Episode 104 Successor (31) 10-day holiday

Di Lei, the commander of the third battalion of the "Iron and Blood Regiment", was in charge of the 'picketing work' of the whole regiment during the demobilization of veterans, and he listed all the gambling funds found and handed them over to the regimental administration, but Guo Xiaosong was the only one who took out the money in his office, for which he left less than 300 yuan.

I used to always say, 'Comrade Lei Feng has no hukou, March is coming and April is leaving', whenever we learn from Lei Feng, our regiment will always emerge a lot of good people and good deeds, but now it is the end of December, our regiment's Lei Feng is here again, look at it, new broom and new broom, some people said, this will not be issued by the logistics department of the regiment, I can clearly tell everyone, no, this is a comrade in our battalion, using his own year of thrift, in exchange, this comrade is our seventh company Comrade Guo Xiaosong, Guo Xiaosong, out of the ranks! After the battalion commander Di Lei finished speaking, the comrades-in-arms of the whole company all looked at Guo Xiaosong in unison.

Walked in unison to the front of the battalion commander and saluted the battalion commander, Guo Xiaosong didn't know what the battalion commander Di Lei would do next, whether it would be unfavorable to himself.

Some people say, people have to talk about human affection, after all, you are a person, I also admit this kind of thing, Guo Xiaosong himself, born in the provincial capital A city of a superior family, the big guy may not know, their family is a generation of revolutionary family, grandfather is the old Eighth Road, the two uncles are middle-level leading cadres of our army, especially his third uncle, or my Di someone's old superior, on public and private, I can't avoid this matter, a while ago, Guo Xiaosong found me, said that his family has relatives who have died, and wants to go home to see, to be honest, on this matter. It's a sentence from me as a battalion commander, I said that you Guo Xiaosong can go home, it's not a big deal, who let your third uncle have the grace of knowing me, but again, this order and regulations are clearly stipulated, being a compulsory soldier for three years, and only visiting the house once, can I break this rule with the battalion commander, comrades. Can! Dilley's voice was loud and reached the ears of everyone on the playground.

'No, I can't! The battalion's reply was only those two words.

"Very good, yes, no, I promised Guo Xiaosong, but I couldn't help him do it, which means that I, the battalion commander, am incompetent at all, but I have found a way out, that is, to take over the work of the picket team during the demobilization of veterans." During this time, I dealt with a company commander and two platoon commanders, and some people said that I turned my face and didn't recognize people. I don't talk about comrades-in-arms, but I want to ask you, they gather to gamble, and they ruin the reputation of the troops. Should they be dealt with! ’

'The! ’

'Okay, the regiment is going to give me a reward, and the commissar has also talked to me. I said that I have only one request, that is, to arrange for our battalion's Guo Xiaosong to visit the house once, although the regiment only approved ten days of leave, and it is a week to go back and forth, but I said, it is something that I Di promised someone, I think, now Guo Xiaosong has taken the initiative to donate more than 300 yuan of allowance money, and bought new cleaning tools for the whole battalion, in order to show fairness, now I declare that the twenty-seventh day of the lunar month before the New Year, to the seventh day of the first lunar month, is Guo Xiaosong's home visit time, Guo Xiaosong, you have to listen well, if you come back one day late, Lao Tzu locked you up for ten days, did you hear clearly! ’

I heard you clearly. ’

'Louder, I didn't hear it, he grew very tall, he spoke like a mosquito, buzzing, you hit you a little bee!' ’

'Report to the battalion commander! I listen-clear-chu-la! Guo Xiaosong opened his mouth wide, and he couldn't open any bigger.

A private promise turned into an on-site education class, and Di Lei said a lot of things afterwards, basically just saying that he would not accept the same request from others in the future, and Guo Xiaosong's visit to the house could only be done once, and it was the last time.

Because he had to transfer trains at the Beijing Railway Station before going home, Guo Xiaosong said goodbye to his comrades-in-arms in Lianli early in the morning, took a taxi, and rushed to the capital.

'Little brother, are you going to the capital to do something?' 'The taxi driver was very kind.

"Visiting the family, big brother, where did you say that there are clothes sellers in this capital, I want to change my clothes and go home," Guo Xiaosong had already taken out two thousand yuan for himself before he left the team.

"You brother is really weird, isn't this military uniform very good, it's not easy to be a soldier for a few years, why do you have to buy clothes to change," the taxi driver saw that Guo Xiaosong was a 'relationship soldier', he could see it.

"I only have one set of military uniforms, what should I do if I bury them, and I don't change them,"

"That's easy to do, I know a store that specializes in wholesale military uniforms, I think you're visiting your home for the first year, you see how old this bar is, it's better to replace it with a new one." ’

'Epaulettes are also sold?' Where? ’

'Not far away, you can come with me.' ’

As soon as the car entered the capital, it stopped at a green door, and the taxi driver accompanied Guo Xiaosong very enthusiastically.

"Eldest sister, it's time to buy and sell, this little brother wants to buy a new military uniform, and you can send two more military ranks." ’

'How much does this winter suit cost?' ’

“75,”

Guo Xiaosong saw that he hadn't walked into the black store yet, so he picked the model and paid.

'What about this rank,' in the counter, from 'private to sergeant', from one bar to two bars without a star, but there are no general's epaulettes. ’

"Look at your child, what do you want, I'll give you a cheaper." ’

"I want a private, a corporal," thinking that the deputy squad leader in the second year was a 'corporal' rank, Guo Xiaosong wanted to prepare a pair for himself in advance.

The proprietress took out the two military ranks that Guo Xiaosong asked for from the counter, "I'll give it to you, I don't need money, anyway, I came for nothing." ’

Guo Xiaosong felt that he couldn't take advantage of others, and then pointed to a pair of officer's leather shoes and said, 'How do you sell these shoes?' ’

"Little brother, you really have an eye, this is a new development of officer leather shoes from the A City Military Region Shoe Factory, two hundred and eighty-one pairs, don't bargain, I have to go up to two hundred and six, and now there is a new factory director over there, and the ex-factory price of these shoes is very strict."

"I know who the factory director is, I want a pair of 42s," Guo Xiaosong took out the money from his pocket and handed it to the proprietress in his hands.

"Look at the little brother, you are a happy person, what do you want to buy in the future, just come to my store, this is my business card," the proprietress sent Guo Xiaosong to the door, saw him get into a taxi, and then went back to the house.

'Well, I'm right,' the taxi driver turned to talk to Guo Xiaosong, who was sitting in the back.

"Well, thank you, big brother, what are the souvenirs of the capital, I want to buy some to go home." ’

'That's a good idea, I'll take you there,' took a taxi, which evolved into a 'chartered car', Guo Xiaosong bought a large bag of things, and finally came to the Beijing Railway Station.

More than 150 yuan of sleeper car, Guo Xiaosong did not even take a hit, immediately bought it, the car is at ten o'clock in the evening, get on the car and fall asleep, until seven o'clock in the morning of the next day to arrive at 'A Chengbei Station. ’

After a year, I returned to my hometown, feeling very cordial, but fortunately, the train station was not far from home, and I took a taxi and came to my home.

When he came in, his stepfather asked strangely, 'Why are you back?' ’

'My mom, the army gave me a week off, I'm visiting home!' When he was older, Guo Xiaosong felt that he had no feelings for his stepfather, and the reason why he was sent to the fence was because of his mother, who only regarded his stepfather as his mother's husband, and did not treat him as his father.

My mother now has a 'BB machine', and she was supposed to help at her uncle's house, but when she heard that her son was back, she rode her bicycle and rushed back.

'Mom, I'm back. ’

'Thin, as if tall, strong,' the second sister-in-law of the Guo family burst into tears as soon as she saw her son.

"What about my second sister and third sister," Guo Xiaosong still has feelings for the two unmarried sisters of his stepfather's family, and the reason why he is so good at foreign languages is all due to the foundation laid for him by several sisters.

'It's all out.' ’

'Then I'll go out to play too, Mom, you lend me the car,' Dropping off his luggage, Guo Xiaosong rode his mother's bicycle and started his' full tour. ’

Almost all of his classmates in high school have been admitted to college, and there is no contact in the first place, so Guo Xiaosong decided to find some classmates who did not go to college in junior high school, they have low social status, and they may be able to talk to him.

Senior sister Tie Ying and his wife, naturally Guo Xiaosong was the first place to go, and when Guo Xiaosong came to the billiard hall opened by Tie Ying's house, he found that the boss had been replaced by someone else and he didn't know him.

Tie Ying's home, knocked for a long time, but there was no response, Guo Xiaosong then felt what was called 'things are not people', returned home, took some local products from the capital, and went out again, this time he came to Tie Shifu's house.

'Shi Fu, Shi Niang, you are at home! ’

'Who?' ’

'Shiniang is me, I am Guo Xiaosong. ’

Entering the door, Guo Xiaosong saw Tie Ying with a child at a glance, Tie Ying has not seen her for more than a year, and she has become a lot of fortune, no longer dressed as a 'little girl', and has completely become an 'old lady' general character.

'Why are you here?' Tie Ying was surprised by Guo Xiaosong's sudden visit.

'I'm visiting home, I'm going to your house, there's no one in your house, I guess, you're here, what about my brother-in-law?' Guo Xiaosong and this 'brother-in-law' are not fighting or making deals.

'Wow~~' Tie Ying suddenly cried.

Shi Niang explained, 'I went in, I fought, and I was sentenced to three years, and I have been in for more than half a year. ’

'Ah~~, he didn't say it, he didn't fight anymore and learned well, how could this happen,' Guo Xiaosong has seen the forbearance of this 'brother-in-law', and he was sentenced to three years at once, what a crime.

"Originally, it wasn't bad for him, other people fought in the billiard hall, he stepped forward to help pull the fight, who would have thought about it, one was seriously injured, the police came, and they all said that he beat him, isn't this a sentence, who let him have a criminal record before," Shi Niang has always been not optimistic about this son-in-law, but her wife and daughter agreed, and she also passively admitted this family business.

Since Tie Shifu was not at home on a business trip for the past few days, Guo Xiaosong chatted with Tie Ying for a few words, left something, and he planned to go home.

After riding downstairs to home, Guo Xiaosong suddenly thought of Ai Xiaomeng, and after looking at the balcony of his house, he decisively changed direction and rode towards Ai Xiaomeng's home. (To be continued......)
