Chapter 146: Guilty Conscience
"Deputy Captain Su's wife, are you okay? Why do you look so bad? Otherwise, you should not go there and just rest at home." A kind-hearted military wife saw that she looked so bad and spoke with concern.
Yang Tao didn't want to go back. This bus to town only runs once every ten days or half a month. She had been waiting for a long time. If she missed it, she would probably have to wait another ten days before she had another chance.
"No, I'm fine, just feeling a little uncomfortable." She answered with an embarrassed smile.
At this moment, the military wives around her began to discuss Li Yiyi and her son who were walking behind them.
"See? That's Captain Jiang's wife and son. I really can't tell. The head of Captain Jiang's family is quite good-looking. I heard that she came from the countryside. How come she doesn't look like a rural girl at all? Instead, she looks like someone from the city, so clean and fair."
"Guess what I saw when I passed by Captain Jiang's house yesterday?" A military wife looked at everyone with a mysterious smile on her face.
Everyone's interest was immediately piqued by her. They couldn't wait, and with gossipy eyes flashing, they chased her and asked, "What did you see? Tell us quickly. Do you want to make us anxious to death?"
"I saw Captain Jiang washing clothes in the yard. Washing clothes, a man washing clothes. Anyway, my man has helped me do this once in all the years I have been married to him."
"Captain Jiang actually does this when he returns home. I can't believe he is such a good family man." A military wife said with envy.
Li Yiyi, who finally came over with Xiaobao, had no idea that the group of military wives in front were talking about their own family affairs.
At this moment, she was listening to Jia Chunhua complaining, "We are still too late. We will be squeezed again when we go to town today. Last time, I was almost thrown off the bus by them. After we get on the bus, I will help you look after Yueyue while you take care of Xiaobao."
Li Yiyi interrupted her with a smile, "No need, Sister Chunhua, I forgot to tell you, yesterday Jiang Hong knew we were going to town and said he would drive us there, we just need to wait for him here."
Upon hearing this, Jia Chunhua slapped her thigh with joy and shouted, "Really? That's great! Captain Jiang is really amazing. He was able to borrow a car to take us there. He's not like the guy in my family. He doesn't have much ability but is full of trouble."
Li Yiyi smiled and was about to say something when she suddenly saw a military green jeep driving towards them.
Just when she was wondering whether the car was driven by Jiang Hong, the jeep actually stopped not far in front of them.
When the car horn sounded, Li Yiyi curled her lips and said to Jia Chunhua, "Sister-in-law Chunhua, let's go over there. He's over there."
Such a large jeep parked not far away naturally attracted the attention of the military wives who were queuing.
Some of the military wives who Jia Chunhua usually chatted with stopped her out of curiosity when they saw the two of them going that way.
"Oh, it was Captain Jiang who heard that his wife was going to the town to buy something, so he specially borrowed a car from the army to pick up the three of them, mother and son, to the town. I just took advantage of Jiang's wife." She said loudly.
When everyone heard this, some of them were curious and asked people around them, "Why can Captain Jiang borrow a car to drive out, but my family can't? Last time I wanted to go to town to see a doctor, I wanted to ask him to borrow a car to take me there, but he said he didn't have the right to do so."
A few wives of soldiers who knew something said proudly, "You don't know this, right? Commander Jiang is a favorite of our leaders. He has made many contributions. If he hadn't made contributions so quickly and hadn't been promoted so quickly, he would have been promoted to an unknown position. Let alone borrowing a car, even if he wanted to borrow a plane, I think the higher-ups would approve it."
Yang Tao, hiding in the crowd, listened to these people's conversation and looked at the jeep parked in front with jealous eyes.
At this time, Jiang Hong came down from the jeep to help carry his son into the car, and considerately held the door to let Li Yiyi get in.
Before these people could finish speaking, a jeep left the military area before them.
As soon as they got on the bus, the two children excitedly sat here and there in the car to look at the scenery on both sides.
Jia Chunhua looked at Jiang Hong who was driving in front and quickly thanked him, "Captain Jiang, thank you so much. If you hadn't driven to the town, I would have had to squeeze into the car going to purchase with everyone else."
Jiang Hong smiled and said to her politely, "Mrs. Xu, you don't have to be polite. Old Xu and I are comrades-in-arms and good brothers. You don't need to say thank you for such a small thing."
Jia Chunhua felt comfortable after hearing what he said, and decided that she would ask her husband, Mr. Xu, to learn how to speak from Captain Jiang someday.
Otherwise, every time she talked to her husband, Mr. Xu, she would be pissed off and in the end nothing was resolved.
Jiang Hong looked at his wife and children sitting in the car through the mirror in the car, and a happy smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
An hour later, the jeep finally arrived at the town filled with the atmosphere of fireworks.
Jiang Hong drove the car to the door of the supply and marketing cooperative and said, "You go down and buy things first. I'll come to find you after I park the car."
After letting his wife, children and others get out of the car, Jiang Hong drove this somewhat conspicuous jeep to park elsewhere.
Li Yiyi was about to hold her youngest son's hand when her arm was bumped by Jia Chunhua beside her. Then she could be heard speaking in a low voice, "Sister-in-law Jiang, did you see that? Several female comrades are secretly looking at your man."
When Li Yiyi heard her say this, she couldn't help but take a look at the place she mentioned, and found that there were indeed several female comrades with red faces secretly looking at the direction where Jiang Hong left.
"Don't worry, your husband Jiang is a good husband and a good man. I can see that he only has you as his wife in his eyes and will not have any bad thoughts about other women." Suddenly Jia Chunhua whispered to her seriously.
Li Yiyi smiled with a confident light in her eyes, "I don't have the courage to leave him alone." After saying that, she took her youngest son's hand and walked towards the supply and marketing cooperative in front.
Jia Chunhua held Xiao Yueyue's hand and heard her words with envy, "It's good to be young."
When I walked into the supply and marketing cooperative, I happened to see vegetables being sold at a big discount there, and it was crowded with people.
Li Yiyi quickly held her son's hand and looked at her daughter behind her. Fortunately, the little girl was also afraid and kept holding on to the corner of Jia Chunhua's clothes tightly.
"Sister-in-law Jiang, we are so lucky. We happened to catch the vegetable sale here, and we can buy it without a ticket. Xiao Yueyue, you hold the baby. I will go and help you grab it. You just look after the two children." After Jia Chunhua inquired, she ran over excitedly and said.
