Movie Variety Show: Starting from a New World
Chapter 364: An Old Friend from the Frontier
In the evening, Ye Juan prepared four main dishes, all of which were famous snacks in Shanghai. Considering that Zhao Cheng and his son might eat a lot, Ye Juan made the dishes a bit large, and the staple food was steamed buns instead of cornmeal steamed buns.
Zhao Weijun ate and praised Ye Juan's cooking, saying that his father was so lucky because his third mother was beautiful and cooked delicious food.
Listening to his third brother talking more and more nonsense, Zhao Cheng was so angry that he hit him hard on the head, and finally Zhao Weijun calmed down and finished his meal.
Zhao Weijun's words made Ye Juan keep her head down and eat throughout the dinner. She did not answer or refuse Zhao Weijun's words. After the three of them finished their meal, Ye Juan immediately drove Zhao Cheng and his father back to their house. Then she sat on the kang with a blushing face, without even clearing away the dishes. It was not until very late that Ye Juan got up from the kang to clear away the dishes left by the three of them.
The next morning, Zhao Chenggong was picked up by a military vehicle and headed directly west.
The training base arranged by Uncle Wang this time is located in a Gobi Desert, far away from cities and rural areas. It is surrounded by mountains, Gobi Desert, deserts, and many small poplar forests. It is close to a plateau covered with ice and snow all year round.
Under such complex terrain conditions, Zhao Cheng was very worried about whether the officers and soldiers coming here for training could withstand the high-intensity training of the special forces brigade.
Zhao Cheng had to follow the training throughout and pay attention to the physical condition of the trainees. After a few days of adaptation, Zhao Cheng found that the physical fitness of these trainees was significantly better than that of the inland soldiers.
However, seeing that there were several faces of ethnic minorities among them, Zhao Cheng knew that these must be veterans who had been here for several years, and were not new recruits who had come from the inland for only three or two years.
After the first week of intensive physical training, after brutal elimination, less than half remained. Zhao Cheng had to admit that the soldiers in such a frontier region were truly suffering. The images, which would later only be seen on television, appeared before Zhao Cheng for the first time, making him even more dedicated to training these soldiers. He incorporated everything he knew and the training methods he had re-evaluated in recent years into this training session, and Zhao Cheng participated in the entire process.
Because Zhao Cheng discovered that in such a natural environment, his body, which had reached its limit a long time ago, actually began to slowly increase again!
This change made Zhao Cheng think that perhaps his body had not reached its true limit before, and this situation occurred because Zhao Cheng did not push his body hard enough.
The fact that Zhao Cheng followed the training throughout the whole process also made the trainees take the training more seriously. After all, the instructors personally followed the training, which definitely showed that they valued them!
After half a month of training in the first phase, Zhao Cheng gave the whole team a day off, and Zhao Cheng also returned to the city to check on the situation of his third child.
Zhao Cheng first went to Wang Kai's house and chatted with Wang Kai for a while, asking about the situation here, and then talked about his third son.
"Instructor, I have to say that your third child is really smart. I heard from their principal that your third child has started to teach himself all the junior high school courses, and he is doing very well. He also ranks among the top in the exams taken by senior grades! Now the whole city knows that there is a child prodigy in the middle school. He learns everything very quickly and has become the "other people's child" in the eyes of those parents!" Wang Kai said to Zhao Cheng with a smile.
"Alas, my third child is smart, but he never uses his skills in useful ways. He always causes troubles for you. This kid learns things quickly, but he is the best among all the children in my family at causing troubles!" Zhao Chengke is not as optimistic as Wang Kai.
In this era, being able to get high scores means being a good student, but getting high scores is indeed the most common thing for the children of the Zhao family. For Zhao Cheng's children, these rote memorization things are not difficult at all.
"You just don't know how to be satisfied. How can you strive to be the best in everything? Wouldn't that make the child exhausted?" Wang Kai curled his lips.
"Oh, Old Wang, you don't understand. Just remember, please keep an eye on this kid for me. You never know when this kid might cause trouble for you!" Zhao Cheng could only ask Wang Kai to help take care of him.
Then Zhao Cheng went to find Ye Juan again. For Zhao Cheng, if he wanted to understand his son's movements, he had to get the most comprehensive information from Ye Juan.
But this time, Zhao Cheng finally drank a bottle of white wine with Wang Kai, and then drank another bottle with Ye Juan. Before Zhao Cheng could do anything, Ye Juan got drunk first.
Zhao Cheng knew that Ye Juan had something on her mind, so he could only accompany her. Finally, Zhao Cheng carried Ye Juan back to the kang. When he was covering Ye Juan with a quilt, Ye Juan attacked him. Finally, an hour later, after Ye Juan woke up, Zhao Cheng knew the reason why Ye Juan did this.
It turned out that on the one hand, Zhao Weijun called "Third Mom" all day long at home, which made Ye Juan's affection for Zhao Cheng grow day by day. In addition, his mother at home wrote to Ye Juan and began to remind her that she must discuss with the Ye family before finding a partner and adopt a boy to inherit the Ye family's incense.
However, from what Ye Juan had heard during her daily conversations, she found out that no one was willing to do so. Boys were basically the treasures of each family, so how could they be given to someone else, even if they took the mother's surname?
The second piece of news surprised Zhao Cheng greatly. It turned out that, due to Zhao Cheng's intervention, Ye Juan didn't go to Shorbulak, but another graduate from the frontier region went instead. As a local, the female teacher felt the conditions there were a bit difficult, but since it wasn't far from home, she agreed.
But unexpectedly, something went wrong. The man who had once forced Ye Juan this time forced this local female teacher. Ye Juan originally chose to swallow her anger and eventually gave birth to a boy.
But this local girl reported this man to the police! The man was shot and executed, which became a big news in this border area.
When she heard the news, Ye Juan felt a surge of fear. If she had gone there, would she be the one being forced?
That's why Ye Juan took advantage of the alcohol today and gave it directly to Zhao Cheng, because she had thought it through. Since Zhao Weijun wanted her to be the third mother of the little rascal so much, then she would be the one! Anyway, she would get married in the future, so why not choose someone she likes?
"Alas, it's a pity that this is not the time to transfer you back!" Zhao Cheng felt a little sorry for Ye Juan.
"Brother Cheng, don't say that. I volunteered to get to this point today. You don't know how scared I was when I heard the news. The first person I thought of at that time was you! So I did all this voluntarily! Besides, the third guard is so young and there is no one to take care of him here. I can take care of him for a few years. After everything is on track, I will go back to Peiping with you when conditions permit!" Ye Juan lay on Zhao Cheng's chest, listening to Zhao Cheng's strong heartbeat, her face couldn't help but blush again.
In the evening, Zhao Cheng asked Zhao Weijun to officially change his words. From then on, the name Ye Juan's third mother was no longer a joke for Zhao Weijun.
After finishing his meal with his son, Zhao Cheng drove back to the training base overnight. His training would have a day off every two weeks, and Zhao Cheng would try to come back during that break.
In the following days, Zhao Cheng was training at the base, and Ye Juan really took on the responsibility of a third mother, and her management of Zhao Weijun gradually became stricter.
Zhao Weijun always felt that he was shooting himself in the foot. It used to be nothing, but now he is the legitimate third mother. How could Ye Juan still be polite to him?
Moreover, Ye Juan also asked Zhao Weijun to teach her the exercise methods that Zhao Cheng taught to the children, and trained with Zhao Weijun every day. On the one hand, it was to improve her physical fitness, and on the other hand, it was to enable herself to protect herself. After all, the border during this period was not very peaceful.
Just like that, a month passed and Zhao Cheng returned here again. This time, Zhao Cheng did not look for Wang Kai because he was stationed with the troops for training. Zhao Cheng could only drive directly to Ye Juan's courtyard.
It happened to be a day off, and Ye Juan was working out at home with Zhao Weijun. After a month of training, Ye Juan's physical fitness had improved significantly, and she had also gained a certain degree of self-protection ability.
After the family of three finished dinner, Zhao Cheng first examined Zhao Weijun's kung fu, and then examined Zhao Weijun's academic performance. He found that he had indeed made a lot of progress and was already among the top three in the grade in the junior high school entrance examination.
"Third son, tomorrow ask your mother to go to the school and ask if you can take the junior high school graduation exam to see if you can get into high school. If you can get a high school diploma, I will fulfill one of your conditions that is not too excessive!" Zhao Cheng looked at his third son with satisfaction and made a promise.
"Dad, it's settled. I'll have Third Mom go to the school and ask tomorrow!" Zhao Weijun said happily. He had even thought about what conditions he would propose to his father after receiving his high school diploma!
In the evening, Zhao Cheng spent another wonderful night with Ye Juan. Compared with the last time, this time Ye Juan finally understood why Zhao Cheng had three women. It was really one person who turned this originally happy event into a painful memory!
Zhao Cheng had to stop halfway because Ye Juan was really exhausted. In the end, he had no choice but to stop.
The next day after Zhao Cheng left, Zhao Weijun received a letter from the border area. At first, Zhao Weijun wondered who wrote to him from the border, but after reading the letter, Zhao Weijun was so happy that he almost jumped up, because he finally had someone to accompany him again, and he could find someone to play with during the holidays.
Because the letter was sent by none other than Zhou Bingyi, the eldest of the Zhou family, who was also working in the frontier! Although the purpose of Zhou Bingyi's letter was mainly to ask whether Zhao Weijun and Zhao Cheng were still in the frontier, Zhao Weijun was also very familiar with his brother Bingyi. Zhao Cheng had twice gone to the Northeast for material exchanges during the Spring Festival, and he had taken Zhao Weijun with him because he had nothing to do at home.
He didn't need to look after his younger siblings because he had his older brother and sister, and he didn't need to help with anything because Pingping was there. So when it was really boring to stay at home, he begged Zhao Cheng to take him to the Northeast, and he became familiar with Zhou Bingyi.
The news that Zhao Cheng brought Zhao Weijun to the border this time was told to Zhou Bingyi by Zhou Zhigang in a letter. Because Zhou Zhigang passed by Peking to find Zhao Cheng, he learned that Zhao Cheng had come to the border and that Zhao Cheng would probably stay there for at least three months.
So he wrote a letter to Zhou Bingyi, asking him to come and see his Uncle Zhao. After all, his Uncle Zhao had done them a favor, and one should not forget one's roots.
That's why Zhou Bingyi wrote to him. Zhao Weijun immediately wrote back to Zhou Bingyi, telling him that Zhao Cheng would come back about once every two weeks. He also told Zhou Bingyi that Zhao Cheng had just left today and would have to wait two weeks for his next return.
The distance between Zhou Bingyi's place in the countryside and where Zhao Weijun is staying is about 150 miles, which is not very convenient to travel back and forth. If Zhou Bingyi wants to see Zhao Cheng, he must plan in advance.
