On the shelf in front, there was a butterfly hair clip with wings that swayed back and forth when it moved. Zhuang Mingcheng found it interesting and bought another one for his wife.

He also bought a red silk scarf...

After a while, the two of them wandered around the department store several times.

Hao Dazhuang's arms gradually filled with things.

...

No one in the surrounding department store could help but glance at the two of them.

The two men were dressed in military uniforms. The man in front was tall and imposing, and his jacket had four pockets, clearly indicating that he was a military officer. It was just a pity that one of his arms was in a sling.

As for what comes after...

Yes, it's a man, and he's carrying quite a lot of things.

Sweat beaded on Hao Dazhuang's forehead. He felt like he could barely hold on, and his legs were aching. He had never been this tired during training.

"Commander... how much longer?"

Zhuang Mingcheng turned around and couldn't help but laugh. "Dazhuang, you need to be quick-witted. Go and move these things to the car outside, then come back with me."

"Ah...you still want to buy more? No wonder your sister-in-law says you're a spendthrift."

Hao Dazhuang muttered a few words under his breath.

Seeing Zhuang Mingcheng glaring at him, he quickly turned and ran away.

"You brat!"

Zhuang Mingcheng noticed some dried seafood in the counter and quickly walked over.

The salted fish my wife and I bought in the provincial capital last time tasted good, so I'll buy more this time.

When Hao Dazhuang returned, his arms were full of things again, and he left reluctantly.

We returned to the assembly point in a military jeep, where everyone from the company had arrived.

The group boarded a train and headed towards the Qilian Mountains.

It was already evening, and by the time the train arrived in the county town, it was just getting light.

Outside the train station, the regiment's military vehicles were all waiting.

Gao Dajiang stood in front of the car, having come specifically to pick them up.

Seeing Zhuang Mingcheng approaching with his men, he quickly stepped forward.

"Xiao Zhuang, what happened to your arm?"

"A bullet graze, Commander, it's nothing."

Gao Dajiang sighed and patted Zhuang Mingcheng on the shoulder, "You've worked hard."

Turning to the soldiers, he said, "Comrades, you've worked hard. You've made the regiment proud. The military region's commendation order is on its way!"

"Commander, it's no trouble at all!"

The soldiers shouted in unison, and smiles appeared on their faces.

"Okay, get in the car quickly. I've already called the cafeteria and they've prepared everything for you. You can eat as soon as you get back."

Gao Dajiang waved his hand, signaling the soldiers to get into the military vehicle.

"Huh? What's this?"

He was a little surprised to see Hao Dazhuang carrying a sack.

Forehead……

Zhuang Mingcheng was a little embarrassed, so he quickly stepped forward and explained, "Commander, this is fertilizer that I bought from the leaders of the chemical industry base in the provincial capital."

"fertilizer?"

"It's fertilizer powder, manure concentrate."

Gao Dajiang turned to look at Zhuang Mingcheng, then asked curiously, "What's that you're holding in your arms?"

"My wife is pregnant, so I brought her some things from the provincial capital."

Zhuang Mingcheng blushed slightly, becoming even more embarrassed.

"So many of them? That must have cost a lot of money!"

"Um... I finally made it to the provincial capital, so I bought a bit more."

"You didn't just buy too much!"

Gao Dajiang's lips twitched slightly.

I never imagined that the tough guy in my unit would turn into a spendthrift husband who dotes on his wife.
