"Thank you, Chief."

Zhang Xiangnan saluted, turned and left the front-line command center.

After returning to the base, Zhang Xiangnan did not reminisce with his colleagues, nor did he keep in touch with his subordinates, and he even did not bother to attend the celebration party.

He called his former guard, got on a military jeep, left the base, and headed north.

"Battalion Commander, I knew you wouldn't betray me. We haven't had a new battalion commander for the Second Battalion, and the political commissar Kong from the regiment has been serving concurrently.

Brothers, you all know that the position of battalion commander has always been reserved for you.

However, you have made great contributions this time and you will definitely be promoted in the future. It is definitely impossible for you to stay in the Second Battalion.

Battalion Commander, when you get promoted, you must transfer me over there!"

On the way, Zhang Xiangnan's bodyguard Li Lixin was driving and talking incessantly, and the tears on his face could not be wiped away.

"Alright! It's not like a grown man to be crying all the time. If you're not afraid of me training you too hard, just follow me."

Li Lixin has been following me since he joined the army at the age of eighteen, and is now twenty-five years old.

The old one is still more convenient to use, and Zhang Xiangnan doesn't want to change the guard if it is not necessary.

"I'm not afraid of the hard training. I sweat more during training and bleed less during battle. Brothers all know that the battalion commander is doing this for our own good and doesn't want us to die on the battlefield."

Li Lixin was very happy to hear that Zhang Xiangnan was willing to take him with him.

Except for being a living devil during training, our battalion commander is very compassionate to his subordinates at other times. A large part of his allowance is given to the families of disabled soldiers. This is no secret in the army.

The most important point is that the battalion commander is still very young and has made great contributions this time. His future is limitless.

As long as I can keep following him, I, as a guard, will be able to rise to the top.

"You drive carefully, I'll take a nap first, and I'll take over when you get tired.

Except for eating, refueling and going to the bathroom, we work non-stop day and night, trying to get home as early as possible."

After returning from northern Myanmar, Zhang Xiangnan was eager to return home and his heart had already flown back home.

Before he carried out the secret mission, he received a letter from home saying that his wife Su Hong was pregnant again.

He didn't know whether this child he had never met was the third boy or the darling girl he had been thinking about.

…

Zhang Xiangnan worked day and night, while Zhang Shuguang drank himself to death at his grandmother's house.

Upon learning that Zhang Shuguang had a job and could support the family, his four uncles no longer treated him as a child and dragged their eldest nephew out to drink until he was drunk.

"Grandpa, uncle, you really can't drink anymore. If you drink any more, you'll get drunk."

What I drank at noon today was the ration wine that my grandfather's family brewed themselves when there was enough food.

The only characteristic is that it is powerful enough.

"Nephew, you must drink with your uncle again. Your uncle is almost fifty years old this year. Your grandparents are still in good health. Their son and daughter-in-law are filial and capable. They have grandchildren. The only thing they are worried about is your mother.

Your mother is my only sister. Although she has been spoiled since childhood, she has never suffered any hardship.

After your father got into trouble, she refused to come home no matter what. In the past three years, she has suffered hardships she has never experienced in her entire life.

Now, my eldest nephew has grown up and can take care of your mother and your younger brothers and sisters.

Uncle is happy, he has never been so happy before, let’s have another drink together.”

Uncle Su Zhenshan held Zhang Shuguang's hand and expressed his true feelings.

"Brother, you are drunk, why are you telling the child anything?"

In front of his children, his eldest brother asked her to divorce and go back to her parents' home, which made Su Hong feel a little embarrassed.

"I'm not drunk. I'm telling the truth. We made a mistake in choosing such a man for you."

"Brother is right. I just can't get him. If he dares to appear in front of me now, do you think I can beat him to death?"

"I told you back then that when choosing a man for your sister, you shouldn't pick one who's too good-looking. He's unreliable, but you didn't listen. Do you regret it now?"

"He's caused our sister so much suffering. It's better if he doesn't come back in this lifetime, otherwise this matter will never end."

More than three years have passed, and when the four brothers-in-law mention their brother-in-law Zhang Xiangnan, they still hate him to the core.

After all, the cousins ​​were younger generations, so when their father and uncles denounced their uncle, they did not respond out of consideration for their aunt's face.

"Four uncles, you're all right. If my father ever comes back, I'll be the first to avenge my mother."

The enemy is numerous and we are few, so if we can't beat them, we should join them. Zhang Shuguang joined his uncle's camp without hesitation.

My sister has suffered so much, she can't help but complain.

And even though my grandma's family is large and powerful, they have never been unreasonable.

Back then, they only thought of taking their daughter back because they were afraid that she would suffer in Zhangzhuang. However, no matter how much resentment they had towards their father, they never took it out on their grandparents and still loved the three siblings very much.

"My nephew is right. Your uncles' love for you is not in vain, and your mother's suffering over the years is not in vain."

After Zhang Shuguang said this, it suited the uncles' appetite even more, and they pulled him to drink again.

In the end, it was only after grandma Hu Qiaozhen scolded the uncles that the drinking party was barely ended.

Zhang Shuguang did not favor one over the other and also told my grandmother's family about the possibility of purchasing mountain products. My grandmother's family was naturally very happy to hear that.

My grandmother's family started making tofu before liberation, and several of my uncles worked as peddlers going from door to door. I have the gene for doing business in my bones.

Now I have closed the tofu shop and am working in the fields to earn work points, simply because of the shortage of food and the difficulty in purchasing beans.
