After New Year's Day, Qiao Lu sent some money back, but Li Lanzhi couldn't return it, so she had to accept the money. She discussed with her husband and bought a new air conditioner for the store, and with a little money left, she was ruthless and bought Jolene a new long down jacket. I told you not to burn your clothes again this time.

Jolene, who was wearing new clothes, was reluctant to take them off and showed off to others everywhere. The heating in the classroom was so hot that she sweated and wore it all the time. If someone asked, she would be very proud to say that her sister bought it for me! The classmates envied her for having a good sister, but they couldn't help but discuss in private that which of the three siblings was not biological.

There are always some elderly people gathered in the family courtyard of No. 2 Middle School, who are cool in the summer, bask in the sun in the winter, and maybe have grandchildren with them. Jolene's new dress fits perfectly, and the grandmothers will praise them when they see it—Linlin has finally grown up, and she is no longer the black and thin little girl. She is getting more and more smart, bright and smooth, like a clothes rack, and she can be a star.

Qiao Lin was very happy, of course, she didn't forget to show off her sister, and these old people sighed again, when the children of the Qiao family grow up, none of them are simple!

Unlike the children of the Qiao family who were praised, Xu Wei's situation was much worse. The advantage of living in a family home is that the adults are colleagues and the neighbors take care of each other, which is rare, but the disadvantage is that the elderly in the home have watched the children grow up, and when they grow up, the troubles of childhood are still the constant topic of their small talk.

Xu Wei is a typical victim.

He was obviously just messing around behind Qiao Nan, but when Qiao Nan left, the focus of the old people could only be on him. I was climbing a tree and my pants were scraped off by a branch, I went to take a bath in the sea and my clothes were stolen, and I finally came back wearing only a pair of swimming trunks...... And so on and so forth.

In the end, don't forget to end up laughing - look, that little broken child has grown so big in the blink of an eye!

In the face of the comments of the grandmothers, Xu Wei nodded obediently, but he could only smile on his face, and his heart ......

What made him even more indignant was that he was always the one who was injured in the end in the trouble with Qiao Nan?

When she went to Qiao's shop to eat wontons, Qiao Lin kept reading the newspaper, and whenever she saw Kaka, she kissed him affectionately, as if she had forgotten all about his marriage.

Xu Wei had the intention to tease her: "You said that Kaka was a virgin all the time before she got married?"

Jolene was very proud: "Well, he is a devout Christian, he must be chaste before marriage, he has been dating his wife for three years, and he has never crossed the line, this kind of man is really rare!"

Xu Wei said ill-intentionedly: "Then it's bad, after he gets married, he will definitely be unstable, he will slip at every turn, and he will no longer be able to pass people with the ball!"

Jolene blinked her eyes wide, puzzled, "Why?"

Xu Wei smiled mysteriously, drank the soup, wiped his mouth and ran away. Qiao Lin was very puzzled, just as her father came out to serve the food, she asked, "Dad, why is it unstable and slipping after getting married?"

Qiao Jianjun hurriedly covered his daughter's mouth, but the other uncles who ate laughed. Qiao Jianjun reprimanded: "Where did you hear these meaty words?"

Jolene didn't speak, and an uncle said, "That kid just said." ”

Qiao Jianjun was so angry that his hands itched: "Let's see if he dares to come again! I'll break his leg if I come again!"

Qiao Lin originally planned to ask Sun Ruiyang what this sentence meant, but looking at everyone's reactions, she knew that this should not be a good word, so she had to bury this mystery in her heart, and it was not solved until several years later, and she couldn't help but secretly scold Xu Wei for being an old driver.

Although the family is connected to the Internet, except for contacting her brother and sister, Jolene has almost no opportunity to access the Internet at home. Last time, Sun Ruiyang said that his brother built a server by himself, which can play games on up to ten computers. Although she always quarrels with her brother, she has to admire that her brother is a very powerful person, and if he is at home, he may be able to find a good way to let her surf the Internet.

But Jolene is a backbone person, she has sworn that she will not send her brother another message until he takes the initiative to contact her, otherwise she will be a puppy. She doesn't believe that she can't cure her brother, how can he be more ruthless than the domineering presidents played in the TV series? Sending him a message is a very self-respecting thing, so she won't do it anymore.

When Qiao Lin was angry with her brother, Qiao Nan encountered a crisis. At that time, while he was immersed in the dream of his first love, he experienced the first school-wide review in his life.

As the model class leader of the whole school, the people sitting below really couldn't think of what kind of reason could make Qiao Nan accept such a serious punishment?

"On the night of December 24, I ignored the school rules and discipline and organized my classmates to play games in the middle of the night, which caused an extremely bad impact. This is the second time he has been arrested for the same reason, after being caught playing games last semester. Falling twice in the same place and in the same way, I felt that my skill was not up to par and that I had failed to live up to the trust placed in me by my comrades...... I realized my mistake and did the following reflection:

First, the nature of gathering people to play games in the middle of the night is bad, and I will never do it again in the future;

Second, his technical level is limited, and the server he built was found to be picketed, which is not proficient. Students should also pay attention to the fact that the server they build must be hidden in the background, otherwise it will be easy to be discovered. In the future, I will work harder to learn professional knowledge and improve the scientific and technological level of our army;

Third, I was too involved in the game, and I didn't even have a sense of detection, and the picket didn't notice until I walked in front of me. This fully exposes my weakness of not having a strong sense of detection and easily letting my guard down. In the future, I will definitely pay attention to improving my military quality......"

Before Qiao Nan finished reading, the audience was already laughing. Qiao Nan cleared his throat and said solemnly, "I'm doing an examination, serious! what's so funny." ”

The laughter in the audience was even louder.

Qiao Nan hesitated to put away the review, and looked at the instructor helplessly and helplessly.

The instructor's face was gloomy, and he picked up the microphone and said: "Qiao Nan has seriously violated discipline, 5 points will be deducted for daily behavior, and 3 points will be deducted for other participants." I hope everyone can realize the seriousness of this matter and not repeat it in the future!"

Qiao Nan gritted her teeth, made herself look cool, and didn't feel uncomfortable for this little bit.

In fact, who can be blamed for this? I don't blame my roommate for pouting, but I blame him for his own itchy hands. And boys, young and vigorous, it is inevitable to do some brainless things, or what to brag about when he is old? He didn't take the matter of being arrested to heart.

Moreover, several leaders of the military academy knew about him, and the white-haired vice principal had commented on him in front of many instructors: "Look at this soldier, he looks kind-hearted, but in fact, this brain is very naughty! These bones on his body are as skinned as shrimp in a frying pan, and if it weren't for this obedient skin bag, he would have jumped up and down a long time ago!

Qiao Nan seriously doubted that this old man who spoke the Sichuan dialect was engaged in literary and artistic creation before, and he used such a lot of words. He was very unconvinced by the word "kind eyebrows and kind eyes", but the old man commented on him so, so he had to continue to smile kindly.

Fortunately, the old man saw that he was well-behaved, and said: "You also know that too well-behaved soldiers can't do it, and too stubborn ones can't do it, like him is the best seedling, you have to cultivate it well!"

The instructors thought so deeply and vowed to polish Qiao Nan's piece of jade. These mistakes made by Qiao Nan can be big or small, and the instructors also understand - young people, there are always times when the blood and qi are uncontrollable, and the matter of playing games is really not very serious, at least it is much more worry-free than those who fight and climb over the wall in the middle of the night.

After Qiao Nan finished the inspection, his roommate, a Tibetan boy, Tsering, came up and said in Tibetan-flavored Mandarin: "I told you a long time ago, don't play games!

Qiao Nan asked solemnly: "If the revolution fails once, you won't do it?"

Tsering shook his head decisively.

Qiao Nan was confident: "I was caught playing the game once, and I won't play anymore?"

Tsering suddenly realized - the squad leader made a lot of sense!

Qiao Nan raised his eyebrows in a low-key manner and said, "Failure is the mother of success, and they won't be able to catch me next time." ”

Tsering laughed out with a mouthful of big white teeth: "Sure enough, it's the squad leader, it's amazing!"

Just like in high school, Qiao Nan was not the class president at first. In high school, he helped his classmates to buy steamed buns on behalf of his classmates without complaint, and never fooled them when he usually lectured on the topic, and finally impressed his classmates with his kindness and sincerity, and stood out in the voting election in the first semester of high school, which started his own road as class president, and continued to be a graduate. Until now, he still pulled up the QQ group of the first class of the experiment, but he usually can't get on the Internet, and he is all warm-hearted gold.

Before going to college, he thought that his score was not low, but later he learned that many people in the same major came to this military school with a score that could go to Qingbei to recover, and the superiority in grades disappeared in an instant; later, Qiao Nan learned that sleeping on his top bunk was the grandson of a major general of a certain military region, and the roommate diagonally opposite was the son of a certain bureau chief in Beijing.

But even so, will Qiao Nan not feel inferior? He was born in the market, grew up in the ordinary, and has nothing to do except be diligent. So Qiao Nan silently reined in his edge, he should learn to learn, and he should train and train. After a while, he didn't know why, his comrades-in-arms seemed to like to surround him, in addition to asking for advice, they also liked to play games with him.

Don't dare to say anything else, Qiao Nan is still very confident in playing games, after all, he has been the child king of Jixianglu since he was a child, and what he is best at is playing with others.

In this way, Qiao Nan won the trust of his comrades-in-arms little by little. The students of the military academy are all enthusiastic young men, and it is inevitable that there will be conflicts after a long time. The previous squad leader had a hot temper and caused public anger several times, and later had to re-elect, and Qiao Nan was elected again with his good popularity and high votes. Good popularity seems to be born and inherited.

After becoming the class president, he no longer yelled at his classmates who were not well organized in housekeeping, but patiently taught them to fold. After all, his father was a soldier, and he had always asked him to fold tofu cubes since he was a child; Qiao Nan would not jump in a hurry because his comrades-in-arms were not singing loudly, he would only be so anxious that he would squat on the ground with his head in his hands, making his comrades-in-arms desperately hold back laughter, embarrassed to disobey discipline.

During the period when Qiao Nan was the class leader, the class was calm, and all the results were ranked first, and Qiao Nan naturally contributed a lot. He told himself again and again that he Qiao Nan was no worse than anyone else, his grades could definitely rank in the top three in his major, and his military quality was among the best in the same batch, if it was really distributed according to his personal ability, then he should be free to choose where he wanted to go.

But where there are people, there will be competition, and where there is competition, there will be contradictions. Qiao Nan's performance now does not necessarily mean that he has a good future in the future. After entering his junior year, his pressure increased significantly. The professional courses have become more difficult, and the training has become much more demanding than before. There are eight people in their dormitory, some are the third generation of the red who is rooted, some are the second generation of officials in the Gaomen compound in the capital, and some are the training objects of the backbone plan of ethnic minorities, it seems that everyone is not worried about the way out, only Qiao Nan will be anxious about the future.

He knew that a teenager like him, who had no background and came from an ordinary background, would most likely be assigned to these remote and difficult places in New Zealand. When he first put pen to paper, he was full of enthusiasm, and two and a half years have passed, and he thinks that the blood on his body has not cooled. If he is willing to go to a remote place to squander his blood, it is nothing, but if he is really assigned to a place that his classmates disdain to go, he will not be reconciled.

For him, being caught playing games twice became a "stain" on his military school career. Fortunately, he was thick-skinned and didn't go to his heart. Just walked to the crossroads of his life, thinking of those stupid deaths in the past, Qiao Nan was very worried, so much so that he tossed and turned at night - I hope those past events will not affect him.

Qiao Nan never told his family about these worries, and he would write to tell her who was far away in Beijing. She is the one who knows his mind best, and every time he receives a letter from her, he feels comfortable physically and mentally, and can't wait to see her and hug her.
