[Chapter 341 Chapter 341 New Recruitment Camp]
Seeing Shen Junshan like this, Cheng Liyan thought for a while, then turned to look at his wife and asked, “How long can the second brother stay here?”
Hearing him ask this, Shen Junshan also looked towards Shen Yuyao.
Faced with two people looking at her at the same time, Shen Yuyao didn't know how to answer this question.
She thought for a moment and said, "At least a month? My mother stayed here for a month before returning."
"Can it be longer?" Cheng Liyan continued to ask.
"I don't know." Shen Yuyao answered frankly: "It was my mother who told me that she was going back. I only know that my mother stayed for a month. As for whether she could stay longer, I really don't know."
Cheng Liyan did not ask any more questions, but carefully recalled the situation at that time.
Then he said: "Why don't you write a letter to ask your mother? I feel that your mother wanted to leave because she saw that you had settled down here and was relieved about us.
She probably wanted to leave because she was worried about her family, not because she could only stay for a month. "
"Yes, my mother went back and told me that she was afraid that if she went back too late, her father would not be able to explain. She said at the beginning that she wanted to copy scriptures and pray for blessings. Copying scriptures for a month is enough. It would be inappropriate to take longer than that." Shen Junshan added.
After listening to what the two people said, Shen Yuyao also felt that this should be the case.
But she still said, "I'll write a letter to my mother and ask her about it."
After hearing what she said, Cheng Liyan looked at Shen Junshan and said, “Second brother, if you really want to follow the training, there is a way.
This year's new recruits will be arriving soon. If you really want to go, I'll talk to Political Commissar Zhuo and ask him to say hello and put you in their old unit. You should be ready after three months of training with the new recruits."
"Is it okay?" Hearing him say this, Shen Junshan seemed to have rekindled hope and immediately asked.
"I'm sure you can, but can you stay that long?"
"I can!" Shen Junshan answered very confidently.
He said, "I am sure I can. My situation is different from that of my mother. I have found a way out. I have the imperial decree."
He said happily: "Li Yan, I'll leave this matter to you. I will definitely learn from you."
Seeing her brother so happy, Shen Yuyao couldn't say it out loud even though she was worried.
She knew what the boot camp was like. It was a group of people who had to eat, live and train together for several months.
Her brother had just arrived and had been with outsiders for such a long time. Shen Yuyao was worried that if he wasn't paying attention, someone might find out something.
She looked at her husband, but found that Cheng Liyan didn't seem to care about it.
Cheng Liyan was indeed not worried about his second uncle being exposed.
He knew very well what the new recruits were like every year.
Many of these people came from the mountains, and they may not know as much as my second uncle.
The level of curiosity about new things should be similar.
After several years of correspondence and these days of getting along, Cheng Liyan actually respects his second uncle very much.
This respect is not only because of his identity, but also comes from the mutual respect between fellow soldiers.
Although the two people are not in the same world, they both have the same military spirit in their bones and a strong sense of mission for the country they are loyal to.
Therefore, Cheng Liyan is willing to help his uncle when he can, even if it is a bit troublesome.
That night, Shen Yuyao and Shen Junshan each wrote a letter home.
On the one hand, he asked about the specific reason why A Niang left at that time, and on the other hand, Shen Junshan told his father about his thoughts.
He was given a vaccination in advance and told that he might have to stay for a few more days.
Of course, Shen Junshan would not put all the pressure on his old father. He promised that after the situation on his side became clear, he would personally write a memorial to explain it to the emperor, and then ask his father to present it.
Because the wish that had been lingering in his heart for a long time was finally expressed, and was about to get a very satisfactory result, Shen Junshan put aside his previous worries and relaxed completely.
That night, the whole family slept well.
Because they had agreed to go to Hualin today, Shen Yuyao and her family did not have breakfast at home, but took Shen Junshan to the nearby Southern Dessert Shop for breakfast.
The Southern Sweet Shop is a time-honored state-owned restaurant in Anhuai, which mainly sells southern snacks.
Although the store is not big, it does good business.
It was not yet seven in the morning when they arrived, but most of the tables in the room were occupied.
Shen Yuyao took her brother and Xiaoyi to find a place to sit down, while Cheng Liyan went to queue up to buy food.
They ordered black sesame paste, glutinous rice balls, red bean paste buns, and also the famous steamed buns here which are not available if you come a little later. The whole family was very satisfied with the meal.
There is a direct bus from Anhuai to Hualin, but for convenience, Cheng Liyan borrowed a car from the brigade yesterday.
After dinner, they got in the car together.
This is a very ordinary jeep, but for Shen Yuyao, who came here by tractor, having such a jeep already made her very satisfied.
Although Shen Junshan had ridden in this iron-shell car yesterday, it was still very novel for him to ride in it again today.
Cheng Liyan drove much faster than Tang Wenlin drove the tractor, so they arrived at Hualin in just over ten o'clock.
They went to the base first.
Because the guards recognized Cheng Liyan's car, they did not stop them from taking pictures at the door.
The family of four took a group photo and also took several photos of Shen Junshan from various angles.
After taking the photos, the family went to the department store again.
This was Shen Yuyao's first time to come to Hualin since she got off the train that day, and she was very unfamiliar with this place.
It's obvious that Hualin's department store was built earlier than Binhai's, and the building looks a bit old.
But the variety of things inside is obviously similar to that of the Binhai Department Store. It has everything that is necessary, but also what is missing.
Once Shen Yuyao arrived at such a place, she felt familiar with the place.
There was no need for Cheng Liyan to introduce anything; she could tell at a glance what was sold on each floor.
Because she had always maintained close contact with her family, Shen Yuyao knew that her father and mother had nothing to lack.
But my second brother rarely comes here, so no matter how others say it, he always buys something for my sister-in-law and children.
Shen Yuyao took charge and bought a box of vanishing cream and a small mirror for each of her three sisters-in-law, a toy gun for each of the boys in the family, and also bought a tin airplane, which was the most popular at the time.
Shen Yuyao bought a clockwork tin frog for the girl in her family.
My eldest brother’s eldest son, Xu Ge, is old and is almost ten years old this year.
Shen Yuyao was afraid that her eldest brother would be too conservative and would not let Xuge play with toys, so she thoughtfully bought him a tin pencil case with a tank painted on it...
After a round, both men had their hands full of things.
Shen Yuyao also spent all the tickets she had brought with her.
