Chapter 970 - 974: Naturally, One Cannot Stand Idly By
Li Laixiang did not refuse and accepted with a smile: "Then I must try it properly."
Then, he warmly invited them inside to sit down.
Huo Jingrui’s eyes were full of teasing: "The Commander is almost dying from anticipation, how could we be so inconsiderate?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Commander Feng raised his hand to collect the man.
Li Laixiang was already accustomed to their way of interacting and also knew that there was not even a kettle of hot water at home. It was indeed inconvenient to entertain guests, so he turned around and took out a packet of dried shrimp from the net bag he brought back: "This is dried shrimp my sister sent, have some to taste."
Yunyi looked embarrassed, was about to refuse, but then heard Huo Jingrui say: "Since sister-in-law is giving it, just take it, this is good stuff."
Li Laixiang heard Huo Jingrui’s words: "That’s more like it."
The two didn’t stay long, exchanged a few pleasantries and then went to the house of Commander Wei of the Third Group. Sister-in-law Wei, Sun Yanru, heard the knocking: "The yard gate is unlocked, come in."
Sun Yanru didn’t expect it was the young couple: "Oh my, come in quickly, why did you come over?"
The two didn’t enter the house, Yun handed over a small packet of mung bean cake: "Sister-in-law Wei, these are mung bean cakes I made myself, brought you some to try."
At this moment, Commander Wei heard the commotion and came out of the house: "Jingrui is here, take your wife inside quickly."
Huo Jingrui quickly spoke: "We still need to take her to meet a few other families, we won’t go in."
Commander Wei understood immediately: "Alright, come sit when you have time."
After leaving Commander Wei’s, they went to Commander Gong’s house of the Fourth Group next door. As Commander Gong’s wife Chen Lili was still in confinement, they chatted a bit in the yard with Commander Gong and his mother.
Then it was this row of houses; the whole family of Camp Commander Feng was now at the hospital, Yunyi didn’t want to go to Commander Qiao’s house, as she tried to avoid people like Luo Xiaofang, so she didn’t want to deal with them at all, and directly skipped.
Next door to their home was Deputy Lü, who had already been given their share by Sister-in-law Lü, so they didn’t have to go over.
The two headed directly to the home of Commissar Hong in the front row, but when they got there, the yard gate was open but no one was there; Huo Jingrui directly put the mung bean cake in the kitchen.
Afterwards, they took Yunyi to Commandant Xu’s home, where his son Xu Haigang also participated in this year’s college entrance examination. A few days ago, Xu Haigang just got engaged to the daughter of a lieutenant under Huo Jingrui.
Commandant Xu’s wife, Qian Meihua, was very enthusiastic and also invited Yunyi to come over and hang out when free.
From Commandant Xu’s, they went to the home of Commander Cao Fulin of the Fourth Group. Since Ma Xiaoyue helped send Camp Commander Feng’s wife to the hospital today, the family was just having their meal now.
Ma Xiaoyue had already told Commander Cao about the matter, so when the couple saw Yunyi, they kept expressing their gratitude.
Ma Xiaoyue was very excited: "Sister-in-law, if it weren’t for you today, Camp Commander Feng’s wife might have had a narrow escape. We are really so grateful."
"Sister-in-law, please don’t say that, when it happens, naturally one cannot stand by and do nothing."
Finally, they left Commander Cao’s house and went to the last house they wanted to visit, the home of Camp Commander Zeng in the Fourth Group. But as soon as they went in, Yunyi was stunned.
The girl in the courtyard was also stunned.
They both said simultaneously: "It’s you."
Zeng Yanqing shouted towards the kitchen: "Brother, come out quickly, someone is here to see you."
Seeing her brother come out, she pointed with a smile at Yunyi and the others: "These are the ones who helped me on the train that day."
Yunyi said with a smile: "So you’re Camp Commander Zeng’s sister."
Zeng Yanqing introduced with a smile: "Thank you for speaking up bravely that day, otherwise, I fear it wouldn’t have ended well that day."
