Chapter 1253: Chapter 1253: Pre-departure Reminder 4

Zhuangzhuang suddenly burst into tears.

Feng Qingxue was stunned as she looked at her equally stupefied husband, "Can he understand us?"

"He shouldn’t be able to, should he? He’s so young." Lu Jiang hesitated for a moment, carefully observing his younger son, "This little rascal must be annoyed because I keep mentioning his name in a bad tone."

Angry or not, his cry was like that of a kitten meowing.

That was what he thought, but recalling the fragile look in his eyes, Lu Jiang’s heart softened, and he reached out his arm, "Come here, Zhuangzhuang, let daddy hold you. When daddy is not with mommy, you have to take care of her for daddy, don’t let mommy talk to young men she doesn’t know, don’t let mommy help young men, don’t let any young man get close..."

Feng Qingxue interrupted him, "Enough, enough, why are you repeating what I said? I’m already an old woman with a bunch of kids, who blind would fail to see that?"

And Zhuangzhuang? He buried his face in his mother’s bosom, ignoring Lu Jiang.

"An old woman? Where in the world is there such a beautiful ’old woman’?" Lu Jiang scrutinized his wife’s face, which after a year of careful maintenance, the spots from her pregnancy had faded almost to nothing. Her skin was smooth, white as snow, and lustrous as jade. The nourishments were not taken in vain. Although not perfect on the inside, on the surface, she shone brightly, looking so youthful one might believe she was twenty.

Compared to when he first met her, she had now acquired a mysterious charm. The childishness was gone, replaced with an indescribable grace in every movement, making her more dignified and noble, beautifully majestic.

Feng Qingxue’s cheeks turned red under his gaze, becoming even more stunningly beautiful.

But this tender moment was interrupted by someone knocking on the door outside. With a sigh, Lu Jiang went to open the door and saw Zheng Xuefeng, immediately hiding his irritation, "Comrade Zheng, what’s the matter? Why are you in such a hurry to find me?"

"In early April, there’s a big conference in the Capital, and you need to get ready to set off in the latter half of the month," Zheng Xuefeng said earnestly.

Lu Jiang immediately reacted, "Rest assured, I’m already prepared." He was about to discuss it with his wife when Zheng Xuefeng arrived.

Feng Qingxue learned that he was going to attend a conference in the Capital, which meant his position was higher and more powerful than she had imagined. She couldn’t help glancing at him; no wonder he agreed so readily when she suggested leaving early—he, too, was leaving the troops.

"Once in the Capital, you must be careful with everything. If you have time, visit some old friends," Feng Qingxue whispered.

"Don’t worry!" He had seen so much information stored by his wife. If he couldn’t ensure the safety of his family, it would mean that the past thirty-seven years of eating were in vain. "After you get home, take good care of yourself, too. Don’t forget to take care of your health; you’re still weak inside. We are to be husband and wife for a long, long time. Let’s take care of each other."

Feng Qingxue revealed a smile, "Okay, let’s take care of each other!"

With the conference scheduled for April, Lu Jiang had plenty of time. He sent his wife and child on their way first, then, after arranging everything with the troops, he set off for the Capital, leaving the main tasks to be handled by the Chief of Staff and the three Division Commanders.

The conference was expected to last about a month in total, with the stay in the Capital being even longer than the conference duration.

Lu Jiang took his people to the meeting place, where he was to arrive several days before the conference began. It was important to greet everyone in advance; he knew how to show the appropriate respect and, as a younger man, he was modest yet confident.

Upon seeing Jiang Yun, Lu Jiang hurried to greet him.

"Did you come by yourself? Where is Xibao and the others?" Jiang Yun immediately asked about Xibao, "I heard from Xiaoyue that Qingxue gave birth to triplets, is that true? Do you have any photos I could see?"
