"This time, Xu Xiangyang and I both made great contributions. I was awarded a second-class merit and a third-class merit, and was promoted to brigade commander. Xu Xiangyang was awarded two third-class merits and was promoted to battalion commander."
In addition to them, all comrades who participated in this mission were awarded merits. In addition to merits and honors, the families of the comrades who died also received generous compensation.
Chu Xun is less than 30 years old, but he is already a brigade commander. In the eyes of outsiders, he is only considered to be in great glory.
However, Li Xiyue understood that every honor a soldier earned was earned through blood and hard work.
She hugged him with heartache, unable to utter the words of congratulations.
"Yueyue, I have applied to be transferred to the Beijing Military Region. From now on, I will accompany you every day."
He no longer had to go on missions so frequently that he could spend more time with her. Besides, he didn't want her to worry about him anymore.
Li Xiyue was very happy, "That's great, Axun."
Selfishly speaking, she hoped that he would be safe and sound rather than honor and glory.
It took him a whole morning to finish touring the house, and Zhuang Le was extremely excited.
"This house is so big and beautiful. If I could have a house like this in the future, I would wake up laughing in my dreams."
Li Xiyue smiled and reminded, "Dean Chen's house is quite big and beautiful."
"Yeah, that's right." Mr. Zhuang agreed.
Chu Xun understood her intention and said, "The Lu Feng family has many houses, and there should be one like this one."
"Yeah, that's right." Mr. Zhuang nodded.
Zhuang Le rolled his eyes. "Old man, what do you know? You just keep saying yes."
"I don't know for now, but it's almost the weekend. I'll go to Chen's house and I'll know. But you will never know." After the old man said this, he put his hands behind his back and walked away.
Zhuang Le chased after him, "Why wouldn't I know? I'll know soon too, humph!"
The master and the disciple walked away while bickering with each other.
Liao Qingshan smiled helplessly, then remembered something and asked, "By the way, Xiaochu, have you and Yueyue applied for marriage?"
"Grandpa, I've already beaten him." Chu Xun replied.
Soldiers have to report to the organization in advance whether they are dating or getting married. He has already prepared these reports in advance.
He had already prepared everything and was just waiting for Yueyue to nod.
"Your uncle and I have calculated that Yueyue's birthday is an auspicious day for marriage. You can set your wedding on that day." Liao Qingshan said with a smile.
Chu Xun was overjoyed, "Thank you, Grandpa!"
Li Xiyue thought to herself that she was getting married on her birthday, and the Chinese New Year was just around the corner after the wedding, and she could go back to her parents' home just after the Chinese New Year. Not bad at all.
"The 22nd is a good day to propose marriage, and the 26th is a good day to get the marriage certificate." Liao Qingshan said again.
These three days were carefully calculated by him and his uncle, and they were very compatible with their horoscopes.
Chu Xun took note and said, "Thank you, Grandpa. You and Uncle Master have worked hard. I will take care of the rest."
After having lunch at Li Xiyue's house, Chu Xun returned to the Chu family to discuss the marriage with his family.
His transfer order has not come down yet, so he wants to take advantage of his free time to prepare for his wedding with Yueyue.
Liao Qingshan also has to prepare a dowry.
Now that the wedding date was set, Li Xiyue wrote a few more letters and sent them out. If the wedding was to take place during the Chinese New Year, then everyone who came to attend the wedding would have to celebrate the New Year in Beijing, so accommodation had to be prepared for everyone.
Finally, Li Xiyue decided to let everyone live in the second-courtyard apartment with plum blossoms, which was her favorite.
Fortunately, Quan Yicheng has been helping her take care of the house. From time to time, he would arrange for people to go there to clean and repair it. There was no need to tidy up the house, just prepare some daily necessities and bedding.
I'm not sure how many people will be coming, but I have to prepare as much as possible to avoid being in a hurry when the time comes.
Everyone was busy with their own things, and the weekend came in the blink of an eye.
On this day, Li Xiyue and her family were invited by Chen Qinghe to visit his home.
Li Xiyue had just gotten up and was choosing clothes after washing up when Zhuang Le leaned against the door. "Sister."
"Sister Lele, is there something wrong?" Li Xiyue smiled and pulled her into the house.
Zhuang Le looked at himself and asked, "Do you think it's okay for me to dress like this?"
"It's very good, generous and decent." Li Xiyue praised with a smile after looking at it.
Zhuang Le was unsure. "Isn't it too plain? Should I change into a brightly colored coat?"
"No need, Sister Lele. You're so beautiful, and you look good in anything. You're going back to your own home, not your in-laws'. Why are you so nervous?" Li Xiyue smiled and comforted her, "No matter what you wear, Dean Chen will like it."
Zhuang Le said stubbornly, "How could I ask him to like me? I just don't want to embarrass the old man."
"How could our sister Lele be embarrassed? Our sister Lele is loved by everyone." Li Xiyue coaxed.
Zhuang Le finally regained his confidence and said with a smile, "Sister, you're so sweet. No wonder everyone likes you."
"I'm just being nice." Li Xiyue took out a set of clothes from the closet. "You can do it too."
Most people don't know how to speak properly. They always say things with a sharp edge, or they habitually ask rhetorical questions, or they always try to put pressure on others, which makes people feel uncomfortable.
Spending time with family and friends isn’t about arguing with anyone, so there’s really no need to do that.
Zhuang Le then realized that she had never spoken properly. Every time she spoke, her words were full of thorns. It seemed to hurt the other person, but in fact it was a double-edged sword that also hurt herself.
"Sister, can you teach me?" Zhuang Le didn't want to become a disgusting person. She also wanted to be liked like Li Xiyue.
Li Xiyue smiled lightly, "Sister Lele, aren't you just speaking nicely now? I believe you can do it, you just need to have confidence in yourself."
