The guard looked at Su Mingpeng, begging: "Mr. Su!"

Su Mingpeng wiped away a trace of moisture from the corners of his eyes, and slowly held Su Weizheng's outstretched hand: "Dad."

Su Wei was laughing until he coughed violently, Su Mingpeng gently helped him to breathe.

Su Wei was overjoyed, and some of the color returned to his face, and he even spoke more quickly: "I married my wife late, and I gave birth to a son late...Xiaopeng, I still remember, I am 40 years old, The first time I had a son... I hugged you, and my mood at that time..."

Su Mingpeng: "Stop talking."

Su Weizheng coughed twice and recovered his breath: "I have to say... I've been sleeping for longer and longer, I have to finish my words while awake...Xiaopeng, your mother gave birth to the bright moon Time has passed, I didn't care about my family back then, you brought up those little ones... The elder brother is like a father, my father is like a father, my father is not good, but fortunately I have you... ... I have to thank you..."

Su Mingpeng's eyes were dark, he didn't know what he was thinking, and he squeezed Su Weizheng's hand tightly.

Su Weizheng: "Your wife passed away, it was my fault...you haven't called me daddy since then...it's been more than 20 years, I miss you calling me daddy... "..."

"Dad, stop talking and have a good rest." Su Mingpeng seemed to want to escape.

Su Weizheng didn't know where the strength came from, and grabbed Su Mingpeng's hand tightly, not letting go: "Don't go, don't go..."

Su Mingpeng hesitated, then didn't move: "I won't leave."

Su Weizheng: "Grandson listens to you, you...you let him..."

Su Mingpeng gently touched his son.

Su Yi lowered his head and remained silent for two seconds: "Grandpa."

This was the first time that Su Yi called Su Weizheng Grandpa in person.

Su Weizheng showed a happy smile on his face: "It's a pity that the old man can't wait for the four generations to live together... His grandson is not young anymore, he should start a family anyway..."

Su Mingpeng glanced at his son: "Did you hear that?"

Su Yi could only smile wryly.

Su Wei was falling asleep, and Su Mingpeng and his son left the ward.

Walking out of the hospital, Su Mingpeng looked at the clear sky: "You should let him see you get married in his lifetime. Your second and third brothers are already planning to have children, what are you waiting for?"

Su Yi sighed: "When that day comes, the army will tell me that you are dying, and we don't need you to fight on the front line. At that time, I will get married and live a stable life."

Su Mingpeng: "What if the army doesn't release people for a long time? And what if, you..."

He paused.

Su Yi understood what his father meant: "Any chance, before the army released me, I sacrificed myself."

"Shut up!" Su Mingpeng sternly shouted, he rarely spoke harshly to his son like this.

Su Yi was very calm: "People are mortal. What's the difference between staying behind and not leaving behind?"

Su Mingpeng: "What time should I do? You are turning [-] now, so you should get married and have children!"

Su Yi: "Back then, when you were fighting the Vietnam War, my mother was holding me at home. She didn't say anything, but I knew that she was afraid. She was worried that you wouldn't be able to eat well or sleep soundly. Is this fair to her? Is it fair to us? Don’t do to others what you don’t want to be done to others. I risked my life on the front line, and my wife and children worried about my life and death in the rear. I don’t want my future wife and children to suffer such injustice.”

Su Mingpeng was stunned: "Do you still remember..."

Su Yi: "Yes, I remember all of them. When you sent a letter home, Mom cried at your letter."

Su Mingpeng lowered his eyes: "Is there any other reason?"

"Yes. If my wife and children are in the rear, I will have concerns, which means that I am greedy for life and afraid of death. Now I dare to fight because I am not afraid of death, but after having concerns, it means that the mission success rate will be reduced, and the cost of battle damage will be reduced." Ascension," Su Yi hesitated, "I think it may be because of this that grandpa chose to start a family after the war."

Su Mingpeng stared at his son, ignoring his real age, his son looked very young: "I understand, I won't discuss this matter with you again."

Finally, his father no longer insisted on the marriage, but Su Yi couldn't be cheerful.

Back at the base, he went back to his home—an empty house.

He washes and cooks rice by himself, and the porridge and pickled vegetables are bland and tasteless.

Living alone and eating alone, a bachelor can only make do.

Su Yi sighed, who doesn't want to live a peaceful life?But not yet.

Four years later, the founding general Su Weizheng died in Beijing at the age of 95 due to illness and medical treatment.

This is the tenth founding general who died this year.

When looking at a person's morality, one cannot judge it one-sidedly.A person's morality is divided into two parts, public morality and private morality.

There are some traitors who harm the country and the people, but they are filial to their parents and loyal to their families.Their public morals are corrupt, but no one can deny their noble personal morals.

And some people, they have dedicated themselves to the country and the people, but their families may not be harmonious.They may be unfilial to their parents, unkind to their children, and what's more, kill their relatives for the sake of national justice.They have high public morals, but not necessarily private morals.

Su Weizheng undoubtedly belongs to the latter.

Aside from family disharmony, General Su is impeccable in public morality.

He was born in Beijing in 1918 and was admitted to Peking University in 1936. He is one of the few famous college students among the founding generals.

He devoted himself to the revolution at the age of 18 and joined the Chinese National Liberation Vanguard. He joined the Eighth Route Army at the age of 20 and joined the Party at the same year. He has experienced many battles in his revolutionary career.

He was originally in the army and supported the party's first artillery brigade. At that time, he was only 30 years old, and his partner was only 26 years old, both of whom were young and promising.

Later, New China started to develop the navy and needed a strong man to sit in charge.He obeyed the organizational arrangement, resolutely gave up the foundation he worked hard in the army, and single-handedly expanded the navy of New China.

No matter what his children think of him, his achievements are seen by the country.

He may never have been a good father, a good husband, but he was a good general.

In addition to the Su family and some relatives, there were more people at the top of the country at the funeral. They came to see him off for the last time and thanked him for his contribution to the country.

Su Yi was out on a mission, so he didn't get to see the old general for the last time, and even the funeral was only halfway there.

"Little General Su, this way." The guard picked him up at the airport, with anxiety and sadness on his face.

Su Yi rushed too fast, he was still wearing his training uniform, but he just washed off the oil paint on his face.The epaulets on his shoulders are one spike and one star, but the others are no different from the first-line soldiers.

The author has something to say: Regarding public morality and private morality, don't complain if you don't like it, it's just a baby's worldview. . . . . .
