Chapter 1611: Chapter 1611 Abandoned Baby in Front of Car 1

The space was filled with many jewels, yet not a single one could be worn, the jeweled hairpins and jade bracelets collecting dust, which was quite frustrating to think about.

Feng Qingxue rested her chin in her hand as she sat in the green Jeep, the bright red cashmere scarf lifted her spirits somewhat.

After seeing Han Ping and returning to the garrison, Feng Qingxue took the opportunity to look for Liu Yan, only to find that the girl had already taken her wedding leave, so she didn’t see her. She was clear, however, that their wedding was being held in the police station canteen, so the couple went straight there.

As soon as they entered, Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue noticed people voluntarily handing over their Grain Tickets or rations to the person in charge.

This reminded Feng Qingxue of the scene from over ten years ago when Lu Jiang had taken her to visit his comrade-in-arms. Back then, they also brought their own rations to Chen Ming’s house. She remembered how people seldom visited others’ homes unless they were very close. Even if the relationship was good, most people would bring their own rations, which was a unique landscape of that era.

In the blink of an eye, more than ten years had passed, and everyone still adhered to this way of visiting.

The level of people Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue interacted with now was different from ten years ago. In reality, the seventies were still in a time of scarcity, though slightly better than the three years of hardship.

Among the guests, eight out of ten people wore clothes with patches.

Lu Jiang signaled the orderly to hand over four pounds of Grain Tickets and twenty yuan as a gift.

Although this custom was not encouraged, the food and drinks cost money and could not be entirely borne by the newlyweds. Thus, most guests chose to give gifts, ranging from one or two yuan to five yuan, not much different from the gift amounts for countryside weddings. Feng Qingxue noticed that their twenty yuan was the most on the gift list.

The person in charge immediately said, "That’s too much, too much, and just two ounces of Grain Tickets per person is enough."

Han Ping didn’t marry to collect gifts.

"There are four of us in total, and the money and Grain Tickets aren’t much. The men’s appetites are quite large, and two ounces of Grain Tickets are only enough for one bun, hardly enough for them to eat," Feng Qingxue said with a smile.

Lu Jiang held high rank and power, with strong brows and sharp eyes, exuding authority, while Feng Qingxue was elegant and noble, with dignified demeanor, and an orderly following behind, clearly marking them as senior officers in the army. The person in charge didn’t dare to be negligent. Just when about to speak, he saw Han Ping and Liu Yan rushing over, the former’s eyes barely containing joy, and the latter was utterly shocked.

"Commander, Madam!"

"Commander Lu, Doctor Feng!"

Han Ping and Liu Yan spoke simultaneously, addressing the same people with completely different titles, then looked at each other.

Liu Yan blurted out, "Han Ping, the old leader you mentioned is actually Commander Lu?"

"Yes! Didn’t I tell you during our shopping trip that I met my former leader, who was in your unit?"

"I thought the old leader you mentioned was already very old, I never expected it to be Commander Lu and Doctor Feng." For people of their lower rank, anyone in the unit with a high rank was considered a leader. Liu Yan didn’t inquire about names carefully and couldn’t have imagined that the highest-ranking officers in the military would attend her and Han Ping’s wedding, hence their surprise upon seeing Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue.

Thinking of this, Liu Yan felt somewhat resentful that Han Ping hadn’t explained clearly.

Feng Qingxue glossed over the fact that she had seen Liu Yan and Han Ping in a department store before, smiling gently, "You little girl didn’t mention you were getting married, if I hadn’t come to Han Ping’s wedding and seen you as the bride, I wouldn’t have known you were getting married."
