Logically speaking, they were the first two to ask for leave, but before they got their leave approved, Li Xiaoya rushed in and overtook them. She got her leave approved first and left, leaving only the two of them. How could they not be anxious?
If the commander is unhappy and doesn't approve the leave, then they will have to stay in the barracks miserably and won't even be able to attend the opening ceremony of their wife's clinic. How miserable that would be!
As soon as Chen Sibin finished speaking, Bo Mu Nian beside him echoed.
"Yes, Commander. You've already approved two days of leave for Li Xiaoya. Could you please approve two days of leave for us as well? Our wives are opening their clinics, and we need some free time to help out."
Before coming here, I thought that I had asked for leave too frequently during this period, so I didn't dare to ask for too much. I only asked for one day's leave on the leave note. But with the appearance of Li Xiaoya, Commander Liang approved a two-day leave note, which opened up the idea of asking for leave for both of them.
They both went to Dekang Clinic to attend the opening ceremony. Li Xiaoya was able to take two days off, so as the husband of the clinic owner, they should also be given two days off. They can't favor one over the other.
Commander Liang gave Chen Sibin and Bo Munian a cold look and said coldly
"You two are dreaming, you two brats! We gave Li Xiaoya two days off because she's made progress during this time and has matured while working with your wife on her business venture. We gave her an extra day as a reward, and you two still want two more days off. Why don't you just go to heaven?"
Bo Mu Nian: “…”
Chen Sibin: “…”
Isn't there a precedent for this? They didn't dare ask for too much, just two days of vacation, so why did the commander treat them so seriously?
As expected, in the commander's eyes, they and Li Xiaoya are biased towards each other.
The two grown men immediately stood at attention, straightened their backs, and stood in front of Commander Liang's desk, not daring to breathe, for fear that their superior would be unhappy and not even give them a day off.
Commander Liang picked up the pen again, looked at his two silent subordinates, and continued.
"Since your wife is setting up a new clinic, I'll grant you two a day off!"
They both: “…”
So I was able to take a day off because someone approved it for my wife's sake. But no matter what, the leave was finally approved, which is a good thing.
Having said that, Commander Liang was not surprised to see a hint of joy flash across the faces of the two grown men, and continued.
"But I've got to make it clear to you guys. This is just one day off. Whether you're helping out at the clinic or going back to miss your wives, you must return to the team after one day. You're not allowed to stay in North City for any reason. I have a mission for you when you return."
Hearing this, Chen Sibin and Bo Munian immediately stood at attention, tapped their military boots, saluted, and said in unison.
"Yes, sir!"
It’s good to have a vacation. As for carrying out missions, that’s what soldiers have to do!
The next day, the sun was shining brightly, a rare day of good weather. Zhong Chuchu and Ruan Wanxin got up early in the morning. The rest of the staff had also been notified in advance that they had to go to work early today because the new clinic was opening, and everyone had to be extremely alert. Mrs. Zhou came over early in the morning and worked in the kitchen of the old clinic, quickly making a large table of breakfast. Zhong Chuchu and Ruan Wanxin were busy with the opening of the clinic, and their husbands were confined to the army, so they stayed in the dormitory of the old clinic.
By the time the two of them got up and washed up, all the employees in the clinic had arrived and were sitting at the dining table waiting for the two bosses to come and have breakfast together.
When Zhong Chuchu and Ruan Wanxin came over, Mrs. Zhou had already brought out the last plate of steamed dumplings and greeted Zhong Chuchu and Ruan Wanxin.
"Chu Chu, Wan Xin, breakfast is ready. Everyone is here. We can start eating."
Because the new clinic was opened, all the new employees had smiles on their faces, and their work morale was unprecedentedly high, as if they had been injected with chicken blood. Xiaoxiang, Li Liang, and Ma Zhen were especially noteworthy. When they looked at Zhong Chuchu and Ruan Wanxin, there was an indescribable fighting spirit in their eyes.
When Zhong Chuchu and Ruan Wanxin walked to the dining table, the three of them stood up at the same time and quickly served breakfast to the two bosses.
Because the opening of the clinic was a happy occasion, Mrs. Zhou was very thoughtful and prepared several flavors of breakfast, including sesame rice balls, soft-boiled eggs, steamed buns, steamed dumplings, millet porridge, spicy noodles, and noodles with sour dried beans and minced meat. The table was filled with all kinds of things.
Zhong Chuchu and Ruan Wanxin were both little girls who loved sweet things. Xiaoxiang, Ma Zhen, and Li Liang politely served them sesame dumplings and soft-boiled eggs, and said in unison.
"Sister Chuchu, Sister Wanxin, let's have breakfast!"
Perhaps too eager to impress their boss, Xiaoxiang, Ma Zhen, and Li Liang each held a bowl of sesame glutinous rice balls with a soft-boiled egg. Zhong Chuchu and Ruan Wanxin were alone, and for a moment, they didn't know which one to take the delicious treat from.
Fortunately, the deadlock was quickly broken by two tall men who walked in from outside. Bo Munian and Chen Sibin walked in from the clinic covered in dust, and happened to see the awkward scene of three employees serving breakfast to the two female bosses. Bo Munian immediately spoke to break the deadlock.
"You're really early! What a coincidence! I was planning to rush over for breakfast, but I just happened to catch it. It just so happened that three employees were serving breakfast to your boss at the same time. I happily accepted the extra bowl!"
As he spoke, he took the bowl of sesame dumplings and soft-boiled eggs from Li Liang's hand, leaving only the two bowls of dumplings in Ma Zhen and Xiaoxiang's hands. Ruan Wanxin and Zhong Chuchu took over.
Chen Sibin, on the other hand, sat down at the dining table carelessly, glanced over, and his eyes quickly swept from the sweet breakfast to the savory breakfast. He looked at the noodles with sour cowpea and minced meat and said something.
"This minced meat noodles looks good. I'll have a bowl!"
As he was speaking, someone picked up a bowl and prepared to serve him a bowl of mixed noodles, but Chen Sibin waved his hand and took the bowl and chopsticks and walked over to serve the noodles, speaking as he served.
"Hey, everyone, don't be polite, just eat your own food, I'll do it myself!"
As he spoke, he quickly served a bowl of noodles and sat down in front of Ruan Wanxin. He looked at the young wife tenderly, and while no one was paying attention, he quickly approached Ruan Wanxin, kissed the young wife on the cheek, and started to eat.
Ruan Wanxin: “…”
You are so capable! A big bowl of noodles can’t fill your mouth, and you have to kiss me, making my face full of saliva and my makeup white!
As expected, when there is a man at home, life can’t be too refined.
