Chapter 145 Gossip
Fan Xiaomei's man is in charge of logistics in the army. This position may not sound very respectable, but it is a good position with both benefits and real power.
They also have more opportunities to contact senior officials than ordinary battalion-level officers, so naturally they can get more gossip.
Which military wife doesn't hope that her husband will be successful and become the wife of a chief officer?
Now, when I heard what Fan Xiaomei said, my ears immediately pricked up.
"Hongmei, what news did your old Wu get? Tell us quickly."
Another military wife named Guo Qian asked impatiently.
Guo Qian is 36 years old this year and her man is four years older than her.
Her husband has been working as battalion commander for eight years without moving.
When she learned the news that Commander Jiang was stepping down, she thought that her husband was also a veteran and had long been looking forward to his being promoted to a higher position.
Although the families of officers above the rank of battalion commander all live in the officers' compound.
But even in the same compound, people are divided into different levels.
Let’s not talk about anything else, just talk about this house.
The house in front of their battalion-level cadres' unit was small in area, as was the yard, and it was very noisy with people coming and going outside.
The higher the rank of an officer, the further back in the house he is given and the larger its area.
And the further you go to the back, the quieter and more comfortable it becomes.
The most important thing is that after becoming a leader, the army will send volunteers to serve at home, and they will no longer have to do housework.
I can’t even imagine how comfortable that day would be.
But they can only think about such comfortable days.
After all, she knew in her heart that those who could become leaders now were the ones who founded the country in the past. Even if her man risked his life, he might not be able to get it back.
Fan Xiaomei glanced at Guo Qian and said, "Sister Guo, you are really putting me in a difficult position.
You are well aware of the rules of this unit.
The army chief made the decision, and even if my wife heard something, she wouldn't dare tell me!"
"Sister-in-law, if you really want Brother Sun to move up, you might as well pay attention to Captain Chen's family.
If you find out anything is going on in their house, you should act quickly, that's all."
Guo Qian quickly put away her thoughts and smiled, "Hey, how can I control the promotion of these gentlemen?
Besides, whoever the leader wants to promote must have military achievements to prove his point.
Our grandson just spent a few more years in the army and has no military merits, so how could he get a chance?"
"Besides, Captain Qin is the division commander's favorite and has a lot of military achievements to his name.
Even if the division commander promotes Captain Qin this time, it is only natural."
Fan Xiaomei looked around again and said to Guo Qian mysteriously, "Sister-in-law, can't we just earn this military merit?
No matter how much the higher-ups like Captain Qin, they can't just promote him up without any reason, right?
Tell Brother Sun that if there are any missions in the army recently, be proactive in striving for them. As long as you gain military merit, you will be promoted to a higher position, right?"
After Fan Xiaomei finished speaking, she turned around and went into the house.
She became good friends with Liu Quanfeng, hoping that with the help of Commander Jiang, she could help her man when the opportunity arose.
Even if you can't get her a man, at least you can arrange a good job for her in a factory or a supply and marketing cooperative.
But this time, Su Qiao had just arrived at the military region and he made a big deal out of a small conflict between the children.
With the resignation of Group Leader Jiang, all her years of work were ruined.
Naturally, she would not let Qin Zhengrong and Su Qiao have an easy time.
Although she cannot come forward directly, as long as interests are involved, there will naturally be people willing to come forward.
Guo Qian stayed where she was, stunned for a long time before she came to her senses.
What this means is that in order to promote Qin Zhengrong with justification, the higher-ups specially prepared a mission to cover for Qin Zhengrong.
What if their grandson fought for and completed this mission...
The more Guo Qian thought about it, the more excited she became, and she hurried home.
Su Qiao had no idea what was happening outside.
It was a rare moment for her to be alone, so after closing the door, she slipped into the space.
Outside the space building, there is actually a small open space next to the spiritual spring.
But there was nothing on the vacant lot; it was just deserted.
Su Qiao felt it was a pity.
Since Qin Zhengrong didn't let her do any work outside, she cleaned up that small piece of land in the space.
Then I took a comfortable bath in the spiritual spring water.
After coming out of the bath, I saw the pile of things she had moved out from Su's house.
I was thinking that it was about time to find an opportunity to hand over those cultural relics to the country.
When she went to the city with Shen Juan yesterday, she also specifically inquired about the location of the welfare home.
She planned to reduce the size of the clothes she moved from the Su family and donate them to the children in the welfare home.
Su Qiao hurried out of the space before Qin Zhengrong came back.
As soon as I came out, I heard the sound of a door opening outside the courtyard.
Qin Zhengrong walked in from outside holding Sanbao, and Han Tengfei followed behind him.
Before Qin Zhengrong could say anything, Han Tengfei stood at attention and gave Su Qiao a military salute.
"Sister-in-law, I had dinner at your house last night and I'm sorry to have caused you trouble.
Today, on behalf of my uncle, I am here to invite your family to have dinner at my uncle's house tonight."
Su Qiao: ...
She was stunned for a moment by Han Tengfei's formal attitude.
Wait for Han Teng to fly away.
She just found out from Qin Zhengrong.
Han Tengfei's uncle is a division commander.
In other words, the highest-ranking leader of the entire military region is Han Tengfei's uncle.
Some time ago, Han Tengfei was on a mission outside and the division commander returned to Beijing for a meeting, so she hadn't seen them.
After listening to Qin Zhengrong's explanation, Su Qiao unconsciously sat up straight with some nervousness, and clutched her trouser legs tightly at the knees.
"Brother Zhengrong, do you mean that we should go to the teacher's house for dinner?"
In her two lifetimes, the highest-ranking official she had ever seen was the head of a regiment.
Moreover, when she met Commander Jiang, she only wanted to protect her children and had no idea what fear was.
When you realize you are afraid afterwards, the arrow has already been shot and there is no turning back.
Qin Zhengrong saw the little woman's nervousness.
He held her hand and said, "Don't be nervous, Qiao Qiao.
The division commander and his wife are both very easy-going people, and I have benefited greatly from their care during my years in the army.
They just came back and heard that I got married and wanted to meet you, so they asked us to come over for a quick meal. "
Su Qiao's face was still tense involuntarily, but she said, "Brother Zhengrong, I'm not nervous."
"So what gifts should we prepare to bring to our teacher's home?"
