Chapter 86
Tie Dan'er hurriedly ran to the guard room, and after checking in, he took a big package from the soldier on duty.
"Thank you, comrade!" Carrying a package of some weights, Tie Dan'er happily thanked the soldier on duty.
"You're welcome, serve the majority of comrades-in-arms! Comrade, your family really has nothing to say to you! "The soldier on duty is also a recruit about the same age as Tie Dan'er, watching Tie Dan'er carry the things sent from home, not to mention how envious he is.
"Well, my mom and dad are good to me. Goodbye, comrade! After straightening his chest and saluting the other party, Tie Dan'er walked to the dormitory a little impatiently with his things.
"Wang Weidong? Hey, you good boy, this is another thing sent from home? Just as Tie Dan'er was happily walking from the gate to the dormitory with the package, a thick voice suddenly sounded behind him.
"Company commander! Salute! Report to the company commander, it's a letter from home. Seeing that it was Hao Hechang, the company commander of the Red First Company, Tie Dan'er hurriedly put down his things and saluted.
"After the ceremony, take a break! You kid, let's talk about it, from the time you came to the army to the present, it's good that others can receive a letter from home, hey, you kid is good, collect things one after another, be careful to cause public outrage! However, your mother's pickles taste good, how about it? This time again, right? "Hao Hechang, who is 38 years old this year, is the company commander of the Red First Company, he has been in the army for more than 20 years since he joined the army at the age of 16, and his feelings for the troops, for new recruits like Tie Dan'er and high-quality recruits, are even more affectionate and approachable, so he mingles with the soldiers below, and the feelings are good, and everyone obeys him.
"Hey...... Company commander, I, I, I'll take a look, my mother, my mother can get those things. Hearing the company commander say this, Tie Dan'er hurriedly wanted to open the package and look for pickles. He remembered that the last time he wrote back, he mentioned that the company commander's daughter-in-law liked their pickles, and with that woman's way of doing things, she must have sent it this time.
"Okay, okay, you can take it back quickly, in public, I'm afraid you won't go back after opening this package!" Seeing that Wang Weidong was about to open the package, Hao Hechang hurriedly stopped it, at this time, there were people coming and going on the way, and the people in the army were almost hungry wolves, smelling a little fishy, could they still stay? Isn't he a sinner?
"Hey...... The company commander, I'll go back first, and I'll send the things to my sister-in-law. Tie Dan'er also understood what their company commander meant, and he smirked twice and ran away with his things first.
"Hey...... This kid, good, good. Hao Hechang saw that Wang Weidong understood what he meant, and nodded with satisfaction.
Although the troops demanded that they should not take a stitch or a thread from the people, and that they could not accept a grain or grain from the soldiers, they also had families and rooms, and their wages alone were just enough for their families to live on. Therefore, in private, the life of a company-level cadre like them is very difficult, his family is better, at least his daughter-in-law is a diligent person, she has planted two plots of land in the family area, and the usual vegetables can be solved by herself, but it is still difficult to eat something like pickles. The last time I was able to receive pickles from Wang Weidong, to be honest, Hao Hechang was also quite unexpected, and now the family is not rich, not to mention that the current people's thoughts are relatively simple and simple, and there are not so many twists and turns. At the beginning, he was also ambivalent about Wang Weidong's behavior, hating him for being so sophisticated, and greedy for the taste of pickles, and in the end, if he didn't think that the kid himself was at the top of his grades, he wouldn't dare to accept it.
"Damn, your kid is finally back, hurry up and open it to see, what did your mother send you again this time? Will there be jerky, like last time? Hurry up and open it quickly. As soon as Tie Dan'er walked into the dormitory, he was caught by Liu Li'an, who had been waiting for a long time.
"Slow down, slow down, don't tear the bag up. Be quiet, are you trying to bring in everyone else in the class, and then we won't be able to eat at all? Seeing Liu Li'an's more anxious and impatient appearance than himself, Tie Dan'er was worried about his package. The things I sent last time, because of this girl's loud voice, I didn't leave much left, and if it was still like this this time, he would have to beat him.
"What is this? Yo, Weidong, you are really your mother's own son, every time the package is sent, there are delicious foods, this time in addition to the big bag of jerky and sweet potato fries, there is such a big bag of walnuts, damn, they are all my favorite food. Weidong, you said that if I were your mother and son, I would be willing to send you any delicious food, and I envy me to death. Hey, what's in this bag? Clothes? Don't we all have to send clothes or something, why do you still send them from home? Liu Li'an didn't see anything outside, and when he opened the package, he took out the same thing, and commented while returning it.
"You bring it to me, I like to wear it made at home, can you handle it? Also, you can't open a few bottles, it's pickles, and it won't taste good if you open them all and see the wind and smell away. Seeing Liu Li'an take out a cloth bag, Tie Dan'er knew that it must be the underwear and socks and insoles that the woman made for herself, he didn't want Liu Li'an to know about such a private thing, so he hurriedly grabbed it with one hand and put it in his closet.
"Weidong, you tell me the truth, did your kid write back to ask for these things? The last time I sent it and the one I sent it this time, in the average person's home, it can be more than what I eat in a year. I know that no family has such a rich life now, let alone in the countryside! Wei Dong, if this is the case, the elder brother will criticize you. You said that we need to eat and wear in the army, which is much better than the life of our family, don't you discredit our soldiers? Looking at so many things, Liu Li'an really didn't feel good in his heart. It's not that he is really jealous that Wang Weidong has a family to worry about or something, but he thinks that a person from a rural area will definitely not be able to take out so many things, even an official eunuch like him can't take it out, so he is worried that Wang Weidong, this kid, will embarrass his family for himself.
"Then don't eat it, although my family is rural, my grandfather is an old revolutionary, and the state has a allowance every month; My father is the village head, oh, now my father has gone to work in the county revolutionary committee, my mother, my mother can weave cloth to make clothes, she helps others weave cloth, others give it, and the younger brothers and sisters in the family are still young. And my aunt and uncle are in the commune, and there is no problem with the rations, so there will be something to send. Last time, I wrote back to ask them not to send it, and my mother was worried that I wouldn't eat well, so she made jerky and pickles and sent them over. Tie Dan'er took out the things that Liu Li'an had just opened and sorted them into a few packs and distributed them to everyone for a while, while explaining to Liu Li'an where the things came from.
"Who said I won't eat it, I'll order more jerky. Weidong, don't say it, these things in your house taste so good, I really envy you for having such a good mother. If I had such things at home, my mother wouldn't be happy to send them to me. I'm going to make food for my dad and my sister every day. Liu Li'an will not be polite, seeing Tie Dan'er divide the things, he knew that those were for everyone to eat, so he grabbed a bag of the largest, and prepared to keep himself alone from time to time to beat his teeth.
"My mom, my mom is really nice to me." Hearing Liu Li'an's words, Tie Dan'er paused, and then continued to pack up his things as if nothing happened, but he thought of his home and the people in his family, especially that woman. Not to mention, after being in the army for so many months, what he thinks about most is not his father, not his grandfather who is obedient to him, nor the dog baby who always opposes him, but the woman he doesn't want to admit but must admit.
When he was at home, the woman taught him a lot of things and the principles of being a human being. When he came to the army, he did not cower and be petty like other comrades-in-arms from the countryside, nor did he look at no one because of a little advantage like the urban soldiers, and he impulsively caused trouble; Maintain a modest and positive heart, work hard to express himself, think more about things, empathize with problems, sure enough, he is not only valued by the leader because of his good personal quality, but also because he is more mature than others in dealing with people, and some things leaders will think of him as a recruit, and because he often receives things sent from home, and has a good relationship with his comrades.
When I wrote back for the first time, I said that the hair on the army was as big as clothes and pants to toothpaste and toothbrushes, and I also said that the training intensity of the troops was high, and the clothes and shoes were soaked after training every day. His original intention was to report to his family about his life in the army, but he didn't expect the woman to say that the clothes and pants issued by the army do not absorb sweat, especially underwear, the fabric is rough and easy to wear out the skin, so he said that he would make some underwear for himself, but he didn't expect to send it this time. If he remembered correctly, the woman's belly should have been six or seven months old, and she didn't know if it was uncomfortable or uncomfortable when she had such a big belly, and she didn't know if she would add a younger brother or a younger sister to herself. And she makes these things for herself with a big belly......
It can be seen that that woman is really good to him and thinks about him everywhere!
