"Hurry up and get out of here. If you dawdle, you'll be back very late. We're inviting your comrades over for dinner later!"
She still remembered this matter; Xing Jianguo and Comrade Su Xiaole had helped them, so they definitely needed to treat them to a meal to express their gratitude.
The two of them went out hand in hand and went down to the first floor.
"Battalion Commander Lan, is this the new bride going out?" A middle-aged woman greeted Lan Yuchu with a smile.
Lin Qiyue looked over and saw that he was wearing glasses and had a smile on his face.
She was a very thin woman who looked to be in her forties.
"Auntie, I'm showing Qiyue around. When did you get back?" Lan Yuchu was very respectful to women.
"I just got back yesterday. I only found out from my husband that you brought your wife to join the army?" he said, while looking Lin Qiyue up and down.
Lin Qiyue also sized up the woman in front of her.
Lan Yuchu said to Lin Qiyue, "Qiyue, this is Huang Lanying, the wife of our military region's political commissar. She is also the quartermaster of our logistics department."
"Hello, Auntie!" Lin Qiyue greeted her immediately with a smile.
Huang Lanying is nearly fifty years old, and she manages the entire logistics department.
In fact, she had known all along that Lan Yuchu was going to bring his wife to accompany him to the army, since everything had to go through her hands.
Previously, everyone said he had a child bride, but no one expected that this bride would be so beautiful and lovely.
Her husband also said that the two of them were childhood sweethearts, not a child bride.
Moreover, the woman's biological parents are both people of high status.
"To think he's so good-looking, Battalion Commander Lan is truly blessed!" This was the truth.
The fact that the two are holding hands clearly shows that they are very much in love.
Lin Qiyue felt secretly pleased to be praised.
She knew exactly what she looked like.
I've gained weight recently and started paying more attention to skincare, which has made me look more radiant.
"Auntie, if you keep praising me, I'll really get proud!" Lin Qiyue didn't hide the fact that others were praising her.
If it were a typical girl, after being praised, she would definitely humbly say that it wasn't true.
However, Lin Qiyue readily admitted it and cleverly deflected the compliments from others.
"It's only right to be proud. Girls should be confident. You can't always have a gloomy face, it's so unsightly." Huang Lanying has always been an optimist, and she really likes confident and cheerful girls.
"Auntie, please don't continue, or July will really get proud."
"What's wrong with being a little proud? You've married such a beautiful wife, you should be even more proud."
Huang Lanying couldn't help but tease Lan Yuchu.
Lin Qiyue nodded in agreement, "That's right! What Auntie said really enlightens me, and I feel even more proud now."
"Look at you, kid~, never mind, I have to go back first, I can't chat anymore!"
Despite the conversation, Huang Lanying had official duties to attend to and other matters to attend to, so she briefly ended the topic.
"Then you go ahead with your work, I'll be going now." Lin Qiyue tactfully ended the conversation.
The two walked out of the residential compound together.
"Battalion Commander Lan, taking your wife out for a walk?"
The other women were chatting under a tree when they saw Lan Yuchu leading Lin Qiyue out, and they greeted them politely.
"Yes, I'm taking my partner out to get acquainted with the surroundings," Lan Yuchu replied generously.
Seeing the way they were looking at her, Lin Qiyue nodded slightly and greeted them, "Hello, sisters-in-law, my name is Lin Qiyue. Please take care of me in the future."
Everyone smiled and nodded at her.
I watched as the young couple left the residential compound.
That look in his eyes was just like the gossip center at the village entrance.
Little did they know, Lin Qiyue had already become the center of their gossip.
Ding Wen's letter of self-criticism is still posted on that blackboard, and everyone can see it clearly.
"I heard that Battalion Commander Lan and his wife are childhood sweethearts. They are indeed a perfect match. He is polite, generous, and confident."
"That's right, I heard that Luo Li from the cultural troupe stopped Battalion Commander Lan in public yesterday and questioned him about why he wouldn't get a divorce!"
"I heard that Luo Li is such a troublemaker! I heard that Battalion Commander Lan's wife works as a clerk in a factory in Pingcheng. She has a respectable job and a very high salary! If it weren't for Luo Li's previous tantrum, Battalion Commander Lan might not have been willing to bring his wife here."
"Maybe it's because Battalion Commander Lan couldn't stand being alone and had an affair?" Some of the women also thought that Lan Yuchu was involved.
This statement immediately sparked two different interpretations.
In fact, most people don't really like Luo Li from the performing arts troupe, so they think that Lan Yuchu and Lin Qiyue have a good relationship, and some people are rational about this.
The young couple walked to the bus stop to wait for the bus. Since it wasn't the weekend, there weren't many people.
"Are you hot?" Lin Qiyue fanned herself with one hand, but she was very weak. She had been sweating a lot after only a few steps, so Lan Yuchu asked her worriedly.
Lin Qiyue nodded and said, "It's a bit hot, but it's okay, it'll be fine once we get in the car."
"I'll buy you a fan after we get to town," he thought, the weather was really too hot.
"Yes, it's so hot!" Lin Qiyue looked at the people not far ahead, who were all enjoying the shade under the trees.
The children were eating ice cream and fanning themselves.
If you have a refrigerator at home, making and selling some jelly should be quite profitable.
However, Lin Qiyue quickly rejected this idea, as she couldn't withstand the wind and sun.
There's nothing we can do; she's too pampered. We're not poor enough to afford that.
