Chapter XIII Appointments
"Knock knock!"
"Who?"
"It's me, it's time to eat. Xiao Mei's voice sounded outside the door.
Only then did Ximen Lang remember that he didn't seem to have eaten yet, and he was hungry? If he hadn't been a little excited when he heard the news just now, he might not have been able to stand it.
"Wow, so many dishes?" Ximen Lang opened the door and smelled the fragrance, as soon as he walked out, he saw a lot of dishes on the table, which looked good, but he didn't expect this Xiao Mei's craftsmanship to be really good.
"Aren't you hungry for a long time?" Xiao Mei handed over a bowl of rice, Ximen Lang didn't say much and nodded, now he is a lot calmer about Xiao Mei, or as an ordinary friend, it's not bad, besides, Ximen Lang got the news just now, and his mood instantly improved a lot, and he didn't target Xiao Mei so much, but he still didn't have any further acquaintance with her in his heart, as if this was not bad.
"I'm sorry just now! I hope you don't mind. Xiao Mei saw that Ximenlang seemed to be in a good mood, and said with some apprehension, she was indeed wrong about what happened just now, after all, Ximenlang was also kind.
"It's okay, I forgot a long time ago, am I such a stingy person?" Ximen Lang waved his hand, this matter is over, Ximen Lang will not worry much about a woman, and now Xiao Mei has also apologized.
"I'll move out next month, I've already contacted it, my job has been assigned housing, but I still need to trouble you this month, as for the rent, I only give it to you at the end of the month, do you think it's okay?" Xiao Mei said cautiously with her rice bowl, she was afraid that Ximen Lang would not agree, if she didn't agree, she really couldn't find a place to live this month.
"No problem, you can live at ease, you don't have to worry about the rent, you can give it if you have it, and forget it if you don't. Although Ximen Lang doesn't know what is going on with her, but seeing her think like this, she should be in trouble, so if you can help, let's help?
"Thank you!" Xiao Mei lowered her head and thanked Ximenlang very much, she was glad that she had met such a good person as Ximenlang.
The two of them didn't speak after that, it seemed that everyone was a lot calmer after what happened just now, if Ximen Lang had been looking for a topic before, but now, eat your own food, right?
…………
After lunch, Ximenlang still needs to go to the army to exchange his military ID card, today is Friday, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow there will be no one, and on Monday Ximenlang has to go to work to officially report that there is no time.
"I'm going out in a while, do you need me to bring anything?" Ximenlang saw that after eating, Xiao Mei put away the dishes and chopsticks and entered the kitchen, thinking that it was good to have someone to help cook.
"No, I don't need anything just yet. Xiao Mei shook her head, she just needs and can't let Ximen Lang take it, not to mention that she doesn't have any money in her hand, and she doesn't know what to do with this month's food money?
"Oh!" Ximen Lang nodded and took his coat out of the room, Ximen Lang is not as crazy as yesterday, and his dress is still very formal, after all, he was bored yesterday, and it was good if he didn't make people think that he was a psychopath.
Qingzhong's December is very cold, especially in the past two years, the weather has changed a lot, Ximenlang's body is very good, but it feels cool when he goes out, and the pedestrians on the road are wearing thick down jackets and warm clothes.
Ximenlang's home is not very far from the army, and it is about ten minutes away by bus, and there are several stops, but it is now noon, and there are fewer people in the car, and Ximenlang does not have to enjoy the feeling of crowding, so he easily found a place to sit.
"Hello, can you change the position?" Ximen Lang closed his eyes and recuperated, and suddenly heard a crisp voice in his ears, and when he opened his eyes, it turned out to be a thirty-year-old Cheng * Zi, his face was a little pale, sitting next to him, it seemed that there was some motion sickness, Ximenlang This is the first time I have seen someone take the bus motion sickness, which is more peculiar, but I still nodded and changed positions with the woman, and said that I was going to get off in a while, and there were still three stations, I just closed my eyes and didn't pay attention, and now I found that the car was full of people, and there were a lot of people.
"Thank you!" the woman smiled embarrassedly, opened a small opening in the window, and suddenly became much more comfortable, this bus is indeed not very well ventilated, especially when there are many people.
After such an episode, it was soon at the station, Ximenlang arrived at the door early, the bus door opened and walked down, the troops were more than ten meters behind the station The distance is very convenient, Ximenlang often passed by before, this is the first time to come in?
"Hello, may I ask what is the matter with you?" There were two soldiers standing on the door booth, and they gave a military salute very decently, Ximenlang felt very cordial, and he also replied, took out his documents and handed them to the soldiers.
"Hello, do you need my help. When the soldier looked at Ximenlang's documents, he was startled, he was actually a major, and he looked about the same age as him, but there was such a big difference?
"Hehe, I want to ask how to go to the Military and Political Office?" Ximen Lang smiled, he was here to apply for documents, the previous documents were outdated, and I heard the teacher say that he is now a major general, and he has become a general, and this major's certificate can also be changed.
"I'll take you there!" The soldier beckoned his comrades next to him to stand guard for him, and he took Ximen Lang to the military and political office.
"Knock knock!"
"Please come in!"
"Chief, someone is looking for you!" the soldier gave a military salute and stepped out of the way.
"Meng Lang, is that you?" Ximen Lang seemed to feel very familiar when he saw this person, wasn't this his original comrade-in-arms? He was the captain of the special combat team, but he was the logistics minister, the relationship between the two was very good, and because of his personality, he was also a very good friend, Ximen Lang had no contact with anyone in the past three years, and suddenly he was a little excited to see Meng Lang.
"Brother Lang?" Meng Lang was also very excited, seeing Ximen Lang stand up suddenly, he quickly ran over and hugged Ximen Lang, and said excitedly: "Brother Lang, where have you been! There has been no news of you in the past three years, and you suddenly appeared again." ”
"Hehe!" Ximen Lang smiled and asked again: "Aren't you the logistics director of the special combat team? Why are you now the director of the military and political office in the Qingzhong sub-district?"
"It's not that my father entrusted me to come out, after all, the special combat team is very dangerous, and the chance of promotion is not very great, just like Brother Lang, you should have been a general long ago after completing so many tasks, but wasn't I still a major three years ago? Although I am only the logistics director of the special combat team, there are very few opportunities for promotion, so it is impossible for me to suddenly go to a regiment or a brigade to be the chief, right? It is better to be here, I am also coming to the military and political office at zero hour, and it is estimated that I should be transferred out next year and enter a local department. Meng Lang explained, in fact, there is also a reason for Ximenlang, if Ximenlang is still in the special combat team, he may not come out.
"Yes, you are also the director of the military and political office and the head of logistics of the special combat team, since your father has already arranged it for you, then you don't have to worry, it's much better than me. Ximen Lang was happy for Meng Lang to see that he had such a good development, after all, they were all comrades-in-arms and very good friends.
"By the way, Brother Lang, did you come to see me on purpose?"
"I didn't know you were here, I came to change my military ID, but I didn't know that you were the person in charge here. Ximen Lang spread his hands and said, this is really a coincidence, but it is not an accident, after all, Ximen Lang and Meng Lang were in the special operations brigade of the Southern Military Region at that time, and the special operations brigade of the Southern Military Region is the most unique special forces in China, otherwise Ximen Lang and Meng Lang would not have such good treatment after they came out, and the Qingzhong Division is the branch of the Southern Military Region.
"Brother Lang, aren't you discharged from the army? What?" Meng Lang is very clear about Ximen Lang's situation, Ximen Lang was discharged from the army three years ago, how can he still come to exchange for an officer ID now, and there is no generation, is there only one reason for being promoted.
"I originally thought that I was discharged from the army, but I didn't pay much attention to this issue at the time, and I learned not long ago that I was not discharged from the army, and the military position was still retained in the army. Ximenlang explained.
"It turned out to be the old chief, no wonder. Meng Lang nodded, he knew who Ximen Lang was talking about, and he was also happy that Ximen Lang could make the old chief pay so much attention and a little envious, after all, the old chief was the only one of the few remaining veterans, and he was still the number one person in the Southern Military Region, this Southern Military Region was the largest military region in China, and the top attached great importance to it, and the old chief would never disappear if Ximen Lang existed, and the old chief treated Ximen Lang as if he were his own grandson, and the entire Southern Military Region knew about this.
"Brother Lang, wait a minute, I'll help you take a look. Meng Lang was a little eager to know what position Ximen Lang was now, he was a major when he retired from the army three years ago, and now he should be a lieutenant colonel, right? Like himself, he was only promoted to lieutenant colonel last year.
"Less, major general, how is it possible? Brother Lang, you are a little too fast, right? Could it be that the things sent yesterday were for you?" Meng Lang actually found out that Ximen Lang was already a general, which shocked him a lot, although he thought that Ximen Lang was not a big deal to be a general, after all, his merits were enough three years ago, but now it looks different, he is a lieutenant colonel, and he has no chance to become a general in this life.
"I only found out today, and although it was a bit of a surprise, it was a matter of course. Although Ximen Lang was a little surprised, he didn't think there was anything wrong with being a major general, if it weren't for the fact that he was a major general three years ago
