"Come on, you're the best at bragging!"
"Xiao Ye, I trust you, no matter whether you can cook or not. But when you brag about how to cook, I always want to drool..."
Ye Zhiqiu shook his head and sighed, "Forget it, it's all nonsense! But I just heard a piece of news. Who of you is bragging outside?
Someone actually said he killed ten sheep, while the squad leader only killed nine. This is outrageous!"
Everyone pointed their fingers at Ye Zhiqiu, which startled him. He said a little guiltily, "Hey, please don't slander me! Am I that kind of person?"
Fang Wenhai said angrily: "Stop pretending. When we were fighting over the horses just now, you were surrounded by them and I just squatted beside you and listened to you bragging for a long time!
I said, you don't learn anything good, why do you just brag like them? Could it be that you tricked your partner by bragging like this?"
"That's right, you treated us as transparent and actually blew it up like that!"
Oops!
At that time, I was so proud that I forgot that everyone else had returned the horses. Ye Zhiqiu rolled his eyes and said with a wry smile, "Well, since everyone is bragging like this, I'll follow suit. It can be considered as inheriting the fine tradition of Class 2.
Let's talk about the letter! I wonder if my family could send me some seasoning. With the seasoning, the roasted rabbit will be even more delicious!
They didn't catch him, and continued to tell him about his bragging, because everyone had been caught before. Anyway, bragging was like a contagious disease, and everyone in the platoon loved it.
There were two meat dishes for dinner, clear-boiled lamb and stir-fried lamb offal. After Ye Zhiqiu had the meal, he wanted to go find his comrades.
Then Ou Jiahao waved at him and shouted, "Xiao Ye, come over here. There's some wine!"
Ye Zhiqiu ran over happily and asked, "Battalion Commander, Company Commander, did you approve the reward of cigarettes and alcohol so quickly?"
Ou Jiahao grinned and said, "No, it won't come down so soon. It will take at least tomorrow to be delivered to our small warehouse."
Ye Zhiqiu put down his lunch box and looked at the Maotai and Wuliangye on the table. He had a bad feeling in his heart. He asked with a smile: "Are you guys trying to steal the wine you sent to me again? Didn't we agree last time that this time it would be mine alone?"
Everyone pretended not to hear. Ou Jiahao, with an enthusiastic look, took a piece of his own lamb tripe, put it in Ye Zhiqiu's lunch box, and said to him, "Hey, today's lamb offal is fried very well. Come and try it, it's very refreshing. Lao Li, quickly replace the wine in Xiaoye's water jar!"
Huo Dazhuang said with a smile, "Hey, Xiaoye, try these peanuts! They're fried so delicious!"
Ye Zhiqiu said gloomily, "These peanuts are also the ones my boyfriend sent me last month, right? You guys are stealing my things to treat me, how considerate!"
The company commander of the first company, Liu Mingqi, laughed and said, "Oh, Xiaoye, you can't think like that. Our third battalion is a big family, and we are all family. Don't be so distant!
Don't divide us anymore, we share the good times and the bad times together! Come on, let's take a sip together and thank Xiaoye for his selfless contribution of good wine! "
He said everything, and everyone cheered happily. He wanted to share his happiness with them, but they were all his leaders, so no matter how depressed Ye Zhiqiu was, there was nothing he could do.
For some reason, everyone in the army could drink a lot of alcohol, so they drank a lot of bottles of wine, but no one felt drunk.
Ye Zhiqiu actually drank more than a pound of liquor. Although his face was red, he was not drunk.
Ou Jiahao smacked his lips and said, "What a pity! Although the wine is delicious, there's not enough to drink! Okay, everyone, disperse. Those who need to pick up the mail should go get it. Xiaoye, you can go and take the package back yourself."
Huo Dazhuang laughed strangely and said, "Hehe, Xiaoye, you are so lucky. You haven't even married your partner yet, but I'm already making big pants for you!"
Ye Zhiqiu didn't care about this kind of teasing. What was wrong with his future wife sewing two large pairs of shorts for him?
"Captain, please stop saying that. Your wife is allowed to sew your pants, but my partner is not allowed to sew mine?"
"Hey, how can this be put together? A grown woman is willing to sew big pants for you, brother, you should cherish her!"
"You're talking nonsense even before you're drunk. I don't cherish my partner, so why should I cherish my sister-in-law?"
"Don't run, you bastard. You're asking for a beating..."
In order to get the letter, Ye Zhiqiu was kicked a few times by Huo Dazhuang. He put the lunch box inside the package, and with the package in one hand, which felt quite heavy, he followed Fang Wenhai back to the dormitory.
Every time I receive a letter from home, it is probably the quietest moment, because everyone reads the letter carefully and is reluctant to miss a single word.
It's common for people to have tears in their eyes, and Ye Zhiqiu's eyes were red too. It was a letter from his family, saying that during the Chinese New Year, Ye Bailu cried for a long time because he didn't go home.
Because the little girl said that the New Year is a day for reunion, and it won’t be a reunion without her elder brother at home. The little girl cried so hard that the family members took turns to comfort her for a long time before they finally calmed her down.
He put the package on the bed, took out the letter and started reading.
"Dear eldest brother, I'm glad to see you. Your grandfather is out on business this time, so I'm writing this letter. I just had a reunion with your Aunt Chen and Xiaomei the day before yesterday, and everything is fine at home.
I don't know what happened, but your father became the deputy director of the workshop and is now a deputy section-level cadre.
He went to ask your master uncle what was going on, but he was rejected by him, saying that he couldn't say it. He said it was a great thing for the Ye family and there was no need to worry about other things.
Your second brother has become more sensible now. Although he got into a fight at school on the first day of school, I understand what happened. He got into the fight because someone else was bullying Xiaofang.
Although he didn't win the fight, Mom was happy for his behavior in protecting the fourth child. Of course, Mom also went to reason with the other family, and they have already apologized..."
This time, Wang Xiaolan wrote all the letters home because Wang Fugui was out on business, Ye Tianya was at work, and Ye Wubing took Ye Bailu to school.
Ye Zhiqiu couldn't help but sigh after watching it. The second brother had finally recovered. He had done a great job of standing up for his sister Qian Xiaofang. His fighting skills were still a little lacking, but even in defeat, he still had honor!
As for Ye Bailu, she was also going to first grade, and her small schoolbag finally came in handy. Otherwise, she would have been stuck with snacks all day, and who knows how much money Wang Fugui would have spent on it.
The things were taken out, still canned food and wine, and this time the cigarettes were two packs of Red Peony.
Although he had written earlier that good cigarettes could be smoked in the barracks, Wang Xiaolan still felt that she couldn't send him something too good. How could a soldier's cigarettes be better than his superiors'?
After Ye Zhiqiu put his things away, he opened the second package. There were still a lot of things inside. However, there was only one bottle of Maotai left. He didn't know how many bottles Feng Xiaomei had sent.
