Li Caixia's words were so familiar to Jiang Jun!
In the old time and space, she had witnessed with her own eyes that Li Caixia's favorite words to Jiang Yuan were: "As long as I'm here, no one else has the chance to say anything bad about you!"
Now this sentence is applied to her first.
Miraculously, Jiang Jun felt very benefited. She enjoyed this protection before Jiang Yuan!
Before dawn, Li Caixia went to the cafeteria to get breakfast.
"Teacher Xiao Jiang, we have your favorite grits porridge!" Li Caixia opened the door to the outer room and said loudly, "I bought eight steamed buns and four flower rolls. Will it be enough for Staff Officer Chen when he comes back later?"
After the reveille, Jiang Jun closed his eyes and went back to sleep. He was awakened by Li Caixia's voice: "Enough!"
With such a loud noise, I guess even Secretary Niu’s family could hear it.
Li Caixia, who is so frugal, did not make breakfast at home, but actually ran to the cafeteria to get so much breakfast. It was definitely not to improve the food for her as a patient. If she wanted to improve the food, she must have bought meat buns and fried meat patties.
Considering what Li Caixia said the night before, she must have another purpose for going to the cafeteria so early in the morning.
Sure enough, Li Caixia continued, "On the way back, guess who I ran into? I even ran into Aunt Long!"
To show respect, Li Caixia calls Long Xiaomin "Auntie Long".
Jiang Jun couldn't help but think: "You had to go to the playground specifically to meet her, right?"
Li Caixia smiled triumphantly. This morning had gone so smoothly. She had met everyone she needed to meet and said everything she needed to say. Now no one would dare to have any opinions about Teacher Xiao Jiang. "I told Aunt Long you had a sprained waist. I've been taking care of you all night!"
Jiang Jun quoted the nurse's words: "Don't tell anyone I sprained my back. Soldiers with broken arms and legs don't need to be served like me. You should be more careful with your words. I have to be careful about the impact too, otherwise people will think I'm too delicate."
Li Caixia bared her teeth and stuck out her tongue: "Oh! Then I'll remember it."
When there were no outsiders or leaders around, Li Caixia always felt that she was older than Jiang Jun and couldn't help but do something for her.
After Chen Yuanwu finished his morning exercises and returned home, he went into the house to change his clothes, sat down to eat breakfast, and chatted with Jiang Jun.
Li Caixia picked up the washbasin and was about to wash clothes.
Chen Yuanwu quickly stopped her: "No need, I can do it myself. When I'm not at home, you just need to help Xiaojun wash clothes."
He learned to wash his own underwear since he was a child. The Chen family's nanny only washed overalls and trousers for him and his siblings. After joining the army, he did everything by himself without asking anyone for help.
Li Caixia was frightened when she saw Chen Yuanwu. She had only been so brave last night to protect Jiang Jun and ignored him. Hearing what Chen Yuanwu said, she quickly replied, "Well, don't worry, Chief of Staff Chen. I promise to only let Teacher Jiang wash her own face towel."
Chen Yuanwu and Jiang Jun exchanged a glance, hummed, and said calmly, "I've already made an agreement with Captain Chen that when Teacher Jiang recovers and goes back to work, I'll find you a job. You're still young, and as long as you're willing to learn, there's still time for you to learn anything."
Although he wanted to find a nanny for Jiang Yun, he knew that his mother would not agree, and his comrades and colleagues would still have opinions about him if they knew about it.
What's more, Li Caixia is Chen Zhenbao's person. Although she didn't say it explicitly that she likes her, her comrades can see it at a glance.
Li Caixia's face turned red with excitement, but she didn't dare to respond. She just rubbed the corners of her clothes nervously, not knowing where to put her hands and feet.
Being able to study with Teacher Xiao Jiang and then find a job in Beijing is her dream!
Jiang Jun put down his bowl and stood up. "Lao Wu, take me for a walk over to the playground."
While Chen Yuanwu is at home, going out together to increase exposure will definitely have a better effect.
Chen Yuanwu shook his head: "I have to go back to the office now, and I may not be able to come back at noon. You can eat at the appointed time, and you don't have to wait for me."
Li Caixia smiled servilely like a slave.
Jiang Yun waited until Chen Yuanwu left, then asked in confusion, "Li Caixia, are you afraid of Chief of Staff Chen? I see you either nodding or bowing when you talk to him, and you keep backing away. If there wasn't a wall behind you, you would have retreated outside!"
Li Caixia wiped the sweat off her face with a boastful expression: "When Staff Officer Chen spoke, he was so serious that I couldn't even breathe!"
Jiang Yun didn't think so. "Is Chief of Staff Chen serious?"
Whether it was Chen Yuanwu, Chen Zhong, or even Gao Lei, these people were always talking and laughing when they were with her. She never felt that any of them were serious or scary.
Li Caixia covered her heart and said, "Too serious! Bao Ge and the others are afraid of him!"
Jiang Jun found it very strange: "When Staff Officer Chen was with Captain Chen and the others, he would joke around."
Could it be that the Chief of Staff Chen that Li Caixia was talking about is not the same person as her Chen Yuanwu?
Li Caixia nodded solemnly: "Yes! Brother Bao said that Staff Officer Chen will definitely become a very important leader in the future!"
Anyway, soldiers are sacred to ordinary people!
Jiang Jun smiled, not wanting to discuss Chen Yuanwu with Li Caixia anymore. He got down to business: "I have to go back to the military headquarters tonight and won't be back for a few days. Once I've made arrangements at work, I'll let you know where to stay. If it's inconvenient for me to take you with me, you can stay here for the time being."
Li Caixia was worried: "How long will you be gone? If you're not here, I'll have to eat and drink here, which is too expensive. Why don't I go back to the village first?"
Jiang Jun thought for a moment, "It won't be long. After I start working, I'll have to bring someone over to live with me. I'll have to trouble you to help take care of them then." It would be better to reassure Li Caixia first: "When I'm not home, don't just knit sweaters and scarves. You should still go to school and learn to read and memorize your multiplication tables during the day."
Facing Li Caixia, Jiang Jun was a little uncomfortable with her role change. She looked at Li Caixia, who was sometimes like a mother and sometimes like a sister. She was sometimes likable and sometimes distressed.
It was Chen Yuanwu who told her to stop talking so much and not to get to know everyone she met in the courtyard. If some words were said carelessly, it would still have an impact on Chen Yuanwu.
Li Caixia lowered her head and agreed: "Okay, Teacher Xiao Jiang, I can now write all the characters you taught me last time."
Jiang Yun's heart softened again: "Go get some paper and pen, I'll write a few words for you. I'll go out to the military service center to buy some things later, and I'll teach you when I come back."
Li Caixia said quickly: "We have everything we need at home, what else do you want to buy?"
Jiang Yun was speechless: "This is my home. I don't know if it needs anything."
