Chapter 111 Countdown to the New Year Holiday

Hearing that the machinery factory had five job openings, Lu Wenchan became depressed again.

Half a year had passed, and she was still a little girl who could only do odd jobs in the backstage.

Hearing that there was another job opening outside, her heart ached.

If only she had known this...

She had imagined it many times in her mind, but there were not so many "if only"s in life.

If the team leader had not said that their new batch would have the opportunity to go on stage next year, she felt that she could not hold on any longer.

This craze did not subside until the machinery factory completed its recruitment.

Time passed quickly and entered the month of Leon, and Shi Tingyu's school had already started its winter vacation.

The army's new year holiday arrangements were also announced.

Now the barracks have one day off per day, and the New Year holiday, including the two weeks of rest before and after, is a total of five days.

But it takes two days and one night to get from Jinling to Huaixian, Dong Province by train, and the time on the road can almost eat up all the vacation time.

Fortunately, Lu Weiguo has a home visit leave. Military officers who are not with their parents are entitled to a 30-day home visit leave every two years.

His most recent home visit leave was two years ago when he just came down from the battlefield.

He will never forget how he felt during his first home visit leave. He

wanted to breathe the air of his hometown and see if the tree at the gate of the steel factory's compound had grown stronger.

I hadn't been home for eight years at that time, and when I returned to the village, I almost couldn't find my grandpa's house.

The changes in the village in the past eight years are not small. The original small trees have grown stronger, the river ditch has been widened, and the old house of my grandpa where I lived in my childhood has also been renovated.

In short, everything looks familiar and strange.

He was as nervous and excited as he was last time for this family visit, because this time he would take his wife back to the place where he grew up.

He couldn't help but look forward to the feeling of revealing his hidden deep self to his lover.

Lu Weiguo discussed with Shi Tingyu and planned to go back on the 20th of the lunar month, so that he could celebrate the Lantern Festival at home.

After the discussion, Lu Weiguo went to see Captain Han for leave.

Knowing that it was the first time for Lu Weiguo to bring his wife back to his hometown, Captain Han readily approved the leave.

Lu Weiguo's vacation was relatively short, after all, he had not been back once in the past eight years.

As soon as the leave was approved, Lu Weiguo went to buy a ticket, but buying the ticket was not smooth this time.

The military has priority, but they also have to bring a dog, which is difficult to deal with.

Li Jian is a large dog. Now the railway department is not perfect in terms of pets. There is no consignment service. Pets can only follow their owners on the train, but there are many people on the train, and the staff are afraid that large dogs will hurt people.

Lu Weiguo can only come back and think of a solution.

The two of them must take Li Jian with them. They are not at ease even if they entrust it to someone else to take care of it. Moreover, Li Jian is different from ordinary dogs. It is more delicate and sensitive than ordinary dogs. Such a Li Jian is not suitable for others to take care of.

After hearing this, Shi Tingyu thought that the muzzles for dogs in the future could be made to reduce people’s fear of dogs.

She took out a pencil and drawing paper, drew a dog muzzle, and asked Lu Weiguo: "Is this thing easy to make? If it is easy to make, we can make one for Li Jian to put on his mouth. Then we can cover a soft sleeper compartment to prevent Li Jian from getting out."

Lu Weiguo thought this method was feasible. The muzzle did not look difficult to make. There were engineers in the camp with tools and materials, so it was not difficult to make one.

Because time was short, Lu Weiguo hurried to borrow tools and materials.

Nowadays, few people keep pets and take their pets on long trips by train, so few people know how to follow this procedure.

At this time, Shi Tingyu thought of a person, that is, the owner of the thief who was once caught by Li Jian, Sister Qin.

Sister Qin's family works in the Railway Bureau, and she wasn't asking for help. She just wanted to ask her about the appropriate regulations for bringing pets, and they would cooperate.

Thinking of this, Shi Tingyu began to rummage through her bag. She remembered that Sister Qin had written down their unit's phone number for her, and she had casually stuffed it into her bag.

Finally, she found the note with the phone number in the inner compartment of her bag.

Time was running out, so Shi Tingyu didn't run to the post office, but borrowed the school's phone number to call Sister Qin.

When the call was connected, Shi Tingyu felt a little regretful and embarrassed. People had given Li Jian ten pounds of meat at the time, so it would be inappropriate to ask someone for help now.

Just as she was thinking about it, the call was connected.

Sister Qin's clear and loud voice came over, "Hello, this is Jinling Railway Bureau, who are you looking for?"

Shi Tingyu cleared her throat and said, "Are you Sister Qin? I'm Shi Tingyu."

She was worried that Sister Qin had not remembered her, but unexpectedly, Sister Qin still remembered her. Her voice instantly became much warmer, "Oh, it's Comrade Shi, hello, hello."

Shi Tingyu breathed a sigh of relief, and after considering her words, she said, "Sister Qin, you work in the Railway Bureau. I have something to ask you. Is it convenient?"

"It's convenient, just ask."

Shi Tingyu told the other party about Li Jian's plan to take the train, and told her some preparations she had made, and asked, "Can we bring the dog on the train?"

Sister Qin was particularly fond of Li Jian. In the words of later generations, she had a filter for it.

When she heard that Li Jian had to wear a muzzle, she quickly said, "No need for a muzzle. I'll call the train station and you can just take it with you in the soft sleeper car." Shi

Tingyu insisted on the muzzle.

Dog lovers are not afraid of dogs, but some people are afraid of them. She can't just consider her own standpoint in everything. She also has to consider others.

When Sister Qin heard this, it would be easier to handle. People have muzzled their dogs, so why can't they get on the train? People

bring chickens and ducks on the train, so why can't people's dogs that are brave enough to do justice get on the train?

Finally, Sister Qin took charge and said, "Leave it to me. Just tell the staff when you buy the tickets. I'll let them know in advance."

Shi Tingyu was still a little dazed after hanging up the phone.

Is that it?

When Lu Weiguo came back with the muzzle, Shi Tingyu told him about Sister Qin, and Lu Weiguo was relieved.

They had no objection to spending more money on safety precautions, as long as they could take Li Jian away.

In fact, it was not that he couldn't find someone to help, as long as he could get a military dog ​​license for Li Jian, and he didn't have to buy more tickets. According to Li Jian's achievements in catching spies, these could not be considered as abusing power for personal gain.

But he didn't want to cause trouble for the troops if he could solve it himself.

After the matter was resolved, Lu Weiguo tried the muzzle on Li Jian.

Li Jian is an obedient dog. He wore a muzzle when asked to do so. However, the size of the muzzle was not suitable. Lu Weiguo took the muzzle off and readjusted it. He also carefully wrapped the wire with cotton cloth. This was the best muzzle he could make for Li Jian in a short period of time.
