Chapter 43
"good."
Tang Wan was too embarrassed to look him in the eye, her ears turned red, and she climbed up to the middle floor.
Lu Huaijing didn't leave at first, but stood beside her and waited for her to climb up safely before he took the cup to wash it.
Zhang Hongyan, who was working downstairs, saw all this. She raised her hand and gently stroked the sleeping Shengli's head, and whispered to Tang Wan:
"Your lover really loves you."
"Why would a rough guy like him feel so bad?"
Although she said this, Tang Wan's face had already turned red. From the current perspective, this man was quite to her liking.
Qiu Dazao, who was sitting in the middle shop opposite her, heard everything and said with a curled lip, "What are you so proud of?"
Tang Wan didn't hear these words. After all, the original owner had bled on the day of the time travel, so she felt a little weak.
She was never one to mistreat herself, and she fell asleep the moment she lay down.
They swayed until five or six in the afternoon of the next day, and had another meal on the train.
The people working on the opposite shop had already gotten off the train. Zhang Hongyan had rested for a night and was in great shape today, looking full of energy.
"Is it almost there?"
Tang Wan came down from the middle bunk, sat on the lower bunk of Lu Huaijing and asked him, he seldom slept on the train.
He was sitting neatly in the lower shop, holding a book in his hand. Although he had not had a good rest, he looked particularly energetic.
"Well, the next stop is here."
"Then I'll clean up."
Tang Wan began to pack her luggage, and Lu Huaijing and Tang Zhou also packed up their things.
Zhang Hongyan was surprised. She was just packing her luggage. "Are you getting off here too?"
She had a vague feeling that they were probably going to the same troop station.
"yes."
Seeing that Zhang Hongyan had also packed her luggage, Tang Wan realized that they were indeed going the same way.
What they didn't expect was that Qiu Dazao also came down with his luggage.
Tang Wan was about to say something when the train arrived at the station. Lu Huaijing, carrying a lot of bags in his hands, said to Tang Wan and Tang Zhou:
"Stay close to me."
"good."
Tang Wan was also afraid of getting lost, after all, she was unfamiliar with the place, so she quietly tugged at the corner of Lu Huaijing's clothes and held Tang Zhou's hand tightly.
Zhang Hongyan was also afraid of losing Wang Shengli, so naturally she had no time to talk more with Tang Wan.
There were so many people that they soon lost contact with Zhang Hongyan.
Even Qiu Dazao was nowhere to be seen.
Lu Huaijing had long legs. He walked in front and quickly led Tang Wan and the others out of the crowd.
At the entrance of the train station, a man in military uniform was standing in front of a jeep. When he saw Lu Huaijing, he immediately waved his hands excitedly.
"Deputy Colonel Lu!"
The man rushed over and grinned at Tang Wan: "Hello sister-in-law, I am Xiao Du, the guard of the Deputy Lu Regiment."
After he finished speaking, his eyes fell on Tang Zhou again, "This must be my sister-in-law's younger brother, he's so handsome!"
It's obvious that Xiao Du is a social expert. He can talk to everyone in just a few words.
"Hello, Xiao Du."
Tang Wan nodded slightly. She didn't expect that Lu Huaijing was already the deputy head at such a young age.
Thinking of what she had learned in history books, Tang Wan suddenly understood that it was wartime now.
Lu Huaijing must have experienced many wars since he joined the army. Not to mention the distant past, the Zhenbao Island self-defense incident happened just last year.
Therefore, since he had made many contributions, he was naturally promoted faster than later generations.
While Tang Wan was lost in thought, Lu Huaijing put the luggage in his hand into the car, and then put Tang Wan's things in.
"You and Zhou Zhou sit in the back."
Lu Huaijing gentlemanly opened the car door for her. Compared with her indifference, Tang Zhou's shining eyes seemed more normal.
"Brother-in-law, this car is so impressive."
Tang Zhou looked carefully at everything in the car. Although the Tang family was well-off and had wealth in the past.
However, the car could not be used at all. Tang Wan then realized that she had been too nonchalant.
After all, she had ridden in all kinds of cars before traveling through time, so she showed a hint of surprise at the right time, with a soft tone.
"Of course it is magnificent. If your brother-in-law hadn't risked his life and made so many military achievements, you wouldn't have had the chance to ride in this car."
Tang Wan turned her head and looked at Lu Huaijing with a hint of heartache in her eyes. Sure enough, Lu Huaijing's heart softened immediately.
It turned out that his wife was distracted just now because she was worried about him.
A hint of tenderness flashed across Lu Huaijing's cold face, and he said in a sonorous and powerful voice: "It is the duty of every soldier to contribute to the country."
When Xiao Du heard Lu Huaijing's gentle tone, he looked as if he had seen a ghost!
Deputy Commander Lu went back home and seemed like a different person!
Is this still their cold-faced and unsympathetic vice-captain? !
His eyes widened, looking somewhat funny, and Tang Wan happened to see it.
"Xiao Du, what's wrong with you?"
"No…nothing."
Xiao Du scratched the back of his head in embarrassment. Lu Huaijing had already taken the passenger seat and glanced at him with disdain.
"What are you still standing there for? Come on."
This tone and expression, this is their deputy regiment commander Lu, Xiao Du instantly became energetic and stood up straight.
"Reporting to the deputy regiment commander, the new political commissar said that his wife will also arrive today, and the political commissar has entrusted me to take his wife and child back with him!"
"Why don't you go find someone quickly?"
Lu Huaijing waved his hand. He had heard before going to East City that a new political commissar would be arriving, and it seemed that the person had already arrived.
"Brother-in-law, is this car allocated to you by the army?"
Tang Zhou excitedly touched the seat cushion, then touched the car door, his little face flushed with excitement.
"Just loaning it to me for use."
Lu Huaijing's tone softened a little. Thinking of Tang Zhou's great strength, he suddenly said:
"Zhou Zhou, you are very strong. Have you ever thought about joining the army?"
"Can I?"
Tang Zhou's eyes lit up, and he quickly thought of his family. He lowered his head and said sadly:
"Thank you for your kindness, brother-in-law. I'm afraid I'll get you into trouble."
With his family background, he has no chance of getting in. If his brother-in-law forces himself, it might affect his brother-in-law.
Although Tang Zhou is young, he has experienced so many things and has grown a lot now.
"Let's talk about it after we sort out the family issues."
Tang Wan's eyes were full of determination. As long as her parents' background changed, nothing would be a problem.
"Yes, I'll do as you say."
Lu Huaijing also understood their concerns, but his leader was a man who valued talent.
When Zhou Zhou is older, he will take him to the leader's place for a walk, maybe there will be a turning point.
From a distance, Tang Wan caught a glimpse of Xiao Du walking in front, carrying a suitcase bag in his hands, and two familiar figures following behind him.
Tang Zhou waved excitedly to the outside world, "Victory!"
It turns out that Zhang Hongyan is the new political commissar's wife. They really are destined to be together.
"Big sister, what a coincidence, we are going to the same unit."
Zhang Hongyan grinned and smiled warmly at them, and Lu Huaijing nodded slightly in greeting.
The group put their luggage in the trunk, and Tang Wan quickly moved over to make some space.
"Sister-in-law, let's squeeze in."
"Okay."
Zhang Hongyan and Wang Shengli had just sat in the car, and Xiao Du also got in the driver's seat. Just as they were about to start the car, a figure suddenly rushed in front of the car.
"Are you going to the army? Give me a ride."
