"Well, there's something I want you to help me with."
"What's the hurry?"
"Well, my wife's birthday is coming soon, and she has always wanted a red tweed coat."
"I've been to the provincial capital several times, but I haven't found the kind she described."
"I thought my sister-in-law is in Shanghai, could I ask her for a favor?"
"See if there's a thin woolen coat in the Shanghai grocery store. A red one will do."
Although the two have not officially married, there is a consensus in this era, that is: dating without the purpose of getting married is hooliganism!
Besides, these two people were engaged a few years ago.
So privately, they all called Jiang Si brother-in-law or sister-in-law.
Xiao Zhengjun smiled and said, "My sister-in-law has good taste. The clothes she chooses must be better than those chosen by a rough guy like me. I just don't know if it's convenient for her."
Hearing this, Huo Tingzhou paused, but ultimately the idea of calling her prevailed.
"Let me ask first. If there is no suitable one in Shanghai, I will ask someone to help you go to the Beijing Cargo Building to have a look."
"Okay, thank you. I'll treat you to a meal after I'm done with these two days."
While Xiao Zhengjun thanked him, he asked another question.
"By the way, can you and your sister-in-law get married this year? We brothers have been waiting to drink in your wedding wine for several years."
They had asked this question before, but Huo Tingzhou always said to wait a little longer.
This made everyone mistakenly believe that he was the one who didn't want to get married.
They are usually very busy, and it was only during this joint mission that they had time to talk to each other.
Xiao Zhengjun said in an elder brother tone, "Don't keep asking me to wait. How many years does a girl's youth last? She can't afford to be wasted by you like this."
"I'm telling you, you've got to hurry up when it comes to getting married."
"Okay, got it."
There was no way to explain this, so Huo Tingzhou could only nod in agreement.
As the two were talking, orderly He Ping suddenly ran over with an anxious look on his face.
"Report to the leader!"
After saluting the two regiment commanders, He Ping immediately reported the situation to his own regiment commander.
"Captain, this urgent telegram was received more than ten days ago, and the address is Shanghai."
"Also, during the time you were on the mission, you received two calls in total, both from Beijing. Here are the messages they left for you."
After saying that, He Ping handed the telegram and the recorded information to Huo Tingzhou.
Hearing the words "㳔沪㹐", Huo Tingzhou opened the telegram without any hesitation.
There are only two short words on it.
When he saw it for the first time, Huo Tingzhou thought he was hallucinating.
He quickly looked through the address on the message, and after confirming that it was the Jiang family's old house, he took another look.
Then I looked at it again and again!
Seeing him frowning and reading the telegram over and over again, Xiao Zhengjun's curiosity was instantly aroused.
"What happened? What did the telegram say?"
Huo Tingzhou handed the telegram to him, and when he saw the word "marriage" on it.
Xiao Zhengjun uttered an "eh", then looked at Huo Tingzhou with an indescribable expression, his meaning was very obvious.
[Look at what you are doing. Shouldn't a man take the initiative to initiate a marriage? ]
[Also, what does it mean when you keep frowning? ]
Xiao Zhengjun thought so and asked directly.
"What's wrong, are you unhappy?"
It's not that I'm unhappy, it's that I'm worried.
Huo Tingzhou knew very well that she would not post this for no reason, unless... unless something happened to the Jiang family!
Without time to explain, Huo Tingzhou quickly looked through the two phone messages and said in a deep voice.
"I have something else to do. I'll go first and talk to you later."
"He Ping, help me prepare the car——"
