"Report!" A firm and powerful voice reached Li Shengde's ears as he was writing. He put down his pen and said, "Please come in."
A young man, about 1.87 meters tall and of well-proportioned build, walked in: "Reporting, Lu Yuan from the Tank Regiment of the 116th Division of the 39th Army is reporting for duty."
Upon hearing Lu Yuan's name, Li Shengde chuckled and said, "You little rascal, get the hell in here right now."
Upon hearing Li Shengde's words, Lu Yuan closed the door, his military spirit vanishing instantly, and said with a grin, "Commander, this is the army. How can you say 'I'm your father' like that? It's not proper."
Li Shengde pointed at him and said, "You little rascal, I'm just a rough man, how would I know what elegance is? I'm not your learned father." As he said this, he leaned forward and asked, "I had someone check on your father and your uncle, and we have some information."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan immediately stepped forward: "Where is it?"
Li Shengde: "Heilongjiang Province, Harbin City."
Lu Yuan: "Can I go take a look?"
Li Shengde paused for a moment and then said, "I happen to have a task here, why don't you go and do it?"
Lu Yuan immediately stood up straight and saluted Li Shengde: "Yes, sir! I guarantee I will complete the mission!"
Li Shengde waved his hand and said, "Lu Jiang and Lu Xing are both in the army. Because of your family situation, they have been transferred to the Northwest and Hainan Island. But that's good. It's good to be able to avoid these dangers."
Lu Yuan nodded: "These were all the immediate reactions the elders in the family made after they realized something was wrong. They even sent the only two girls in the family to the countryside to become educated youth."
Li Shengde nodded: "Your old man is indeed a veteran revolutionary; he still has this political acumen."
Lu Yuan then asked, "I heard from my grandfather that my sister and the others were also sent to the countryside in Heilongjiang Province. I want to go and see them this time."
Li Shengde said, "You can manage the time yourself."
Lu Yuan saluted Li Shengde again: "Yes!"
Lu Yuan arrived in Shangzhi County, Harbin, Heilongjiang Province, with a note written by Li Shengde. As he walked through the small county town, he saw a little girl surrounded by three other little girls. He didn't intend to meddle, but the most arrogant of the three girls pushed the girl being surrounded and said, "Qian Duoduo, it's a favor to let us copy your homework. Otherwise, we'd make sure you can't stay in school."
Qian Duoduo was pushed and took a step back. She looked at Tao Meili and said, "Do you think you're really beautiful just because your name is Meili? You're such a waste of your name now."
Tao Meili snorted and said, "My uncle works for the Revolutionary Committee. If you don't listen to me, I'll have my uncle go to your house and see how your family behaves in the village."
Qian Duoduo scoffed: "Then you can tell your uncle right now that my family is from Beian Village, Maoershan Commune, and that my eldest and second eldest brothers are both in the army. We are military dependents. If you're so capable, try searching my house."
Tao Meili hadn't expected that mentioning her uncle's name would cause the other party to disagree. Enraged, she reached out to slap Qian Duoduo's cheek, but the expected sound didn't come. Qian Duoduo grabbed her hand and said, "What, you want to hit me? Who gave you the nerve? Your uncle from the Revolutionary Committee?"
Tao Meili tried to break free, but couldn't. Seeing the two people next to her, she said, "Quickly pull her away."
The two people next to her had just started to move forward when Qian Duoduo grabbed Tao Meili's hand and twisted it backward, putting Tao Meili in front of Qian Duoduo. The other two were stunned and stopped in their tracks.
Qian Duoduo wrapped her arms around Tao Meili's neck from behind and whispered in Tao Meili's ear, "Tell me, did they hit me first, or should I take care of you first?"
Tao Meili tried to break free, but found that Qian Duoduo's grip on her was getting tighter and tighter, so she immediately said, "Qian Duoduo, let go."
Qian Duoduo snorted: "If I let you off so easily, you might come looking for trouble again next time, and I hate trouble, and you are trouble."
Tao Meili's arm was twisted behind her back, and the pain grew stronger and stronger: "Then, then, what do you want?"
Qian Duoduo looked at the other two and said, "Take out paper and pen and write down what happened today. Write it truthfully. If even one sentence is not true, I believe our classmate Tao will not let it go."
The other two glanced at Tao Meili, whose face was contorted with rage, and then at Qian Duoduo, who seemed completely unperturbed. They exchanged a look, turned around, and ran away.
Tao Meili was also dumbfounded by the two people's actions. What did this mean? They actually ignored her betrayal. She wanted to break free from Qian Duoduo to chase after those two people, but Qian Duoduo was not so easily fooled.
Although she had transmigrated into this book, Qian Duoduo hadn't forgotten the various skills she had learned since childhood. Occasionally, when no one was around, she would practice them herself. Moreover, now that she had a sister-in-law who was a successor of Baguazhang, how could she not learn a few moves from her? Precisely because she had a legitimate reason to learn, all the children in Beian Village had been disciplined by Qian Duoduo, both openly and secretly. This was why Qian Duoduo could silence those gossipy old women with just a word. If they didn't obey, she would really punish their children. If they complained once, the next time would be even worse. Over time, no one dared to offend Qian Duoduo.
Tao Meili, who had been twisting and turning for a long time without being able to break free, sat on the ground due to exhaustion. She saw Qian Duoduo take out a pen and paper from her schoolbag, quickly write something, and then hand it to her. She wanted to run away, but as soon as she stood up, she felt a pain in her groin and fell to the ground again. Turning around, she saw Qian Duoduo holding a stone and tossing it. It was obvious that the person in front of her had hit her earlier. She felt wronged and tears streamed down her face.
When Lu Yuan saw the stone Qian Duoduo threw, his eyes narrowed. Without long-term practice to form muscle memory, one could never hit it with such accuracy. This little girl doesn't look very old, only about fourteen or fifteen years old. It seems she's a trained fighter!
He was still observing when he saw Qian Duoduo hand the written document to Tao Meili and say, "Sign and affix your fingerprint." This immediately made Lu Yuan laugh. Was this ancient times? Presenting evidence in court, signing and affixing fingerprints?
Tao Meili signed her name with a wronged expression, and then said, "Qian Duoduo, how are you so amazing?"
Qian Duoduo put the signed note into her bag and said, "You wouldn't dare go to Liangshan without some serious skills." She bent down and patted Tao Meili's face, saying, "Little girl, you shouldn't have messed with me. If you ever fall into my hands again, I'll give you a taste of something new, one you'll never forget. Just the mention of Qian Duoduo's name will make you tremble." After saying this, Qian Duoduo herself shuddered, thinking of that "Old Wu from next door." Hmm, she wouldn't say that anymore; she'd find another way to put it!
She walked out of the alley with her schoolbag on her back. When she passed Lu Yuan, she said, "Uncle PLA soldier, you didn't do a good deed, you're not qualified!"
Lu Yuan was taken aback. Had she already discovered him? Watching her departing figure, he smiled and stroked his chin. This little girl is interesting!
Waiting... What did that little girl call him? "Uncle PLA soldier"? Am I that old?
