Chapter 74
When Xu Sanduo saw a non-commissioned officer questioning him, he quickly saluted respectfully: "Squad 5 of the third company, Xu Sanduo! Hello, squad leader!"
After the recruits got out of the company, non-commissioned officers who were not aware of were usually called squad leader.
It’s not wrong for Xu Sanduo to call this.
The non-commissioned officer named Wang replied with a greeting and asked with a smile: "Comrade Sanduo, your Class 5 is not in the training ground. Where are you so busy? "
"I...I want to plant flower seeds on the roadside, and...I want to go to the regiment headquarters to buy some flower seeds, and...I go to the regiment headquarters to see my comrades and fellow villagers. I...I asked for leave with our squad leader."
When Xu Sanduo explained this, his eyes dodged a little.
Seeing his timid look, Su Qiuyue felt helpless.
It was obviously a very legitimate and reasonable thing, but how could he be so confident when he said it from his mouth?
After hearing Xu Sanduo's stuttering words, the non-commissioned officer surnamed Wang was immediately happy: "Comrade Sanduo, you have a lot of ideas!"
"However, the journey from here to the regiment headquarters is not close. Are you planning to walk here?"
When Xu Sanduo saw that the non-commissioned officer did not criticize him for his whimsical thoughts, his tight face relaxed a little.
"I...I'm just trying my luck to see if I can run into the herdsman's car..."
The herdsmen's car that Xu Sanduo mentioned was naturally not cars or motorcycles, but ox carts and horse carts.
The herders on the grassland use these almost every time they go out.
"The herdsman's car is not easy to wait!"
The non-commissioned officer surnamed Wang followed happily, "But you are lucky, you happen to have a car to go to the regiment headquarters today!"
Xu Sanduo was stunned for a moment, then widened his eyes, stretched his neck, and looked around.
Look at him like this, it seems that he wants to see where the car the non-commissioned officer mentioned is.
Seeing his stupid look, the non-commissioned officer Wang couldn't help but grin, pushed open the car door, and said to Su Qiyue: "Comrade July, I'll sit in front, and you and your comrades will chat behind you!"
Su Qiyue agreed and reached out to Xu Sanduo and signaled: "Sanduo, come up, our car is just right to go to the regiment headquarters."
"Ah! Really?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Sanduo's eyes suddenly showed a look of surprise.
Looking at the smile on Su Qiyue's face, Xu Sanduo's somewhat nervous mood calmed down inexplicably.
After the car started again, Xu Sanduo gradually started talking and told Su Qiuyue about his story in Class 5.
"In July, there are few people there, but the place is big. Our squad leader Lao Ma, you are so nice to us!"
Listening to Xu Sanduo's nagging, Su Qiyue did not feel bored.
He could understand Xu Sanduo's loneliness on the grassland.
Just like the profession he had in the first place, he had no friends, no relatives, only boundless loneliness on the grassland.
When he happened to meet his comrade-in-arms in the recruit company, he was afraid that he would say all the trivial things.
"We have a Li Meng there, who writes novels every day, and it's very well written! By the way, there is also Lao Wei..."
In the one-hour drive, Xu Sanduo was almost always talking and Su Qiuyue was listening.
Later, Xu Sanduo himself felt a little embarrassed.
He secretly looked at Su Qiyue's peaceful expression and asked with a hurried look: "Juyue, how are you... doing in the 7th Company?"
Regarding Xu Sanduo's question, Su Qiuyue thought for a moment and said with a smile: "It's not bad! Our squad leader is the platoon leader of our recruit company; and your squad leader Wu Liuyi in the recruit company, is our squad deputy..."
"Platform Commander Shi! Is he okay with Platoon Commander Shi?"
When Xu Sanduo heard Shi Jin's name, he immediately raised his tone with some excitement.
"Platform Commander Shi, is he squad leader Shi Jin?"
The non-commissioned officer named Wang, who was in front of him, couldn't help but turn around and ask.
Xu Sanduo nodded, nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes! Platoon Commander Shi has treated me well in the recruit company!"
The non-commissioned officer surnamed Wang nodded, turned to look at Su Qiyue and said, "Squad Leader Shi is the third year of a third-level non-commissioned officer, right? Just like our squad leader!"
After hearing this, Su Qiyue's heart suddenly became tight.
Yes, Shi Jin is the third year of a third-level non-commissioned officer this year, and it is time to be transferred to a fourth-level non-commissioned officer in one year.
However, it is extremely difficult to become a fourth-level non-commissioned officer.
Although Shi Jin has certain personal honors, he has no obvious advantage over several other third-level non-commissioned officers in the regiment.
Originally, Su Qiyue always believed that Xu Sanduo had not yet reached the 7th Company, so it should have been too early for the squad leader to be discharged from the army.
But now after hearing the unintentional words of the non-commissioned officer surnamed Wang, he suddenly felt a sense of urgency.
"You can't delay any more. You must find a way to solve the matter of Squad Leader Shi!"
With a strong fist, Su Qiyue made up her mind to say.
After hesitating for a moment, Xu Sanduo couldn't help but ask, "July, why did you take our Third Company car to the regiment headquarters?"
Before Su Qiyue could explain, the non-commissioned officer named Wang in the front row was already laughing and shouting.
"Sanduo, Comrade July went to the regiment headquarters to give us a lecture. Don't you know that the group sergeant examination will be held in two months. Comrade July is a top student. In terms of cultural courses, we all rely on him to tutor!"
After hearing the explanation of the non-commissioned officer named Wang, Xu Sanduo immediately realized it.
He said to Su Qiyue a little happy: "July, you are always so outstanding!"
Su Qiuyue's excellence will not stimulate Xu Sanduo at all.
In his mind, this young man of the same age as him should be so outstanding.
Looking at the sincere smile on his face, Su Qiyue sighed a little.
In philosophical theory, there is a concept of focus effect, that is, an expression of overestimating the attention of people around them to their appearance and behavior.
The focus effect means that humans tend to see themselves as the center of everything and intuitively overestimate how much others pay for themselves.
Normally, the focus effect is not a good thing.
But in Su Qiyue's opinion, what Xu Sanduo lacks the most is the focus effect.
He is too low-key and underestimated himself, and never wants to be the focus of everyone's attention.
His personality flaws cannot be changed in a short while.
You can only rely on himself to understand it bit by bit through the tempering of reality.
...
When the car arrived at the regiment headquarters, the sentry on duty at the door naturally stopped the car.
After checking the ID, the sentry signaled that the car could leave.
Xu Sanduo did not go in with Su Qiuyue.
He got out of the car and smiled at Su Qiyue, "July, go and do your business, I won't disturb you anymore!"
Su Qiyue thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll leave first."
"By the way, you can stay in the regiment headquarters for one night. Chengcai and others will come to maintain the chariot tomorrow."
