, and said, "That's good. I read the newspaper and it seems like there's going to be trouble."

"Don't overthink it. The steel mill isn't even in order yet, and yet you're so worried."

Lin Jialiang cursed with a smile, then changed the subject.

"Zhihao has graduated from high school. I plan to send him to Bingcheng. What do you think?"

Lin Zhiyuan curled the corners of his mouth and nodded with a smile.

"Of course he can. He thinks so. He keeps exercising and studying hard, but he's holding back."

Lin Jialiang raised his eyebrows and pursed his lips to indicate.

"You can ask him in private. He is closer to you and Huairu now, so your aunt and I can't open our mouths."

Lin Zhiyuan couldn't help but laugh, "Look at what you said, you guys are just overthinking, Zhihao is very sensible."

"If you ask me, I'll ask."

"Yes, yes, I ask."

……

In the evening, Lin Zhihao came back from a stroll.

Lin Zhiyuan stepped forward and put his hand on Lin Zhihao's shoulder.

"Come on, let's talk for a few words."

The two of them left the courtyard again and walked into the alley.

Lin Zhiyuan raised his eyebrows slightly and lowered his voice.

"Zhihao, you have graduated from high school. According to your estimation, you will have no problem getting into college. Have you ever thought about going to a military academy?"

Lin Zhihao's eyes flashed and he nodded immediately.

"Of course. Isn't it for this that I have been holding it in for six years?"

As he spoke, he hesitated again.

"Our teacher said that it would be better to go to college first and then go to military school. What do you think, brother?"

Lin Zhiyuan thought of the strong wind and stopped smiling.

"Nonsense, military academy is also a university, just with a different focus. Don't waste your time, just go to military academy!"

"Okay, big brother, I'll listen to you then."

Lin Zhiyuan turned around and said, "Let's go home. Second Uncle is here too, let him know and let them make the arrangements!"

"Okay, I've been wanting to talk to you guys these past few days."

Once dinner is proposed, everyone is naturally happy.

As for the follow-up, Lin Zhiyuan didn't take it seriously because the brigade commander was still working part-time.

Lin Zhihao didn't worry at all and just waited until school started.

Half a month later, I received the notice.

dinner.

Lin Zhihao took the notice, shook it, grinned, and was extremely excited.

"Mom and Dad, Big Brother and Sister-in-law, Sister Xiaoyu, I'm going to college!"

As he said that, he rolled his eyes and winked, "I'll give you five days to prepare. I want a gift too."

As soon as the words fell, Wu Xia couldn't help but laugh.

"Good boy, how did you jump onto the gift?"

Lin Zhihao scratched the back of his head and chuckled.

"When my second brother started school, I gave away my treasures. When Xiaoyu started school, I gave her another one. Isn't it customary in our family to receive gifts for college students?"

Lin Manyu chuckled, "Look at you, I've prepared it for you a long time ago. I'll get it for you."

Qin Huairu also smiled and said, "It's a done deal, and you won't be left out."

A group of people stood up without even eating.

After a while, return again.

Lin Jialiang took out a pen and handed it over.

"Here, this is the spoils I captured when I killed the first Japanese major."

Lin Zhihao accepted it happily and looked at it over and over again.

"Wow, this is a good sign! Dad, don't worry, I'll give you one when I find something good later."

Lin Jialiang laughed, "Okay, I'll be waiting."

Wu Xia took out a wooden box, which was slightly larger than an ordinary pencil case.

"Here, it's my first time doing publicity work. A fellow villager helped me make this. I've been using it as a pencil case."

Lin Zhihao happily took it, opened it, and put the pen in it.

"Okay, Mom, don't worry, I'll seize two more when the time comes."

Qin Huairu gave me a watch and said with a smile: "I am not original. I gave watches to all three of you. Zhihao, you won't dislike it, right?"

Lin Zhihao grinned and waved his hands repeatedly, "Of course not, I've been waiting for a long time."

Lin Manyu took out a book and put it down slowly.

"You want to be a great general, so shouldn't you read the Art of War? I don't really understand it either, so I bought you a copy of The Art of War by Sun Tzu."

"Okay, okay, Sister Xiaoyu, you are absolutely right."

Lin Zhihao didn't dislike it at all. He became happier and happier as he collected more and more. He glanced sideways at Lin Zhiyuan, with anticipation in his eyes.

Lin Zhiyuan chuckled and deliberately spread his hands, "Doesn't your sister-in-law represent me?"

Lin Zhihao's eyes widened immediately, "Brother, are you embarrassed?"

"Haha, I'm not kidding you anymore."

As he spoke, Lin Zhiyuan pulled out a folding knife from his pocket and did something fancy with it.

Lin Zhihao reached out and grabbed it, grinning, and swiped it a few times to imitate how he played with it.

……

Lin Zhihao was in a very happy mood during the gift-receiving session.

Nine days later, on August 8th.

The night before leaving, Lin Jialiang and Lin Zhiyuan took Lin Zhihao out for a drink, which could be considered a coming-of-age ceremony!

The drinking party ended at midnight.

Lin Zhiyuan is cheating and is very sober.

He threw Lin Jialiang onto the bed, carried the unconscious Lin Zhihao, and returned to the small courtyard.

Come to Lin Zhihao's room.

After closing the door, he smoked a few cigarettes, made sure that Lin Zhihao was asleep, grabbed his hand, and slipped into the space.

The same juice enters the mouth, and when the black oil appears, use your mind to clean it up and return to reality.

The next day, early morning.

Lin Zhihao was still hungover and was not able to exert his strength effectively, so he muttered to himself.

"Damn, alcohol is really not a good thing. I can't drink it anymore."

The 30th happened to be Sunday.

Lin Zhiyuan accompanied Lin Jialiang and his wife and sent Lin Zhihao to the train station.

on the platform.

Lin Zhihao carried the package, waved his hand, and walked onto the train.

Wu Xia's eyes couldn't help but well up in tears. They had been separated so many times, but this moment was particularly painful.

In the past, whether it was placed in the headquarters or in the capital, at least someone would take care of it.

Now, in turn, Lin Zhihao faces the unknown.

Perhaps seeing that his daughter-in-law was upset, Lin Jialiang comforted her.

"Don't worry, I've explained everything I need to say, and there will be someone to pick you up after you get off the train."

Lin Zhiyuan also agreed, "Second Aunt, Zhihao's departure is like a young eagle spreading its wings and a young tiger roaring in the forest. You should be happy."

Wu Xia's lips curved slightly, and she smiled: "I'm happy, why wouldn't I be happy? I'm crying with joy."

After putting away his luggage, Lin Zhihao leaned against the window and waved continuously.

"Mom, Dad, and Big Brother, you guys go back. This is a sleeper berth, so I won't suffer."

Mr. and Mrs. Lin Jialiang have never had a privileged mindset.

The brigade commander couldn't bear to see the sleeper tickets and helped to coordinate them.

As for showing their ID and getting in the car to send them off, the two never thought about it.

"Zhihao, come on!"

Lin Zhiyuan shouted and waved.

The train whistled loudly and started moving. Lin Zhihao embarked on an eventful military career.

evening.

The brigade commander rarely comes back, so Lin Zhiyuan and his nephew go to visit him.

Together with Kenong, the three elders chatted, and Lin Zhiyuan served them on the side.

The three of them didn't talk about any confidential matters, but the information revealed in just a few words made Lin Zhiyuan more and more shocked.
