Zhong Xiaoai gave me a fourth child, and it has nothing to do with you, Hou Liangping.

imperial capital.

At the foot of Yunlu Mountain.

Martyrs.

A hero's tomb.

On the tombstone, it is clearly engraved:

Tomb of the great national marshal Zhao Shangzhong.

The cemetery is a place where the loyal bones of the country and the souls of heroes are buried.

Even though it is a tomb, it gives people a sense of majestic momentum.

Qi Tongwei's car arrived outside the cemetery and slowly stopped.

get off.

Zhao Mengsheng supported Wu Shuang, and Qi Tongwei carried the sacrificial offerings.

Three generations of a family walked straight to the hero’s tomb of Zhao Shangzhong.

When standing in front of the grave, Qi Tongwei also felt a sense of awe in his heart.

You know, his grandfather crossed the snow-capped mountains, walked through the grasslands, carried a gun, charged into battle, killed the enemies and defended the motherland.

In such turbulent times, the country was destroyed and families were ruined, and countless soldiers risked their lives to defend the country.

Place the offerings.

Burn incense and paper.

Wu Shuang sighed slightly and spoke with a choked voice.

"Old Zhao, it's your death anniversary again this year!"

"Mengsheng and I are here to see you!"

"If you are still alive in heaven, you must have seen that our eldest grandson Tong Wei has also come to visit you!"

"We have been searching for so many years, and finally our family is reunited, and Tongwei has found his roots."

"Of course, Tongwei also helped the Zhao family to expand and give us grandchildren. This can be considered as Tongwei's blessing of having many children!"

"Old Zhao, our eldest grandson is very outstanding. He served in the army and then became a politician. He cares about the people, governs for the people, and builds the party for the public."

"He truly practiced the purpose of serving the people through his practical actions."

"He is the pride of our Zhao family. As a grandmother, I am extremely proud of him."

"Old Zhao, it would be great if you were still alive~"

Talking and talking.

Wu Shuang couldn't help but burst into tears.

Qi Tongwei supported Wu Shuang and comforted him.

"Grandma, I'm so sorry, please take care of yourself!"

Wu Shuang calmed down a little and spoke to Qi Tongwei lovingly.

"Tongwei, come, kowtow to your grandfather and call him Grandpa!"

Qi Tongwei obeyed, "Okay, grandma!"

Finished.

"thump!"

Qi Tongwei's knees softened and he knelt in front of Zhao Shangzhong's tomb.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

Kowtowed three times.

He spoke solemnly.

"Grandpa, your unfilial grandson Qi Tongwei is here to see you!"

"grandfather……"

Qi Tongwei's heart was surging, and he felt the blood boiling from the heroic spirit.

For him, paying homage to his grandfather is like receiving the baptism of a hero.

It makes his soul more sublime.

Zhao Mengsheng also choked up a bit as he spoke.

"Dad, we're here to see you!"

"As for Tongwei, he has inherited your military spirit. Along the way, he has lived up to the bloodline of our Zhao family and has carried on your legacy, serving the country and the people."

A sigh and a tribute.

The family of three formed a beautiful landscape in front of the hero's tomb...

After paying homage to his grandfather, Qi Tongwei accompanied Wu Shuang and Zhao Mengsheng back to Diyuan Mansion.

After bidding farewell to his grandma and dad, he went to the Siheyuan compound at No. 95 Luoguxiang, Xizhimen…

I found the relevant person in charge, negotiated the price, and bought the entire compound.

Then, we took care of the labor and materials and renovated the courtyard house...

Obviously.

After Qi Tongwei’s personnel appointment is finalized, it will be time for him to take up his official post in Beijing.

After making all the arrangements in the imperial capital, Qi Tongwei left the capital and returned to Handong.

As soon as the flight landed in Handong, he received calls from his comrade-in-arms Zhuang Yan and the editor Ge Ling with whom he had worked for many years.

"Hello, Qi Bu, where are you? Director Zhuang and I have already met in Handong and are waiting for you to come and discuss further!"

Qi Tongwei laughed, "Okay, Miss Ge, I'll be there right away!"

Zhuang Yan also called Qi Tongwei personally, "Hey, Qi Bu, you are a very busy man now, you are very popular~"

Qi Tongwei groaned, "Xiao Zhuang, uh, no, no, Director Zhuang, I'm counting on you for dinner now!"

"I've signed film and television adaptation rights for all my novels. It's all up to you!"

Zhuang Yan laughed heartily, "Minister Qi, don't worry, how about this, you come to Yilan Teahouse and we'll meet there!"

Qi Tongwei said straightforwardly.

"it is good!"

After hanging up the phone, he called Linglong again.

"Hey, Dad, have you returned to Handong?"

"I'm back, baby. Haven't you always wanted to pursue your literary dream?"

"Come out and go meet your Uncle Xiaozhuang with dad!"

When Linglong heard this, she cheered in surprise and joy.

"Ah? Dad, is this true? Can I do this? Uncle Xiaozhuang is a famous director in China~"

Qi Tongwei said with a smile.

"Of course it's true. You can take a taxi to Yilan Teahouse."

"I just got off the plane. Let's go through the airport."

Linglong nodded happily and said, "Okay~"

Qi Tongwei left the airport, took a taxi and went straight to Yilan Teahouse.

at this time.

Yilan Teahouse.

Zhuang Yan, Ge Ling and Lin Ying were sitting in the private room.

They were talking about Qi Tongwei's various masterpieces.

Lin Ying was the first to exclaim in amazement and sigh.

"If you ask me, Qi Bu is simply a genius. I can't imagine how he can come up with so many weird novel plots in his mind."

"For example: The Three-Body Problem, which is a completely independent worldview that is different from Western science fiction."

Ge Ling smiled calmly.

"That was, from the very beginning, our editorial department was about to go bankrupt."

"Hey, Qi Bu took his debut novel, 'The Three-Body Problem', to many publications and publishers, but was rejected by all of them."

"Fortunately, he found me. I was also confused at the time. When I read his novel, I was amazed by its conception and the whole story."

"It completely subverts traditional martial arts and is absolutely groundbreaking and epoch-making."

“So, at that time, I signed the contract directly.”

“Once it was serialized, it exploded like a volcano and instantly attracted the readers’ love.”

Zhuang Yan also expressed his sincere emotion.

"Speaking of Qi Bu, from when we were in the army, I was his comrade-in-arms and went through several battles. He was definitely brave and resourceful."

"He is a talented general..."

Ge Ling stared at Zhuang Yan with curiosity, "Director Zhuang, I was very curious about you and Qi Bu. You were in the army and doing well. How come you suddenly retired?"

"You changed your job and became a director directly, while Qi Bu became the mayor."

"Come to think of it, you two are quite dramatic."

Zhuang Yan raised his hand and scratched his crew cut. "As for me, I don't really have much ambition to be a soldier."

"After serving for a few years, I got tired of the military life and retired."

"Of course, the years I spent in the military are also the most precious wealth of my life."

"I will never forget that I am a soldier."

"As for being a director, that has been my dream since I was a child. After I served in the army and retired, I pursued my dream of being a director."

"..."

While talking.

Qi Tongwei brought his daughter Linglong to Yilan Teahouse and walked into the private room.

He greeted Zhuang Yan and Ge Ling politely and introduced Linglong to them.

"My daughter, Linglong, has a dream of becoming a writer. In the future, she may need the help of the beautiful editor Ge and Director Zhuang."

Zhuang Yan: “…”

Ge Ling: “…”
