After dinner, Dad and Mom Lu went to work.
Xu An sat here for a while and then went back.
Xiao Mo went to his brother-in-law's room to take a nap. When he woke up, he saw that it was only a little after two o'clock and it was too early to cook.
He had nothing to do at home alone, so he went for a walk in the compound. When he saw some children playing there, he greeted them in a familiar manner, speaking in Northeastern dialect.
At first, the kids ignored him, so he took out the bullet shell hanging around his neck and performed a set of military boxing that his brother-in-law taught him.
The children looked at each other, and a boy of about seven or eight came over and asked him,
"Whose relative are you? Why haven't we seen you before?"
Xiao Mo finished practicing the set of boxing techniques, took a breath, and then looked at the child.
He said, "I am the eldest son of Dean Lu. I live in the small building in front." After saying that, he pointed to Uncle Lu's house.
Then he asked the child, "Where do you live? When you have nothing to do, you can come and play with me. I can tell you many stories. I will tell you when the time comes."
Huo Zhenting happened to pass by here. When he heard the boy claiming to be Uncle Lu's eldest son, he stopped and asked him curiously: "Whose eldest son are you?"
Xiao Mo saw a soldier who was about the same height as his brother-in-law.
He saluted him, stood at attention and said, "Report to the commander, I am the eldest son of Dean Lu and Director Shen."
When Peter Ho saw him performing a not-so-standard military salute, he said in a serious tone that he was the eldest son of the Lu family, which made him laugh out loud.
Seeing him like this, Xu Mo snorted angrily, thinking that this man was too rude. He saluted him but he didn't return the salute and even laughed at him. So he turned around and ignored him.
Seeing that he was angry, Huo Zhenting coughed lightly and said with a smile, "Isn't the eldest son of Dean Lu called Lu Xiaotang?"
Seeing that he knew his brother-in-law, Xiao Mo turned around and said, "He is not one now. I am the eldest son."
After saying that, she looked at him again and asked, "Do you know my brother-in-law?"
When Huo Zhenting heard this, he thought, wow, this kid is Lu Xiaotang's brother-in-law, so he prepared to tease him.
"I know him. Was the boxing you just practicing taught by your brother-in-law?"
Xu Mo said proudly: "Yes, my brother-in-law is very capable."
"What's so great about him? He's still my defeated opponent." Peter Ho said this deliberately, wanting to see how this kid would react.
Xiao Mo was not angry. He smiled and nodded, praising him, "You are really awesome." Then he gave him a thumbs up.
Then he smiled and asked him, "Are you a soldier too?"
Huo Zhenting thought that this boy was quite interesting. He didn't get angry even though he said this to Lu Xiaotang.
He smiled and nodded and said, "Yes, I am serving in this military district now."
"Judging from your demeanor, you must be an official." Xiao Mo praised without hesitation.
An eight or nine-year-old kid nearby said, "Brother Zhenting is now the battalion commander."
Xiao Mo curiously asked the child who was talking: "Is it the battalion commander or the deputy commander?"
The kid looked at him with disdain: "You don't know this? Of course he's the deputy commander."
Xiao Mo asked Huo Zhenting in surprise: "The defeated generals under your command are all deputy regiment commanders, how come you are only a battalion commander?"
After saying that, she looked him up and down, with a look of contempt that was naked and undisguised.
After listening to what he said, Peter Ho realized that this guy was setting a trap for him and he burst into laughter again.
Lu Xiaotang's brother-in-law is really smart. Even at such a young age, he can keep his composure, set up traps for him one by one, and finally give him a heavy blow.
He patted Xiao Mo's shoulder and said with a smile: "You are so smart, does your brother-in-law know?"
Xiao Mo staggered after being hit by him. He felt that this man was narrow-minded and since he couldn't win the argument, he just took advantage of his power to bully the weak.
But he was smart and knew that a wise man never suffers a loss in front of him, so he prepared to go back and complain to his brother-in-law, asking his brother-in-law to deal with him when he came back next time.
He also smiled and said, "How could my brother-in-law not know? He loves me so much, and every time he goes back he brings me gifts and delicious food."
She showed him the bullet shell she was wearing around her neck and said, "See? This is what my brother-in-law made for me. He also made me a small wooden sword and let me ride a big horse."
After listening to his boasting, Peter Ho couldn't help laughing again. He never thought that Lu Xiaotang, with that kind of personality, would coax his brother-in-law in this way. He would definitely make fun of him when he came back.
When I meet Wen Qing, Donggua and the others, I will also talk to them to see how the serious Lu Xiaotang pleases his brother-in-law and even lets his brother-in-law ride a big horse. It really makes him laugh to death.
