The job was done, and both families were happy.

After Deputy Captain Geng expressed his gratitude again and again, the two of them parted ways.

Huo Jingrui took the key and walked towards the yard.

Although the yard is on the side, there are several rows of family compounds behind it. The location is actually in the middle, but it happens to be the house closest to the side in this row.

Also, the residents living in the houses in front, behind, and on the right are not nosy people.

When I opened the gate, the inside was not very messy. It must have been cleaned up by the logistics staff after Political Commissar Qiu and his family moved out.

The structures of the bungalows in the family compound are similar, with three main rooms and two wing rooms on the other side, which are used as kitchens and utility rooms. Only families who cannot afford to live in the entire compound will build another house at their own expense.

Political Commissar Qiu’s wife was a particular person. Because there was a lot of rain in the summer and there was mud everywhere, she asked someone to help her pave a few stone roads in the yard.

This was exactly what he wanted.

After a quick look around, I came up with a plan in my mind. I went to buy some coal briquettes and a coal stove, lit the stove and warmed up the house.

After that, I bought some paint and hired someone to paint the entire house, even the kitchen and utility room.

During this period, according to the drawings drawn by Gu Yunyi, a carpenter from a village near the family compound was asked to make furniture, and it was agreed that he would pick it up after a month and a half.

There are three main rooms. The middle one is used as the living room. The remaining two rooms, the one on the right is used as a bed and is used for living in the summer. The one on the left was where Political Commissar Qiu's family had a kang, so they asked someone to clear it and add a fire wall in the room.

Apart from the military training tasks every day, the rest of the time is spent on this house.

That day, Wan Ruhua, the wife of Deputy Commander Lu of the Second Regiment next door, stood on a stool and shouted across the courtyard wall: "Deputy Commander Huo, the house is almost ready, when will you pick up your wife to join the army?" Huo Jingrui and her husband Lu Mingliang had been on missions together and had a good relationship: "Sister Lu, it will take some time for my wife to come over, I will clean up the house first."

Wan Ruhua really didn't expect that Deputy Captain Huo, who was always serious before, would actually clean the house so carefully.

She is now very curious about Deputy Captain Huo's wife and is looking forward to meeting her in person soon. When the time comes, she will have to ask her how she tamed the big block of ice.

Once everything is ready, the college entrance examination will be held in a dozen days.

Huo Jingrui also welcomed the week-long military district competition.

As expected, Huo Jingrui achieved outstanding results in the armed five-kilometer cross-country race, grappling fighting, precision shooting, and other competitions, and is a well-deserved soldier king.

Division Commander Du Tianming watched the entire match and said: "This kid's skills have improved rapidly. It seems that he did not let himself go even during the mission."

I couldn't help but feel a little regretful: Why isn't this one of my own kids?
Thinking of what happened before, he couldn't help but look at the political commissar Guan Yueyang beside him. I wonder what the reaction would be if Guan's niece knew that Deputy Colonel Huo was married?
The two have been partners for so long that they have developed a tacit understanding.

Political Commissar Guan said unhappily: "If you have something to say, just say it. What are you looking at me with? "

Commander Du Tianming lowered his voice and asked, "Does your niece know that Huo is getting married?"

Political Commissar Guan sighed softly, "Of course I told her. She cried for a long time and said that when Deputy Colonel Huo's wife comes, she must come to see if she is better than her. She just hopes that she will not make a fool of herself."

Upon hearing this, the commander Du Tianming laughed unkindly: "With your niece's temper, you will have a headache." (End of this chapter)
