Doing It Over Again - Chapter 28

In the last two days of military training, the phalanx review seems to have become a reserved item for students in military training.

Shen Shao and the others didn’t seem to have a particularly good luck, because it started to rain on the day of the phalanx inspection, which made the grass wet and slippery. It’s a good way to go.

Everyone arranged the square in the order of appearance. Shen Shao and Yao Boxuan stood at the front of the team, surrounded by students in camouflage uniforms. Shen Shao pulled the brim of his hat, trying to make his face less washed by the rain, but it seemed to be in vain, when he saw Yao Boxuan standing with his back straight from the beginning to the end, he hit him with his elbow: “You said , when will the review start?” When I usually train, I look forward to the rain so that I can avoid training, and the sun will always shine brightly, but today it is raining when it is best not to rain.

Yao Boxuan glanced at him, looked away and said, “How do I know?”

Shen Shao glanced at Yao Boxuan inexplicably, when did he offend this?

“The front phalanx review has begun.”

Hearing such a sentence next to him, Shen Shao looked in the direction of the reviewing stand. It was already full of people, but some were wearing camouflage uniforms and some were wearing suits, not all people from the military region.

“Students are all ready,” Shen Shao and the other instructors came over, raised their hands and said, “You must pay special attention to the place where you are going to turn, so as not to disperse the formation. Also, keep your eyes on the side. For those who are not good at walking, don’t turn the straight line into a wavy line. When passing the reviewing stand, you must walk neatly. Pay attention to the slogans of the two pacesetters in front. Yet?”

“Remember!” Wulian’s classmates answered in a loud voice.

“Very good. When you go to the phalanx, you have to show this kind of momentum. If you go wrong, we will gather again tonight in an emergency. Of course, if you like to practice squatting, you can do it.”

The classmates suddenly let out a wailing sound, the punishment of squatting is simply torture to the body, and they will not be able to look directly at the word squatting correctly in the future. And if there is an emergency assembly at night, they won’t have a good night’s sleep.

Very satisfied with the wailing of the classmates, the instructor faked a cough and said, “If you don’t want to be punished, you must perform well and strive to win glory for our five consecutive years!”

Shen Shao heard the excited response from the classmates behind him, and lowered his head silently. It’s so good to be young, and such a simple sentence can make his blood boil.

“Five companies are ready!”

After this reminder, all the students in Wulian became nervous. Shen Shao also sorted out his hat, pulled the hem of his camouflage uniform, and assumed a standard standing posture.

“No progress!”

“Let’s go!”

When he was very close to the reviewing stand, Shen Shao said loudly: “Look to the right!”

The sound of stepping on the ground was very neat. Shen Shao could hear the sound of these footsteps being imposing and heroic, and even the muddy water splashed on the trouser legs and could not feel it. He walked past the reviewing stand in a saluting posture, and after walking a few meters away from the reviewing stand, he said loudly, “Let’s go together.”

When they came down, the instructor came over with satisfaction, and reached out and patted Shen Shao on the shoulder: “The boy’s voice is quite loud.”

The training ground is so big, and the pacesetters in the front have to make the slogans clear to those behind, and the voices are not loud enough.

Shen Shao smiled and said: “Instructor, then we won’t even be punished this time. We worked so hard today, and it would be inhumane to gather together again at night.”

The other students behind him also booed, and the instructor folded his arms and laughed for a while before saying, “Okay, we won’t be gathering urgently tonight, and the training will be lighter tomorrow.”

Anyway, these students will leave the barracks the day after tomorrow, and they don’t want to make everyone unhappy, not to mention that these people are top students of Huada University, and they are the future of the motherland. They can’t really toss people beyond their physical load. .

In the corner of the reviewing stand, Gu Ningzhao stood up from the stool, whispered a word to Gu Chongzhen, and hurried off the stage.

Gu Chongzhen looked at his son’s back and saw him walking towards the phalanx at the end of the review. He sighed helplessly to the eldest brother next to him: “This child is going to live in school for a year, I’m really worried about his reticent personality. …”

Gu Chongyan was employed in the military camp, and he was usually a taciturn personality, so he didn’t think there was a big problem with Gu Ningzhao’s reticent personality: “I don’t think there is any problem with his personality, you go to compare several other aristocratic family sons in the capital, and then take a look. Look at these few in our family, and you will be content.”

There were other people next to him, Gu Chongzhen didn’t say much, just shook his head: “Ning Zhao, he doesn’t know why he doesn’t like to talk.”

“I think you are thinking too much. When he has more contact with him and finds someone who agrees with him, there will be no problem.” Gu Chongyan felt that his younger brother had developed a problem of thinking too much because of business, Ning Zhao This child is so smart and is particularly good at numbers. He must be a business genius in the future. I don’t know what her brother has to worry about.

Gu Chongzhen smiled bitterly and had to be silent.

“Shen Shao, we’ll let you eat an extra piece of meat for lunch today!” Qian Bin and several other classmates surrounded Shen Shao in the middle, and said in a joking tone, “You saved us from suffering.”

“How can it be so exaggerated, you don’t know, I was walking in front just now, and I heard the momentum of your righteous steps, that’s really it,” Shen Shao gave a thumbs up, “so the instructor sees that we are all doing well, then we are big Have mercy.”

“Hey, then it’s up to you to be loyal enough to dare to tell the instructor that we won’t be punished, and let us reduce the amount of training tomorrow,” Qian Bin stretched his arms and wrapped Shen Shao’s shoulders, “Wait a minute. We’ll give you the fattest piece of meat.”

“How can one piece be enough, at least two pieces will do.”

Yao Boxuan stood beside him, looking at Shen Shao who was surrounded by other classmates. Among these classmates, there were even his roommates during military training. They would rather joke with Shen Shao than get close to him in the same dormitory. What did they mean?

He felt that these roars were a bit harsh, and when he was about to take a few steps to the side, he heard Shen Shao mention him.

“Hey, Yao Boxuan is also a great hero this time, let him give the fattest piece of meat at noon, I can’t eat it.” Shen Shao broke through the crowd and put his hand on Yao Boxuan’s shoulder, “Dude, I’ll give this beautiful job to him. You are.”

The classmates were in a state of excitement, so they didn’t care who the target of the joke was, and a few more cheerful classmates reached out and pulled Yao Boxuan, and then said, “Don’t listen to him, this time the fat must have him. eat.”

Because of the concept of cherishing food, the instructor asked all students not to have leftovers, so the cube-shaped fat in the dish is a pain in everyone’s heart. corners not seen.

“Well, Shen Shao looks a little thin, eating more meat is good for the body,” Yao Boxuan was stunned, then said with a smile.

“I’m going, what about the most basic trust between people?” Shen Shao pretended to be mournful and sighed, “I feel that my heart hurts.”

Then came a new round of teasing from the classmates.

Yao Boxuan looked around at the classmates who were joking with him, trying to show a bit of indifference, but in the end he was dragged into the water by everyone in vain.

Although there were a lot of people wearing the same camouflage uniforms and hats, Gu Ningzhao quickly found Shen Shao in the crowd. He looked at Shen Shao who was surrounded by a group of classmates, and watched these people hook up with Shen Shao. Laughing happily, the originally slow pace turned into a fast one.

“Shen Shao!”

Hearing someone calling him, Shen Shao turned back curiously, and saw Gu Ningzhao wearing a white body jacket and jeans standing not far away, the peaked cap on his head had been wet by the rain, not to mention the pair of muddy white sports shoe. Among the classmates full of camouflage uniforms, Gu Ningzhao stood out.

The other classmates also looked at Gu Ningzhao who suddenly appeared in surprise. It wasn’t that they made a fuss. It was because they looked at the camouflage uniform for a long time, and suddenly a boy wearing a daily clothes appeared.

Didn’t you hear that someone in the square of girls standing beside them started screaming, in this case, the handsome guy with seven points has become very handsome.

Seeing that Shen Shao saw himself, Gu Ningzhao walked quickly to Shen Shao without looking at the other students, and said straightly, “You were handsome just now.”

Shen Shao raised his eyebrows in confusion, just now?

“It’s time to walk straight,” Gu Ningzhao added, “I was sitting on the stage and I recognized you at a glance.”

When the other students heard this, they looked at each other in dismay. Which noble son is this, who can sit on the stage and watch the square performance?

Someone had already recognized Gu Ningzhao, and the person beside him said in surprise, “Isn’t that Gu Ningzhao, how did he know Shen Shao?”

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, everyone has been together for more than ten days, and they all know that Shen Shao is from Guoshi, how could he know Gu Ningzhao who lives in the capital?

Could it be that Shen Shao is also a low-key son of a noble family, but he didn’t show it at ordinary times? Thinking about it carefully, Shen Shao usually behaves very well and knows a lot of things. It really doesn’t look like a child from a family who has never seen the world. As soon as this idea came out, the more everyone looked at it, the more and more people felt that Shen Shao was really the son of an aristocratic family, otherwise how could he join forces with someone like Gu Ningzhao?

Shen Shao didn’t know what his classmates were thinking about. He walked to the side with Gu Ningzhao and said, “Now the rain is getting heavier and heavier. We will go back to the company later. Why did you come here?”

“My family has a cooperation project with the school, so I was invited to watch the performance of the freshman party. I just saw you, so I came to say hello to you,” Gu Ningzhao said with a stern face, “I’ll go back later.”

Shen Shao looked at the distance between the reviewing stand and himself, the greeting was really far away. When he saw Gu Ningzhao’s face as if I was passing by, he smiled and said, “Thank you for coming to see me. I will return to school the day after tomorrow. Will you be in the dormitory then?”

Gu Ningzhao twisted his head uncomfortably: “Maybe.”

Shen Shao’s smile became more obvious. If he was really only seventeen years old now, he might not be able to tell whether what Gu Ningzhao said was true or false, but after living his whole life, how could he not see that Gu Ningzhao didn’t like to talk or not? The kind of person who knows how to get along with others, he put his hand on Gu Ningzhao’s shoulder, “Dude, you are loyal enough to make a special trip to see the suffering brother.”

Being held by Shen Shao, Gu Ningzhao’s face became even more stiff. He took out a few wrapped chocolates from his trousers pocket and stuffed them into Shen Shao’s trousers pocket: “I heard that you might not be full during military training, so take this. , don’t give it to others.” He glanced around and felt that no instructor noticed his movements, then took a step back, not letting Shen Shao take his shoulders, “I’m going back.”

Shen Shao watched Gu Ningzhao pass through a group of classmates in camouflage uniforms unhurriedly, touched his trouser pocket, and smiled helplessly. Is this because he was afraid that the instructor would see it being confiscated, so he secretly stuffed it into his trouser pocket?

After returning to the dormitory, Shen Shao put the chocolates that Gu Ningzhao gave him in the suitcase. It was not because he was stingy, but because the chocolates were not enough for everyone to share, so it would be better to put them aside and not eat them.

Thinking like this, Shen Shao dug out a packet of biscuits that he had secretly hidden before and distributed it to everyone, and then buttoned his suitcase with peace of mind.

“Did you go to find a classmate just now?” Gu Chongzhen looked at his son who had already changed into a set of clothes, wondering what his son was thinking, “A friend who has a good relationship can invite him to our house, and our whole family will warmly welcome him. welcome him.”

In recent years, because their son’s grades are so excellent, they often do not want to force him if he doesn’t go to school. They have never seen him play with anyone of his age. Now they are finally willing to take the initiative to befriend a classmate. They are only happy. when.

“It’s a roommate,” Gu Ningzhao was in a good mood, and when he talked to Gu Chongzhen, he also brought some cheerfulness, “He is the champion of the province, and he knows the piano and calligraphy.”

“Is he good?” It was rare to see his son like this, so Gu Chongzhen continued to chat along his words.

“Very good,” Gu Ningzhao lowered his head and looked at his hand on his knee, “It’s always been fine.”

Gu Chongzhi reached out and touched his head: “We will not interfere with your friendship, and we believe in your eyesight.”

Ning Zhao was an overly intelligent child, but because of his over-intelligence, he was reluctant to communicate with others. Usually, he was willing to open his mouth when facing his family.

Sometimes they would rather their child be an ordinary person and do not need so many honors. As a parent, all they want is for their child to live a happy life and nothing else.

Gu Ningzhao looked at Gu Chongzhi with some undisguised brilliance in his eyes: “Will you also like him?”

Gu Chongzhen looked at him like this, and touched his head again with a smile: “As long as the other person’s character is fine, we will like what you like.”

Gu Ningzhao nodded thoughtfully, lowered his head after thinking for a long time, and added a sentence.

“There will be no problem with his character, you must like him.”
