Chapter 960: Chapter 960: Young Admiration for Ai 1
Lu Jiang shook his head, "We won’t go in, Tianjun, what with the inspections and registrations, it’s too much of a hassle. Just come out here. Here, take these back to your dorm first, then hurry back out. We’ll wait for you here."
Lu Tianjun heard him say this and looked toward Feng Qingxue.
"Go ahead, your uncle and I feel the same way." Although Feng Qingxue did have quite a few friends inside the Capital military region, ranging from Jiang Yun to many medical soldiers, the situation was different now, and Qingxue did not want to go in and disturb them.
"Alright then, Uncle, I’ll borrow a couple of stools for you and Auntie to rest on,"
Having borrowed the stools and a porcelain jar of hot water, Lu Tianjun watched his uncle and aunt sit down to rest. With a large package on his back and two luggage bags in hand, he returned to the dormitory and immediately drew everyone’s attention.
"Well, well, Lu Tianjun, you’ve got quite the haul! Did your family send you all this?"
"Seeing you sweating bullets, it mustn’t be light, eh?"
"Exactly, exactly, what good stuff have you got?"
The curiosity gleamed in his dorm mates’ eyes, with some of the greedier ones already displaying expressions of longing.
It couldn’t be helped; everyone knew Lu Tianjun’s family doted on him and would often send him foodstuffs. The tastiest were items like dried pork and yak jerky, and usually, they would get a share to satisfy their cravings.
Joining the army meant brotherhood, regardless of wealth. If someone had something nice, it was generally shared.
Therefore, they had grown used to this manner of speaking.
Lu Tianjun was very generous, and whatever delicacies he had, he would share them with the others. It was just that sometimes the situation got a bit heated—not enough goodies and too many people. If you didn’t vie for it, you’d get nothing!
"Don’t rush to any nasty conclusions; my uncle and aunt brought these all the way for me. Plus, there are things I’m supposed to deliver for them, not just my share! I’ve got to go out and eat with my uncle and aunt first. We can talk when I get back!" Lu Tianjun said as he put his things away, but upon seeing everyone’s eager faces, his heart softened.
The rations for new soldiers really didn’t compare to what he was used to at home. It was a meal of coarse grains and flat flavors, without a drop of oil. You might be full for the moment, but after one round of training, you’d start feeling hungry. So he understood everyone’s longing for food.
With his heart softening, Lu Tianjun opened the luggage bag meant for himself and, unsurprised at the contents, fished out two cans of luncheon meat and a large bag of dried pork, throwing it to his comrades, "Here, share this amongst yourselves. No fighting over it. If we’re brothers, we’ll distribute it evenly. Wait for the rest until I get back!"
"Go on, go on!" Everyone immediately pushed him toward the door and then waved him off, "The sooner you leave, the sooner you get back!"
Lu Tianjun thought for a moment, then jogged all the way to the medical soldiers’ dormitory entrance. Panting, he addressed the standing guard, "Excuse me... Could you please notify Comrade Jiang Xiaoyue? Tell her my uncle and aunt have come and have invited her for a meal!"
Jiang Xiaoyue quickly came bounding out, "Where are they? Where are they? Where’s Sister Qingxue? Did Xibao come along too?"
Lu Tianjun smiled, "I only saw Uncle and Auntie, just outside the military district’s gate."
"Then what are we waiting for? Let’s hurry!"
Seeing Lu Tianjun and Jiang Xiaoyue come out together, let alone Lu Jiang, even Feng Qingxue was stunned. Although she had asked Jiang Yun and Xiaoyue to look after Lu Tianjun, she hadn’t expected the two to become so familiar with each other.
Whether they were close could be seen from their words and actions.
