Chapter 49 The steamed buns are no longer fragrant
The next day, the dawn on the dam was quiet. Although everyone had a collective holiday today, Zhao Tianshan was still as usual, carrying a shotgun and starting routine patrol work at dawn.
The sky was getting brighter, and Zhao Tianshan subconsciously picked up the whistle and was about to blow it. However, as soon as the whistle touched his lips, he reacted immediately.
It's a day off today!
Thinking of this, Zhao Tianshan slowly put down his whistle again, and his mouth also curled up slightly.
For more than three years, he has long been accustomed to blowing the whistle every morning, no matter it is a hot summer, a short warm spring, or a cold winter, there is no exception.
But let’s forget it today.
College students are no better than these rough guys in the advance team. They rarely have a day off, so let them have a good sleep.
"Captain, you got up very early."
At this moment, Zhao Tianshan heard a familiar voice in his ears. He turned around and saw Li Jie walking towards him with a smile and a pole on his shoulder.
"Get used to it."
Zhao Tianshan replied with a smile, and then glanced at the buckets at both ends of the pole.
"Old Feng, what are you doing?"
"Water it."
Zhao Tianshan rolled his eyes: "Water water? Isn't it a day off for you today?"
Li Jie restated what Zhao Tianshan just said.
"Get used to it."
"Wait a minute, I'll go with you."
After saying that, Zhao Tianshan ran to the dormitory without looking back. He would have to fetch water later. Carrying a big gun on his back was a bit inconvenient, and he also had to go to the camp to fetch the water fetcher.
thing.
After a while, Zhao Tianshan left and returned, carrying a pole on his shoulders like Li Jie.
"Let's go, Old Feng, to fetch some water."
As Li Jie walked, he joked: "You really can't sit still."
Zhao Tianshan perfectly transformed into a repeater and fired back.
"Aren't you the same?"
The morning sun was rising, and as one person woke up one by one, the deserted camp finally became more lively.
Not long after, a plume of smoke rose over the camp. Wei Fugui took out the white flour that he had treasured for a long time. He was going to make white flour steamed buns for everyone this morning.
In fact, if conditions permit, Wei Fugui would like to make steamed buns, and big meat buns at that. However, it is difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice. The meat reserve on the dam has long been exhausted, and only a small piece of dried wolf meat is left.
Dried meat cannot be used as filling.
"It smells so good."
Qin Xuemei pushed open the door and walked into the cafeteria. She smelled the aroma of wheat wafting in the room and couldn't help but sigh.
Immediately, she turned to look at Wei Fugui who was busy in the kitchen.
"Master Wei, what are you doing? It smells so good."
Wei Fugui wiped the steam from his hands and replied with a smile: "Hey, it's not something good, just steamed buns."
Tan Xuemei shrugged her nose: "Is it a white-faced steamed bun?"
Wei Fugui nodded: "Yes."
After receiving an affirmative answer, Tan Xuemei swallowed subconsciously. She hadn't eaten white-flour steamed buns in a long time.
The last time I ate white flour steamed buns was when I first came to the dam.
Tan Xuemei never thought that one day she would be looking forward to eating a meal of white flour steamed buns.
"Ah, it smells so good."
At this moment, Ji Xiurong also walked in. She smelled the aroma in the room and let out the same emotion as Tan Xuemei.
Tick tock!
Tick tock!
Time passed slowly, and the college students and members of the advance team all walked into the cafeteria smelling the smell.
Knowing that they were eating white flour steamed buns this morning, everyone had happy smiles on their faces.
They almost vomit after eating oatmeal and steamed buns every day, especially college students. They had never experienced such suffering when they were in school.
Shen Mengyin looked around but didn't find that familiar figure. When she looked again, she found that the captain was not there either, so she said in surprise.
"Hey, where are the captain and Feng Cheng?"
After such a reminder, everyone discovered this fact.
Meng Yue smiled and said jokingly: "Is the captain and Feng Cheng still sleeping in?"
As they talked, everyone's eyes unconsciously turned to the advance team, because except for 'Feng Cheng', the other previous team members all lived in the same house.
"How is that possible?"
"Absolutely not!"
"I came here this morning, but the captain disappeared."
"The captain may have gone to work. When I woke up in the morning, I found a pair of buckets missing from the warehouse."
After being looked at by the college students, everyone immediately started to refute.
In their eyes, how could such a diligent person as the captain sleep in, although they all heard the joke in Meng Yue's mouth.
But this kind of joke should not be made on the captain.
Don't tell me, everyone really pieced together Zhao Tianshan's whereabouts with each other's words.
What about the promised vacation?
The captain secretly ran to fetch water!
Now that we know the whereabouts of the captain, what 'Feng Cheng' did there will naturally come to light.
They both must have gone together.
After learning this result, Tan Xuemei was greatly shocked, and then she made a decisive decision and said to her best friend beside her.
"Meng Yue, I won't be attending the reading club later. I'm going to help too."
Meng Yue nodded vigorously: "Well, I won't participate either. I'll go with you later."
After hearing the conversation between the two, Shen Mengyin hesitated for a while and finally took a day off. She really wanted to have a good rest.
However, seeing everyone working so hard, she began to waver.
'The situation in my family is not good to begin with. I cannot covet comfort. I want to be an activist.'
When she thought of this, Shen Mengyin weakly raised her hand and whispered.
"I...I'll go too."
Ji Xiurong, who was sitting opposite the three people, couldn't help but roll his eyes when he saw this scene.
have to!
Today's vacation is in vain.
Qin Xuemei and the other three have gone, how can I not go?
On the other side, Wu Yansheng, who was at the next table, heard the girls' conversation and suddenly felt very disappointed. Even the white-flour steamed buns on his lips no longer tasted good.
This boy had made a lot of preparations for today's poetry reading. As a result, his enthusiasm was doused with cold water before he had time to shine.
The real owner (referring to Qin Xuemei) won’t participate, so what’s the point of his participation?
'Damn it!'
At this moment, Wu Yansheng even began to wonder whether Zhao Tianshan did this on purpose.
As for the purpose of doing this, of course I don't want them to have a peaceful holiday.
Perhaps, 'Feng Cheng' is also involved in this. He must be jealous of my 'poetic talent' and doesn't want me to shine in front of everyone!
That’s right!
That's for sure!
As soon as breakfast time passed, not only Qin Xuemei and the other female generals set out, but the others also followed them to pick up their errands and set off towards the water collection point.
About ten minutes later, Yu Zhenglai and Qu He arrived at the camp. Looking at the empty camp, the two couldn't help but look at each other.
Why is there no one in the camp this early in the morning?
