Jianghu looked up from behind his desk and gestured for Wang Qiang to sit down.
His face was serious, but his tone was still gentle: "Comrade Wang Qiang, you are a qualified soldier, and I hope your wife is also a qualified military dependent."
The men in his unit were mostly veterans who had fought their way up from the battlefield, and he didn't want their wives to ruin the glory they had earned with their lives.
Wang Qiang nodded and said, "Yes, I will definitely keep her in check and guide her to become an excellent military wife."
Political Commissar Jiang sighed, "I don't expect her to be outstanding, I just hope she won't hold you back."
Wang Qiang knew that Political Commissar Jiang was concerned about him, so he nodded and explained, "She sacrificed so much for my family. She married me when she was sixteen and joined the revolution with me when she was eighteen."
“I would only go back once every few years after leaving, and then I didn’t go back for more than ten years. She helped me see off my grandparents and parents and raised my daughter. When I’m with her, I always want to give her more leeway.”
Jianghu hadn't expected this reason, but still advised, "But if you let her have her way, you'll only hurt her."
Wang Qiang nodded: "I know, it won't happen again."
Political Commissar Jiang then waved his hand: "Good that you understand, go and get back to work!"
After Wang Qiang left, Political Commissar Jiang rubbed his temples, thinking: [Let's hope he doesn't get involved in any more of this messy stuff, it's so annoying...]
As usual, Rong Lianhu took his sons to town after get off work today, partly because he wanted his sons to have a good meal.
Another reason is that if Qing Xuanzi really takes Rong Jiaojiao away, they will definitely not see her for a long time. Letting them go to town will allow them to spend more time with their daughter.
When they arrived in town, Fu Ya was also coming home from get off work. As they entered, there was another basket of vegetables in front of Qing Xuanzi.
Cucumbers, eggplants, peppers, and today we also have a handful of cowpeas.
When Rong Lianhu and Fu Ya saw these, they knew that these were all things their daughter had put together.
The little girl was drinking water from her bottle when she saw her two older brothers and started calling out "de de de" repeatedly.
Qing Xuanzi laughed and said, "She knew to call him 'brother' as soon as she saw him. It was worth the afternoon you spent teaching her yesterday."
Rong Zhigao pulled his sister's hand to his face and said, "That's right, my sister is very smart."
Rong Zhiyuan took out a nougat candy and waved it in front of Rong Jiaojiao, saying, "Jiaojiao, call me brother, and I'll give you candy."
Rong Jiaojiao reached out to grab it, calling out as she did so: "De de, de de."
Rong Zhiyuan was delighted and was about to unwrap the candy and feed it to Rong Jiaojiao when Fu Ya, who had been watching for a while, quickly stopped him, saying, "Jiaojiao can't eat candy yet. Zhiyuan, eat it yourself."
Rong Zhiyuan said, "But Feng Baozhu is even younger than my sister, and Brother Feng Zhong has already fed her!"
"How did she feed her?"
"I just bit off a tiny bit and fed it to her, but I think that's too dirty. I can't feed it to my sister like that."
Fu Ya laughed: "No matter how I feed her, it won't work. She's too young, and she can easily choke on the candy."
"Okay, I'll put it away and eat it later."
It's unclear whether it was because he heard the word "collect" that Qing Xuanzi immediately sensed the fluctuations in Rong Jiaojiao's spiritual consciousness.
Quickly suppress her attention, then find something else to distract her.
Seeing his series of actions, Rong Lianhu and his wife knew that Rong Jiaojiao must have used her abilities again.
The couple both felt that as Rong Jiaojiao grew up, her thinking would become more and more active, and there would always be a time when Qing Xuanzi couldn't keep up. If she continued to play with her two sons frequently, she would eventually be exposed.
The two exchanged a glance, both seeing the decision in each other's eyes. Fu Ya took the initiative and said, "I'll cook tonight, and Lian Hu and my brother can talk."
Rong Lianhu carried a stool and sat down next to Qing Xuanzi. He asked, "Brother, do you want to go back to your sect?"
After Rong Lianhu finished speaking, Qing Xuanzi understood what he wanted to ask. Qing Xuanzi shook his head: "I don't plan to return to my sect before Jiaojiao learns the 'Sleeve Universe' technique."
This means that he will tell Rong Lianhu that he will find a place to stay temporarily and will not let Rong Jiaojiao be in danger.
The two remained silent, waiting for Rong Lianhu to make a decision. After a while, he said, "Brother, let's wait one more day."
Knowing they were reluctant to part and wanted to spend a few more days with the child, Qing Xuanzi nodded without saying anything more.
Fu Ya overheard their conversation in the kitchen, her eyes reddening. Overwhelmed with reluctance to part with her daughter, she could only silently apologize.
The next day, Fu Ya took a day off to go to town to buy things for Rong Jiaojiao and Qing Xuanzi.
She really wanted to take her daughter to the supply and marketing cooperative and buy her a pretty little dress, but she couldn't control her daughter's behavior, so some of her ideas could only remain thoughts.
She bought Rong Jiaojiao a small plush toy, milk powder, biscuits, malted milk powder...
Fu Ya bought Rong Jiaojiao clothes, shoes, and even hair accessories for all four seasons, up to the age of three. She bought everything she thought Rong Jiaojiao could use.
She not only bought clothes for Rong Jiaojiao, but also bought two sets of seasonal clothes for Qing Xuanzi. She originally wanted to buy winter clothes, but unfortunately, there were no winter clothes in stock for adults.
While Fu Ya was busy shopping, Qing Xuanzi wasn't idle either. Since they had decided to let him take Jiaojiao away first, the seeds that were originally planned to be purchased after Rong Jiaojiao had mastered the art of storing and storing things now had to be bought in advance.
He cast an illusion spell on himself before arriving at the seed station. There was only a middle-aged woman inside. Qing Xuanzi asked, "Sister, I would like to buy some grain seeds and vegetable seeds."
The middle-aged woman looked older than Qing Xuanzi, and she was quite pleased that Qing Xuanzi called her "sister."
But the necessary procedures still had to be followed. She asked, "Which production team are you from? Why are you buying grain seeds at this time?"
The only reason she's still sitting here is to keep up with the work hours. Although people occasionally come to buy vegetable seeds at this time of year, it's not many. It's already good if two or three people come to buy them a week.
It was a bit strange to think that this person came today not only to buy vegetable seeds but also grain seeds.
Qing Xuanzi had made thorough preparations before arriving. He took out a stamped certificate and handed it over, saying, "I'm from Zhanglou Production Team. I'm worried that we won't be able to buy seeds tomorrow because the harvest is bad this year, so I need to buy them in advance."
His words seemed credible, and with the stamped proof, the middle-aged woman readily handed him the seeds she wanted.
He took some of every kind of seed available, including thirty catties of corn seeds and thirty catties of rice seeds.
The woman became suspicious again: "Why did you only buy this little bit of grain seeds?"
Qing Xuanzi lied without thinking: "I came alone today. I'll take some back first and let the old farmer take a look. If the seeds are good, I'll bring someone to buy them tomorrow."
"Does your production team not even have an oxcart?"
Qing Xuanzi sighed and said, "Alas, sister, you don't know, there isn't much grass for the cattle to eat on the mountain. The cattle are so thin that they look like they could be blown over by the wind. How can we dare to use them?"
