When Ruan Shengpeng led the three men to the recruit training ground, the platoon leaders and battalion commanders who were training the recruits nearby all came over to salute Ruan Shengpeng.
Ruan Shengpeng didn't give any perfunctory responses and returned each greeting very seriously. This scene made Yao Tongjia feel a surge of excitement. These were all iron-willed soldiers.
After everyone left, Ruan Shengpeng and Yao Tongxu stood at the highest point, watching the new recruits below, running with weights, crawling on the ground, and climbing obstacles...
Ruan Shengpeng pointed at them: "Did you see that? Ah Xu, every training session is difficult, unlike your usual physical education classes. It will greatly stimulate your individual potential."
“Look at the backs of each of them, they’re all soaked with sweat. They’re exhausted after every training session. I heard you used to have health problems.”
Do you think you can keep up with this kind of training right now?
Yao Tongxu put his hand on his brother He Jiale's shoulder: "You were able to persevere before?"
He Jiale nodded firmly: "If I don't persevere, my dad will send me to an even tougher place for training. He's not a soft-hearted person!"
Later, his heart was found to have a problem, and his father was afraid that he would die young, so he dared not let him train. Now, several years have passed, and he still hasn't been arranged to train.
He Jiale was a little itchy: "How about we go to training together? I haven't trained in a long time, and I guess I'll have to start from scratch. Sister Tong, would you like to come along?"
Yao Tongjia shook her head repeatedly: "No way! After just one training session, I'll turn into a dark-skinned girl!"
These words made Yao Tongxu and He Jiale laugh. He Jiale even joked, "Anyway, no matter what you become, Brother Xiao will still like you, so what does it matter?"
"I don't want to become ugly! You guys go train yourselves, I want to learn how to shoot!" It's the age of firearms now, she's crazy to do physical training.
No matter how much she trains, she can never become like Qin Sang, so it's better not to train at all. Thinking of Qin Sang, Yao Tongjia asked, "Dad, where is Qin Sang?"
Ruan Shengpeng shook his head: "Last time Ms. Liu came back, I sent someone to pick her up. At that time, she said that Qin Sang would lend her the money first, and it was probably not convenient for her to return it to you for the time being!"
"You're all on holiday, so why don't you stay here at the military camp with your mother and go back when school starts, okay?"
Yao Tongjia wasn't sure either: "If the school doesn't ask me to stay, I'll stay!"
After discussing it with He Jiale, Yao Tongxu decided to stay and train, but Ruan Shengpeng was still worried that his son's body could not withstand the high-intensity training.
He summoned Platoon Leader Jiang and said, "Please give these two a day of separate training, based on the number of new recruits!"
When they left the training ground, it was just the father and daughter. Ruan Shengpeng had a rare chance to be alone with Yao Tongjia, and he suddenly felt a little lost and didn't know what to say to her.
Yao Tongjia was eager to practice shooting: "Shall we go practice shooting now?"
Seeing the eagerness in Yao Tongjia's eyes, Ruan Shengpeng suddenly felt at ease: "Let's go back and call your mother. I'll go apply for bullets while I'm at it."
"Mom probably doesn't want to train; she likes quiet people so much."
Ruan Shengpeng pointed to the office in front: "Go ask your mother. If she's willing to come with you, come find me here. I'll apply for bullets over there."
It's good to split up into two groups; it saves time. Besides, having Yao Tongjia in the office would prevent Dad from asking people for things.
When she returned to the family compound, she saw two people standing at the door talking to her mother. Her mother's expression was obviously very bad, so Yao Tongjia couldn't help but walk over quickly.
I just overheard someone say, "What right does a country bumpkin like you have to monopolize Commander Ruan's position? A scholar-general like Commander Ruan should be matched with a pillar of the cultural troupe!"
These words ignited Yao Tongjia's anger: "So what? You mean you want my mother to initiate a divorce, and then who will take her place? You or me?"
The woman retorted angrily, "Who are you? What business is it of yours?"
"I am her daughter, the daughter of Commander Ruan you mentioned. What business is it of mine? You're looking down on my mother and asking me what I have to do with you?"
The woman looked Yao Tongjia up and down with disdain: "Get out of my way, you little brat. Go get a divorce and take this brat with you. Don't leave her here in the way!"
Yao Tongjia walked over and slapped the woman across the face. The woman who had been speaking was suddenly slapped and was still confused: "You dare to hit me?"
Yao Tongjia slapped him again: "So what if I hit you? Do you know what you're doing? What kind of behavior is this?"
"What did I do? I just kicked the unsuitable people out of the military. What did I do? I just made the air in the military fresher!"
"You call yourself a soldier? Don't you know that soldiers' marriages are protected? What will happen if you break up a military marriage?"
These words caused the woman's face to change drastically: "How did I disrupt a military marriage? I was just advising this woman that she was unworthy of her position and should step down and give way to a more virtuous one!"
Yao Tongjia grabbed the woman and said, "Fine, let's go to the office now and have someone come and talk to you about whether your behavior was right or wrong."
The woman panicked: "I, you, I was just saying it. Whether your mother agrees or not is another matter. We're not divorced yet, so how can you say I'm ruining a military marriage!"
Just then, Ruan Shengpeng couldn't wait any longer and came over: "Tongtong, why did it take you so long?"
Seeing Yao Tongjia holding hands with a woman, Ruan Shengpeng, fearing Yao Tongjia might get hurt, rushed over and asked, "What happened?"
Wen Lingling, who had been barely noticeable just moments before, immediately transformed into a soft, boneless woman, about to fall towards Ruan Shengpeng. Ruan Shengpeng, however, dared not let a woman get close to his body.
He nimbly jumped aside, and Wen Lingling fell to the ground, her mouth full of mud. Ruan Shengpeng spoke first: "What are you doing? Trying to scam me? Who are you? What are you doing at my doorstep?"
The woman who had spoken earlier looked at Wen Lingling and wondered why she seemed different from what Wen Lingling had said. But then she remembered the benefits Wen Lingling had promised her.
She still took the lead: "Commander Ruan, look at Lingling, she's so pretty and has such a great figure, she's perfect to be by your side, Commander Ruan."
"What use is your wife if she doesn't even cook at home? You should divorce her and be with our Lingling!"
Upon hearing this, Ruan Shengpeng did not immediately refute it. Instead, he looked at Yao Yanxin and Yao Tongjia. He saw Yao Tongjia pull Yao Yanxin behind her and then cross her arms, looking at Ruan Shengpeng with a cold smile.
Ruan Shengpeng was filled with rage. Tongtong had finally become close to him, what were these two lunatics up to?
He looked coldly at the two lunatics who had appeared out of nowhere: "Which department are you from?"
The woman who spoke was secretly delighted. Was he going to investigate her background?
She quickly pulled Wen Lingling up and wiped her face clean with her sleeve: "This is the star of the art troupe, 26 years old this year, still a virgin, much better than yours!"
"And you?" Ruan Shengpeng asked calmly.
