Chapter 76: Settle the family building, this is my target
Ever since Jiang Xingyan knew Chu Sangning was coming to see him, he looked at the time eight hundred times a day, for fear of missing it.
On the day of picking up the person, he asked the political commissar for a car and stated in a concise manner that he was going to pick up the person.
The political commissar even laughed and cursed: "This little bastard, his mind has been wandering these past two days."
Qiao Xiangye saw Jiang Xingyan running away and shook his head, saying, "It's great to be young."
Along with Jiang Xingyan came Sun Guoan, who had made up for his crime and made meritorious service. After he had spoken out about the person his company commander had been negotiating with, he had been "praised" by Jiang Xingyan.
Not only did he receive individual coaching and training, but he was also given a lot of "rewards". In just a few days, Sun Guoan seemed to have aged several years and was weak during training.
Finally, he couldn't stand it anymore and pleaded with his company commander. Jiang Xingyan thought about it and decided to let him work with him.
When the train arrived, Jiang Xingyan subconsciously straightened his clothes and stared at the people getting off the train, afraid to miss Chu Sangning in the blink of an eye.
Chu Sangning stood out in the crowd. He was wearing a camel coat with a plaid scarf and a pair of cotton shoes made by Lin Xiuzhi, which were comfortable and warm.
Hearing someone calling him, he turned around and smiled. This time Jiang Xingyan could no longer sit still and strode towards Chu Sangning.
"You're here." His words were full of anticipation.
"Oh, by the way, there are some things that Auntie brought for you in the back." Chu Sangning looked at the man in front of her who was staring at her intently, and suddenly smiled shyly, and pushed him coquettishly.
Why did Jiang Xingyan bring Sun Guoan along this time? He would come in handy for moving things. He coughed, and Sun Guoan walked to the back very tactfully to prepare to move Chu Sangning's things into the car.
Maybe it was because of the military uniform he was wearing. The woman who got off the car was holding the little girl with one hand, carrying a large package on her back and another under her feet, which actually contained a live chicken.
The woman looked around, confused, not knowing which way to go. When she saw Sun Guoan, she felt like she had found a lifeline. "Comrade, are you from the army?"
Sun Guoan, "Yes, comrade, do you need help?"
"I am Guo Aiguo's wife, and I am here to see him." The woman's eyes flashed, and she looked very timid.
Guo Aiguo? If Sun Guoan remembers correctly, the captain of the second company was named Guo Aiguo, but isn't he still unmarried?
Sun Guoan felt something was wrong about this matter, so he walked over to Jiang Xingyan and explained the whole story. Jiang Xingyan nodded and said, "What if it's true? Let's settle the people first and find someone to notify the political commissar and the commander of the second company."
Chu Sangning heard it clearly. The captain of the second company told others that he was single and not married. But... thinking about how she had to travel thousands of miles to find her man, Chu Sangning felt that it was not worth it for her.
Seeing that Chu Sangning was not in a good mood, Jiang Xingyan thought about what she was thinking and touched her head lovingly. "Don't think about it. You must be tired from the journey. I'll take you back first."
Sun Guoan went to settle Guo Aiguo's wife and children. Jiang Xingyan drove Chu Sangning back to the army first, introducing her to various places along the way, and finally arrived at where the soldiers lived.
"This is the house the army has allocated to me. Now that I haven't been promoted, it's just one bedroom and one living room. When I get promoted, I can get two bedrooms and one living room."
Jiang Xingyan parked his car downstairs openly. There were several women washing clothes in a public sink downstairs. They were stunned for a while when they saw the car.
They are all military families, and they know that the military are all in training at this time, so who is in the car?
Jiang Xingyan, who had broad shoulders and long legs, got out of the car first, then opened the back door. Chu Sangning slowly got out, her eyes full of curiosity. It was her first time seeing a family building. There were three or four small tiled houses in a small area. The gray and black walls showed that this place was very old.
The women washing clothes looked at each other, and a woman with shoulder-length hair and a black hairpin shouted, "Captain Jiang, who is this?"
"Sister-in-law, this is my partner." Jiang Xingyan smiled innocently and introduced her to everyone in a graceful manner.
Several women turned their eyes to Chu Sangning who was standing aside. He was wearing a camel coat, a plaid scarf and cotton shoes, and he looked like he came from a wealthy family.
"Hello." Chu Sangning nodded.
Jiang Xingyan carried Chu Sangning's package from the car, exchanged a few words with a few women and went upstairs. He looked at Chu Sangning's slender waist and gentle temperament.
A woman whispered, "I want to see if that person can still be arrogant this time."
The women all knew what the other meant. They looked at the family upstairs, who relied on the fact that they were from the art troupe and often gave them trouble.
This time, Captain Jiang has also found a good-looking partner with a better temperament than her. Why is she still so arrogant?
Jiang Xingyan opened the door and Chu Sangning stuck his head out. The twenty-plus square meters was divided into two parts, with a bed and a table, and the other side was empty with nothing.
"You live here?" Chu Sangning's eyes widened in shock.
Jiang Xingyan was also a little embarrassed. He pointed to the empty part and said, "I want you to decorate this place. I live and eat alone in the army dormitory sometimes, and come back occasionally when I have time."
Knowing that Chu Sangning was coming, Jiang Xingyan packed up overnight, otherwise she would have seen something worse than this.
"Come in first, I'll pour you some water." Jiang Xingyan let Chu Sangning in and left the door half open.
Seeing Chu Sangning's confusion, Jiang Xingyan explained: "We haven't gotten married yet, so we have to be careful in the army."
Men and women should still maintain a certain distance. He opened the door so that people could see clearly and prevent Chu Sangning from being gossiped about.
Chu Sangning didn't sleep well on the train, so Jiang Xingyan gave her his bed. After a while, he could hear Chu Sangning's regular breathing.
In this small space, Jiang Xingyan sat aside, packing his things carefully. He was helpless.
There is everything in the package, and I don’t know how the little girl got it here.
There were pickles from the home, thick socks made by his mother, and her own...underwear.
Jiang Xingyan touched a very soft piece of clothing and thought it was something else. He took it out and nervously put it back. He blushed from his cheeks to his ears with embarrassment.
Chu Sangning rested for a while, and then heard the army's horn. After regaining consciousness, he asked in a daze, "What time is it?"
"It's still early, are you hungry?" Jiang Xingyan also heard it. It was the troops' meal time.
Seeing Chu Sangning nod, he took his aluminum basin and walked out, "You lie down for a while, I'll go to the cafeteria to get food."
