Chapter 23 The boss wants to save face

"No... I'm not familiar with it!"

Lu Chen blinked and scratched his head helplessly.

Feng Shuo looked at him and said, "Then how do you know she has a lot of luggage?"

"Isn't my sister-in-law's family a red capitalist? Brother Shuo, when you were filling out your marriage application, I secretly took a look and was wondering if the military compound could accommodate the luggage of a capitalist daughter. Otherwise, when we get back, I'll bring my brothers to make a few wardrobes for my sister-in-law."

"Do you still have time to clean the wardrobe?"

Feng Shuo didn't respond to his words, but asked again and again, which finally made Lu Chen recover.

He touched his nose and felt a pang in his heart, thinking that he seemed to have said something wrong.

I’ve known the boss for so many years, and I’ve never even seen a female mosquito around him!

Living on the edge of a knife, licking blood every day...

Not to mention the possibility of a narrow escape from death, there is definitely the possibility of an eight to eight death situation!

After finally reaching the age where his partner could get married, the eldest brother immediately submitted an application as soon as the marriage documents were sent over. He must have been extremely anxious.

But the boss always wants to save face!

Can a cold-faced soldier easily say that he misses his wife?

cannot!

I can only think about it secretly in my heart!

It takes a lot of courage to say it to someone's face.

It's over, it's over.

What if the boss was originally going to go, but didn't get off the boat in Haicheng because I was too talkative? Then he would have to wait many days to see his sister-in-law!

Pooh!

Let you talk too much!

Lu Chen slapped himself in the face in his mind.

What capitalist daughter, what luggage and clothes, what wardrobe...

What’s it to you!

Be careful and go back to let you keep watch in the woods and feed the blind bear directly as a snack.

Ding-ling-ling——

When the dinner bell rang on the boat, Lu Chen felt relieved and ran away.

When he returned to the company, the first thing he did was to inform all his brothers that they must never mention his sister-in-law in front of the regiment commander!

Chief Feng must be a jealous person!

He just said a few words and then asked three questions.

If I say a few more words, I feel like I'll be thrown into the sea to feed the sharks.

Feng Shuo stood against the light, staring at Lu Chen's fleeing back, his eyes dimmed.

He pinched the telegram in his pocket. Zhu Yunying started talking about Brother Feng...

The thin Adam's apple rolled inexplicably.

…

Haicheng University Family Housing Campus.

Jiang Yiming looked at the table full of chicken, duck, fish, meat, and a wide variety of vegetables and fruits, and his jaw dropped.

Plump and savory braised pork with preserved vegetables.

Crispy and fragrant fried peanuts.

Old hen soup simmered in a casserole.

Slice of roast duck served with dipping sauce.

A plate of braised wild crucian carp with fragrant sauce.

Steamed fresh sea bass with only ginger and garlic.

"Come on! This is a great harvest!"

Zhu Yunying brought out a large steamer, on which were placed chopped sweet potatoes, pumpkins, yams, potatoes, and corn segments.

"And a gathering of heroes!"

It was a vegetable salad with thick salad dressing. It would be too embarrassing to just serve a carrot at the meeting.

"Yun Wei, how much money are you going to spend on tickets? What are you going to do with so much?"

As Jiang Yiming spoke, his eyes began to blur.

How could I not know!

Zhu Yunying was as kind-hearted as her mother, and wanted to give this lonely old curator some warmth before his departure.

Or maybe the Feng family will repay the favor and take her back to be their grandson's wife.

Just bully him because he has no grandson!

He doesn't even have a son!

Only students.

Jiang Yiming secretly wiped away his tears and muttered, "It's too much, extravagant."

"Oh! I was wondering what was missing! Uncle Jiang, I'll go get some orange soda! You can drink two bottles with me!"

Zhu Yunying couldn't bear to see the person she cared about in tears, so she scratched her head and turned to leave.

When I reached the door, I saw the student who had been helping Jiang Yiming.

"Want to go out?" He asked, holding an orange soda in his hand.

Zhu Yunying glanced at him and raised her eyes calmly: "Well, we don't have enough soy sauce at home!"

"Then I'll go with you." The young man put the orange soda at the door and turned to follow. "I'm the student that Director Jiang brought from Beijing. You can call me Xiao Wu."

Xiao Wu?

Zhu Yunying's mind raced several times, but she couldn't remember this character in the book.

It seems that after she changed the direction of the plot, the characters in the book also had new connections.

Even the nameless NPCs gradually have their own story lines.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yunying was full of confidence in the Northern Frontier troops she was about to join!

She smiled brightly: "Yes! You can call me Yunwei."

“…Yun Wei.”

As the setting sun shone, the tips of Xiao Wu's ears turned slightly red.

But Zhu Yunyao walked too fast and didn't notice it at all.

There was a lot of noise outside the supply and marketing cooperative.

There was a large group of people surrounding him, and the scene was similar to the day when he traveled through the book.

"Xu Hansheng, how can you still have the nerve to stay in the supply and marketing cooperative after doing such a filthy thing? If people buy enamel cups that you've touched, will they dare to drink water from them when they go back?"

The one who spoke was still the woman selling candy.

She placed one hand on her hip and said in a domineering tone, "My brother has passed all the tests! He even has a medal for bravery! He's so much better than you!"

Wow!

So exciting?

Zhu Yunying gradually slowed down her pace, hesitated, and pricked up her ears to listen!

Just when she thought she had hidden it well, she heard the salesperson exclaim, "Or ask the wife of our Haicheng leader! Did you, Xu Hansheng, steal someone's watch and refuse to return it?"

Everyone behind him looked at him curiously.

Xiao Wu whispered, "Ignore them."

Zhu Yunying curled the corner of her mouth, turned her head and looked at Xu Hansheng, whose face was pale.

The down-and-out scumbag had a flash of panic in his eyes, thinking that Zhu Yunyao would take advantage of his misfortune.

But she let out a cry, laughed loudly, and raised her hand and shook it.

"My watch was perfectly fine on my wrist. When was it stolen? If you want to steal someone's job, show your true abilities! You're dragging a soldier's family into this. Do you want to get tea with the reform team?"

"I...I don't have it!" The candy salesman felt embarrassed and spat.

When Xu Hansheng heard Zhu Yunying coming to his rescue, surprise suddenly appeared in his eyes and he took a step towards her.

It happened so fast——

Zhu Yunying raised her hand and pointed at Lu Fangfang, who was silent in the crowd, and gave her a thumbs-up. "Comrade Lu, you're amazing! Comrade Xu was so seriously injured, and you took care of him for just a short while, and he was able to be discharged from the hospital! I wonder if there's some secret prescription?"

Lu Fangfang's face flushed red as she stared at Zhu Yunyao in shock, unable to believe how she knew that?!

Zhu Yunying complained in her heart, all of you heroines are full of skills!

For a poor wretch like me who has traveled through a book, the only consolation I have is a portable space that can never be fully filled.

"Yun Wei, Fang Fang only brought me some folk remedies, nothing else. At that time, I didn't pay attention to you. Are you...are you okay?"

Xu Hansheng took a step forward and wanted to chat with Zhu Yunying without even looking at Lu Fangfang.

Zhu Yunying looked at Lu Fangfang's face, which turned pale again.

Xu Hansheng is still moving forward.

Xiao Wu stood in front of her.

"What's going on with the supply and marketing cooperative? The leader's wife is being harassed even when she's shopping. Are there any rules? Does this count as destroying unity?!"

The director of public security was too lazy to care about the matter of stealing his job and kept hiding at the back. When he saw Xu Hansheng dared to get close to Zhu Yunying, he was so angry that he rushed over and pushed him away.

"Aren't you still in the hospital? What are you doing here? Go back and have a good rest, and don't make any more trouble! Otherwise, you'll lose your job!"

"director……"

Xu Hansheng begged for mercy humbly. He couldn't lose this job, or he would be demoted...

Zhu Yunying looked at his disheveled figure like a dog, and saw that the red armbands of the reform team had already reached the front, and finally smiled.

Xu Hansheng, ah Xu Hansheng, how could you not go to the countryside!

The red armband is personally delivered to you!

…

Carrying soy sauce and orange soda, Zhu Yunying and Xiao Wu returned to the family compound.

Jiang Yiming had already calmed down, but when he saw the two of them come in, he started to scold them: "Dinner is already served, and you're still running out! The food is getting cold!"

"You can eat it first if it's cold."

Xiao Wu muttered.

"You're so disrespectful!" Jiang Yiming glanced at him and said unhappily, "Open a soda for Sister Yun."

"Sister Yun? Director Jiang, you're calling Yun Ying old."

In front of his own people, Xiao Wu did not show any of the arrogance and domineering behavior he had at Zhu Mansion, and his ears kept turning red.

"You dare to talk back, kid? Believe it or not, I'll kick you back to Beijing!"

"Come on! If you can kick me back to Beijing, the Chinese national football team will invite you to be the head coach, and we'll be able to go global next year!"

Xiao Wu played a blind eye and let the matter of calling someone sister go.

Seeing that the master and disciple had a good relationship, Zhu Yunying gradually felt relieved.

Director Jiang was the best person to her after she entered the book, and she was grateful to him.

"...Yun Yao, if the Feng family treats you badly, just tell Uncle Jiang! Uncle Jiang's life was saved by your mother! He will definitely take good care of you."
