Chapter 1320: Chapter 1320 Preliminary Understanding 5

"It wasn’t me, it wasn’t me!" Lu Erxiong cried as he jumped around in his chair with his pale feet alternating rapidly.

His own cotton trousers were wet, too. After apologizing to the guests, Feng Qingxue took him to the bedroom to change his clothes and put on shoes and socks.

Sai Xiaocui said to Lu Jiang who was kneeling and feeding Dundun water, "You’re busy, it’s not easy taking care of a bunch of kids, so we’ll head back first. Another day we can bring Qingxue over to our place to hang out, or maybe we’ll come by another time to play."

Standing up, Lu Jiang apologized, "Sorry, sister-in-law."

"No worries, no worries, we’re all family here! We’ll have plenty of time to get along!" Sai Xiaocui waved her hand and, together with Hu Shuixian, dragged Li Panpan, who was reluctant to leave Zhuangzhuang, out the door.

Thus, when Feng Qingxue walked out, she only saw Dundun and Zhuangzhuang drinking formula milk, with no sign of the guests.

"Eh, they all left? I wasn’t finished hearing about the military compound!" Feng Qingxue complained, sending Lu Jiang an accusing look, "It’s a good thing I came, or you’d continue to attract bees and butterflies, right?"

Lu Jiang handed the formula milk he was preparing for Lu Erxiong to him and put an arm around his wife’s shoulders.

"What attracting bees and butterflies, you’re speaking nonsense," Lu Jiang, not considering himself a flower, remarked, "I don’t quite understand the affairs among the military families, but the three ladies who came today are trustworthy. You can ask them for details and get to know more."

"Oh?" No wonder he didn’t stop her from interacting and listening to them talk.

Lu Jiang spoke earnestly, "Comrade Hu Shuixian is Hu Ping’s younger sister. Most of the grain we sent to Hu Ping back then was given to his parents and sister. During that period, grain was no small favor. So when I was transferred here, Hu Ping contacted me straight away, and Du Heng supported me immediately in all my work. Hu Shuixian had the best relationship with our grandmother, and the fine grains we sent helped her grandmother through the last part of her life. That’s why Hu Shuixian brought Jiang Saozi and Comrade Li Panpan over. She doesn’t talk much normally, but she’s sharp and measured, with a good reputation in the military compound."

Such connections were unbelievable to Feng Qingxue, "These division commanders must not be that young, right?"

Lu Jiang hummed in affirmation, "Division Commander Jiang is fifty-seven this year, and he and Jiang Saozi are a long-time married couple. Their children are all married off and don’t live here anymore. Division Commander Du Heng is forty-three this year, and his first marriage was to Comrade Hu Shuixian. He had a fiancée initially, but she backed out and married someone else when Du Heng went to war, so he remained single until six years ago when he married Comrade Hu Shuixian. They only have one son who is four years old, named Du Zhong. Division Commander Zhao Yun is forty-eight this year. After his first wife passed away, he remarried Comrade Li Panpan through the arrangement of the military, and they have no children. Compared to me, they are indeed not young."

Feng Qingxue committed this information to memory, "And who are Wan Lili, Zheng Xiaoyu, and Chen Feifei that they were talking about?"

As the wife of Lu Jiang, she was quite interested in this matter.

"No idea, who knows who they are—just random cats and dogs! The old leadership has already spoken; what can they do?" Lu Jiang replied curtly. Since his transfer, he had been swamped with work, sometimes going two days and nights without rest, and had no time to pay attention to women other than his wife. However, he did have some recollection of the women in the military who had made significant contributions because of work-related interactions.
