Jiang Jun got up early in the morning and went to the front desk to check out. She also had to rush to the county town to catch the shuttle bus.
There is only one bus a day between cities, and tickets are not sold in advance, so you have to buy tickets at the window on the day.
Some people wait in line outside the bus station all night long. If they arrive at the bus station at dawn, the line is usually very long.
Jiang Jun was particularly puzzled. Wasn't it said that the economy was difficult these days? Yet, the trains, buses, and even noodle shops were always packed! There was always a line to buy tickets, and sometimes even waiting for a table at the noodle shop.
It is really not easy to go out these days.
As soon as I walked out of the corridor, Jin Bu came up to me: "Sister-in-law, good morning!"
Jiang Jun was a little embarrassed. When she was checking in, she had written down her age as seventeen. It would be embarrassing if the waiter heard it. "Good morning! What do you want to talk to me about?"
Jin Bu nodded: "I've already greeted the waiter. Let's go, I'll take you to the cafeteria for breakfast. Political Commissar Qi heard you were here and said he wanted to see you."
As he said that, he took a step forward, bent down, took the luggage from Jiang Jun's hand, and walked out.
Jiang Yun had no choice but to follow.
After walking for a while and finding no one around, Jin Bucai said, "The division headquarters has a car going to the military region today. I told the driver of the car company to give you a ride."
Jiang Jun knew the military regulations. Although he really wanted to hitchhike, he didn't want to cause any trouble. "No, I'll just take the bus myself. It's quite convenient."
Generally speaking, family members are not allowed to hitchhike at will.
However, what Jiang Jun didn't know was that her identity had changed. She was now the "table tennis coach" of Team Jin Bu, which was different from an ordinary family member!
Jin Bu strode forward with her luggage in his hand. "If you go to the county town and then to the military district, it will be afternoon at the earliest. If you take the car company's car, you can get there in time for lunch. Besides, they are going there with an empty car now, to pick up the art troupe who are coming to perform for you."
This reason was very appropriate, and Jiang Yun accepted it immediately.
It really saves a lot of effort to be able to hitchhike with the troops!
Coupled with Jin Bu and the others shouting "sister-in-law", she actually wanted to go back early, see Chen Yuanwu as soon as possible, and ask him what he had said to others!
Chen Yuanwu, who was missed by Jiang Jun intentionally or unintentionally, turned down the birthday party that Ye Qingyin had carefully prepared for him in the capital. He never wanted to force himself to attend that disguised blind date party again.
He went to the military district headquarters to do some work and wanted to have dinner with his father as a kind of early birthday celebration, and chat about the recent situation and his plans.
Only guard Xiao Dai was in Chen Zhong's office. "Staff Officer Chen, Deputy Commander Chen is at the art troupe. Please sit here for a moment. I'll call the art troupe right away."
Chen Yuanwu frowned slightly. "I'm not going to sit down anymore. I just came up to tell him that I want to go on a mission with the commander for three months."
In the army, starting from May 1st and continuing until July 1st, August 1st and November 1st, the army's song and dance troupes and art troupes are the busiest. They have to rehearse large-scale festival song and dance performances and go to the grassroots to give performances to express their condolences.
He came to the military headquarters twice in succession, but he didn't get to talk to his father alone. Given the frequency with which Chen Zhong went to the art troupe recently, the father and son couldn't sit down and chat during the peak season of the art troupe's performances.
When the commander goes to inspect the military regions in the south, it won’t make much sense to bring Chen Yuanwu with him.
He hurried downstairs, sat in the passenger seat and let the driver drive.
The driver didn't want to leave yet: "I heard the art troupe is rehearsing, Staff Officer Chen, didn't you have dinner with the commander last time?"
Chen Yuanwu said expressionlessly: "Drive! The commander is waiting for me."
"Okay!" the driver said angrily. He started the car and saw the divisional car in the rearview mirror. "Look, Staff Officer Chen, it's the deputy commander's former unit car. It must be here to pick someone up for a performance."
Chen Yuanwu glanced in the rearview mirror and closed his eyes: "I'll take you to see the performance again on August 1st."
The equipment department's car backed up and turned away, and Jiang Jun's ride parked in the newly vacated seat.
There was a mirror at the entrance to the first floor of the military district office building. It was called the Discipline Mirror. Jiang Jun adjusted his appearance in the mirror, curling his lips 15 degrees to make sure he looked relaxed and happy.
I drank half a cup of tea in Chen Zhong's office and carefully considered my words, wondering how to ask Chen Zhong about Chen Yuanwu without being teased by him.
The door opened, and Chen Zhong did not come back alone.
When Jiang Lan heard her sister was back, she insisted on coming along. She squeezed past Chen Zhong and threw herself on Jiang Yun, saying, "Sister, everyone in the art troupe has gone down to perform. The practice rooms and singing rooms are empty. We can use them freely for the next few days."
Jiang Jun pushed Jiang Lan away. This wasn't her home, so how could she be so casual? He said in a slightly stern voice, "Go sit over there!"
Details reveal a person's character.
This is the commander's office, not some elder's home.
In front of a leader who is easy-going but never casual, you must remain respectful and not timid. Being timid does not mean you can be casual.
If you behave too casually in front of your superior, he will not criticize you, but he will not give you another chance either - in combat, there is no preparation before the start, and there is no such thing as a repeat.
Jiang Lan pouted and said "Oh", then obediently changed to another stool to sit on.
Although he looked obedient, he actually had a confused and reluctant expression, which made Jiang Jun think of Zhang Xiuying and felt disgusted.
"Xiaojun, did you see Xiaowu just now?" Chen Zhong heard the guard's report that Chen Yuanwu left early again, and guessed that Jiang Jun's surprised expression at the moment might be related to it.
Jiang Jun shook his head. "No, when I came up, only Xiao Dai was there. Did Staff Officer Chen come today?"
Chen Zhong looked regretful. "From what I heard from the guard, you two just missed each other. He should have left right before you came in."
Jiang Jun blinked. She seemed to have seen a jeep leaving. "It seems so. Was it the black jeep with the license plate ending in 6045? I saw it leaving the gate when I got off the car."
Looking at Chen Zhong's expression, Jiang Jun knew that he was right.
"Don't worry, since you're not leaving anyway, just stay here. When you have nothing to do, go and practice dancing and singing with Xiaolan. Teacher Cheng thinks very highly of Xiaolan."
Jiang Jun glared at Jiang Lan from the corner of his eye: "What song did Teacher Cheng teach you to sing?"
Jiang Lan shrank back and whispered, "I'm singing. Teacher Cheng, please give me some guidance."
Jiang Yun was a little anxious and wanted to do something to vent his anger.
"sister,"
