Chapter 1125: Chapter 1124: Midnight Snack 2
At this point, Feng Qingyun whispered, "When I first joined the troupe, many people were criticizing a fellow performer, holding meetings every day to criticize her for her ideological and stylistic issues. It turned out to be because she was exceptionally beautiful and had very fair skin, and somehow, she got her hands on lipstick and rouge, applying it secretly to her lips and cheeks. Once discovered, I began covertly making myself look uglier, dressing in a slovenly manner. Even doing laundry every day and maintaining personal hygiene were considered signs of bourgeois ideology."
Having grown up in the Lu family and guided by the wisdom of her elders, Feng Qingyun was naturally intelligent and acted even more mature and savvy than her age would suggest. Many young women in their twenties, whether they had experienced much or not, lacked Feng Qingyun’s adeptness at handling situations,
Qingxue highly praised her for her thoughtfulness and subsequent actions.
Delighted by her sister’s compliment, Feng Qingyun beamed and cuddled up to her shoulder, "Sister, without leaving the Wanglou Brigade, I would never realize how high the sky is, how vast the earth, and how colorful the world can be!"
"Are you that happy?" Qingxue asked with a smile.
"Of course, it has been an eye-opener!" Feng Qingyun tilted her head as she recounted what she had seen and heard in the troupe, "There were two female performers who looked a bit older than me but were shorter. I heard they had been here for only three months, learning dancing and singing, acting high and mighty in the troupe. After a while, they found it boring, and the very next day they were transferred away, which was just the day before yesterday."
Qingxue frowned, "For what reason? Is the army a place where you come and go as you please? Who is disregarding the rules like that?"
Feng Qingyun said in a low voice, "I heard they are cadre’s children. They suddenly wanted to sing and dance, and their families made a call, and they came. When they lost interest, their families pulled some strings, and they were transferred somewhere else. Those two apparently felt the conditions here were too tough, and also because teachers Yang and Fang were strict, they left."
Upon hearing this, what was there that Qingxue did not understand?
It appeared that no matter the era or place, there would always be people who take a back door approach.
Even Yang Fengying and Fang Ning were unable to control them, let alone her as a medical soldier. She could only make a mental note of whose offspring they were and keep her distance from such families in the future.
After hearing her sister’s question, Feng Qingyun replied with a laugh, "Luckily, I inquired about it; otherwise, how could I answer Sister? "
"Then tell me, who are they from?"
"One’s surname is Hen, called Hen Rongrong, seems to be the daughter of Commander Hen, she came to visit the troop when you and brother-in-law went home, and wanted to sing and dance, so she was placed in the troupe. The other’s surname is Wu, called Hen Tiantian, seems to be Commander Hen’s niece, her father is also a commander, she came with Hen Rongrong to keep her company, and after playing for a few months, they went back to the capital."
Once Qingxue heard it involved Hen Xiangqian’s family, she wasn’t surprised at all.
Since taking office, Comrade Hen Xiangqian had always been very willful, forming cliques. In the two or three months when she and Lu Jiang were away, he had caused chaos in the troop, with plenty of complaints behind his back.
In the month or so since her return, Qingxue had always been working in the hospital, naturally overhearing various murmurs from below.
"Wait, you said Commander Hen’s niece, at first you mentioned the surname Wu, then you said her name is Hen Tiantian, what exactly is her name?" Qingxue quickly noticed the discrepancy in her sister’s statement, "That’s contradictory, what you’re saying."
