"Forehead…………."
After hearing the explanation from the Commander-in-Chief's wife, Li Qiufan immediately stopped, and then took a careful peek at the Commander-in-Chief.
At this time, the commander-in-chief was also embarrassed. He did not expect that his wife would say this, and then glared at her angrily.
"What are you looking at, you brat? Go make a fire if you have nothing to do!"
After glaring at his wife, the commander-in-chief wanted to explain to Li Qiufan, but when he turned his head, he saw his eyes glancing at him from time to time.
The commander-in-chief immediately became a little angry and cursed at Li Qiufan.
"What are you doing! Don't show off your military power at home. There's no point in letting guests work!"
Seeing that the Commander-in-Chief was angry, Li Qiufan hurriedly looked around for firewood, but before he could find the Commander-in-Chief's wife, he spoke.
"Commander-in-Chief, do you think I'm still burning?"
Seeing that he had a backer, Li Qiufan became more confident, and then he stood up straight and started teasing the Commander-in-Chief.
"You kid...hum!"
Seeing that Li Qiufan was teasing him, the Commander-in-Chief immediately prepared to teach him a lesson, but as soon as he said three words, his wife glared at him, and in the end he could only snort and leave.
"Hey, thank you very much!"
This was the first time that Li Qiufan saw the Commander-in-Chief deflated, and then he smiled and thanked the Commander-in-Chief's wife.
"There's nothing to be thankful for, I just can't stand his temper!"
"Okay, you go chat for a while, and I'll cook right now!"
The commander-in-chief's wife waved her hand towards Li Qiufan, and then called her niece to the kitchen.
The meal was ready in a short time, and the commander-in-chief's wife and niece brought the food from the kitchen to the table.
The meal is very simple, corn tortillas and sweet potatoes, as well as a plate of pickles and a small pot of cabbage soup.
"Are you used to eating? I'm afraid you have to catch some game in the frontier. I don't have the oil and water like you do here!"
After everyone sat down, the commander-in-chief pointed at the food on the table and asked Li Qiufan.
"Xiao Li serves in the frontier?"
After hearing the commander-in-chief's words, before Li Qiufan could answer, the commander-in-chief's wife asked doubtfully.
"Haha, this brat is the commander of the Kunming Military Region and the deputy chief of staff of the People's Liberation Army!"
After hearing his wife's inquiry, the commander-in-chief said proudly without waiting for Li Qiufan to speak.
"Xiao Li is the commander of the military region?"
After hearing the commander-in-chief's words, the commander-in-chief's wife was immediately shocked.
He never expected that Li Qiufan, at such a young age, was already the commander of a military region and the deputy chief of staff of the People's Liberation Army.
"You underestimate him, right? But this brat is indeed too young."
Seeing his wife's shocked look, the Commander-in-Chief felt inexplicably like he was winning back the victory, and then he smiled and said to her.
"Xiao Li, how old are you this year?"
After the commander-in-chief's wife calmed down, she immediately asked about Li Qiufan's age.
"I am thirty-five years old."
Li Qiufan finally had a chance to speak, and responded quickly after hearing the commander-in-chief's wife's inquiry.
"It's incredible. He's already the commander of a military region at the age of thirty-five!"
After hearing Li Qiufan's age, the commander-in-chief's wife sighed with emotion.
"Haha, it's incredible? You won't know what extraordinary things are until the grand conferment ceremony is over in a few days!"
Seeing his wife's reaction, the Commander-in-Chief smiled and spoke again.
"Grand award? What does it mean?"
The commander-in-chief's wife was confused and didn't understand what the commander-in-chief meant.
"This is not something you can know. Let's eat!"
The commander-in-chief did not explain to his wife that although these matters were not confidential, they could not be disclosed casually.
After hearing the commander-in-chief's words, the commander-in-chief's wife didn't ask any more questions. This was a tacit understanding the two had developed over the years.
After dinner, the Commander-in-Chief continued to chat with Li Qiufan in the living room.
However, this time the two of them did not talk about the awarding of titles, but instead talked about the future development and construction of the army.
Two days passed quickly, and the day of the grand conferment came one day later.
Li Qiufan had just gotten up at the commander-in-chief's house that day, and his general's uniform was delivered to him.
Li Qiufan belongs to the army, and the colors of the general uniforms of the navy, army and air force are different.
The upper and lower garments of the army general's uniform are navy blue, with red floss on the collar, sleeves, and middle seam of the trousers, and red trim strips on both sides of the middle seam of the trousers.
The upper and lower garments of the navy general's uniform are navy blue, with white floss on the collar, sleeves, and middle seam of the trousers, and red trim on both sides of the middle seam of the trousers.
The upper and lower garments of the Air Force general's uniform are both sky blue, with sky blue floss on the collar, sleeves, and middle seam of the trousers, and red trim strips on both sides of the middle seam of the trousers.
In addition, the collars and sleeves of generals' uniforms of the navy, army and air force are embroidered with gold thread and golden pine branches and leaves, and golden five-pointed stars are embroidered on the left and right heads.
After Li Qiufan looked at the general's uniform, he looked at the epaulettes. There were four general star emblems on the golden epaulettes.
The moment he saw these four star emblems, Li Qiufan's heart twitched violently, and then he couldn't help but reach out and touch them.
"Xiao Li, come and eat... Is this your general's uniform?"
Li Qiufan reached out and touched the four-star emblem on his epaulette. This scene happened to be seen by the commander-in-chief's wife who called him to have dinner.
Since she had seen the commander-in-chief's marshal's uniform, the commander-in-chief's wife recognized that it was Li Qiufan's general's uniform.
But when the commander-in-chief's wife moved her eyes to the epaulettes of the general's uniform, her expression changed instantly.
"Four stars!?"
The commander-in-chief's wife looked at Li Qiufan in disbelief, and then opened her mouth to confirm.
"Yes."
After hearing the commander-in-chief's wife's inquiry, Li Qiufan smiled and nodded in response.
"I see, this is really extraordinary!"
After receiving Li Qiufan's confirmation, the commander-in-chief's wife finally understood the meaning of the commander-in-chief's words.
Originally, she thought it was very rare for Li Qiufan to be the commander of a military region at such a young age.
But what the commander-in-chief's wife didn't expect was that Li Qiufan was rated four stars.
The Commander-in-Chief's wife had heard about the major awards and knew a little about the levels. Of course she knew what the four stars represented.
She really didn't expect that the thirty-five-year-old young man standing in front of her was almost reaching his peak at this age.
"You are overly complimentary. It is all thanks to the love and support of the Commander-in-Chief, as well as the blood and lives sacrificed by the soldiers, that I, Li Qiufan, am where I am today!"
After hearing what the commander-in-chief's wife said, Li Qiufan smiled and shook his head at her.
