Chapter 349 Infiltration
Jiang Zhizhi was somewhat surprised. This road also led to government offices, and no matter what happened, it would be dealt with quickly in the first instance. It was impossible for so many people to be watching.
The current level of congestion is definitely due to a long delay, since there are very few cars on the road now, and it wouldn't be this congested in a short time.
Zhou Xiye had composed himself and gently pulled down Shang Shang's hat, asking, "Shang Shang, why are you sweating so much? Are you too hot?"
Jiang Zhizhi looked back and reached out to pull the small blanket off Shang Shang a little: "Just cover her tummy, she'll be fine when she wakes up."
She handed Zhou Xiye a soft little towel, saying, "You wipe her down."
Zhou Xiye took a small towel to wipe his daughter's sweat. Jiang Zhizhi changed her position and hugged her son, leaning over to look. She whispered instructions to wipe his chubby little chin as well: "Children's skin is delicate, otherwise it will easily get sores."
The two discussed it in hushed tones, and didn't pay any more attention to the car accident outside.
When the car arrived at Jingshan Park, the driver stopped at the park entrance, got out to open the car door for Zhou Xiye and Jiang Zhizhi, and only after they got out of the car with the child did he ask, "Deputy Division Commander Zhou, would you like me to come in with you?"
Zhou Xiye thought for a moment and said, "No need. Go find a place to park first, and come pick us up in an hour."
After the driver drove away, Jiang Zhizhi and Zhou Xiye carried their child into the park and found a bench under a cherry blossom tree to sit down, watching the people who came to stroll in the park.
Jiang Zhizhi then told Zhou Xiye about school: "After graduation, most people were assigned to various hospitals in Beijing. It seems that Jiang Donghua also stayed in Beijing, but I don't know which hospital. Sister Qinghua went to the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Peking Union Medical College Hospital, and she was so excited."
"However, I think Sister Qinghua will definitely become a very good and excellent obstetrician and gynecologist in the future, because she encountered many difficult symptoms when she delivered babies in the countryside. She compiled these symptoms while she was in school and even published a book."
Zhou Xiye followed her words and praised, "Yes, she is also very outstanding."
Jiang Zhizhi then mentioned Jin Huaiying: "Teacher Jin is back at school as a teacher now, but his health is not very good. He has suffered too much over the years, and his body is severely depleted, the kind that can't be made up for. His wife and children also refuse to come back."
“I went to see Professor Jin a couple of days ago, and he seemed to be in a bad mood. I guess his wife sent another letter, refusing to let him come back.”
“Previously, Teacher Jin took the initiative to cut off contact with his wife and children because he didn’t want to involve them, but he kept trying to secretly send them money. I thought that after this matter was over, the family would be reunited. But Teacher Jin’s wife disagreed to come back… I guess she didn’t want to live with Teacher Jin anymore.”
Zhou Xiye declined to comment on Jin Huaiying's private life: "Over the years, life is bound to have changed..."
Jiang Zhizhi changed the subject: "I've been listening to the radio lately, you must be careful... Also, don't easily sympathize with any prisoners, not even women and children! If you spare their children, their children will come and kill your children."
Zhou Xiye paused for a moment, then turned to look at Jiang Zhizhi: "You can just say it directly."
Jiang Zhizhi's eyes widened. Was what she said so hard to understand? Since she had already said this much, she might as well make it clear: "Womanly compassion is the biggest taboo in war. Also... I recently heard the news and I have a small suggestion. The border environment is complex. If we advance straight in, we must leave a way out. Otherwise, once we are trapped, we will not be able to come back at all."
Zhou Xiye was silent for a moment, then nodded: "I will remember."
He knew that Jiang Zhizhi knew far more than he had imagined.
It was less of a suggestion and more of a reminder.
Jiang Zhizhi smiled, her eyes crinkling, then looked up at the pedestrians on the street and started gossiping again: "Look at those two, they must have just gone on a blind date. They're too embarrassed to walk side by side, and that girl is lagging far behind..."
Zhou Xiye glanced at it casually, not really caring.
Jiang Zhizhi suddenly remembered: "Oh right, Song Man got married to a doctor and settled in the south. Li Simin came back on her wedding day."
Zhou Xiye was a little surprised: "Then... wouldn't Li Simin be unable to accept it?"
Jiang Zhizhi thought about Li Simin's reaction: "It seems okay. Brother Simin looks very calm, and he feels that his current work situation can't give Sister Song Man a stable life, so it's better to let go and let Sister Song Man be happy."
Zhou Xiye wasn't sure and couldn't comment.
Jiang Zhizhi was about to chat about something when Xiao Zhou woke up lazily, opened his eyes, and grinned at Jiang Zhizhi.
She just woke up, and her double eyelids are even more pronounced, making her even cuter.
Jiang Zhizhi felt Xiao Zhouji shiver and quickly carried him to the flower bed to pee.
After Xiao Zhou finished urinating, Shang Shang woke up. Zhou Xiye, now more experienced, carried Shang Shang to the nearby toilet.
After they came out, the two of them took the child out again, found a canteen, asked for hot water, made milk powder for them, and when they returned to the park entrance after eating and drinking their fill, the driver was already waiting at the entrance.
It was still early, and there was no queue at the photo studio. We took a family photo smoothly and also took a picture of the two children together.
Zhou Xiye, a first-time photographer at a photo studio, asked, "Can you expedite the printing? I can pay extra."
The driver said helplessly, "Comrade, it's not about the money. We follow the procedures. It will take at least five days. No matter how anxious you are, you can only wait."
Disappointment flashed in Zhou Xiye's eyes; it would be a long time before Jiang Zhizhi sent it to him.
Moreover, if the defense changes recently, they might not receive the cards.
Jiang Zhizhi smiled and comforted her, "Actually, we can ask Cui, the propaganda officer in the compound, to take a few more pictures for us. They'll definitely be ready to be developed before you leave."
...
After leaving the photo studio, the two took their child home.
As they approached the gate of the compound, Zhou Xiye said, "I'm going out for a bit and will be back quite late, so don't wait for me for dinner."
Jiang Zhizhi casually asked, "Who are you going to see? Should I save some dinner for you?"
Zhou Xiye thought for a moment and said, "No need to stay, I don't know what time I'll be back."
Jiang Zhizhi glanced at Zhou Xiye, who avoided the topic of who to go see...
After arriving home, Zhou Xiye first asked the propaganda officer to come and take photos, and then called Fang Hua and Zhou Chengyu to take photos together.
Zhou Chengyu couldn't help but mutter under his breath, "If I had known, I would have just called Officer Cui over to take the photos, and I wouldn't have had to go through all this trouble."
Fang Hua quietly tugged at her, signaling with her eyes not to talk nonsense.
After taking the photos, Zhou Xiye saw Cui off and urged him again, "I'm leaving in four days, could you please develop the photos in advance?"
Officer Cui smiled and patted the photos: "No problem, I'm almost out of film, I can develop them tomorrow... Deputy Division Commander Zhou, when I was filming the promotional video before, I unintentionally took a few photos of your wife and children, do you want them?"
