"Yes, it's her. I heard from others that she has been cleared of the label of 'five black categories' and has also received a second-class merit medal from the military region."
"What? She's so famous!" Xue Ningnan gripped the phone handle tightly. She never expected that the person she had always looked down on would have such great abilities.
"And, and..."
"What else? Tell me!"
“I saw them hosting a banquet at the military canteen today, so I went to inquire about their situation. I also heard that the commander’s wife wants to take Luo Jingyan as her goddaughter.”
"What!!!"
Xue Ningnan's initial shock immediately turned into utter astonishment.
"She...she's going to become the army commander's goddaughter!"
Good heavens, what a precious opportunity she let go of! If she had known that Luo Jingyan was so capable and lucky, why did she have to break them up and anger them in the first place?
If she has a good relationship with Xue Yanchen and Luo Jingyan, having such a capable younger sister-in-law would only benefit her and Song Qingsong.
Xue Ningnan felt a chill run down her spine and dared not recall the foolish things she had done in a moment of folly.
"Ning Nan, Ning Nan."
Song Qingsong on the other end started urging her, saying that phone calls were so expensive and he didn't know what she was doing without saying anything.
Xue Ningnan immediately said, "Qingsong, do you think I can also go with you to the army? I can't find a job here, but if I go to your place, maybe I can find a job."
Song Qingsong immediately agreed: "Okay, I'll go apply for a house with the leader right now."
"good."
Xue Ningnan hung up the phone and returned home, but she did not immediately pack her things to leave.
Song Qingsong still needs to apply for a house. Once the house application is approved, she will go to join him in military service.
military region
Mr. and Mrs. Xue both held important positions in their respective workplaces, and Xue Ningyu also had a job in Beijing. In the afternoon, they said goodbye to Luo Jingyan and Xue Yanchen and took the train back to Beijing. Mrs. Xue was reluctant to leave and stayed in the military region.
There are very few weddings in the military region. Even in the evening, the military wives were still playing with their children. Several soldiers who had just left were about to come back, as they were going to make a ruckus in the bridal chamber that night.
After the military wives and their children left, Xue Yanchen and Luo Jingyan finally had a moment of peace and quiet. They were both exhausted and lay down on the bed to rest for a while.
"Honey, this is more tiring than training or fighting a war."
"Really?" Luo Jingyan also felt very tired. After all, she had spent the whole day dealing with guests, so it was inevitable that she would be tired. "Then you must get a good rest tonight."
Upon hearing the last sentence, the man instantly sat up in bed, looking refreshed and shaking his head with a smile: "Honey, I'm not tired, not at all. You could make me run ten kilometers right now. But I need to save my energy, since we have something very important to do tonight. We can do whatever we want tonight, as much as we want."
As he spoke, he rubbed his hands together; he had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
Luo Jingyan smiled and said, "Let's talk about it tonight."
Grandma Xue had prepared the meal in the kitchen and came to call them: "Have some food first."
"Um."
But before they had finished their meal, those who had left not long ago came rushing back.
When they saw Xue Yanchen and Luo Jingyan eating, they teased, "How can the groom let the bride eat by herself? Aren't you going to feed her?"
Grandma Xue cooked noodles for dinner, and Xue Yanchen handed the noodles he had chosen to Luo Jingyan's mouth: "Wife, eat."
With so many people watching, Luo Jingyan felt embarrassed, and those people started to tease her again.
"If the bride isn't eating, it must be because the groom isn't feeding her well enough. Why don't I do it?"
Xue Yanchen glared at him: "Get out of the way!"
Luo Jingyan then took a bite of the noodles, which made the soldiers happy, and they cheered.
After Xue Yanchen finished feeding Luo Jingyan, they had Luo Jingyan feed Xue Yanchen. The two of them spent more than half an hour just eating.
After that, a group of people pushed them into the new house.
Chen Zhengdong took an apple out of his pocket, which was tied with a red string, and held it up in front of Xue Yanchen and Luo Jingyan.
"These apples were specially sent to me by my mother from our hometown. They're a local specialty. There's a legend in our hometown that says if newlyweds eat these apples together on their wedding night, and they finish them in half an hour, they'll have one child; if they finish them in twenty minutes, they'll have two; if they finish them in ten minutes, they'll have three; and if they finish them in five minutes, they'll have four."
As soon as he finished speaking, the other soldiers started jeering again.
"Eat apples, eat apples, eat them quickly, your sister-in-law gave birth to four in one pregnancy."
Xue Yanchen didn't mind them making a scene with her. She looked at Luo Jingyan, who didn't seem to mind either.
The thought of his child with his wife filled him with joy.
Several more military wives came to watch the commotion, standing at my door watching and laughing, with their children beside them, some playing in the yard, and some watching the excitement inside the house.
Chen Zhengdong held the apple in mid-air: "Brother, sister-in-law, come and bite it. Let's see how long it takes you to finish this apple."
They all stood there, stunned and motionless. The soldiers then began to push Xue Yanchen toward Luo Jingyan, while the military wives also came to help push Luo Jingyan, urging the young couple to bite the apple together.
Xue Yanchen and Luo Jingyan didn't resist much, partly because they didn't want to spoil the fun for everyone, and partly because they enjoyed this way of kissing.
Unsurprisingly, every time they tried to bite into an apple together, Chen Zhengdong would play a trick, deliberately lifting the apple up or putting it down, trying to prevent them from biting it and instead making them kiss.
