I asked you to repeat your senior year of high school, but did you miss out on joining the military

Chapter 354: Calm and Peaceful, the Landlord's Foolish Son
After Chen Jun understood what the chief meant, he twisted his body somewhat unnaturally and adjusted his sitting position.

Judging from the situation, it was directed at him, there was no doubt about it.

But this statement was not convincing enough. Chen Jun didn't believe from the bottom of his heart that the matter of the commander of the second battalion of the third regiment of the guard division retiring could be reported to the old man.

This is like opening a small shop in a village, with only 20 square meters of space, and selling soy sauce, vinegar and the like.

But I was shocked. It looked like the headquarters of an international supermarket chain in Kyoto.

A bit too exaggerated.

But since the leader asked, Chen Jun must respond.

However, he didn't intend to address the topic head-on.

After thinking for a moment.

Chen Jun straightened his back and said, "Commander, I think regarding this year's military reform policy, the garrison's guard division should not change."

"Yes, that's right. The military does have such a plan."

Li Zhenhua nodded calmly. The Kyoto Guard Division is known as the Imperial Guard. The combat effectiveness of a division is no less than that of an army group.

Although this military reform has caused quite a stir, many people in the military understand that no one will touch the Imperial Guards.

At least until the military reform is fully implemented and substantial progress is made.

Won't move.

Seeing that the leader did not emphasize the previous issue, Chen Jun simply continued to expand on the fact that there would be no adaptation.

"Commander, I am quite familiar with synthetic units, and the most eye-catching thing about battalion-level synthesis is its organizational structure, which is to drive a command system for coordinated operations of all arms of a synthetic battalion."

“It is not easy to train a new battalion commander and give him the ability to organize and coordinate.”

"In a short period of time, there is no way to do a better job."

Chen Jun's words were already a tactful rejection of the leader's proposal.

My second uncle served as the political commissar of the Guard Division, my daughter-in-law worked in the Archives Department of the Political Department, and I was the battalion commander of a frontline unit.

The unit is also in the garrison area, responsible for the important task of defending Beijing and Tianjin.

All of this seemed to be very beautiful, as if as long as he nodded, all arrangements would be made clearly without him having to worry about anything.

This cake is really big and very tempting.

But Chen Jun knew what he wanted.

What's more, he knew it.

Even if he promised the old man in front of him, he would not really arrange it for him.

Chen Jun is not naive, and the old man is not stupid either.

If the battalion commander of a military reform pilot battalion was transferred in this way, he would be transferred to a unit that has nothing to do with the military reform and integration.

That's not a promotion.

Although Chen Jun did not think that he was that important and that the First Battalion would not be able to function without him, this transfer was definitely not that easy.

Just the Eastern Theater alone will be difficult to pass.

Li Zhenhua listened to Chen Jun emphasizing that the Guard Division would not be reorganized, and then trying to say that he was better at synthesis.

The old man himself laughed when he heard it.

A younger generation was in front of him, talking about this and that.

He just keeps talking nonsense and never talks about serious matters. It seems like I haven't encountered this kind of thing in years.

He picked up the tea and took a sip.

Li Zhenhua did not say anything, but just used a bamboo ladle to gently stir the boiling tea in the clay pot.

Chen Jun once again felt the depressing and cold atmosphere.

It was probably two or three minutes.

During this period, Chen Jun stopped talking and just sat there quietly. Anyway, he made his meaning clear.

At least he felt that his answer was quite tactful and perfect, and could score around 80 points.

Neither of them said anything, and finally the old man spoke up to break the deadlock.

"I've heard people say you're from Guangxi Province. Where are you from?"

"Report to the Chief, Liucheng Rong'an County."

“Yeah, it’s a good place.”

When talking about Guangxi Province, the old man's eyes were filled with memories. He then put down the bamboo scoop, stood up and stretched his legs slightly.

"I'm old, and my body isn't as strong as it was when I was young."

The leader had already stood up, so how could Chen Jun still sit there? He quickly stood up as well.

Seeing this, the old man just waved his hand and said, "It's okay, you sit for a while, I'll go take a rest."

The words fell.

Li Zhenhua took a tiger step and left.

This scene made Chen Jun stunned.

What does this chief mean by asking me to sit for a while? ! !
He doesn't even know how to drink tea.

Besides, it's someone else's living room, and he's sitting here making tea by himself. Isn't it a bit too unclear about the difference between the king and the queen?

Or was the commander's question just now not a test? Did he really want to transfer me to the Guard Division?

For a moment, countless thoughts flashed through Chen Jun's mind.

Just as he was stunned, Li Haifeng, who had run away, came back to the living room at the right time.

He glanced at Chen Jun, and Chen Jun also glanced at Li Haifeng.

The two brothers then looked at the same time in the direction the old man left.

There is no need to wait for Chen Jun to speak.

Li Haifeng was the first to spread his hands and said: "Don't ask me, I don't know what's going on."

"You know, I was always the first one to leave at home, and I've never seen my grandfather leave early."

"I see it."

Chen Jun replied depressedly. This was not the first time he had experienced this guy's unreliable style.

"but."

Li Haifeng changed the subject and continued, "However, there is one thing I can help with."

"The battalion commander of the 2nd Battalion of the 3rd Regiment of the 1st Guard Division has definitely not retired. I met him this morning. I work at the 3rd Regiment's staff."

"Are you the regiment chief of staff?" Chen Jun asked in surprise.

Chen Jun had no scruples towards this cousin who was not much older than him and asked him whatever he had to ask.

The main reason was that he could see that Li Haifeng's personality made him not the best among the third generation of the Li family.

This guy gives people the feeling of being a gangster and a junior who can follow the old man.

Generally speaking, there are no outstanding ones.

After all, in this kind of family, anyone with a little ability.

People in their thirties, who are at the age of working hard, will be thrown to more distant places to gain experience instead of being kept by their side.

Li Haiyao, a girl, was sent to the Western Theater Command. One can imagine the potential of her cousin.

In the old man's eyes, she is probably not even as good as his granddaughter.

Chen Jun pondered in his heart, even the worst person could serve as the regiment chief of staff.

If you really want to talk about it, it's not that different.

"He is the Chief of Staff, but he is the deputy."

Li Haifeng corrected him naturally, and then while the old man was away, he picked up a bamboo ladle and prepared to make some tea.

These teas can only be brewed to entertain guests, and Li Haifeng usually doesn't have the luxury of enjoying them.

He had just scooped up a little tea and hadn't even brought the cup to his mouth when he suddenly heard footsteps coming down the stairs.

Li Haifeng's originally calm expression changed like a frightened old rabbit. He drank the tea in a gulp, held it in his mouth and ran out.

Good guy.

This sudden movement left Chen Jun stunned.

He looked down at the boiling water and then at the empty cup.

Chen Jun couldn't help but praise his cousin's courage.

Even if the water isn't 100°, it must be at least 90°, right?
Just run away with it in your mouth?

Even if you have an iron mouth, you can't drink like that. Fortunately, the tea bowls are very small, and that little bit of tea can only moisten your throat.

It shouldn't be a big problem. The footsteps just now were not from the old man, but from Li Haiyao coming down from the building.

She looked at Chen Jun standing there curiously and asked strangely: "Why don't you sit down?"

"What did grandpa talk to you about just now?"

Li Haiyao thought Chen Jun was too nervous, so he was standing. She walked over and helped Chen Jun sit down on the sofa again.

Hearing the question, Chen Jun opened his mouth. He originally wanted to point at the water cup and talk about what had just happened.

But after thinking about it carefully, she decided to forget it. She should be very clear about what kind of person Li Haiyao's cousin is.

"Um, is your brother very afraid of your grandfather?"

Chen Jun ignored the previous inquiry and asked about the topic that interested him.

"Did you see it?"

Hearing this, Li Haiyao smiled, raised her hand to tidy up her hair and said, "I'm not afraid, I should say I'm very afraid."

"Anyway, ever since I can remember, my grandfather has been very strict with him, but my brother seems to be born without the ability to take things seriously, and he always got into trouble when he was a kid."

"He must be scared because he's been punished so many times."

"When we came back this time, I told him alone. I originally wanted my brother to come and tell grandpa, but it turned out that someone from the Pengcheng Military Region might have reported it."

"My brother didn't seize this opportunity."

As Li Haiyao spoke, she couldn't help laughing, as if she was recalling something interesting from the past.

Hearing about this situation.

Chen Jun nodded in understanding. He had just guessed that Li Haifeng should be the most mediocre one among the younger generation in the family.

Just like the stupid son of a landlord.

But there is a saying that goes, "A blessing in disguise."

The crying child gets candy.

Without his ability, Li Haifeng might only be able to become a colonel in his lifetime, but he doesn't have to go too far away from home.

You don’t have to think too much about it, it’s good to be around your elders.

The two sat in the hall, and Li Haiyao pulled Chen Jun aside to ask what his grandfather had just said.

There was nothing to hide about this matter, so Chen Jun picked out the things he could say and made his selective answer a little vague.

Tell it to Li Haiyao.

the other side.

After Li Zhenhua left the living room, he didn't really go to rest.

Li Haiyao was able to come down from upstairs because the old man coaxed her down from upstairs.

Wang Lanfang watched the old man come upstairs. She smiled and stood up to make room on the sofa. She asked impatiently, "How was it? Did you feel okay chatting with Xiao Chen?"

"Ah."

The old man nodded slightly when he heard this: "He's a little cunning, but Chen Jun's seriousness in his work is OK."

"He's also a bit stubborn."

"Yaoyao has a good vision. If we give this child some time, he will achieve great things in the future."

"He is steady and thoughtful, which is not easy to find among young people."

"that is."

When Li Zhenhua said this, he frowned and said, "It's just that he is too young."

"She is three or four years younger than Yaoyao. Yaoyao is twenty-seven."

"Yaoyao is older than him, but that's not acceptable."

"You old man, why are you so stubborn? What's wrong with being older? I'm older than you."

Wang Lanfang had a kind smile on her face as she complained about her old man's uncivilized thinking.

But grandma also knew it, just based on the comments the old man just made.

The matter of these two children is almost half settled.

It is very likely that Xiao Chen will also be a member of the Li family in the future.

The love this old couple has for their granddaughter is truly beyond words. If it were any other young generation, the old man would definitely not pay so much attention to it.

"I just talked to Yaoyao, and she was quite satisfied with Xiao Chen."

When Wang Lanfang mentioned her little granddaughter, she couldn't suppress the smile on her face.

Her granddaughter knows herself best. She just chatted with him for a few minutes and every other sentence she talked about was about Chen Jun.

The two elders have reached this age and basically agree on the issue of their granddaughter.

As long as there is a good destination and Li Haiyao is determined to marry someone, everything will be fine.

The old man wouldn't say much.

If it's a test.

He did mention this just now, but that guy was too cunning and suggested that the Guard Division should not be exposed to synthesis.

He then talked about his role in the synthesis unit, evasively talking about this and that for a long time.

The desire to test him faded.

His original intention was not to interfere with the work of a cadre.

Even for the sake of his family, the old man would not set such a precedent.

"Tell Yaoyao to stay at home for a few days. I'll go back to work tomorrow to take care of some things."

"As for Chen Jun, don't force him. Young people should focus on work. If he wants to stay here, then he can stay. If he doesn't want to, tell Yaoyao not to interfere."

"Chen Jun's unit is undergoing a large-scale reorganization these days. There are major changes in the troops. If he can't stay, let him go back."

Li Zhenhua waved his hand, stood up and picked up a newspaper from the shelf next to him and started reading.

He didn't plan to go downstairs again.

The old man knew it clearly and knew that if he stayed downstairs, the three young men would feel uncomfortable.

Just don't join that young man in the fun.

Wang Lanfang nodded. She looked at the sky outside. It was already past four o'clock and it was almost dark.

So I turned around and went back to the first floor, taking some change with me, preparing to go out to buy some vegetables and cook in the evening.

downstairs.

Li Haiyao was originally sitting next to Chen Jun, listening to him with great interest as he talked about their previous conversation.

Seeing Wang Lanfang carrying a basket and about to go out, Li Haiyao quickly pulled Chen Jun up.

"Come on, let's go shopping with grandma. Grandma's cooking skills are really good."

"Silly child, let Xiao Chen rest at home, and you go with grandma."

"No, he can help carry things if he goes."

Li Haiyao didn't listen this time. She hugged Wang Lanfang with one hand and pulled Chen Jun with the other in a half-coquettish manner.

The three of us must go together.

Li Haiyao is not stupid. She has no idea what grandpa and grandma talked about just now.

In the past, my uncle’s brothers and sisters would bring their partners over, but they generally wouldn’t stay overnight at home.

I'll leave after staying for a day at most.

She was worried that Chen Jun would suddenly leave when she went to buy groceries.

Li Haiyao naturally knew in her heart that Chen Jun was uncomfortable in her own home.

But she has been trying her best to protect it. Even if she wants to leave, she will wait until after dinner.

She went to ask her grandfather for his advice and to see what impression he had of Chen Jun before letting him go.

then.

At Li Haiyao's strong request, Chen Jun was forced to act as a vegetable carrier and go out for a stroll.

In fact, Li Haiyao was right to worry. Chen Jun really didn't plan to live here, as long as he hadn't been brought here just now.

Chen Jun was planning to go to the leader to say goodbye.

Even if he came again tomorrow, he wouldn't be able to live here shamelessly since it was his first time here.

Because he still hasn't figured out what the old man means, so he just stays here.

It is indeed inappropriate!!
