Chapter 130: This Welcoming Ceremony is Too Scary!

Seeing the mother and daughter arguing, Li Xinyue quickly pulled Xu Hongqin aside.

“Sister-in-law, don’t get mad at the child!”

Xu Hongqin was furious: “Look at this kid, I say one thing, she says three, it’s really infuriating!”

Li Xinyue smiled: “Isn’t she just a child?”

“Children don’t understand because they can’t see the future.”

“Pingping, let me tell you, our country won’t always be like this.”

“Before, schools didn’t have classes, but now they’ve resumed. Do you know why?”

Why?

Isn’t it normal for schools to resume classes?

Li Pingping looked at her: “Aunt Xinyue, why?”

Li Xinyue chuckled: “It’s because the country has realized the importance of culture, or rather, the importance of talent.”

“Although we don’t take the college entrance exam now, we are still cultivating many college students.”

“Look at the people who are recommended to go to university now, their quality and background are different, it will be difficult to cultivate them.”

“I believe that one day the country will restore the college entrance exam policy.”

“You don’t want to work at the cardboard factory, isn’t it because you want to do a decent job?”

“Study hard, you might be able to take the college entrance exam when you graduate from high school.”

Really?

Li Pingping wasn’t too sure.

But she really didn’t want to work in her mother’s team.

It’s called a team leader, but it’s actually just a worker.

There isn’t much work now, and wages are often not paid.

If wages aren’t paid, what should she do?

“Listen to your Aunt Li, she’s a junior high school graduate, much better than your mom.”

Li Pingping didn’t say whether she would listen or not.

But she, at a young age, understood very well that many recommended college students had better jobs than the cardboard factory.

Especially her classmate’s sister, after graduating from university, was assigned to the military district art troupe.

Li Pingping loved singing, and every time the school’s art troupe performed, she wished it was her on stage.

If Aunt Xinyue is right, then she’ll go to college to study singing!

“Aunt Xinyue, is that true!”

Li Xinyue puffed her cheeks and nodded vigorously: “Believe in the country, that day will surely come soon!”

Alright.

Dad also often said to believe in the government and the party.

She’ll believe it this once!

The mother and daughter finally stopped arguing. After passing the military service agency, the group continued walking along the main road.

As they walked, they saw a huge playground.

“Xiao Li, their direct subordinate battalions are all over there, look.”

Following Xu Hongqin’s finger, they saw several rows of single-story buildings in the southeast direction of the large playground.

Because it was too far and the sky was dark, they couldn’t see clearly.

Only when they got closer did they realize that these single-story cement-plastered buildings were not only long but also large.

After climbing a slope, there was another crossroad.

“Their battalion is the second building next to the playground.”

“The one at the front is the engineering battalion.”

“Behind these two battalions are the motor transport battalion and the communication battalion.”

Xu Hongqin pointed to a row of camp buildings on the right and explained.

The entire terrain of the a-division is open east-west and mountainous north-south.

Therefore, the main gate is on the east side, the second gate is on the west side, and there is a small gate for family members to enter and exit on the northwest side.

The large playground is surrounded by French sycamores.

The sycamore trees in summer are lush and leafy, but they are not very tall, apparently they were pruned a couple of years ago.

“Sister-in-law!”

Before reaching the camp gate, Liu Qiang was already waiting at the intersection.

As soon as he saw them, he shouted.

“Uncle Liu!”

“Uncle Xiao Liu.”

Chen Yiheng and Li Tengfei ran over to him, showing that these two little ones liked this young man very much.

Liu Qiang is only twenty years old this year. He will finish his three-year mandatory military service at the end of next year. He heard that the camp will send him to learn driving after the new year.

Those who can go to learn driving are also very excellent people.

After returning, they will be assigned to the motor vehicle company. If they perform well, they can stay and become volunteer soldiers. .org

The two little ones ran off, Li Pingping and Li Lili, the two sisters, dared not run around, they were shy.

The four of them walked side by side, turning into the barracks door, there was a clean and tidy concrete road.

The house was raised three steps, a row of pillars led to a corridor, behind the corridor were individual doors.

There was a table at the middle doorway.

A soldier was sitting by the table.

Outside the corridor was a rectangular lawn.

On the edge of the lawn, there were rows of cement frames, and the clotheslines for drying clothes were neatly stretched.

There were also cement steps under the frames, with shoes drying on them.

Liu Qiang stood at the entrance of the canteen waiting for them.

“Sister-in-law, please come in, the battalion commander and the others went to invite the division commander and the political commissar, they will be having dinner soon.”

Ah?

The division commander and the political commissar are coming too?

Li Xinyue grinned…

Xu Hongqin chuckled, “Don’t be afraid, the division commander and the political commissar are both very kind people.”

Really?

The division commander and the political commissar of a division, will they be kind?

Well, she’s naive.

She only knows Li Yunlong from “Bright Sword.”

They stepped onto the steps and walked into the canteen…

“Stand up! Salute!”

As soon as their feet stepped into the door, a command rang out suddenly in the room.

Only a “whoosh” was heard, and everyone in the room stood up: “Sister-in-law, good! Welcome the battalion commander’s wife!”

“Applause!”

“Sister-in-law, good!”

The greetings were deafening, followed by a burst of enthusiastic applause.

This scene made Li Xinyue not know where to put her hands…

Xu Hongqin pulled her over, smiling, “Don’t be afraid!”

“Xiao Li, this is your first time here, this is their way of welcoming you.”

“Not only you, the first time we came here, we were also welcomed like this.”

“Don’t believe me, just ask others, the soldiers in the army are just so enthusiastic.”

This… is more than just enthusiasm, it should be called grand, right?

Li Xinyue’s teeth hurt: Should she say something?

Comrades, hello, comrades, you’ve worked hard?

No, no, no, that’s what the leaders say!

She’s just a military wife!

Facing such a scene for the first time, Li Xinyue felt a little toothache!

My god, this is more terrifying than her giving lectures to students in a large classroom!

Fortunately, before she could say anything, the applause stopped.

A “sit down” followed by a “whoosh” again, neat and sharp, it was clear they had practiced many times.

“Sister-in-law, this way please.”

Just then, a man who looked like a cadre walked over, smiling politely.

Li Xinyue didn’t understand the difference between soldiers and officers in the army before.

But now she knows a little: Cadres have four pockets on their clothes, soldiers have two.

“This is Platoon Leader Zhu, Platoon Leader Zhu is a great talent in the camp, a college graduate!”

Xu Hongqin quickly introduced.

Li Xinyue smiled and nodded to Platoon Leader Zhu, “Thank you.”

“You’re welcome! Sister-in-law, you’re flattering me, I just got lucky and got a recommendation.”

“If it were really based on my ability, I wouldn’t have been able to get into the CS Artillery Academy!”

“Two sisters-in-law, this way please!”

The CS Artillery Academy is an academy in Yan country that specializes in training artillerymen.

In recent years, only those with a good family background have had the opportunity to be recommended there.

Platoon Leader Zhu being able to get in shows that he is very excellent!
