Chapter 4 The Canned Turmoil
After a while, Yulan was brought to Instructor Lin with disheveled clothes and messy hair holding a large pile of cans.
"Say, who sent you?"
"Yes, yes, yesγγγγγγ" Yu Rong saw Instructor Lin's fierce and vicious face, and was so frightened that she couldn't speak.
"If you don't say it, I'll lock you up if you don't say it, and someone will come."
"Instructor Lin, her name is Yurong, and she is the maid of our family." Lu Yulin got up from the ground and hurriedly helped Yurong clarify.
"What is a maid doing in the barracks?"
"I, I'm here to bring food to our young master."
"Food? Don't we have anything to eat here? β
"Our young master came home and said, your food here is too bad, like pig food, our wife is afraid that the young master will not be used to it, so she asked me to secretly send some canned food."
"Like pig food? Lu Yulin, you are really expensive, I know that you are a young man in Xiguan, and your family has money, but do you know how many people in China can't have enough to eat? How many people didn't eat the last meal? How many people were starved to death? You still think the food is poor, I will punish you for not eating for a day today, not eating fish and meat for a week, and only eating green vegetables and tofu soup. β
"Huh?" Yu Rong was anxious: "Sir, this is not good, this will make our young master faint from hunger." β
"I just want him to taste the taste of hunger, and when he faints from hunger, he will know that this 'pig food' is the best delicacy in the world. Go back and tell your wife that there are no young masters in the barracks, only soldiers, only iron-beaten men. β
"Young master, I hurt you." Yu Rong whimpered.
"Go back. Come, wrap these cans for her, and send this girl out. β
"Leave these cans behind." A voice came.
Instructor Lin looked back and saw that it was Director Chen Xuguang Chen of the Political Department. hurriedly saluted: "Hello, Director Chen." β
Director Chen also returned a military salute: "Bangzuo, your education is very strong, but this can be left as a condolence gift for the students." β
"Yes."
Yu Rong was sent out of the barracks by two student soldiers, and Yu Rong reluctantly looked back at Lu Yulin step by step.
After a day of practice, the hungry students devoured and ate what Lu Yulin called pig food, and Lu Yulin could only sit there straight, watching the big guy go through the clouds. He swallowed and secretly tightened the belt.
"I'm hungry." Director Chen walked over and patted Lu Yulin on the shoulder.
"Not hungry." Lu Yulin straightened his waist.
"Really not hungry?"
"I'm not hungry."
"Well, yes, like a bloody man." Director Chen patted Lu Yulin on the shoulder and left the table.
At night, Lu Yulin, who was so hungry that his chest was close to his back, made a gurgling sound in his stomach, and he couldn't fall asleep after turning over and over, Tan Jingting, who was sleeping in the lower bunk, got up quietly and handed him an open can of beef.
"Eat."
Lu Yulin looked at him gratefully.
"Don't look at me like that, it's your can."
"Let's eat together." Lu Yulin scooped a spoonful of beef and handed it to Tan Jingting.
"No, I've tasted it, it tastes so good."
"And I ate it?"
"Eat quickly, don't let the instructor find out."
At lunch the next day, other students had meat and vegetables in their rice bowls, but Lu Yulin's rice bowls only had green vegetable and tofu soup and a steamed bun. The same goes for dinner.
At night, the lights went out in the dormitory, and Tan Jingting quietly handed a paper bag to Lu Yulin, who opened it and saw that it was a large piece of braised pork.
"Let's eat, the amount of training is so large, how can you just drink soup?"
"You gave me your share, so what do you eat?"
"I ate it yesterday."
"Brother Tan, you are so good to me."
"Shhhh
A week passed, Lu Yulin's punishment was lifted, and Instructor Lin handed him a full meal. Lu Yulin took the meal, which he once regarded as pig food, but now it is a delicious delicacy with a fragrant aroma to him. He was finally able to eat normally like other students, only to see him gobble up all the food in his rice bowl.
Instructor Lin called Lu Yulin to the office.
"Report."
"Come in."
"Report to the instructor, student Lu Yulin came to report."
"Well, the voice is loud and the air is very full, it seems that this week's green vegetable and tofu soup has not been drunk in vain. How about it, do you still think that the food in the military school is like pig food? β
"Report to the instructor, the food at the military school is very nutritious and delicious."
"It's good to have such an understanding, remember: a porridge and a meal, when thinking about where it comes from, half a thread and half a thread, perseverance and material resources are difficult."
"I will always remember the instructor's teachings."
"Okay, let's go back."
"Yes."
Lu Yulin left the instructor's office and walked towards the dormitory, and when he passed the playground, he heard the cuckoo chirping again, Lu Yulin hurriedly looked out of the wall vigilantly, and sure enough, Yurong's head appeared on the wall again.
"Young master, young master."
Lu Yulin hurriedly ran to the wall: "Yurong, why are you here again?" Watch out for being spotted by the big yellow dog. β
"It's all right, I came by boat early this morning, and brought a meat bone for the big yellow dog, which is now gnawing on the bone underneath. Master, I brought some more canned food, and then. β
Yurong threw a blue-skinned bag to Lu Yulin.
"Yurong, you still want to kill me, I've been drinking green vegetable and tofu soup for a week, and I want to vomit now when I think of the taste of that soup."
"It's okay, I heard from my wife that my lord has already called Director Chen, saying that he will provide 2,000 canned beef from the military academy for free every month. That Lin instructor of yours won't trouble you anymore. β
"Then why are you risking sending canned food?"
"I'm afraid that there are too many of you here, and you won't be able to share them, so I specially brought some to you, which also includes tuna, luncheon meat, pineapple in sugar water, oranges in sugar water, and your favorite roast goose, barbecued pork, and sausage."
"Yurong, you came here for my vacation?"
"Anyway, I can't let that fierce and vicious Instructor Lin bully you like this."
"No one bullied me."
"Then he still punished you for not having anything to eat? I'm angry when I think about it. β
"Alright, alright, go quickly, lest anyone be found and I will be punished again."
"Hey, then I'll go, I'll send some more next week." After Yu Rong finished speaking, she climbed from the fence to the crooked-necked tree, and then jumped down from the tree, jumping away.
Lu Yulin stuffed the package into his military uniform and ran towards the dormitory with a panicked expression.
"Lu Yulin, stop." Instructor Lin didn't know when he appeared behind Lu Yulin.
Lu Yulin looked desperate.
"Stand upright."
Lu Yulin straightened up, and the blue leather package fell from his military uniform and fell to the ground with a clang.
"Lu Yulin, Lu Yulin, you let me say what is good about you, just after the training, you made a mistake again. Are you deliberately going against me? β
"Report to the instructor, I really didn't mean it, it was the girl in our family who sent it to me without my permission."
"How do I think, she is not like your maid, but like your daughter-in-law, she feels sorry for her father-in-law, and she has taken risks for you again and again."
"Instructor, she's really our maid."
"I don't care who she is, if I see her again, I won't be able to spare her. You, do two hundred push-ups on the spot. β
"Yes."
Under the scorching sun, Lu Yulin was lying on the ground doing push-ups.
"One, two, three, fourγγγγγγ" Instructor Lin counted beside him: "Seventy-eightγγγγγγ Eighty-nine γγγγγγ β
Lu Yulin sweated like rain, his military clothes and pants seemed to have been fished out of the water, and his arms were sore and swollen. Gradually, the surrounding area was full of onlookers and instructors.
"One Hundred and Two"
"I can't do it anymore." Lu Yulin's hands were weak, lying on the ground, panting.
"Get up, go on!" Instructor Lin kicked Lu Yulin, and Lu Yulin propped himself up, his arms trembling constantly.
"One hundred and twenty-one, one hundred and twenty-two, one hundred and twenty-three, one hundred and twenty-fourγγγγγγ"
Lu Yulin's eyes darkened and he fainted on the ground.
"Instructor Lin, he's fainted."
"Help him to the dorm." Instructor Lin glanced at Lu Yulin, who was lying on the ground, and ordered the students next to him.
"I'll come." Tan Jingting squeezed in from the crowd, picked up Lu Yulin and ran towards the dormitory.
Tan Jingting put Lu Yulin on his bed and sprayed a mouthful of water in his face, and Lu Yulin woke up.
"Ahh
"Come, I'll rub it for you. You may be suffering from heat stroke. Tan Jingting massaged Lu Yulin: "Are you still dizzy now?" β
"Much better, thank you, Brother Tan."
"Come on, come on, everyone come here, Instructor Lin asked me to divide these cans with the big guys." A student rushed into the dormitory.
"Come, Gao Jinming, this canned luncheon meat is for you, Ma Weimin, this sugar water orange belongs to you, Yang Boren, this canned pineapple is for you, this canned tuna, who wants it?"
"Give it to me."
"Okay, go on."
"This roast goose γγγγγγ"
"Du Xueqian, don't divide it." Tan Jingting pressed Du Xueqian's hand: "You too, you are all embarrassed to eat, that girl named Yurong came to the military academy twice, and Xiao Linzi suffered twice, either she was hungry, or she was punished to do push-ups to faint, you are good, every time he is unlucky, it becomes the time for you to enjoy happiness, is this appropriate?" β
When the big guys heard Tan Jingting say this, they all felt ashamed, and handed back the canned food they had been distributed.
"Brothers, we will all go to the battlefield to kill the enemy in the future, and between life and death, we must unite as one and help each other in the same boat, and we should not gloat and sit idly by. You say, yes? β
"Brother Tan is right, we students will be brothers in life and death in the future, and we should not ignore our brothers for the sake of petty profits."
"Well said." I don't know when, Director Chen appeared in the cadet dormitory: "We Huangpu Military Academy students should not be a plate of scattered sand, we should not fly separately when disaster comes, we should be sincerely united, work together, live and die together." If you fight alone on the battlefield, you will definitely lose! We must keep in mind the motto of the Whampoa Military Academy: Dear and sincere. β
"We must remember the school motto."
Director Chen came to Lu Yulin: "How is it, there is no problem with your body." β
Lu Yulin hurriedly sat up: "No problem, Director Chen, I'll just take a rest." β
"Okay, the remaining seventy-six push-ups, you will return them to Instructor Lin tomorrow."
"Yes."
"Director Chen, I've fainted after doing this, are you still doing it?" Du Xueqian hurriedly came over to plead with Director Chen.
"The military order is like a mountain, as a revolutionary soldier, we should take obedience to orders as our duty, and Instructor Lin did not change the order, then these two hundred push-ups must be completed. There is no joke in the army. β
Everyone felt the weight of Director Chen's words, and also understood the responsibilities of being a soldier.
Military training is in full swing, and physical fitness, terrain, tactics, shooting, bomb throwing, fighting, swimming, communications, demolition, shelling, driving, ambulance, lurking, sabotage and other subjects are advancing in an orderly manner.
After a year of training, Lu Yulin has become a lot stronger, from a white-faced scholar who has no power to restrain chickens to a sharpshooter with quick action, clear thinking, vigorous and resolute, and both wisdom and bravery.
