Wang Caiyan was wearing a flowery cotton jacket. Her jet-black hair was braided into two braids. It was not long and just fluttered from shoulder to shoulder as she moved, making Xiao Zhu feel a little itchy.
Wang Caiyan's skin was not particularly white, but at that moment, perhaps because she was standing in the snow, or perhaps because of something else, in short, when Xiao Zhu looked at Wang Caiyan, he felt that she was sparkling.
She said she wanted to be independent.
Independent people...
"I understand you, Comrade Caiyan. I think I have touched a corner of your soul. I wonder if you are willing to give me a chance to get to know you better?"
Wang Caiyan looked up in surprise.
She thought that what she was going to hear next was a rejection.
Xiao Zhu smiled brightly, and the dimples on his face looked like they were filled with intoxicating wine.
Wang Caiyan's cheeks flushed and she took out the black scarf she had knitted.
......
Wang Caiyan and Xiao Zhu confirmed their relationship, which caused quite a stir in the family compound because the news that Xiao Zhu had previously gone on a blind date with Du Juan and was rejected by Du Juan had spread widely.
Turning around, Xiao Zhu was together with Wang Caiyan.
What everyone was discussing was that Wang Caiyan had better vision than Du Juan.
Du Juan also knew what others said about her behind her back.
Du Juan didn't quite believe what her aunt said about Xiao Zhu Tuo. But everyone outside said so, so Du Juan had to start doubting herself. Did she really make a mistake?
She ran up to Minister Yang's wife and asked, "Is that Xiao Zhu... really that mean?"
Minister Yang's wife was eating melon seeds. After hearing what Du Juan said, she squinted at her and asked, "Why, do you regret it?"
Du Juan's face flushed red, and she said stiffly, "No."
Minister Yang's wife snorted, "Let me tell you this, no matter if you are in the army or in the local area, no matter how hard you work, it is difficult to move up without someone to help you. Xiao Zhu has been with Commander Xiao for so many years, and Commander Xiao is now sending him to the grassroots level to train a capable general for himself. If Commander Xiao is promoted to general, Xiao Zhu will at least be at the level of your uncle in the future."
Minister Yang's wife's words were a bit confident. Theoretically, this is true, but what will happen in the future will also depend on how well Xiao Zhu performs.
This time, Du Juan took his words to heart.
Minister Yang is at the regimental level, which, in Du Juan's opinion, is already a very high-ranking official. She wants to find a battalion-level cadre, firstly so that he can accompany the army, and secondly to use Minister Yang as a reference.
If we go up to the battalion level, it will become a regiment.
Minister Yang's wife seemed to know what she was thinking, and sneered: "Those battalion-level officers you value, it's not certain whether they can get promoted, maybe they will only be here for the rest of their lives... You may say you are smart, but you actually know nothing!"
Her aunt's contempt was a naked mockery, and Du Juan felt like she was slapped in the face.
Du Juan turned around and walked out, biting her lip and trying her best not to cry.
Why, why didn’t my aunt make things clear to her in advance?
Is it to laugh at her joke?
Du Juan felt that she had missed out on a rich husband.
Resentment spread in my heart.
