Chapter 141 Grave Relocation
"Wife, is grandma still in good health and can she take a car?"
After lunch, the couple sat on a small bamboo bed under a big tree in the yard to enjoy the cool air. Sheng Tunan fanned Zhan Xinyue with a large cattail leaf fan.
"Of course. During this period, grandma has been drinking honey and taking Chinese medicine every day. I just gave her an acupuncture and she is still in good health. I made a lot of pills in advance when I came back this time, for the treatment of heatstroke, palpitations, dizziness, and acute gastrointestinal diseases." Zhan Xinyue replied.
"Are you worried that there are still enemy spies hiding in the dark and want to return to Beijing earlier to be safer?" Zhan Xinyue asked again.
"Yeah." Sheng Tunan's face was heavy. This time the enemy spies were targeting him. Someone must have leaked the fact that he was the commander of the AI division.
"I suspect there is a traitor in the Beijing Military Region! The enemy agents wanted to assassinate me in order to prevent the establishment of the AI Division. They also knew that I have a grandmother in my hometown, and the specific address of my hometown. The timing was just right. We arrived at the Changhong Battalion at around 10 o'clock this morning, and the enemy agents happened to kidnap my grandmother today."
Sheng Tunan analyzed that if they kidnapped grandma one day earlier, she would be discovered by the members of the Changhong Brigade. The comrades in the militia company would go looking for her and even report the case. In that case, the enemy agents would be in a passive position.
If it was one day later, after Sheng Tunan came back, they would have no chance to take action.
"I think so too." Zhan Xinyi stood up and took out ten big unity notes from his small bag and gave them to Sheng Tunan.
"Without further delay, go find Secretary Liu and ask him to help find ten laborers to dig up the graves, open the coffins, put the remains of the uncles and aunts into new coffins, and then carry them into the hearse. Here are 100 yuan, give yuan to each of the people who help you."
Zhan Xinyue was in charge of the family's money. Sheng Tunan didn't have any money on him, so he took the money and said, "My wife is really thoughtful."
"Lao Wu and I will go to the Public Security Bureau to inquire about the interrogation and see if there are any clues."
We have to return to the capital today, and time is running out, so we have to split up into two groups.
"it is good."
Zhan Xinyue went out to find Shen Zhiyan, and Sheng Tunan went into the house to discuss digging the grave and opening the coffin with his grandmother.
The old lady knew that her grandson's current position was very important. If she stayed in the Changhong Brigade, more enemy agents would come to kidnap her and threaten Sheng Tunan. This time, without Sheng Tunan saying anything, grandma was packing her luggage and preparing to go back to the capital with them.
She is old and useless, but she cannot cause trouble to her grandchildren and their wives.
"Grandma, we are going to dig up the graves and open the coffins. Grandpa Wen, whom Xinyue recognized, has prepared four good coffins in advance. We will move the remains of grandpa and uncles out intact. Do you want to go?"
Sheng Tunan asked with difficulty, but he couldn't make the decision on behalf of his grandmother and stop her from going. After all, these four people were his grandmother's dearest and most beloved ones.
"I'm not going." Grandma Sheng stroked the portraits of her three sons, all of which were taken before they joined the army. At that time, China was facing life and death. The enemy had planes, cannons and tanks, and we only had rifles and a few grenades.
This was a war of eggs hitting stones. Our martyrs knew that they would risk their lives on the battlefield, but they still went there without hesitation.
The military leaders are also aware of this situation. Before new soldiers join the army, they will take a photo of them and give it to their families as a memory.
It would be better if they could come back alive, but if they can’t, this photo will be their last image in this world.
The Sheng family had three good sons, named Sheng Huaiyi, Sheng Huairen and Sheng Huaichuan. They died on the battlefield. Only the eldest son's body was relatively intact, but he also had a broken hand.
The second son, Sheng Huairen, was blown away, and his comrades found a leg among the scattered body parts. They were able to confirm it because there was a word "Ren" embroidered by Grandma Sheng on his shoes.
The third brother, Sheng Huaichuan, lost an ear and both legs.
That year, when the body was sent back, Grandma Sheng fainted once.
As a mother, I don’t have the courage to take a second look.
