The strongest rocket soldier

Chapter 461 The less you care, the more you care
Sweet potatoes were boiled in the small hanging pot on the fire, which was found by Ding Xiaojun from the barracks. Now Langya has no dog food, and Lu Xiaoqiang usually feeds him compressed biscuits, which are really not suitable for dogs.

When the fire subsided, Ding Xiaojun took down the hanging pot, scooped up the sweet potatoes inside with chopsticks, and put them aside. Dogs can’t eat too hot food, they need to be cooled before feeding.

Lu Xiaoqiang secretly took two yuan. Ding Xiaojun saw it and didn't say anything.

……

At night, Ding Xiaojun was lying flat on the bed. He squinted at Lu Xiaoqiang opposite, and saw Lu Xiaoqiang tossing and turning, as if he had a lot of thoughts on his mind.

"Eat too much, sweet potatoes are not something easy to digest, you still have to eat so much."

"It's not that I ate too much, it's that I haven't slept with the soldiers for a long time, and I suddenly feel uncomfortable."

Lu Xiaoqiang found a reason to come out.

"Oh, then I'd better move back." Ding Xiaojun said, sitting up.

"No, you can lie down, I may really have eaten too much, and it doesn't matter to you."

Lu Xiaoqiang said another sentence that contradicted the previous one.

Of course Ding Xiao knew that Ying Xiaoqiang's words before and after were all reasons, and he didn't bother with it, and he didn't go to see Lu Xiaoqiang after he lay down.

After a few minutes of silence, Lu Xiaoqiang turned over again.

"Xiao Hei, where is your cigarette, give me one."

"Battalion Commander, don't you smoke?" Ding Xiaojun said.

"Who said I don't smoke, I know you have, hurry up, take it out, I remember, that little soldier Jin Xin left you a Zhonghua."

Lu Xiaoqiang emphasized again.

Ding Xiaojun actually didn't know about Jin Xin leaving a pack of cigarettes. He knew that Jin Xin had left something for him, but he was too busy when he came back, so he didn't take a look at it yet.

Ding Xiaojun reached out to take his clothes, touched his pockets, but there were no cigarettes in it, he just remembered that he was wearing plain clothes when he came back, and he changed clothes as soon as he came back, it seemed that he threw the cigarettes into the cabinet with his hands up.

He got out of bed, kicked his shoes, walked to the cabinet, opened it, found out the cigarette, threw it directly on Lu Xiaoqiang's bed, and then returned to his own bed.

Lu Xiaoqiang reached out and took the cigarette case, took out one, and put it in his mouth.

"Fire, fire, if you don't give me a lighter, you still expect me to drill wood to make fire."

Ding Xiaojun turned his face away.

"You take it from the desk drawer, the one next to your bed."

Lu Xiaoqiang leaned out half of his body, opened the drawer, and after a while of groping, took out the lighter.

With a snap, a ray of light illuminated Lu Xiaoqiang's face, and then a ray of light in the room flickered, it was Lu Xiaoqiang lighting a cigarette.

Ding Xiaojun turned his body sideways and looked at the flickering flames in front of Lu Xiaoqiang. He knew that it was Lu Xiaoqiang smoking.

Lu Xiaoqiang didn't speak, just smoked in silence.

"Commander, you have something on your mind."

Ding Xiaojun looked at Lu Xiaoqiang's flickering cigarette butt and said.

"My battalion is gone, and I miss it."

Lu Xiaoqiang said something softly.

"Battalion Commander, the two of us are still there, so our battalion is still there." Ding Xiaojun replied.

"It's different, it's different."

Lu Xiaoqiang muttered.

Ding Xiaojun couldn't say anything, he just watched Lu Xiaoqiang continue to smoke, he is not very good at persuading people, let alone persuading someone who has lived longer than himself and has more experience.

After a few minutes of silence, Lu Xiaoqiang threw the cigarette butt in the middle of the room. Ding Xiaojun watched the cigarette butt until it was completely extinguished.

Ding Xiaojun originally thought that Lu Xiaqiang could sleep now, so he took out another cigarette and lit it.

"Xiao Hei, are you asleep?"

The fire on Lu Xiaoqiang's bed flickered, it should be Lu Xiaoqiang flicking soot out.

"Battalion Commander, I'm already asleep." Ding Xiaojun said.

Lu Xiaoqiang suddenly sat up.

"You are playing tricks, you can still talk when you are asleep."

"Commander, what do you want to say, you can say it." Ding Xiaojun said calmly.

"Actually, I'm not sad, do you understand?" Lu Xiaoqiang said as he lay down again.

"I can't see it. I personally think that you are still sad."

Ding Xiaojun changed to lying down. He was not sad, but a little disappointed.

"Hey, don't believe me, I'm really not sad. In fact, at the beginning of the establishment of the camp, I knew that there would be such a day. I was already mentally prepared. On the contrary, it is you who have worked hard for several years. You should be sad when your child is gone."

Lu Xiaoqiang kept emphasizing the word sad, which would make people guess, the more he pretended not to care, the more he cared.

"I'm really not sad, although I didn't expect such a day, but I seem to be used to parting, used to loneliness, and also used to..." Ding Xiaojun suddenly stopped talking later.

"What are you used to?" Lu Xiaoqiang asked.

"Nothing."

Ding Xiaojun replied calmly.

"I can guess that since you joined the army, the army has been reforming. Your first unit was reorganized, and you were sad. Later, you changed to the technical department. Yes, there was no reorganization, but there was no reorganization. You lost your affiliation, and you left again. The second technology battalion is your new starting point, but he adapted it again in the end, but you seem to be used to it. Maybe, your heart has no affiliation, so you say you Don't be sad, because you have already forgotten what it is to be sad."

As Lu Xiaoqiang said, he threw a cigarette towards Ding Xiaojun's bed, and threw the lighter together.

Perhaps it was Lu Xiaoqiang's words that reached his heart, he reached out and groped for the cigarette thrown on the bed, put it in his mouth, and with a snap, the light of the lighter ignited.

Ding Xiaojun looked at the flame of the lighter, looked again and again, until the heat reached his fingers, and then he extinguished the flame, and his cigarette was not lit.

The room became dark again and again, only there was a light flickering on the head of Lu Xiaoqiang's bed.

"Battalion Commander, actually I don't smoke very much, I don't have a habit of smoking."

Ding Xiaojun's tone was calm, as if he was not stimulated by anything.

"You're at ease."

Lu Xiaoqiang said something and threw the cigarette out.

"Are we smoking cigarettes? No, we are smoking mood. In such a scene, we need a cigarette." Lu Xiaoqiang said again.

"I don't smoke anymore. I can't sleep if I smoke. I want to get up early tomorrow."

After Ding Xiaojun finished speaking, he put the cigarette and lighter on the table.

"Okay, actually I know what you want to smoke. You just want to do it. Let me tell you something. In fact, I do have something on my mind. My daughter-in-law is going to visit the army soon, and she will also bring my little princess. , but the current situation in the camp makes me a little embarrassed."
