Chapter 450 Leaders Visit
After the two came out of the barber shop, they went to the farmers' market.
After buying what needed to be bought, we returned to the military compound.
Even Lin Anan was not very clear about which leaders would come tonight, but the person who could make Chu Mingzhou treat him so seriously must be no simple person.
Lin Anan went back to the house, changed her clothes, and took the child from Zhao Xiangjun.
"I'll go help my aunt."
"Don't……"
Before Lin Anan could finish her words, Zhao Xiangjun had already rolled up her sleeves and went into the kitchen.
A diligent person can't sit idle for even a moment.
Looking at the sleeping baby in her arms, Lin Anan's heart felt weak.
She pecked him lightly on the face and put him on the small cradle beside her.
The fan was blowing at its lowest speed, and the fan blades made a buzzing sound as they turned overhead, making the shadows of the wild chrysanthemums on the windowsill sway.
Lin Anan simply started fiddling with the sewing machine and took out the newly bought skirt to alter it.
Midnight.
As the dusk deepened, orange-red rays of light leaked through the gaps in the clouds, dyeing the chimneys in the distance amber. A few sparrows returning to their nests flapped their wings and flew over the wall, startling a series of tiny trembling sounds.
The sentry post of the military compound is already in sight, and the silhouette of the armed sentry turns into an inky black monument in the setting sun.
"Grandpa Zheng, please."
Lin Anan never thought that Commander Zheng would come back with Chu Mingzhou.
Behind Commander Zheng were Commander Xu and Mr. Tan.
this……
One is the head of the Northwest Military Region, one is Chu Mingzhou’s elder, and the other is Lin Anan’s immediate superior.
"The leaders are here? Come in and sit down."
"Thank you very much. Comrade Liu, you have worked hard to prepare this meal."
"It's not hard, it's not hard, it's a daily routine, the leaders are too polite."
Lin's mother had just finished preparing the last dish and they could start eating as soon as it was served on the table.
Zhao Xiangjun discussed with Lin Anan and decided to take Zhuangzhuang home and send him back early the next morning.
Lin Anan naturally agreed. The boss came to her house to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival, which obviously meant that he had something important to discuss. It was okay for her to take care of the child for one night. Anyway, Chu Minglan and Chu Mingyu were both with Lin Zihuai, and the two families lived next door, so they could keep an eye on each other.
Lin's mother secretly packed two lunch boxes of food for Zhao Xiangjun, and also brought some clean diapers and clothes for Zhuangzhuang, and then sent her out.
After the food was served, Chu Mingzhou took out the fine wine from his private collection.
"These dishes are all made in our hometown of Suzhou. Leaders, please try them and see if they suit your taste."
“It looks good.”
"Try the rice dumplings again, they are fresh out of the pot and still steaming!"
Needless to say, Mother Lin's cooking skills were excellent and everyone nodded their heads as they ate.
At first, they only talked about trivial things. It was not until three rounds of drinks that Commander Zheng took the lead and mentioned the matter of letting Lin Anan be the accompanying translator at the end of July.
"This central meeting is very important. It not only concerns the follow-up military supplies of the Northwest Military Region, but also the international situation."
Lin Anan subconsciously sat up straight, restrained her smile, and looked serious.
"I heard that the provincial newspaper invited you to do a column interview?" asked Commander Zheng.
Lin Anan nodded quickly, "Yes, the column is called 'Military Medals on the Tip of the Pen', and I am attending as a writer."
Commander Zheng waved his hand indifferently, "It's good to show your face more and make yourself known. You can follow me to Kyoto without fear. Let those foreign devils know that people from our Northwest Military Region are not simple, even if they are translators."
Lin Anan was shocked. Was she going to Kyoto again for diplomacy this time?
"Yes, I will definitely behave well."
Mr. Tan pushed up his glasses and said, "Two translators are going to go, and for the other one... I plan to arrange for Ning Jian to go with him."
Commander Zheng frowned visibly, and finally hummed lightly, "Xiao Ning's English is not bad, let's choose him."
Lin Anan searched in her mind. Ning Jian? She had some impression of him, but he was often posted abroad and rarely stayed in the Northwest Military Region. She was not very familiar with him.
Actually, translators are not important roles for a military region, and the greatest demand is in the intelligence analysis department.
However, when you have a large number of language skills and your abilities are strong enough, it will become a big advantage.
Just like now, when attending such important occasions involving multinational diplomacy, Lin Anan becomes the first choice.
After all, there is no one else like her in the military region. Not only does she master multiple languages, but she is also flexible and has excellent coping skills.
"This central meeting will have leaders from many countries visiting and exchanging ideas. It's not easy!" Commander Zheng exclaimed.
Multinational communications mean that she not only has to face high-intensity translation work, but also has to deal with the turbulent international situation.
Lin Anan glanced at Chu Mingzhou.
I saw indescribable worry in his eyes.
She reached under the table and squeezed his large hand in a reassuring gesture.
Chu Mingzhou shook it back, clasped his fingers together, and then released them.
Lin Anan poured herself a glass of wine, stood up, and handed it to several leaders, "Please rest assured, leaders, I will definitely be fully focused and complete the mission!"
"Hahaha, okay."
A smile appeared in Mr. Tan's eyes. "The battle you fought for Xiaomai was very beautiful. All you need to do is show your spirit."
"yes!"
By the time the meal was over, the moon was already high in the sky.
Captain Xu silently left the money and tickets behind before leaving with Commander Zheng and the other two.
Lin Anan also understood the purpose of their visit today.
First, she was officially notified to attend the central meeting and serve as an accompanying translator.
Second, it explains the general situation that will be encountered during this trip to Kyoto. It is not enough to just follow the leader, but you have to be able to adapt to the situation. Especially when it comes to diplomacy, you have to be fully prepared and not be timid, as this concerns the face of the Northwest Military Region.
Thirdly, it is a good thing for her to spread her reputation, so that all parties know that even if she is just a translator in the Northwest Military Region, she will have a good reputation.
In short, all words and actions are for the country and the military region.
The Northwest is remote, and the conditions in the Northwest Military Region are not as good as those in other areas. However, the Northwest Military Region has a large number of soldiers and is located on the border, so it needs a lot of military supplies, and we must strive for them in order to have better development.
After seeing the leader off, Lin Anan stood alone in the yard, staring at the sky in a daze.
Chu Mingzhou walked behind her and put his arm around her waist: "What are you thinking about? You are so absent-minded."
"The moon is beautiful tonight."
There is a waxing moon in the sky, like a silver hook hanging obliquely in the inky night sky. The moonlight is shallow, not as bright and dazzling as the full moon, but it has a kind of implicit tenderness, sprinkling on the green tiles and white walls, adding a layer of hazy beauty to the world at midnight.
Chu Mingzhou only glanced at the moon and determined that his mother-in-law could not see him from where they were standing. He immediately leaned over and kissed her, accurately capturing the softness of her lips.
"Hmm~"
Lin Anan was kissed so hard that she felt dizzy. She raised her hand and patted his chest to show her rejection.
I ended up slapping my hand and it hurt...
How come this guy’s chest is harder than steel?
Chu Mingzhou was also stunned!
We have been sleeping in separate beds for so long that he is worried about her.
Why would I get beaten for just kissing?
Where is my sweet and soft little wife?
