Why does Sun Zhengguo seem familiar with this big shot in front of him?
This is because in his previous life, he frequently watched short videos on Douyin (TikTok) and saw this face in them.
Although the general had already passed away by then, he could still recognize this big shot.
If he wasn't mistaken, this big shot was the leader of that mysterious unit whose name started with the number 8, and the Uncle Yang that Ning Dazhuang had mentioned earlier should be another leader.
Although the former is currently a senior colonel, he will be promoted to major general in a few years and will also be among the founding major generals.
Uncle Yang was even more remarkable; he rose to the rank of general and lived until 2020.
Now, this big shot was standing right in front of him, which really surprised Sun Zhengguo.
However, after recognizing the big shot's identity, Sun Zhengguo did not move forward. Instead, he retreated to the back of the crowd to avoid attracting attention.
After greeting the Ning family and his old subordinates, this big shot searched through the crowd and waved to Ning Xiaowei when he spotted her.
"What? You little girl, you've grown up and become distant. Even when Uncle Zhang comes, you don't say a word."
Ning Xiaowei, who was pregnant, hadn't pushed her way forward, but now that she'd been called out, she felt embarrassed and walked over.
"Hello Uncle Zhang, there were too many people here just now, so I didn't dare to push forward. I hope you'll forgive me."
After Ning Xiaowei finished speaking, she touched her belly, the meaning of which was self-evident.
"Not bad, not bad. When you first came here, you were just a little girl. So many years have passed in the blink of an eye. The little girl has grown up and is almost a mother!"
"Hahaha……."
Hearing everyone laughing, Ning Xiaowei felt a little embarrassed.
However, the commander had no intention of letting her off the hook, and pretended to be angry.
"What? I didn't get to drink at your wedding banquet? Aren't you going to introduce your spouse to Uncle Zhang?"
Upon hearing this, Sun Zhengguo, who had retreated to the back of the crowd, didn't know how to describe his feelings.
In short, it must be very bad. He was certain that this matter was related to his brother-in-law.
Otherwise, why would such a high-ranking official seek out a commoner like him?
Now that the leader has called out my name, it wouldn't be right to hide in the back.
So Sun Zhengguo took a few steps forward and came to the leader. Before he could speak, the leader's two bodyguards quickly came out and blocked the leader's way.
"What are you doing? If you have nothing to do, step aside!"
The two guards wanted to say something more, but after being glared at by their superior, they could only obediently step aside.
"You are Sun Zhengguo. You have been practicing martial arts since you were a child. You are very skilled in martial arts and you are also a college student."
Sun Zhengguo has already confirmed that it was all thanks to his brother-in-law, but there's no point in saying anything now, so he can only bite the bullet and say it.
"You must be Uncle Zhang? I've heard Xiaowei mention you. We didn't invite any guests when we had our wedding, so we didn't want to bother you. We hope you'll forgive us!"
Sun Zhengguo said a lot of nice things, and then quietly looked at this Uncle Zhang.
"Not bad, not bad. You speak politely, are highly educated, and have good martial arts skills. No wonder Dazhuang has mentioned you several times. So, how about it? Are you interested in joining the army?"
Sun Zhengguo knew his brother-in-law was a menace; he must be tired of living too comfortably.
Saying no would be too risky and could easily offend people, but saying yes would be unbearable because of the constraints.
After hesitating for a moment, Sun Zhengguo smiled wryly.
"Uncle Zhang, I'm still in school! It's not appropriate for me to make any decisions right now."
"Um!"
Uncle Zhang gave a perfunctory reply and then said nothing more.
Sun Zhengguo knew that this matter was not over yet, but there was nothing he could do to stop it. He could only let things take their course and see how things went.
The banquet officially began only after Chief Zhang arrived.
As a representative of the military and an elder, Uncle Zhang not only gave a speech on stage, but also served as the officiant at Lin Dazhuang's wedding.
It's clear how much Uncle Zhang values Ning Dazhuang.
After officiating the wedding, Ning Dazhuang announced the official start of the banquet, and He Yushui, who had already prepared the food, began to serve it on the table.
There were three tables of people in total today. After several dishes were served, the father and daughter started cooking again.
Today, everyone who came was one of our own. When they saw the delicious dishes on the table, they were only slightly surprised, but they all pretended to be nonchalant and continued to enjoy their meal.
After all, such opportunities are rare, so who would turn down delicious food?
After several rounds of drinks and dishes, Ning Dazhuang and his wife started toasting again.
Uncle Zhang happily drank the glass of wine, offered his best wishes, and of course, received a red envelope.
After Lin Dazhuang finished toasting, Uncle Zhang sat for a while longer before preparing to leave, since the nature of their military unit did not allow him to linger outside for too long.
However, before leaving, he whispered a few words to the guard next to him, and no one knows what they said.
After listening, the guard nodded and walked straight toward Sun Zhengguo.
When Sun Zhengguo saw the guards walking towards him, he knew trouble was brewing.
Sure enough, the guard came over and whispered a few words in his ear.
After the guards left, Mr. and Mrs. Sun were still wondering why these people wanted to see their son.
"Mom and Dad, you eat first. Uncle Zhang wants to talk to me about something. I'll be right back."
"Okay! Then watch your words, and don't offend anyone."
After Sun Dajiang finished giving his instructions, Sun Zhengguo nodded, stood up, and walked out of the courtyard.
Seeing this, Ning Dazhuang followed with a grin, and the group arrived at the open space next to the courtyard.
"Kid, Da Zhuang always says you're amazing. Don't mind showing us how it's done?"
After Uncle Zhang finished speaking, he gave a wink to the guard next to him before Sun Zhengguo could even agree.
Upon receiving the commander's order, the guard immediately approached Sun Zhengguo.
"Practicing alone is no fun. I'll spar with you for a bit."
Sun Zhengguo was speechless when he saw the burly bodyguard.
These soldiers are really stubborn; once they decide to do something, they just do it. Did I agree? You have to spar with me a few times.
However, Sun Zhengguo was also holding back his anger. He thought to himself, "I was eating peacefully there and didn't do anything to offend anyone."
But you guys are something else. Just to get me to fight, I have to agree, the kind of thing where I can't refuse.
Sun Zhengguo didn't say anything, he just looked at Uncle Zhang standing to the side.
"It's alright, don't worry! My bodyguards are all veterans; they'll know their limits and won't hurt you."
Well, it seems that Uncle Zhang also misunderstood his meaning; Sun Zhengguo was afraid of hurting him.
Since you've come here so eagerly to be abused, Sun Zhengguo has no choice but to grant their request.
As for what it means to hide one's talents?
Sun Zhengguo stated that these two words are not in the dictionary of martial arts practitioners.
Anyway, I'm not worried about having too much debt or too many lice; I'll deal with it after I win the battle.
