Chapter 516 I’ll give you a salary increase next month
This man is usually out of tune, speaks viciously and harshly, and always mixes the truth with true and false jokes.
But she didn't expect him to be so attentive and remember every word she said.
Remember the gifts she introduced.
Her implicit and shy emotions were made so clear.
This moment.
She confirmed once again that this man was her soul mate.
After hearing this, the soldiers looked at Chen Jinyue with indescribable emotion in their eyes.
Some ideas are deeply ingrained.
They all knew that Miss Chen was a good friend of His Highness.
Being able to help them and support them is already a great blessing.
It's not something they can afford.
They never imagined that their small token of appreciation would be so treasured and preserved.
Also said...
Are they each a unique friend?
My heart felt hot, as if something was about to burst out.
They subconsciously glanced at Jiang Qian'an and saw that he was smiling, obviously in agreement, so someone took the lead in introducing himself.
"Miss Chen, my name is Yang Yingsheng! I used to be General Xiao's deputy general. Now, General Xiao has promoted me to be in charge of the army's security and daily training!"
"Miss Chen, my name is Sun Liang. I'm in charge of the food and fodder logistics. I was the one who led the team to collect the goods!"
"Miss Chen, my name is Jia Shanming..."
Everyone rushed to report their names and positions.
Even if they know that the other party treats them as friends, they still remember their status and rules, and turn their self-introduction into an introduction to their family.
But Chen Jinyue doesn't mind.
Moreover, she was not affected by their hierarchy at all and really treated them as friends.
I continued to ask who sent those gifts.
When this was mentioned, everyone felt a little embarrassed at first, after all, it was really too cheap.
Until Xiao Chengyu joked to himself, saying that they were very poor at that time and it was difficult for them to come up with decent gifts. Now that Chen Jinyue is getting married, he will definitely prepare a generous gift.
Chen Jinyue was just about to speak and say that the storage ring he had given as a return gift was too expensive and asked him not to spend any more money.
Then Jiang Qi'an said faintly, "Your generous gift is just a way to get money from somewhere else?"
Xiao Chengyu's defenses were immediately broken. "Your Highness! How can you expose my shortcomings like this? This is my first time meeting Miss Chen, and you don't even give me the slightest bit of respect?"
If he had known this day would come, he would never have been so shameless.
The valuable treasures were all taken from His Highness's study and Sang Heyuan's shop.
"Besides, we military commanders are all poor! Isn't it normal for me to be frugal?"
“…”
Regardless of whether it was normal or not, everyone always felt that their gifts were not enough, and now was the perfect time to find a reason to explain.
Then someone solemnly agreed, "Who says it's not true? I'm so poor that I only wear one coat for three years. I just love staying in the barracks. There's no need for extra clothes in the barracks!"
"Oh my god, you still have a coat? I can only keep warm by doing drills in the winter!"
"I only have this pair of military boots now, which Miss Chen gave me a while ago!"
"Me too. The greatest wealth I have now is all generously given by Miss Chen! Of course, I prepared the gift myself, although it's not expensive."
“???”
Xiao Chengyu's face was full of question marks.
No, isn’t it okay for everyone to cry poor?
Why are we back to the gift again?
You prepared it yourself, so didn’t I prepare it myself?
He stared at the deputy general with murderous eyes...
Listening to these bickerings, Jiang Qian'an felt as if he was back at the border, and the corners of his lips curled up unconsciously.
His voice was filled with a smile, interrupting their war of words, "Alright, I know how hard it is for military commanders, so I'll give you a raise next month!"
A group of people were joking around, but unexpectedly there was a surprise.
Great news!
If they had known that His Highness would be the crown prince and was so generous, they should have sent him up earlier!
It's weird to feel like your brother has become very successful and one sentence has changed your destiny!
"Thank you, Your Highness. Your Highness is wise!"
Xiao Chengyu took the lead.
Then the words "Your Highness is wise" were heard one after another.
Chen Jinyue also joined in the fun and followed suit. "It just so happens that the factory recently received an order for thermal clothing. I asked them to make an extra batch and give it to everyone as a return gift."
After a pause, he said, "We'll also prepare a batch of military boots for everyone."
Everyone, "!!!"
The way they looked at Chen Jinyue suddenly became more passionate.
I am even happier than just getting a salary increase.
After all, it is thermal clothing, light and warm, and it cannot be seen when worn under armor.
I shivered at night when I no longer had to stand guard.
And those military boots, non-slip and strong, can increase a lot of attack power...
"Thank you, Miss Chen!"
"Miss Chen is generous!"
"Miss Chen is simply our adopted parent!"
“…”
Once a group of people become familiar with each other, they can flatter others more easily and just open their mouths.
Xiao Chengyu scolded them with disdain, "Look at your useless character!"
Jiang Qi'an raised his eyebrows slightly, a little surprised. Has General Xiao changed his ways? Would he refuse such a stubborn man? Or would he give him money?
Then Xiao Chengyu turned around and bowed to Chen Jinyue respectfully and seriously.
"Miss Chen, if you need anything in the future, just let me know. I, Xiao Chengyu, will go through fire and water for you without hesitation!"
“…”
Everyone was speechless.
Jiang Qian'an laughed, thinking he had overestimated him.
The last table to leave the military camp's banquet lasted for several more hours until late at night.
Everyone was originally thinking about tomorrow's training, so they were restrained tonight.
Didn't drink too much.
But when Chen Jinyue came over, no one could stop him.
Several deputy generals were completely drunk and fell asleep on the table.
Xiao Chengyu was rational after all. He wanted to stay awake and remember everything that happened tonight, so that he wouldn't wake up tomorrow and think it was all a dream.
And he was busy the whole time, adding some charcoal to the fire, getting a mat, blanket, etc.
I'm worried that a group of grown men won't be able to take good care of me.
So I was still awake at the end...
Seeing that everyone was drunk and Chen Jinyue and the other two were about to leave, he consciously said, "I'll just drop you off here. It's too late. My mother is still waiting at home and must be worried. Miss Chen, Brother Zhou, see you next time if we're lucky."
His original intention was to avoid them actively, not knowing how they came.
After all, there must be a special way for Chen Jinyue to come here.
There are some things he cannot know.
However, Chen Jinyue was slightly surprised when he heard this.
"Madam Xiao hasn't rested yet?"
Xiao Chengyu answered honestly, "My mother waits for me to come back every night. She can't sleep well without seeing me."
Just when Chen Jinyue came, he asked his servant to pass on the message that he would be back later tonight.
Let her rest first.
But even so, every time he went back, Old Madam Xiao would still come out to greet him.
Thinking of this, he suddenly realized.
Miss Chen is having a wedding today and has come here specially to thank the guests. I guess she also wants to see her mother, right?
After all, she had come here specially tonight wearing the clothes her mother had sewn...
"Miss Chen, if you have time, why don't you come to my house and have a visit?"
He took the initiative to extend the invitation.
Chen Jinyue smiled and said, "No need, we've already been there."
Xiao Chengyu, "???"
