Congcong was very excited just knowing that he was going out to play with his parents.
Linglong didn't plan to travel far, but to visit Tianjin and Hebei Province around Beijing first.
In later generations of Tianjin, many people first learned about it through the TV series and movies such as Fist of Fury and Hero Huo.
When you are here, how can you not try the local specialties, such as Goubuli steamed buns and hemp twists?
After playing in Tianjin for two days, they went to Hebei Province again.
This time when you go on a long trip, the inspection will be very strict.
Even when they stayed in a guesthouse, the staff not only looked at the letter of introduction, but also wanted to see the couple's marriage certificate, otherwise they would not let them stay in the same room.
Before Linglong and the others went out, they prepared everything very well.
Zheng Tiansen didn't want to be too conspicuous when going out, so he didn't wear a military uniform and always wore casual clothes.
But after serving in the army for many years, even just standing there, he seemed to have a different temperament from ordinary people.
Someone with good eyesight asked him directly if he was a soldier or a public security officer.
Every time he showed his officer's ID, he was treated with great respect and favor.
When they arrived in Tianjin, they called home, and did the same when they arrived in Hebei Province.
Otherwise, Zeng Yu would be worried, which was what Zeng Yu repeatedly warned them before they left.
In addition to reporting safety to their families, they were also afraid that Zheng Tiansen would send a notice but they would not know the news.
Because Zheng Tiansenru had already graduated, the contact address and information he left were all at his home in the compound.
If there is any news, they will also inform the compound.
After playing in Hebei Province for another three days, Linglong and her friends finally set out on their return journey.
She was already satisfied with being able to go out and play for a few days, and she wouldn't have to wait until she received a notification before going back.
Although the infrastructure construction in various places is still relatively backward at this time, and the travel experience may not be as good as in later generations, Linglong can still experience a different feeling from later generations.
At least there aren't so many crowded tourists.
These days, it’s not easy to travel for work, let alone go out for fun.
The problem of food and clothing for many people has not been completely solved, so where do they have the time and money to spend?
All I can say is that everyone has their own preferences.
When going out to play, Zheng Tiansen even borrowed a camera.
Cameras are not cheap these days, so Linglong was very careful along the way.
But it's worth bringing a camera.
They took many photos at the places they visited.
After they came back, they brought some local specialties to their families.
Zheng Tianxin didn't follow her mother out because she didn't want to be lectured by her mother, but she was still curious.
As soon as they came back, they grabbed their sister-in-law Linglong and asked her all kinds of questions. Listening to Linglong's description of their trip, Zheng Tianxin felt envious and longing.
When she gets married, she will travel with her husband.
After resting for a few days after returning from his trip, Zheng Tiansen received a notice about his future arrangements.
His appointment came down, and he would be transferred from the former military region to the capital military region, and his position was also promoted.
He used to be at the regimental level, but now he is about to take up a position at the deputy division level.
The Beijing Military Region is already more popular than other military regions of the same level, and he was promoted, which is a huge deal.
He was born in 1950 and was just 30 years old this year.
A 30-year-old deputy division commander is quite rare in the current non-civilian military.
This was also due to the fact that he had just been to the front line and made military achievements the previous year, and had also studied for another year.
No matter what era, military merit is the fastest way to get promoted.
In the army, the older generation is gradually retiring, and the army is moving towards a younger cadre structure.
The military construction in this era is also moving towards the direction of high-level, highly capable and educated cadres.
Zheng Tiansen meets all these points.
No one complained about his promotion.
Zheng Tiansen had known some of the inside story for a long time and was in a good mood, but the rest of the family was extremely happy.
Linglong was overjoyed when she learned that her husband would be sent to the military district in the capital, still close to her.
Zeng Yu was very happy to know that she could still see her second son from time to time.
Apart from Zheng Tiansen, only Zheng Yu knew the news in advance.
Someone also asked about his attitude.
Zheng Yu's answer at the time was also correct. He did not interfere with his son's work and let the organization arrange it.
Even if he didn't express his support for anything.
Just because Zheng Tiansen is his son, people who know the inside story dare not treat Zheng Tiansen lightly.
It’s okay for other remote military regions.
In the Beijing Military Region, everyone is generally wary. As soon as Zheng Tiansen was appointed, many colleagues found out his background.
This has both advantages and disadvantages for Zheng Tiansen.
For Zheng Tiansen, what makes him happier is being able to be closer to his wife.
It is also about defending the country. If you can make contributions while taking care of your family, it is the best of both worlds.
After being appointed, Zheng Tiansen did not need to take up the post immediately, because he had to return to the unit to handle some procedures.
Knowing that he was going back, Linglong immediately offered to go with him.
She missed Aunt Tong and Sister Niu very much.
She was on vacation right now, so of course she had to grab this opportunity to go back.
It was not a difficult thing, so Zheng Tiansen naturally would not refuse his wife's request.
After buying the train tickets, the family boarded the train without taking much luggage.
On the train, Linglong felt a little more homesick.
"I don't know what Dazhu's son looks like."
"You'll see it when you get there."
"I prepared gifts for them, but I don't know if they like them."
"A gift of goose feathers from a thousand trees is a token of deep affection."
Zheng Tiansen kept comforting his wife.
Wait until the train finally arrives.
As soon as they went out, they saw Political Commissar Hao.
"Old Hao, why are you here?" Zheng Tiansen walked over in surprise.
"Hahaha, I can't sit still knowing you're coming back."
The two walked side by side, and the people brought by Political Commissar Hao also took their luggage.
"How is everyone?" Zheng Tiansen asked with concern.
"Don't worry, they're all great. You kid, I knew you had a future, but I didn't expect you to be so capable. I'm still stuck at the regimental level, and you've already been promoted to deputy division commander."
"Old Hao, I reckon you'll get a promotion in the next one or two years."
"Haha, let it be." If he doesn't get promoted, he will be too old to change his career.
Once in the car, the two men had endless topics to talk about.
Linglong didn't interrupt and just sat there holding Congcong.
In fact, she was also brewing her mood, thinking about what to do when she met Aunt Tong and the others.
After their family moved out, the house they lived in was reallocated. Now when they go back, they can only live in the army's guesthouse.
However, neither Zheng Tiansen nor Linglong disliked it.
This time they came back, they also planned to stay for two or three days before leaving.
Political Commissar Hao's car took the family directly to the guesthouse, and he made an appointment for them to have dinner together in the evening and held a welcoming banquet for them. Many old acquaintances were also expected to attend.
They also agreed immediately.
