Chen Chuning had originally planned to ask where Ding Hongye's home was along the way, but now, with just two sentences, he had found a kind-hearted guide like Zhang Yuelan for nothing.
Shen Chuning's compliments came out as if they were free, and Zhang Yuelan's mouth was grinning to the back of her ears.
When they were in a deserted place, Zhang Yuelan pulled Shen Chuning to speak from the heart, "Ningning, did you send Captain Zhou to training just now?"
Shen Chuning nodded.
"Sister-in-law, tell you, do you know what they were doing when they got together just now?" Zhang Yuelan asked deliberately keeping the question in suspense.
Seeing the curious expression on Shen Chuning’s face, she continued, “It’s about Captain Cricket Zhou going to training!
Those who go to the training camp this time are not only people from our military region, but also the elites selected from military regions across the country are all put together for training. As long as they pass the assessment of this training camp, the organization will assign them tasks. Once the task is completed and the credit is obtained, they can wait for promotion! ”
Shen Chu Ning was only concerned about not wanting to part with her man before, but she really didn't know that this training camp for her man would be like this.
Seeing her immature and ignorant appearance, Zhang Yuelan couldn't help but admonish her, "Sister, your sister-in-law gets along well with you, so I'll talk to you a little more.
There are only a few top positions in our army, but there are so many people competing for them. I wonder how many people are eyeing an opportunity like this that is sure to get promotion!
When men are fighting for their lives outside, we must guard the rear well and not let others plot against us, otherwise we will lose all the merits that men have fought for with their lives. ”
Shen Chuning nodded.
Before she joined the army, Zhou Yubai comforted her and said that their army was a big family, everyone was brothers and sisters, and they would help each other, so she didn't need to be afraid or have any psychological burden.
But now Shen Chu Ning has almost understood it.
The reason why Zhou Yubai felt that everyone in the army was a brother or sister was that he and his comrades-in-arms had fought for their lives on the battlefield with their blood and lives.
To him, all his comrades are people he can trust, and are naturally like his brothers and sisters.
But there is no life-and-death friendship between military wives, and their thoughts are definitely different.
Shen Chuning wrote down Zhang Yuelan's words and expressed his gratitude to her.
As they were talking, they arrived at Ding Hongye's door.
Ding Hongye had just finished cleaning up when she heard a knock on the door.
When she opened the door and saw that it was Shen Chu Ning, her eyes were full of surprise, “Ning Ning, you’re here, I just packed up and was about to go find you!”
"This sister-in-law is..."
After Ding Hongye greeted Shen Chuning, she looked at Zhang Yuelan.
Zhang Yuelan extended her hand towards Ding Hongye and introduced herself, "Comrade Ding, hello, my name is Zhang Yuelan, I am Deng Tao's wife, my husband is at the same level as yours, and he is also a battalion commander."
There are not many high-level positions in a military region, but the number of battalion-level and deputy battalion-level cadres can be described as numerous as the hairs on a cow.
Ding Hongye quickly shook hands with Zhang Yuelan, "Hello, Sister Zhang, hello, please come in and have a seat. I'll make you a cup of hot tea."
Zhang Yuelan waved her hand, "Don't bother, didn't you and Ningning agree to go around the military area?
It just so happens that I have nothing to do today, so I'll show you around. ”
"Thank you, sister-in-law." Ding Hongye hurriedly picked up a small basket, locked the door, and went out with Zhang Yuelan and Shen Chuning.
When the three of them left, the military wives were still gathered there chatting.
When Shen Chu Ning came just now, he was stared at by everyone, but he didn't think there was anything wrong.
At this time, fewer people were looking at her, and she suddenly felt an unfriendly gaze.
She turned her head and followed the gaze, and saw a familiar figure.
For a moment, she couldn't remember who that figure was.
Logically speaking, the only people she knew here were Zhou Yubai and her third brother. She really couldn't remember any female comrades she knew here.
After thinking for a while, he asked Zhang Yuelan, "Sister Zhang, I saw the military wife who lives in Room 403 come out just now. Is she a loner? She didn't even talk to anyone and went back."
"She!" Zhang Yuelan pursed her lips in disdain, "She won't talk to country folk like us. She's from the city, her family members are all officials, and her husband's family also has a good background.
Even though he is only a deputy battalion commander now, he only needs to gain a few years of experience and then find an opportunity to make a contribution, and then he will be able to move up. ”
"Is her family so well off? What's her name?"
Ding Hongye was curious and asked.
"Liu Shutong." Zhang Yuelan said, "By the way, Ningning, you just said you were from Zufeng City, right? Her family seems to be from Zufeng City as well. Do you know her?"
Shen Chu Ning was shocked when he heard the name.
It’s a small world.
She only heard from Liu Yanfeng that not long after her uncle returned to his hometown to recuperate, Liu Junpei found a husband for Liu Shutong from another province and married her off. She also heard that the man Liu Shutong married was also a soldier.
But she didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that Liu Shutong's man was also from this military region, and Liu Shutong also came to join the army.
Shen Chu Ning smiled and said, "I think we know each other. I used to work in the same unit as her brother and grandfather."
Hearing Shen Chuning's words, Zhang Yuelan was even more shocked, "Ningning, you used to have a job? Then you have to go to the logistics department to register early.
When we arrange jobs for military wives, we give priority to those who have had jobs before, and those who have never had jobs will have to wait in line.
I've been here for almost five years, but I still haven't found a job. I don't know how many people are waiting ahead of me. ”
Shen Chuning thanked Zhang Yuelan.
While talking, the three of them had passed by a hospital, a school, a paper box factory, a textile factory, a garment factory, a cannery, and a pig farm.
Of course, there are military factories in the military zone, but those factories are confidential units, and military wives like Shen Chuning can't just go in and stroll around.
Most of the jobs for military wives are arranged in factories that provide living security for the soldiers.
Only a small number of educated military wives can be arranged to work in hospitals, schools and other units.
When passing by the paper box factory, Zhang Yuelan said to Shen Chuning and Ding Hongye: "Ningning, Xiao Ding, if you want to earn some pocket money, you can come to the paper box factory to get paper boxes and paste them. It costs one cent to paste a paper box. If you are quick, you can earn two or three cents a day.
But if you want to get one, you have to come early, otherwise it will be gone after everyone else. ”
After saying that, she looked at their bellies again and said, "But you'd better not do this job now. I heard from them that the glue used to paste paper boxes is poisonous and can cause great harm to fetuses and children."
