Chapter 69: Each Takes Action

After discussing with Cheng Jinghao and reporting to Political Commissar Cao, Zhao Zhigang asked Li He to accept Su Hong's gift when she came to bribe him.

Li He waited for several days and thought she would not come, but then Su Hong showed up.

"Sister-in-law." Su Hong had a flattering smile on her face.

Li He glanced at her, then at the basket in her hand, and opened the door, "Come in."

"Hey, thank you, sister-in-law." Su Hong quickly followed Li He into the main room.

"What can I do for you?" Li He floated towards her basket.

"Oh, this is a little idea from me and He Yong." Su Hong lifted the cloth on the basket.

Li He took a look and thought, wow, they are quite generous, two pieces of cloth, at least two kilograms of White Rabbit milk candy, egg cake, and a Daqianmen bag, which are not easy to buy.

"Those two pieces of cloth are for making clothes for the two children." Su Hong kept smiling.

"I'm sorry to have cost you so much." Li He looked up and motioned for her to just put it on the table. Without even pouring her a cup of tea, he went straight to the greenhouse in the backyard to water the vegetables.

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law." Su Hong obviously didn't expect Li He to be like this, and hurriedly followed her.

"What? Do you have anything else to do?" Li He turned around and looked at her.

"..." This made Su Hong confused. He took her things without asking her purpose?

But even though Li He didn't ask, Su Hong had to speak up, otherwise her gift would be given in vain.

"Sister-in-law, my husband wants to join the combat team. Let me ask you what procedures are required to join the combat team?"

"Oh, you asked the wrong person about this. The combat team is under the charge of Captain Cheng. Lao Zhao is the only one in our family who is in charge of politics. He usually doesn't talk to me about these things." Li He smiled, walked from the greenhouse into the main room, and picked up the things on the table.

When Su Hong thought that Li He would return the things to her because she couldn't do the job, Li He put the things into the cabinet in front of her.

Turning around, Li He ordered him to leave, "Do you have anything else to do?"

Su Hong glanced at Li He. After all, she was the wife of the regiment political commissar, so she couldn't say anything. She said awkwardly, "It's okay, sister-in-law. I'll go back first."

"Yes." Li He sent her to the gate of the courtyard and said in a loud voice, "Have a good walk."

Su Hong had just gone on a long trip when she happened to meet Lin Momo who was coming out of the courtyard next door.

Lin Momo looked at her and glanced at her basket. "Oh, Captain He's wife is here to see Sister Li He."

"Haha, come and visit." Su Hong was a little embarrassed. How did she run into him again? Do I have to come to the Cheng family again?

"It seems that Captain He has a good harvest." Lin Momo hinted at something. Before Su Hong could react, she glanced at her and closed the gate.

"......" Su Hong felt a little flustered. What did she mean by this?

The military's allowances are not transparent, except for the bonuses for missions.

Su Hong didn't have time to think about it, and walked back quickly. She had to wait for He Yong to come back and discuss with him what to do. The Cheng family would have to come again, so the gift would have to be more generous.

After Su Hong walked away, Li He knocked on Lin Momo's door.

"Oh, this is the first time I do this kind of thing, my heart is pounding." Li He patted his chest and said as he entered the yard.

"I don't think she will come to see you in the future." Lin Momo comforted.

The original plan was to let Li He keep Su Hong hanging, but Li He was straightforward and was afraid that he could not hide the truth. In the end, Cheng Jinghao and Zhao Zhigang discussed and decided to transfer the matter to Lin Momo.

Lin Momo has a lot of ideas, and they also involve greenhouse and planting matters, which might lead to more problems.

놙놆Cheng Jinghao asked Li He to pay more attention to these things. After all, Lin Momo was still pregnant. Li He naturally agreed.

"If this couple really bribes to join the combat team, won't our efforts be in vain?" Li He asked curiously as he helped Lin Momo into the house.

"That doesn't matter. They took out so many good things without blinking an eye. They are not good people either." Lin Momo patted her hands.

Milk powder is very precious in this era. Someone at Commander Chen's level only gets one quota per month.

Whenever Lin Momo went to buy Daqianmen cigarettes for Cheng Jinghao, she would buy them in small quantities, and only a few at most each time. That was because few people in the village bought good cigarettes, and the supply and marketing cooperative had some extra.

"You're right. We no longer exchange eggs in our farm. Where did she get those dozens of eggs?" Li He nodded repeatedly after listening to Lin Momo's analysis.

Cheng Jinghao and Zhao Zhigang had been in the Southwest Military Region for more than ten years, so they had no choice but to get some eggs. However, He Yong had just arrived, so this seemed strange.

Speaking of He Yong, he was feeling very depressed. He didn't know how his wife was doing.

He has already handed over his work these few days, but it's as if he hadn't handed it over at all.

The Southwest Military Region was a place where strength was everything, but on the first day he arrived, he was challenged by a company commander from his own battalion in front of the entire regiment.

The commander of the first company was a combat team member. Not only could he not beat him, but he also did not give any face to the other two company commanders and did not let them go at all. Although he beat two of them, he won by a narrow margin.

He was a battalion commander, but he was beaten to the ground by his company commander.

"What are you thinking about?" Suddenly a hand was placed on his shoulder.

The deputy head of the regiment who was transferred here with him, Zhang Xin.

"Nothing." He Yong shook his head. Although this man was his superior, he was also new.

Yesterday, I was also beaten down by two other battalion commanders in the regiment. They all asked for good luck.

His goal was to gain a firm foothold in the Southwest Military Region. Zhang Xin was of little help to him, and he simply wanted to pull him into his camp.

I have to say, He Yong has revealed the truth and this has a new purpose.

The other battalion commanders of the regiment were all in the same boat with Cheng Jinghao, and he had no way to stop them, so he took a fancy to He Yong who entered the military zone with him.

Unknown to the two, there were two pairs of eyes looking in their direction from a distance.

"Guess who these two are?" Zhao Zhigang asked.

"Why don't you guess the person in the office who's looking at us?" Cheng Jinghao took out two cigarettes and handed one to Zhao Zhigang.

Zhao Zhigang took the cigarette without looking up. After lighting his own cigarette, he helped Cheng Jinghao light one.

"After morning training every day, he goes into the office and doesn't do anything else, unlike these two." Like a flea.

"People like this are the most dangerous." Cheng Jinghao took a deep puff of cigarette and looked up at the person by the window.

Feng Qiang felt Cheng Jinghao's gaze and smiled at him.

Cheng Jinghao looked away and didn't give him any response.

Cheng Jinghao has all the information they have on the surface. He Yong was born in the Western Military District compound. There have been major personnel changes in the Western Military District recently. It is understandable that the He family wants to keep him as their only child.

But he is not in the Western Military Region at present, but in the Southern Military Region. He can obviously stay here, so why should he come to the Southwest?
