Chapter 425: Idol
"Then we'll wait, the old chief likes it so much, the taste must be no worse." The others chimed in.
At about 2 o'clock in the afternoon, Xie Xiaonian came back from the county seat and went to Chen Xiuhong's house to pick up the children.
Chen Xiuhong pulled Xie Xiaonian and said excitedly: "I asked about the old head of the founding of the People's Republic of China at noon today, do you know?" He is very powerful, you must seize the opportunity tonight and entertain the old chief well, so that you will have a backer in the future, and others will not dare to find your family's affairs at will. β
Although Xie Xiaonian was friendly with the old chief, he didn't want to get any benefits from him, but seeing Chen Xiuhong planning for himself like this, Xie Xiaonian still said with a smile: "I know, don't worry, I will definitely treat the old chief well." β
After Xie Xiaonian brought the children back, he first instructed Pancake and Heping: "Grandpa Luo, who often writes to the family tonight, is coming over for dinner, you two must be polite, when Grandpa Luo comes, remember to greet Grandpa Luo, you know?" β
"Mom, isn't it the Grandpa Luo you often send medicinal wine?" Pancake asked curiously.
"Yes, it's that Grandpa Luo, you remember to be polite, you know?" Xie Xiaonian instructed again.
"Well, don't worry, Mom, we must be obedient and polite." The two children said reassuringly.
Even if Xie Xiaonian doesn't tell them, the sensibility of the two cute babies is enough to win the love of others.
After a busy afternoon, Xie Xiaonian had just finished the meal when he heard a knock at the door.
Xie Xiaonian quickly wiped his hands and led the two children to open the door.
"Old chief, you're here, welcome, come in quickly." Xie Xiaonian hurriedly greeted as soon as he opened the door.
"Hello Grandpa Luo."
"Hello Grandpa Luo." The two children also followed Xie Xiaonian and greeted each other obediently.
"Okay, good, good, this is pancakes and apples, they grow so well, the last time I came, the pancakes were still small, I didn't expect them to be so big in a blink of an eye." Luo Changsong touched the pancake and Heping's head very lovingly, and said with a smile.
"By the way, Xiao Nian, let me introduce you, this is the commander and political commissar of the military region, and the two of them are having dinner at your house today." Luo Changsong then introduced.
"Hello two chiefs, welcome to the house, it's commonplace, and please don't dislike it." Xie Xiaonian hurriedly greeted.
Xie Xiaonian had seen the big leaders before, that is, the brigade commanders and division commanders of their troops, but he didn't expect to see the commander of the military region today, which was really unexpected.
Seeing that these two people respected the old chief so much, Xie Xiaonian was a little confused about the identity and level of the old chief for a while.
"I've always heard the old chief praise you for the delicious food you cooked, I must taste it well today and eat more." The commander didn't put on a show, and laughed and continued.
"That's the old chief's reputation, as long as you don't dislike it!" Xie Xiaonian said modestly.
Wang Gangyi and Xu Zhongjun, who came together, already knew each other on the way back, so they didn't need to introduce anything, and after entering the house, they were led by Xu Zhongjun to sit down and eat directly.
And the food cooked by Xie Xiaonian, of course, did not disappoint these people, everyone ate with a round stomach, and even the Moutai wine prepared by Xie Xiaonian was directly ordered three bottles.
Fortunately, several people drank okay, although some were drunk, but they did not fall.
And among these people, Xu Zhongjun has the best amount of alcohol, and he is the master, so he didn't dare to drink too much, otherwise he would not be able to arrange others in the end.
Because the old chief promised to bring pickles back to others, Xie Xiaonian did not hesitate to move four large jars out of the house, and put two large jars on each of the commanders and political commissars in the car, so that they could take them back and share them with others.
After sending the old chief home, Xu Zhongjun picked up Wang Gangyi, who was holding on, and prepared to send him home.
"Zhongjun, I'm so happy today, I've seen the old chief before, I didn't expect the old chief to remember my name, today I can be regarded as the light of the two of you, not only can I have such an in-depth communication with the old chief, but also eat and chat with the commanders and political commissars at the same table. You don't know, when I go to the military region for a meeting, I only see them in the conference room, but I never eat at the same table. β
On the way back for Xu Zhongjun to send Wang Gangyi, Wang Gangyi said as if chattering.
In the words of later generations, the old chief is Wang Gangyi's idol, and he can be so excited, and he can also say the past.
And as soon as Wang Gangyi gets drunk, he will become a chatterbox, a person who originally cherishes words like gold, his mouth will keep talking, and people who are familiar with him will know that he is drunk as soon as they see his state.
After arriving home, Wu Shuqin was surprised to see that her husband was not only drunk, but also so excited, she rarely saw her husband so happy.
After understanding it, Wu Shuqin only felt a little funny, but she didn't expect her husband to have such a naΓ―ve side.
In fact, not only Wang Gangyi was happy, but Xu Zhongjun was also very excited.
After all, he had only met these two big leaders in the previous joint exercises and farewell meetings on the front line, but he didn't expect to be able to eat at the same table today.
And these two leaders are also battle-hardened heroes, and they are characters he has always admired, how could he not be excited to meet today!
It's just that he wasn't drunk, so he didn't show it like the chief.
When everyone was sent away and rested in the space, Xie Xiaonian asked Xu Zhongjun suspiciously: "Zhongjun, what is the identity of the old chief?" Why does the commander look at him with special respect for him, his official position will not be greater than that of the commander, right? β
"The old chief is one of the few remaining veteran generals, although he is not a founding marshal, but he is also a veteran general with great military achievements, so even if he is in a semi-retired state, his official position is not big, but no matter where he goes, he is respected." Xu Zhongjun explained aloud.
"No wonder, I really didn't expect the old chief to be so powerful, in the future, I will let the two children have more contact with the old chief, and learn the skills of the old chief." Xie Xiaonian said with a smile.
"Pancakes and apples are so popular, the old chief will definitely be willing to teach them, it just so happens that the old chief's house is alone, and there are children making noise on the side, so he can be more lively." Xu Zhongjun nodded and said.
And the fact that an old chief came to the military region, and he took the commander and political commissar to Xie Xiaonian's house for dinner in the evening, only one day later, spread throughout the compound.
Everyone was very envious that Xu Zhongjun could make friends with such a person with status, so there were a lot of people in the compound who spoke sour words and were jealous.
But now that Xu Zhongjun has obviously won the favor of the people above, even if he is jealous, no one will be stupid to offend them.
The people in the compound only chewed their tongues in private, and they didn't dare to say anything in front of them.
"Huanhuan Dad, our grandmother is Xiao Nian's master, we have such a close relationship, she has such a good opportunity to show her face in front of the leader, so she only invited Deputy Master Wang to accompany the guests, but she didn't call you and our father, and it is a shame that our grandmother taught her embroidery so hard, she really has no conscience."
After Hu Jing heard about this outside, she complained to her husband in a low voice before going to bed at night.
"Didn't his brother scream, what are you doing so much!" Liu Xinguo has never been a person who thinks too much, so he said a little speechless about his daughter-in-law's chatter.
And he thinks it's his sister-in-law's business, she can call whoever she wants, how can she care so much.
If he is not called, he is still happy, if he is really asked to face such a big leader, he will definitely be so scared that he won't even speak, so it's better not to lose face.
"Can that be the same? Her younger brother is a big soldier, and those leaders are all human spirits, if she leads forward, she will not be able to see through the calculations in her heart at a glance. β
"I'm just a small platoon commander, and I'm not much different from the big head soldier, what kind of officer do you think I am." Liu Xinguo said impatiently.
"If you don't call it, then you have to call our dad, our dad is so old, he is still Xiao Nian's nominal brother, and he is qualified enough to accompany those leaders to eat." Hu Jing retorted unconvinced.
"Our dad is an orderly, and he is not the same class as them, what can I talk to them, are you too much in peace, do you want to find trouble, if you dare to take the opportunity to make trouble, let the family and sister-in-law's family be separated, see how our grandma and our parents teach you." Liu Xinguo said irritably.
"Who am I for, don't I say so much for the sake of our family, do you think I'm for myself." Hu Jing replied dissatisfiedly.
"I think you just have nothing to do, find your own anger, I'm sleeping, and I'm going to train tomorrow." Liu Xinguo didn't bother to pay attention to her, and just lay down and fell asleep.
"You are an elm head, I married you for eight lifetimes, and you are not motivated at all, you see that people are loyal to the army, you know more about people, and you don't know how to learn."
Seeing her husband like this, Hu Jing angrily slapped her husband several times.
It's a pity that no matter how much trouble she makes, Liu Xinguo doesn't reply a word anymore and ignores her behind her back.
After Hu Jing complained for a few words, she felt that her husband didn't understand her, and this one-man show was also very boring, so she lay down in the bed and sulked angrily.
And the old chief was not affected at all, he lived like a fish in water in the compound, and at least one meal a day was eaten at Xiao Nian's house, who let the food made by his nanny not be as delicious as Xie Xiaonian's.
And Li Shengnan, who returned sadly last time, went home and was lost for a while, and the more he thought about it, the more unconvinced he felt.
is such a beautiful girl, Zhong Guoquan dares to treat her so coldly, she doesn't believe that Zhong Guoquan will not like a young and beautiful girl like her, and giving up when she encounters a little difficulty is not her style.
So on the morning of the 29th, Li Shengnan took the opportunity of his rest and came to the army compound again.
