Chapter 225 Situation
Chapter 225 Situation
Fatty and Yuan Jun came in, each carrying two bowls of noodles.
Sanhezi hand-rolled noodles are really chewy, and these guys even learned how to make the braising sauce themselves.
Although it’s not very authentic, we really don’t need to be so particular about it these days.
Ning Yuan and Zhong Yuemin each took a bowl of noodles, mixed them together and started eating.
"Where's the garlic? Can we eat noodles without garlic?"
The fat man felt like something was missing as soon as he swallowed a mouthful of noodles, and asked Yuan Jun.
"Okay, I'll go find it. Do you two want Yuemin and Ningyuan?"
After Yuan Jun snorted twice, he heard the fat man shouting, so he stood up and prepared to go out to find garlic!
"Yes, bring some more!"
After Ning Yuan responded, Zhong Yuemin also nodded vaguely.
After Yuan Jun left the main hall, Ning Yuan looked at the boy's back and felt something was wrong, so he poked Zhong Yuemin with his arm.
"Yuemin, isn't there something wrong with Yuan Jun? Even Fatty can order him around."
It is indeed a bit abnormal. Given Yuan Jun's personality, only Ning Yuan and Zhong Yuemin can make him behave.
Zhong Yuemin also raised his head and looked towards the door before speaking to Ning Yuan.
"This kid probably feels sorry for us brothers, so he's so quiet!"
After hearing this, Ning Yuan suddenly remembered that Yuan Jun later went directly to serve as a soldier and did not follow Zhong Yuemin and others to the countryside.
After understanding, Ning Yuan asked Zhong Yuemin.
"What's going on? Director Yuan is here?"
Yuan Jun's father also retired from the army.
At first, he was from the 120th Teaching Corps and followed the Fifth Marshal. So, as soon as that thing started two years ago, his father was arrested.
But during this period, it was discovered that he had followed Sanhu into the Northeast and fought back, so he was released directly.
Zhong Yuemin nodded and said with some emotion.
"There's nothing we can do. Old Yuan is lucky. The one who followed him in the second half, our old men didn't have such a good time!"
Ning Yuan knew that Zhong Yuemin's father Zhong Shanyue and his own father Ning Wanli were following that big boss.
Although he also knew that as long as these two people came out later, they would become the little guy's base.
However, the prerequisite is really to get out alive.
Moreover, after being reminded by Zhong Yuemin, Ning Yuan also recalled some things that happened in the city of Sijiu during this period of time.
After thinking for a while, Ning Yuan slowed down the movement of his chopsticks.
Yuan Jun also came back with some garlic from outside.
After distributing the noodles to the people at the table, he didn't say much, just took a bite of garlic and continued to eat the noodles.
"Yuan Jun, I heard your old man is back. How is he? Is he in good health?"
They were all brothers, so Ning Yuan didn't bother to beat around the bush and asked Yuan Jun while eating.
Yuan Jun choked and coughed when Ning Yuan asked this question. He hurriedly took a glass of water from Zhong Yuemin and drank two sips before he could breathe smoothly.
"Ahem! Well, Ning Yuan, you know what, the old man is doing fine. He just got out these past two days. The organization let him rest for a few days, and he may be transferred back to the local defense system soon!"
Yuan Jun actually has two older brothers, but they are much older than him and have already joined the army, so he is the only youngest son left in the city.
After Old Yuan came out, he naturally grabbed this kid and chatted with him all night long. It was obvious that the old man was very depressed in there.
(He’s called an old man, but he’s only about fifty years old!)
(I found a few of the Five Tigers, and I felt that only this general was more in line with Yuan Jun's family background. He was born in Hunan in 1917!)
So Yuan Jun really knew a lot about his father, and he didn't pay any attention here, just blurted out everything!
After hearing Yuan Jun's words, Ning Yuan immediately became alert.
"Enter the local defense system? Forty-nine City? Guard?"
After listening to Ning Yuan's question, Yuan Jun nodded.
Then he muttered.
"The old man forced me to join the C Army. Oh, I really can't let you guys down!"
As Yuan Jun spoke, he hugged the bowl of noodles with gravy, without even looking up, and did not dare to look at the guys at the table.
Zhong Yuemin saw Yuan Jun's guilt and said jokingly.
"Wow, you're like a tiger returning to the mountains and a dragon returning to the sea! Army C, from top to bottom, is made up of your old man's former subordinates! And your two brothers are protecting you. When you become rich and powerful in the future, you can't disown us poor brothers!"
The fat man also took over the conversation and continued to liven up the atmosphere.
"How dare you! If this brat really dares to look down on us old brothers when he becomes rich, I, Fatty, will be the first one to deal with him!"
Yuan Jun knew that these two guys were trying to comfort him and were deliberately making fun of themselves, so he raised his head and spoke to them.
"Well, you guys are bullying me. I'm not even a new recruit, but you're already worried about me like a general. Thank you so much!"
"Look at this guy, he's being modest. Damn it, it's only a matter of time!"
The fat man punched Yuan Jun in the chest and teased Ning Yuan and Zhong Yuemin.
"Okay, then I'll make a promise to you guys today. If Old Yuan ever becomes a big star in the future, when we meet, if I show off, you guys will just come up and beat me up!"
Yuan Jun became more and more serious as he spoke, and was about to raise his hand to swear an oath.
Ning Yuan saw these guys making such a fuss and came over.
"Well, it's clear that our Comrade Yuan Jun is quite sincere. So, how about a written agreement? Guys?"
"Hahahaha!"
"Yes, yes, let him put his fingerprint on it! Haha!"
"Hey, Ning Yuan, you tease your buddies like this too!"
After the brothers had a good time, Yuan Jun was no longer as depressed as before.
Ning Yuan then brought the topic back on track.
"Hey Yuan Jun, you just said your old man is going to be transferred to local defense. What's going on?"
"Hey, I don't understand either. It seems that those old guys have been mobilized one after another since last month! Some have joined the defense department, some have joined the guards, and some have directly taken over..."
Ning Yuan's heart suddenly skipped a beat. Is this the first major move? Is it ahead of schedule?
Or did they really start planning so early?
Thinking of this, Ning Yuan hesitated for a moment, and still spoke to Yuan Jun.
"Yuan Jun, if you've been chatting with your father lately, try to persuade him if you can. He's been struggling all his life, so why not just manage logistics? It's easier, more comfortable, and away from the fuss! With the situation right now, no one can predict what it will be like!"
(The last big plot of "Sijiucheng" is very tangled. If I write it, it may involve historical events, as well as Sanhu and Jiang! If I don't write it, the turning point of going to the countryside will be too abrupt! It gives me a headache!)
(Post some opinions, Hu Zi can refer to them! Give me some small gifts, guys!)
