Early the next morning, Bai Xinyu and Cheng Wangwang gathered downstairs. Chen Jing and Yu Fengcheng had already stood at the door, and the military pickup was already waiting for them.
Yu Fengcheng looked at it from afar, with a smile that was not a smile, with a smug look on his face.
Bai Xinyu gave him a hard look, "Did you bring the things I asked you to bring?"
Yu Fengcheng raised his eyebrows, "What attitude?"
Bai Xinyu immediately softened in a timely manner, "Brother, can you give me back my mobile phone for a while, if there is a signal in the town, I can also send a photo to my mother."
Yu Fengcheng took out his fruit machine from his pocket and threw it to him, "For now, return it to me when you're done."
Bai Xinyu gritted his teeth, "This is my phone, right?"
Yu Fengcheng smiled and said, "No one said otherwise."
Bai Xinyu glared at him, quickly put the phone in his pocket, and ran to Chen Jing, "Squad leader, I didn't expect you to go too, what a coincidence."
"Well, there are a lot of people celebrating birthdays in the class, I want to buy a decent cake and presents or something."
Bai Xinyu glanced at Yu Fengcheng, "Why... why did you take him?"
Chen Jing didn't understand, so, "It was Fengcheng's proposal, otherwise I wouldn't have known that you were going to the town. The army would never send a car for us to buy birthday gifts alone, so we would hitch a ride."
Yu Fengcheng said with a smile: "Xin Yu told me."
Bai Xinyu wished he could slap himself twice to make you talk too much! Let you talk too much!
Cheng Wangwang smiled and said, "Squad leader, what good things are you going to buy?"
Chen Jing said, "Come on, get in the car and talk."
The four got into the car, and the pickup drove out of the camp.
Cheng Wangwang was bragging with the driver in the front seat, and the other three sat in the back seat. Chen Jing sat in the middle, and Bai Xinyu leaned on the back of the chair. From time to time, he glanced at Yu Fengcheng over the back of Chen Jing's head. How to deal with it.
Chen Jing asked how Bai Xinyu was doing recently, whether he had trained well, and Bai Xinyu chatted with Chen Jing.
After the car drove out of the camp, there was a section of the road that was very rough. Bai Xinyu asked Cheng Wangwang how long it would take to get to the town, and Cheng Wangwang said nonchalantly, "Maximum five or six hours."
"Huh? You say it again?"
Cheng Wangwang turned his head, "Do you know how big Xinjiang is?"
Bai Xinyu shook his head stupidly, "How old is it?"
Cheng Wangwang snorted, "I don't know, it's very big anyway, and our military area is far away from the town, so five or six hours is not far away."
"That's one day back and forth, can you come back today?"
"So don't come back tonight. If you live in the town, you won't be able to sell all your stuff in one day."
Bai Xinyu's eyes lit up, "Wow, that's great, I won't be coming back tonight."
Chen Jing glanced at him, "Why are you so excited?"
Bai Xinyu rubbed his hands together, "I haven't been outside for a long time. It's been like being in prison for half a year. Can you not be excited to finally be able to go outside?"
Chen Jing patted the back of his head, "How do you talk, why go to jail."
Bai Xinyu laughed, and patted Cheng Wangwang's shoulder from the back seat, "Brother Wangwang, you are so kind!"
Cheng Wangwang smiled and said, "Why don't so many people want to come, please thank me."
Bai Xinyu grinned from ear to ear, "Hey, what is there to do in town? Is there... is there a bar, is there that..."
Chen Jing glared at him, "The bar? Where else do you want to go? Do you know what you are here for? You are wearing this outfit, and you must not go in and out of any entertainment venues casually, do you understand?"
Bai Xinyu looked at the military uniform on his body, and immediately froze, "Squad leader, I'll just talk casually."
Chen Jing pointed at him, "Your boy is dishonest, Fengcheng, you should keep an eye on him when you get to town."
Yu Fengcheng smiled and said, "No problem, I'm definitely watching it."
Bai Xinyu couldn't listen anymore, he was full of expectations for the town, he thought to himself, even if Chen Jing didn't let him go, with his feet growing on him, he could secretly throw it out to play at night, and he didn't know the town Is there any fun, is there any beautiful women, is there any good wine... Bai Xinyu has completely fallen into his own fantasy, he feels that he will soon return to human society.
After sitting in that pickup truck for three hours, although Bai Xinyu didn't get motion sickness, he still felt a little uncomfortable when he was shaking like this, and he didn't have the mood to chat. The three people in the back row all leaned on the seats and closed their eyes to rest. Only Cheng Wangwang was afraid of driving. The staff was sleepy and chatted endlessly.
Bai Xinyu lay down for a while, but couldn't fall asleep, and sighed, "This broken road is going to fall apart."
Yu Fengcheng stretched out his hand and pinched his ear, Bai Xinyu was startled, and immediately opened his eyes, "What are you doing?" Then he felt something pressed behind his ear, and he stretched out his hand to touch it, like a motion sickness sticker.
Yu Fengcheng gave him a sideways look, "Don't spit in the car."
Bai Xinyu snorted, "I'm a man who can go in and out of the pigsty, how could I vomit because of motion sickness?"
Yu Fengcheng sneered, "You're quite proud."
Bai Xinyu said awkwardly, "There's nothing to be proud of either."
Chen Jing smiled slightly, "I heard that your cooking team bought more than ten pigs?"
Bai Xinyu rolled his eyes, "Well, I'm in charge of feeding."
Chen Jing suppressed a smile, "That's right, it's a good thing to learn more skills."
Bai Xinyu could only swallow his resentment in his stomach. He made up his mind that he must practice shooting well and make Xu Chuang look at him differently in the army competition. If he really feeds pigs in the army for two years, he feels that he will definitely It's over.
After wandering in the car for more than five hours, they didn't even eat lunch, and finally arrived in town around two o'clock in the afternoon.
Bai Xinyu got out of the car and looked at the "town" in front of him, his feet went limp. How should I put it, it seems to be an enlarged farmer's market. At least at a glance, he can see that there are shops on both sides of the street, and small stalls in front of the shops, selling everything. Looking around, the tallest building in this town seems It is only six or seven stories high. The cars on the street are mainly tricycles and motorcycles. There are few cars. There are no traffic lights in the whole town, and there is a simple and backward atmosphere everywhere.
There are obviously more Uyghurs here than Hans. You can see old Uyghurs selling things everywhere on the street, and the town is very lively.
Cheng Wangwang introduced: "The busiest time in this market is in the morning. We arrived at this time. In fact, many of the stalls have been closed. It is crowded in the morning."
The corners of Bai Xinyu's mouth twitched, "Ah... this is..." Is this the town he's been looking forward to for a long time? He wants to cry but has no tears.
Yu Fengcheng hooked his shoulders, bent down, and whispered in his ear, "What kind of town do you imagine? Lush and feasting? Bars and nightclubs everywhere? Be good, take a flight back to Beijing."
Bai Xinyu pushed him away, and said righteously: "I'm here to shop, not to play."
Yu Fengcheng pinched his chin, "Well said."
Bai Xinyu no longer had any reverie. He took out his mobile phone and said pleasantly: "Oh, there is a signal, that's great!" He began to take pictures around.
Chen Jing called him from afar: "Xin Yu, let's go."
After Bai Xinyu finished taking pictures, he ran over, "Come on, monitor, take a picture for me, I want a full body."
Chen Jing took the phone, "There's nothing to take pictures of here either."
Bai Xinyu looked around at the aunts who were shopping for vegetables, the gray buildings and dilapidated streets of the uncle who sold vegetables, and thought that taking this photo and sending it to his mother would win a lot of sympathy. Let's take a picture, do you think I have a thinner face with a hat or without a hat?"
Chen Jing frowned and said, "Anything is fine."
"It doesn't matter, you put the bottom of the photo frame against my feet, so that it looks taller..." Bai Xinyu blew a kiss.
Chen Jing pressed the shutter.
"Squad leader, take a few more pictures." Bai Xinyu then took several poses that he thought were cool and handsome, but it wasn't enough, Yu Fengcheng suddenly rushed into the camera and put his arms around his shoulders.
Bai Xinyu turned to look at him, "What are you doing! I sent it to my mother, it would be bad to have a misunderstanding."
Yu Fengcheng looked at him with a smile, "What misunderstanding happened?"
Bai Xinyu was speechless for a while, and pushed him hard, "Go away, you will make me look short by standing next to me."
But Yu Fengcheng hugged him tightly, and said loudly: "Squad leader, take some pictures for us."
Chen Jing dutifully pressed the shutter repeatedly, taking pictures of the two people pushing and shoving.
After taking the photos, Bai Xinyu took the phone and picked them up one by one, "Well, this one is handsome, this one is handsome."
Yu Fengcheng came over and looked at himself in the photo, "It's a good photo."
"What's the matter with you, I'll delete you in a while."
"Don't you dare, don't forget that your mobile phone is now in my custody. If you dare to delete my photos, I will send your little movie to your mother."
"Damn it, you're so wicked!" Bai Xinyu scolded.
Yu Fengcheng snorted, "Send our photos to your mother, just tell me... Forget it, I'll give it to you!" He snatched the phone, opened WeChat skillfully, and sent the photos one by one, letting Bai Xinyu grab it. Also motionless.
"Damn, what did you say?"
After Yu Fengcheng finished sending, he returned the phone to him, smiling with satisfaction.
Bai Xinyu took it over and took a look. Yu Fengcheng sent only photos of the two of them together, and he left a message to his mother: Mom, this is Yu Fengcheng, my best friend in the army. He is very powerful and takes good care of me.
Bai Xinyu almost vomited blood, his finger pointing at Yu Fengcheng's nose trembled, "Can you show some face!"
Yu Fengcheng grinned, "When the children are away, they must learn to report good news and not bad ones, can you be more sensible?"
"Why am I so ignorant? I was just about to tell my mother that I have six-pack abs and look more masculine than before. She is my mother, mine! Why do you talk to her!" Bai Xinyu scratched Picking up the phone, he turned and ran away.
Chen Jing first took them to the military district guest house in the town to register for two rooms. They had lunch in the restaurant of the guest house and then went out to do some shopping.
Wu Qing gave them a very long purchase list. Although the logistics department sent supplies to the troops three times a week, some special ingredients could only be bought from the local Xinjiang people. Bai Xinyu also saw it There are many things that have never been seen before, such as food, play, and use. Everything is new and interesting. He brought the cash from home, and finally found a place to spend it, just to see what to buy, and after a while, he had already carried a bunch of big bags and small bags before he bought much.
Chen Jing sighed, "Why do you buy so many things, you can eat them?"
Bai Xinyu laughed and said: "Go back and share with my comrades, Dong Yuan and Qian Liang, they know I'm coming to town, they're so envious, I have to bring them gifts."
Cheng Wangwang grabbed cumin from a street stall, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it, "Tsk tsk, this taste is authentic."
Bai Xinyu's nose has been smothered by the smell of condiments all over the street. The Uighur uncle who sells the condiments saw that they were wearing military uniforms and smiled very enthusiastically. He took a big iron scale and wanted to weigh them. Caught two.
Standing next to the uncle was a Uighur girl with a high nose bridge, red lips, deep and bright eyes, and curly and curled eyelashes just like Batur's. Xinyu could just smile at other girls. The Uyghur girl was so bold that she didn't shy away from it, so she just smiled at him. Her eyelashes were flickering, which made Bai Xinyu's heart itch. He wanted to ask for a phone call. Woolen cloth? But I can't get in touch... Just as I was dreaming, someone slapped the back of my head hard.
He yelled "Ouch", and looked back, Yu Fengcheng was staring at him condescendingly, and said with his mouth: You are looking for death.
Bai Xinyu didn't want to lose his position in front of the girl, so he also glared at him fiercely, "What are you doing!"
The girl chuckled and hid away.
Yu Fengcheng dragged Bai Xinyu to his back and blocked him with his broad back, just to prevent him from looking at the Uighur girl. He squeezed his neck like a cat, "You don't want to die, do you? She winks at the unmarried girl. If she really likes you, you just wait to be a door-to-door son-in-law and stay here for the rest of your life." .”
Bai Xinyu glared at him, "What are you talking about, I'm going to marry her just by looking at her?"
Yu Fengcheng nodded his head, coaxing and intimidating, "This is the local custom, if you take a closer look, she will find several brothers and younger brothers in a while, and take you home. Want to go."
Bai Xinyu was dubious, "Really, really?"
"If you don't believe me, go talk to her."
Bai Xinyu shrank his neck, and he couldn't tell whether Yu Fengcheng was threatening him or telling the truth, anyway, it didn't seem worth taking the risk.
Yu Fengcheng tugged at his ear, "Listen well, you are not allowed to look at any Uighur women, and you are not allowed to talk to them, if something really happens, no one will care about you."
Bai Xinyu was really frightened, he had heard about the strange customs of various ethnic groups before, maybe what Yu Fengcheng said was true, with the mentality that he would rather believe it, Bai Xinyu nodded timidly.
Yu Fengcheng showed a triumphant smile.
Chen Jing and Cheng Wangwang walked over with their things, "What are you two doing, come and get your things."
The four shopped all afternoon, and the sun was setting. They loaded everything that could be loaded into the car and started looking for dinner.
Cheng Wangwang took them to a restaurant near the train station in the town. The restaurant looked a bit dilapidated, but it was bustling with people. The noodles are a must in the local area, um, smell the aroma of roasted naan? Oh, I’m so hungry.” He rubbed his hands vigorously, “Every time I come here, I want to steal two hands back, but even the locals in our class I can’t even make this taste, so just drink two catties of white wine with roast mutton, and the taste is complete!”
In the past, Bai Xinyu would not have stepped into this kind of dirty-looking small restaurant, but the experience of more than half a year had completely sublimated him. The smell of roasted whole lamb made him drool so greedy that he hurried over. A Uighur aunt with a big waist led them into the restaurant and stuffed them in the corner table.
Bai Xinyu waved his hand and snapped his fingers handsomely, "Give me the menu."
Big Mom tilted her neck and looked at him.
Cheng Wangwang patted his hand off, "There's a fart menu, I'll order it, you guys sit down."
Bai Xinyu took out his phone again, and was excited to find that his mother had finally sent him a message back. He opened it: Xinyu, why have you been hacked so much? Where are you? The person next to you is Yu Fengcheng. The child is so tall and handsome.
Bai Xinyu hurriedly wrote back to his mother: Mom, I came to the town to buy things, this place is too dilapidated, I don't think it is as advanced as our camp, Mom, I miss you so much.
Li Weizhi sent him a bunch of love symbols: Mom misses you too, look at you, I can hardly recognize you...
Bai Xinyu chatted with his mother sadly.
His mother sent him several photos, including his new hairstyle, his father's appearance of losing ten catties, and the new clothes she bought for Bai Xinyu.
The two talked for a long time, and Bai Xinyu asked: Mom, how is my brother? How is he recently
There was silence on the other side for a long time, and Bai Xinyu's heart sank. After a while, his mother sent a very long message: Xinyu, your brother is not very good. I gave your brother a hand, and now he is forcing your brother to sell the company's shares at a reserve price. Your father said that the company may not be able to keep it. Your brother is now hiding and seeing no one. I don't know what the plan is. Then, I don't know where he is, my mother is so worried about him.
Bai Xinyu's head buzzed, and his hands trembled suddenly. How could this be? How could his brother, who is so shrewd, so powerful, and so awesome, be overshadowed by Jian Suilin? He really couldn't imagine what would happen to his brother, who was so arrogant and arrogant, to be betrayed by two Brother betrayed, his brother... Bai Xinyu was so guilty that he could hardly breathe.
He walked out of the restaurant with his mobile phone and called his mother. His mother is very emotional, and she cried when she heard his voice. When she explained the matter in more detail, Bai Xinyu was so angry that Shaking, I wish I could go back and beat Jian Suilin to death right now. Although he was obsessed with ghosts at the time and did something wrong to his brother, he still regarded Jian Suiying as his own brother, and he really had feelings for him. To be honest, those three houses were not a big deal in his brother's eyes Son, what Jian Suilin is doing now is not at the same level as him, and it is irreversible.
Li Weizhi choked up and said, "Xin Yu, what do you think we should do now? Hey... I can't help you even if I ask you."
"Mom, don't worry, my brother is so powerful, he won't be knocked down by this, he will come out after a period of rest."
"Really?"
Bai Xinyu himself is not very sure, so he can only comfort himself, he really can't wait to go home now, this is the first time since he came to the army for so long, he wants to go home not for himself, but for his brother, he wants to go back Help his brother, even if it's just to beat Xiao Linzi to vent his anger, but he knows he can't do anything, maybe his brother will be even angrier seeing him.
After hanging up the phone, Bai Xinyu felt a little depressed. When he returned to the restaurant, everything they ordered was served, but he lost his appetite.
Yu Fengcheng pushed him, "What's wrong?"
Bai Xinyu shook his head, and said perfunctorily, "I'm homesick." He suddenly remembered something, "You've held my phone for so long, didn't you peek at what's inside?"
Yu Fengcheng raised his eyebrows, "What do you mean? Small movies? Text messages?"
Bai Xinyu stared at him, "What did you see?"
Yu Fengcheng snorted contemptuously, "I don't even want to see a bunch of fake breasts and fake faces."
"What do you know? At least half of them are true. I've seen so many women. I can't tell the real from the fake."
Yu Fengcheng narrowed his eyes, "You're so proud, you won't be able to see him anymore."
Bai Xinyu ignored him, thinking that when I go home one day, you can still control me
Chen Jing said: "What are you talking about? Xinyu, are you okay, why are you crying so sadly?"
Bai Xinyu asked: "Squad leader, do you think I can ask for leave to go home?"
"Leave? Do you want to go home?"
Bai Xinyu nodded, "Something happened at home, I want to go back and have a look."
Chen Jingdao: "Unless you are injured, or your immediate family members are critically ill or have passed away, you can apply for leave with a hospital certificate. Otherwise, leave of more than one week will basically not be approved. Even if you can, it will be very difficult."
As soon as Bai Xinyu heard this, he knew there was nothing to do. He couldn't tell such an ominous lie just to ask for leave.
Chen Jing said: "What happened to your family, is it serious?"
Bai Xinyu sighed: "It's my cousin... Forget it, I definitely can't approve it."
Cheng Wangwang chewed on the mutton, "You will have family leave in two years."
Bai Xinyu thought to himself, I won't be here in two years, so what kind of family leave is needed.
The four of them ate and drank a full stomach, and walked back to the guest house comfortably.
They drank two bottles of white wine, both of which were a little high, but still not drunk. Cheng Wangwang clamored to play poker, which got everyone's unanimous response. They bought two dozen beers and two packs of poker, returned to the guest house, and played cards behind closed doors.
At first, he said that the loser would drink, but later he found it boring. Cheng Wangwang, who was afraid of chaos, proposed to take off his clothes. The loser took off one piece, and the winner could wear another piece. Take a sip of beer.
Chen Jing is a very serious person, so he disagreed, Yu Fengcheng was beside him but smiled and said nothing, Bai Xinyu was an unscrupulous person, he played more in bars than this limitless person, after drinking too much Even more unscrupulous, he laughed and said yes, Chen Jing had no choice but to play with them.
