Chapter 1528: Chapter 1928: Company-Level Treatment 6

Lu Jiang came home in the evening; as his bodyguards, Liu Ran and another guard followed him, along with a soldier.

"Ajiang, who is this one?" He didn’t seem like a bodyguard.

Lu Jiang introduced him to her: "Our family’s residential safety is managed by the Guards Platoon. My two bodyguards are Liu Ran, whom you’ve met before, and Zhao Qing. Additionally, there’s a driver you’ve also met today—the one who picked you up earlier, named Hong Anguo. Lastly, this is Zu Lei; he’s a special service soldier responsible for our family’s daily household duties."

Feng Qingxue listened and couldn’t help but say, "So does this mean I don’t need to hire a nanny to look after the kids?"

"Of course not. With Xiao Zu helping out, we don’t need that many people." The proper arrangements had already been made awhile ago. For instance, the special service soldier and the security matters during outings should have been handled by the relevant departments all along. But Lu Jiang hadn’t fully accepted them until now. With the increasing weight of responsibilities on his shoulders and the growing workload he had to tackle, safety naturally became a top priority. "When I’m home and not going out, the two bodyguards can also help with some chores. However, with me here at home, let them focus more on their studies."

He wasn’t some dead weight. When his workload wasn’t overwhelming, there was no need to summon bodyguards to flaunt his status. Only during particularly busy periods would things work differently—like the past few months, where both the bodyguards and the orderly had been managing his living necessities.

The resources allocated for the Army Commander’s work and life were finally taking shape.

Feng Qingxue quickly flashed a smile at the two bodyguards and orderly, saying, "We’ll be in your hands from now on."

"Sister-in-law, no need to be polite; this is our duty." If Lu Jiang hadn’t instructed them ahead of time to address her as sister-in-law, they would likely have referred to the leaders’ spouses like most guards do—using terms like "Comrade" or "Leader."

In the military, many people appreciated being addressed with titles of respect.

Feng Qingxue turned and said, "Fubao, take out the preserved fruits we brought to treat the uncles."

"Coming, coming!" Fubao carried out a red snack box filled with assorted treats and smiled sweetly, saying, "Uncles, enjoy. We specially brought these back from the Capital. Although there isn’t enough for everyone individually, we can make sure anyone who sees them gets to share."

The three men, close in age, hurriedly responded, "Thank you, thank you."

Seeing his delicate and charming daughter, Lu Jiang suddenly recalled her earlier request. He quickly retrieved a piece of printed floral Dacron fabric from the bedroom. "Fubao, come take a look at the fabric you wanted for your clothes—how about we have your mom make it into a blouse for you?"

Fubao’s face lit up with joy as she took it into her hands. "Thank you, Daddy!"

For her, the fabric wasn’t the important part—it was the fact that her father remembered and kept his promise that filled her with happiness.

She pressed the crisp, cool fabric against her face playfully and then asked, "Is there nothing for Grandma, Mom, or my little brother?"

Before Lu Jiang could reply, Feng Qingxue waved her hand dismissively and said, "I don’t want Dacron. How could this fabric compare to cotton in terms of breathability and comfort? I don’t even understand why you’d want Dacron clothing."

"Dacron—it’s really cool!" Fubao hugged the fabric tightly, "I heard from my classmates that Dacron is super hard to get."

For most people, it was indeed difficult to obtain—rationed supply meant even if you queued up, there was no guarantee you’d get it. But for Lu Jiang, it posed no challenge whatsoever. He expressed the need, and Liu Ran promptly procured it—several pieces, in fact.

There were white ones and printed floral ones. The white ones hadn’t been taken out since they weren’t suitable for making clothes for his daughter.
