The next day, after breakfast, Zhang Shuguang accompanied Zheng Yushan to work.

After watching her enter the hospital, Zhang Shuguang, who had nothing to do, went to visit the Song family's newly built home.

On a hillside not far from Huilong Town, the site has been almost leveled and a group of people are busy building a house.

Zhang Shuguang saw that many young people were wearing brand new military uniforms, including Song Zhaohui.

"Young Patriarch, it's Master Zhang coming."

Song Chaoguang pointed in the direction Zhang Shuguang was coming from.

“It’s true.”

Song Zhaohui quickly put down what he was doing, walked a few steps and turned back.

"Remember this from now on. As long as you're wearing a military uniform, you should call me Captain Song."

"yes."

Song Chaoguang gave a military salute that was not quite standard.

"Brother Zhang, you're back from Ailao Mountain? Are Commander Zhang and the comrades from the first company back as well?"

Song Zhaohui walked quickly towards Zhang Shuguang, greeting him loudly, his tone full of joy.

"We're back! Everyone's back! You're making such a great progress! When I left, you had just started construction, and now you've built so much of the house. It looks like we'll be able to move into our new home soon."

"They are all made of bamboo and wood, so it's easy to get the materials. Plus, we have a large population and the craftsmanship has been passed down from generation to generation, so the progress will be faster."

Song Zhaohui and Zhang Shuguang walked side by side, explaining the tribal plan to him.

Along the way, no matter men, women, young or old, everyone greeted them politely when they saw them.

They had never seen Zhang Shuguang, but their name was well-known to them.

Whether in clan meetings or in private, the young clan leader Song Chaohui would often mention him and ask the clan members to remember Zhang Shuguang's kindness.

If it weren't for Zhang Shuguang, they wouldn't have the hopeful days they have today.

"Brother Song, I see you're all wearing your military uniforms. You must have enlisted, right? Why are you still building a home here? Don't the troops have any training missions?"

Zhang Shuguang asked the doubts in his mind.

"Yes, there are more than one hundred young men in our Song family, and all of them have been drafted into the army.

The commander knows we need manpower to build our new home, so he specially approved us to start training after we finish the construction. Brother Zhang, guess which regiment we were assigned to?

Song Zhaohui stroked his military uniform, his face full of pride.

"Isn't it my father's Third Regiment?"

After Song Zhaohui asked this, Zhang Shuguang was 80% sure in his heart.

"How do you know? Did the commander tell you?"

When he was first assigned to the third group, he was so happy that he thought of asking Zhang Shuguang to guess when he met him.

I didn't expect Zhang Shuguang to hit the nail on the head. It really makes me feel unfulfilled.

"Do I even need to guess? I've only been here a short time. Apart from taking you to see Grandpa Cao, I've hardly ever been to a military camp, and I don't even know a few regimental commanders.

Apart from my father, there are Captain Zheng and Captain Lei.

Since you asked me to guess, it must be related to me, so my father is the most likely person."

Zhang Shuguang never expected that the young patriarch who had always been mature and steady would have such a lively side, even a little childish.

"It seems to be true." Song Zhaohui scratched his head.

"I've been here these past few days helping everyone build their new home, and I didn't even know Commander Zhang was back. Tomorrow morning I'll go to the army and report to Commander Zhang."

Speaking of the army, it is definitely a magical place. Discipline is the most important thing in normal times, and soldiers are required to follow orders and obey absolutely.

Sometimes it is very flexible, and the emphasis is on special handling of special matters.

Take the young people of the Song family for example. They have clearly joined the army and have military status.

Normally, apart from carrying out tasks, they should train hard and are not allowed to go out unless necessary.

But Song Zhaohui and his clansmen can actually build houses here without any training.

And according to common sense, new recruits must train in the recruit company for three months and learn all kinds of knowledge before they can be assigned to the company.

But Song Zhaohui's military uniform actually has four pockets, which makes it obvious that it is a cadre uniform.

The young people who used to call him Shao Yu Zi Le Ge now call him Company Commander. It is probably because they want them to form their own company with Song Zhaohui as the company commander.

I have to say, Commander Cao is really eager to recruit talented people! He gave them great preferential treatment.

At noon, at Song Zhaohui's enthusiastic invitation, Zhang Shuguang had lunch in this unfinished village.

Fortunately, he often goes into the mountains, and sometimes he may not be able to come back by noon, so he is not afraid of his parents worrying.

In the next few days, Zhang Shuguang started to live a bad life again.

I pick up my fiancée from get off work, and when I have time, I catch some wild game and have a meal with everyone. Life is relaxing and comfortable.

A week later, Zhang Xiangnan, who had returned from the military camp, brought him a message that the engineering troops had set out and were heading towards Ailao Mountain.

"Son, I have already arranged everything for the regiment. Last time you accompanied me into Ailao Mountain, this time dad will accompany you."

His son is very capable, and Zhang Xiangnan thinks there is not much he can do for him. The only thing he can do is to accompany him as much as possible.

"No need, I can go by myself. I don't need to cut down trees, I just need to point out the direction and route. Why would you go through that trouble?

You have so much to do in your group, so just focus on your own things. When you come back, spend more time with my mother and my sister.

You missed my and Shengli's childhood. Now you have the opportunity to spend more time with your sister. You must cherish it.

Otherwise, when she goes to school or starts working, you won’t be able to keep her company even if you want to.”
