"Don't be angry, old man, it's not good for you! You're dizzy and headache when you're angry; Calm your anger! Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year! You drive away your son and daughter-in-law, and they will come back? Granny Luo was also in tears, and the family was dragged down by her granddaughter.

"Let them go, on the first day of the new year, you will go to someone's house to find bad luck, can people have a good face for you? What's not to think about, just thinking about other people's Jiahui boy, he will only become more and more promising; He doesn't have long eyes, and he comes to the door to say goodbye with a dead face, just like us Linlin, it's not that I, the master, dislike her, it's that she is too unreliable. Let's go! We will celebrate the New Year quietly, and tomorrow we will meet Sancheng at Uncle Chen's house, and apologize to others, this is what our family did wrong! ”

Saddened and disappointed, Luo Dade bent down and went to the house.

Granny Luo could only shake her head and sigh.

......

Before dawn on the second day, Chu Tianyi and Lei Ce got up to wash; By the way, Song Jiahui also called up.

The three of them freshened up and put on their down jackets; Chu Tianyi handed the tonic that she took out to Song Jiahui to hold, and she took her husband's arm and came all the way to Chen's house.

The Chen family was already lit up early in the morning, and the children and grandchildren of the Chen family were busy in the courtyard.

"Brother, don't just be busy; When your uncle and them come, you remember to hand over the gift money with your uncle. Before entering the door, Chu Tianyi explained.

Lei Ze nodded amusedly, "Okay, I remember." ”

Song Jiahui had already walked into Chen's house with supplements, "Uncle Chen, Aunt Chen, Second Uncle Chen, Second Aunt Chen; The eldest brother of the Chen family, the second brother, the third brother, the fourth brother, and the little sister of the Chen family, you are busy! ”

"Yo, Jiahui, why did you and your cousin and sister-in-law come here so early?" Uncle Chen asked with a smile, "Lei Ze, you and your daughter-in-law find a place to sit by yourself, and there are stools in the house." ”

"Uncle Chen, we're here to help; If there's anything you need to do, just tell us and my dad will come over in a moment. Song Jiahui handed him the supplements, "These things were given to the grandfather by my cousin and sister-in-law, let the grandfather eat some every day; Nourishing the body, the effect is very good. ”

"Come on, come on! Bring some things, you sit down for a while; We're just picking up chickens, ducks, fish, and geese right now, and there's nothing we need you to do. Uncle Chen took the things and handed them to the daughter-in-law next to him, "Mother, you take Miss Chu to sit in the house for a while; It's cold outside, and it's very cold. ”

"Okay." Aunt Chen smiled and took Chu Tianyi's hand, "Girl Chu, you haven't been back for many years, and you came to visit the New Year yesterday in a hurry; I didn't even take a good look at you, so let's go, go in and sit down with my aunt. There was a fire burning in the kitchen, and it was warm. ”

Chu Tianyi shook his head and said with a smile: "Aunt Chen, you don't need to enter the house; We're here to help, not to play, and I can't do the heavy lifting, but the lighter guys can do it. Like chopping vegetables, cutting meat, or whatever, I can do it. ”

Aunt Chen smiled and looked at the housekeeper.

Uncle Chen smiled and nodded, "Since Miss Chu said so, you can take her to the side!" We worked with Lei Ze and Jiahui to pick up the meat. ”

"Okay." Aunt Chen took her hand and left.

Seeing that his wife was gone, Lei Ce quickly took off his down jacket and wore a turtleneck, "Uncle, I'll help you." "When his daughter-in-law is around, he always reminds him to wear more, he doesn't want to blow his wife's heart; He also wears thick clothes, in fact, he is not afraid of the cold at all.

"Wait, wait. Tie the apron first, and bring the sleeve sleeves with you; Otherwise, you will get dirty on your body, and it will be difficult to wash your clothes with oily things. Uncle Chen turned his head and shouted to his brother, "Second brother, take out three pairs of aprons and sleeves prepared in the house; Let Lei Ze, Chu Yatou and Jiahui all wear it. ”

Second Uncle Chen turned his head to Song Jiahui with a smile and said, "The three of you came too early, and the people they helped haven't come yet!" Wait! I'll go and get you aprons and sleeves. He turned around and went inside.

After a moment's effort, Second Uncle Chen walked out with an apron and sleeve covers, and first gave Chu Tianyi a pair, "Girl Chu, you tie the apron, your clothes are so beautiful; If it gets dirty, it's a pity. ”

"Alas, thank you, Second Uncle Chen." Chu Tianyi took it and tied it, and put on the sleeve again; thanked him again, and then sat down again to talk with Aunt Chen and them, cutting meat and vegetables.

Second Uncle Chen handed the remaining two sleeves and aprons to the Lei Ze brothers, "You put them on, don't get dirty; The water is cold in winter! If you can't stand it, go to the kitchen and scoop some hot water to wash. ”

"We know, Second Uncle Chen is busy! Don't delay your work for us. Song Jiahui nodded, took two pairs of aprons and sleeves, and handed one to Lei Ce.

The two of them put on aprons, sleeves, walked to the well, and squatted on the ground with the Chen family to wash chickens, ducks, fish and geese.

Nowadays, as long as the life is slightly better, the farmers will dig a well at home or nearby to facilitate the use of water.

The Chen family drilled a well in their yard, and they usually had water without leaving home.

"Brother Lei Ze, how are you in the army now? Listen to your Uncle Sancheng, you are very good in the army. Uncle Chen's son, Chen Zezhong, who was in his twenties, squatted beside Lei Ce and asked.

Lei Ze smiled, "It's okay! ”

"Brother Lei Ze, tell us about it, what rank are you now?" Chen Zecheng listened to the eldest brother's question, and he also came up. He was followed by two brothers, Chen Zeren and Chen Zeyi, and they were eighteen. Nine to twenty-three years old.

"Colonel." Reitzer collected the poultry in his hand and replied to their words; There is no concealment in the reply, and there is no excessive information revealed.

The third eldest Chen Zeren and the fourth eldest Chen Zeyi smirked, looked at him and asked, "Brother Lei Ze, what ranks do you have in the army?" Can you tell us about it? Curious. ”

"What, you want to be a soldier?" Lei Ze raised his sword eyebrows.

"I have this idea, but my father and mother don't agree." Chen Zeren grinned, he really had this idea; Since there was a man in the village who was a soldier, many teenagers in the village wanted to join the army.

In addition, Lei Ze has been in the army for many years, and his body has become stronger and stronger, watching them stay in the countryside all day and night doing farm work; is tired and tired, and no one has a strong body.

"Hehe, then you should listen to Uncle Chen and Aunt Chen! In fact, there is not a place where everyone can stay in the army, and the daily training in it is more than the amount of farm work you usually do; In the months when some people go, they would sleep after training every night, and they couldn't even eat a hot meal. Reitzer picked something inconsequential and told them.

"Then Brother Leize, was this the case when you just joined the army?" Chen Zeren continued to ask curiously.

"Almost! After being dragged to the battlefield in Vietnam a year later, those days were even more difficult; I can't eat enough and don't have enough clothes, and I have to guard against enemy attacks every day, and sometimes I can't eat a full meal for several days. I can't sleep every day, I have to open my eyes to see the enemy's situation, like a soldier in the army now; Well fed and clothed, without enemy raids, the days were much better than we were then. But for ordinary people, entering the army is going to hell. ”

The amount of training is large, and the average person can't adapt to it in the short term.

Chen Zezhong's brothers listened very happily, "Brother Lei Ze, tell me about the battles you fought, okay?" I'm curious, what is it like on the battlefield? ”

"The battlefield is a rain of bullets, and every day there is the sound of gunfire in my ears, and the wind and rain come and go...... Actually, there's nothing to say, I didn't stay on the battlefield in Vietnam for many years, and in 78, I didn't come back with a limp! He was injured and retired. I haven't been on the battlefield since then, and fortunately, after I was injured and retired, it didn't take long for the Vietnam War to be over. "Retzer tried to say things as lightly as possible, but not a word about the secret was revealed.

"Brother Lei Ze, it turns out that your leg was injured on the battlefield! We always thought you were just injured in the army, and it looked like your leg was quite bad. ”

"That's right! Brother Letzer, tell us how your leg was injured at that time! ”

Lei Ze shook his head, "It's nothing, it's just that when I was covering the regimental headquarters, I was injured by a stray bullet; He was hit by an enemy bullet again, and that's why he was so badly wounded. ”

"Brother Reitzer, I also want to be a soldier; Do you think I can do it? "Chen Zeyi is about eighteen. Nine-year-old, grinning innocently, but those eyes were full of fire. Hot.

"It's not up to me to say this, first of all, you have to pass your father's level; Then you have to pass the checkpoints of the army inspection and political review, and then you can enter the army. Lei Ce shook his head and turned his head to look at Uncle Chen and Second Uncle Chen; Seeing that their eyes were also burning at him, he couldn't help but chuckle, every man has a battlefield in his heart, and that is their blood.

"Daddy and Mom will definitely not agree." Chen Zeyi closed his mouth dyingly.

Uncle Chen took out the internal organs of the poultry and teased: "Just like you, you still go to the army to be a soldier?" Don't go out and be embarrassed; It's good to stay at home! When you are old, marry a daughter-in-law like your eldest brother, and have a good wife and children hot kang. ”

"Dad, I know you also have a lot of yearning for the army; But you can't go, or you can let your son go! When my son has been in the army, he will come back and talk about the army. Brother Lei Zer didn't say anything in detail about what the troops were like just now, and they all came over at once. Chen Zeyi smiled innocently, but his words were flattering his father.

Uncle Chen shook his head, "You can't take care of yourself, and it's useless to be a soldier." ”

"Not necessarily, if you let me be a soldier, I will have a chance to go to war; When the time comes, I will also be a big hero on the battlefield and win glory for our family. ”

"Yo, you're still on the battlefield! Don't go to war and become a deserter. Second Uncle Chen also canceled his nephew on the side.

Lei Ze chuckled, "Now that the country has settled down, there is no battle to fight. ”

"Huh? Gone? So what am I going to be a soldier? Chen Zeyi raised his hand and wanted to scratch his head, but when he saw the smelly hand, he put it down in frustration; His face darkened, listless.

Co-authoring a soldier is to go to war.

"Then I won't go!"

Everyone laughed, and Chen Zeyi was blushed with laughter.
