Chapter 27 Phone Call



At the training ground in the early morning, Lu Shiyi led the training team to run around the training ground. The team members saw that he was running faster than usual. The political commissar immediately notified the two squadron leaders to lead their respective team members in training.

The minister and the political commissar stood on the platform, waiting for Lu Shiyi to complete all the training programs. The political commissar looked at his watch and saw that it was only 27 minutes.

"That's nearly 4 minutes faster than usual." Minister Wu's eyes lit up. Lu Shiyi was a capable person. "You can hand it over to Shiyi in the future."

"Once the situation outside stabilizes, we will probably return to the imperial capital." Political Commissar Lin looked at the minister.

There are many capable people in the armed forces department, and there is friendly competition within the department. Although Hu Teng and Qi Shan often clash with each other, when problems arise, they and even their families help each other.

"Su Jin's investigation needs to be extremely detailed. Lu Shiyi's future may be even higher. Let's help him." Minister Wu thought of his son and daughter-in-law who were far away in the northwest, and wanted to help Lu Shiyi. After he retired from his position, he could help his son.

"Are you really not planning to transfer Yaozhong to the corps in Meng Province?" When Political Commissar Lin heard that there was a vacancy in the corps in Meng Province, he persuaded Wu Jun to use his connections to transfer his son.

"No need. Yaozhong is capable enough to transfer back. He's doing well in the newly established corps." Wu Jun never paid much attention to his sons. "My youngest son is also studying at the Naval Academy. When he graduates, he'll stay in the Southern Guangdong Military Region."

Wu Jun's youngest son has a good relationship with Lu Shiyi, and he also has an exam quota for military children to go to the Submarine Academy.

As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Shiyi ran over from the side. Seeing the minister and the political commissar looking at her, she scratched her head embarrassedly.

"Minister, Political Commissar, I have to go back to the village today to celebrate the New Year. I also have an engagement party in the village." Lu Shiyi looked at his superiors and partner, "Only two of you can attend the New Year's Eve dinner this year."

"You drive back. It's not easy for Su Zhiqing to marry you. You should make the best preparations within your ability." Wu Jun had held a wedding for his son. It was not easy to be a military wife.

"Thank you, Minister. Xiao Jin is aware of the situation for now and will join the army after getting married." Lu Shiyi and Su Jin had agreed that at least before marriage, she would not be bullied in the village.

"You should go back more often before you get married. The temperature is lower this year, so spring plowing will be delayed. After the autumn harvest, the village will not have a guaranteed food supply, and the situation will probably be chaotic. Bring Su Zhiqing here after the autumn harvest." Wu Jun instructed Lu Shiyi.

Wu Jun came from the countryside and understood the nature of the people there. Su Jin came from a big city in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. If Lu Shiyi had not taken action in advance, girls like these would have been targeted by many people.

"Thank you for the advice, Minister." Lu Shiyi was thinking about how to take care of Su Jin. It would be fine if he didn't go home that night without being discovered.

"Hurry up and get some food." There were no cooking utensils in the house that Lu Shiyi was allocated, and he was not the type of person to take Su Jin to someone else's house for dinner.

After Lu Shiyi saluted, he immediately ran to the cafeteria.

At this time, Su Jin had already gotten up and cleaned the master bedroom. She put on her coat and went out to the kitchen.

Pushing open the kitchen door, I saw that it was bright and clean inside. Apart from the stove and gas stove, there was no cooking utensils.

"Xiao Jin, come and eat first. I got some food from the cafeteria." Lu Shiyi came in with breakfast from the cafeteria. Su Jin hurriedly walked up and took the large enamel cup.

"When I have time, buy some cooking ingredients and I'll come over to cook for you." Su Jin followed Lu Shiyi back to the dining room. After opening the lunch box, she looked at the list of cold dishes and felt distressed.

Lu Shiyi worked in the armed forces, so his training was very demanding. If he ate like this, she was worried his body wouldn't be able to handle it. Others who came to the era had all sorts of golden fingers, space-time, and so on, but she had nothing.

She could only start struggling in reality. Fortunately, Su Jin liked to eat before, so she could eat good food with the existing ingredients.

"We'll buy it next time we come back. Why don't you make a list for me and I'll prepare it slowly when I get back to work." Lu Shiyi often ate meals cooked by Su Jin in the village, and now he is a little uncomfortable with eating in the cafeteria.

Su Jin chuckled: "Ayi, I prepared your meal in advance for work, you can buy a pot and heat it up when you come back!"

Lu Shiyi went back to work after the New Year. Everyone in the compound knew that he had a girlfriend, and it seemed inappropriate for him to still eat in the cafeteria.

"No, you have to do spring plowing after the New Year, and the work will be even more tiring then." Lu Shiyi objected, "The food in the cafeteria is pretty good, and the breakfast is light."

"I cooked meals for both of us. When I get off work at noon, I can heat up the food and eat it." Su Jin didn't want to have any contact with the Youth League Home, so it was better to cook alone.

Lu Shiyi is a capable man. He always brings back prey from the mountains, and she does it on the same day.

They lived on the mountain behind the village, and many brave families in the village went there to dig traps, so they often had meat to eat.

"You always cook meat in the middle of the night, and by the time the villagers get up in the morning, the smell is almost gone." Lu Shiyi said happily.

Su Jin chuckled: "I'm not worried that someone will say that not everyone in the village can get prey. Now that it's the New Year, every household is cooking meat, and the situation may be better."

Lu Shiyi found that Su Jin was cautious in his actions, and when he saw any signs of something wrong in the outside world, he would shrink back like a little turtle.

"Xiao Jin, after breakfast, go to the office and call your parents. When you return to the village, you must discuss the engagement banquet with your uncle." Lu Shiyi was holding an engagement banquet in the military compound. If he did not hold it when he returned to the village, Su Jin would lose face.

Su Jin looked at Lu Shiyi in surprise. They had said they would make their relationship public during the Chinese New Year, and now they had actually reached the stage of getting engaged.

"Ayi, I'm... a little nervous. What do your uncle and aunt do? Have you told my family about my family's situation?" Su Jin was worried that the Lu family would see through her, and if she was verbally offensive, she might consider her relationship with Lu Shiyi.

"My father is also a soldier, older than me. My mother is a military doctor, and I have two younger brothers. My mother has always wanted a daughter, but who would have thought that she could never get her wish. I told my family about your family situation, and my mother said she would take good care of you." Lu Shiyi gently soothed Su Jin's emotions.

"Ayi, call first."

After breakfast, Su Jin put on her coat and went to the office with Lu Shiyi. Political Commissar Lin specially gave the office to the two of them.

After the call was connected, Lu Shiyi said a few words to his mother and handed the phone to Su Jin.

"Xiao Jin, is that you? I'm your mother." Mother Lu's gentle voice made Su Jin's eyes red instinctively.

Su's mother was also a gentle person. In the original owner's impression, Su's mother never spoke loudly to her.

"Auntie, I'm Su Jin." Su Jin grinned, tears falling uncontrollably.

Lu Shiyi quickly wiped her cheek with his hand and listened to his mother's gentle voice on the phone.

"Just call me mom from now on. After you and Xiaoyi get engaged, you will be a member of the family. I'll ask Xiaoyi to tell you the phone numbers of home and my office. If anyone bullies you, just tell mom." When Mother Lu heard Su Jin's voice, she felt that this was the daughter she had imagined.
