"We are currently testing it, and we need to wait for the results to come out before we can implement it."
"Well, it's true that the new generation pushes the old generation forward! You and your wife are both good people who know how to work for the welfare of the people." Commander Li sighed, saying that he was really old, and this new generation not only had strong execution capabilities but also had good brains.
He then said seriously, "If you need help from the organization, please ask."
"Okay, Commander, don't worry, I will definitely not be polite." Gu Huaijin said with a smile.
The other people present had different thoughts, especially Zhao Xinjun, whose face changed for a moment.
Song Zhi didn't know about these things. She was only responsible for entertaining the female guests. The meal lasted for a long time, and Song Zhi felt that her face was about to become stiff from smiling.
"Xiao Song, let's clean up quickly. Old Qin, stop talking and come help! It's so dark out there!" Zhao Yun saw Captain Zhang talking to Zhao Shitou and cursed him inwardly. "Does this guy have any sense? He saw that they were busy, but he was doing nothing and was interrupting them."
After everyone finished their meal, they left. Song Zhi packed a portion of pastries and canned food for each of them, which he had prepared in advance. Several battalion commanders wanted to stay and work, but Gu Huaijin also sent them back to rest. Only Song Zhi and his wife, Zhao Yun and his wife, and Zhao Shitou were left in the courtyard.
When Captain Qin heard his wife's scolding, he felt uncomfortable for a moment, but he quickly ran over and whispered, "Don't you know how to save some face for me outside?"
"What are you afraid of? These are all our own people. If you have some sense, who would say anything to you?" Zhao Yun's voice was loud, and everyone in the yard looked over at once.
Captain Qin touched his head awkwardly and said, "It's okay, it's okay. Let's get back to work."
The others knew it was not a good time to respond, so they just continued with their work in silence.
Strength lies in numbers, and the work in the yard was done quickly. Song Zhi came out of the kitchen, divided the clean meals, and brought them to Aunt Zhao.
"What are you doing?"
"Auntie, don't mind that these are clean. They are all separated after being cooked and taken back for Xiaoxue and Xiaoyu to eat." When she came, she asked Xiaoxue and Xiaoyu to come and eat together. The table was big enough to seat five more people.
But Aunt Zhao just didn't want to. She had no choice but to take out some of the prepared meals and put them in the cupboard, waiting for her to take them with her when she left.
"Keep it for yourself. They have something to eat at home."
"This is specially reserved for them two. We also have ours. Auntie, please don't refuse. It's so dark now. Don't ask me to send it over later." Song Zhi said half-jokingly and half-seriously.
Aunt Zhao felt that this was something Song Zhi could do, so she accepted it reluctantly. She just smiled and said in a friendly way, "Okay, I'll take it. I'm afraid of you. I'm really sorry to bother you."
"You're welcome, Auntie. You've worked hard today. We wanted to treat you to a meal, but you've been busy running around." Song Zhi said embarrassedly.
"Don't be so polite, Xiao Song. If you have any problems in the future, just come to your Aunt Zhao." Captain Qin laughed and replied, only to receive a roll of the eyes from his wife.
"Captain Qin and Aunt Zhao have a pretty good relationship." Song Zhi sighed as he looked at their backs.
Gu Huaijin was thinking about something and didn't hear clearly what Song Zhi was saying for a moment.
"What did you just say?"
Seeing him wandering around and looking distracted, Song Zhi said angrily, "You don't listen to my polite talk. I won't say any more. Go boil some water!"
Gu Huaijin touched his nose, not knowing what had made her so angry again. However, he was tactful and did not ask any more questions. Instead, he quickly walked to the kitchen to boil water as she said.
After taking a shower, Song Zhi was drying his hair. Gu Huaijin walked into the bedroom, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.
"Song Zhi."
"Tsk tsk, when there are people around at night, you call me Zhizhi, and now it's Song Zhi. Men are so fickle." Song Zhi joked while wiping his head.
When Gu Huaijin faced Song Zhi alone, he really couldn't bring himself to call out.
"What? Just say it!" Song Zhi stopped wiping his hair and looked at him impatiently, wondering when he learned to be so hesitant when speaking.
"I will be out on a mission for a few days the day after tomorrow. Try not to go out of the army during this period." Gu Huaijin instructed Song Zhi.
"Is it very dangerous?" Song Zhi understood his unspoken meaning, and his face, which had been slightly smiling just now, instantly became solemn.
"It's okay, but this matter may be related to the people in our army. If someone asks me where I went, just say that I went home and had something to deal with at home." Gu Huaijin originally didn't intend to tell Song Zhiduo, but just in case, after all, the enemy's contact point was definitely on their side.
"Okay, you... be careful." Song Zhi looked at the resolute-faced man in front of him and felt a little distressed. This was a kind of awe for the soldiers. Since he joined the army, he had never complained about the hardship or tiredness, but he was also a living person, how could he not be indestructible!
The next morning, Song Zhi got up early and prepared to take back the clothes he had made while Gu Huaijin was at home.
She went to the vegetable market to buy some vegetables. Gu Huaijin was leaving tomorrow morning and there was still plenty of time, so she planned to prepare some dry food for him to take with him.
"You're here so early?" The old tailor was surprised to see Song Zhi.
Song Zhi smiled and said nothing more, "The weather has been bad these past two days. I'm worried it's going to get cold, so I came early to get it. It's just right to wear if the weather gets cold."
"That's right. Wait here and I'll get it for you. It was just made yesterday." The old tailor walked into the inner room.
After a while he came out with a pile of clothes.
"Take a look?"
Song Zhi opened it, took a look, put it on his body and gestured, then smiled and said to the old tailor, "It's exactly what I wanted. Your craftsmanship is really good."
The old tailor felt very happy listening to her praise and had a smile on his face. Although he had experienced many vicissitudes of life, he still looked at life with a smile.
"As long as the customer is satisfied, that's all I need. When making clothes, I'm afraid that the customer won't be satisfied, otherwise there will be no returning customers."
"That's not true, old man. If I'm not satisfied with your craftsmanship, I won't come out to make clothes." Song Zhi joked with a smile.
Song Zhi praised the old tailor so much that he was very happy and his eyebrows were full of smiles.
Song Zhi folded the clothes and put them in the package he brought. Then he tied it to the back seat of the bicycle and drove towards the vegetable market.
Gu Huaijin is leaving tomorrow morning, so she wants to bring some sesame cakes and buns that are easy to store. She first goes to the market and buys some pork belly, which she will use to make buns. She also buys some dried beans, and uses the beans and pork belly to make buns.
She saw someone selling mushrooms, so she bought some and planned to make some vegetarian dumplings. She would give them to Gu Huaijin when he left tomorrow morning. It would be convenient and filling.
