The two then came to the Dongfeng Photo Studio outside the military camp.
"Comrade Liu, do you think I look good in my military uniform?" Xiaoping came to Xiang Nan and smiled after changing into her military uniform backstage.
Xiang Nan looked up and down carefully, then nodded with a smile, "It looks good, very good-looking. Chinese people are full of ambitions, and they don't like red clothes but prefer armed weapons."
Xiaoping blushed shyly when she heard his praise for herself.
Then, as the photographer asked, she sat in front of the curtain and took her own image.
"Master, take two 16-inch photos." She asked the store manager again.
"Why do you need to send two copies?" Xiang Nan asked with a smile, "Oh, by the way, are you going to send one to your father too?"
When Xiaoping heard this, she was a little panicked.
She came from a bad background. Her biological father is still in a labor camp. If others find out, they will definitely look at her through colored glasses. Before she joined the army, she was bullied a lot when she was still in school.
"Don't be afraid. During the political examination for joining the army, in the birth column, I will help you fill in 'Legend'." Xiang Nan waved his hand and lowered his voice and said, "God knows and earth knows, you know and I know, don't tell others. , I will also help you keep it a secret."
When Xiaoping heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Xiang Nan gratefully.
These days, birth determines a person's future. What he did was no different than giving her a life.
"Don't worry too much about your father. If you are so kind, he is definitely not a treacherous person." Xiang Nan comforted him again, "As the saying goes, good will be rewarded with good and evil will be rewarded with evil. He will definitely be fine. Cheer up and cheer for him. The darkness has come, can the light be far behind?"
When Xiaoping heard what he said, it felt like a ray of light shining directly into her heart, bathing her whole body in light and warmth.
From childhood to adulthood, she was regarded as a loser, a wildcat, and a black person. Almost no one in her family, neighbors, or classmates likes her.
They all alienated her, ignored her, laughed at her, and bullied her, making her feel that she had received too much malice from the world.
Nowadays, Xiang Nan is so gentle, caring for her, comforting and taking care of her so considerately, which makes her really feel so happy.
She couldn't help but laugh, and her eyes formed two curves in laughter.
…
Xiang Nan took Xiaoping back to the military camp, just in time for lunch.
He immediately led Xiaoping to take the rice bowl and queued up to the canteen to get the meal.
"Liu Feng, I heard from the captain that you wrote a song? Is it true?"
"Liu Feng, you really wrote that song. Oops, I didn't realize that you have become a genius."
"Liu Feng, you have gained a lot of ability after joining Yanjing. I heard that the troupe is going to put on a play. Are you also joining the creative team?"
After entering the cafeteria, everyone greeted him enthusiastically.
Liu Feng's song writing and the fact that the art troupe was rehearsing a play had already been spread by the first and second captains when Xiang Nan and Xiaoping went to the photo studio.
Everyone who heard the news was surprised.
You must know that Liu Feng didn't even graduate from elementary school. After joining the army, he became illiterate in the army and could barely read. Who dares to believe that with this degree, he can still write songs? !
However, whether they believed it or not, the squad leader's words were conclusive. Therefore, this made them quite curious.
Facing everyone's curiosity, Xiang Nan did not answer one by one. He just smiled and nodded and continued to line up for food.
Xiaoping was surprised when she heard what everyone said.
She had long felt that Comrade Liu was a pacesetter, a model, and an extraordinary person. But I didn't expect that he was even better than I thought, and he could actually write songs.
In her opinion, those who can write songs are talented people. Comrade Liu is really great!
…
Xiang Nan led Xiaoping to prepare a meal.
The troops don't have to spend money to eat, and they will all take care of it. However, although I can ensure that I am full, I am not eating well. The rice is white rice and the vegetable is water spinach.
Water spinach grows easily and can be eaten for most of the year from April to October. Stir-fried water spinach, pickled water spinach, boiled water spinach, mixed water spinach... almost all year round, so it is nicknamed "the four empty dishes".
The people in the military camp were actually tired of eating it a long time ago. So they often go out for dental rituals with a stipend.
But for Xiaoping, white rice and water spinach are already very good meals, better than the steamed buns she usually eats at home. So after eating, she and Xiang Nan found seats, sat down, and then ate with relish.
…
"Hey, Liu Feng, you really wrote a song, let's sing it and listen to it." While eating, Hao Shuwen came over and sat across from Xiang Nan with a majestic look and said.
Xiang Nan was a little unhappy with her condescending and bossy attitude.
Everyone is the same soldier, so what's the plot? I’m not a domesticated actor, but I’m still rapping and singing? !
So he smiled and said, "What's the rush? The emperor still has hungry soldiers, at least let me finish my meal first."
Hao Shuwen was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "Then eat quickly~"
Xiang Nan smiled and continued eating.
"Liu Feng, I heard that the group rehearsed the drama. Was it your idea?" Hao Shuwen asked again.
"I don't have any ideas." Xiang Nan waved his hand, "That was the political commissar's idea."
Hao Shuwen was stunned again.
She was well-informed and had already heard from the captains that it was Liu Feng who came up with the idea of arranging a play in the group. But now he is giving the credit to the political commissar.
Don't take credit when you have merit, and give the credit to your superiors. She thought that only high-ranking cadres like her had this kind of mentality, but she didn't expect Liu Feng to be able to do this.
Not simple.
"I heard that you have also joined the creative team?" Hao Shuwen smiled again, "Not bad, we must cooperate well in the future."
"Okay." Xiang Nan responded briefly.
"Then do you think we should write..." Hao Shuwen said again.
"My dear Miss Hao, can you please let me finish eating first?" Xiang Nan said with a bitter smile, "After eating, let's find time to talk slowly, okay?"
"Eat, eat, eat, you know how to eat, why don't I squeeze you to death." Hao Shuwen was rejected many times, and she felt a little embarrassed. She couldn't help laughing and scolding, then got up and left.
…
After eating, Xiang Nan took Xiaoping to clean the rice bowl.
"You go back to the dormitory to rest. From twelve to two o'clock, you can take a short nap." He told Xiaoping, "Have a good rest. We have to train in the afternoon."
"Yeah." Xiaoping nodded.
Xiang Nan returned to his dormitory with the rice bowl.
Their dormitory is a dormitory for six people. There are three bunk beds, a wardrobe in the north corner, and a shared desk.
When Xiang Nan came back, the people in his dormitory had already returned.
As soon as they saw him, they all asked, "Liu Feng, have you really written a song?", "What kind of song did you write? Please sing it.", "Liu Feng, you can't even read a few Chinese characters, why? Can you write songs?"
