For a moment he felt funny and warm in his heart.
Maodou blinked his green round eyes at Shuoyu and rubbed him with his grey fur, so that a few wet spots appeared on his round head. Maodou looked up as if to see if it was raining, but was hugged by Shuoyu. Now the kitten's belly also began to rain.
He carefully placed the letter in a small box. The box contained the tinplate "military rank" that had been hanging on Ayi's shoulder for a long time, the eight big words he had written for himself, the two indentures of Fanla and Milong, the wedding candy that Milong had given him today, and now there was another letter with only a few words in it.
…
The veterans who received their military pay yesterday were holding the few dollars they had left and were planning to go to Zenda to spend some money.
Although most of them couldn't even afford a bowl of rice noodles with their money, they dared to dream of something better than that - a woman!
Shuo Yu gave each person two more pieces of rice to buy a bowl of half-open rice from a roadside stall, so that they could at least eat something instead of just looking around and coming back.
He didn't leave because their regimental commander went to get them artillery shells. Their position had to consume a wave of artillery shells every now and then, but the shells of the 75mm mountain artillery were also precious goods in the Yu Division, so their regimental commander went to find his connections again. He leaned on the trench, and next to him was Fanla who was looking at the other side with a telescope. He didn't know what was written in the letter. Fanla felt something was wrong. He didn't want to look at the other side, so he turned his back to Nantianmen.
Milong got his debt back, and their leader robbed all the unlucky guys he could see to pay off the debt to Boss Mi, so Milong happily swung his hips and sang his happy little song. Shuoyu leaned on the trench and watched him dance the Errenzhuan past him. He had just gotten married yesterday, and today he was going back again.
"What's going on? Boss Mi is going back again?"
"Oh, what's the matter? If you want to go, you're welcome anytime!" Milong squinted at Banxianer and invited him warmly. He kept his word and welcomed any of these brothers to come!
"No, I have some lime mortar for wall plastering. Some of your walls are cracked. Besides, you have to plaster the walls when you move into a new house. It will look brighter and better." Shuo Yu didn't want to disturb his good deeds, he just wanted him to take the things back.
"Banxian'er, I won't say anything more. You are truly my brother, dear! Dear!!"
Milong stepped forward and patted Shuoyu on the shoulder, then went to get something happily. Before leaving, he whistled at Fanla.
"You have to let me come! Who doesn't want to come? That brat doesn't want to come! Ahhhhhhhh!"
The next batch wanted something spicy but not numb. They wanted bean cakes, snake butt and the others. They deliberately swung their small bags so that they could be heard from eight hundred miles away, as if they really had a lot of money. But in fact, all they could hear was the noise!
"Which one are you going to do?" Shuo Yu shielded the sun with his hands, looked at them, and asked curiously,
Bu La smiled foolishly, covering his mouth. One look at his behavior and knew it was not a good thing. But Shuo Yu could not do anything about it. As long as he was not going to kill or burn people, it was fine. The military police of Master Yu in Zenda City patrolled the streets and alleys. If they caught someone, they would be detained for ten days or half a month. Their leader had no money to rescue people.
Finally, the honest Doubing said,
"Brother Banxian, Brother Yaoma said, let's go have fun. What is happiness, Yaoma?" Doubing turned around and asked Yaoma what happiness was, with a silly smile on his face.
"I told you not to lead the kids astray!" Shuoyu saw that he didn't know where he was going, so he warned Bula to be nice to them.
"Not a kid anymore, not a kid anymore, let's take him out to see the world!"
"Go, go, come back before dark!"
"Banxian, you look down on me!"
Next up was Veterinarian Hao, and even he had to go to the city to buy some medicine.
"Sorry, Shuoyuwa, you two really aren't going?"
"Dad, you don't have enough money. Do you want me to give you a few more dollars?"
"That's enough, that's enough. Don't give me any more. Save the money for food."
"Young Master wants to be alone for a while." Meng Fanle finally spoke. He had been pretending to be dumb just now, which was not like himself at all.
Shuoyu turned to look at him, fiddling with his head with both hands.
"There's nothing wrong with this, right? What's wrong? What nonsense are you talking about?"
"The young master said I want to be alone for a while." Fanla repeated this sentence, with a bit of loneliness in his eyes. He looked listless and had no energy. Although he usually had no energy, like a piece of mud, but today this piece of mud seemed to be getting worse.
Shuo Yu asked for the rope from the guys passing by, and tied Fanla's thin waist to his own waist, with a distance of about one meter between them, not too far and not too close.
At this time, Ayi came over, dressed neatly and smelling good. Everyone on the battlefield knew what he was going to do.
"Sorry, Shuoyu, do you think I'm still neat?"
To be honest, he looked like a grown-up girl about to go on a date.
"Hey, the zipper of your pants is not fastened." Fanla took a look and threw down this sharp remark before turning his body and looking at the Nantianmen through the telescope. Ayi was so frightened that he quickly lowered his head to look at his pants and was slapped by Shuoyu.
"He lied to you, and you actually believed it. Come on, let's go, let's go!" Shuo Yu rolled his eyes at Fanla.
"Okay, I'm leaving now."
