Chapter 414 Forcing Whom? Bai Nuo!
Reading Settings
Bai Nuo had no idea that by receiving a package, she had turned a tough guy in the military region into a fragile heart, so heartbroken that he felt incredibly cold.
In fact, how could Grandpa Wei forget his most promising grandson? He just didn't expect the boy to come back from his mission so quickly. He had mentioned on the phone that he might be gone for four or five months. He was even thinking of sending the New Year's money to the boy when he wrote him a letter before the Lunar New Year.
Who would have thought...
My grandson broke prematurely!
After Bai Nuo and Fang Meng returned to the family compound, they unpacked the large package, which contained a lot of local mountain products, four dried rabbits, two preserved ducks, sausages made by Wei's eldest and second sisters-in-law, and sweaters knitted by Aunt Cui'e for the two of them.
Bai Nuo could tell from the design that it must have been drawn by Sun Yuxi and then woven by Aunt Cui'e. It was full of Hong Kong style from the 1980s, and only Sun Yuxi, who was reborn from the 1980s, could have drawn it.
The two of them opened the package and realized why it was so big. It contained not only things prepared for them by the Wei family, but also things prepared for them by their friends, mostly food.
Among them was a pair of cotton boots made for Bai Nuo by three sisters: Xuehua Jie, Chao Xianhua, and Sun Yuxi. The style was very similar to UGG boots from later generations. The inside and outside were made of rabbit fur, stitched together bit by bit. They were comfortable and warm to wear. The soles were made by Xie Weidong with the help of the village elders to create non-slip soles. There were also two fluffy pom-poms hanging at the ankles, making them cute and pretty.
Not only did Bai Nuo have a pair of light brown rabbit fur cotton boots, Fang Meng also had a pair of black ones, which were simpler than Bai Nuo's. The letter said that Xie Weidong and You Jin made them together, fearing that the two of them would be cold and hungry after returning to Beijing.
The letter also said that the two of them should take good care of themselves in Beijing and not to worry about the rest of them. It said that business at the factory was getting better and better. Last month, thanks to the director of Kaiyuan City Machinery Factory No. 1, they had reached cooperation agreements with textile factories and several large supply and marketing cooperatives in the city. The textile machines in the factory were almost smoking.
So they are not short of money or tickets now, and they have also received a lot of grain. Uncle Wei said that he plans to keep four pigs as New Year's pigs to distribute so that everyone can have a comfortable New Year.
They will remember what Bai Nuo told them before he left, and they will never forget to read books, no matter how busy they are with work. One day they will reunite in Beijing.
Looking at it this way, the living conditions of the brigade have really improved a lot, and the kids are now more willing to spend money freely.
Bai Nuo looked at the several sheets of paper filled with writing, smiled, and looked at Fang Meng. The same joy, longing, and relief were in their eyes.
Several friends in different places are working together, all are doing well, and look forward to reuniting.
The two of them tidied everything up together. There was a small room next to the kitchen, which was a place specifically for storing things, more like a storage room. However, before Bai Nuo came, Zhu Kaixuan rarely came back to stay here, so it was always empty. It was only after Bai Nuo came that Zhu Kaixuan saw that his daughter liked to cook at home and didn't like the canteen food, so he had the orderly bring back a lot of rice, flour, and cooking oil, which were all placed in the small room next to the kitchen.
Fang Meng and Bai Nuo put the mountain produce, cured meat and other food items in the small compartment. They divided the rest into two portions: one for Bai Nuo to keep and one for Fang Meng to take back to the dormitory.
After packing their things, it was already dark outside. They waited for a long time but Zhu Kaixuan did not return. Instead, they met the orderly Xiao Li and another guard named Ping Kai who had been following Bai Nuo.
"Nono, the commander, political commissar, chief of staff, and commander of the 39th Division have all been called to a meeting at the General Military Region Headquarters. They probably won't be back tonight. The commander told me to come back and tell you not to wait for him and to go to sleep early. He also said that he asked Deputy Regiment Commander Fang and Ping Kai to stay with you so you won't be scared at home alone."
In this way, a universally acknowledged future son-in-law of Commander Zhu and a bodyguard assigned by Commander Zhu would live together at home with the young lady, and outsiders wouldn't gossip about it.
"Okay, I understand. You can go find my dad without worry. By the way... has he eaten?" Bai Nuo stood at the door of the main room, not surprised at all by this result.
Given the current situation in China, it's no wonder that these leaders, who are so dedicated to the country, would never let a powerful, long-range, lightweight, and inexpensive assault rifle remain undeveloped overnight. They would definitely hold a meeting immediately and have the research institute verify the authenticity and completeness of the data.
We will definitely resolve everything as quickly as possible, finalize the production line, and begin mass production as soon as possible.
Since the Old Bear Kingdom, together with several other major powers, imposed a technological blockade on the Dragon Kingdom, the country's scientific and technological development has been progressing slowly. Researchers in every position have been working tirelessly and sparing no expense to conduct research and development and pursue technological advancements.
The border is rife with unrest, with frequent provocations that keep the local people living in constant fear, never knowing when a shell might fall from above.
They have fallen far behind and have been silent for far too long.
They desperately need a weapon to deter the enemies who are eyeing them closely and ready to pounce and take a piece of their flesh.
Even if it's just a small assault rifle, as long as the data is true, valid, and complete, they can use this small assault rifle to deter the enemy troops outside the border and give the border troops who are struggling to defend the border a breather.
So after communicating with Zhu Kaixuan by phone, the headquarters immediately ordered several leaders of the 28th Army to attend a meeting and to get the matter settled as quickly as possible.
Actually, they originally wanted Zhu Kaixuan to bring Bai Nuo along, since she was the most important person. Unfortunately, Zhu Kaixuan refused directly, making it clear that it was his daughter's attitude and that the Zhu family would provide unconditional support.
With no other option, the headquarters had to settle for sending Zhu Kaixuan over with the documents and an assault rifle.
It wasn't that no one wanted to issue a forced order, but unfortunately... before they could even speak, an old man from headquarters scolded them back, his voice incredibly loud and unpleasant.
Don't they even know whose daughter she is? Why are they issuing such orders? Aren't they afraid of attracting those old men and women to cause trouble for them?
Moreover, this girl clearly has an extremely high talent in weapons research and manufacturing, and may even be no less than her maternal grandfather, Master Bai. If she is angered, he might abandon her and then take responsibility.
As long as the mountains behind that girl don't fall, no one will dare to force her to do something she doesn't want to do.
Others may not know, but which of these elderly people doesn't know?
Fourth, Jiunan Garden. When the girl was little, she could enter just by scanning her face. Looking at the young people of this generation in the circle, how many children can have such an honor?
After returning to Beijing, they simply grew up and learned to be more low-key. In addition, they had to go to school and work, so they never showed their faces there. But that doesn't mean they can't get in.
Forced?
Are you kidding me!
