Chapter 259: It's not easy

Chapter 259 is not good

A heavy snowfall can stop a lot of work, but more work will not be stopped by this first snowfall. For the headquarters compound, the snow did not cause any impact except for causing some trouble for the training of the guard company. Even the guard company has not changed in any way because of this heavy snowfall, and the training still has to be trained. At the same time as the training, the veterans' discharge work is also carried out in an orderly manner.

In the past, during this period, Cheng Zhichao and Zhao Jiyong went to the guard company much more often than usual. After all, they are both young people, and the two of them have special identities, whether they are true or false, and they have become good friends with many soldiers of the guards and even the guards. Over time, recruits will also become veterans, and every time a veteran is discharged, there will be soldiers they know well who will be discharged home.

For these veterans who have returned home from the army, although the soldier's career in the guard company will leave them with lifelong memories, after they are discharged from the army, there is basically no possibility of returning to the old army to see it. Once parting, it means that the world is separated, and you will never see each other again for the rest of your life, in this case, of course, you have to say goodbye.

But this time, after Cheng Zhichao returned to the compound, he came to the door of the guard company, but he didn't want to go in. Speaking from his heart, although the old man had already confessed to him for a long time, psychologically, he was not ready to leave Fang Xiaochen to serve as a soldier in the army. Especially after Shan Weiqing handed over the key to the house, he didn't want to leave.

The gate of the guard company is in front of it, and Lao Jiang's office is not far away, so for others, this place may be heavily guarded. But for Cheng Zhichao and Zhao Jiyong, this place is their second home. But at this time, he would rather go back to the first home than the second. Just because I was afraid of hearing the news I least wanted to hear from this second home.

Although he was in the courtyard of the headquarters, there was also a sentry at the door of the guard company, and the people standing guard at the gate also knew Cheng Zhichao, and when they saw him hesitating at the gate, they secretly wondered in their hearts. One of them was more familiar with Cheng Zhichao, stared at him for more than ten minutes, and didn't see him enter the door, so he was not wondering, but anxious. I didn't want to get down from my post directly, and walked in front of Cheng Zhichao: "Why don't you go in?" ”

"Go in? Ah, yes, go in, get in right away. Is Lao Jiang here? ”

"I'm just on the job, and I don't know if he's there, but I didn't see him out. Are you here for him or for Xiao Luo? ”

"Xiao Luo?" Cheng Zhichao was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that Xiao Luo was a soldier in the guard company, and couldn't help frowning: "He's leaving this year?" ”

"I heard that there seems to be one of him this year, and the instructor has already talked to him."

"Isn't he only two years old? Why are you going to leave so soon? I heard Lao Jiang say that Xiao Luo is doing a good job, and it is very likely that he will sign a non-commissioned officer. ”

"It's him who wants to leave, it seems that there is something going on at home, I don't know, if you want to find him, you have to do your best, you will have to eat the veterans' meal soon, at most a few months, they veterans will have to leave the team, and when the time comes, you want to see them again, but it will not be easy."

Cheng Zhichao knows the rules of veterans' meals, which are nothing more than the meals that some units specially prepare for veterans who are about to retire when veterans are discharged, which is higher than the standards of other soldiers. The purpose of this is, on the one hand, to show respect for these veterans who have dedicated themselves to national defense, and on the other hand, to appease those veterans, lest they relax themselves because they are about to be discharged from the army, so that they can do something to vent their grievances. Basically, after eating a veteran's meal for a month, it means that the veteran's military career is over.

But the one who came down from the sentry didn't expect that this time Cheng Zhichao made a special trip back to the compound from school, not because he cared about his buddy's feelings, but because he cared about his future. not only told Cheng Zhichao the news that Xiao Luo was leaving, but also very enthusiastically pointed out Xiao Luo's current location to Cheng Zhichao.

Cheng Zhichao nodded silently, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, took a long breath, and walked quickly to Lao Jiang's office. The soldier saw that he went directly to Lao Jiang's office, instead of following the direction he pointed out to find Xiao Luo, he felt slightly strange, scratched the back of his head, and returned to the sentry post, standing there straight.

When the veteran was discharged, as the highest-ranking officer in the guard company, although Lao Jiang was an idle position, he also had a lot of work to do. When Cheng Zhichao arrived at his office, this benevolent brother was burying his head in a pile of essays, and he was very busy. After seeing Cheng Zhichao, he just raised his head: "Coming?" Then he lowered his head and went about his work. ,

Cheng Zhichao hummed, sat opposite him, picked up a newspaper and flipped through it. I was just thinking about how to open my mouth to talk to Lao Jiang, but I didn't read a word about the content of the newspaper.

After a while, Lao Jiang took the initiative to talk to him: "Isn't there a class in your school today?" Why are you so idle? ”

"I don't have a lot of classes today, so I'll come back and have a look."

Lao Jiang had obviously dealt with almost the work at hand, and it was much easier, and he smiled: "Come back and take a look?" Have you seen Director Shan? ”

"I haven't been home yet."

"Hehe, it seems that in your kid's heart, I am more important than your old position. Just come back and take a look, come to me at the first stop, aren't you afraid that Director Shan will interrupt you if he knows about this? ”

Cheng Zhichao said: "The so-called teacher for one day and father for life, how could my mother be such a reasonable person, how could she eat your old man's vinegar?" ”

"Don't give me a sloppy eye there." Lao Jiang's face sank: "Is it that this year's conscription work has begun, and you kid has grass growing in his heart?" ”

Jiang is still old and spicy, and before he could say a few words, Lao Jiang actually saw through the little Jiujiu in his heart. Cheng Zhichao secretly praised in his heart, Suo XΓ¬ng opened the skylight and said bright words, came to Lao Jiang, reached out and took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket, smiled and handed one to Lao Jiang's mouth: "Uncle Jiang, come and shoot." ”

Lao Jiang turned his head to the side, evaded his courtesy, took the cigarette from Cheng Zhichao's hand, and looked at it twice: "Yo, when did you learn to smoke too?" ”

"I didn't smoke it, I bought it specifically to honor your old man, I don't know if it's true or not, order it, try the real or fake."

Lao Jiang glared at him, took the cigarette case in his hand, looked at the sun, and threw it in the drawer, signaling Cheng Zhichao not to try so hard to please himself, just sit there with his share.

After Cheng Zhichao sat down, Lao Jiang sighed and said, "As soon as you entered the door, I could see the purpose of your coming from the expression on your face." To be honest, these things were arranged by Chief of Staff Cheng and Vice Minister Zhao, and I was not involved at all. Now that Chief of Staff Cheng has gone to Beijing, Vice Minister Zhao can't see him day by day, and I don't know if you and Zhao Jiyong will leave at the end of this year. ”

Cheng Zhichao didn't expect Lao Jiang to pick himself up with a word, and couldn't help but say anxiously: "Uncle Jiang, you are too unkind, the entire headquarters knows that the three of you have gone the closest, and I can't talk about the two old men, but if you want to say that you can't receive any rumors, I don't believe it if you kill me." ”

"Believe it or not, I really don't know. In this way, in order to be worthy of the cigarettes you bought for dozens of yuan, I will help you inquire, you go back first to listen to the letter, and I will sue you when there is news. ”

………………………………………………………………………………………………

"Damn Lao Jiang, I've been a master for more than ten years, and I didn't even tell him about this, Lao Tzu bought him cigarettes for dozens of yuan." Cheng Zhichao, who returned home, sat on the sofa and couldn't help but scold.

touched a nose of ash at Lao Jiang's place, but he couldn't have a seizure, Young Master Cheng was so angry that he didn't even see Xiao Luo, let alone go home, and returned directly to his residence. Anyway, now Shan Weiqing is also at work, Cheng Weiguo is not at home, and when he returns home, he can only see civil servants, and he can't see the two old ones, so it doesn't matter if he goes back or not.

Liu Xin and Fang Xiaochen had already come back from the store, and they were waiting for him to go home with a meal ready, but they didn't expect Young Master Cheng to come home and just touch the sofa with his buttocks. Both women were Bing Xue smart, and they couldn't help but laugh if they didn't have to think about it to know what he was referring to.

After Cheng Zhichao finished scolding Lao Jiang, he still felt aggrieved in his heart, and glared at Fang Xiaochen: "Isn't it funny?" ”

The smile on Fang Xiaochen's face was put away, but there was still a smile in his eyes: "It's not funny." ”

"If it's not funny, why are you two laughing so happily?"

"It's because it's not funny, so the two of us have to laugh, at least it's funny. By the way, what kind of cigarettes did you buy for Lao Jiang? It's a box of dozens of dollars, which sounds good. ”

"Nonsense, I went to ask people about the news, of course I have to buy good cigarettes, the money is huā, but what kind of cigarettes are, I really don't remember."

"Look at your little bit of interest, you bought a cigarette for someone, and you don't even remember any cigarettes, no wonder you can't find out the news." ,

"If I knew this was going to happen, I should have taken you with me. Even if Lao Jiang doesn't give me face, I have to give you Miss Fang some face. ”

"I don't have that much face." Fang Xiaochen walked up to him, sat down next to him, and said casually: "Besides, even if you know the result, what can you do?" Can it still change the result? ”

"Even if you can't change the result, it's still better than hanging up and down now, and your heart is not strong at all." Cheng Zhichao sighed: "If the old man gives me a letter, I can also make arrangements as soon as possible." ”

Liu Xin put the rice in the rice bowl of the three people on the table, wiped his hands with an apron, and said: "If you want me to say that you are worrying about nothing, our sisters' business is now on track, and things on Mo Tiejun's side have also been settled." As for your pillar brother, there are no big problems, what is there to arrange? ”

"Having said that, but as soon as I leave, it will be a minimum of two years, and if I don't arrange it, I will never have a bottom in my heart."

"Okay, I know that your Young Master Cheng takes care of his family and is responsible, okay? But no matter how much you take care of your family, no matter how responsible you are, you always have to eat, let's eat. Liu Xin took off her apron and hung it on the kitchen shelf, sat down at the dining table, stretched out her chopsticks to pick up a few grains of rice and chewed it slowly. From time to time, he raised his head to look at the two on the sofa, with an indifferent face.

She knew very well in her heart that the reason why Cheng Zhichao was so uneasy was not because of her, but more because she was reluctant to Fang Xiaochen. This man with no conscience, even if he goes to the edge of the sky, he will always remember Fang Xiaochen more than he remembers himself. For some reason, Liu Xin suddenly remembered the scene with Cheng Zhichao outside the police station that day, and his body instantly warmed up, and he couldn't help but twist his body a few times.

……………………………………………………………………………………………………

For many days, Cheng Zhichao returned to the headquarters to find Lao Jiang several times, and each time he asked Lao Jiang to send him back with just a few words. This is not the most depressing, what makes Cheng Zhichao most depressed is that every time Lao Jiang sends him for almost no reason, he asks him to go back and wait for the letter.

If it was in normal times, Cheng Zhichao wouldn't mind going back to listen to the letter, but now that his eyebrows are burning, Cheng Zhichao is already so anxious that his mouth is full of foams, and if he waits for the letter, it will really kill him.

There was no way, Cheng Zhichao had no choice but to dial Zhao Jiyong's phone again, intending to ask him what news he had over there.

Zhao Jiyong's voice didn't sound as bright as before, and he said in a hoarse voice as if he had a serious cold: "Brother, I won't tell you, I haven't slept well these days." I called home a few times and wanted to ask our old man, but every time I asked the old man to give him a lecture, and after a few times, I didn't dare to ask again. ”

"Why do you say that our two old men are so old and so unreliable?"

"I've figured it out now, whether he's reliable or not, anyway, stretching out his head and shrinking his head is also a knife, they can toss as much as they want. It doesn't matter if you can't walk or not. I advise you not to overthink it. ”

Cheng Zhichao smiled bitterly, he wanted to think about it like Zhao Jiyong, but every time he returned home, Fang Xiaochen seemed to feel that the two of them were about to be separated. And the resentment that flowed out of his eyes from time to time almost made Master Cheng's entire psychological defense line completely collapse.

Zhao Jiyong has played with him since he was a child, and he can be described as his confidant. Hearing his series of long sighs, you don't need to ask to know what is in his heart. But he was also a mud bodhisattva crossing the river in this matter, so he had to accompany him and sigh for a while. Finally, he said: "Actually, I think there is no news now, which should be considered the best news." ”

"Why?" Cheng Zhichao is now like a person who has fallen into the water, and if he catches a straw, he will also take it as a life-saver, what he wants to hear most is good news, and what he rejects the most is bad news. As soon as he heard Zhao Jiyong say that there was no news now, it should be the best news, his eyes lit up immediately, and he couldn't wait to ask.

"You think, we both know the procedures for being a soldier, under normal circumstances, it is registration, physical examination, and political examination, and after these three levels are passed, the next step is a home visit, and then we can determine whether we can go. Let's leave this level at that. But until now, we haven't been notified to go for a physical examination, isn't this good news? ”,

Cheng Zhichao faintly felt in his heart that things might not be as simple as Zhao Jiyong said, with the energy of the old man, arranging a few backdoor soldiers who did not follow the normal procedures, it was not as simple as gasping? But people are like this, knowing that things will not be so simple, but once the matter is not confirmed by his own mouth, if he is asked to make a choice between truth and illusion, he will not hesitate to choose to deceive others and himself.

Cheng Zhichao is like this, after listening to Zhao Jiyong's words, he forced himself to nod in agreement. I found countless excuses in my heart to give myself a relief pill, and forcibly suppressed the only truth, that is, the old man's energy problem, in the deepest part of my brain and refused to accept it, and my mood was much more relaxed. ended the call with Zhao Jiyong with a smile.

The next time, it's time to eat, it's time to go to class, and at home, there are two beautiful women to accompany you. Needless to say, Fang Xiaochen is extremely empathetic these days, and Liu Xin rarely ridicules him anymore, and Cheng Zhichao's heart has become much quieter. In school, there are beautiful women in the class who are so meticulous that they can almost be said to have pervasive attention, which is enough to make him laugh proudly. In short, as long as no one mentions the word "conscription", for almost a whole day, Master Cheng's mood is quite good.

In addition to Xuan Zhihan's bad mood some time ago, Cheng Zhichao's mood also affected her to some extent, and the whole person looked quite haggard. Now Cheng Zhichao's mood is much better, Xuan Zhihan's psychological pressure is much less, and a smile gradually appears on his face. The idea in her heart is also very simple, that is, there are still more than two years, she doesn't believe that more than two years, coupled with her own connotation, it is absolutely impossible to fight Fang Xiaochen.

As a student leader, making a complete plan is an essential job, and it is also one of the skills to learn. Xuan Zhihan has special experience in this aspect, in addition to formulating the school's work plan, he also perfected how to use the time of the past two years to carry out and Cheng Zhichao's further development plan, which is so meticulous that it is basically implemented step by step on a weekly basis.

The reason why she is so meticulous is because she knows very well the relationship between Cheng Zhichao and Fang Xiaochen, and she also knows that once Cheng Zhichao graduates, the marriage between him and Fang Xiaochen will be put on the agenda.

It's just that she never dreamed that human calculations are always inferior to heaven, and plans are never as fast as changes.

The change came quite suddenly, and suddenly when the door of the classroom was pushed open, when she saw the people who came in and what they did, she was already so shocked that Cheng DΓΉ didn't react at all.
