Su Jinyue handed the tea to Tian Cuifang and sat down beside her.
"Xiao Su, I heard that the regiment commander was transferred from the capital. The conditions here are far different from those in the capital, right?" Tian Cuifang said with a smile. She had always longed to visit the capital, the capital of China. If she could visit the capital once in her lifetime, she would have no regrets.
Su Jinyue smiled and nodded, "This place is also nice." For her, it didn't matter where she was as long as Yi Han was by her side.
"You're new here, so you're feeling fresh. You'll see later. Not only is it incredibly cold here in the winter, but it's also incredibly inconvenient to go out unless you have a car." Tian Cuifang picked up the teacup on the table, blew on it, and took a sip. It was incredibly sweet and lingering on her lips and teeth. "Is this tea from the capital? It's definitely different from the tea here. Even someone like me who doesn't drink tea finds it delicious."
Su Jinyue smiled and nodded, then stood up and walked towards the kitchen. "I brought a lot of tea this time. I'll get some for you."
"Xiao Su, no thanks. I don't drink tea." Tian Cuifang stood up and pulled Su Jinyue back. This tea was so delicious, it must be very expensive. How could she have the nerve to ask for Xiao Su's tea?
"Aunt Wang, those tea leaves are worthless. I picked them and dried them myself," Su Jinyue said with a smile. Now, in her Golden Leaf Realm, the mountains and plains were covered with frost-leaved grass and trees. She could have as much as she wanted.
"You made the tea yourself?" Tian Cuifang asked in surprise. Are there mountains in the capital? Are there tea trees there?
Su Jinyue smiled and nodded. "This tea is not really tea. It is a herb called frostleaf grass. It nourishes the lungs and beautifies the skin. It is cheaper than ordinary tea."
"I've never heard of herbs being used to make tea, and how do you know about this? Are you a doctor?" Tian Cuifang asked curiously. Herbs are also medicine, and medicine is toxic. If you don't know some medical skills, you wouldn't dare drink them as tea. At least she wouldn't dare.
"My master is a village doctor. I've been following him to the mountains to collect herbs since I was a child," Su Jinyue said. She didn't want anyone to know she was a doctor.
"So you're not from Beijing?" Tian Cuifang asked. Zhan Yihan, who was so young to become a group leader, must have a distinguished background. While she didn't understand the power struggles of the great families, she knew that a good match was a good match. Xiao Su's master was a village doctor, so he wasn't from Beijing.
"I'm from Licheng." Su Jinyue walked into the kitchen, took out a bag of frost leaf grass tea and handed it to Tian Cuifang.
Tian Cuifang took it with a smile, "Then I won't be polite with you, Xiao Su, thank you! You are from Licheng, how come you married to the capital?" As far as she knew, Licheng was just a remote small provincial town.
"My old man, Zhan, and I are from the same village," Su Jinyue said. Yihan, at such a young age, had become a regimental commander, and most people would speculate whether he had powerful backers. This was understandable, as military rank, unlike other positions, was earned through meritorious service. At Yihan's age, achieving one or two military achievements was already considered quite remarkable.
"I thought Captain Zhan was from Beijing," Tian Cuifang said, a bit incredulous. Her family's Old Wang hadn't achieved his current position overnight; it was the product of countless near misses and countless injuries. How had Zhan Yihan, a peasant soldier from a mountain village with no background, achieved this?
"Is anyone home?" Su Jinyue was about to speak when another shout came from outside the door.
Su Jinyue stood up, went out and opened the gate, only to see Zhou Yufeng and a middle-aged woman who looked somewhat similar to her standing outside. She thought the other person should be Zhou Yufeng's mother.
"Hello, Sister-in-law Zhan! I'm Li Li, Yufeng's mother. I heard that this child was ignorant and offended you, so I brought her here to apologize to you." Li Li handed Su Jinyue a basket of apples and a can of malted milk. "Please keep these. Thank you for saving my father-in-law."
Knowing that her daughter had offended the new leader without knowing what was good for her, she was almost furious. However, no matter how angry she was, she had to resolve the matter. Otherwise, wouldn't her husband, Old Zhou, have to eat the first pie in the row in the future? So she brought Yufeng and gifts with her, hoping that the other party would forgive them.
He turned to look at Zhou Yufeng, "Why don't you apologize to Sister Zhan!" How could this person be so clueless? Xiaolan was still the best, sensible and well-behaved, never causing trouble for them. Unlike her, who hadn't even arrived at the military family compound yet, she had already caused them such a big trouble.
"I'm sorry! I was wrong!" Zhou Yufeng shrank her neck and apologized quickly.
Su Jinyue reached out and pushed the things back, "I have received your kindness, but you should take the things back." She didn't like this mother and daughter very much, not to mention Zhou Yufeng. Zhou Yufeng's mother looked very worldly, and she didn't like dealing with such people.
"Sister-in-law Zhan, are you unwilling to forgive us? Yufeng really knows she is wrong, so please forgive her this time." Seeing that Su Jinyue did not accept the things, Li Li became a little anxious.
