Wang Tiedan personally took Secretary Zhao to the steel rolling mill and found Xu Damao leisurely sipping tea in the Propaganda Department.

"Secretary Zhao, you said I was going to take a boat. Here is another person who is going to take a boat." Wang Tiedan said with a smile.

"When did I take the boat?"

Xu Damao didn't understand, but still asked Wang Tiedan and Secretary Zhao to sit down and poured them some water.

"Why is Brother Zhao here too? Has the problem been resolved?"

"I've solved it. I came here to thank you and Director Li."

"No, no, these are just trivial matters. Director Li has gone to study at some school for half a month. I'm afraid you've made a wasted trip."

"Thank you, too."

"Haha, that's too formal!"

Wang Tiedan saw Secretary Zhao and Xu Damao chatting animatedly and asked, "Hey, when did you two become so familiar with each other?"

"We drank at the same table at your brother's wedding, have you forgotten?" Xu Damao said with a smile.

"I was so tired that I did my splits. How could I remember? You are awesome. You helped Secretary Zhao without making any noise."

"We are all acquaintances, why be polite?"

This is how you have to do things, you can't take credit for it, Xu Damao knows this very well.

First, he did a favor to Wang Tiedan, and second, he further established friendship with Secretary Zhao, killing two birds with one stone.

Secretary Zhao was also happy from the bottom of his heart.

"How about this, I'll treat you tonight and we can drink together?"

"You can eat, but forget about drinking." Xu Damao waved his hands hurriedly.

Secretary Zhao was a little confused and looked at Wang Tiedan.

Wang Tiedan hurriedly explained.

"He is sick and needs to take medicine. He can't drink alcohol for ten days. Secretary Zhao, please don't worry about the meal. I know your salary is not high and you have to take care of the whole family.

If you do this, when Director Li comes, it will be almost spring, and you can provide the factory with a few thousand kilograms of fish, which is better than any gratitude."

"Yes, yes, that's the best!" Xu Damao also echoed.

"Director Li needs this, and so does the factory. We purchase it at the market price and can also support the village, killing two birds with one stone."

"Is this okay?"

Secretary Zhao asked Wang Tiedan if he wanted to go fishing, he must have his support.

"Don't worry, you can definitely do it!"

The three chatted for a while, and then Wang Tiedan and Secretary Zhao left the steel mill together.

Secretary Zhao originally planned to stay overnight before going back, but since he couldn't treat Li Huaide and Xu Damao to dinner, he simply did some shopping and returned to Miyun overnight with the villagers he was traveling with.

After Wang Tiedan went out, he always felt that he had forgotten something, so he returned home reluctantly.

When I saw Qin Jingru, I remembered that I had forgotten to send the telegram and the gift money.

Forget it, let’s talk about it in two days.

Time passed quickly, and half a month had passed in the blink of an eye. Everyone took off their cotton coats and trousers and wore light clothes instead.

Wang Tiedan continued his simple and unpretentious life, regularly receiving goods from the village and Tianjin, and going fishing from time to time to earn extra money.

Of course, most people just wander around the streets.

Shouhou and Dahan both said goodbye to being single. Shouhou's girlfriend Man Lingling still has to go to work, and Dahan's girlfriend Zhu Jie still has to go to school.

So they have plenty of time to waste for the time being.

However, such days are soon broken by marriage, and may never happen again.

At first, Shouhou and Man Lingling discussed it and planned to get engaged around May Day, and then choose a good day to get the wedding done.

When they arrived at Dahan, an accident happened. It wasn't a marriage, but good things come to those who wait.

Zhu Jie is a child of a wealthy family. Her family is very open-minded and does not object to their daughter being with Dahan. However, they do have many opinions and suggestions about the future of their future son-in-law.

Especially after seeing Dahan's appearance.

They specially brought Dahan to the training base. With his physique, strength, willpower and tenacity, he is an excellent choice. It would be a waste if he didn't join the army.

The family even considered sending Shouhou and Wang Tiedan to the army as a pair.

Regardless of whether to join the army or not, being a partner is too much.

Wang Tiedan refused immediately, saying that his brother was living off his parents and had a bright future, and he would absolutely support him.

But I absolutely cannot be disturbed when I am lying down. I have a big family to attend to and my wife is pregnant, so she definitely cannot leave.

Skinny Monkey was a little hesitant. Every man has the dream of becoming a soldier. He and Dahan were used to it and he was afraid that Dahan would suffer if he went there.

But he is still the eldest in the family, he will be away for at least three years, and he has to get married, so he has not made up his mind.

Dahan's family is even simpler. Since he can remember, he has been dependent on his mother and sister. He is worried, and his family members are also worried. After all, in that era, being a soldier is dangerous.

If something happens, the Wu family (Dahan family) will be extinct.

Joining the army is indeed an opportunity to change your destiny, especially with the support of a noble person, you must seize it.

Neither the Hou family nor Dahan's mother were unreasonable people, so they unanimously decided to send these two people to the army.

There was no other reason, they just couldn't stand the sight of Wang Tiedan and his three companions idling around all day.

Although he makes a lot of money, he acts like a street urchin all day long, which is really infuriating and funny.

Now that we have the opportunity to change, we must seize it.

Arranging enlistment is a very complicated matter. Dahan and Shouhou were specially recruited, so they quickly completed the physical examination and were waiting for Zhu Jie's family to make arrangements so they could set off at any time.

At that time, Zhu Jie will also drop out of school and join the army, which is considered a special arrangement by his family.

Wang Tiedan couldn't even imagine what this little southern potato would look like in a military uniform.

The worst case was Man Lingling. She got engaged in advance, but her husband had to go to the army. Although her family strongly supported her to go, it was still a bit cruel for a girl like her.

On this day, Wang Tiedan and his wife, Shouhou and his fiancée Man Lingling, Dahan and his girlfriend Zhu Jie, as well as their younger brothers and sisters, gathered at Fengze Garden.

It is not only to improve their food, but also to see them off and to commemorate their soon-to-be-gone street life.

Wang Tiedan raised his glass first.

"Monkey, Dahan, go ahead and don't worry. From now on, I will take care of your family. Your parents are my parents, your brothers and sisters are my brothers and sisters, and your wife is my wife."

"Um???"

All the adults at the table glared at Wang Tiedan.

Wang Tiedan was not embarrassed. He smiled and immediately changed his words.

"I'm wrong, I'm wrong. Your wives are all my sisters too."

"That's about it!"

Wang Tiedan continued, "I promise three things here. First, whatever my family eats, your family will eat the same thing. There will definitely be no shortage of fish, meat, flour, and rice.

Second, I often visit my elderly parents at home. If they need help, I will definitely help them and never let them worry about money.

Finally, I will arrange for your brothers and sisters to go to Erye for tutoring. But I must emphasize this point, mainly targeting Hou Xiaoming.

Monkey, I can’t guarantee whether he will learn well or not, we have to make it clear in advance.”

Hou Xiaoming is Shouhou's younger brother. He is the last in the class and is better than Banggeng, but also limited.

The skinny monkey smiled and rubbed his brother's head, there was nothing he could do.

"It's okay, Tiedan. We all believe in you. We are brothers, so there's no need to say anything more. Let's just drink."

"Yes, let's drink~" Dahan also raised his glass.
