Chapter 657 Life is 3 Days: Am I here to take a test for being miserable instead of living a carefre
Huo Baohua didn't want to leave, and it was only after Chu Yunting pushed and dragged him that he finally moved.
He couldn't argue back, so he could only huff and puff, "I know you're trying to get rid of me! Humph, go ahead and tell me, let's see what kind of nonsense you can come up with!"
Chu Yunting chuckled, "Look at what Uncle is saying, do you think I would make up nonsense for you?"
He spoke tough on the surface, but he was actually a little insecure inside.
Although they knew each other in Kyoto, due to the age difference, he and Huo Cheng were not really familiar with each other. He only knew Huo Cheng's eldest brother, Huo Zhi, and the rest were Huo Cheng's father and Huo Baohua, who were occasionally talked about by the elders.
Because they were two brothers who were quite well-known in the military family compound.
Huo Baohua joined the army before Huo Cheng's father, and shortly after the founding of the People's Republic of China, he abandoned the military to pursue a career in literature. After retiring from the military, he picked up books again and was later sent abroad to study. After returning to China, he went directly to work at a national research institute.
Huo Cheng's father was initially a young professor at Kyoto University, specializing in the study of ancient Chinese military history and tactical thought.
In the second year of the Liberation War, he learned from his father that the army had the idea of setting up a military academy. He immediately requested to join the troops under his command and fight alongside them. In addition to learning practical combat experience from the soldiers, he also diligently studied modern military knowledge.
Actively study relevant tactical command, weapons use, and political ideology of the troops, with the hope of cultivating more military commanders and senior staff officers in the future to improve the overall military quality of the troops.
In the spring of 1949, as he underwent a complete transformation, all his efforts were recognized. A central government order transferred him directly to Ningbo to assist Marshal Liu in the establishment of the Military Academy.
He did this for more than 20 years.
The reason why the two Huo brothers are famous is precisely because one abandoned his studies to join the army, and the other abandoned the army to join the army; both of them devoted themselves to the country.
These were stories that people of Chu Yunting's age had heard since childhood, and the admiration and respect they felt from a young age were deeply ingrained in their hearts.
However, even with his thick skin, Chu Yunting found it difficult to utter a torrent of praise in front of the person involved.
Moreover, Huo Baohua didn't like these things either.
Flattery won't work; we can only talk about Huo Cheng from the ground up. Fortunately, Huo Cheng was involved in some of Chu Xin's initiatives in the production brigade back in Heilongjiang Province, and he happened to have a good relationship with Chu Xin and knew her a bit better.
He could probably get rid of Huo Baohua by adding some details and embellishing the story.
Chu Xin watched as Huo Baohua went from being forcibly held and unwilling to struggle at first, to having no choice but to leave with Chu Yunting, and later carefully listening to the chatter of the person beside him.
Only after the two figures had completely disappeared did she ask Zhou Yichen, "Do you think he's given up?"
Knowing what she was worried about, Zhou Yichen said he couldn't make a guarantee, "Let's just see how it goes. Maybe at some point you'll want to talk to him?"
Chu Xin's eyes widened, her expression shifting from surprise to understanding, and finally to obvious disappointment.
"So you don't understand me at all? In the end, our feelings have just faded. Sigh!"
Why not say that Huo Baohua has come to his senses and stopped pursuing her?
Anyway, if she doesn't want to do it, no one would do it even if you killed them!
Zhou Yichen smiled helplessly and quickly tried to appease him, "It's my fault. I'll try not to let him bother you."
After speaking, he looked at Jia Zhenyan, whose eyes were lifeless.
Jia Zhenyan: ...
No, you two are really scoundrels, you both only care about him and take advantage of him.
With his last bit of energy, Jia Zhenyan rolled his eyes at both of them, then turned and swayed toward the staff dormitory of his workplace.
It's obvious they're going to sleep.
Chu Xin shook her head, "No, no, I absolutely cannot fall into his situation, otherwise I'll either be driven crazy by his annoyance or I'll strangle the person who's bothering me."
That's terrifying, like having your soul sucked away by a fairy.
Not wanting to say anything wrong on this topic, Zhou Yichen changed the subject and asked, "You don't seem to have a good impression of that Huo Tianci either."
It wasn't a question, it was a certainty; I recognized it the moment I heard it.
Chu Xin didn't deny it, and said as she went upstairs, "Yeah, he looks harmless, but he doesn't give off a good vibe at all. My sixth sense is always very accurate, and I didn't like him at first sight."
That's probably true, otherwise Huo Baohua wouldn't have been so disgusted with his so-called cousin.
Speaking of this, she remembered something else, "It seems that something must have happened to the Huo family as well. Huo Cheng went to the countryside to hide, but what about his family? Wasn't Huo Baohua implicated?"
When Zhou Yichen heard her ask this, a complicated expression flashed across his face, and he nodded slightly.
"Something has happened. Huo Baohua's older brother is named Huo Xingguo, who is also the father of Huo Cheng, who went to the countryside in Heilongjiang Province with you."
He was among the first batch of military instructors at my country's first military academy, and with over twenty years of teaching experience, he trained many talented individuals for the armed forces. He is a truly respectable person.
Chu Xin stopped in her tracks as she listened. She couldn't understand how someone with such a brilliant and upright career could be framed and reduced to a criminal who needed to be sent to a labor camp.
Zhou Yichen sighed, "It's precisely because he has dedicated his life to education and is too upright that he often expressed dissatisfaction with the actions and remarks of those four people. He just didn't expect that what he thought were his private words would be reported by someone with ulterior motives."
Soon, those people accused him of opposing prominent politics, opposing the ideas of great men, and trying to incite rebellion by using his position as a teacher. As a result, Huo Xingguo was criticized and sent to a labor camp.
Huo Cheng was sent to the countryside as soon as he realized something was wrong. Huo Cheng's older brother, Huo Zhi, was in the army at the time, and although he was not as badly treated, he was still sent to work in a pig farm.
Grandpa Huo and Grandma Huo were already old, and the suddenness of the incident caused them to both pass away from anger.
Huo Baohua was spared much trouble because of his special status; those people couldn't reach into the research institute. He was only transferred to the arsenal in the last few months.
Chu Xin has been here for a year and has seen many such things. She is neither numb to it nor indignant. This is not something that a transmigrator like her can solve by getting angry.
"It seems I underestimated him. Huo Tianci's family did such a thing—selling out their relatives for personal gain—yet he can still go to work at the arsenal as if nothing happened. His whole family are ruthless!"
Zhou Yichen agreed, "Yes, you can tell what kind of education a family provides just by looking at the child. Those three should stop here, otherwise it will be of no benefit to the people or the country."
"What do you mean? You want to kill them?!" Chu Xin's voice was filled with obvious excitement.
Zhou Yichen: ...
That's absolutely not what he meant!!!
He couldn't recall how many times he felt helpless during that short morning, and he said, "Think carefully and speak cautiously."
Chu Xin snorted and went upstairs, leaving Zhou Yichen with a remark that made his forehead crease with exasperation.
"I'm only 30,000 days in my life, am I supposed to live it to the fullest or take a test to prove how miserable I am? This isn't allowed, that isn't permitted, what's it to you!"
