"Let's go, last time you promised me to eat with me, you said, the soldier spit and nail, you won't break your word, right?"

Lin Xue stared at Chen Ling with a smile, as if she had eaten him.

Chen Ling was a little speechless, how could he feel more and more like eating soft rice.

"Okay. ”

"That's right. ”

Lin Xue took Chen Ling to the door of a hot pot restaurant.

"That's it, the hot pot indicates that this year is booming, and your discharge from the hospital today is a good start. ”

Lin Xue pulled Chen Ling into the hot pot restaurant.

At this time, it was almost time for dinner, and the seats in the hall were already halfway through, some were eating together as a family, some were gathering with friends, and some were young couples......

The scene was hilarious.

Lin Xue was obviously a regular customer here, and after walking to the place near the window and sitting down, she handed the menu to Chen Ling and said, "Let's order." ”

Chen Ling took the menu, glanced at it, and couldn't help frowning.

Won't order!

In the army, they eat whatever they have in the canteen, and there is a full menu and hundreds of dishes, and they don't know what to choose.

Lin Xue saw that Chen Ling was stunned for a long time and didn't order, so she held back a smile, took the menu again, and said: "You are a person, an excellent soldier, but you are out of touch with society, you can't order food, and when you retire in the future, how can you stand in society." ”

Chen Ling said seriously: "I didn't plan to leave the army, you see that the people here are so comfortable, because there are many people like me who have sacrificed everything to have such a stable society now, so I will not feel inferior." ”

"Low self-esteem?" Lin Xue covered her face, crying and laughing, "Please, big brother, I didn't mean to be sarcastic, I'm praising you, you are great, you know?"

Chen Ling looked at Lin Xue and said, "Really?"

Lin Xue said solemnly: "I dare to guarantee that if the people here know what you have done, they will also stand up and applaud you, because the task you performed is really great." ”

Chen Ling's heart warmed when he heard Lin Xue say this.

Although he is a soldier and is willing to give without asking for anything in return, he will not refuse to be recognized by others.

"I'll order it, the food here is not expensive and it's very fresh, well, you should like it. ”

"Hmm, can you eat spicy?"

"It's ok. ”

"Do you have any taboos, for example, I know that some people can't eat pork and dog meat. ”

"Nope. ”

"OK, I see. ”

After Lin Xue roughly understood Chen Ling's taste, she ordered the meat and vegetable pairings for 4 people.

This is not a waste, she knows Chen Ling's amount of food.

A front-line border soldier like him has a very big appetite, and if he has less points, he will definitely not be able to eat enough.

In less than ten minutes, all the dishes were ready.

"Let's eat. ”

Lin Xue brushed Chen Ling with half a bowl of beef and put it in his bowl.

"Your consumption is large, eat more beef, it's good for your body. ”

"The ginger vinegar stuffed pork knuckle here tastes good, eat more. ”

"And this, a lot of vitamin C, keep the body balanced. ”

“......”

Lin Xue kept adding vegetables to Chen Ling's bowl, and she ate very little, basically a little bit of everything.

"Why don't you eat it?"

Lin Xue smiled and said, "I'm losing weight, I have to keep a good figure." ”

"You're already in good shape. ”

"Really?"

Lin Xue smiled brightly.

"Tell me about some of the things in the army, well, just interesting things, I know you have a secrecy policy. ”

"Interesting thing?" Chen Ling thought for a moment, "When I was at the border, my comrade-in-arms Lao Jiang said that his biggest dream was to write a book that became popular on the Internet, and he also said that he would write me into his, which is not considered an interesting thing." ”

"Did he write it?" asked Lin Xue curiously.

"He died. ”

Lin Xue was stunned for a moment and said, "Well, maybe he will continue to write in another world?"

"Maybe, he is a very interesting person, he has been talking about this ideal for three years, but he has not written 600 words, and after I went to the sentry, he said every day, I want to work hard to write, you wait, I will definitely succeed. ”

"My squad leader is also a very interesting person, he likes to drink spirits, saying that every man has to drink, so that he is a man, and when he goes to the battlefield, he can fight bravely to kill the enemy. ”

Once, when he was drunk, he actually said with tears in his eyes that he was sorry for his daughter-in-law, and he had no time to spend with her, which made him miserable. ”

Chen Ling slowly talked about his bits and pieces at the border station, feeling as if these things had just happened yesterday, talking about the squad leader and them, and what happened when he sent Sister-in-law Yang to the hospital......

Lin Xue listened quietly, becoming Chen Ling's most loyal listener and feeling everything that happened in his past.

The time for a meal was not much, but it was enough for Lin Xue to have an in-depth understanding of this iron-blooded soldier.

He looks like he has no feelings, like a machine that exists for the sake of war, but in his bones, he is full of tenderness, tenderness for his comrades-in-arms, tenderness for the troops, and care for countless strangers.

Lin Xue suddenly found that this young soldier was really full of an indescribable charm, which gave her a motivation to understand deeply.

After eating the hot pot, Lin Xue checked out, and when she walked out, a bright moon had already hung up in the sky.

Lin Xue stretched her waist, touched her little belly, and said a little naughtily: "Let's go shopping, just enough to consume food, are you full?"

Chen Ling was a little embarrassed, after a meal, he ate the amount of almost four people, and Lin Xue basically didn't eat anything.

After he crossed over, he had been guarding the frontier with the squad leader, so he wanted to activate his golden finger as soon as possible, and he was infected by the squad leader, and wanted to be a good soldier, until after the exercise, he made a first-class meritorious service, and his heart relaxed a little, especially after guarding his comrades, and did not let anyone die.

"First-class merit ......"

Chen Ling took out the medal given to him by Commander Zhao from his pocket, handed it to Lin Xue, and said, "You have a treat today, my money has been sent to Sister-in-law Yang, and there is no gift for you, so I will give you a medal." ”

Lin Xue was surprised to take the exquisite box, opened it, and saw the shining medal.

"Meritorious Service Medal of the First Class!?"

Lin Xue looked at Chen Ling in surprise, although she was not in the army, she knew very well that it was very difficult to make meritorious service in the army, and it was even more difficult to achieve first-class merit!

And how long has it been since Chen Ling returned to the army? In less than a week, he actually brought back a first-class meritorious service!

Her eyes were staring at Chen Ling's hand wrapped in white gauze, and her eyes were red.

What flower in the world can be compared to such a medal!

"Don't you like it?"

Lin Xue clutched the medal and said, "I like it, I like it, you don't want to go back......"

Suddenly, a scream came from not far away, interrupting Lin Xue's words.

"Help, there's a child going down, help......"
