Chapter 429 Let's sign up for a male-female duet performance!
Afterwards, while Cen Yan was still awake, Qi Jingchuan helped her clean her body and then hugged her and spoke to her.
"After the Lunar New Year, around the Lantern Festival, there will be a social event in the military. We need to bring our families to attend. Honey, are you free to come with me?"
Qi Jingchuan knew that Cen Yan disliked these social occasions, so he asked the question hesitantly, unsure whether Cen Yan would directly reject him.
Cen Yan was exhausted from the man's antics, so tired she could barely lift her eyelids. "Didn't you always hate dealing with other people and only think about completing training and military missions? Why are you thinking about going on a blind date?"
Qi Jingchuan certainly wouldn't say that he wanted everyone to see how good his relationship with his wife was.
But he was too embarrassed to express these things in front of his wife, and after a long silence, he asked again in a low voice.
"are you free?"
"Yes, if it's a military social event and family members are allowed to bring along, then I'll definitely go." This is also a necessary lesson for the regimental commander's wife. If she can show more in these kinds of things, the military leaders and colleagues will know that Qi Jingchuan has a harmonious family relationship.
Generally speaking, some leaders prefer to entrust important work and tasks to comrades who are at ease in the rear, so as to avoid any unexpected problems.
Someone like Yu Qingguo, who can't even manage his own household and causes unrest in his own home, is destined not to be entrusted with important responsibilities.
Or perhaps, by making more appearances and showing more of herself at social events like military gatherings, she could help Qi Jingchuan get promoted sooner? After all, Qi Jingchuan marrying a capitalist's daughter would essentially affect his future.
Cen Yan didn't want to harm Qi Jingchuan because of her background, so she tried her best to make amends.
but……
"You don't need to perform at a social gathering, right?"
Qi Jingchuan said, "I don't usually participate in these activities and I don't know much about them, but when Leng Feng came back, he said that some people were singing, some were dancing, and some were eating and drinking. The people singing and dancing were either the women or the single young women from the art troupe."
"Then I'll also sign up for a performance, what do you think? It'll make you look good, right? You said it yourself, all the singing and dancing are the wives. What if the other comrades' families all perform, and your family just keeps eating and drinking? Won't people talk about you behind your back?"
Qi Jingchuan certainly hoped his wife could perform, so he could go around showing off to others how talented she was.
"Don't force yourself. The songs your sisters-in-law sing are actually simple, heartfelt revolutionary songs by workers and peasants. You probably don't know them." My wife comes from a privileged background and has definitely never been exposed to this kind of song.
Cen Yan was immediately displeased upon hearing the man's words.
"Qi Jingchuan, who do you think you are! Although Shan Jianshe mistreated me, my grandparents taught me a lot when they were still alive, and I also learned a lot from Shan Xianxian. Singing, dancing, playing the piano, I can do it all! There's still some time before the social event, you can teach me, even if I'm not very good at it, I can learn!"
“Okay!” Qi Jingchuan smiled, his eyes crinkling. “I’ll perform with you, and if we don’t sing well, we’ll embarrass ourselves together.”
"Can you have some confidence in me, and in yourself? Why don't you sign up for a duet?"
Cen Yan directly decided on the type of performance.
Qi Jingchuan had no objections and fell asleep with his wife in his arms.
She didn't have to work on the second day of the Lunar New Year, but it was Cen Yan's turn to be on duty on the third day.
Later on, she had three consecutive days off, as did Qi Jingchuan.
