Chapter 254: Chatting in the Cafeteria
That night, just as Commander Gu had promised when they left, the canteen chef was arranged early to prepare a delicious meal for them.
However, when Commander Gu and the Political Commissar saw them at the cafeteria gate, they couldn’t believe how they had gotten through the past week.
Their clothes and pants were full of holes and covered in mud. Some of them had more or less mud on their hair and faces. They looked like they had just been released from a fenced yard.
"Report to the commander and political commissar, the independent regiment's one-week field training has ended. Please review it, commander." Huo Haocheng, who came up from behind, was a little neater than them. His clothes were not torn, but there was mud on them. They appeared in front of the commander and others like this, and they didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Forget about the review. We are all hungry. The food is ready. Let's go in and eat. After dinner, go back and have a good rest. If there is anything else, we will talk about it tomorrow."
After hearing what the commander said, Huo Haocheng didn't say anything else. He just wanted to eat quickly and wash himself clean so that he could go back to see his wife.
"Have a meal"
"Oh oh oh..." Hearing the words "eat" from Huo Haocheng, they immediately walked into the cafeteria in an orderly manner, but as soon as they stepped into the cafeteria door, they ran to the window one by one.
"Haha, these bastards, that's enough, you go and eat too, we'll go back first, thank you for your hard work!" Commander Gu patted Huo Haocheng on the shoulder and walked towards the family compound with the political commissar with satisfaction.
They were very pleased that the soldiers under their command could achieve what they have today, and they were also very pleased that Huo Haocheng was theirs.
After watching the two leaders leave, Huo Haocheng went in to get his meal.
"Haocheng, this way." As soon as he walked in, Gu Jinghe waved to him and asked him to come over.
Just now, when Gu Jinghe and the others were getting their meals, they saw that he was still talking to the commander and the others, so they got his share as well. Now he just had to go and eat.
Everyone was very hungry at the moment. These days, they had been eating wild grass in the mountains as wild vegetables had not yet grown. Apart from hunted animals, the only things they could eat were wild grass. However, whether it was wild grass or game, they were all just roasted over the fire and had no taste at all. Now, they finally had a bite of tasty food and they ate it with relish.
Huo Haocheng had just finished eating half of his meal when Ruan Shaolin quickly finished eating and prepared to get up and leave quickly.
People around him didn't quite understand what he was doing, but Ruan Shaoke and Bo Sirui understood, and Huo Haocheng, who was watching him, understood even better.
Seeing that he was about to leave, he slowly asked, "Are you done eating?"
“....Um, ah? Oh, that, I, I’m done eating, you guys take your time eating.” Faced with Huo Haocheng’s question, he didn’t know how to answer for a moment and could only laugh it off.
At this moment, Ruan Shaolin wanted to escape, but he felt like he was caught. He was really in a state of social despair. Couldn't he just pretend that he didn't see him?
"After eating, go back early and write the 3000-word summary." Huo Haocheng also felt that his expression at this time was really funny, but as the captain, he must not laugh at such a serious moment.
"...Ah, no, wait, what 3000 words, didn't you say 2000 words?" When Ruan Shaolin heard 3000 words, his original intention of running away disappeared all of a sudden. He immediately put down the lunch box in his hand and asked Huo Haocheng in disbelief. He remembered that he said 2000 words at the beginning, so how come it became 3000 words now?
"Yes, you also said it was at the beginning, but later you felt that 2000 words were too few, so you increased it to 3000 words? Why, now you feel that 3000 words are too few, and you plan to write 4000 words?"
Facing Ruan Shaolin's question, Huo Haocheng spoke calmly, as if to say, "If you say so, then it's 4000 words."
".....That's impossible... Well..." Just when Ruan Shaolin was about to argue, Ruan Shaoke stepped forward, covered his mouth, and dragged him out.
He had already been punished to write a 3000-word summary because of this idiot. If he were asked to explain the reason for their punishment in public, he would really be too embarrassed to stay in the independent regiment.
Sometimes, he also wondered that every child in their family was very smart. Even the youngest, Ruan Shiya, usually looked like a clever little girl. But when she came to Ruan Shaolin, it was as if she was born by mistake, and her IQ fluctuated.
"What happened to them?" Gu Jinghe and his companions, who didn't understand what was going on, looked at the two brothers going out in such a strange way, all with a puzzled look on their faces.
"It's nothing. I've finished eating too. I'll go back and wash up first. You guys take your time eating." After saying that, he stood up, packed up their lunch boxes and took them to wash.
"I really don't understand." Seeing the three of them leave like this, Ge Xiaotian also said that he didn't understand, then looked at Huo Haocheng and asked, "By the way, Captain, what did you just say about the 3000-word summary? Do we have to write this?"
Huo Haocheng looked at Ge Xiaotian, thought for a moment and said, "Logically speaking, only the three of them should write, but if you want to write, that's fine too."
If he had known earlier, he would not have punished the three of them to write a summary. Now, he thinks they can write a summary, but since it is already a punishment, it is not a good idea to ask them to write it again. Oh, I miscalculated.
"... Uh, Captain, we really don't want to do this, ha, right? What do you think?" Ge Xiaotian felt so regretful. Why did he say so much? What was there to be curious about? He looked at the others, hoping they would help him speak up.
"That's right, captain. Since you have already asked the deputy captain and others to write, we don't need to do it. We can just take a look at theirs when the time comes. I'm sure what the deputy captain writes will be very thorough." Su Yanqiu could see that this summary was Huo Haocheng's punishment for them. But now that Ge Xiaotian mentioned it, he thought it would be better for them to all write. But he was more curious about why the three of them were punished. Ruan Shaoke was the most stable among them, and he didn't expect that he would be punished one day!
Seeing them like this, Huo Haocheng did not embarrass them. "Well, when the time comes, you can ask the deputy captain and his team to read out their summary in front of everyone. I'll leave this matter to you to talk to them. Okay, we're all tired. Let's finish eating and go back to rest."
They were all a group of people who liked to watch the fun and didn't mind getting involved. In that case, he would oblige them and quickly finished the lunch in the box. Huo Haocheng stood up amid their shock, gave them a smile, took his things and went home.
The people behind him looked at his back, then looked at each other. "What did the captain say just now? Did you hear it clearly?"
"No, I didn't hear it." Gu Jinghe didn't care whether he had finished the food in the lunch box or not. He picked up the box and his things and fled from the cafeteria. It was getting late now, and he planned to go back to his parents' house to spend the night. As for why he didn't go back to his own home, it was because, ever since Dr. Jiang became pregnant, in order to take care of Dr. Jiang's health, the couple had been living in his mother-in-law's house. They didn't know how dusty their own home was.
With Gu Jinghe taking the lead, the others also said that they didn't hear anything, or could not hear anything at all, and then they took their things and left the cafeteria.
Of course, Huo Haocheng said this just to scare them. As it concerns the reputation of his nephews, he can't really let them recite it in front of everyone.
