After the noodles were served, the two sat opposite each other.
Jiang Qingyue took the initiative to speak, "Zhou Zhengting, your mother's illness and hospitalization, no matter what, the source of the fault is mine, I am very sorry."
"As for your decision to join the army, I respect your decision, but——"
"When you signed up, you wrote that you were divorced, right?"
Zhou Zhengting was originally listening to her with his head down, but was suddenly startled when he heard her words, then raised his eyes to look at her.
"I am currently married, so of course I filled in married."
Jiang Qingyue sighed, "Then I'm afraid we can't get divorced for the time being."
Zhou Zhengting was puzzled, "Why?"
"Think about it. You filled in married on your application form, but when you report to the army for review, you're divorced. Do you think you can pass the review?"
"I can explain."
"How do you explain it? You said that because you got the qualification to join the army, you immediately went through the divorce procedures with me. Do you think the leaders of the army will not question your character?"
Zhou Zhengting was left speechless.
Jiang Qingyue paused for a moment, then continued, "Review is only one aspect. If my father knew that you were going to join the army now, he would not write the divorce documents for you. Can you afford to waste time?"
Zhou Zhengting's face darkened, and it was obvious that what he said hit the nail on the head.
"So what do you say we should do?"
Jiang Qingyue narrowed her eyes and said, "Let's follow the previous agreement and wait until you come back from vacation during the Spring Festival this year to get a divorce! By then, you only need to get the divorce approval from the military leader, and we can go through the divorce procedures directly without going through my father."
After listening to Jiang Qingyue's advice, Zhou Zhengting seemed to secretly breathe a sigh of relief for some reason.
"Okay, then let's wait until the Spring Festival to go through the divorce procedures."
Seeing that he agreed, Jiang Qingyue smiled faintly, "Okay."
After the discussion, Jiang Qingyue didn't want to face him anymore, so she got up and sat on the kang.
"Eat quickly. After you finish eating, go back to my father to get a certificate to join the army."
Zhou Zhengting then realized that there was only a bowl of noodles on the table, "Why don't you eat?"
Jiang Qingyue casually replied, "I ate a little at my mother's house just now, so I'm not too hungry."
Zhou Zhengting glanced at her out of the corner of his eye and felt that in just over ten days, she seemed to have become much thinner than before.
But the current relationship between them is not suitable for expressing concern.
Zhou Zhengting lowered his head and began to eat noodles.
After taking just one bite, his chopsticks suddenly stopped.
Just now, when I saw her talking, she seemed very clear and calm.
But I didn’t expect that I forgot to add salt to the noodles?
Zhou Zhengting was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and started eating.
After finishing a bowl of noodles, Jiang Qingyue put down the newspaper in her hand and stood up.
"The guests at home should have left. Let's go find my father now."
Zhou Zhengting nodded and followed Jiang Qingyue out the door.
As soon as the two men arrived at the captain's house, they saw Song Zhihe taking the commune leaders out of the house and preparing to drive back.
When Song Zhihe saw Jiang Qingyue and the educated youth coming together, he was obviously stunned.
Then I chose to go up and say hello openly.
"Comrade Jiang, we are ready to leave. Can you please go to the newspaper office again in a couple of days when you have time? I will have someone send you the remaining royalties."
Jiang Qingyue originally thought that twenty yuan was the fixed price, but she didn't expect there was an amount that exceeded the advance payment.
I quickly and happily agreed, "Okay, after I'm done with these two days, I'll go to the newspaper office to find Editor-in-Chief Song."
"Okay then, we'll go back first. Bye!"
"Editor Song, goodbye!"
While the two were talking, Zhou Zhengting just stood aside silently without even looking at them.
Song Zhihe just felt that something was strange, but he couldn't put his finger on it.
He just nodded politely and drove away.
After everyone left, Jiang Qingyue and Zhou Zhengting returned to her parents' home.
At the beginning, Zhou Zhengting went in alone to talk to Jiang Baoye.
After Zhou Zhengting came out, Jiang Baoye called Jiang Qingyue in directly.
He asked bluntly, "What does Zhou Zhengting want to do? I thought his attitude towards you had changed. How come he wants to join the army just after returning to the capital? What are you going to do in the future?!"
Seeing her father so angry, Jiang Qingyue felt uncomfortable too.
But he still persuaded her, "Dad, it's a good thing to be a soldier and serve the motherland. A man should have ambitions to go far and wide. Just let him go!"
"Besides, I'm an elementary school teacher now. I won't be exposed to the wind and the sun anymore, and the money I earn is enough for me to eat. It doesn't matter whether he's here or not."
Seeing his daughter say this, Jiang Baoye couldn't help but sigh, "I understand the truth, but when will he come back after he leaves?"
Jiang Qingyue was also very confused and didn't know how to explain it to her father.
If nothing unexpected happens, Zhou Zhengting will probably not come back after leaving this time!
Seeing his daughter so depressed, Jiang Baoye actually comforted her, "Don't be too sad. When he succeeds in the army, he can take you to accompany him. Maybe it won't take long!"
Jiang Qingyue smiled bitterly, "Well, Dad, I understand. Please give him a certificate and let him report as soon as possible."
Jiang Baoye sighed helplessly, but still issued the certificate.
After going out, Jiang Qingyue immediately saw Zhou Zhengting standing in the yard.
After just a few days, this man became as unfamiliar as he was at the beginning.
So the changes in their relationship before he left were all her illusion?
But Jiang Qingyue is not the kind of person who can't figure things out.
