this is a big company

Chapter 24 Good things are coming
"The pistol handed over to Comrade Xiuqin yesterday only had four bullets, but today she used up two.

The Browning pistol that Chu Yunfei gave me only had this box of bullets.You take it to Comrade Yang Xiuqin, and let her save some money. If the fight is over this time, it will really be gone. "

Yang Mu nodded, turned around and went to the village committee to look for Yang Xiuqin.

When I arrived outside the village compound, I heard a group of women chatting together, probably still holding needlework.

Sew some military shoes, military uniforms and the like to support the army.

Surrounded by them, Yang Xiuqin asked questions.

"Xiuqin, do you really mean that to Captain Li?"

"That's right, Xiuqin, don't be embarrassed to say it, we can all see it.

If you dare to admit it, we will directly help you find Captain Li as a matchmaker. "

Yang Mu entered the courtyard and handed a box of bullets to Yang Xiuqin.

"The things the leader asked me to bring to you, this box is full of bullets from your small gun.

He also asked me to tell you that the Browning pistol only has such a box of ammunition, and it will be gone after it is finished, so you can save it. "

After conveying Li Yunlong's instructions, Yang Mu smiled to Aunt Zhao in the crowd:

"Aunt Zhao, our regiment leader is very satisfied with Comrade Yang Xiuqin.

Although he usually looks carefree, but he has never experienced this kind of thing, and he is quite embarrassed.

If you want to think about Comrade Xiuqin, hurry up and talk to our political commissar Zhao, and let our political commissar Zhao do ideological work for him.

All of us are waiting, wanting to eat the wedding candy from the head of the group and Comrade Xiuqin early!

what do you say? "

Aunt Zhao is an elder in the village, and she watched Yang Xiuqin grow up.

Aunt Zhao has always been extremely concerned about the marriage of the juniors.Hearing Yang Mu's words, his brows were filled with joy, and his face was full of smiles.

Putting the soles of the shoes on her knees, Aunt Zhao patted her thighs and said annoyedly:

"Why didn't I think of it? Or you can say that young people's brains are so fast!
No, I have to go to the political commissar now and talk to him about it. "

Although Aunt Zhao is not young, she is a quick-witted person.As soon as he finished speaking, he stuffed the semi-finished shoes into Yang Xiuqin's arms.

"Xiuqin! My aunt, I will help you make this good thing happen as soon as possible. You stay here and finish the rest of the aunt's work."

Although this matter was dealing with Yang Xiuqin's major marriage, none of the people present had any intention of asking for her opinion.

It's strange!

He was obviously the party involved, but he didn't have the slightest right to speak.

This matter is not surprising, everyone understands Yang Xiuqin's thoughts.And her parents are no longer there, and her only brother is not around either.

At this time, the only ones who can stand up and make decisions for her are the elders in the village!

A group of women expressed their enthusiasm for this matter.On the other hand, Yang Xiuqin, who is usually the most active, hugged Mrs. Zhao's shoe soles by herself, without saying a word, just focusing on her hands, doing her needlework seriously.

Yang Mu took Aunt Zhao to find the political commissar.After Zhao Gang heard about her intentions, he clapped his hands and said, "This is a good thing! I agree with it with both hands!
But Mrs. Zhao, I still have to ask more questions, after all, this also involves the discipline of the Eighth Route Army.

Are you sure that Comrade Yang Xiuqin is willing to this marriage?Is it voluntary?No one is forcing! "

Aunt Zhao patted her thigh and said:

"Commissioner Zhao, what are you talking about!

This child Xiuqin is just like my own daughter, who doesn't know her thoughts!Besides, this girl has been stubborn since she was a child. If she doesn't want to, auntie, I can make up my mind! "

Zhao Gang hurriedly laughed and said:
"Ms. Zhao, don't be angry! This is just a routine inquiry on behalf of the organization. It's just a procedure! There is no other meaning!
Don't think about it too much, I ask you to rest assured, Comrade Yang Xiuqin and our regiment leader's marriage, I will help you find out now!
I will definitely settle this matter as soon as possible, and make you happy all the time. "

The discipline of the Eighth Route Army is strict, and it does not allow the use of power to embarrass women's wishes.

Often when you get married, you must submit an application to the organization and wait for the organization's review.After the review is passed, the two parties will be allowed to marry.

For an important cadre of the Eighth Route Army like Li Yunlong, the necessary procedures are definitely indispensable.

As a political commissar with a background as a political worker, Zhao Gang would not make mistakes on this matter of principle.

After promising Aunt Zhao the results as soon as possible, Zhao Gang went straight to the regiment headquarters compound.

Seeing Zhao Gang and Yang Mu coming in together, Li Yunlong asked:
"Monk, have you given the bullet to Comrade Xiuqin?"

Yang Mu snapped a salute and said:

"Report to the head of the regiment! The things have been handed over to Comrade Yang Xiuqin."

Li Yunlong nodded, then turned to ask Zhao Gang:
"Old Zhao, aren't you busy with work at this point? Why did you get it done so quickly today?"

Zhao Gang looked at the two bottles of Fenjiu on the table and said with a smile:

"Didn't I hear that someone gave the leader two bottles of good wine? So I brought something over to drink."

Hearing this, Li Yunlong stared and scolded:
"Tnd, our old Li just got two bottles of wine, where did your old Zhao know about it?
Monk!Did your kid leak the news! "

Yang Mu laughed a few times without saying a word, and put the plate of peanuts he brought on the table.

Zhao Gang found three bowls on his own, unscrewed the lid of the wine bottle, and poured wine for the three of them.

Lao Li looked at the two of them, and said angrily with a look of seeing nothing:

"Hey, you two really don't regard yourself as outsiders! Are you two the master? Or am I the master?
Dare to Love this wine is not for me, but for you two! "

Zhao Gang picked up the wine bowl on his own, took a sip first, then threw two peanuts into his mouth, chewed and said:
"Isn't it just two sips of wine! I brought peanuts here! Look at how you buckle!"

Li Yunlong pointed at Zhao Gang and said:
"Peanuts are brought by monks, what does it have to do with you? It's fine to come here empty-handed for drinking, and you're the only one who talks too much!"

"Hey! What are you talking about? I, Lao Zhao, don't drink easily. I can come to drink with you, and it's not because of your face, Lao Li. I heard that sister Xiuqin brought me from the city. Two bottles of Shanxi Fenjiu.

I can't miss this rare good thing. "

Hearing this, Li Yunlong glared at Yang Mu again, he lowered his head and pretended not to see it.He stared straight at the black glaze on the edge of the wine bowl, as if he was studying how the glaze was so evenly applied!

"Old Li, Comrade Xiuqin is really nice!"

"When did our old Li say that people are not good? If not, he can take the position of women's director?

In this position, if the person is not good and the ideas are not progressive, it is impossible for the organization to be entrusted to her. "

"Well, from the meaning of your old Li's words, I have a good impression of Comrade Xiuqin."

Li Yunlong put down the wine bowl, stared at Zhao Gang with a half-smile and said:
"I said Old Zhao, how can I listen, there is something in your words!

You didn't come to drink with me today, did you?Speak quickly if you have something to say, and let go of farts quickly.Do we brothers need to hide it? "

"Okay, if you have this sentence, then I will explain it clearly.

Old Li, you are not too young, it is time to think about personal issues.

Comrade Xiuqin, people also have hearts for you, and everyone can see it.

Now that we have talked to this point, you can also give me an accurate statement.

What do you think about this, Lao Li?What are you thinking! "

Li Yunlong took a sip of Fenjiu and sighed again:
"Old Zhao, you said that this matter is a mess!
I, Li Yunlong, am not blind or deaf.We can see clearly what people are thinking, and we are not ignorant people.

It's just that our old Li is a rough guy, he doesn't look very good, and he is still so old.

I'm afraid that I won't be worthy of others, and I will be delayed by others! "

"Hahaha!" Zhao Gang laughed a few times.

"Old Li, Old Li, what do you want me to say to you?

Thanks to the fact that you are also a cadre of the Eighth Route Army, how can you still have such feudal sect thinking!

We are all revolutionary fighters, so there is no question of being worthy or not!
Besides, since ancient times in China, when a woman looks for her husband’s family, what she looks for is the man’s character and ability.As for looks, they are all dispensable things!
Other girls don't despise you, but I despise myself! "

Yang Mu also persuaded from the side:

"Leader, don't just belittle yourself all the time, you know what Comrade Ren Xiuqin thinks!"

When Li Yunlong heard it, he thought that Yang Xiuqin was dissatisfied with him, so he quickly asked, "What do you think?"

"I'm still thinking over there, Captain Li is an Eighth Route Army regiment-level cadre after all! As for her, she's just a big girl from the countryside. She hasn't read much and doesn't know a few words. I'm afraid she won't be good enough for you as a cadre.

Otherwise, relying on Comrade Xiuqin's vigor, I would have already figured it out for you personally, there is no need for the political commissar to take action.

So say it, Captain.Neither of you should complain about your own background, and don't feel that you are not good enough for the other.

In my opinion, the two of you are the most suitable! "

Li Yunlong pondered for a long time, drinking wine to himself.A long time passed, and there was no words.

Zhao Gang couldn't bear it anymore and asked:

"Lao Li has already talked about this, so what worries do you have? Why are you so unhappy?"

"Old Zhao, Monk! Hearing what you said today, I am both happy and worried.

The happy thing is that Li Yunlong, a mud-legged boy who grew up eating a lot of food, now has a big girl who likes us!

What worries me is that we are now fighting everywhere, and as cadres, we are running around with the troops, and there is no time for peace.

Maybe one day on the battlefield, a bullet or a shell will be gone if people say it’s gone.

You say this, how can our old Li have the heart to go and trouble the big girl again! "

Zhao Gang slapped the wine bowl on the table, and the wine in the bowl splashed everywhere.

"Old Li, what do you call that? According to what you say, oh, none of the cadres of our Eighth Route Army can get married!"

Li Yunlong looked distressed at the splashed wine on the table, and said with a sneer:
"No, that's not what I meant."

Zhao Gang has to be reasonable and not forgiving!
"That's not what you mean? Then what do you mean by that!
Let me ask you now, do you have any interest in Miss Xiuqin? "

Li Yunlong nodded hurriedly.

"Interesting, interesting!"

"That means you have no objection to the marriage!"

Li Yunlong looked at the aggressive Zhao Gang, smiled wryly and said:
"No objection, no objection!"

Zhao Gang nodded in satisfaction.

"That's right, the two of us have a clear division of labor. You have the final say on military matters, and I have the final say on life matters!
It is a matter of your life, Lao Li, it is also a matter of life.Since you also said that you have no objection, then I will worry about it for you.

After drinking this meal, I will inform Aunt Zhao.

Lao Li, you have already nodded in agreement, and you will make arrangements for that as soon as possible.

Wait for me to report to the head of the headquarters and go through the process.

Let's fix the date, and when the time comes, I will ask the chief to come over and be your witness! "

Li Yunlong slandered: "I let you finish all the good things, what else can I say!"I can only be a response to the despicable power of your political commissar Zhao!

"All right, all right, I'll listen to you!"

Yang Mu was very happy when he heard this, and hurriedly said:
"The two chiefs drink first, and I will come as soon as I go."

Seeing Yang Mu running away in a hurry, Li Yunlong was still unhappy and said:

"Monk Wei, he's already become a company commander, but he still has rough hair and doesn't look steady."

Zhao Gang saw Yang Mu's thoughts, and said with a smile:

"Leave him alone, monk, he must have announced the good news to Aunt Zhao."

When Yang Mu arrived at the village compound, none of the people there left, all eagerly waiting for the news.

As soon as they saw him, they immediately surrounded him, asking whether the matter was successful or not!
After knowing the result from Yang Mu's mouth, they were all extremely happy, and gathered in front of Yang Xiuqin to congratulate her.

Early the next morning, a soldier notified Yang Mu that local comrades from the village head were looking for him.

It made him confused, and after thinking for a long time, he couldn't figure out who was looking for him.

When he got to the village compound, he found out that Yang Xiuqin was waiting for him there!
"Comrade Xiuqin, ah, no, I should call you sister-in-law instead."

Yang Xiuqin blushed a little at Yang Mu's words.Compared with the usual carefree, he is a little awkward, but overall he is still generous.

Hand him a pair of shoes.

"Monk, these are the new shoes I made for Captain Li overnight yesterday. Give them to him for me to try to see if they fit. If they don't fit, remember to take them back and I'll change them for him."

Yang Mu took the shoes and took a closer look, the craftsmanship was really good.The stitching is fine and the base is thick, which is particularly durable at first glance.

"Sister-in-law, is it so troublesome to use? Why don't you just send it to the head of the regiment? Don't you usually go to the regiment headquarters?"

Yang Xiuqin rolled his eyes at him and said:

"Monk, you don't know if it's true or not! Once a marriage is engaged, the man and woman cannot meet before they get married."

Yang Mu patted his head, with a look of sudden realization, indeed he had heard about it, and there was such a saying.

"Okay, I'll send it to the leader right away. Sister-in-law, do you have anything else to do here?"

Yang Xiuqin waved her hand and said, "It's okay, you can go now."
