Gao Weijun was a few months younger than Duofu, but older than Duolu and others.
Duolu has been interested in martial arts since he was a child. When he heard Gao Weijun say that the soldiers were very strong, his competitive spirit was aroused again, and he wanted to go in and spar with them.
Yu Rujia: "The military has many requirements. Every word and action must be done properly. If you, a mischievous monkey who jumps around, go there, you will only cause trouble."
They can only stay here for ten more days at most before they have to leave. Military training isn't something they can just come and go as they please.
Duolu pleaded, "Auntie, please let me go. I will definitely follow your instructions."
Gao Shujing, who came in from outside, asked, "Where is Duolu going?"
Duolu turned and followed him: "Uncle, I heard from Brother Weimin that you used to train with the soldiers when you were young. I want to go too."
Gao Shujing: "If you can guarantee that you will follow orders when you get there, and that no matter how hard or tiring it is, you must do as the instructors say, I can try to apply."
Yu Rujia didn't quite agree: "Shujing, we won't be staying here for long, there's no need to cause trouble for others."
Gao Shujing: "I'll give it a try, it's no trouble."
Many children in the military region have been training with senior soldiers since they were young. The military does not arrange special training programs for the children; they are all trained by following the senior soldiers.
If you can keep up, then keep up; if you can't, then come back on your own. There are no hard and fast rules.
Worried that Yu Rujia would object, Duolu hurriedly pulled Gao Shujing away, thinking that since she couldn't see what they were talking about, it might actually work out.
On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, the troops resumed their daily training. Apart from Duoyi, who could barely walk, all the children in the family, including Duole, who was just over five years old, went with them.
Gao Shujing went to buy groceries, leaving Yu Rujia and a cute, pink-clad girl at home.
Duoyi, with his chubby little body, wobbled around, leaning against the wall. His big eyes looked around, searching for something, but he didn't seem to find what he wanted. His little brows furrowed.
Yu Rujia, who was always watching him closely, asked, "What is Duoyi looking for?"
Duoyi said in a pitiful voice, "Brother, brother, he's gone."
Duo Yi was quite unaccustomed to the fact that all the older brothers who usually surrounded her were nowhere to be seen today.
Yu Rujia reached out and pulled the little boy over: "The older brothers went to practice martial arts. They'll be back when they're done."
When they were in the Shangfen Brigade, Duofu and the others could practice martial arts in the backyard, while Duoyi could sit in his cradle and direct Huajuan and Mantou to pull him over to watch them practice.
Xia Taishun's place is too small, the yard is only a few dozen square meters, and if a few more people stand here, they can't stretch their arms straight. When a few children come over here, they relax.
The little ones, with their many talents, forgot about their martial arts training.
Upon hearing her mother mention this, Duoyi's big eyes darted around: "Juanjuan? Caicai? Go away, go away."
They grew vegetables in their backyard. Having only been in Jiangcheng for a few days, the little guy still had some impression of the backyard of the Shangfen Brigade. He thought that Duofu and the others went to the backyard to practice martial arts, and he kept asking Huajuan to take him there.
Little did he know that Jiangcheng was over a thousand miles away from Shangfen Brigade.
Yu Rujia held the little boy in her arms and kissed his soft little face: "Huajuan isn't here yet. The older brothers will be back soon. How about Duoyi, my little darling, plays with Mommy?"
Duoyi immediately forgot about her brother and started playing with Yu Rujia, giggling all the while.
When Duofu and the others returned for lunch, they saw a small pink figure peering out from the gate as soon as they entered the courtyard. When the little one saw them, her eyes lit up, and she waddled toward them on her short legs.
Duo Yi's legs were unsteady, and after taking only two steps, his little body fell to the ground. Yu Rujia, who was beside him, picked him up in time, preventing him from falling and getting hurt.
Duo Yi, however, didn't seem to appreciate Yu Rujia's efforts at all, and continued to kick his chubby little legs, trying to run towards his brothers.
Seeing that it couldn't walk, it stretched out its short, chubby arms and called out in a childish voice, "Big brother, second brother, third brother..."
Before he could finish calling out "Brother," Duolu had already darted in front of him, reaching out to hug the little dumpling, grinning as he asked, "Was Duoyi waiting for us?"
Duoyi nodded her little head and complained pitifully, "Second brother, brother, he's gone, he's gone."
His appearance is so heartbreaking.
Duoxi stepped forward and patted his little head: "I'm sorry, Duoyi, your older brothers have gone to training. When Duoyi is a little older, your fourth brother will train you."
Dorje and Dole were too young, and a morning of training exhausted them. Dorje was okay, managing to persevere to the last step, but Dole collapsed after training for most of the morning.
Although they started practicing martial arts at the age of three, they only needed to practice for three hours a day. As for internal energy, they practiced it cross-legged on the bed for at least one hour every day.
The most physically demanding training sessions are one and a half hours in the morning and one and a half hours in the evening.
The training intensity for the two little ones was not as high as that of the military, and they didn't even have a break in between.
The sudden attack, coupled with the prohibition against using internal energy, caused the two children to collapse, and they were helped back by Duofu and Duoshou respectively.
The two little ones lay motionless on the sofa, panting, their little faces full of exhaustion.
Yu Rujia took their pulses and said they were exhausted: "Can you still handle the training in the army?"
Speaking of this, Duolu became excited: "Auntie, the training in the army is so interesting! I like it. When I grow up, I want to join the army and train here."
Military training is tiring, but in this tense and solemn atmosphere, everyone is giving their all to pass one severe test after another, and to endure deafening slogans.
All of this made Doro's blood boil, and he wished he could train with them every day.
Duofu's little face showed some pride: "Except for Duoji and Duole, the rest of us can keep up with the training. The coach said we are good candidates for the army and let us sign up when we are old enough."
"Unfortunately, I'm more interested in making things. I want to build the fastest and smoothest car, not something I should be doing as a soldier."
He wasn't interested in joining the army, but being praised was always a good thing.
Duoshou: "I didn't agree either. I want to become a doctor like my aunt."
Duoxi: "Auntie, I want to join the army with my second brother."
This little guy has been Dorje's follower since he was a child, and even after ten years, he still likes to run around behind Dorje.
Yu Rujia: "Your ideas are all great. Your aunt is very proud that you have dreams at such a young age."
"No matter what you choose to do in the future, you need to focus on your current tasks while you are training in the military. Follow the military training diligently. Can you do that?"
