Nao Nao and Tengteng exchanged a glance.
Nao Nao: "Commander? Who?"
Lü Hui stood up from his seat: "Me."
Nao Nao glanced at Tengteng and said, "The commander wants us to go over there."
Tengteng stood up from his seat: "Then let's go over there."
"good."
Nao Nao and Tengteng walked towards Lü Hui together.
Lu Hui was taken aback. Why did these two people walk so familiarly?
Before Lü Hui could figure it out, Nao Nao and Tengteng walked over. As soon as they arrived, Lü Hui lost all focus on anything else. He realized that Nao Nao and Tengteng were a head taller than him. He was already considered tall for his age, but Nao Nao and Tengteng were significantly taller.
As soon as Nao Nao and Tengteng arrived, Lü Hui felt a sense of pressure.
Tengteng smiled and said, "Commander, why did you call us brothers over here?"
"Cough cough, let me ask you, are you from another military region?"
Nao Nao: "Yes."
Lü Hui: "Did your class have a commander before?"
Nao Nao: "Yes."
Lü Hui: "So what did you do before? Platoon leader? Company commander? Battalion commander?"
Tengteng smiled and said, "Soldier." The commander is also a soldier.
Lu Hui was taken aback for a moment: "Then you can continue to serve in the army."
Nao Nao and Tengteng: "Okay."
Lu Hui puffed out his chest: "If you perform well, I'll promote you to platoon leader."
Nao Nao and Tengteng: "Okay."
Lü Hui: "Alright, go back and sit down."
Nao Nao and Tengteng: "Okay."
Lü Hui: "We can't say 'good,' we have to say 'yes.'"
Nao Nao and Tengteng: "Yes."
Lu Hui's deskmate was surnamed Zhao and named Zhao Jun. He was Lu Hui's strategist. After Nao Nao and Tengteng left, Zhao Jun whispered, "Commander, what do you think of these two new recruits?"
Lu Hui thought for a moment and said, "I can't explain it."
Zhao Jun: "Commander, I don't think they look like soldiers."
What does that look like?
"I think they should at least be a regimental commander."
Lu Hui also felt that Nao Nao and Tengteng didn't seem like junior soldiers: "Then why don't they say anything?"
Zhao Jun thought for a moment: "Dare not?"
Lu Hui thought that Nao Nao and Tengteng didn't seem like timid people. "They shouldn't be."
"Then I don't know."
"Fine. Let them be soldiers if they want to be soldiers."
A moment later, the school bell rang.
After school, Nao Nao and Tengteng followed everyone out of the classroom.
Zhao Jun and Lü Hui were the last to leave.
As soon as Commander Lü got home, he saw his grandson sitting on the sofa, frowning and lost in thought. He had already walked right up to the sofa, but his grandson hadn't even noticed him. Commander Lü ruffled his grandson's hair: "Son, what are you thinking about?"
Lu Hui looked up and asked, "Grandpa, you're back?"
"Hmm." Commander Lü sat down next to his grandson. "What's wrong? Missing your grandma?"
"No. My grandma will be back in a few days."
"I thought you missed your grandma."
“I’m thinking about my new recruits. Today, two new students joined our class. I asked them what they used to do, and they said they used to be soldiers. But Junjun and I both think they weren’t soldiers before.” Lü Hui looked at Commander Lü and asked, “Grandpa, why did they lie?”
Why do you think they aren't just common soldiers?
Lu Hui thought for a moment: "They don't look like lowly soldiers."
Commander Lü chuckled upon hearing this: "Oh, you can even judge people now?"
Lu Hui was immediately displeased: "Grandpa, I am the commander."
"Alright, alright, you're the commander. Come on, tell Grandpa what they said back then. Grandpa will analyze it for you."
“Okay.” Lü Hui repeated his conversation with Nao Nao and Tengteng.
After listening, Commander Lü rubbed Lü Hui's head and said, "Silly boy, he didn't lie."
"You didn't lie? They really are just soldiers?"
"They said they were a soldier, but they didn't say they were a lowly soldier. Grandpa is asking you, am I a soldier?"
Lü Hui understood: "Fine, they dared to fool me. Just wait and see how I deal with them tomorrow."
"They weren't trying to fool you. You just forgot that a commander is a soldier too. A division commander is a soldier too."
Lü Hui was still a little angry: "They misled me."
"If someone says they used to be a commander, are you going to make them a commander?"
"I am the commander, and there can only be one commander in a squad."
"So if someone says they're the regimental commander, you'd just let them be the regimental commander?"
“We have a commander now.”
"That's why people say they're soldiers. There can only be one commander, but the more soldiers the better."
Lü Hui understood a little: "They don't want to take someone else's position?"
"They've just arrived, and their primary task right now is to get to know you. If they come in and start talking about how amazing they used to be, do you think you'll believe them?"
Lü Hui shook his head.
"So people call themselves soldiers. Once you get to know them and realize how capable they are, wouldn't you promote them?"
Lü Hui nodded.
Commander Lü patted his grandson's head: "Alright, don't be angry. Come on, tell Grandpa what you learned at school this afternoon?"
"I've been thinking about those two all afternoon."
Commander Lü glared at his grandson with annoyance: "What are you doing at school?"
"study."
"Then why do you keep thinking about other people?"
"Hehe," Lü Hui scratched his head, "Grandpa, the two new classmates in our class look exactly alike. I've been looking at them all afternoon and I still can't tell who's who. Zhao Jun said they have two brothers who also look exactly alike. Grandpa, come back early tomorrow at noon."
"What's wrong?"
"I want to bring them back for you to see."
Commander Lü knew his grandson well: "Do you want your grandpa to help you identify who is who?"
"Hmm. Grandpa, they look so alike. I'm the commander, people will laugh at me if I can't tell them apart."
"Okay. Grandpa will take a look for you. You can't keep thinking about other people tomorrow. You're the commander; if you don't study as well as others, they'll laugh at you."
Lü Hui disliked studying: "I'm the commander, they wouldn't dare laugh at me."
"You child, you go to school to learn, not to be a commander. You're afraid of being laughed at if you can't distinguish your own soldiers, but you're not afraid of being laughed at if you don't study well?"
Lü Hui: "Hmm."
Commander Lü was taken aback by his grandson's words: "If you don't study hard, Grandpa will send you to your parents."
Lu Hui wasn't afraid at all: "They're busy with scientific research every day, how can they have time to take care of me? Grandpa, come back early tomorrow at noon."
Commander Lü was at a loss with his grandson: "I understand."
On the other hand, after Nao Nao and Tengteng returned, Xiaoman asked them how they were getting along with their new classmates.
Nao Nao and Tengteng said that Xiaoman was fine and they wouldn't ask any more questions.
The next day at noon, as soon as school was over, Lü Hui called out to Nao Nao and Tengteng: "Come on, let's go to my house to play for a while."
Nao Nao: "I'm hungry, I want to go home for dinner."
Tengteng: "Where do you live? We'll go to your house to play after we finish eating."
Lu Hui wanted to figure out who was Naonao and who was Tengteng as soon as possible: "I have food at home, come on, I'll get you some food."
Nao Nao and Tengteng exchanged a glance.
Nao Nao: "We can only play for a little while. My mom will worry if we go back late."
Lü Hui: "Okay, let's go."
When Lü Hui brought Nao Nao and Tengteng back, Commander Lü was already waiting at home. Lü Hui brought Nao Nao and Tengteng to Commander Lü: "This is my grandfather. Grandpa, you chat with them for a while, I'll go get them some food."
"Okay." After Lü Hui left, Commander Lü looked at Nao Nao and Tengteng and said, "Hello, what are your names?"
Nao Nao: "Hello Grandpa, my name is Nao Nao."
Tengteng: "Hello Grandpa, my name is Tengteng."
Commander Lü chatted with Nao Nao and Tengteng for more than ten minutes before Lü Hui came out with cookies: "Here, these cookies are delicious."
Nao Nao and Tengteng ate two pieces and played with Lü Hui for a while before going home.
As soon as they left, Lü Hui asked Commander Lü, "Grandpa, how should we divide it?"
"I don't know either."
"What should I do? No, I have to figure out who's who. Otherwise, I'll be too embarrassed to be their commander."
