While Xiaohong and Feng Qingxue were busy in the kitchen, Chen Ming and Lu Jiang were discussing the current situation in a low voice in the main room. As for the two children, they had already run to the balcony to eat the spiced peanuts that Lu Jiang had picked for them.

Even if Chen Ming was capable, such fragrant and crispy snacks were rarely found at home.

"Since I'm in this position, I have good relations with people in every unit. Even those people who are engaged in revolution dare not offend me. After all, food is the most important thing for the people. Don't worry about you outside. In the future, just like in the past few years, people who come to see my uncle will just go through the motions and won't do anything ruthless. With me above and Wang Zhengguo below, we will try our best to prevent anything fatal from happening."

Lu Jiang sighed and said, "Old squad leader, I have been thankful for you all these years."

Chen Ming waved his hand and said, "If it weren't for my uncle's favor, I wouldn't be who I am today. I just did my best."

Having said that, he changed the subject and turned his head to look in the direction of the kitchen. Chen Ming joked, "Your wife is really good. She has generous manners and does things in a generous way. Most importantly, she has a clean and upright appearance."

Appearance is determined by the heart. A person with a decent face and clear eyes cannot be a bad person.

"Of course, don't you see whose daughter-in-law she is!" Lu Jiang had a proud look on his face, "I am the same as you were when you insisted on marrying my sister-in-law."

Chen Ming immediately understood how to treat Feng Qingxue in the future. He must pay more attention to her than now.

Back then, he was an officer of medium rank and had a bright future. There were many beautiful girls in the army who were eyeing him, but he didn't like any of them. He only wanted to go home and marry Xiaohong. For this reason, he even contradicted the old regiment commander who had introduced him to a girl. Fortunately, the old regiment commander was a good man and didn't hold a grudge against him because of this incident.

There are three thousand rivers of water, but I only take a sip.

"Your sister-in-law is Wang Zhengguo's niece, right? Although Wang Zhengguo sometimes has his own little thoughts, he is a decent person and knows how to repay kindness. It is also thanks to him that my uncle has the stable life he has now. In the future, when you become his nephew-in-law, he will only be more dedicated."

Lu Jiang smiled and said, "Uncle Wang has excellent character. As for his thoughts, how many people in the world can escape this? Aren't they all running for profit?"

After hearing this, Chen Ming agreed very much.

At this moment, as the one among the three thousand weak waters, Xiaohong wiped her hands and took off her apron, "Sister Qingxue, let's bring the dishes into the house and prepare to eat." According to her observation, Lu Jiang is a really good partner. He speaks and acts cleanly and efficiently, has good cooking skills, and the dishes he cooks taste much better than her own.

"Okay, sister-in-law."

Xiaohong was afraid that the dishes and sesame cakes would not be enough for everyone, so while they were halfway through their meal, she went to the kitchen and fried some chopped green onions and cabbage leaves with lard, and cooked half a pot of noodles. Except for the two children, all the adults had a big bowl of noodles each.

Feng Qingxue went over to help. Looking at the empty oil tank, she reminded herself to find an excuse to send some oil to the Chen family in the next few days.

After eating and drinking, Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue did not stay long because Chen Ming had to go to work.

After saying goodbye, the two went to visit Lu Jiang's comrade Xu Aiguo who had transferred to the coal factory. On the way, they bought another gift and used up all the egg and sugar coupons that Lu Jiang had.

Feng Qingxue didn't feel it was a pity, as she had plenty of supplies in her space.

Lu Jiang didn't think it was a waste. The so-called favor is a give-and-take. If he doesn't visit now, will he come when something happens? In the future, when he is not at home, if his family encounters difficulties, he will have to rely on these comrades to lend a hand.
