Chapter 5 Early Graduation
Xiao Youming left the armed forces with a blushing face and a thick neck.
It wasn't because he had a big fight with the minister who claimed to be Lao Chen, because when he went out, he and Lao Chen had a squad against each other.
At noon, Lao Chen did nothing and invited him, a bricklayer, to drink a wine in the canteen of the People's Martial Arts Department. The three-yuan pound of loose wine was a burning chest. I didn't eat much rice, but the wine was poured into more than one pound. Xiao Youming felt that he would drink a little more, so he dared to kowtow to Lao Chen for a prayer.
So it’s no big deal to do whatever you like to be a soldier.
Although he slept home on someone's tractor and felt a little regretful when he woke up, Xiao Youming was still relieved. He just waited for Xiao Chen to go home during the summer vacation, whether to sign up for the army or work, he decided by himself.
Time spread throughout the country with the rumors and rumors, and finally came the summer vacation.
Xiao Chen still came back with a worn suitcase.
The old style and bright red made Xiao Chen look down on this box many times in school. But this thing was the dowry of Xia Yufang when Xiao Youming and his wife got married, and it was also a good thing at that time. Although more than ten years have passed, the suitcase is still durable.
In the box was all Xiao Chen's textbooks and clothes this semester. He had already made up his mind to join the army and of course he packed all the items back. Except for the bedding, he was taken home early, everything else was here.
When Xia Yufang saw Xiao Chen enter the door, she left the rice that was being paved, and regardless of the wetness on her hands, she pulled Xiao Chen into her arms.
"Baby, why did you come back? Can you stop being a soldier? People say that when you come back, you will become a second-rate person in society. You said that you are a good child, why should you be a slut in this way?"
Xia Yufang is talking about the truth.
Many people in the county have been in the army these years, and many people come back every two years.
Among them, many people have outstanding performance in their new life, but there are many people who are idle all day long and do not do their jobs.
The more concerned about this matter, the more Xia Yufang pays attention to the negative news of joining the army. This is no longer the time when they were at that time. The whole family was honored by one soldier. Now I will talk about it.
Xiao Chen was caught off guard by this sudden cry.
But after calming down his mind, he quickly broke free from Xia Yufang's arms and comforted him calmly:
"Mom, if it's really bad to be a soldier, there are so many people who want to be a soldier. You don't want me to go there, so you just want to find some bad things to persuade me. I've told my dad a long time ago that being a soldier may not be the best way out for me. I've been studying for so many years and have grown up my brain."
Xia Yufang is just a somewhat shrewd rural woman.
She did cry and make Xiao Chen give up just now. She used to try this method to Xiao Chen for a long time, but she didn't expect that she would be exposed so bluntly today, and she had no concern about her mother's face.
Xia Yufang laughed embarrassedly: "I'll cook for you."
Seeing Xia Yufang turn her head back to the kitchen, Xiao Chen sighed. When he came to this world, he was still a little resistant and alienated to Xiao Youming and Xia Yufang. He still felt a little close to Xiao Youming's straightforward temper, but Xia Yufang's cleverness made him feel a little disgusted.
But no matter what, she is also the parents of this life. Even though Xiao Chen resisted a little, he could not recognize his relatives.
Looking at Xia Yufang who was still peeking at her carefully in the kitchen, Xiao Chen sighed again.
Xiao Youming seemed to have fully accepted the result. When he came back from work in the evening, he bought a pound of braised pork ears, called Xia Yufang and Xiao Chen together, and after each seated, he poured a glass of wine for the three of them:
"Today, our son is back. He has been away from home for half a year. When he comes back, he should celebrate well. Come and take a sip."
After saying that, he took the wine glass first, then looked at Xiao Chen with a generous smile:
"Don't pretend, boy, I wanted to call you last time, but the young man in the Liu family said that you got drunk after drinking a glass of wine with someone. You have grown up, so you can't drink, you can't be considered a man. Come on, pick it up."
Seeing Xiao Chen picking up the wine glass, Xiao Youming nodded with satisfaction and drank the wine in the glass in one go.
"You kid called me and said you wanted to join the army. I felt like I was so upset. I went to the county to ask, "No, the armed minister is really unpretentious. He told me for a long time, and I also knew that there would be no harm in joining the army. If you want to go, go."
"People say that registration will only take a few days. Originally, your school could register for the military, but I thought about it. I moved my household registration to the school to eat at school for public meals. Now that you are going to join the army, it will be useless to put the household registration in the city. So I just turned it back and looked at our place."
Xiao Chen is a key college student, so there is definitely no problem in registering to join the army.
Xiao Youming talked a lot with Lao Chen, which involved the issue of household registration.
Although Lao Chen is selfish, no matter what, he knows more about the above policies than Xiao Youming. At this time, Xiao Youming still remembers what Lao Chen told him:
"Old Xiao, my child is in college, so there is no need to say that he has a household registration in the city. But in recent years, major universities have begun to enroll and integrate students, and many schools are making trouble for household registration. Moreover, the urban household registration is not as good as before. It is better to transfer the household registration back. When the household registration is cancelled when he is in the army, he will settle down again after demobilization, and the place is still under your child's name."
"Anyone of us wants the kids to go out, but if we really go out, can you bear to be able to go out these places at home?"
Although Xiao Youming has now lived a well-off life by working as a bricklayer, no matter what, he has the same idea as Old Chen, that is, no matter where he goes, the land is the foundation of life.
Of course, it is best to transfer Xiao Chen’s household registration back. Xiao Youming solicited Xiao Chen’s opinions on this matter at this time.
Of course, Xiao Chen, who is familiar with the policies of later generations, had nothing to say. It would be the best if he could really tell the transfer of his household registration. It should be noted that in twenty years, many people would cry and shout to go back to the countryside to farm, but their household registration would limit their dreams.
Xiao Youming said a lot of things during a supper.
He has always been very simple, but today he is particularly emotional. It is like Xiao Chen will never come back when he arrives in the county tomorrow.
The family of three said a lot and did not go to bed until late at night. At this time, Xiao Chen seemed to have a deeper relationship with the couple, and the resistance and alienation before had become much weaker. Xiao Chen understood that this was the only two people he felt when he came to this world and wanted to be good for him without asking for anything in return.
When the sun rose again, Xiao Chen opened his eyes and found that Xiao Youming had already gone out to work.
Xia Yufang brought the poached eggs: "You eat some first, I'll ask you, Lao Wang's family drove a mule cart to the city today at the east end of the village. When you get to the city, you buy some food. The old Chen you father said is the Minister of Armed Forces. You are more polite and you can make arrangements for you. Eat quickly, and it will be cold in a while."
Xiao Chen couldn't hate this kind of nagging for a moment.
Looking at the bowl of poached eggs on the table, Xiao Chen looked at Xia Yufang, who was still busy making dry food in the kitchen, and couldn't help but scream:
"mother."
"What's wrong? Egg hot?"
"Oh, it's okay, I just suddenly want to scream. I haven't talked to you for a long time."
The woman who was kneading dough hard in the kitchen was stunned for a moment, then suddenly chuckled twice:
"Silly kid."
After taking up the chopsticks on the bowl, Xiao Chen pulled the bowl to his side, smelling the salty and fishy poached egg. Xiao Chen took the bowl and sipped the soup. After adapting to the strange smell, he bit the poached egg in the bowl for a few months.
"It's delicious, mom, let's eat this tomorrow morning."
Looking at Xia Yufang's smiling face, Xiao Chen quickly finished the bowl of poached eggs, washed the bowl and put it in the cupboard, and walked towards the old Wang family as Xia Yufang said.
When Xiao Youming consulted the armed forces department, Xiao Chen was also consulting the school.
When he expressed his strong desire to join the army to the school teacher, the school held a special meeting for this outstanding child. After the meeting, Xiao Chen was notified that if he could do his graduation project during the holiday, the school would hold an early defense meeting for him.
The credits have been completed in the past three years, otherwise the unit in my hometown would not have taken them to internship.
To put it bluntly, the remaining year is entirely the time to stay in school to find the future. Many people will be assigned and many people will be hired. Xiao Chen chose a special path such as joining the army. As his alma mater, they also hope that Xiao Chen will go further on this path.
As a student majoring in electrical automation, he was a person in his two lives and his major was surprisingly the same. In addition, he didn’t graduate for a long time in his previous life, so he deliberately made some things and could still do a graduation design and paper in more than a month.
After a defense, Xiao Chen saw the reluctance of several professors.
My own design may be ordinary in the future, but there are still some opinions that can shine at the moment. But all of this can only turn into regrets:
Chapter completed!
