People say that I regret being a soldier for a while, and I regret not being a soldier for a lifetime, I am such a veteran, and those years in the army are also what I miss the most, and the comradeship is also the deepest memory of my life!
But since I was discharged from the army, I can't see those comrades-in-arms often, we have been thinking that we can have a day together, after receiving a call from the old squad leader Wang Shun, I am very happy, this agreement is finally going to be realized, I began to prepare early.
When I graduated from high school, my grades were not very good, so my father arranged for me to join the army, but at that time, I was afraid of hardship, so I fought with my father for several days, but finally I couldn't twist my arm and thigh and went to the army.
I couldn't hold on to the hard training in the army for a while, but gradually I liked it, and when I left, it was like a knife twisting.
The people in the same class as me took good care of me, and gradually we developed a deep relationship, and the two years in the army passed quickly.
I relied on my own ability to stay in the team smoothly, I thought that I could stay in this barracks for the rest of my life, but it backfired, I was injured in a training session, and my body was no longer suitable to continue to stay in the army, and finally I had to retire.
After returning to my hometown, because of my status as a veteran, I quickly found a job, and then I met my wife, and we formed a happy family, our son was born within a few years, and my comrades-in-arms at the same time also changed jobs one after another.
At the beginning, our comrades-in-arms often kept in touch with each other, and sometimes we would get together, but we were all old and young, and the burden on our bodies was not light, and then we didn't see each other again, and we didn't get together for several years.
Usually Wang Shun is the one who organizes our party, when he was in the army, the relationship between the two of us was very good, he was born in a wealthy family, never worried about snacks and clothing, often brought us a lot of delicious food, after returning from the job, he also gave me a lot of help.
When the day was agreed, I received nine comrades-in-arms who were driving two cars, and I attached great importance to this, and had prepared a banquet in advance at the best local hotel.
After seeing our comrades-in-arms, we all burst into tears, hugged each other for a long time and were reluctant to separate, and my wife said that we were too numb.
She has never been a soldier, she doesn't know this kind of comradeship, I took my wife and son to accompany them to eat that day, and then in order to accompany my brothers, I asked my wife to take the children home, we came out of KTV that night, chatted all night.
Although I was not wealthy, after the arrival of my comrades-in-arms, I still wanted to entertain them with the best and most handy, so I directly asked for a week's leave.
I don't care about anything every day, I just take my brothers to my hometown, and it's been almost a week since they came, and I still have no intention of leaving, and I cherish such an not easy get-together, and my wife has an opinion at this time.
My wife was actually very enthusiastic at the beginning, but when I saw that I always asked for leave to accompany these comrades, I complained, after all, our family was not particularly wealthy, especially entertaining them every day, spending a lot of money outside, and my wife's face became more and more gloomy.
My wife grabbed me and said to me: "Husband, you comrades-in-arms have a good relationship with each other, this cannot be denied, but you also have to work, where can you earn money to support your family if you don't work, when will you comrades-in-arms leave?" It's only been less than a week, and I've spent 30,000 yuan to entertain them, how much money does our family have enough for you to build, if you can't save face, I'll go and tell them."
Hearing my wife's complaints, I hurriedly stopped her, I coaxed my wife and said to my wife: "Wife, don't be angry, they haven't come once for many years, let me accompany them this time, you wait for two more days, they all have jobs, they won't always rely on not leaving, you bear with it, don't let them see that something is wrong, just let me beg you." ”
And I really didn't expect my brothers to behave like that.
My wife agreed when she heard me say this, and I stayed with my brothers for a few more days, during which we reminisced about the days when we were soldiers.
At the same time, Liu Xizhou was also mentioned, and all of us fell into deep thought when we talked about him, Liu Xizhou can be described as a pistachio in our class at that time.
When he was discharged from the army, he shouted the most, saying that he wanted to come to my hometown for a turn, but now nine comrades-in-arms have come, but without him, we all fell into sadness at the thought that he could never come again.
Liu Xizhou became a firefighter after changing jobs, and he continued to contribute to the country in another way, having died a few years ago.
After reminiscing about the past, Wang Shun suddenly proposed to go back tomorrow, after all, they have been out for nine days, and it is not good to go back again, I proposed to let them go to their home for a meal as a send-off meal.
I called my parents, wife and sister to help make a hearty lunch, and everyone was in a harmonious atmosphere at the banquet, and my wife temporarily forgot about the previous unhappiness.
After the nine brothers were about to leave, after a few of them got into the car, Wang Shun suddenly called me to the side of the car, quickly handed me a thing, he opened his mouth and said to me: "This is the mind of the brothers, the big guy knows that it is not easy for you to support your family, we have caused you a lot of trouble here for a few days, this money is our New Year's money for the little nephew, you take it, don't push back."
After I finished speaking, I couldn't help refusing, so I started the car and left, and after I went back, I took out the bag, which contained a full nine red envelopes, each containing 10,000 yuan, and a piece of paper.
After seeing these red envelopes, my wife also fell silent, and my comrades-in-arms also thought about me in their hearts, they had already discussed that I would not suffer if I paid the money, and it was only then that my wife and I really understood our comradeship.
