Chapter 109 Xu Ge is becoming your uncle-in-law?!

The new recruits are going to their units today, and they're getting an extra meal for dinner.

It must be said that the food in the old company was much better than that in the new recruit company. A round table was filled with ten dishes and a soup, including hearty dishes such as braised pork knuckle, roast chicken, and steamed fish, which were simply not available in the new recruit company.

Although it was an extra meal, it still showed the usual food standards of the old company.

Xu Geguang could tell from the appearance and taste of these dishes that the cooking team of the Sixth Company was at least two levels better than that of the recruit company.

Class 9's table was located in the innermost corner of the cafeteria, with no other tables nearby. Since there were only eight people in the class, the space around the table seemed exceptionally large, giving the impression of eating in a private cubicle.

"Hurry up and start eating, don't be shy!"

Guo Yuanshuai called out to Xu Ge and Li Dongshui, "Don't worry about us, just grab whatever you want to eat, and if you can't reach it, stand up and get it!"

Kaiyoumu also stopped being reserved, took the lead in rolling up his sleeves and tearing the roast chicken apart, giving two chicken legs to Xu Ge and Li Dongshui, and then eating the chicken wings himself.

Xu Ge and Li Dongshui were already hungry, so since the old squad leader had spoken, they didn't stand on ceremony and started eating heartily.

The other veterans seemed more composed, leisurely picking up a bite here and a bite there with their chopsticks.

Guo Yuanshuai tapped the bowl twice with his chopsticks. Niu Sanxian seemed to remember something, so he quickly got up and ran into the mess hall's supply depot. When he came back, he had a bottle of mineral water and a plate of peanuts in his hand.

Wow!
Guo Yuanshuai opened a bottle of mineral water and poured half a bowl into his own bowl, then looked at Xu Ge and Li Dongshui: "Do you two want to try some mineral water?"

Xu Ge shook his head while biting into a chicken leg: "Deputy squad leader, I'll just have the soup."

"Really don't want it? This brand of mineral water is really good stuff!" Guo Yuanshuai laughed, took a sip, and then popped two peanuts into his mouth.

Li Dongshui asked curiously, "What brand of mineral water?"

Guo Yuanshuai: "Bo Yunbian!"

Li Dongshui was taken aback: "I've never heard of this brand before?"

"That's right, it's a specialty from our hometown, hahaha!" Guo Yuanshuai and the veterans all laughed.

After a while, Xu Ge had almost finished eating and looked at Guo Yuanshuai: "Squad leader, you said your back hurts today, what's wrong?"

Upon hearing Xu Ge's words, the veterans immediately became interested and put down their chopsticks.

"It's an old problem. I don't dare to have surgery, otherwise I won't be able to exert any strength in the future!" Guo Yuanshuai said casually. "But I heard that there is a vice president of the military hospital who is very good at acupuncture, but there are too many people seeking treatment from him."

“Then I’ll have Dr. Lin ask him for you later,” Xu Ge said.

Whoops!

The others immediately became excited.

“Uncle Xu, and me too. After I fractured my ankle last time, it seems like the bone grew crooked. I want to break it and set it again, otherwise I'll keep walking with my toes pointing outwards!” Liu Senlin was the first to speak.

Wang Lin: "Me too, me too! I told you before we started eating!"

"Dad Xu, could you please ask your girlfriend to help me find a specialist to perform the surgery? Everyone says that varicocele can affect fertility, and I'm a little worried!" Su Liujun also spoke up.

Niu Sanxian: "I'm not in a rush to get that cut, anytime is fine, I just want to understand..."

Li Dongshui's mouth dropped open. Good heavens, these veterans were all making it sound so serious!

Xu Ge hesitated for a moment: "How about I ask for the deputy squad leader first? Dr. Lin and I are just ordinary friends. Asking so many questions at once is a bit too much!"

"No!"

Su Liujun slammed his hand on the table and said with certainty, "According to what the platoon leader said, Dr. Lin is interested in you now, and she can't wait for you to see her more often!"

"That's right, Father Xu, if you two really succeed, we guys deserve a lot of credit."

"But..."

"No buts, just tell me when you plan to contact Dr. Lin," Wang Lin said urgently. "How about we go upstairs and make the call after we finish eating?"

Xu Ge shook his head: "We chat every night before going to bed!"

"Oh~~~"

The veterans immediately looked at Xu Ge with expressions of "I see."

Xu Ge was too lazy to explain and continued to eat.

. . .

. . .

Today is Friday, and normally the troops would be on holiday mode after dinner.

However, since the new recruits had been assigned to their units, Liu Guoping instructed each platoon to organize two hours of physical training on the parallel bars and horizontal bars after dinner.

It was called physical training, but it was actually just a way for squad leaders to take the opportunity to assess the physical fitness level of the new recruits in their squads.

After everyone changed into their physical training clothes and arrived at the equipment field, and after the areas were assigned, sure enough, the first ones to get on the bars were all new recruits.

To the surprise of the entire company, all the sick soldiers from the Ninth Platoon also came down, which even the instructor Jiang Da found strange.

The other recruits looked at Xu Ge and Li Dongshui with pity in their eyes.

Including Kaiyu, there are a total of six sergeants in the ninth squad. At this moment, all six of them are acting as safety officers, standing solemnly on both sides of the horizontal bar.

Xu Ge and Li Dongshui stood alone in front of the horizontal bar, preparing to get on.

In other words, six veterans were training the two new recruits!

Unlike other classes where each recruit can take turns resting for ten or twenty minutes after completing a set, these two can only work non-stop.

At this moment, Li Dongshui, who was standing behind Xu Ge, turned pale. Only now did he realize what kind of life it would be like in a squad full of sick sergeants.

The thought that any training in the future might be like this made his calves start to cramp!

"First place, get ready, go for the bar!"

At Kaiyoumu's command, Xu Ge stepped forward to the bar, jumped lightly, grabbed the bar, and hung up.

"Let's practice pull-ups, making sure the form is correct. Begin!"

Xu Ge immediately pulled down with both hands, touching the bar with his chest before slowly lowering himself down, completing one repetition.

"it is good!"

"Pretty!"

"Great!"

"That's a great move, perfect!"

The veterans cheered one by one. Xu Ge: ? ? ?
No, is it really that serious?

"2, 3, 4, 5, 6..."

As Kaiyoumu counted, Xu Ge began to pull up one after another.

At first, every time Xu Ge did something, the veterans would praise him, though their tone was mostly teasing.

But gradually, everyone's expressions became serious, and even Guo Yuanshuai joined Kaiyoumu in counting with great interest.

"37, 38, 39, 40, 41..."

Xu Ge was still pulling, and although the pace had slowed down, it was clear that he still had plenty of energy left.

Su Liujun leaned towards Guo Yuanshuai: "Squad leader, it seems Xu Ge is an elite soldier?"

Guo Yuanshuai nodded: "As Luo Pai also said, all three of them have won first place in individual events in the recruit camp. Kai Zi goes without saying, Li Dongshui is the best in shooting, and Xu Ge's greatest strength is not physical fitness, but tactics."

Su Liujun narrowed his eyes: "Tactics? How strong can they be?"

"Why don't you try it yourself after the guns are handed out next Monday? Anyway, when they said the tactical recruit camp was the best in front of Kai, Kai didn't say a word."

"Squad leader, do you mean I have to go to the training ground on Monday?"

"Not only you, but we'll all go and take a look!"

Guo Yuanshuai chuckled in a low voice, "Let Wang Lin try Li Dongshui's marksmanship too. I want to see what kind of new recruits Du Hu has trained for me."

. . .

. . .

Xu Ge ultimately did 77 pull-ups, causing quite a stir in the weight room.

Let alone new recruits, this achievement surpasses that of most veterans!
His LV3 physical fitness was already among the best in the recruit camp. After adding 200 proficiency points yesterday, this was the first time he had gone all out. It can be said that, excluding Kaiyuki, he is the strongest in terms of physical fitness among this batch of recruits.

Li Dongshui was also good, pulling nearly 40 people, which surpassed most of the new recruits.

This changed the sergeants' perception of the two new recruits in the platoon quite a bit, and they became noticeably gentler in their speech.

After training, roll call was taken, and Liu Guoping naturally couldn't help but praise Xu Ge a couple of times when summarizing the evening's training.

After explaining the arrangements for the following weekend, each class took their own toiletries back to their classrooms.

Around 9 p.m., just before lights out, Xu Ge was forcibly pressed down onto the bed by several veterans.

Snapped!
Niu San lit a cigarette and put it directly into Xu Ge's mouth, while placing an ashtray on the bedside table.

Su Liujun brought over a bucket of freshly made instant noodles, while Liu Senlin brought over a can of cola.

Wang Lin climbed directly onto Xu Ge's bed, rolled up his sleeves, and began massaging his arms and neck.

Li Dongshui and Kaiyoumu watched in disbelief, wondering what these veterans were doing.

"Ahem..."

Xu Ge was choking on the smoke and struggled to sit up: "Damn it! Stop, stop, stop, what are you doing?"

clap clap clap!
Wang Lin continued patting Xu Ge's shoulder with great professionalism: "Isn't it great, Daddy Xu? These are the four things we make sure our deputy squad leader does every night. Tonight, you'll experience it too!"

Xu Ge was trembling all over from being knocked on, his voice shaking: "What. Four. Ones?"

"A bowl of instant noodles, a bottle of water, a massage, and a cigarette!"

"Guys, I'm going to message Dr. Lin right now, please stop messing with me!"

brush!
The four sergeants immediately dispersed, afraid of disturbing Xu Ge.

Xu Ge took out his phone, opened the chat box and sent a message to Lin Wan: Dr. Lin, are you free now?
Lin Wan replied almost instantly: "You're free now, right? How's it going with your old unit? Did the veterans laugh at you for not being able to speak?"

Xu Ge: Actually, I got better not long after we parted yesterday.

There was no response for a while. After a while, Lin Wan sent dozens of bomb emojis and asked: Then why didn't you tell me?!

Xu Ge stared at the screen filled with bombs and didn't know how to respond.

next moment.

Buzz!
Lin Wan called directly via video.

Xu Ge hung up and looked at Guo Yuanshuai: "Squad leader, Dr. Lin called me!"

"Then answer it quickly!" the five veterans said in unison.

Xu Ge looked at everyone, then at his phone: "Deputy squad leader, should I go to the restroom to answer it?"

"Just pick him up in the classroom!"

Guo Yuanshuai sprang up from the bed in an instant. "Everyone, follow me to the hallway and clear the way!"

Xu Ge: ? ? ?
"Yes!"

Everyone immediately ran outside.

Li Dongshui had already gone into bed, but Liu Senlin dragged him out, blanket and all.

"Bring out the instant noodles, I'm starving!" Guo Yuanshuai pointed inside. "I haven't even had a proper meal tonight!"

"Yes!"

Niu Sanxian rushed in again, picked up the instant noodles from Xu Ge's bedside table, and prepared to leave. Before leaving, he glanced at Lin Wan's profile picture on Xu Ge's phone, finding it familiar. Just as he was about to ask, Guo Yuanshuai outside started cursing:
"You son of a bitch, get the hell out here right now and don't bother Xu Ge!"

"Oh! It's coming, it's coming!"

Niu San closed the door first, handed the instant noodles to Guo Yuanshuai, pondered for a moment, then suddenly looked at Kaiyoumu and Li Dongshui and asked:

Do you two know what Dr. Lin's full name is?

Li Dongshui thought for a moment: "I think her name is Lin Wan."

"Holy crap!!!" Niu Sanxian exclaimed immediately, "That's my aunt!"

The entire corridor was quiet.

Guo Yuanshuai, who was slurping noodles, choked and looked up: "Are you sure?"

Niu Sanxian stared blankly: "It's almost certainly true. No wonder that profile picture looked so familiar!"

"You scared the hell out of me!" Guo Yuanshuai's eyes widened. "Buddy, you mean Xu Ge is becoming your uncle-in-law?"
