Although rice and steamed buns are both staple foods and favorite foods of Chinese people, they are still somewhat different.

A week later, at every meal, Wang Aiguo and some of the new recruits from the south would stare at the steamed buns in deep thought. They really weren't used to eating steamed buns for all three meals a day.

Furthermore, this steamed bun completely surprised Wang Aiguo. He occasionally ate steamed buns at home, but the steamed buns in S City, if you tear them apart from both sides, you'll find that they're still a whole piece. Just like bread, they're very fluffy and soft.

The steamed buns from Team 12, if you tear them open from both sides, you'll find that they crumble in the middle, making them look like they're made of powder. As for their fluffiness and softness, needless to say, a gust of wind could blow them through the air and you could use them to bowl.

Eating this steamed bun every day was driving Wang Aiguo crazy. But because Grandpa Bi seemed to enjoy it so much, he couldn't say anything.

As for "Grandpa Bi," that was a nickname the new recruits gave him in private.

Time: March 12, 8

Location: Chenyang Recruit Camp

After finishing his steamed buns at noon, Wang Aiguo still went upstairs hungry. He hadn't eaten his fill all week, and he really couldn't eat more than a few steamed buns.

The food in the recruit camp wasn't enough to fill you up, but there was plenty of steamed buns. As for rice, there were only two boxes a day, so you had to fight for it.

A week has passed, and Wang Aiguo's dorm room is finally full of roommates. Of course, as soon as everyone enters, their eyes immediately turn to Wang Aiguo, which leaves him speechless. Is he really that terrifying-looking?

The answer Xiao Ma gave him was—yes, it's super scary.

Then Xiao Ma was gang-raped by Wang Aiguo, who used him as a human whirlwind.

After lunch, everyone gathered together to discuss steamed buns and rice. Huang Gang is from the north, and steamed buns are what people eat in his hometown, so he thinks it's fine to eat steamed buns every day, but he doesn't feel full eating rice.

People from the south, including Wang Aiguo, generally said they love to eat rice.

Just as everyone was having a lively discussion, Wang Aiguo suddenly noticed that the two young men from Henan who had just entered were not saying a word. Wang Aiguo was a little puzzled, so he asked them, "Why aren't you saying anything? Do you prefer steamed buns or rice?"

The two young men from Henan smiled awkwardly, then said to Wang Aiguo, "We Henan people... eat noodles."

Everyone: "..."

Good grief, they even forcibly added another option.

.......

During the first week of recruit camp, everyone would go down to collect their spare equipment whenever they had a chance. They used everything, from pots and pans to uniforms and hats.

When the dark blue training uniform was delivered, Wang Aiguo's eyes instantly turned red.

Everyone saw that Wang Aiguo's eyes were red, and he adopted a solemn and dignified posture. Then Huang Gang approached Wang Aiguo and said earnestly, "Big Fatty, you must protect us from now on."

Wang Aiguo paused, then turned to look at Huang Gang with a strange expression and said, "I'm protecting you? What am I protecting you with?"

"Stop pretending. Look at you, getting this excited just seeing a military uniform, plus the build of you. You probably need connections to even get in!"

After Huang Gang finished speaking, everyone in the dormitory nodded in agreement, as if they had seen the son of a high-ranking official.

"Holy crap, so you guys judge family background based on weight?"

"Then explain why you were so excited when you saw the military uniform?" Xiao Ma sneered.

Wang Aiguo snorted inwardly and said disdainfully, "If you cut a hole in the captain's projection screen and sewed it into your pants, and then you wore those pants every day in front of the instructor and captain, let's see if you'd be nervous, scared, or excited when you saw the new uniforms."

Of course, Wang Aiguo could only swallow these words; he couldn't say them aloud, otherwise his secret, which he had kept hidden for a week, would be exposed.

....

As soon as the uniforms arrived, the recruit camp instantly transformed into a bustling marketplace. Everyone excitedly rushed into the piles of clothes and began scrambling for them.

Although each person receives two sets of training uniforms and no one takes more than one, the most important thing is to choose the right size.

In the military, the ideal size is 170-88 or 175-92.

The first number represents height, and the second number represents chest circumference. 170-88 means clothing for someone who is 170cm tall and has a chest circumference of 88cm.

Of course, these clothes have nothing to do with Wang Aiguo. He doesn't need the standard size; he needs extra-large sizes.

Wang Aiguo frantically rummaged through the pile of military uniforms like a wild boar, making three in-and-out attempts before finally confirming one thing—there were no military uniforms here that he could wear.

This is an embarrassing fact, Wang Aiguo thought to himself. Would he be kicked out of the army because he didn't have a suitable uniform?

Just as he was in a dilemma, Jia Qu appeared behind him.

Wang Aiguo's face lit up with joy, and he quickly said, "Jia Qu, have you found someone suitable for me...?"

"You should retire from the army," Jia Qu said solemnly before Wang Aiguo could finish speaking.

Wang Aiguo: "...Well, I think I can still salvage this situation, like getting a custom-made set made for me or something."

"The fabric used to make one set of your clothes could make three of mine," came Sanpang's voice from afar.

"I was insulted about my body shape today. I'll remember this grudge. When I weigh 300 pounds, I'll definitely crush that person." Wang Aiguo took out a small notebook in his mind and wrote this down.

.......

Finally, Jia Qu said to Wang Aiguo, "Although there aren't any suitable ones here, other teams might have some. Here's what we'll do: go find the team leader and instructor and ask them to help you coordinate a few sets of uniforms from other teams."

"Okay!" Wang Aiguo happily went upstairs to find Grandpa Bi and the instructor.

Grandpa Bi and the instructor shared a dormitory room, and at that moment, they were organizing the new recruits' information. Just then, their dormitory door opened.

Then, through the door, the two saw a huge figure.

Wang Aiguo looked at the two of them awkwardly, then said, "Report."

"The door's already open, what's the point of your report?" Grandpa Bi looked at Wang Aiguo with a sarcastic tone.

Wang Aiguo felt wronged; this had nothing to do with him. He had knocked on the door, but it was ajar. Perhaps he had used a little too much force, because when he punched it, the door opened directly.

This wasn't something he did on purpose.

"Alright, you're already inside. What's the matter?" The instructor stopped the conversation from escalating and relieved Wang Aiguo's embarrassment.

So Wang Aiguo smiled and talked to Grandpa Bi and the others about his military uniform.

After listening to Wang Aiguo's words, Grandpa Bi, though displeased, eventually nodded.

"Alright, I'll take you to look for other teams. By the way, you really need to lose weight, or you'll be discharged sooner or later."

"Definitely, definitely." Wang Aiguo smiled and turned to leave with Grandpa Bi.

He had barely turned around and hadn't even left the house when he heard the instructor's chilling voice behind him: "Wait a minute!"
