In the winter of 2002, I was assigned by the company to the recruit company as a platoon leader. There was a recruit from a southern coastal city in the platoon, and after learning that I was still a single, he had to introduce me to his aunt who was a flight attendant. After my euphemistic refusal, he actually let his sister-in-law come to the recruit company directly.
This recruit was named Xiao Zhen, the youngest of our platoon. Although he is not tall and his military quality is not strong, his head is particularly flexible.
For example, sorting out internal affairs, which is often the most headache for recruits, but Xiao Zhen is different, and his internal affairs package can be rated as the "internal affairs pacesetter" of the whole company every week.
At first, I thought that Xiao Zhen had worked harder than others, until one morning I got up early and saw Xiao Zhen sleeping with his coat covered, and the folded quilt was squarely placed at the head of the bed...
I couldn't bear to wake him up, covered him with my own quilt and left.
After dinner that day, watching the news, I took Xiao Zhen to the playground to talk while walking, and he told me the truth.
It turned out that he got up at five o'clock every morning, folded the quilt and took it to the study room, and then ironed the corners and corners of the quilt with an iron. In doing so, the squad leader could not see that the quilt had been ironed, and the level of internal affairs packages was of high quality.
The key is that every time the squad leader gets up and sees That Xiao Zhen's quilt is folded, he only thinks that he got up a few minutes in advance, and never suspected that Xiao Zhen slept with a coat.
I know that he is also well-intentioned, but he has used his cleverness in the wrong place, and I really can't bear to criticize him.
I told Xiao Zhen that "the troops pay attention to going out to see the team, entering the door to see the internal affairs, and the internal affairs package is a direct embodiment of the internal nature of a soldier." If you use kung fu in the wrong place, instead of relying on solid kung fu to fold the quilt, then this soldier has no connotation. ”
Xiao Zhen probably didn't understand the meaning of the connotation, so I walked him back to the dormitory, pointed to the quilt of his squad leader and said, "Is your squad leader's quilt folded well?" ”
Xiao Zhen nodded and gave another thumbs up.
"The reason why your squad leader's quilt is folded well is that on the one hand, he has been a soldier for a long time, and his experience has changed from quantitative to qualitative, on the other hand, he has excellent ability and quality in all aspects, and he has been able to fully control this quilt."
I saw that Xiao Zhen still had a puzzled face, so he had to patiently explain, "In other words, the key to determining the quality of the housekeeping package is not the quilt itself, but the person who folds the quilt." Even if you give your squad leader a new quilt now, he can conquer it in the shortest possible time. ”
After Xiao Zhen listened, he came up with a sentence, "Is it the class leader who often says that the iron still needs to be hard?" ”
I was embarrassed to say, "Yes, that's the way it is." ”
After this incident, Xiao Zhen did not get up early to iron the quilt, and the quality of the housekeeping bag dropped significantly. But I saw him press the quilt as soon as he had time, and I knew he listened.
One weekend, after Calling home, Xiao Zhen suddenly ran to me to ask for a photo, saying that he wanted to keep it as a souvenir and asked me to sign my name.
I didn't think about it at the time, and found a photo of my time in military school and signed it and gave it to him.
More than a week later, I suddenly received a registered letter with a picture of a woman in it, and it seemed that the dress should be a flight attendant.
The general content of the letter is that she is Xiao Zhen's aunt, thank you for taking care of Xiao Zhen...
I was a little confused, do I still need to clip photos in the thank-you letter?
With doubts, he returned the photo to Xiao Zhen, but Xiao Zhen said, "Platoon leader, my aunt looks beautiful, right?" She hasn't had an object yet! ”
"Your sister-in-law has no one to let her find, what do you say to me?" I said.
Xiao Zhen smiled and giggled, "I have already helped her find it, and the photos have been seen, and she is quite satisfied." ”
"Isn't that just right?" After saying this, I instantly understood Xiao Zhen's meaning...
I asked him a little angrily, "Did you send me a picture to your sister-in-law?" ”
Xiao Zhen looked at me a little angry, and hurriedly said, "Platoon leader, don't worry, I think you and my aunt are very good, very suitable." ”
"Don't play the piano, just be your soldier."
After that, Xiao Zhen asked me at both ends of the three days whether I had written back to his aunt, and I said, "No time, no time." ”
Maybe later he felt bored himself and didn't mention it again for a while.
Originally thought that this farce was over, who knew that suddenly one day, Xiao Zhen said that his aunt just flew to this city tomorrow and stopped by to see him.
Although the recruit company did not support the family members to visit the recruits, they did not object, and I was not good at saying anything about it, so I could only nod my head in agreement.
Early the next morning, I asked the company commander for a leave of absence for Xiao Zhen and asked the squad leader to take Xiao Zhen to the camp gate to pick up his aunt.
I planned to let the squad leader come forward to receive it, but I didn't expect the company commander to come up with a god assist" After all, the family of the recruit came to the team, and the platoon leader came forward to receive it more seriously. ”
There was no way, I had to go to the reception room with a hard scalp.
To tell the truth, Xiao Zhen's aunt is indeed very temperamental, slim figure with a melon face painted with light makeup, plus a tweed trench coat and a shawl long hair, like a star on TV, more beautiful than in the photo.
Seeing me come in, she took the initiative to reach out and say, "Hello platoon leader, my name is Liu Xin." ”
I awkwardly stretched out my hand and shook it, and immediately shrank back, and then briefly introduced Xiao Zhen's situation and said, "You talk to Xiao Zhen, I still have something to do when I go out." After saying that, he withdrew in embarrassment.
In the face of such a good opposite sex, it is false to say that you are not moved. You can ask yourself, "As a soldier from the countryside, are you worthy of others?" ”
It is not that I am arrogant, nor that I do not have courage, but I always feel that I must have self-knowledge to be a person, not to mention that I am now at the age of doing business, and the private feelings of my children are not considered for the time being.
After sending Xiao Zhen's aunt away that day, Xiao Zhen said, "My aunt has a crush on you, so I will wait for you to reply to her!" ”
"What's the reply?" The two of us are not suitable at all, you don't play the piano, put your mind on training you! ”
Xiao Zhen was not dead hearted, and repeatedly asked me to reply to the letter, but I directly refused.
Later, the new recruits were sent down to the company, and Xiao Zhen was assigned to other companies.
When I gave him to the car, he gave me a note saying, "Hurry up and write back to my sister-in-law, she's still waiting for you!" ”
I thought about replying to the letter, but I really didn't know how to talk about it, thinking about the gap between the two, I gave up.
Until one day, the note with the address was no longer found...
