Chapter 1777 Wasn't it said that the old surnames in the Papal States are very conservative?
Even the most obtuse soldier in the National Defense Army knew what the little girl wanted just by looking at her pleading words.
So, with a wry smile, he took out some candy from his pocket and handed it to the little girl, saying carefully as he did so.
"Kids should eat less candy, and don't get too excited when you get candy, or you might fall down and suffer the consequences!"
After explaining everything, the soldier returned to his post and continued his guard duty.
The little girl skipped away after receiving the candy.
Over the past year, she has gone from being shy and timid at the beginning to taking it for granted now.
In the little girl's eyes, these soldiers of the National Defense Force were no different from ordinary middle-aged men.
Despite their tall and burly appearance, they are actually just kids who never grew up.
The little girl had secretly seen soldiers of the National Defense Force playing with children's toys more than once.
Last time she went to the city to accompany her family to the market.
I had just left the store with my father late at night.
In the darkness, four or five soldiers of the National Defense Army were seen quietly having fun in a park.
The problem is that these soldiers from the National Defense Forces weren't using the exercise equipment; instead, they were secretly playing with a rocking horse left behind by a child.
You can imagine four or five burly men taking turns riding a wooden horse.
This scene is too beautiful to imagine.
So in the little girl's eyes, these soldiers of the National Defense Army were just a bunch of big boys.
Moreover, these soldiers of the National Defense Force are truly good people.
They never expect anything in return for helping others.
In the beginning, the remnants of the Vatican were brainwashing the people, saying that the National Defense Army was a bunch of bad guys who burned, killed, and looted.
The little girl initially thought the National Defense Forces were a bunch of bad guys, but she witnessed it all with her own eyes.
She witnessed firsthand how the village was developed and improved, and how everyone in the village was living a better life.
Her parents no longer had to worry about food, and as a girl, she also had the opportunity to go to school.
Moreover, the girls were no longer taught by so-called clergy, but by a group of older brothers and sisters from Lyongrad.
These older brothers and sisters make learning very interesting.
These older brothers and sisters formed a stark contrast to the priests of the Vatican.
The priests always acted like everyone owed them 200 million.
These older brothers and sisters are not only beautiful and kind-hearted, but they also always help children from impoverished families.
From these older brothers and sisters, the little girl saw what a truly good teacher is.
Most of these young men and women who came to teach in Lyon responded to the call of the local community.
Because the current Great Yan simply doesn't have enough energy to promote all-round development in morality, intelligence, physical fitness, aesthetics, and labor.
For children in developing regions, Lyon's only requirement is that they master the language and basic arithmetic.
Choose one subject as your major, based on your Chinese and mathematics background.
For example, you can choose geography, history, or biology, physics, and chemistry.
Learn whichever interests you.
Of course, the main reason Lyon didn't develop comprehensively was because it was poor.
There's no way around it; everything in the Great Yan Dynasty costs money these days.
Lyon cannot select top talents through exam-oriented education.
He can only acquire a large number of capable talents by casting a wide net.
Although these people are not all-rounders, they are at least all-rounders.
Even a triangular warrior is still a warrior!
Upon hearing that the National Defense Army was hosting a feast, the villagers, without any hesitation, immediately began bringing stools and chairs to the village entrance.
They set up a feast right at the entrance of the village.
The cook's mouth twitched when he saw this.
Goodness, are you all so outgoing? Aren't the people of the Papal States supposed to be very conservative?
In reality, the cook had no idea how small the ordinary people in front of him were...
Soon it was time to eat.
The soldiers of the National Defense Army sat down together under the command of their company commander.
All the food was served.
After consulting with the company commander, the village chief ordered the villagers to get to work.
At first, the villagers ate very discreetly, taking small bites, but later they started eating large, hearty bites.
Anyone who didn't know better would think he had just been released from prison.
At first, everyone thought it would be a pleasant mealtime.
But after they had eaten and drunk their fill, the villagers started acting strangely.
A large group of middle-aged and elderly women began to approach the soldiers of the National Defense Army, intentionally or unintentionally. Taking advantage of the soldiers' breaks during their meals, they started to strike up conversations.
"Hey young man, you're really handsome! Hey, let me tell you, I have a pretty daughter at home, how about I introduce you two?"
The soldier who was eating almost fell to the ground when he heard this.
Then, he looked at his class monitor in a panic.
But he didn't expect that the class monitor was being surrounded by three middle-aged women at that moment.
There's no way around it; soldiers in the National Defense Forces are in high demand, let alone squad leaders and officers.
The class monitor looked at the several middle-aged women around him, and his face darkened.
These middle-aged women have no sense of propriety when it comes to their words.
The situation with the company commander is even more terrifying.
Seven or eight middle-aged women surrounded the company commander, trying to sell their daughters.
The company commander's face turned green.
The reason is simple: he has a girlfriend!
Not only that, the woman also called her child out while she was making her sales pitch.
What was supposed to be a simple armed patrol, with soldiers and civilians having a meal together, turned into a large-scale matchmaking event.
Just as the company commander was about to order the troops to retreat, the political instructor suddenly grabbed him.
"Hey, you do have a girlfriend, you're in a relationship, but none of the brothers are! Look at your men, how many of them are in relationships? Forget about marriage, they haven't even held a girl's hand."
As their company commander, aren't you worried about your men?
The instructor's words silenced the company commander.
The company commander glanced at the matchmaking scene behind him and spoke impatiently.
"Whatever, I don't care anymore!"
With the company commander's tacit approval, the villagers behind him became even more enthusiastic.
"Hey, ma'am, don't push it!"
A squad leader from the National Defense Army turned pale.
Dude, why did you start fighting?
Is there no justice or law?
