This was on the train, and Zhang Shuguang was destined not to take out too much meat, otherwise there would be no way to explain it.
He also noticed that while they were eating, passengers from several tables would look at them from time to time, but no one was brave enough to speak first.
If he sold it to this young man, others would definitely ask for it.
What is worrying is not the lack of food but the inequality. There is no need to offend other passengers for a stranger.
"Okay, excuse me."
The young man didn't say anything, but turned and left politely.
"Dad, I want to eat meat."
The chubby little boy pouted and expressed dissatisfaction when he saw that his father did not bring back any meat.
"Qiangjun, be good. We don't have any extra meat left. When we get to grandpa's place, grandma will cook meat for you."
The young man had a good temper and patiently coaxed his son.
"No, there's a lot of meat on the table. I want to eat the meat."
The little boy refused to give in.
"Don't cry. If you cry again, I won't take you to see grandpa and grandma next time. Grandpa and grandma don't like disobedient children."
The young woman scolded with a frown.
"Okay, when we get to Grandpa's place, I'll ask Grandma to make me lots of meat."
Seeing that it was his mother's birthday, the little boy tried hard to hold back his tears.
"Okay, as long as you don't make a fuss, everything can be discussed."
It is obvious that this is a family with a kind father and a strict mother.
Zhang Shuguang finished his meal, and Su Hong and Chen Suhua sat there and chatted for a while, allowing the children to stretch their bodies after being motionless for a long time.
Under Zhang Shuguang's supervision, the children did not run around in the aisle, but found a deserted place and played games quietly.
The occasional laughter from the children made the two children who were eating not far away secretly glance at them from time to time.
But the two children were obviously dissatisfied because they didn't sell them meat. Although they wanted to go over and play, they couldn't save face.
Glancing at them at a 45-degree angle and snorting coldly was the last bit of stubbornness shown by the two siblings.
Seeing them like this, Zhang Shuguang couldn't help but smile knowingly.
When the dining car was about to get off work, Su Hong and Chen Suhua made an appointment to have breakfast together the next day.
Before parting, Zhang Shuguang took the two brothers Damao and Ermao to the toilet in the sleeper car, and also asked Chen Suhua to take Hu Ni there.
This way, after they return to the hard seat car, they can stay still for a longer time. After all, it is not easy to go to the toilet in the hard seat car.
Even if you manage to squeeze through, you'll still have to wait in line for ages.
Zhang Shuguang sent Chen Suhua and her mother back to their seats, and poured them some hot water. After settling them down, Zhang Shuguang returned to the sleeper car.
The green train stopped at every station until the third night, when it finally arrived in Yunnan Province.
The further south the train went, the higher the temperature became. Su Hongniang and the other two took off their cotton coats and changed into thin clothes.
On the morning of the fourth day, the two families sat together in the dining car to have breakfast again.
"Sister, Xiaoguang just asked the train attendant, and the attendant said that the train will arrive in Southern Xinjiang before noon today.
Before we came, I asked someone to call the army. My husband will send someone to meet you at the station. When the time comes, you can get off with us and we will go to the army base together."
Su Hong didn't know how far the military base was from the train station. If she didn't help her mother, she didn't know when Chen Suhua would find them.
"Sister-in-law, we mothers really don't know how to repay your kindness."
When she came here, her man Hu Jianpeng made a sudden decision. Because he had to keep it a secret from his parents-in-law, he didn't dare to have too much contact with them.
Hu Jianpeng had no idea when he and his children would come or when they would arrive in Yunnan Province, so he couldn't pick them up at the station even if he wanted to.
She was already prepared to slowly inquire and search, and the chief's sister-in-law's initiative to say this could indeed save her a lot of trouble.
"Sister, my husband always says that comrades-in-arms are as close as brothers, so we are almost like sisters-in-law. It's only natural for us to help each other."
At ten o'clock in the morning, the train arrived at the station on time. Zhang Shuguang walked out of the sleeper car with his mother and sister and saw Li Lixin on the platform at a glance.
"Sister-in-law, Xiaoguang, Panpan."
Li Lixin also saw Zhang Shuguang and Su Hong.
"Mom, you and Panpan wait here. Brother Li, come with me into the carriage to get the things."
For fear that his mother and sister would be squeezed, Zhang Shuguang deliberately asked them to stand in a place with fewer people.
"Xiao Guang, didn't our leader tell us that we have everything here? We can't bring so many things with us."
As soon as you enter the carriage, the first thing that catches your eye is the large and small bags on the upper bunk.
"Brother Li, these are all from Director Sun of the Machinery Factory, who brought them to your old leader."
The old leader was from the north. Zhang Shuguang also looked at the things Sun Zhigang brought. They were all local specialties of Qilu, including a large bag of dry noodles, purple garlic, and Qilu green onions.
The value may not be good, but it is Sun Zhigang's intention, so that the old leader can also taste the taste of home in Yunnan Province.
The two men took the things out of the carriage and came to Su Hong and her daughter.
"Sister-in-law, let's go now. Knowing that you are coming, our leader has been looking forward to it these past few days."
Zhang Xiangnan was promoted from battalion commander to regimental commander, and Li Lixin's status in the army also rose.
The level of a guard is determined by the level of his leader.
Just like the old leader’s bodyguard Wei Hu, the regiment commander had to be polite when he met him.
"Wait a minute, there's a military dependent in carriage number 13. Let's take her and her child to the base."
After breakfast this morning, Zhang Shuguang specifically told Chen Suhua not to rush when getting off the bus, and to wait until everyone else had gotten off before getting off to avoid squeezing the child.
"Big sister, here."
Su Hong kept staring at the door of carriage No. 13, and as soon as she saw Chen Suhua, she waved and shouted.
"Xiao Li, this is also a family member of your army. Her husband is Hu Jianpeng. Do you know him?"
"Are you Hu Jianpeng's lover?"
Li Lixin asked in surprise.
"My man's name is Hu Jianpeng, do you know him?"
Li Lixin's reaction scared Chen Suhua.
"I know him. I know him very well. When I first arrived at the recruit company, Brother Hu was my squad leader. Now he is the second platoon leader of the reconnaissance company of the third regiment. We see each other every day."
Anyone who has served in the military will have a special feeling for the old squad leader of the recruit company.
The old squad leader of the recruit company can definitely be regarded as the guide of my military career.
The old squad leader taught me how to turn left and right, how to march in step, how to goose-step, and how to do military boxing.
Teach yourself step by step how to aim, how to shoot, and how to throw bombs.
Train yourself from a young boy who knows nothing to a qualified soldier.
Of course, if you are a troublemaker, the old squad leader will turn into a devil, teach you how to behave, and let you know that a soldier's duty is to obey.
"Are you still in the same group?"
Su Hong was also confused.
"Yes, sister-in-law, Brother Hu and I are both soldiers of our commander Zhang."
Li Lixin nodded.
"It's all fate! This is such a coincidence!"
