At this time, three more people walked in at the door, it was Lian Commander Wu and Li Dabao Zhang Gensheng, and the three of them also sat at Xu Jiuyan's table.

Company Commander Wu kicked Li Dabao and asked him to serve the meal.

Xu Jiuyan pretended to be dead and stared at the table, and Company Commander Wu looked at Xu Jiuyan and said to the handsome soldier: "Battalion commander, do you want this meal?" ”

The handsome soldier glanced at him and said: "You are still injured in such a mission, you haven't kept up with the training, I not only invite you to this meal, I also invite you to add food, how about doubling the training tasks in a row?" ”

Company Commander Wu had a bitter face, and hurriedly said: "Don't, battalion commander, there is something to discuss, you said that I dragged my family with my mouth, I can't afford to eat, I can't afford to eat." ”

Xu Jiuyan peeked at the handsome soldier, but he didn't expect that the young man, who looked like he was in his early twenties, turned out to be a battalion commander. The battalion commander snorted coldly and didn't pay attention to him.

Li Dabao also came out with a cook and put it on the table. Xu Jiuyan looked at a big bowl full of rice, and quietly swallowed his saliva, Nima, feed the pigs, so much, I can't eat it, Xu Jiuyan really doesn't eat much rice, and once in a while, she can't finish this amount of food.

Peeking at the others, Xu Jiuyan coughed dryly, and whispered to the battalion commander: "This, comrade battalion commander, I can't eat so much, it will be wasted, can you pick up some." ”

Li Dabao listened, looked at Xu Jiuyan and said, "Hey, when the comrade was in the forest, he was hungry for a tree, why can't he eat such a good rice?" ”

Company Commander Wu directly kicked Li Dabao and scolded him: "You shut up for me, no one treats you as a dumb person." ”

Xu Jiuyan smiled awkwardly, Nima is sick, when did I become greedy for a tree, what kind of eyes.

The handsome battalion commander glanced at Li Dabao, Li Dabao hurriedly lowered his head to eat, and then turned his head to Xu Jiuyan and said, "Yes, Comrade Xu is not polite, I'll go get a bowl for Comrade Xu." ”

Xu Jiuyan pulled the rice in the bowl into another bowl, there was only a little left, she really didn't want to eat rice. The handsome battalion commander looked at it and said, "Comrade Xu is welcome, eat more." ”

Xu Jiuyan couldn't care about the embarrassment, he directly reached into the satchel, took out an oiled paper bag from the space, and said to the battalion commander: "I'm a northerner, and I'm not used to rice in the south, these are enough, because I'm a postman, and I go up and down the mountains and the countryside everywhere, so I usually bring rice, I have steamed buns, these are really enough." ”

As he spoke, he opened the oiled paper bag and revealed a snow-white steamed bun, with meat in the middle of the steamed bun, which made people look greedy. Everyone present was surprised, looking at the steamed buns and meat in Xu Jiuyan's hands, their eyes widened.

Zhang Gensheng swallowed his saliva and said: "Good girl, this standard of living is not low, so why are you still hungry for trees?" ”

Xu Jiuyan pursed his lips and pinched the steamed bun and said, "I don't have a greedy tree, it's just a rare time to see durian, it's just a surprise." And I am an official postman, I have thirty-eight pounds of grain and thirty-one yuan a month, and I am not short of food. ”

After Xu Jiuyan finished speaking, he took a bite of steamed buns, Zhang Gensheng swallowed a mouthful of rice and said, "There is indeed no shortage of food." ”

The handsome battalion commander looked at Xu Jiuyan and said, "Listen to your accent to Kyoto?" How did you get here? ”

Xu Jiuyan turned his head to look at the battalion commander and said: "I am from Kyoto, and I am an educated youth who responded to the call of the country to serve the public, and I arranged the work of a postman because I was qualified in all aspects. ”

The handsome battalion commander took a bite of food and said: "Then you are quite powerful, you are actually a capable postman from Kyoto, can you be familiar with this road?" ”

"At first, someone took it, and then I ran by myself, and now I am basically familiar with it, and if it is farther away, other people in our bureau will take care of me, and I will send some closer."

After chatting a few more words, after a few people finished eating, the handsome battalion commander arranged a car to send Xu Jiuyan back, Xu Jiuyan was apprehensive about the road conditions here, and hurriedly said that he would not cause trouble to the troops, and just walk back by himself.

However, the handsome battalion commander insisted on sending Xu Jiuyan back, and he was also ready to visit Xu Jiuyan's unit to express his gratitude.

Xu Jiuyan complained bitterly, what the hell is this called, I just ate enough, I was really afraid that I would vomit, and I was blind to her steamed buns and meat, so I had no choice but to agree with a wry smile.

After getting into the car, Xu Jiuyan saw four durians and raised his eyebrows, very good, it can be regarded as a comfort that her things didn't run.

Fortunately, the way back to the post office was much smoother than the road just now, but it was still very bumpy, Xu Jiuyan had a bitter face, his hands were tight, and he was bitter in his heart.

She really wants to change with the driver's brother, let me drive, at least a few pits can be avoided. The road is not good, the shock absorption of the car is also lacking, and the driver's skills are not good, and he can't stop complaining, he really wants to cry without tears.

The handsome battalion commander thought that Xu Jiuyan was nervous, and thought that he was intimate and talked to Xu Jiuyan.

"Where is Comrade Xu from Kyoto, seeing that Comrade Xu is not very old, he is actually familiar with the road conditions here, the road here is really not easy to walk, I am afraid that it is hard work."

Xu Jiuyan suppressed the feeling of nausea and said: "I am from Kyoto City, and I have been here for a year and a half. ”

"Oh, that's a coincidence, I'm also from Kyoto City, so it's rare to meet a fellow countryman."

Xu Jiuyan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, his brain immediately came alive, he glanced back at the handsome battalion commander and said, "It's really a coincidence, Comrade Battalion Commander will take care of it in the future." ”

"Hehe, I can't say anything about care, Comrade Xu doesn't need to call me Comrade Battalion Commander, my name is Chen Boting, how old should I be you, and it's okay for you to call Brother Chen."

"Okay, Brother Chen, don't call me Comrade Xu, my name is Xu Jiuyan, I'll be seventeen years old, just call me by my name."

"Went to the countryside at such a young age? It's really rare. ”

Xu Jiuyan's brain was spinning rapidly, this is a serious fellow, and the level is not low, this is a rare connection, how to catch it, it doesn't seem abrupt.

Chen Boting saw that Xu Jiuyan didn't answer, as soon as he thought about going to the countryside at such a young age, there were many sisters in the family, there was no way, just wanted to open a few words, and listened to Xu Jiuyan.

"I'm the only one left in my family, it's the same everywhere, thinking that I have hands and feet, I don't have to eat and wait for death to live, there must always be a goal, just the street propaganda national call, I went to the countryside. I also want to create the fruits of my labor with my own hands and make my life more meaningful. ”

Chen Boting was stunned, there was only one person left? Before I could figure it out, I heard Xu Jiuyan speak.

"By the way, I'm going back to Kyoto for the Chinese New Year this year, I can go back to visit my family, do you want to go back?"

Chen Boting was slightly stunned and said: "I won't go back, we are different from you, we need a lot of reports to go back, and there is a time limit, so we can't go home casually." ”

Xu Jiuyan thought for a moment and said: "Oh, give up your small family for everyone, you are very great." I won't bring anything when I go back alone, do you have anything to bring home, I can help you bring some back, so that your family can rest assured. ”

"Thanks, no need to bother."

"Don't bother, I'm going back anyway, I can help you bring some, if you don't worry, you can write a letter to your home first, write everything you want to bring, and then when I go back, I'll tell you which bus, let your family go to the station and wait to receive it, I won't be greedy for your things."

"Hehe, I'm not afraid that you are greedy for ink things, I'm afraid it's inconvenient for you to walk such a long way as a girl."

"There's nothing inconvenient, I send letters and parcels, carrying dozens of catties of large packages, and I am used to walking dozens of miles of mountain roads. It's rare to have a chance for the New Year, and Brother Chen can bring something to his family, which is also a blessing for the New Year. You have a family that is very happy, and you should cherish it. ”

Xu Jiuyan's voice was a little low at the end, and he looked very lonely, Chen Boting looked at Xu Jiuyan through the rearview mirror, swallowed back the words he wanted to refuse, and changed his words.

"Then it's troublesome Xiao Xu, when Xiao Xu leaves, I can send you off."

"Ah, it's going to be another month, and I'll let you know when I'm ready, anyway, your troops have a lot of letters, and if I can't come, I'll ask my colleague to tell you. By the way, can you be contacted at your post kiosk? ”

"Yes, I'll leave you a phone number, you can call me when you have something urgent, just say find Chen Boting."

After speaking, he took out a pen from his jacket pocket, and then looked around to find a piece of paper, Xu Jiuyan took out a piece of letter paper from his bag and handed it to him, leaving a phone number.

Xu Jiuyan put the phone number directly into the space, this is a big deal, you have to get closer, the military relationship is used to save your life.

chatted all the way, and got to know each other in general, and what was even more unexpected was that Chen Boting's grandfather was also a teacher at Metropolitan University.

Suddenly shortened the distance again, Chen Boting knew that Xu Jiuyan was already alone, and he also felt a lot of pity, saying that he could come to him if he had something to do in the future.

Xu Jiuyan's unbelievable promise was made like this, and he couldn't help but despise himself for being too slippery, people in this era are really simple, enthusiastic and kind!

When he arrived at the post office, Chen Boting could be said to have made a face for Xu Jiuyan, and he praised and praised him.

Of course, the letter of praise must have been prepared a long time ago, but Chen Boting's words and deeds clearly expressed his high praise for Xu Jiuyan, and even said that Xu Jiuyan had a good relationship with him.

After sending Chen Boting away, Xu Jiuyan just breathed a sigh of relief, and the director patted Xu Jiuyan on the shoulder and said: "Xiao Xu is very good, and he has added luster to our post office, very good, and after the New Year, I will report to you, before it was because you were a young man in the countryside, and our unit also had to inspect you, so your level problem was suppressed, and now you have proved yourself through practical actions, then your level should also be mentioned." ”

"Thank you, director, I'm here to serve the public, it's my duty to work hard, let's go according to the procedures for the level problem, Sister Yao and Sister Zhao are both veterans, I didn't have to come to the past, according to the contribution, the two sisters work diligently no less than me."
