Beijing city.
The car slowly stopped in front of a gate. Shen Xing rolled down the window and handed his ID in to register.
The guard glanced at the few people, saw Ling Xiao in the back seat, and saluted quickly.
Ling Xiao's tense face rarely showed a smile, "This is my wife, we will come over to complete the registration formalities later."
The car slowly drove into the camp and went directly to the family building.
There are not many officers in the recruit company, so there are few family members living here, especially the few people brought by Ling Xiao, who are not married yet.
Even though Shen Xing had a military post there and was alone, he was too lazy to live here and would rather live in the dormitory.
Having been here last year, Meng Qidi was familiar with the place this time and was not unfamiliar with it at all. She could even say hello to people when passing by several households.
Ling Jinyue was shocked, "Sister-in-law, you're amazing. You know them all."
A sister-in-law who was talking to Meng Qidi nearby laughed and said, "Your sister-in-law has been running around here for a month. How could she not be familiar with her? Is this Captain Ling's sister? Oh, she's so pretty. Xiaoqi, did she say she was?"
Meng Qidi was stunned. She had never expected that the chief of staff's sister-in-law, whom she had only met a few times, would start by acting as a matchmaker. "Um...sister-in-law..."
Ling Jinyue was a little embarrassed. This was her first time coming to Brother Xiao's unit's family building, and she was being played as a matchmaker...
Shen Xing at the side chuckled, "Sister Guo, this is not urgent. My sister-in-law just arrived. You have to let her go up and rest. Our captain will be here soon."
Guo Fengjiao patted herself in annoyance and said, "Look how confused I am. Xiaoqi must be tired after sitting on the train for several days."
"Why are you still here? Why don't you go upstairs?" Ling Xiao came up and asked suspiciously when he saw that everyone was on the second floor.
"I saw Mrs. Guo say a few words. Let's go upstairs." Meng Qidi smiled at Guo Fengjiao and took the lead to go upstairs.
Opening the door of Ling Xiao's dormitory, the layout of the room was simpler than last year, with a lot more furniture, wardrobes, desks, and even a TV.
Meng Qidi knew that Ling Xiao's troops had electricity.
Buckets, kettles, and washbasins were neatly placed beside the bed, and the curtains were hung with colorful patterns.
"The sheets have to wait for you to change them. I don't know what you like. Take a look at what needs to be improved. The dressing table will probably arrive tomorrow." Ling Xiao followed behind Meng Qidi and said softly.
If you look closely, you'll notice that the back of his ears is slightly red.
"fine."
Meng Qidi looked around and confirmed that there was only one bed. Apart from a few pairs of shoes, there was nothing under the bed. He was not going to sleep on a camp bed, so was he planning to sleep on the floor?
With Xiaoqi's affirmation, Ling Xiao breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he likes it, that's good.
Meng Qidi’s things were all sent by mail. There was nothing in the bag except some clothes for changing, so it was placed directly in the closet.
After putting the things away, Ling Xiao led a few people directly to the cafeteria.
Fearing that Meng Qidi was too tired, after dinner, Ling Xiao sent away the two annoying people who followed her.
"Why did you let them go?"
"They are so blind. They don't know you are tired. Go back and have a good sleep. You will find out what happened."
Meng Qidi nodded helplessly, "Aren't you on night duty?"
"No need. The impromptu inspection mission tonight is given to Shen Xing." The wife is more important.
When they returned to the house, there were only two of them left.
Meng Qidi glanced around. For the next three or four years, this place would probably be her home...
Thinking of something, Meng Qidi suddenly asked, "Where do you sleep at night?"
"Sleeping on a bed? We can sleep on the floor." Ling Xiao explained quickly, "Camping beds are hard to get. Besides, if I bring a bed over, they will probably misunderstand that we are sleeping in separate beds, which will have a bad influence."
Ling Xiao gently clenched his hands behind his back. This excuse was perfect and excellent.
Meng Qidi looked at him calmly, "So, our company commander took the camp bed out of his room as well?"
After all, she had been coming here for such a long time, so she knew exactly what was going on with Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao...
I was careless.
I poured some hot water for Meng Qidi to wash her face and soak her feet. It was early, so I asked her to take a nap first, and then I would fetch water for her to take a bath later.
After a comfortable foot soak, Meng Qidi’s fatigue from the car ride was relieved a lot. She was not sleepy at first, but now she simply climbed onto the bed and took a nap.
The bed sheets were newly changed and had a faint smell of being dried in the sun.
When she felt sleepy, she opened her eyes slightly, glanced at Ling Xiao who was busy in the room, closed her eyes gently, and fell asleep this time.
Seeing that she fell asleep, Ling Xiao moved more gently and came over to gently pull the corner of her quilt.
When Meng Qidi woke up from her nap, it was already completely dark outside. The room was quiet and there was no sign of Ling Xiao.
After washing his face, Ling Xiao came back with a lunch box, a faint smile on his face, "Are you awake? I just made some food, eat it while it's hot."
Meng Qidi nodded. She had just woken up, so she didn't say much. She leaned against the door and waited for him to come over before slowly moving away. "What time is it? Do you still have food?"
"It's around nine o'clock. I asked the kitchen to prepare a few dishes you like."
Ling Xiao opened the lunch box on the dining table.
"It's nine o'clock and you still ask someone to cook?" Meng Qidi sat down speechlessly. Why did she have to trouble others?
"I heard you were coming and waited for you. It's a token of my appreciation, so I just brought it here."
In fact, the army was particularly welcoming of his wife to join them, so when they heard that Xiaoqi was hungry, everyone was very enthusiastic.
Meng Qidi was helpless, "Okay, when the package arrives, I'll bring some cured fish and meat from home over."
Since the other person has such intention, she can't just take it with a clear conscience.
"How much did you send? Do you need to pick it up?" Ling Xiao picked up the enamel pot and poured her a cup of hot water.
"No, I paid for it. They said they would deliver it directly to the entrance of the army. It's not much. Mom can't eat the bacon either, so they asked me to bring all the bacon from home."
Meng Qidi took a bite of food and paused, looking up at him, "Have you eaten?"
"Have you eaten? Eat quickly. I'll take you out for a walk later." Ling Xiao bent down to make the bed.
Meng Qidi asked in surprise while eating, "You guys are still going out shopping tonight?"
She came here to cook last year, and basically just took a look around and left.
"Yes, there is a social gathering, a social gathering for our recruit company and the cultural troupe."
Ling Xiao grabbed the two corners of the quilt and shook it hard to smooth it out. He folded the quilt back and forth several times, and the quilt that was originally rolled into a ball became the legendary tofu block.
Meng Qidi looked at him with interest, "Is this the kind of social gathering I was thinking of?"
It couldn't be the kind of social gathering she saw in the novels in space.
"Should it be?"
"Do you have any suitors? Or in other words, is there anyone in the art troupe who likes you? Do you need me to give up my position?" Meng Qidi rarely joked.
Ling Xiao was not annoyed, "Maybe you don't need to give up your seat. Last time at the New Year's party, your teacher sang a song and introduced me to everyone, saying that I was his student's man."
Meng Qidi...
Well, the old man directly declared sovereignty...
