Chapter 29 Chapter 29 I am a patient and I need your...
Liang Xin suppressed her laughter and said calmly, "...I am a ghost, and the Nian beast cannot eat me."
There was no sound outside the door again.
Two seconds later, I heard the sound of his footsteps pacing back and forth.
The footsteps were obviously hurried and impatient.
Liang Xin smiled even more deeply and began to withdraw the needle.
After a long while, the footsteps stopped in front of the door again.
“Knock, knock.”
"What's up?"
"I forgot to give you the New Year's money."
"......What?"
"On New Year's Eve, children put New Year's money under their pillows to ward off evil spirits and bring peace."
Liang Xin didn't say anything.
Lu Chongfeng outside was anxious: "Just open a crack, I will give you the New Year's money, and we won't meet."
Liang Xin put down the bamboo needles and wool, lifted the quilt, got out of bed, walked to the door, opened the latch, and left a gap.
A big hand holding the New Year's money wrapped in red paper was passed through the crack of the door.
Very honest.
I didn't take the opportunity to push the door and force my way in.
Liang Xin had just finished thinking this and when she reached out to take the red envelope, instead of receiving it, her hand was held tightly.
"Why are your hands so cold? Let me warm them for you."
Zun Jin's big hands wrapped around the slender, white and smooth fingers, rubbing them back and forth.
The thick calluses on the knuckles of my hands felt like a rusty hatchet peeling young bamboo shoots.
Liang Xin felt an itch, like tiny needles pricking her arms, making her feel numb and tingling.
I tried to dodge, but he wouldn't let me go.
Lu Zewei used his fingertips with thin calluses to slowly touch every blood vessel on the back of Liang Xin's hand. After touching the blood vessels, he followed the blood vessels into the sleeve of her sweater, slid to the inside of her wrist, and then followed the blood vessels on the inside, swimming up to her palm like a snake. He opened his five fingers and inserted them into the gaps between her hands, then clenched them in an instant, with all ten fingers tightly clasped together.
After clasping her tightly, he was not very honest. He pressed and kneaded between his fingers, sometimes lightly, sometimes heavily.
The left hand is connected to the heart.
The soreness and swelling at the base of the fingers beats my heart.
Liang Xin's toes curled up slightly.
She tried to pull her hand back, but ended up pulling his arm in as well.
Lu Zewei's eyes were dark and the corners of his mouth slowly curled up.
Suddenly, Liang Xin pushed the door open, trapping his arm in the crack.
The force was not strong, but enough to isolate him outside the door and prevent him from entering the room.
Lu Chongfeng: “….”
Still unwilling to let go, he held Liang Xin's hand tightly with his big hand, "Comrade Liang Xin, I am a patient, I need your care."
"It's because of your illness that you need to rest that I sleep separately from you."
Liang Xin pulled her fingers out and spread her hands. "Will you give me the New Year's money? If not, forget it. I'm going to sleep."
".......Give."
Lu Chongfeng put the red envelope in, watched Liang Xin take the red envelope and close the door.
Then I heard a "click" and the bolt was inserted.
Lu Chongfeng put his head against the door and bumped it twice.
There is no other solution.
It was sunny on the first day of the new year.
The warm sunlight penetrates the thick fog and pours down under the eaves, like a soft veil of gauze, bright and gentle.
Liang Xin hardly slept the entire night and only took a short nap at dawn.
The light from the window glass refracted on my eyelids, and I was woken up by the sunlight. I yawned, lay on my side on the pillow, and looked at the two little figures on the window, thinking.
Which piece of cloth in the box is suitable for making curtains?
Suddenly, a handsome face appeared in the window.
He looks exactly like the little figure in the window grille. When the sunlight shines on his face, his skin looks transparent, warm and lively.
Liang Xin: “….”
Lu Chongfeng's eyes were filled with resentment, but when he saw Liang Xin wake up, he couldn't help but smile, "It's time to eat."
The sound insulation effect of wooden windows is average, and the sound pours in through the window gaps along with the sunlight.
Liang Xin threw back the quilt, got out of bed, and stretched lazily facing the sun.
As soon as I opened the door, the person who was standing outside the window just now flashed to the door.
"Comrade Liang Xin, Happy New Year."
"Comrade Lu Zewei, Happy New Year."
Comrade Lu Zewei extended his hand, "Comrade Liang Xin, hello."
Comrade Liang Xin did not shake his hand. She placed a pair of black woolen gloves on his palm and walked towards the kitchen. "New Year's gift."
Lu Chongfeng looked at the gloves and forgot to follow. He stood there with his hands raised, in a daze.
The teahouse had been empty for many years and no one wanted to live there, so there was no water supply.
Lu Chongfeng went to the well outside yesterday and fetched a jar of water.
Liang Xin picked up the kettle filled with hot water, poured half of the hot water into the enamel teacup, and then walked to the water tank with a ladle.
It was discovered that a thin layer of ice had formed on the surface of the water tank.
The scoop broke the thin ice, and the crystal clear ice cubes floated on the water, like a natural and pure mirror, reflecting Liang Xin's messy hair.
Liang Xin squeezed the toothpaste, carried the enamel teacup filled with water and walked to the sewer outlet in the corner, and suddenly found it very quiet.
Looking back, Lu Chongfeng was standing in the corridor like a frozen sculpture, with his eyes lowered, still looking at the gloves on his palms.
“Try it on for size.”
Liang Xin's voice awakens the sculpture.
The sculpture slowly turned its neck, its black eyes sparkling as it looked at Liang Xin.
I saw Liang Xin turned her back and brushed her teeth.
He then picked up the gloves and put them on.
Perfect size.
"When was this knitted?" Lu Chongfeng walked towards Liang Xin. "You know the size of my hand without even measuring it?"
Liang Xin brushed her teeth and didn't answer.
Lu Chongfeng put on the other glove and raised his two hands. "This is the first time I've seen a glove with five fingers!"
"...have you ever seen work gloves?"
Lu Chongfeng: “….”
Then I remembered the white gloves that my fellow farmers and engineering comrades often wore on their hands.
"It's different. Yours is a half-finger glove, which is convenient for writing and working. There is also a round glove on the outside with buttons. You can buckle it when you work, so it won't affect your movements. When it's cold, you can wear it to keep warm. This is the first time I've seen this kind of two-piece combination."
Seeing how he loved it, Liang Xin no longer needed to ask whether he liked it or not. She poured hot water into the enamel basin to wash her face, then opened the lid of the big pot and saw the buns.
"Where did the buns come from?"
"I bought it in the cafeteria yesterday. The eggs were already boiled and rinsed with cold water. There was also a big pot of porridge cooking inside."
The long windows are propped up and the sunlight is slanted in.
The melodious voice of a female anchor from the Central People's Broadcasting Station on the radio came out: "Dear listeners, Happy New Year! Now it's time for the news and newspaper summary program..."
On the square table were two bowls of white porridge, boiled eggs, green onion pork buns and spicy vermicelli buns.
Liang Xin bit into the spicy vermicelli bun, the spicy and fresh taste stimulated her nerves and drove away her sleepiness.
Lu Chongfeng blew out the whole egg and placed it in front of Liang Xin. "Didn't you sleep well? Are you cold?"
"Don't mention the word sleep."
Liang Xin continued to take a bite of the spicy vermicelli bun and chewed it slowly. "You said that we can repair the indoor bathroom. Can we also connect the tap water pipe to the house?"
"After the New Year, the logistics people will come to pick us up."
Lu Chongfeng finished a meat bun in just two or three bites. "I'll fill up the water tank after I get back from drills this morning. You can use it first and bear with it for two more days."
"No, there is no running water in Huaihua Village."
Liang Xin said, "Besides, I was the one who insisted on choosing this house, so it's up to you to make do with it."
Lu Chongfeng put down the bowl of porridge and said, "You have already made do by coming here with me. You may just be new to this place, but once the novelty wears off, you will get bored."
“Not boring.”
The dream life of lying down.
Liang Xin picked up the bowl and took a sip of the porridge.
Lu Chongfeng picked up the checkered handkerchief and wiped his mouth. "I'll ask Xiao Song to bring you the latest newspaper after I go to work."
Liang Xin looked up in surprise, "Going to work? Working on New Year's Day?"
"certainly."
Lu Chongfeng said as a matter of course: "The soldiers don't have holidays. They go to the training ground in the morning and have two meetings in the afternoon. They won't get off work too late. I will come back to heat up the lunch and dinner. We can't cook new dishes on New Year's Day. Tomorrow..."
Liang Xin: "You go to work, I'll cook the meal."
Lu Chongfeng was stunned, "You do it?"
Liang Xin finished her porridge and leaned back in her chair. "The Training Department is the head of the ten departments in the division headquarters, and the Chief of the Training Department is the busiest position. Do you have time to cook?"
"You know all this?"
Without waiting for Liang Xin to answer, Lu Chongfeng continued, "No matter how busy you are, you still have time to cook. The 22nd Regiment, which is the pilot training unit, is at the division headquarters. If you are assigned to other units, or if you are really too busy, you can just go to the cafeteria to get food. You can just read the newspaper and drink tea like you did in the compound before. You don't have to do anything else."
"You take care of the front, and I'll take care of the back."
Liang Xin stood up and stacked the bowls, "Focus on your work."
It had been a month or two since they got married, but it was the first time that Lu Chongfeng saw Liang Xin collecting bowls, busy like a...family member.
Is this out of pity for him?
Lu Chongfeng's heart softened and he walked over to hug Liang Xin.
But he was stabbed in the chest by a pair of chopsticks.
Liang Xin: "Keep your distance."
After a normal chat for the meal, Lu Chongfeng, who had completely forgotten about the matter, said: "......"
"Marriage reform is over, and free love is over!"
"You have no say." Liang Xin said, "Prepare candies and celebrate the New Year."
Lu Chongfeng, who had no say at all, resisted the urge to hug her forcefully and fiercely grabbed a handful of White Rabbit milk candies and assorted fruit candies.
Deputy Battalion Commander Lei lives in a typical Jiangkou house, with rooms on the east and west sides, a main hall in the middle, and a small square courtyard at the entrance. Green garlic, cabbage, chives and coriander are planted in the courtyard, and green cabbage leaves are growing in the flower beds along the wall.
There was a chicken coop in the corner, and a woman in a blue cotton jacket was squatting in front of the coop taking out eggs.
"Chief Lu!"
Deputy Battalion Commander Lei, who was tall and sturdy, walked out of the main hall. When he saw Lu Chongfeng and Liang Xin, he immediately smiled and greeted them, "Is this the bride? Happy New Year!"
"Deputy Battalion Commander Lei, sister-in-law, Happy New Year."
After Lu Chongfeng finished speaking, Liang Xin repeated it.
"Happy New Year, Happy New Year." After shaking hands with the two men, Deputy Battalion Commander Lei looked around and saw the family members standing up from the chicken coop. "There are guests at home, come quickly."
"Happy New Year."
Deputy Battalion Commander Lei's family member was not tall, with a plump figure, but his cheeks were very thin. His expression was friendly, but when he looked at Liang Xin, his eyes seemed not so friendly. "My name is Li Mao, Mao as in thatch."
"Liang Xin, the fragrance of flowers."
The family member of Deputy Battalion Commander Lei curled his lips very obviously, as if to expect it. Only after being secretly pushed by Deputy Battalion Commander Lei did he smile friendly again.
Liang Xin handed over the paper-cuts and said, "Thank you for the dumplings you sent me yesterday. They were delicious. This is the paper-cuts I cut for you."
Deputy Battalion Commander Lei's family member took the paper-cut without much reaction. When they took it up and looked at it, they immediately looked up at Liang Xin in surprise, then quickly lowered their heads to look at the paper-cut, exclaiming, "This, you have such a skillful hand!"
"Is this the Chairman's portrait?" Deputy Battalion Commander Lei also looked over in surprise. "Even the slogans have been cut out? Chief Lu, your family members are really skilled!"
Lu Chongfeng's mouth corners suddenly raised, "My family members deliberately avoided sensitive patterns such as Fu Lu and the Eight Immortals. They only cut revolutionary themes and common flower and bird patterns. There will be no problem."
The two people opposite were completely immersed in the window paper-cuts, and when they saw the magpies on the plum trees and the fish playing with the lotus flowers, which were both meaningful and joyful, they exclaimed in amazement from time to time.
With every sound, the corners of Lu Chongfeng's mouth raised a little.
Liang Xin reminded: "Sugar."
Lu Chongfeng reacted and took out a handful of candy from his pocket and handed it to Deputy Battalion Commander Lei, "This is our wedding candy, for the children at home."
When they saw a handful of White Rabbit milk candies and assorted fruit candies, they were shocked again.
Deputy Battalion Commander Lei held the candy in his hand and said, "Captain Lu, sister-in-law, you are too polite."
"Yes." Deputy Battalion Commander Lei's family looked at Liang Xin, "It's almost half a pound of sugar. If we send a little to each family, how much will it cost you?"
Liang Xin: "That's all I'll give to your family."
Deputy Battalion Commander Lei and his wife were stunned again.
Li Mao pouted again, but his eyes turned friendly, "You guys still don't have any children."
As they spoke, two boys ran in rolling hoops.
Li Mao immediately picked up the shoes drying on the windowsill and was about to throw them over, but then he remembered that today was the first day of the Chinese New Year and he shouldn't hit children. "You just put on new clothes and they've already gotten your skin dirty in just one morning! Come here! Call me uncle and aunt!"
The two boys stood, one tall and one short: "Hello, uncle and aunt!"
Liang Xin was about to reply when a voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Chief Lu... Liang Xin, are you home?"
Li Mao: "Someone is looking for you."
"She is Commander Yang's sister-in-law."
Lu Zewei talked to the two children about candy and walked out with Liang Xin.
When I walked to the door, I ran into Xia Xia head-on.
Xia Xia avoided Lu Chongfeng's sight and smiled at Liang Xinlu, "I just wanted to come next door to ask where you guys went."
Deputy Battalion Commander Lei and Li Mao saw Xia Xia and came out to wish her a happy new year.
As soon as I went out, I saw something at the door of Liang Xin's house and my mouth opened wide in shock.
On the wooden cart were half a rack of pork with ribs and five or six large carps.
Yang Tao was holding two net bags in her hands, which contained two cans of malted milk, two cans of milk powder, two cans of fish, a pile of apples, a pack of Daqianmen cigarettes and a bottle of Moutai liquor.
Lu Chongfeng and Liang Xin were also shocked.
"This..." Deputy Battalion Commander Lei's family member said directly: "If you don't know, you would think that Section Chief Lu and his wife saved your family's lives!"
Xia Xia just smiled and didn't say anything.
Liang Xin was surprised for a moment. Because of the enthusiasm of the reporters at the base, she thought that the news of Yang Tao falling into the water had spread throughout the division. She didn't expect that even Deputy Battalion Commander Lei didn't know about it.
When I thought about Yang Tao's reputation and the base's plans, I understood.
Deputy Battalion Commander Lei realized that there was something fishy going on. After paying New Year's greetings, he took the curious family members, who didn't want to leave, home.
Liang Xin: "Sister-in-law, why did you send so many things over?"
"It should have been sent long ago."
Xia Xia took Liang Xin's hand and said softly, "Let's move home first. It's almost time to go to work, and this road is full of people."
Liang Xin looked at Lu Chongfeng.
Lu Chongfeng frowned.
"You saved Yang Tao, so I'm just giving you some New Year gifts." Xia Xia motioned to Yang Tao to take the things into the house.
Yang Tao immediately stepped over the threshold.
"This is too much." Liang Xin walked to the cart and looked at the half pig, which weighed at least 50 kilograms. "There are only two of us. We have brought bacon from home. Sister-in-law, you can take half back."
"Not much. It's cold now, so it can be stored. Besides, if you make it into bacon, it won't go bad for a year."
Xia Xia wanted to move down, but failed. She had no choice but to look at Lu Chongfeng, "Lu... Section Chief Lu, Yang Tao, Yang Tao's father is your superior. Don't worry, he has already informed the base and will not let you be affected in any way."
Hearing this, Liang Xin felt relieved.
Although Commander Yang is Lu Chongfeng's superior.
But behind Lu Chongfeng, there is Chief Lu.
Lu Chongfeng stepped forward and moved the pork into the house.
Xia Xia immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and Liang Xin stepped forward and together they carried the six big carps into the backyard.
"I forgot that the house you chose doesn't have running water."
Xia Xia rolled up her sleeves, ready to help kill the fish, and turned around: "There's no large aluminum basin?"
Lu Chongfeng brought in all the things on the cart and said, "I've made an appointment with the director of the service center. You can pick it up on the third day of the new year."
Xia Xia immediately took the carambola and went back to get two large aluminum basins.
After Lu Chongfeng went to work, Liang Xin, with the help of Xia Xia, finished marinating the six large carps, removed the ribs from half a pork loin, cut the pork into sections, and marinated most of it and left a small half.
The custom of not cooking, beating children, or sweeping the floor on New Year's Day was unified in the military compound.
Therefore, Liang Xin did not invite Xia Xia and Yang Tao to have lunch, and Xia Xia did not invite Liang Xin to her home for dinner.
When leaving, Liang Xin wrapped the New Year's money in red paper and handed it to Yang Tao.
Xia Xia specifically asked her daughter to open the money, fearing that Liang Xin would deliberately give more and also give today's gift.
When I saw it was ten yuan, I still felt it was too much, but I finally accepted it.
I felt relieved, as I had finally repaid part of Liang Xin and Lu Chongfeng for saving my life.
At noon, I heated up the braised fish that was left over from yesterday, and served the braised pork, braised eggs, and braised tofu with chili vinegar dipping sauce, and heated up the bacon, vegetables, and rice.
Lu Chongfeng hurried home and had just finished his meal when Secretary Xi came over and called him away.
All I know is that the base leader has come to the division.
Liang Xin had hardly slept the whole night and had been busy all morning. She just lay down on the bed and was ready to take a nap.
There was the sound of copper rings knocking on the wooden door.
So lively.
Liang Xin forced herself to get up, put on her cotton jacket, buttoned it up, and dressed neatly before going out to open the door.
"Comrade, nice to see you again, happy new year."
"Happy New Year."
Liang Xin's head felt heavy and dizzy, and she was slow to react before she remembered the other party's name, "Thank you, Chief of Staff."
Xie Kangmei smiled, "Yes, Chief Lu is at home, right? We just came back from the base after celebrating the New Year, and we came to wish you a happy new year before noon. This is the cloud cake we brought from home for you to eat."
"Not at home, at work."
After Liang Xin answered, she did not take the things, but supported the two wooden doors with both hands, implying that she was going to close them.
However, Xie Kangmei handed a piece of cloud cake wrapped in red paper into the door.
Liang Xin still had her hand on the door. "If you have anything to ask, you can go to the office to see Section Chief Lu."
Xie Kangmei looked at the cakes and suddenly looked up and smiled, "Don't get me wrong, I really just want to share the cakes from my home to wish you a happy new year. Although Section Chief Lu is my superior, these are cakes I brought from my home at the base. I have no other intentions."
Liang Xin didn't say anything.
Xie Kangmei's face finally froze slightly, and he put the cakes back, "Originally, my family and I should have come here to pay New Year's greetings, but..."
Anyone would respond by asking, "What's wrong?"
Give people a way out and let them say what they want to say.
Liang Xin said, "I understand."
Xie Kangmei's face became even more stiff.
How can I understand it when he hasn't even said anything?
"...Actually, there was a conflict between my family and me."
If it were anyone else, they would probably follow up with, "What's wrong?"
Liang Xin not only didn't say anything, she also pushed the door forward.
Xie Kangmei had never seen such a person before and had no curiosity at all!
And he keeps driving people away!
Don’t you know who he and his family are?
After thinking about it this way, Xie Kangmei figured it out. No wonder she didn't react at all even though he hinted at the source of the Yunpian Cake several times just now.
"Comrade Liang Xin, I am from the same poor and lower-middle peasant family as you." Without waiting for Liang Xin to answer, Xie Kangmei said with a smile: "You married Chief Lu, and I married the daughter of the base's logistics director. In fact, we are very similar from our background to our marriage."
Liang Xin had roughly guessed it on the train and was not surprised.
Xie Kangmei was also surprised. He was surprised that Liang Xin was still so calm. He couldn't hold on to the smile on his face. He looked at Liang Xin carefully and suspected that she was a little stupid, so he said it more bluntly:
"Comrade Liang Xin, people like us who come from such backgrounds would be really nervous and at a loss when entering the head's family. The only thing we can do is to live a hard and frugal life, so I understand why you choose to live here."
Liang Xin understood his intention and was no longer in a hurry to close the door. "Why?"
Xie Kangmei paused. He had already explained it so clearly, why was he still asking why?
Really stupid.
Talking is tiring.
He didn't want to talk to Liang Xin anymore.
Since he got married, everyone who met him praised him.
The other party could guess what he meant just by looking at his expression, so there was no need for him to waste time explaining it sentence by sentence.
Xie Kangmei looked around and said, "Comrade Liang Xin, my family originally agreed to follow the army because I promised to turn this teahouse into a study and garden. But you suddenly stopped living in the regimental officer's housing and chose to live in the teahouse, which resulted in the loss of the study and garden I promised. That's why my family and I are in conflict."
Liang Xin was puzzled. "You mean, with your position you can get four rooms?"
Xie Kangmei paused, "This teahouse is not considered a family room."
Liang Xin: "If you say it doesn't count, then it doesn't count?"
Xie Kangmei's mouth tightened, "The base logistics director's words don't count."
Liang Xin continued, "The base logistics minister? The division headquarters' houses are divided according to the division headquarters' rules and regulations. What does it have to do with the base logistics minister? Or do you mean that the logistics minister wants to use the power given to him by the people to bypass the rules and open a back door for his daughter and son-in-law?"
The smile on Xie Kangmei's face disappeared. Liang Xin blocked his way for a long time and he dared not reply. After a while, he lowered his voice and said, "Comrade Liang Xin, this is Jiangkou Base. Minister Yu has been here for more than 20 years. Don't be too clever and get yourself into trouble by Chief Lu."
Liang Xin said nothing and looked outside.
Xie Kangmei approached and said, "If Chief Lu knew that you offended Minister Yu because you refused to live in the regimental housing you were supposed to live in, would your life in the Lu family be easy?"
Thinking of Lu Chongfeng's thoughtfulness towards Liang Xin on the train, Xie Kangmei said, "Even if you are beautiful, how long can your beauty attract men? If you come from a peasant family like you, you can stay in the Lu family for a few more years just by being quiet and pretty. But if you become a burden to Section Chief Lu, I'm afraid Section Chief Lu will have to kick you out of the house without him saying a word!"
Liang Xin suddenly laughed, "You are quite self-aware."
Xie Kangmei frowned and was about to speak when he suddenly heard footsteps. He turned around and his pupils shrank instantly.
The leaders of the base and the division, led by Lu Chongfeng, were walking towards this side with smiles on their faces.
Xie Kangmei immediately turned around and said to Liang Xin, "If you're afraid of being kicked out of the Lu family, shut up when the leaders pass by!"
Liang Xin didn't say anything, and Xie Kangmei felt relieved.
Looking back at the base leaders' enthusiastic attitude towards Lu Chongfeng, it was exactly the scene he had imagined many times.
Unfortunately, even though he became the son-in-law of the logistics minister, when these leaders saw him in the base compound, they began to ask him enthusiastically whose child he was. But when they heard that he was the son-in-law of the Yu family, their enthusiasm immediately disappeared, and they nodded indifferently and left, just like they were facing their subordinates.
Therefore, Xie Kangmei understood Liang Xin's situation very well, and knew what Liang Xin cared about most and what she feared most.
After making the threat, he was not worried that Liang Xin would say something nonsense, and walked towards his father-in-law with a smile on his face.
He wanted to be like Lu Chongfeng, accompanying the top leaders of the base all the way, passing through the family compound, and comforting the families one by one.
"dad......"
Xie Kangmei had just opened his mouth when Lu Chongfeng said something that made the base commander laugh out loud, and the other leaders followed suit, including his father-in-law.
His words were drowned out by laughter.
When the leaders saw him, they just smiled and nodded, then walked past him.
Xie Kangmei took a deep breath, turned around and chased after him.
But I saw the big leaders stopped in front of Liang Xin and lined up to shake hands with Liang Xin.
Xie Kangmei felt even more upset. He had never received such treatment since he married Yu Honghong, but Liang Xin benefited from it by following Section Chief Lu.
He held his breath and walked closer. Suddenly, he heard the base commander holding Liang Xin's hand and saying, "Comrade Liang Xin, you are a hero among military wives!"
Xie Kangmei: “?”
Liang Xin just shook hands and didn't say anything.
The base commander smiled again and said, "Our hero is very shy."
Commander Yang looked at Liang Xin in confusion.
Lu Chongfeng noticed that Liang Xin was not in a good state, so he stepped into the room and asked, "Are you tired?"
"I never thought that he looked so brave in the photos, but he looked so delicate and weak in private." The base political commissar smiled and said, "Comrade Liang Xin, today we and the municipal party committee cadres have come here to wish you a happy new year."
Liang Xin still didn't say anything.
The base commander and the base political commissar were about to lose their smiles, and the smiles on the faces of the other leaders were also a little awkward.
Lu Chongfeng suddenly reached out and touched Liang Xin's forehead.
Director Yu of the base's logistics department asked, "Are you feeling unwell?"
Liang Xin didn't reply, but pointed at Xie Kangmei who was standing against the wall in confusion.
The leaders of the base all looked in unison in the direction Liang Xin pointed.
Xie Kangmei's face suddenly turned pale and his legs and feet became weak.
Lu Chongfeng looked at Xie Kangmei fiercely, "What happened to him?"
Liang Xin closed her mouth and hummed: "He won't let me speak."
Her pronunciation was not clear, but everyone present could hear clearly what she was saying.
The base commander's face straightened: "You said, don't be afraid."
"He just said that." Liang Xin finally spoke slowly: "If you are afraid that after Minister Yu makes trouble for Section Chief Lu, Section Chief Lu will divorce you and no longer want you, then when the leaders pass by, shut up!"
