"Niu Xiangqian! What do you mean?"
Commander Shi knew this man couldn't possibly say anything nice, and he was so angry his face turned red.
"You're trying to steal my boyfriend right in front of me, aren't you?"
“Hey, Commander Shi, you can’t say that.”
Minister Niu said, "Comrade Jiang has already said that her ambitions lie elsewhere!"
"Besides, everything should be done in a first-come, first-served manner. Our division's propaganda department had already contacted Comrade Jiang about the work a few months ago."
Thinking that this person had been on tour for half a year, he probably didn't know much about what was happening in the military region.
Minister Niu even kindly explained it to her.
"Comrade Jiang is not only talented in dance, but also quite accomplished in painting!"
Even now, Minister Niu couldn't resist putting her down, saying, "She's a talent that's one in ten thousand."
"you!"
What followed was a ten-minute-long verbal altercation between the two.
Jiang Si was sandwiched between the two, looking quite helpless.
"Well, um." Seeing that it was getting late, Jiang Si interrupted.
"Thank you for your kindness, but for now I want to stay home and rest during my pregnancy and I have no plans to work for the time being."
Minister Niu and Head of Detachment Shi both felt somewhat regretful that they hadn't been able to recruit any promising young talents.
But then she realized that Jiang Si hadn't chosen anyone.
The two felt much better instantly.
However, after Jiang Si and the others had walked away, the two of them couldn't help but bicker for a few more minutes.
Seeing this, Jiang Si couldn't help but feel curious. She didn't think she had that much charm to make the two of them argue to this extent.
Fortunately, Teacher Hu was knowledgeable and immediately told her, "These two are notorious rivals in our military region. They fight as soon as they meet, like fighting cocks."
Jiang Si was even more curious now, "Why?"
"It's a long story," Hu Meili said. "These two had been on a blind date before, and they even dated for a while."
"Did they date?"
Hu Meili nodded, "Yes, that was several years ago. At that time, Commander Shi had just been transferred from another military region, and Commander Niu had just been promoted."
"Commander Yao saw that they were both single and a good match, so he enthusiastically tried to set them up, and the result was..."
"What's the result?" Jiang Si thought this gossip must be quite interesting.
Hu Meili suppressed a laugh and continued, "You saw Minister Niu's mouth just now. This is already a correction of his previous words. Before, he was even more offensive, and every word he said was like a knife to the heart."
"I heard that they had an unpleasant experience during their first blind date, and Commander Shi probably just modestly expressed his feelings at the time."
"As a result, Minister Niu immediately said, 'During the last performance, I think you seemed to have rushed the beat.'"
"At the end, they even said that your professional skills need improvement, which made Commander Shi so angry that he couldn't back down."
"And that wasn't all. Afterwards, Minister Niu gave a long speech of suggestions that lasted for more than half an hour."
"Finally, they added that your legs are too thick and you're not suited to wearing skirts, and that your face is too dark and this color of skirt doesn't look good on you..."
"Well... he really is quite straightforward."
Jiang Si finally understood why the two of them started fighting the moment they met.
She didn't say being straightforward was bad, but living with someone like that is definitely tiring.
As they were talking, the two went to the supplies office and collected their New Year's benefits.
There's quite a lot of stuff: half a pound each of brown sugar and rapeseed oil, and a choice between high-gluten flour and rice, each weighing five pounds.
One packet each of peanuts and melon seeds, two towels, and three bars of soap.
Movie tickets are sold per person, one ticket per person.
In addition to these, each family also received two Guangzhou sausages, five eggs, and two large bottles of canned fruit.
Jiang Si thought it was over, but she never expected that as a family member of the flight squadron...
She also received two extra cans of beef and a box of chocolate biscuits.
No wonder, Teacher Hu reminded her to bring a larger basket.
Next, the two went to the back courtyard and bought pork.
Jiang Si bought two pig trotters, and the rest were spare ribs.
By this time, the basket was already full. Luckily, Qianbao was there, otherwise carrying all these things up and down the stairs would have been quite strenuous.
After leaving the courtyard, the two went to the finance office.
As I was going upstairs, I saw several military dependents walking downstairs with smiles on their faces.
Judging from her expression, Jiang Si guessed that the bonus this time should be quite substantial.
Sure enough, when she went in, the finance office staff verified her identity and handed her a thick envelope.
She had a total of 318.36 yuan.
Hu Meili also received a lot, totaling 263.58 yuan.
The people in the finance department spoke loudly, and the women queuing outside could hear them too.
I may envy it, but there's nothing I can do about it.
It was clearly stated when we subscribed to the shares that the more money we invested, the more dividends we would receive in the future.
But at the time, no one dared to guarantee that the factory would be profitable, so many military dependents only purchased a few dozen or a hundred units.
Now I see other people taking home tens or hundreds of dollars.
I felt incredibly regretful.
However, what follows is even more enviable.
The finance department staff said, "Comrade Jiang, this is Commander Huo's January salary and mission allowance."
"Please click on it, and if there are no problems, please sign here."
"Okay, thank you."
After taking inventory, Jiang Si and Hu Meili went out.
As soon as he stepped outside, he was met with envious glances from his sisters-in-law.
