Chapter 175 The temperament of the older generation
The jeep quickly arrived at the gate of the compound. Not to mention, this jeep is faster than a bicycle. If you cycle around the place you turned around this morning, you probably won't be able to turn around in two days.
The jeep was still some distance away from the gate. A soldier came out and gestured for Fangyuan to stop.
Fangyuan stuck out her head and asked: "What, can't we come in?"
The soldier knew him and said: "It's not that you can't enter. Vehicles must be registered before entering."
"Oh! Register! Okay, I understand." Fangyuan quickly got out of the car and prepared to register.
Although the soldier was curious about how Fangyuan could drive and drive a jeep, he didn't ask because it was not his business.
Fangyuan went to the guard room to register, and then drove in. Soon the jeep stopped at the door of Xu's hometown.
The space at the entrance of this small courtyard is quite large. Parking a car will not delay passing people and bicycles back and forth.
Of course, you can only park at the door, and it is impossible to drive in.
A jeep parked at the door, which still attracted the attention of the people in the house. Mr. Xu, the old lady, and the service staff Xiao Chen all came out of the house.
"Hey! This is too grand! I don't dare to take it seriously." Fangyuan came out and said.
"It's you?" Xiao Chen, the waiter, looked at Fangyuan in disbelief and said.
Not to mention her, the old lady, even Mr. Xu looked at Fangyuan in disbelief.
This is a car! Fangyuan is a little older, no more than ten years old at most, and a little kid in his teens is actually driving a jeep.
"What kind of eagle are you playing with?" Mr. Xu came over and asked.
"Uh!" Fangyuan was stunned for a moment and said, "Old man, what's the matter?"
Mr. Xu gave Fangyuan a roll of his eyes. He was already immune to whether Fangyuan was big or small.
This guy doesn't know what's going on. When he meets a girl, no matter who it is, grandma, aunt or sister, she calls her sweet.
But if it's a man, it's different. It's easier to say that the younger one will call him uncle or something like that. When he meets an older one, this kid will call him an old man.
That's good! Like Mr. Li, this guy is just an old scoundrel, shouting like an old scoundrel.
"What's going on with your car?" Mr. Xu asked, circling the car.
"Hehehe, I did something for someone else, so they lent it to me." Fang Yuan said with a silly smile and scratched his head.
"Borrowed? Someone borrowed your car and got you a set of these things?" Mr. Xu said, pointing to the things under the steering wheel.
"You're talking about this! I did it myself. I can't help it. This car is too high for me, so I can only drive it this way."
Hearing what Fangyuan said, Mr. Xu shook his head and said nothing more.
He knew that Fangyuan was not telling the truth, but he didn't want to expose it.
"Sister Xiao Chen, come and help me take the things down." Fangyuan shouted to the service staff Xiao Chen.
"Oh! Okay."
Fangyuan opened the back, revealing the sack and two boxes of Red Star Erguotou.
"Are these all?" Xiao Chen asked.
"Yes, they are all, and also in the sack."
"Oh! I know."
Fangyuan didn't make a move. This doesn't mean he's lazy, but he also has something in his hand.
Aren’t you here to do something for Mr. Xu? Although he bought two boxes of Erguotou, Fangyuan thought about it and took out two bottles of Maotai.
Xu Laoyi is happy, maybe he can arrange a good place for Li Weiguo, of course, this is what Fangyuan wants.
"Hahaha! Little rascal, I heard it was you." At this moment, Mr. Li came over.
Fangyuan gave him a look and asked, "Old scoundrel, why are you here?"
Hearing the conversation between the two people, the waiter Xiao Chen covered his mouth and snickered. The old lady didn't care and looked at the two people with a smile.
"I should be asking you this! What are you doing here again?" Mr. Li asked Fang Yuan with eyes wide open.
"What does it have to do with you, an old scoundrel, whether I come or not? This is not your home. I can come whenever I want."
After Fangyuan finished speaking, he walked in directly, which made Old Li very angry. Of course, this was just a look. Only he himself knew whether Old Li was really angry or not.
"Hey! Did you bring wine?"
Mr. Li looked at the Red Star Erguotou carried by the waiter Xiao Chen, then looked at the Maotai held by Fangyuan, curled his lips and said, "Why don't you all bring Maotai?"
"I want you to take care of it. Don't stand and talk without hurting your back. Do you know how difficult this thing is?" Fang Yuan curled her lips and said to Mr. Li again.
"How hard can it be to get, isn't it just a drink ticket?" Mr. Li glanced at Fangyuan with disdain.
Really, Fangyuan really wanted to go over and give it to him. It was so easy. It was just a drink ticket!
Fangyuan ignored him, handed the two bottles of Maotai to Mr. Xu and said, "This is for you. I originally wanted to get you two more bottles, but these wine tickets are too difficult to get."
"It's okay, I don't usually drink much, but this old boy likes to drink." Mr. Xu pointed at Mr. Li and said.
"If you don't give it to him if he likes it, he won't have a share." Fangyuan glared at Mr. Li and said.
Hearing what Fangyuan said, Mr. Li said: "I told you that you really hold a grudge. I don't even care about you anymore. You still care about it!"
"I'm telling you, don't think you can get a drink by just saying a few words of good or bad. There's no way." Fang Yuan pointed at Mr. Li and said.
"I said you two are fine, why do you start fighting each other as soon as they meet!" Mr. Xu said as he looked at the old and the young with a dumbfounded look.
"Who wants to fight with him?"
"Who wants to fight with him?"
Fangyuan and Mr. Li said this sentence almost in unison. After finishing speaking, the two looked at each other and then both laughed.
Of course, the two of them are not really fighting. Fangyuan feels that Mr. Li is quite interesting and likes to bicker with him. Despite what he says, in fact, one of the two boxes of Red Star Erguotou is for Mr. Li.
The same goes for Mr. Li. He hasn't quarreled with anyone in so many years. When he met Fangyuan, he especially liked the kid's appearance.
I find it quite interesting to bicker with this kid. The most important thing is that this kid is fearless and has the same energy as he did back then.
"Okay, sit down!" Mr. Xu sat down on the sofa and said.
Fangyuan was not polite and went over and sat down.
He was not polite, let alone Mr. Li. Not only did he sit down, he also picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup.
"Tell me! What's the matter with your kid coming here this time?"
Who is Mr. Xu? This guy is both Erguotou and Maotai. He is definitely more than just coming here to hang out. He must have something to do with him.
"Hey hey hey!" Fang Yuan smiled silly and scratched his head and said, "Did you see it?"
"You kid..." Mr. Xu wanted to say something, but he didn't say it. Instead, he looked at Fang Yuan and asked, "Tell me! What's going on?"
Fangyuan touched her nose and said: "It's not a big deal. I have a brother who is fifteen or sixteen this year. He has nothing to do at home, so he wants to join the army, so..."
"That's it?"
"That's right! Otherwise, what else could happen?" Fangyuan spread his hands and said.
"You can just ask him to go directly when the army is drafted. Why do you come to me?"
"Hey hey hey! Don't I want you to find a place? And this brother of mine has never gone to school."
"Never went to school?" Mr. Xu frowned.
Before Mr. Xu could speak, Mr. Li, who was sitting next to him, was unwilling and said, "What's wrong with not going to school? I haven't gone to school either. I'm just a mud-legged guy. I won't fight as a soldier."
Hearing what Mr. Li said, Mr. Xu looked at him and said, "I say, Mr. Li, times have changed. Do you think it's still the same as it was then?"
"Stop talking nonsense, just say you don't care. If you don't want me to care, just call me."
When mentioning that Li Weiguo never went to school, it seems to have touched upon Mr. Li's pain point, which Fangyuan did not expect.
He really didn't know that Mr. Li had never gone to school.
"Who said I don't care anymore? It's just that it's not the time to recruit soldiers yet." Mr. Xu glared at Mr. Li and said.
"Oh! It's really different. I think back then, wherever I went, I would recruit people to serve as soldiers. Now I have to set a time limit." Mr. Li shook his head and said.
"The past is the past, and the present is now. It's been so many years, why haven't you gotten rid of your bad habits?"
Hearing what Mr. Xu said, Mr. Li widened his eyes and said, "I'll be like this for the rest of my life. I can't afford it."
"You!" Mr. Xu shook his head, not knowing what to say to Mr. Li.
But he also knows that what Mr. Li said is right. It is estimated that it is impossible for him to change in this life, because his personality is there.
To be honest, Fangyuan likes Mr. Li like this, so what can you say?
Fangyuan can get along with Mr. Xu and Mr. Li, isn't it because Fangyuan knows the nature of these older generations! This is called following their own preferences.
But one thing is that you can't play tricks. They, the older generation of soldiers, don't like others to play tricks with them.
"Mr. Xu, do you think this will work? I won't naturalize him yet, but just train like everyone else, and then add him when he is recruited." Fang Yuan thought of an idea.
Hearing what Fangyuan said, Mr. Xu nodded and said, "You can try this."
"What else are you trying to do? I think it's okay. Let's do this. I'll call Dabiao and ask him to join Dabiao's group."
Mr. Xu thought for a moment and said, "It's okay. Although it's a bit difficult there, it can train people."
"That's it, I'm going to decide this guy." Mr. Li said, patting his chest.
"I asked Mr. Li, how is the place you mentioned? It can be a little bitter, but not too bitter! My brother has been a miserable person since he was a child."
Fangyuan is right! Li Weiguo is indeed a hard-working man. He never went to school for a day. He had to take care of his younger brothers and sisters since he was a child, and he also had to find food for the family. It can be said that he endured a lot of hardships.
"What do you know? Being a soldier means you have to endure hardships. If you don't endure hardships, you won't be a soldier. It's better to go home and have your children."
"Uh!" Fangyuan smiled bitterly and shook his head. He didn't know whether sending Li Weiguo to the army was a good thing or a bad thing.
But things are already like this, and it's too late for him to say anything else, unless he doesn't let Li Weiguo go.
Chapter completed!
