Xiao Yihan looked at the blue and white dress on Chu Jingqiu, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, "Xiaoqiu, these two dresses I bought for you are quite fitting, and they look very beautiful on you!"
"I like these two pieces of clothing too. You have great taste!" Chu Jingqiu praised with a smile.
"That's because my wife is good-looking and has a good figure. She looks good in anything she wears. I took Xiaomei to try it on, and she looked like a tomboy in women's clothes.
Her figure is not much different from mine, so she can't look that way when she wears it...!" Xiao Yihan glanced at Chu Jingqiu's towering chest and said proudly.
Chu Jingqiu rolled his eyes at him and said, "You stinking rascal, look how conceited you are!"
"Have you had breakfast? If not, I'll buy you some and we can eat on the way!"
"I ate it. I followed the old man early in the morning and ate fried dough sticks and drank tofu pudding; he ate fried dough rings and drank soy milk." Chu Jingqiu said.
"Why don't you drink soy milk?" Xiao Yihan raised the corners of his mouth and teased her deliberately.
"I really can't drink this. It smells sour. My grandfather is the only one in our family who can drink it." Chu Jingqiu said with a look of disgust.
"Haha...!" Xiao Yihan couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"What are you laughing at? What's so funny? You're disgusting!" Chu Jingqiu scolded in a delicate voice.
“I couldn’t drink this at first, and I vomited after the first sip. Later, after drinking it with my old man more often, I could barely drink it, but I still couldn’t appreciate it.
However, my old man loves this, so if he likes to drink it, I will drink with him!" Xiao Yihan said with a smile.
"Qi Yue is just like you, he doesn't drink a single sip. He always says that what the old man drinks is like swill, hehehe...!"
"My grandfather is the same. He always says that we don't know how to appreciate." Chu Jingqiu said.
Chu Jingqiu pulled out a donkey roll from his bag and stuffed it into Xiao Yihan's mouth. "Eat it! I bought this with Grandpa yesterday. This one is still the best. I call it sticky."
"I don't like sweets, but everything you give me is delicious." Xiao Yihan's lips curled up slightly, his tone full of pampering.
The two of them quickly arrived at the military primary school, stopped the car, and Xiao Yihan took Chu Jingqiu in.
The military children's primary school is also a row of bungalows with red walls, black tiles and pointed roofs.
The two walked straight into an office in the middle of the first row. There was a wooden board on the door with the words "Principal's Office" written in brush.
"Knock knock knock..." Xiao Yihan knocked on the door.
"Come in!" A gentle but slightly majestic female voice came from inside.
Pushing open the door, Chu Jingqiu saw a middle-aged woman sitting behind the desk. She looked to be in her fifties, wearing a white Dacron shirt, a pair of black-framed glasses, and had short hair. She looked very capable.
"Hello, sister-in-law! This is my fiancée Chu Jingqiu; Xiaoqiu, this is Principal Ye Xuezhen, the lover of our Tuanzheng Commissar Lu." Xiao Yihan introduced Chu Jingqiu and the principal to each other.
Principal Ye stood up hurriedly, smiled and shook hands with them, "Captain Xiao, I've met Jingqiu. Last time, our troupe competed with the first troupe, and Jingqiu performed a dance.
It was absolutely beautiful and left a very deep impression on me that I still can’t forget.”
Xiao Yihan smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, please forgive me for laughing. Actually, she just danced a little bit casually. I didn't expect you to remember it!"
Principal Ye took Chu Jingqiu's hand affectionately and said with a smile, "Jingqiu, I heard from our old man, Lao Lu, that you are coming to our school to be a teacher. I am very happy. Our school has gained another outstanding talent."
"Principal Ye, I feel like I've known you for a long time. I'll be working with you in the future. If you need to criticize me, please do so. I will humbly correct my mistakes." Chu Jingqiu said with a smile.
“Our school starts tomorrow, and we were planning to have you teach art to first and second graders.
During the summer vacation, a teacher and her husband were demoted, and a teacher from the fifth grade took their place.
So, currently, two classes don't have teachers. I'll assign you to teach Chinese to two first-grade classes, and the new teacher, Ms. Lu, will teach math to two classes. Jingqiu, do you think this arrangement is okay?"
Chu Jingqiu nodded, "Principal Ye, of course, I can do whatever you want. Just make the arrangements as you see fit."
Principal Ye nodded slightly and turned her gaze to Xiao Yihan. "Captain Xiao, our school is at least an hour's drive from the compound. Is the house allocated to you in the family compound ready for you? If Jingqiu lives there, I won't arrange a dormitory for her."
Xiao Yihan smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, I just got the key. There are only a few simple pieces of furniture in the house, and I haven't had time to clean them up yet. I plan to paint it and tidy it up before moving in.
The main reason is that we haven't gotten married yet, and I don't want Xiaoqiu to move in so early. I'm afraid people will gossip about it."
"Well, okay, Jingqiu, you can stay in the school dormitory for the time being. I will arrange a dormitory for you right away."
Seeing that everything was arranged properly, Xiao Yihan smiled and said, "Thank you, sister-in-law. I'll go to work first!"
After saying that, he looked at Chu Jingqiu and said, "Xiaoqiu, I'll pick you up for lunch at noon and bring your luggage over!"
Principal Ye took Chu Jingqiu to the office, introduced her to his colleagues, arranged a desk for her, and then left.
There are eight teachers in this office, all first-grade teachers, with two desks facing each other.
The teacher sitting opposite Chu Jingqiu was also new this year. Her name was Lu Chunyan, and her husband was a battalion commander in the Second Regiment.
She is not very familiar with the other teachers in the office.
However, she always felt that the plump female teacher in her thirties looked at her with contempt.
She just noticed that the teacher's name was Wang Cuihua. She taught Chinese to Grade 1, Class 1 and 2, and she had a mean look on her face.
From the moment Chu Jingqiu came in, I noticed that she never stopped talking and kept gossiping.
She can take care of the teachers in front, behind, and around her. If she annoys them, she will switch to another teacher to communicate.
Chu Jingqiu didn't say anything. She found a rag, wiped the desk and chair carefully, and just cleaned up.
A male teacher came into the office, carrying a thick stack of books, a stack of notebooks, and a box of pens. "I've brought back our textbooks, pens, and lesson plan books.
He distributed the books, pens, and notebooks. When he got to Chu Jingqiu, he was stunned for a moment, "You are the new teacher Chu, right? My name is Dong Weiguo.
"You're the math teacher for first-grade classes 1 and 2. I just went to get some stuff and didn't see you. You teach Chinese for classes 3 and 4, right? The textbooks and lesson plans are all here. Here you go!"
"Thank you! I'm Chu Jingqiu, and I'm very happy to be your colleague!" Chu Jingqiu said politely.
Dong Weiguo smiled and said, "Teacher Chu, you're welcome. We'll be colleagues from now on. You're new here, so feel free to ask me if you have any questions."
Chu Jingqiu nodded, "Okay, thank you!"
Wang Cuihua rolled her eyes and said maliciously, "I heard that our school is recruiting military wives this year. Teacher Lu, your wife is Captain Jiao of the Second Regiment, right?
Teacher Chu, who is your spouse? Why didn’t I hear Principal Ye introduce her just now? "
