Chapter 785: Chapter 785: Picking Up Father He and Second Brother to Go to the Capital 4_1

The old man had a simple mindset, he felt that it was a good sign, proving that the army wasn’t afraid of He Teng driving away or doing anything reckless, which was a very pleasing thing for He Zhongguo.

Upon getting in the car, He Da was a bit hesitant. Looking at his own leg, he asked He Teng, "Big brother, will my presence in your army make you lose face? Maybe, I shouldn’t go. I can wait somewhere else and you can take dad and others to the army. If people find out that a deputy regimental commander has a disabled brother, I’m afraid they might look down on you."

"No." He Teng said without hesitation. "Everyone in the army is nice. They won’t look down on anyone."

"Yes, second brother, the people in big brother’s army are very good, especially his leader. They treat big brother very well, especially they protect big brother!" He Dongxue reassured He Da, "Our second brother is no less than anyone! In my eyes, second brother is as good as big brother!"

He Zhilan sitting in the co-pilot seat turned back to look at He Da, her eyes full of smiles, said, "Second brother, don’t worry at all, you will like the people in the army, they are very good."

Seeing his brother and two sisters reassure him, He Da finally felt relieved. After all, he was considered a disabled person, so he always had some inferiority complex. He wasn’t only afraid that others would look down upon him, but also afraid that they would look down upon his family because of him, which would make him feel particularly upset.

Since they were worried about the winding mountain road, and that their dad and brother might get carsick, He Teng drove slowly. It took them over an hour to reach the army.

Knowing that He Teng’s family was coming, even the old regiment commander, who had already been promoted to brigade commander, came out in person to welcome them.

Upon seeing He Zhongguo, the brigade commander laughed and said, "I used to call this kid He Teng, He little brother without distinction of age. Now that I have met you, I am not sure what to call you."

"Just call me He Zhongguo!" He’s father said with a smile. Seeing that the leader of He Teng’s unit was in his forties, not much younger than him, he felt much less distance to him.

"That’s not going to work! Dad is older than the brigade commander, if the brigade commander doesn’t follow Kang Xing in calling him uncle, he must at least call him elder brother!" He Zhilan joked.

"You little girl~" The brigade commander shook his head repeatedly, his face full of smiles "you’re becoming more and more cunning! If I call your dad ’Uncle He’, let’s see if your dad wouldn’t get upset with you!"

"If brigade commander dares to call him, my dad will dare to respond!" He Zhilan replied playfully with a grin. Over the years, she had grown familiar with the brigade commander and knew he was a good guy. So when it came to joking with him, He Zhilan didn’t hold back.

The new family building in the army has been built. He Teng was assigned to the fourth floor, right opposite to Chen Ya’nan’s family. On leading people back to the dormitory, the Chen family came out to say hello after hearing the noise.

"Hello future Teacher He!" Chen Ya’nan’s hair had grown considerably in the last couple of years making her look a bit like a little girl. As she saw He Zhilan, she raised her voice, which startled He Zhilan who was closest to her.

"Alright, alright! I’m fine! Just about to get deaf from your shouting!" He Zhilan was on the verge of laughter; Chen Ya’nan was always full of energy, 365 days a year.

Everyone stood at the door and chatted for a while. Finally, He Teng led his family inside. Upon entering, He’s father was overjoyed.

"The living conditions in the army aren’t bad, this house, is very new, newly built, right?" He Da looked around, knowing He Teng’s character, he did not need to look too hard to know that his dwelling place was always tidy, without any unnecessary items.
