Chapter 398 Jiang Ting Moves to the Family Compound
Back in front of my own courtyard, the gate to Sister Li's house across the street was open.
As Jiang Ning, along with Lezhi and Nanxing, passed by their courtyard gate, they heard sobbing coming from inside.
The sound is Li Xingyue crying.
"Xingyue, it's okay." Sister Li was comforting her. "You weren't selected for the New Year's cultural performance this year, but we'll wait until next year. As long as you practice your basic skills now, you'll be rewarded sooner or later."
Li Xingyue felt much better after hearing her mother's words.
She was not selected this time because her basic skills are not yet up to par, and she will work harder in the future.
Before Jiang Ning could find a suitable candidate for Dexingtang Pharmacy, new military dependents suddenly arrived at the family compound.
That day, Shen Mo picked up his wife and child and took them home to his family compound.
After returning to the family compound, he first returned the car to the military base, and then came back to take his wife and children, who were waiting for him at the gate of the compound, back to their own courtyard.
On their way back to their courtyard, they saw that two rows of previously empty battalion-level courtyards were now being filled with furniture.
Nowadays, most military families still prefer to live in apartment buildings and rarely choose to live in courtyards.
Jiang Ning didn't care who moved in.
But I always pass by this courtyard on my way back to my own.
As she passed by, Jiang Ning glanced inside and saw Jiang Ting.
Jiang Ting was directing people to move the furniture into the yard.
Jiang Ting has a rosy complexion, and it's clear she's living a very comfortable life.
She's been doing really well lately; it's like she's experiencing three happy events.
So many good things have happened lately; her marriage application with Lin Yufei has been approved by the authorities.
She has just been promoted to a cadre position in the cultural troupe, and Lin Yufei has also been promoted from deputy battalion commander to battalion commander.
This means all the good things are happening at once.
Although her promotion and Lin Yufei's promotion were both inseparable from Jiang Haoan.
But she was lucky to have such a relationship; some people want it but don't.
Only that idiot Jiang Ning pushed her father away.
Jiang Ning only knew that Jiang Ting was moving to the family compound, but she didn't pay much attention to it.
On October 1st, the military region officially issued promotion notices within the barracks.
The residential compound has been quite lively lately because several military personnel living there have been promoted.
The military spouses were all very proud of their husbands' promotions.
Jiang Ting was one of them.
Jiang Ting is a newly arrived military dependent. I don't know where everyone got the news, but they heard that Jiang Ting's father is a scientific researcher.
Because of her father being a researcher, Jiang Ting became a cadre in the performing arts troupe at such a young age, and her husband is also a battalion-level officer.
Jiang Ting quickly became a hot commodity in the family compound.
The families of soldiers flocked to her, eager to get closer to her.
Jiang Ting was quite polite to the families of military personnel who held higher positions than Lin Yufei in the camp, but her attitude was not so good towards the families of those who held lower positions than Lin Yufei.
She always maintained an air of superiority.
This attitude caused some military families to have disagreements with her.
But all they said were sarcastic remarks. They only dared to talk about it in private, and no one would bring it up in public.
Because she was helping to find cashiers, Jiang Ning had been getting to know many military wives lately.
Previously, Jiang Ning was busy with work at the school and hospital every day, and the military wives had no chance to interact with her.
But during the two months she spent in the family compound due to the kidnapping incident, she developed close relationships with many military wives.
When she first came to the family compound, some unpleasant things happened, and there were some unpleasant rumors.
But later, those rumors gradually disappeared.
Not only because Shen Mo's future is very bright, but also because Jiang Ning herself is very capable, which has made the top leaders of the military region stand on her side.
The military region's top leaders stood up for Jiang Ning more than once.
Before they had any contact with Jiang Ning, they all felt that Jiang Ning was different from them, and that she was a high-minded and aloof person.
She now works in respectable places like hospitals and schools, so of course she doesn't have much in common with military families like them, and might even look down on them.
They definitely wouldn't bother associating with them.
However, although they felt a little jealous, no one dared to cause trouble for Jiang Ning.
Later, during the time Jiang Ning was idle at home, she would often come out and chat with the military dependents. She didn't act superior because she had two respectable jobs. Gradually, everyone could feel that the distance between them had narrowed considerably.
Moreover, in the past two months, when some people in the family compound fell ill and had no choice but to go to Jiang Ning's home, she helped them get treatment without hesitation.
She doesn't accept money.
These good things are something that everyone remembers to some extent.
After Jiang Ning got home from get off work, Shen Mo went to cook, so she sat in the gossip circle again.
Having promised Huang Xiaodong to help her find a cashier, she certainly couldn't shirk her responsibility.
However, she heard some other gossip today.
As they chatted, the topic turned to Jiang Ting.
Hearing them mention Jiang Ting, Jiang Ning wasn't very interested. Everyone privately commented that Jiang Ting was arrogant and thought she had no sense of right or wrong.
In the military region, Jiang Ting looked down on anyone whose rank was lower than Lin Yufei's.
At this moment, Jiang Ting was returning from the camp with Lin Yufei.
They have now obtained their marriage certificate and are living together.
Lin Yufei trains in the army every day, while Jiang Ting is an officer in the cultural troupe. She goes to see Lin Yufei every day after his training and asks him to go home for dinner together.
Lin Yufei knew that his position as battalion commander was somewhat related to Jiang Haoan, and he usually complied with Jiang Ting's requests.
Jiang Ting was in a good mood, but he wasn't.
In the past, Jiang Ting always obeyed him. If he said east, Jiang Ting would never say west.
But now, if anything doesn't go Jiang Ting's way, she'll bring up her researcher father.
When Jiang Ting passed by these military dependents, she never expected that they would openly talk about her.
And in this crowd, she also saw Jiang Ning.
When Jiang Ning was in the family compound, she was studying at school. After graduating, she joined a performing arts troupe.
They were unaware of the stories circulating about Jiang Ning in the family compound.
However, after moving to the family compound, Jiang Ning's name could be heard all the time.
With a little inquiry, she learned almost everything about Jiang Ning's deeds in the family compound.
Jiang Ning is now living in the family compound, where everyone respects her and no one dares to say anything bad about her.
She had thought Jiang Ning was doing well, but she never expected that Jiang Ning was doing even better than she had imagined.
If these people knew that she and Jiang Ning were sisters...
This might be more beneficial for her in the future.
She had previously refused to acknowledge her relationship with Jiang Ning because she didn't want to live in Jiang Ning's shadow.
Now that she's a cadre in the cultural troupe, everyone has to speak nicely to her.
Publicly revealing her relationship with Jiang Ning at this moment will only add to her success.
As everyone was chatting, a joyful and sweet voice rang out beside them:
"younger sister."
Everyone looked over in confusion, and then they saw Jiang Ting walking over arm in arm with Lin Yufei.
She is now almost five months pregnant, and her belly is slightly protruding.
Everyone was wondering who Jiang Ting was calling.
At this moment, Jiang Ting let go of Lin Yufei and walked to Jiang Ning's side. She stepped forward and hugged Jiang Ning's arm. "Little sister, your brother-in-law and I have almost finished tidying up the courtyard we live in these past two days. We are planning to have a housewarming party. Don't forget to come over for a housewarming party tomorrow."
