Siheyuan: Spring and Autumn

At this time, Qin Leshan finally found a topic and asked, "Xiao Zheng, is the war over?"

Qin Zheng said: "No, there is always fighting on the front line."

"Then why are you back?"

Qin Zheng said: "Our country's army went to fight in North Korea in a rotation system, that is, they went in batches. In October last year, some troops had returned home one after another. My unit was one of the earliest to return."

After a pause, he continued, "Besides, I have been at the Volunteer Army Headquarters for more than a year and have not been to the front line to fight."

Han Qing immediately responded, "Then why don't you come back?"

Qin Zheng smiled and said, "Mom, although I'm not going to the front line, I can't come back. I have been responsible for training soldiers for more than a year."

Qin Ming suddenly asked: "How did that soldier call you commander just now? Is he a soldier under your command? What is your current rank?"

"The soldier just now was from the Beijing Military Region. It should be our army commander who helped to contact him. As soon as I got off the train, he found me and said he was ordered to send me home. I am now a battalion-level cadre."

Qin Leshan asked in surprise: "Battalion level? So high?"

When battalion-level cadres are transferred to civilian jobs, the state will arrange jobs for them, and they will be directly promoted to section-level cadres, which is the same level as the directors of the neighborhood committees in Beijing. If they are transferred to the county, they will be promoted to bureau-level cadres. It is not surprising that Qin Leshan was shocked.

"Well, I was at the front, and I worked my way up from a soldier to a squad leader, platoon leader, and company commander. Later, I went to the headquarters and was promoted to battalion commander."

Han Qing asked: "Are you okay? Where are you hurt?"

Qin Zheng said: "I am in good health. I don't even have a scratch on my skin. I don't have any scars at all."

"Humph, I've read the newspaper, and you've been shocked by the cannon and vomited blood."

Qin Zheng was stunned for a moment, and explained: "It was just a shock at the time, and even the internal organs were not injured. After a while, there was no problem."

Han Qing wanted to say something, but Qin Leshan interrupted her and said, "Recruiting at the battalion level means you have cadre status. Can't you just go back to work?"

Qin Zheng said: "I can work. But I don't want to start working right away. I think I still need to go to college and learn more so that I can better serve the country."

Han Qing said, "Yes, I need to go to college and learn more. Don't scare me anymore, I still want to live a few more years."

"I know, Mom. Don't worry, I won't do it again."

"Huh, I hope you do what you say."

Han Qing stood up and said, "I'm going to the market to buy some more meat dishes. I've already eaten all the ones I bought today."

Qin Zheng immediately stopped her and said, "Mom, you don't have to buy it. The package I brought back contains confiscated canned food, most of which are meat."

Qin Han then noticed that there were six large packages on the ground next to him, and asked quickly, "Second brother, what's in these packages?"

Qin Zheng said: "I only have one package, which contains food and clothes. The other five were prepared by the army, and I don't know what is in them."

"Then take a quick look."

"Okay, let's unpack."

After saying that, the family started to get busy. When all the things were taken out, everyone in the family was almost dumbfounded.

The contents of each package given by the army are basically the same.

As for food, there were eighty boxes of canned food, forty boxes of chocolates, and six cans of coffee;

As for clothing, there were ten military coats alone, two in each package, as well as woolen underwear, gloves, scarves, hats, etc.

In terms of daily necessities, there were 10 watches, 5 of which were women's watches, as well as razors, flashlights, and more than 4 packs of cigarettes, including two M bayonets and a pair of binoculars.

Qin Zheng knew that there were many female soldiers in the US army, and it was not uncommon to seize women's watches. Unfortunately, he had never captured a female soldier.

"This is too much! What should I do?"

Han Qing murmured.

It's not that she is surprised by these things, but the value of these things is higher than all her assets combined.

"Dad, Mom, don't worry, just keep them. I don't know how many of these things I captured on the battlefield, but I've basically handed them all in. I believe my comrades will send me more in the future."

He had to set up an ambush now. Later, when he took out the things in the space, he would have an excuse. They were sent by his comrades, so who would check? Who dared to check?

Qin Han asked curiously: "Second brother, what canned food do you have?"

"There's beef, luncheon meat, fish, and pork."

Looking at the beautiful watches on the table, Qin Ming picked one up and said, "This watch is really beautiful."

Qin Zheng smiled and said, "Brother, these are the uniform military watches that the US military equips officers with. They are not too advanced."

Qin Ming was surprised: "Isn't this advanced?"

"This is a common product for military use. Of course, the quality and design are good, and it is no worse than those used by civilians."

After that, he took out two watches from his package and said, "Dad, brother, the watches you wear are international brands, better than military watches."

As he spoke, he handed a watch to Qin Leshan and said, "Dad, this watch was originally owned by a brigadier general of the US Army, and I killed and seized it."

Qin Leshan was shocked and asked, "Is this a general's?"

"Yes, it's the watch of Brigadier General Puller, deputy commander of the 1st Marine Division. The brand is Patek Philippe, a famous European watch. I don't know which model it is, but it should be quite valuable."

Then he handed another watch to Qin Ming and said, "Brother, this watch is Vacheron Constantin. It belongs to the director of the Operations Department of the 1st Marine Division of the United States. It is also a famous European watch."

Qin Ming quickly put down the military watch in his hand and took the watch handed to him. It was so beautiful that he really couldn't let it go.

Then he casually asked, "Director of the Operations Department, what is his rank?"

"Colonel."

Qin Ming's hand trembled. This man held a very high position and was about to become a brigadier general.

"Mom, this is a women's watch, you can wear it. It's also a famous European watch, from Cartier."

There are five women's watches on the table, all of which look pretty good. Qin Zheng recognizes the brand of this watch, and the other four should be military watches.

"I won't wear it. Put it away and let your wife wear it in the future."

Qin Zheng smiled and said, "The other four pieces all look good. Brother, pick one for my future sister-in-law."

Before Qin Ming could speak, Qin Han said, "Second brother, did you also hear that eldest brother went on a blind date today?"

"I don't know. Is it done?"

"It's done. My future sister-in-law is from our hometown, Niulanshan. Her name is Xu Huizhen."

Qin Zheng was really stunned this time.

Xu Huizhen, why does this name sound so familiar?

Oh, could it be the heroine in “The Little Woman of Zhengyang Gate”?

She went on a blind date with the eldest brother and it actually succeeded?

Does it have to be so fantasy?

It seems that the flapping of my wings has a great impact!

However, he quickly reacted and said to Qin Ming: "Congratulations, brother. You can give the watch as a gift to my future sister-in-law."

Seeing Qin Ming's shy look, Han Qing smiled and said, "You are brothers, so don't be so polite. You have been worried all day long since he left. Taking two watches from him is nothing."

Qin Han also said: "Yes, I want one too."

After saying that, she also started to choose.
