Chapter 352: First visit to the compound, this brother is really unreliable
Li Haifeng originally thought very well that he would convey the news of his sister’s return home, so he can be considered a small contributor at home today. ?
But now I hear what grandma means.
The old man’s information channels are much more powerful than his few channels.
How did he know that there was a certain brigade commander and a certain brigade political commissar before Li Haiyao came back.
I was so worried that my scalp was losing hair, so I finally gritted my teeth and made the call to report in advance.
After returning home, Li Haifeng stayed with his grandma for a while, then walked around to the front of the building to see the boyfriend his sister had brought back.
Of the old man’s four sons, his second uncle serves as political commissar in the 1st Guard Division of the Kyoto Garrison District. It is relatively close to here and he should be able to make it back in the afternoon.
The remaining three sons, including Li Haiyao's father, and mother are unable to come back temporarily due to their workplace.
However, even if they come back, their opinions will be of little use in front of the old man.
As the old man's favorite granddaughter, Li Haiyao, Li Haifeng knew very well that as long as his grandfather nodded, the whole family would no longer have different opinions.
Li Haiyao knew it in her heart, so she took Chen Jun to the base camp at the first stop.
As the estimated time gets closer.
Li Haifeng squatted on the aisle outside the yard, his eyes glancing out of the gate from time to time.
He is quite curious about his future cousin-in-law. He has also heard his father mention that this boy is quite capable.
inside the house.
Li Zhenhua was reading the newspaper. He seemed to have a premonition that it was almost time, so he looked up at the clock hanging on the wall.
After pondering for a moment, he folded the newspaper in his hand and placed it on the coffee table next to him.
Getting up and smoothing out the wrinkled sofa cushions, the old man himself moved to the mahogany chair beside him.
Pick up the newspaper again.
But I haven’t watched it for even a minute.
The old man put down the newspaper again, stared at the tea set on the coffee table, stood up and straightened the tea set.
Until it is placed horizontally and vertically without any flaws.
On weekdays, he is quite a dignified leader.
At this moment, he is like an ordinary old man, focusing on his own furnishings.
He was not thinking about his granddaughter's boyfriend. The boy was quite famous in the military. Li Zhenhua had naturally heard of him, and he usually paid close attention to the progress of the military reform pilot camp.
But there is no talk of work at home.
Li Zhenhua was greeting his granddaughter, and the boy was just there by the way, or so he felt.
On the road a few kilometers away from the compound.
A military vehicle is driving fast.
Chen Jun was sitting in the back seat of the vehicle, still holding the wine jar in his arms.
The main reason is that without holding this thing, he doesn’t know where to put his hands.
That guy, sitting in the back row, his back straighter than rebar.
There is no doubt that Chen Jun is still feeling uneasy at this time.
After coming out of Kyoto Airport, Chen Jun originally thought about asking someone to store the wine and tea at the airport. He took Li Haiyao to the nearby area to see if he could buy something else.
At any rate, don't take four. This number is not pleasant to say, but it also seems too stingy.
Buy something else as much as possible.
As for what the soldiers in the camp bought when setting off, he didn’t take them with him. It wasn’t that he didn’t like them, but as the battalion commander, he shouldn’t have accepted them.
Who knows the plan has not been implemented yet.
The person in charge of reception entered the airport early.
When Chen Jun and Li Haiyao got off the ladder of the plane, someone came over and led them into the car. After receiving the consigned gifts, they went straight to Li Haiyao's house.
The driver was also wearing a military uniform, but he was not very talkative.
At a glance, Chen Jun felt that the other person looked more like a soldier than himself.
It seems that we are getting closer and closer to our destination.
Chen Jun himself was in a hurry. He didn’t buy anything and didn’t change into his military uniform. Political Commissar Xu had told him before departure, so he went there in his military uniform and the armband of the 179th Brigade.
Now, the plan was all in disarray.
“We’re here.”
When the vehicle began to slow down slowly, Li Haiyao said softly, and then she raised her hand to help Chen Jun point to the guard booth at the entrance of the compound ahead. .
After Li Haiyao finished speaking, the comrade in charge of driving quickly stopped the car. The other party did not speak at all.
After getting off the car, he directly opened the back door, took the wine jar Chen Jun was holding, and placed it gently on the ground.
Immediately afterwards, five or six armed guards came out of the security booth and began to work in an orderly manner. Some drove their cars into the compound, while others squatted on the ground to check the inspection-free label on the wine jar.
After confirming that there is no problem with the inspection-free label, he will pick up the wine jar and roughly estimate the weight.
The security staff seemed very professional.
After Li Haiyao got out of the car, she gently held Chen Jun's arm with both hands and whispered: "Don't worry, this is a routine inspection, we can go in later."< br>
“Well, I’m not worried.”
Chen Jun grinned.
At this time, a captain who was leading the guard booth, who should be a captain or something, stepped forward and politely extended his hand to shake Chen Jun's hand.
Li Haiyao let go of his arms and stood quietly aside.
“Hello comrade, I’m here for a routine inspection. I hope you can understand me.”
After greeting Chen Jun with a smile, the guard captain turned to look at Li Haiyao: “Captain Li, it’s been a long time. Missing, the chief is at home today.”
"Ah?!"
"My grandpa is at home?"
When Li Haiyao heard this, her originally calm face suddenly showed a hint of joy.
She obviously knew the other person, raised her finger and pointed at Chen Jun and said: "This is my friend, he is also a soldier."
"If my grandfather is at home, can you let my friend guard you? Please change your military uniform.”
"Of course!!"
The guard captain was not surprised at all. Although Chen Jun was wearing a white baseball cap, his hair style could not be seen.
But it may not be easy for others to see where others are standing, but these guards can tell at a glance that Chen Jun is also a soldier.
There is a small lounge next to the duty room of the guard hall, where people on duty at night will rest.
It happened to be empty at this time.
Li Haiyao spoke up, and the guard captain was not stupid. Although the chief's granddaughter was introduced as a friend, who would lead a normal friend here?
Just think about it and you know it is the right person.
“Xiao Zhao.”
“Here!!”
“Go take this comrade and go to our lounge to change clothes.”
"Yes!!"
The captain spoke. Chen Jun simply checked his pockets and the backpack on his back, and then led him into the lounge in the courtyard.
Maybe the guard captain also felt a little embarrassed when he saw the chief's future grandson-in-law being searched like this.
He sneered and said to Li Haiyao: "Well, Captain Li, if this friend of yours will come here often in the future, please report it to the chief."
"As long as the chief gives Make a call at the gate and we will register. It will be convenient for you to come over next time.”
The guard captain was right. As long as the chief ordered registration, Chen Jun's information and photos would be entered at the gate.
All the comrades on duty will quickly memorize these information, including photos. It doesn’t matter whether they are from their group or not next time, and they will not stop them again.
"Well, I will tell grandpa, but my friend works far away from here and may not come here often."
Li Haiyao politely responded to the other party's reminder. The captain of the guard didn't say anything more, he just arranged for someone to hold the wine jar and jade can of tea, and they could go there together after Chen Jun changed his clothes.
At first, no one was surprised when they heard that Chen Jun was a soldier, because they could tell.
I thought that at most he was just like Li Haiyao, probably a captain. After all, that too young face was still there.
But when Chen Jun actually changed into a winter uniform and came out of the lounge, a group of guards nearby were really surprised when they saw the two bars and two stars on his shoulders.
Especially the guard captain, when he saw Chen Jun changing into military uniform, he felt as if he was a different person.
The two rows of dark blue qualification seals are also inlaid with two star emblems.
Look at the armband again. This is not a civilian cadre in an agency, but a battalion-level cadre of a front-line combat unit.
There are too many great people in the garrison area.
But with Chen Jun’s appearance, he looks like he is in his mid-twenties at most. It’s rare to see someone of this level.
The guard captain didn't know Chen Jun's actual age, but he had this surprised look on his face.
Li Haiyao still raised her chin happily.
She then walked up to Chen Jun: "Then let's go in."
"Well, okay."
Chen Jun naturally noticed the people around him, and his vigilance just now disappeared. Replaced by surprise.
But he is not in the mood to pay attention to the thoughts of the comrades in the guard, and he is only thinking about how to break through the barrier next.
Chen Jun heard just now that the chief was in this courtyard.
Li Haiyao leads the way.
The guard was responsible for holding the wine jar, but Chen Jun had his hands free, with a slightly unnatural look on his face.
He followed the crowd and walked on the quiet path.
To say that she is not nervous would be a lie. Li Haiyao has never said who her grandfather is or what position he holds.
But Chen Jun could guess this kind of thing just by guessing, not to mention that Political Commissar Xu had confirmed it for him.
When they passed through a large sycamore tree, Li Haifeng, who was squatting and smoking on the roadside, heard a noise.
He stretched his head and took a look, and noticed that there were many people walking by, so he knew that his sister was back.
Throw the cigarette in your hand on the ground and stamp it out.
Li Haifeng immediately stood up and straightened out his somewhat wrinkled military uniform, using the leaves to cover his body, pretending to look like he had just come out of home.
He walked towards the crowd.
"Brother?"
"You are at home."
Li Haiyao shouted happily when she saw her uncle's cousin. This girl works in the archives department of the Political Department of the Western Theater Command. The time is not short.
Later, she stayed in Brigade 179 for half a year, and she hadn’t seen her family for a long time.
"Brother, let me introduce to you, his name is Chen Jun, he is my friend."
Li Haiyao took the initiative to introduce Chen Jun without waiting for his cousin to speak.
Chen Jun was a little confused by this "brother" who suddenly came out. He had never been to the woman's house and had no decent experience.
When I was hesitating whether to call "brother" with Li Haiyao or "comrade".
Unexpectedly, this brother whom I met for the first time did not follow the routine at all.
He had no intention of talking to Chen Jun at all. He just glanced at him with a smile, turned around and shouted, "Grandma, grandma, come out quickly, Yaoyao is back."
"Her boyfriend, Yaoyao, has brought his friends back."
As long as Li Haiyao, the "Dinghai Shenzhen", returns home, Li Haifeng won't worry about the old man blaming him.
Besides, there is still that boy Chen Jun standing in front of us.
I am the transparent type at the old man's place today. After dinner, he planned to pat his butt and run back to the work.
So this will be very courageous.
You sister.
Chen Jun was quite speechless by this sudden movement.
On the surface, he was looking up at the sycamore tree while the brother and sister were greeting each other.
In fact, what's the point of looking at these leaves?
He was panicking inside, and he was panicking inexplicably.
Even the pace involuntarily slowed down a lot.
But, it’s not enough to be slow.
After Li Haifeng roared twice, an old lady with gray hair walked out of the small white building wearing a very ordinary cotton and linen clothes with a kind smile.
It is Li Haiyao’s grandmother, Wang Lanfang.
The old lady had never been in the military. Before she retired, she was a professor at a university in Kyoto. Her gray hair looked like she was in her sixties, and she did not seem to look older.
But grandma's actual age is already over seventy-five, but she didn't suffer much when she was young, so it's not easy to tell.
She is older than her husband. There was no free love in those days. They were all introduced by organizations, and many of them had never even met before getting married.
The old lady has never had a daughter in her life. She is similar to the old man, except that she prefers her granddaughter. The preference of the older generation can be written directly on her face.
Otherwise, how could Li Haifeng be so excited?
Wang Lanfang came out of the house and Li Haiyao saw her grandma. She quickly ran to him and gave her a gentle hug. Her eyes were red and she said, "Grandma, I miss you."
"Okay, okay, just come back, good boy!!"
Wang Lanfang raised her hand to touch her granddaughter's head, and looked at Chen Jun with a smile: "Quickly, come home, kid, just stand outside and do it stupidly. Well."
"Yaoyao, call your friend in, Xiaofeng, don't stand there like that."
"Hey, hey, okay!"
Li Haifeng agreed and walked towards the house.
Li Haiyao raised his hand to rub his eyes and introduced with some embarrassment.
"Grandma, this is my friend, his name is Chen Jun."
"Chen Jun, this is my grandma."
The guard holding a drink next to him looked at Seeing the family reunited, he put the drinks by the door with great discernment, turned around and left.
“Hello grandma!!”
The smile on Chen Jun's face almost blossomed, but he was a little embarrassed, mainly because he had too few things prepared.
Although the wine is good, it looks rustic.
Although the tea is fragrant, it is small and a bit too shabby after all.
The key is that he did not buy these with money, and his intentions are really not in place.
Wang Lanfang didn't pay much attention to those gifts at all. Their family didn't lack them, and they didn't care whether the children came with them or not.
Hearing Chen Jun also shout: "Grandma."
Wang Lanfang nodded with satisfaction: "You're welcome, kid, it's just like coming to your own home. Come on, come in."
< br>Just when the door was busy.
The old man stepped out of the house.
But the difference from before was that when the old man was reading the newspaper, the ordinary winter coat he was wearing had been replaced by a military uniform.
Although there are still no embellishments on the clothes, there is an oncoming momentum.
Still very compelling.
Chen Jun was already raising his feet to follow him into the house, when he raised his head and saw the person coming.
He hurriedly retracted his stepped foot and his face straightened.
Stand at attention and salute: "Hello, Chief!!"
