Chapter 16



As the response was delayed, Director Liu's face became darker and darker, while Ji Jianguo was secretly happy.

Previously, he felt that sending his two daughters to the countryside was not cost-effective. Not only would he not receive any betrothal money, but if they married into the countryside and ended up marrying off a peasant, who would then drag his in-laws along to suck his blood, he would be in a lot of trouble!

So he asked his two daughters to prepare false medical records and kept them at home to be sold at a good price.

But this is a different time. He was led astray by 付柔 before, and was beaten by that beast so hard that his brain short-circuited and he actually engaged in feudal superstition! It almost killed him!

Now, after the guidance of Captain Chen, the beast sent her to the far northwest to starve. Isn't it wonderful?

Ji Jianguo couldn't hide the smile on his face. He wished that Ji Wanqing and Director Liu would have a fight and that he would be sent directly to a labor camp to do hard labor every day to relieve his hatred!

Just as Director Liu was about to speak with a gloomy face.

Ji Wanqing said righteously: "Leader! Our motherland is in a state of disrepair and needs to be rebuilt. It is our unshirkable responsibility as young people to go to the countryside and build new rural areas! How could I refuse!"

Director Liu looked better: "Then take your household registration booklet and let's go to the Youth Office to fill out the registration form now."

Ji Wanqing shook his head: "But Director Liu, I also want to be an educated youth and receive re-education from the poor and middle peasants, but I am powerless now, so I can only refuse."

Ji Jianguo interrupted: "Director Liu, don't listen to this girl's nonsense! She has not been sick in the past two years, she just wanted to avoid going to the countryside!"

"Really?" Ji Wanqing said with a faint smile, "Who prescribed the case to me, and which staff member filed it? A good comrade like me cannot tolerate any injustice, and I will not feel at ease until I report these two quacks and termites."

Ji Jianguo choked up and changed his words: "…She was really ill, but she is definitely well now. If you don't believe me, take her to the hospital for a checkup. She will definitely be alive and kicking! One punch can kill a cow!"

Director Liu put his hands behind his back and threatened, "Comrade Ji Wanqing, avoiding labor is not a good thing. I will give you another chance. Do you want to go to the countryside?"

Ji Wanqing said with a smile: "Director Liu, I'm really not trying to avoid work! My grandpa arranged a marriage for me before he passed away. In the past two years, I was not yet an adult, so I stayed with my dad for a while. Now that I've grown up, it's time to fulfill his old family's last wish."

Ji Jianguo jumped up and said, "Nonsense! How come I don't know that you are married?"

She shrugged, "Grandpa ordered it. I only found out about it before his parents left."

Director Liu remembered Captain Chen's instructions and frowned, "It's just an engagement, not a marriage. If everyone uses your excuse to fool the Youth Educated Office, how can we carry out our work?"

Ji Jianguo agreed: "That's right! Don't even think about refusing!"

Ji Wanqing said innocently: "Ah, but my fiancé is the commander of the 1st Battalion of the 113th Regiment of the 73rd Division of the Ontario Military Region. He said he will report the marriage immediately. Is that not okay?"

“…”

"!!"

Director Liu looked unhappy.

If the other party is a private squad leader, the matter must be handled by Captain Chen.

But he had relatives in the army, and he knew that the 11th unit was the main force of the military region, and her fiancé was a battalion commander. If he really made trouble for the higher-ups, he would suffer the consequences!

"You're talking nonsense!" Ji Jianguo's heart was pounding. "How could you have a fiancé who is a battalion commander? Why didn't you tell me before?!"

Ji Wanqing looked innocent: "Dad, you never asked before?"

Ji Jianguo had a mouthful of blood choking his throat.

He was the battalion commander of the main regiment! Given the attitude of the old father-in-law who doted on a beast, it was absolutely impossible for him to introduce a jerk who was a few years older than her!

For a promising battalion commander in his twenties, wouldn't it be easy for him to be promoted to regiment commander or brigade commander in the future?

When he gets old, won't he have a teacher son-in-law? !

Director Liu frowned, and after a while he said, "Comrade Xiao Ji, we can't just listen to your one-sided story. We have to confirm it first."

Ji Wanqing nodded: "Of course, let's go and confirm it by phone now."

I don't feel guilty...

That's impossible.

But before he left, grandpa praised his fiancé over and over again. As long as she speaks quickly enough, the other party will help her cover up the lie... right?

Among the places with landline phones these days, the Educated Youth Office was one of them.

Under the gaze of several people, Ji Wanqing dialed the military district's phone number.

This number was originally written by my grandfather to the original owner, but the original owner lost it long ago.

Thanks to her now having a brain like a projector, she can flip the number from her memory.

"Hello, I'm looking for Comrade Jiang Che, the commander of the 1st Battalion of the 113th Regiment."

The operator on the other end said: "OK, I'll transfer you to the 113th Regiment Party Committee Office right away."

Soon, a voice came from inside: "Hello, I'm Instructor Zheng from the 113th Regiment. Who are you?"

"Hello, Coach Zheng, I'm looking for Comrade Jiang Che."

"Comrade Jiang Che is currently studying in the Beijing Military Academy. It is not convenient for him to contact the outside world. If you have anything to say, you can tell me."

What a coincidence?

Ji Wanqing hesitated for a moment: "Well... I am Comrade Jiang Che's fiancée. I called to ask him when the marriage announcement will be made."

Zheng Guidance was confused.

Coach Zheng was silent.

Coach Zheng was shocked.

"Oh my god! That guy said he had a fiancée, and I thought it was just a rejection! I didn't expect it to be true!"

The phone was on speakerphone, and with Coach Zheng's words, Ji Wanqing knew the matter was settled.

Ji Wanqing said shyly, "Yes, it was arranged for us by my grandfather when we were children, and there is also a token of love."

"Yes, yes, Xiao Jiang also said that it was an arranged marriage by the elders."

After the shock, Commander Zheng was still a qualified patriarch and asked with concern: "Comrade Xiao, have you encountered any difficulties? Why did you suddenly call the military region?"

Director Liu's back stiffened, and he quickly came over and smiled flatteringly: "Coach Zheng, I'm the director of our Yunhe Youth Office, my last name is Liu."

"There is some misunderstanding about this matter. You also know that it is a national policy for urban youth to go to the countryside to receive re-education from poor and lower-middle peasants. We also found out from the census that Comrade Xiao Ji was unemployed and unmarried, so we came to her house to mobilize her."

Coach Zheng understood and said meaningfully: "Then now..."

Director Liu said righteously: "It is of course impossible to ask Comrade Xiao Ji to go to the countryside as an educated youth now! Our soldiers are on the front line to protect our country, and the wives of soldiers are guarding the rear for them, which is also a contribution to the country! They are all serving the people, not limited to the countryside or the military area!"

Instructor Zheng was very satisfied with Director Liu's understanding: "Okay, Comrade Xiao Ji, Xiao Jiang will finish his training in half a month. You should write a letter of introduction, pack your luggage, and come to our military region first. He can catch up with him when he returns. He will have a week's leave when he returns, which is just enough for you to hold a wedding."

“…”

ah?

Is it just right?

Is there no room for detours and just going straight to the wedding?

She was also thinking that if Jiang Che didn't suit her taste, she would withdraw to Yunhe to make time difference with the educated youth office, find a job in the city first, and then continue to torture the old man of the Ji family.
