At two o'clock in the afternoon, Zhou Bowen just talked to the old man's health care doctor Tang Zihao on the phone, and after making sure that the old man had gotten up to eat, he immediately drove over, of course, he didn't drive far or changed into the Hongqi car, no need to remind, Tang Hao himself blindfolded himself.

got out of the car at the gate of the yard, Tang Hao and Zhou Bowen saw that the old man was really energetic feeding the chickens in the yard, bending down to touch the chickens from time to time, and scared the chickens everywhere, the old man laughed heartily, but these ordinary and ordinary actions made Tang Zihao beside him frightened.

"Chief, if you're like this, I can't let you out, do you know how dangerous it is?" Tang Zihao was a little helpless.

"Okay, okay, okay, you little comrade, you just like this, I know." The old man straightened up and clapped his palms, eighty-year-old Tang Zihao, only a person with such a high life as the old man can be called a little comrade.

As soon as he finished speaking, the old man saw Zhou Bowen and Tang Hao standing at the gate of the courtyard at a glance, and immediately smiled.

"Haha, let's see who's coming, Bowen, and our Director Tang." I didn't sleep all night last night, and I only ate to make up for sleep today, but the old man's spirit seems to be excellent.

"Come, come, you came just in time, old bear, you just sent me a can of fine tea, you are blessed."

"Hehe, old leader, we came here to rub the tea." Zhou Bowen hurriedly took a few steps forward with a smile on his face.

"Hello chief." Tang Hao shouted.

"Okay, okay." The old man looked at Tang Hao with a smile on his face.

The three of them walked into the living room, the tea set had already been set up on the table, the old man wanted to make his own tea, Tang Hao hurriedly got up and wanted to help.

"No, no, my old man is not such a weak person, I think back then, I still carried a bag of rice and ran dozens of miles of mountain roads, and now the old man, although I am old, I will not even be able to make a tea." The old man waved his hand, skillfully ironed the tea set with both hands, poured the tea into it, and the numb movements on his hands did not look like an old man in his 100s at all.

Compared with the elderly, those who are officials should really take a good look, these veterans who have made immortal contributions to this country, even when they are old and should enjoy Qingfu, they have never thought of asking for privileged treatment, and they are other officials, I am afraid that they will have already opened their mouths to ask for money and women, not to mention making tea by themselves, even if they eat by themselves, many current officials want those beauties to feed.

"Why, when you watch me make tea, you think the old man I can't make it well." The old man glanced at Tang Hao happily.

"It's not." Tang Hao shook his head: "Watching you make tea, chief, I can't help but feel some feelings in my heart." ”

"Oh, what does it feel, tell me about it." The old man poured the brewed tea into the teacup as he spoke.

"Come, hurry up and drink it while it's hot, this kind of tea is not available all the time, I got it from Xiong Laojiao."

"It's amazing, it's still the old leader, Xiong Laoli is estimated to die of heartache this time." Zhou Bowen obviously also knew the old man's mouth, and gave the old man a thumbs up.

"That's not it, I'm going to come over and cry again later." The old man said with a smile on his face, and then looked at Tang Hao.

"Didn't you just say that your heart was touched, why, now you are silent again, and you want to learn the Closed Mouth Zen of Buddhism."

"Old man, I think that people like you who should enjoy Qingfu have not been able to enjoy much good treatment, on the contrary, those officials who not only did not make a little contribution to the country but were corrupt, asked for women, and even had to be fed by others, I really felt a little unfair in my heart, so I couldn't help but feel a little emotional."

"Hehe, aren't I enjoying Qingfu now?" After listening to Tang Hao's words, the old man's eyes sank.

"The so-called happiness in your mouth is corruption, do you want women?"

"This is not it, I mean, the old man could have lived in a very comfortable and spacious house, at least he didn't need to do what he did, he didn't need to do it himself, the last time I came over, I saw you lighting a fire on the stove by yourself, and those who are officials, even some village officials now, will definitely not do it."

"You." The old man shook his head and smiled.

"Everyone's pursuit is different, living in a big house is the same as living, a small house is the same as living, why bother, why those false names, as long as you feel comfortable, with a clear conscience, this is the most suitable for yourself, the most comfortable, just like you said some officials, they want to be happy for a while, leave a thousand years of infamy, and even sleep to be woken up, every day is frightened, I don't know when I worry about being arrested, do you think this life is comfortable? I'm just a farmer, and that's just my duty, so what's the point? I used to dream of having a house of my own, now I have, I can have food and clothing without worry, the same has, I can live this life smoothly without illness and disaster, and now I also have it, without a trace of regrets, such a life, how can I say that I am not enjoying Qingfu. ”

Looking at the old man in front of him, Tang Hao suddenly stood up and bowed to the old man.

"Hehe, what are you doing?" The old man seemed to know what Tang Hao wanted to say, and his face was happy.

"Those sensational words, there is no need to say them, hurry up and drink tea, and wait for the tea to be cold."

"Chief, I don't want to say anything sensational, but I still want to say that if the officials in Huaxia are the same as you, why don't we in Huaxia be strong, why worry about being bullied by foreigners."

"You mean, the current Huaxia is not strong enough."

"I didn't mean that." Tang Hao shook his head: "Although it is powerful now, it is still bullied by foreigners, whether it is culturally, militaryly, or technologically, these are nothing, what makes people feel sad is that the views of many people who worship foreigners are not only completely divorced from reality, but also a little dangerous, they think that our country should" Before Tang Hao finished speaking, there was a hearty laughter outside.

"Haha old leader, my old bear smelled the fragrance of tea from afar, did you brew my good tea?" With hearty laughter, a tall, dark-skinned old man appeared in the doorway.

The old man in a military uniform without military rank lowered his head and walked in, and when he saw the other people in the room, he couldn't help but look stunned.

"Hehe, Brother Bowen is also here, I haven't seen you for a long time."

"Brother Xiong, long time no see." Zhou Bowen also nodded and smiled, and then said in a low voice.

"This person is Xiong Xinghua, my brother in life and death."

"Brother Bowen, what are you muttering there, what kind of person is this young man, is your son-in-law?"

"Fuck your fart, this is my master." Zhou Bowen rarely burst into a foul language.

"Master?" Xiong Xinghua stood in front of Tang Hao with wide eyes, judging from his height, Xiong Xinghua is two meters tall, and his body is strong, far from the image of those yellow-faced people and thin people back then, some are similar to the image of Zhang Fei of the Three Kingdoms, except for the lack of those beards on his chin.

"Old Xiong, what are you doing? Stare at my master like this, don't scare him. Zhou Bowen on the side stood up, although Zhou Bowen is also tall, but his height of one meter eight is like a child in front of Xiong Xinghua, who is two meters tall.

"Okay, Brother Bowen, don't fool me, this young man is only in his early twenties at most, you are more than a hundred years old, he is your master? I don't even look like being your apprentice. Xiong Xinghua looked incredulous.

The old man on the side sat there with a smile on his face, and did not stop the quarrel between them.

"Damn, I said he was my master, that's my master." Zhou Bowen is also not to be outdone, not at all like the original elegant appearance, it is very natural for the mouth to be dirty, it seems that this is Zhou Bowen's original image.

"Come, Master Tang, let's have tea." The old man beckoned to Tang Hao, looking at the old man's natural smile, it seemed that every time Zhou Bowen and Xiong Xinghua met, it must be like this.

Tang Hao nodded without hesitation and sat opposite the old man.

"Well, did Bowen tell you about it?" The old man was quick to talk, Tang Hao nodded.

"You two are going to quarrel, go outside and quarrel."

When the two people who were originally arguing heard the old man say this, they both stopped, picked up a cup of tea on the table, and drank it.

"Brother Bowen, the old leader's tea-making skills are becoming more and more sophisticated, I haven't drunk it for three years, and when I drink it today, I not only have a familiar feeling, but also have a great improvement compared to the previous tea-making skills."

"That's right, I also think the old leader's tea-making skills are good." Zhou Bowen nodded.

The appearance of the two at this time is not at all like the quarrel just now, and they just grabbed their sleeves and beat people.

"Okay, you two don't talk about those nice things, you have to drink tea and sit there to drink, Master Tang and I still have something to say."

When the two heard the old man say this, they didn't say anything, they each sat back in their positions, and the old man turned his head and looked at Tang Haodao.

"What do you think, just speak up."

"Hmm." Tang Hao nodded: "Thank you for the kindness of the chief and Elder Zhou, in fact, I think I am still not suitable for this position." ”

"Oh? Here's why. The old man was shocked, and glanced at Zhou Bowen on the side, but the latter quickly lowered his head to drink tea, and the old man seemed to understand something.

"Okay, you've already decided, then I won't force it." The old man nodded.

Tang Hao was a little surprised.

"Don't you ask me why?"

"There's nothing to ask, since you've already decided, you've obviously made up your mind, even if I make you change your mind, it doesn't make any sense."

"I'm sorry." Tang Hao looked at the old man in front of him and suddenly spoke.

The old man looked at Tang Hao with some surprise and said with a smile on his face.

"What do you say to me, I'm sorry? As long as your heart is for this country and you are willing to contribute to this country, no matter what you do, it is enough. ”

"Hmm." Tang Hao nodded, stood up from his position, and said loudly.

"Chief, in my lifetime, I will definitely carry forward the Chinese national arts, Chinese culture, and traditional Chinese medicine, so that the whole world will know our Chinese Three Treasures."

"Hehe, okay." The old man nodded.

"Although I can't see that day anymore, I also hope that the three treasures of our country can be circulated all over the world like the English and the dollar now."

"Yes." Tang Hao solemnly saluted the old man, although he was not a soldier, but only with this could he express his inner excitement at this time.

"Okay, I heard from Bowen, you're still proficient in calligraphy?" The old man asked seemingly casually, which made Tang Hao stunned for a moment, and looked at Zhou Bowen on the side, who nodded.

Tang Hao immediately smiled.
