Episode 136 The Pioneers of the Times (24) Lost Memories

Beijing, as the capital of our country, is the location of our army headquarters, stationed in the capital area of a large number of troops, every year from the army to the local soldiers, to say the least there must be tens of thousands of people, a 'well in the line' bar, these people who are still nostalgic for the 'history of being a soldier' gathered together, naturally the business of the bar is quite good, because only rich people will order songs in the bar, at once out four or five songs, the bar also collected four or five hundred yuan.

When the waiter holding the silver plate passed by Guo Xiaosong and Liu Min's table, Liu Min also took out a hundred yuan from his bag, "Whatever you like to hear, just order it, I'll invite you!" ’

Guo Xiaosong smiled at Liu Min, "Then let's have a song "Barracks Man", this is an old song, I don't know if they can sing it!" Analyzing the age of these singers, Guo Xiaosong believes that they are all younger than himself, compared to them, he can be regarded as a 'veteran', and it is natural that others can't sing the songs of the era when they were recruits.

Most of the songs ordered were ordered in advance, and then they had to collaborate with the band, and when they sang another song, they saw the one in the suit coming up again.

"Just now we received a young lady's order for a song, although it is an old song, but our singer still has someone who can sing it, the name of this song is "Barracks Man" ≠! ’

A short singer who didn't look amazing came to the stage, took off his coat, and revealed his sturdy upper body, 'I came to this world, I didn't want to fight, but because of the needs of the times, I took up the gun, lost a lot of opportunities to make a fortune, lost many dreams, threw away a fashionable dress, and got this military uniform~~. ’

The young man at the table next to Guo Xiaosong and Liu Min looked to be about twenty years old, and I saw one of them say. 'What the hell is this, I haven't heard this song before!' ’

'Old songs, the girl at that table ordered it!' ’

'No wonder, the painting is the same as the old goblin, I don't know how old she is, do you see the man, he still pretends to sing, and he doesn't know if it's true or not! ’

Liu Min thinks that if he orders a song, the guests will praise him. However, not only did she not get applause, but she was scolded, and she just wanted to stand up and exert her power, but she was held down by Guo Xiaosong first.

'Listen to the song, don't want to listen, leave!' ’

Liu Min just lifted his clothes, and Guo Xiaosong followed behind, leaving two hundred yuan in the silver plate of the waiter on the side. It's counted as a liquor bill.

'Why don't you let me scold them for being raised by a few sons of a bitch!' As soon as he walked out of the bar, Liu Min quit, not to mention the stumbling and beating, and kicked the iron-clad door hard.

'They're all kids. You have seen it like them, they don't like to listen, it's a big deal, let's just come out, go. I'll go to dinner with you, see what makes you angry, as for it! Guo Xiaosong stepped forward to help Liu Min put on his clothes. In order to prevent Liu Min from driving a 'sideways car', he took the car keys.

'Hey, it's Guo Xiaosong! Before the car could drive away, about seven or eight people passed by, and the leader, a fat man, knocked on the window glass of the car.

'Kong Xiangwu! Why are you here? 'The old comrades-in-arms, even if they haven't seen each other for seven or eight years, their appearance has changed a lot, but Guo Xiaosong still recognized Kong Xiangwu.

For Guo Xiaosong to go to the military academy, Kong Xiangwu was extremely jealous back then, when he saw that Guo Xiaosong was dressed in casual clothes today, especially when he was not sitting next to Ai Xiaomeng, but Liu Min, he also understood many questions himself, 'Where are you going, so anxious, go in and have two drinks?' ’

Guo Xiaosong got out of the car and said, "We just came out, you guys go!" ”

'Just come out?' Can't, go in, go in, drink some more, I opened this bar, it's all at the door, how can there be a gift that the old comrades-in-arms don't arrange, if the old comrades-in-arms know about it in the future, I think my old hole is too picky! It turns out that the 'well in the line' was opened by Kong Xiangwu, no wonder there is the smell of a military camp here.

"You are Guo Xiaosong's fellow Lao Kong, let's tell you the truth, we were angry in it just now, we won't go back if we go back, another day, now that I'm angry, how can I drink wine!" In her memory, Liu Min seemed to have seen Kong Xiangwu, but it was a pity that the previous little soldier had grown into a big fat man, so she spoke boldly.

Don't listen to her, it's just two young people gossiping, it's nothing, let's go in, we have other things!" Guo Xiaosong said that he was about to return to the car.

"What can you do, isn't it just that you are angry on my territory, come with me, you watch, see if your brother has the strength, and I will give you this evil breath!" After speaking, Kong Xiangwu waved his hand, and two or three people carried Guo Xiaosong and walked inside, so that Liu Min had no choice but to drop the car keys and follow in.

'The old squad leader is here! The old squad leader is here! As soon as Kong Xiangwu and these people walked into the 'Jing Zhongxing' bar, the dim lights were all turned on, and the high light bulb could clearly illuminate the fine lines on the corners of everyone's eyes in the room, which could only be said to be fine lines, just because these people were all young men in their twenties, and there were really few old ones.

'Who scolded my comrades-in-arms just now, dare not stand up!' Kong Xiangwu pulled Guo Xiaosong to stand on the stage, and then picked up the microphone and yelled.

No one squeaked, as if it was these guests, and they were still afraid of Kong Xiangwu.

I repeat, don't let me name me! Kong Xiangwu raised his tone to another notch.

'Old squad leader, it's us!' Finally someone admitted.

"Do you drink cat urine, no one dares to scold, do you know who he is?" Kong Xiangwu pointed to Guo Xiaosong on the side.

Several young men shook their heads violently.

'He is what I used to tell you before, my best old comrade-in-arms, my fellow countryman, when I was a soldier, I was the fourth squad leader, he was the seventh squad leader, and later he was admitted to the Central Military Academy, I took the exam for you again, what is his name? Kong Xiangwu raised Mike up a notch again, roaring so loudly that the bar echoed.

'Guo-Xiao-Song! ’

That's right, it's Guo Xiaosong! ’

It's him, it turns out that he is Guo Xiaosong! ’

Now the bar exploded, Liu Min felt that the reaction in the room at this time was very strong, and even some female guests jumped excitedly, and they all wanted to come forward to "see" the living 'Guo Xiaosong'. ’

'Old squad leader, we were wrong! Can you forgive us! A few young people who were scolding just now were lined up side by side at this time. All of them had very high chests, and it seemed that they had also served as soldiers.

'How?' Your Guo Xiaosong's name has long been a household name in my place, what's the matter, you also have a private visit to the micro-service, it's very low-key, next time you come again, remember to wear your 'major uniform', this is not good-looking, what the hell are you! Kong Xiangwu seems to know Guo Xiaosong very well. Although the two have not seen each other again for seven or eight years, Kong Xiangwu still makes people see that they are really 'good comrades-in-arms'.

In Kong Xiangwu's boss's office, the walls were covered with photos of himself and others, both of himself and of others. There is also a photo of him, looking at himself in the photo, carrying a 'red card' on his shoulder, and then looking at the marks on the photo. At that time, it was his first year of being admitted to the military academy, and the location was the old unit of the 'Iron and Blood Regiment', which may have stayed behind when he returned to the old army after he went to college.

'How?' This photo. You don't have any of your own, do you? Kong Xiangwu's voice was very excited.

No, I don't even remember what it was like at the time, whether it was after I went to military school. Did you come back to take a picture? ’

"No, you watched the time, it was my camera that was wrong, this is when my veteran was demobilized, you came back to take it!" It was washed with the same piece that I took with the previous photo, so the time was misplaced! It turned out that this photo was from Kong Xiangwu's camera.

'No, I'm not impressed!' Guo Xiaosong's memory has always been very good, and he will definitely have an impression of such a precious old photo, especially this photo is very good, which is the best he took when he was a soldier.

"Can't do anything, in your impression, you have been a soldier for more than ten years, but in my impression, there is only the impression of being a soldier for four years, you know four years, I went to visit the home time, and it is 1,200 days, I remember it really, if you want, I still have the foundation, I will wash you again, and you can come and get it if you have time!" ’

When he was a warrior, Kong Xiangwu was very jealous of Guo Xiaosong, but when they met again today, it was like a different person, with a big belly, he was no longer the sturdy warrior of the year, and now he is more like a big boss and entrepreneur, Guo Xiaosong seems to have found his youth again.

Although she also returned to the bar again, Liu Min finally left, because she was tired of being here and left Guo Xiaosong here alone.

'She's still the same, the eldest lady's temper hasn't changed, I heard that her father has been promoted to deputy commander, no wonder she's so good! Kong Xiangwu's words are still in the style of Acheng, and when he came out of the office, he also specially took out a bottle of fine foreign wine, which can be regarded as the 'treasure of the town store' in his store.

Tasting the mellow fine foreign wine, Guo Xiaosong was also drunk, "Let's not talk about her first, by the way, after you are demobilized, didn't you say that you would go back to City A to work as a pig company, why did you go back to the capital!" ’

'Don't mention it, how can I tell you, I don't go home, my parents still miss me, I go this time, I don't know what, those pigs in my pigsty, all TMD have swine fever, how to take the medicine is not good, it is best to let the local epidemic prevention station to be buried, although I lost some money, but my mother came up with a fire, got cerebral hemorrhage, in order to treat my mother, I used to have a little money, and it was all spent, fortunately I didn't shed too much sequelae, but the money was gone, and I had to come out to work! It turned out that Kong Xiangwu also had his own very sad history, he was talking, and he looked at Guo Xiaosong, looking at the expression on Guo Xiaosong's face, Guo Xiaosong also became sad and seemed very sympathetic.

'Come, drink, drink, this bottle of wine was bought when my bar first opened, and I couldn't afford to drink it at the time, it's really expensive, and now I have money, but I still haven't drunk it, that is, you, how is it, what does it taste like?' Kong Xiangwu poured another cup for Guo Xiaosong.

"What else can it taste, the taste of wine, I have learned to mix bartending, not all wine can be put for a long time, your bottle is just right, put it just right!" Guo Xiaosong is like a sommelier, and he has a comment on this wine.

'It's really fake, and there are noses and eyes, let me ask you again, why is it not Ai Xiaomeng next to you, why did you become Liu Min, are you also full of flowers? ’

'What nonsense, Liu Min is just my ordinary friend, Ai Xiaomeng is official! ’

"Who believes it, it's still good-looking, it's not like me, I found a city A before, and then my mother was hospitalized and had no money, so she ran away with someone, but I'm satisfied with what I'm looking for now, or I'll call you?" As he spoke, Kong Xiangwu waved his hand to a female singer on the side, and the woman staggered over.

"Let me introduce you, this is your sister-in-law, although I didn't find a woman to go home as a soldier, but my daughter-in-law is a militia, the militia understands, haha!" Kong Xiangwu suddenly burst out laughing.

'Don't listen to him, he's teasing you, Guo Xiaosong, hello, it's a pleasure to meet you! Kong Xiangwu's wife, although she is not such a big beauty, has a unique character, especially the red 'beret' on her head, which looks quite good on her head.

'Sister-in-law, what are the militia training?' Guo Xiaosong was still thinking about what Kong Xiangwu had said earlier.

The woman did not answer, and turned away.

'I said you are really stupid and stupid, I am gesturing hard here, you don't see it! It turned out that Kong Xiangwu was joking with Guo Xiaosong, and his hand kept gesturing in his crotch and making a gesture of 'digging out a mine'. (To be continued......)
