"Shaoxuan, no, that's not true. I encountered an accident back then. Maybe God took pity on me, that I was successful in my career but empty in love, and wanted to give me such an excellent husband like you."
That's why I became your wife. See, aren't we living a happy life now? Just enjoy the present moment.
Xia Enruo grasped Gu Shaoxuan's hand, placed her own hand in his palm, and felt his warmth.
"Enruo, you said you came from the future and that you went to university. These things still seem like a dream to me!"
“I went to university, and I even have a master’s degree, so I’m not the peasant that people call me. Have you ever seen a peasant write so beautifully?”
Xia Enruo ate millet porridge and meat buns at the same time.
What will the future look like? Will our troops be even more powerful than they are now?
As a soldier, Gu Shaoxuan's vision for the future is naturally inseparable from the development of the military.
He really wanted to know what the future military would be like.
"I don't know the specifics, but we have a place in the world's military, and our country also has its own aircraft carriers, more than one. We also have Dongfeng missiles, which are said to be able to hit targets anywhere in the world. In short, they are very powerful."
Gu Shaoxuan was incredibly excited. He hadn't expected such a significant breakthrough in future military development; it was truly remarkable. He really wanted to go and see the future.
"Enruo, you said you used to own a restaurant and also make clothes. What kind of clothes did you make?"
"Luxury brands can charge tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands, for a single garment or bag. It depends on the complexity of the materials and craftsmanship."
My brand also includes skincare products, perfumes, and accessories—there are many kinds, all designed and developed by my team. I haven't even counted how many kinds there are.
There are over 1,500 stores worldwide.
Gu Shaoxuan was shocked to hear that this was too expensive. A single piece of clothing cost tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, enough to buy a building.
"Enruo, is this true? People actually buy something this expensive?"
"Of course it's true, but the currency depreciated back then. Now a steamed bun costs three cents, but in my time it cost one yuan and fifty cents. Your monthly salary is 70 yuan now, but in my time you could earn around 9,000 yuan."
So people earn more, and things become more expensive. However, the brands I make are generally unaffordable for the average person. They mainly cater to wealthy people, and there are just too many wealthy people in the world.
They can earn in the blink of an eye what others earn in a lifetime. That's why people will buy them no matter how expensive they are!
Gu Shaoxuan never expected his wife to be so capable. No wonder she had such a sharp business mind; it turned out she was a successful businesswoman in her past life.
"Shaoxuan, hurry up and eat, or your breakfast will get cold. Ask me anything you want to know later. After we finish eating, I have a mission. The female soldiers are waiting for me to teach them to sing!"
Gu Shaoxuan finally came to his senses. He picked up a steamed bun, stuffed it into his mouth, and looked at Xia Enruo, his mind filled with countless thoughts.
Xia Enruo met with the female soldiers under the leadership of the communications company commander.
Because it was Chinese New Year, the group leaders gave them special permission to spend the next few days learning to sing with Xia Enruo, except for their duties and morning training.
Because "Daughter's Love in the Storm" was such a beautiful song, the female soldiers were all looking forward to Xia Enruo's arrival.
"Sister-in-law Enruo, you are so beautiful, both in appearance and voice."
"But I heard from the veterans that she wasn't like this before. They said she was lazy and slovenly, and after she joined the army, she was a laughing stock in the whole army. Chief of Staff Gu didn't even go home."
"It sounds like a rumor. I can't believe these things could happen to my sister-in-law. She doesn't seem like that kind of person at all."
"When I return home after my military service, I will also style my hair like hers and wear clothes like hers."
"That's right, I wish I could too. By the way, I heard them say today that the chief of staff carried a lunchbox all over the camp so that his wife could have a hot meal, afraid that it would get cold. He was running at a speed that was like a 100-meter sprint."
"Really? Oh, that sounds so sweet. I wish I had a husband like that."
"You wish. Unless you're as beautiful and charming as Sister-in-law Enruo."
Xia Enruo asked the company commander to prepare the sheet music and distributed one to each person.
It was printed with ink back then, which looks really familiar.
That kind of ink fragrance was long gone from my past life.
The unit happened to have an accordion, and the communications company borrowed it.
Xia Enruo recognized it, tried it out, and actually produced a sound.
The original owner's skill really helped him a lot.
The female soldiers were even more in awe of her when they saw that she could even play the accordion.
In their eyes, Xia Enruo is an all-rounder, proficient in all kinds of skills.
Xia Enruo taught her word by word, not daring to be careless in the slightest. This was an order from the Lu Regiment, and the female soldiers had to be made sure they all knew the song.
It will come in handy later when we have a cultural performance.
While in the army, Gu Shaoxuan decided to inspect the training results of the first, second, and third battalions.
He personally participated in the combat shooting exercise, and even Yuan Qiang was called over to join in.
Inside the training building at the training ground, the red and blue teams engaged in a fierce battle.
Gu Shaoxuan was agile and his shooting was not only steady but also very accurate. He won the shooting competition every year at the military academy.
They quickly eliminated all of the opposing team's personnel and secured victory.
Battalion Commander Gao Yong was sweating bullets. He hadn't expected the Chief of Staff to eliminate the contestants from the First Battalion so quickly. It was too fast, and he was bound to get scolded.
"Chief of staff, please feel free to raise any issues. I will listen and make immediate corrections."
Gao Yong was expecting a scolding; he hadn't anticipated his soldiers would be defeated so quickly.
"Battalion Commander, training is not about quantity but quality. I see that their coordination is quite good, but their aiming accuracy is still low, especially when moving or under interference. Their accuracy is too low."
What's the use of perfect technique if your movements are flawless? On the battlefield, what matters is the accuracy with which you kill the enemy, not how precise and standardized your movements are. We need to change our training approach; this won't work.
"The Chief of Staff is right."
"After the New Year, I'll talk to Regiment Lu and ask him to adjust the intensity and applicability of the training, and increase the number of live-action combat drills. We can't just stare at a stationary sign all day long."
In real-world missions, there's no one who just stands there and lets you hit them.
"If I find that the soldiers' combat skills haven't improved after the battalion commander is reassigned, I'll hold you accountable."
"Reporting to the Chief of Staff, I guarantee the mission will be completed and await your approval."
Gu Shaoxuan was busy all morning. The second and third battalions had the same problem. If this continued, it would look good on the surface, but the substance would be ruined.
It seems that the training program urgently needs reform, to be more practical, and to truly train soldiers with real skills.
He took a sip of tea and walked toward the communications company. He hadn't seen Enruo all morning and wondered how her singing lessons were going.
Will she be able to adapt to the military environment since she's new here?
