"Uncle Hong, my mother said that you are my father's best friend, and you are very generous with your actions. The red envelopes are always the thickest... How about I give you one?"

Jiao Ping'an was actually secretly taking a look at Hong Tao's broken face. It would be unfair to say that he was not afraid at all. But he had a kind of 250 energy in his bones, which made Lin Na's fear disappear in front of outsiders, and she stood upright.

Her chest took a big step forward, and she started to hold on to her neck for red envelopes.

"You're the one who teaches children like this. If you just ask for them on the street, you're crazy!" Hong Tao is extremely thick-skinned when dealing with adults, and he can't stop talking nonsense. But when he meets children, he must behave like an elder.

The playful smile is no longer serious.

"What counts is what you get in hand. I don't want to be Randy, who came all the way here without even having lunch. Xiaona, kowtow to Uncle Hong together with your brother!" Lin Na was not embarrassed at all.

The son failed to play a decisive role and pushed the daughter forward.

"Come on, I can't afford to mess with your family. Come on, this is the most famous knife in Xinjiang Province. Boys over there have to wear one when they reach the age of fifteen to show that they are adults.

I see that you have extraordinary bones and extraordinary abilities. You are definitely better than other children. It is not too early to wear one at the age of twelve. If anyone dares to bully you in school in the future, don’t be afraid if you can’t beat him. Just stab him with a knife!

"

I had prepared the red envelope a long time ago, but I just didn’t want to follow other people’s rhythm. But seeing that the two children were about to kowtow in the street, I couldn’t help but endure it. But the blessing sent out with the gift was not the original word, it was called revenge.

Stay overnight, even children are no exception.

"Is Aunt Pei's paratrooper knife any good?" Jiao Ping took the knife and looked at the exquisite patterns and inlays on the scabbard as if he wasn't too interested. He pulled out the blade and looked at it with a look of disdain.

"You two are quite ahead of their time, starting military training at such a young age?" This surprised Hong Tao. In his mind, Lin Na and Jiao Qiao were both guardians of calves. It was believable to say how much they doted on their children, and that they would train their children to endure hardships and endure hardships in advance.

Really unreliable.

"When we were young, we were both busy and couldn't go home for more than a few days a month. Lao Jiao and Ping An often lived in the military camp, while I and Jiao Na lived in the ministry. It became normal after we went to elementary school. Some people

They only find faults and never ask how much effort we have put in to get the league to where it is today."

Hearing this question, Lin Na's smiling face showed a trace of sadness. It seemed that she was introducing the child's growth experience, but in fact, the voiceover was directed at a certain person.

"Come on, Jiao Na, this is a shepherd's pup. It's just one month old. Take it home and train it well. It must have enough exercise every day so that it will be healthy when it grows up." Hong Tao pretended not to hear and turned around.

Benzhu took the wicker basket and handed it to Jiao Na who was eager to try it.

Judging from the body shape, the younger sister is half a head shorter than the older brother, which is a bit abnormal. Girls develop earlier than boys. For twelve-year-old twins, the younger sister is often taller than the older brother.

In the past, I didn't know the growth experience of the two children just by listening to Zhang Ke's introduction, but now I finally understand. Jiao Ping'an grew up with Jiao Qiao in the military camp, so he has gone through preliminary tempering, and at least he has enough exercise.

And Jiao Na grew up with Lin Na. As a mother, she doesn't like sports very much. It's surprising that the daughter she raised is healthy. Jiao Na is not stunted, but lacks exercise.

If it were anyone else, Hong Tao could educate her through hard words, but it would be absolutely useless to Lin Na. She would not let herself get involved in disciplining her children. Then she could only use pets to achieve the goal in disguise, and follow the puppy every day from now on.

Let's have fun together.

"Thank you, sir...does it have a name?" Jiao Na opened the wool blanket in the wicker basket and saw the plump puppy. She was not only satisfied but also surprised. The fearful look she had just turned into a smile.

The resident took the initiative to chat.

"Its name is...Zolo!" This puppy was only temporarily found from immigrants from Xinjiang Province. Who knows if it had a name before. But Hong Tao didn't want to disappoint the little girl, so after a little hesitation, he named the Spanish national hero.

Set on the dog's head.

"Alas..." Lin Na sighed softly at the same time. She knew that this dog wouldn't have a nice name, and sure enough, after ten years, this dog's name-making ability still hasn't improved much.

"Hey, who is this? More powerful than you?" As he spoke, there was movement in the east again. Two teams of cavalry turned onto the main street with neat steps. The leaders were two pure black tall horses, which were a bit far away.

, can’t see clearly who it is right away.

"Your good grandson and Deputy Minister Zhang are blind. The cavalry is useful in fighting, but it is far inferior to the air service regiment in dealing with security incidents." Lin Na didn't even look at her. She tilted her head and knew who was coming.

"Isn't it just a private meeting? Is there any need to make such a big fuss?" The number of cavalry is more than double that of the military police of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Every time they pass by a place where people can come and go, they leave three or four guards behind. Obviously not all of them are there.

To show off.

Both Android and Apple are available.】

"You are not afraid of death, but others are! If someone wants to harm the alliance, it only takes one rocket or a grenade to paralyze most of the government. It's not strict."

Lin Na curled her lips and signaled Hong Tao not to be intoxicated with himself. These military police and cavalry were not specifically here to protect the so-called justice of the self-administered region, but to escort the alliance government officials.

"Grandpa Hong, Happy New Year, here are the red envelopes!" The two horses gradually quickened their pace. Zhang Ke, who was wearing a military uniform, jumped off the horse first and trotted over to salute a military salute. It was stylish, but in the blink of an eye he smiled playfully.

He came up with his hands.

"How old are you and you still want red envelopes? Don't make fun of me! Minister Zhang, we haven't seen each other for ten years. You are old. Look, the jade trees still looked like they were in the wind." Hong Tao pulled Zhang Ke's hand away.

, took two steps forward and met Zhang Tao.

"Even if you are not married, you are considered a child, so you must give a red envelope! Aunt Lin, is that true?" But Zhang Ke still had something to say, so he stopped in front of Hong Tao again, stretched out his hands and continued to ask.

"This is all nonsense. If I never get married, can I still ask for red envelopes when I turn eighty?" It's not that Hong Tao doesn't want to give it, but he really isn't prepared for Zhang Ke's share.

"As long as you call someone grandpa, of course you have to give it! People who celebrate the Chinese New Year don't prepare red envelopes. This is too stingy!" But Zhang Ke didn't give up and stood between Hong Tao and Zhang Tao.

"...Okay, okay, stupid pig, take out your gun! Here, don't you like to collect weapons? These are the first batch of automatic pistols made in the self-administered zone, and I also participated in the design. Be good, and play while you do it.

Don't interrupt the adults talking!"

There was no way, people who were celebrating the New Year couldn't hit people in the street, so Hong Tao could only transfer Benzhu's gun to him. If you want it, if you dare to talk nonsense, you will be shot on the back immediately.

"Captain Hong, I should have come to visit you earlier..." Zhang Tao was not as comfortable as Zhang Ke, and his expression was a little embarrassed. Since Hong Tao came back, he is one of the few senior figures who has not taken the initiative to visit you. At this time

No matter how I explain it, it seems insincere.

"Hey, let's not be too polite. People who come may not really want to come, and people who don't come may not really want to come. It's a sign of maturity that you can take the overall situation into consideration. But I have to ask, do you

Are you married?"

Hong Tao's impression of Zhang Tao is still from the days of the rescue team. Ten years have passed, many people have changed, including him. The Deputy Minister of Armed Forces and Jiao Qiao do not belong to the same faction, and their relationship is also unclear.

Not close.

Zhang Tao does not have a clear attitude in terms of political views. He is neither a royalist nor a reformist. Sometimes he leans to the left and sometimes he leans to the right. But if you want to say that he is a centrist or a fence-sitter, Landi will not admit it either.

It is more objective to describe it as a school of its own.

However, being able to gain a foothold in the alliance government with many factions is more difficult than being a coward or being a wallflower. The reason why you can do this is really based on your ability.

Especially in terms of reservist training, he is second to none. He is responsible for the compilation of many training codes in the alliance army, including recruit training manuals.

No matter who is the Minister of Armed Forces, he will not turn a blind eye to such a deputy candidate who can handle half the workload. At this time, his identity as having no faction and no clear political opinions has actually become an advantage.
