The Green Tea’s Crushing Victories in the ’70s
Tong Xuelu rubbed Xiao Jiu on his head and praised him. âXiao Jiu is so incredible. He can write his own name at such young age!â
Xiao Jiu was so happy that he was praised that he blushed.Tong Mianmian still couldnât write her own name. Seeing her Big Sister praised Xiao Jiu, she thrusted her lips out and said, âI am a good girl. I stopped peeing the bed at 2. What about you, Xiao Jiu? At what age did you stop peeing the bed?âXiao Jiuâs face turned even redder when he heard that. He stammered for a long time and wasnât able to answer that question.Everybody busted out laughing when they saw him like that.These two kiddoes were too cute.Tong Xuelu and her siblings had lunch at the Suâs before they took off. Mother Su asked them to visit often and Tong Xuelu said yes to that.***A minor incident happened at the base and Wen Rugui and his mentor Jiao Boshan went to help out.That took three weeksâ time and he Wen Rugui had been so busy that he barely had time to eat. He lost a lot of weight.When his way back from the base back to his research facility, he ran into a friend whom he hadnât seen in many years.Well, he was not exactly a friend.He, too, used to live in the military compound and was in the same class as Wen Rugui. The two would head to school and back together and they were quite close.His parents were transferred to the northwest later on and the two had fallen out of touch.Had he not called out to Wen Rugui first, Wen Rugui would never had recognized him.Sun Wuyang smiled and said, âWhat a coincidence. Where are you heading to, Rugui? Back to Capital City?âWen Rugui shook his head. âI am heading back to the research center.âSun Wuyang was shocked. âYou work at the research center? I felt for sure that you would have joined the air force much like your father and your grandpa.âWen Ruguiâs eyes lowered a little. âI enjoy research and physics.âSun Wuyang rubbed his chin. âOh, I see. I thought you didnât want to join the air force because you were traumatized by your fatherâs death. Hahahaâ¦â¦âWen Ruguiâs thick and dark eyelashes covered up his eyes and he didnât say anything.The girl next to Sun Wuyang shoved him and gave him a star.The girl then walked forward and smiled at him. âHi Comrade Wan, itâs good to see you again.âWen Rugui looked up and looked at the girl long and hard before he finally asked, âPardon me, but you areâ¦?âSun Manrouâs smile froze on her. âI am Sun Manrou. Weâve met on the train heading northwest a couple of months ago. You helped me arrest the spy and saved my life.âWen Rugui let out an âOh.â âHi Comrade Sun.âAnd then that was that.Sun Manrou had an awkward look.Sun Wuyang looked from Wen Rugui to Sun Manrou and said curiously, âYou two know each other? Xiao Rou, Rugui was the one who saved you before?âSun Manrou nodded. âThatâs right. It was lucky that I ran into him that day. I couldnât imagine how things would have turned out otherwise.âSun Wuyang chuckled. âWhat a coincidence. Rugui, Xiao Rou is my cousin. Sheâs a very talented member of the Sun family and also a pretty girl.âSun Manrou looked shy and shoved him some. âWhat are you talking about, Third Brother!ââYou donât have to be shy. Everything that I have said is true. Besides, Rugui is like family,â said Sun Wuyang as he chuckled and scratched his head.He turned back toward Wen Rugui and said, âOh right, Rugui, my family will be moving back to Capital City and back to the military compound in the next couple of days. Letâs get together sometime.âWen Rugui looked nonchalant. âI need to head back to the base and have no idea when I will have time off.âEven if he had time off, he didnât want to get together with Sun Wuyang. All he wanted to do was to spend all his time with his girlfriend.Sun Wuyang, âThatâs alright. We will all be at the military compound. I am sure we will run into each other.âWen Rugui nodded.The car back to the base had come and he parted with the Sun siblings before he got into the car.
