Li Zheng never expected that he dreamed of becoming a soldier, but before he could become a soldier, he first became the boyfriend of a soldier's daughter.
What he didn't expect even more was that it seemed that Shao Xiaoqian's father was no ordinary soldier.
The reason why Yan'an Road is called Yan'an Road has its own intrinsic meaning. Before the liberation, it was not called Yan'an Road. It was renamed after the liberation. It was the command center of the troops that liberated the city. It was the number one of several platoons in the history of the Republic's army.
Generals once lived here and commanded their thousands of troops.
Today, this is the headquarters of the local garrison, and only senior cadres of the headquarters live here.
This issue……
Well……
Li Zheng felt his calves were a little sore for no reason, and couldn't help but stop and rub his thighs.
Shao Xiaoqian chuckled: "Are your legs weak?"
Li Zheng quickly stood up straight, straightened his psoas muscles and emboldened himself: "What's the matter? I've never seen anything before, and why are you afraid of seeing your dad?"
But after a pause, he couldn't help but ask: "Is your father the chief?"
Hearing this, Shao Xiaoqian laughed again: "My dad doesn't like others to call him that. Don't call him that later. Just call him uncle."
Li Zheng said: "Okay."
Shao Xiaoqian suddenly asked for no reason: "What do you think of college students becoming soldiers?"
Li Zheng felt something was wrong, why did he ask about being a soldier?
"What do you think? No idea. In fact, I want to be a soldier myself."
When Shao Xiaoqian heard this, she smiled slightly and said, "Then...if you secretly sign up to be a soldier without telling the person you like, do you think you should be angry?"
Li Zheng's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that he was discovered about signing up to be a soldier?
I wanted to find a suitable opportunity to tell Shao Xiaoqian solemnly, but I couldn't hide it anyway, so I ended up breaking the news in advance.
Shao Xiaoqian's eyes fell on Li Zheng's face, as if she wanted to see some clues.
Li Zheng couldn't stand it any longer. He thought that saying it sooner or later would mean that an ugly daughter-in-law would always have to see her parents-in-law, so he thought: "Xiaoqian, actually I decided to join the army this year, and I have already gone to the school recruitment office to sign up.
I wanted to tell you about this sometime..."
"You want to be a soldier too?!"
Before he could finish speaking, Shao Xiaoqian interrupted Li Zheng in surprise.
Li Zheng nodded guiltily: "Yes..."
Suddenly he frowned: "Huh? What did you just say? You want to be a soldier too?"
He found that Shao Xiaoqian used the word "ye".
Also join the army?
Shao Xiaoqian's face overflowed with unconcealable happiness, flowing like honey: "Do you know why I asked you to come to my house for dinner today?"
Li Zheng said: "Confirming our relationship will allow me to pass the test of my future father-in-law and mother-in-law, won't it?"
Shao Xiaoqian said: "That's just one of the reasons."
Li Zheng was dumbfounded: "Huh?"
Shao Xiaoqian laughed again, her laughter was like a lark in the woods in spring.
"Actually, there is one more thing I want to announce tonight, because I also signed up today. I want to take you to meet my parents before I join the army."
Li Zheng hasn't come back to his senses yet: "Sign up? What name should I sign up for?"
Shao Xiaoqian playfully stretched out her hand and pinched Li Zheng's nose, and said coquettishly: "I'm going to be a soldier too! Idiot!"
Soldier?
My girlfriend is actually going to join the military this year?
The news announced by Shao Xiaoqian made Li Zheng suddenly feel dizzy with happiness.
But when I think about it, it's not surprising at all. Shao Xiaoqian is a descendant of a soldier.
What more explanation is needed to become a soldier?
Isn’t this the legendary telepathy?
Shao Xiaoqian suddenly said softly: "Li Zheng, I will serve as a soldier for at least two years. Two years is not long or short. Are you willing to wait for me?"
Li Zhengmu is gone.
this……
This should be my own line!
Why was it robbed again?
When I am with Shao Xiaoqian, I always seem to be the passive one.
But being passive is passive, and this kind of passivity feels really good.
"I do!" Li Zheng felt that his blood was running twice as fast in his body as usual, and his tongue could not suppress a slight tremor.
To be solemn, he even raised his right hand: "I am absolutely willing! I swear!"
Shao Xiaoqian said: "Okay, Comrade Li Zheng, then we will be comrades-in-arms from now on!"
Li Zheng has not yet come to his senses: "Comrade..."
The twist in his mind couldn't be reversed for a while. They were lovers ten minutes ago, but now they are comrades-in-arms.
Comrades...
Why does this title sound so comfortable?
…
After feeling touched, the two of them saw that it was not early, so they walked along the straight road in the army compound, bypassing the movie theater, then turning around the complex building, and finally entered the family area.
The surrounding lawns shaped like squares and the step lines that appear on the ground from time to time remind Li Zheng at all times that this is the army!
As he got closer to Shao Xiaoqian's home, he felt his throat getting thirstier.
There are not many buildings in the family courtyard of the Yan'an Road Headquarters, and the few houses look very old. They have a strong Soviet-style architectural style. They are symmetrical about the central axis and have a regular plane. The middle is high and the sides are low. The main building is tall and the corridor is wide.
The slow extension is followed by a "three-section" structure. The "three sections" refer to the three parts of the eaves, wall body, and feet, which give people a sense of solemnity visually.
"Why haven't you arrived yet?" Li Zheng couldn't help but ask.
Shao Xiaoqian pointed inside: "My home is at the very back."
"Ha..." Li Zheng smiled a little reluctantly: "It's the innermost..."
What I saw when I first entered the compound was a five-story building. Now that the building is gone, what gradually appears is a small single-family building with front and back yards. The vegetation is regular and it looks like it is often taken care of. There are trees in front of the door, and
The tree is quite old at first glance, with a shady crown and luxuriant branches.
"Xiaoqian!"
Suddenly a young man came out of the small building next to him. When he saw Shao Xiaoqian, he said hello.
Shao Xiaoqian waved to the other party: "Zhang Jian!"
Li Zheng asked quietly: "Who is this?"
Shao Xiaoqian didn't know whether it was intentional or intentional, but she said to Li Zheng with a mysterious face: "His name is Zhang Jian, and he is my neighbor. We have grown up here together since childhood."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Oh..." Li Zheng nodded casually, but felt a sour taste under his tongue, and couldn't help but look at Zhang Jian a few more times.
Judging from Zhang Jian's appearance, he is about the same age as himself, so he shouldn't be much older.
However, Zhang Jian is tall and powerful, with a square face and a standard face of a decent movie character. Because he is wearing a quick-drying tight T-shirt, his tendons are fully stretched under the clothes, and he has a tall and erect posture and a dignified appearance.
The stop there is quite like a jade tree facing the wind.
Zhang Jian walked over, his eyes always focused on Li Zheng without moving even half an inch, as if he wanted to see through Li Zheng before he stopped.
When the person arrived, Shao Xiaoqian quickly introduced him: "This is my boyfriend Li Zheng."
Zhang Jian seemed unwilling to have any communication with Li Zheng. He glanced sideways at Li Zheng, nodded to the latter in an extremely polite manner, and said as if to himself in the air: "Hello.
"
Li Zheng also responded politely: "Hello."
The next second, Zhang Jianli immediately turned to Shao Xiaoqian. He smiled at Li Zheng's expressionless poker face and said, "Xiaoqian, you are going home, right? Just wait here, I'm going home."
Give you that thing."
After saying this, Shao Xiaoqian couldn't help but react. She turned around and ran quickly to another small Soviet-style building next to her, and quickly disappeared through the door.
Looking at Zhang Jian's back, Li Zheng said thoughtfully: "He doesn't seem to have a good impression of me."
Shao Xiaoqian smelled the sour smell in the air and explained: "Zhang Jian is like this. People who don't know him well have a cold face when they meet him. He has such a personality. He is quite arrogant and a bit confident. Not many people can catch his eye."
Li Zheng said: "Well, it depends on who it is. You see, he is different when he sees you. He wants to smile all over his face, just like the blind bear saw honey and wanted to smear it on his face."
"
Shao Xiaoqian was made to giggle again by him, and said with trembling flowers: "You are the poor one! Who is the bear and who is the honey?"
Li Zhenggang wanted to say that Zhang Jian was a blind bear, but before he could say anything, he saw Zhang Jian carrying a bag of things in his hand, which was swept back to the two of them like the wind.
"Here! The rock sugar snow pear was sent from my mother's hometown. This kind of pear is an improved variety from the Institute of Agricultural Sciences. It is currently being grown on a trial basis. It is sweet, not crumbly, and delicious. You can take it back and give it to my aunt to try."
When he mentioned the word "scum", his tone became heavier intentionally or unintentionally, and he glanced in the direction of Li Zheng.
Li Zheng obviously noticed this little move and thought that maybe he was not the only one who was jealous, there was someone more jealous than him.
So she deliberately hugged Shao Xiaoqian's waist tightly and looked at Zhang Jian as if she was declaring her territory.
The corners of Zhang Jian's mouth twitched slightly, as if he had been shocked, and his expression immediately became unnatural.
Shao Xiaoqian lowered her head and looked at the snow pear in the bag. It was indeed a big yellow pear with first-class appearance, so she said: "No wonder my mother always praises you, you are short-tongued when it comes to love."
Zhang Jian looked at Shao Xiaoqian with a smile, and opened his mouth to say something, but when he caught a glimpse of Li Zheng next to him, his face turned cold again, and he said lightly: "I won't stop you from going home for dinner. Go quickly, don't let uncle
Auntie is waiting for you."
"Thanks! I'm going home for dinner first, my parents are waiting." Shao Xiaoqian held the pears in one hand and Li Zheng in the other, turned around and walked towards her home.
"goodbye……"
After Shao Xiaoqian left, Zhang Jian stayed in place like a stone sculpture for a long time, until Shao Xiaoqian's figure disappeared around the bend of the path.
At the end of the day, he suddenly sighed, turned around and went back to his home lonely.
Zhang Jian's home is not far from Shao Xiaoqian's home, just around the corner.
It is also an old-fashioned two-story building. There are nine-mile incense planted beside the fence in the yard, which is neatly trimmed. There are some flowers and plants in the yard. The floor is paved with bluestone, which is very solid and has a sense of history.
The two of them walked through the yard and entered the door. Li Zheng saw at a glance a man in his fifties with a white haircut sitting on the sofa. He was wearing a standard shirt and was reading the People's Liberation Army newspaper in his hand.
Hearing the movement at the door, he raised his eyes and looked over. He saw a pair of tiger eyes that were calm and intimidating. When Li Zheng's eyes met his, he felt inexplicably weak in his heart.
"Dad!" Shao Xiaoqian coquettishly said to the middle-aged man: "Stop reading the newspaper..."
She pulled Li Zheng and pushed him in front of her.
"Don't you always say you want to meet my boyfriend? Well, this is Li Zheng."
The man raised his eyes and his eyes fell on Li Zheng.
Not only does Li Zheng feel weak in his heart, but his spine feels a little cold...
"Uncle...okay..."
Li Zheng, who is usually very eloquent, stuttered a little.
Shao Xiaoqian's father did not get up, but his attention had left the newspaper and was all on Li Zheng.
A pair of tiger eyes swept over the daughter's boyfriend, from left to right, from top to bottom, like an X-ray machine, wishing to see Li Zheng clearly...
Li Zheng stood there without daring to move. He could only stand upright and laugh with him.
This feeling...
It's like doing something wrong...
After standing for a moment, Li Zheng saw that the other party still didn't speak. He just stared at himself, and he couldn't help feeling a little unhappy in his heart.
I usually behave upright and aboveboard, didn't I just have an affair with your daughter?
Isn’t it just about falling in love?
As for being a thief?
With this thought in his mind, Li Zheng suddenly felt that his back was stiffened and he felt confident.
He simply stopped being formal and took out a gift to give to his future father-in-law.
I never expected that something unexpected happened at the critical moment. I was still a little nervous when I walked around the sofa to hand over the gift. My foot was hooked by the leg of the sofa. I staggered and the carefully prepared greeting gift flew out of my hand.
It went out and hit the ground hard.
Snapped--
The sound of landing was slightly dull.
Li Zheng's heart skipped a beat and he thought to himself: It's over, it's over...
