Chapter 1275: Great Courtesy 5

Feng Qingxue nodded as she listened.

There was a faint smile on her lips, and her face was as beautiful as the sunset glow.

Zhou Zhou looked up at the sunset glow that faded due to shame in Feng Qingxue's smile, and reached out to tug at Zheng Huihui, interrupting her chattering, "Huihui, we've been out for half an hour. If we don't go back, Sister Ai Dang and the others will start to worry."

After being reminded by her, Zheng Huihui seemed to have just sobered up from the excitement of seeing Feng Qingxue. She smiled at Feng Qingxue shyly, revealing a mouthful of snow-white teeth, "I'm sorry, Comrade Qingxue, I'm just like this. No matter what, once I get excited about talking, I can't stop. You must be tired of listening to me for such a long time, right?"

"How could that be?" Feng Qingxue smiled back, her brightness revealing tenderness, but she did not reveal her true emotions, "I am very grateful that you brought the news about the child's father, really!"

"That's good!" Zheng Huihui patted her chest. "I'll write to Xiaoxiao right after I get back and ask her to find out more about the Army Chief. I'll pass it on to you. What do you think?"

Feng Qingxue declined politely, "Thank you for your kindness. We won't bother you, Comrade Zheng Huihui. It's already May, and the meeting has been over for a long time. The father of the child should have left the capital. Even if he hasn't left, he still has work to do. What if I deliberately inquire about his whereabouts and cause trouble for Comrade Wu Xiaoxiao? From what you said, Comrade Wu Xiaoxiao is not married yet, so we must not give outsiders a handle to talk about her, so as not to become the second Comrade Han Aiguo. Comrade Zheng Huihui came to join the team, and her most important task at present is to study the re-education of poor and lower-middle peasants well. We can't waste your study time because of personal family reasons."

Zhou Zhou nodded desperately beside him and said softly, "Yes, Huihui, we are here to respond to the call to learn about the re-education of poor and lower-middle peasants, not to ask someone in the capital for information from thousands of miles away. How bad would that be? The compound is not a place where ordinary people like us can inquire, and people will think we have ulterior motives."

Zheng Huihui had no choice but to give up, and then said to Feng Qingxue: "Comrade Qingxue, I feel so close to you when I see you. Can I come to chat with you later? We are new here, and we don’t get along with many people here. I feel very disappointed."

"Huihui, don't you want to talk to me?" Zhou Zhou was sad.

She looked weak to begin with, and when she was sad, her eyes sparkled, instantly arousing the sympathy of others.

Zheng Huihui hurriedly said, "How could that be? We are good friends, good friends who live on the same kang!"

"Yes, good friends!" Zhou Zhou burst into laughter and held her hand. "Since we are good friends, let's go back quickly. We can sleep in the same bed and talk in private at night! Comrade Qingxue, let's go!"

Zheng Huihui was interrupted by her and when she reacted, Feng Qingxue was no longer at the door.

"Zhou Zhou!" On the way back, Zheng Huihui angrily shook off Zhou Zhou's hand, "Look at you, I had a lot of things to say to get closer to the wife of the Army Chief, but you ruined it."

Zhou Zhou had a bewildered look on his face. He blinked his innocent eyes, and his sockets soon filled with tears, making him look even more pitiful.

Seeing her like this, Zheng Huihui actually felt a deep sense of guilt.

"Okay, okay, I'm just talking, don't cry. If you cry, people will think I'm bullying you!"
