Chapter 585: Chapter 0585: Military Application 1_1

In the faint light, Xibao saw her parents. She immediately slid off Qiao Desheng and ran clumsily towards Feng Qingxue. She clung to Feng Qingxue’s legs, her plump face partially hidden by her scarf, as she said passionately, "Mom! Mom! Mom!"

"Xibao, mom is tired. Let dad carry you!" Lu Jiang was drained from the afternoon events.

But the little one shook her head relentlessly, "No, no!"

"Why don’t you want dad to carry you? Dad is taller than mom and can lift you up high."

After hearing what Feng Qingxue said, Xibao stubbornly insisted, "Mom hold!"

Feng Qingxue chuckled, "Why?"

Then, Xibao pointed at Lu Jiang, "Dad, hit, Dad hit, hit butt!"

Her words were accompanied by a fearful expression.

The people present laughed heartily. Qiao Desheng broke the silence, "Sister-in-law, before we arrived, the Commander and Colonel Ye specifically told us not to let you or Lu Jiang hit Xibao. They will ask her tomorrow if anyone hit her."

The color drained from Lu Jiang’s face. He wondered what he had done to be assumed as a person who would hit Xibao.

Feng Qingxue laughed, "I said it before, Lu Jiang never hits Xibao. What are you worried about?"

What was said is one thing, but who could guarantee it?

Xibao is so adorable, who wouldn’t cherish her, let alone the commander and Colonel Ye?

Seeing the thought expressed in Qiao Desheng and Sang Hong’s faces, Lu Jiang responded impatiently, "Alright, take your comrade-in-arms for dinner at the canteen. Isn’t it cold standing here?"

Sang Hong hurriedly said, "Aren’t Lu Jiang and sister-in-law coming for dinner?"

"We aren’t coming, you guys go ahead." Although they had moved here, they didn’t have any pots or dishes. Plus, they didn’t have time to cook because of their training and rehearsal schedules. So it was better to eat at the troops and then come back. Noticing their puzzled expressions, Feng Qingxue said, "We collected some grain from the logistics department with our Grain Ticket. It’s enough to feed the three of us."

The last sentence was the reason why they didn’t go.

The supplies in the army are rationed. If Lu Jiang eats less, others can have more.

Without any further questions, Qiao Desheng and Sang Hong left quickly, their minds already on Fang Ning and Jin Zhuzhu. They relayed a message to Du Xiaotao that Niu Yibao had been assigned a task and would be eating later, so she should eat first with Fang Ning, Jin Zhuzhu, and others.

With the addition of these newlywed couples, living quarters became very lively.

Though all of them were temporary residents.

About half a month later, Jin Zhuzhu and Du Xiaotao applied to become border nurses. They weren’t particularly talented in the troupe, and they had been avoided after the prior incident. Even though they were married now, there were still many strange looks following them, and a few gossiped nastily that they could bring cuckoldry to Sang Hong and Niu Yibao. It was infuriating.

Feng Qingxue wasn’t surprised by Jin Zhuzhu and Du Xiaotao’s decision.

Out of sight, out of mind.

The troupe was overflowing with people, but border nurses were in dire need. They had to go onto the battlefield to administer first aid, but the scene was too much for many to handle, so they had to form a team of male medics.
