Lu Yuan smiled and picked up an envelope from the table: "Here, this is the reward from the Northwest Military Region, along with a thank-you letter!"
"What's going on?" Qiao Manman suspiciously opened the envelope and found that it not only sincerely praised her outstanding performance in the rescue operation, but also contained a money order for three hundred yuan!
"The document that Political Commissar Zou is holding is the payment for the purchase that was delivered along with the payment!"
"So, if I hadn't refused the two hundred yuan on the table, the team could have justifiably given me less money?"
Qiao Manman squinted, feeling that Political Commissar Zou wasn't that kind of person, and there must be some unknown inside story.
Lu Yuan smiled and ruffled her hair: "Wait for me, I'll explain in detail later!"
Qiao Manman nodded, glancing out the window at the starry sky.
I looked up and saw it was already 10:30; most people should be asleep by now.
Just as I was thinking that, the upstairs neighbors started "renovating".
A thumping sound came from the doorway. Big Yellow perked up its ears and tilted its head from left to right, then from right to left.
They seemed curious about what was going on upstairs, making such a commotion.
Qiao Manman raised her hand and gently poked its head: "You're so curious about everything!"
After waiting for a while, Lu Yuan turned off the lights and came back. Qiao Manman led him, along with Da Huang and Xiao Hua, into the space.
As soon as the big dog and the little hen came in, they ran around and frolicked in the field.
Qiao Manman took Lu Yuan for a walk in the garden: "Speak!"
"I might get a promotion!"
Qiao Manman paused in her steps: "Really?"
"Everything is subject to change until the official notification is issued!"
Two leaders came over for dinner tonight, specifically to assess the family's situation. I'm afraid we'll repeat Meng Peiyu's mistake!
Qiao Manman suddenly realized, grabbed Lu Yuan's neck and jumped up, hanging on him like a koala.
"Honey, you're amazing!"
Lu Yuan easily carried her forward: "It's because there have been too many changes in the team that they decided to promote me out of turn!"
He frowned, hesitated for a few seconds, and then confessed: "From a certain perspective, I took Chen Junyan's place!"
After he finished speaking, he stared at her intently, afraid that she might show any displeasure.
Qiao Manman didn't seem to care at all, and just said, "Hehehe, that's good!"
Seeing this, Lu Yuan was in a great mood. He carried the person back to the villa and they fell onto the soft bed.
Seeing his burning gaze, Qiao Manman raised her hand and pushed him away, saying, "I'm not available today!"
Lu Yuan's voice was hoarse: "There are inconvenient ways to deal with inconvenient situations!"
He then kissed her...
Before dawn, Qiao Manman yawned and went to the field to pick some herbs. She then returned to the medicine shop to make fertility pills and scar removal cream.
After exercising, Lu Yuan used a tablet to study training methods from later generations and made improvements based on the actual situation.
Two days later, Lu Yuan and Qiao Manman brought five hundred premium fertility pills, a roast chicken, a large watermelon, seven or eight peaches, and about ten kilograms of rice and flour to visit Tao Yingzhen.
I had breakfast there, delivered the fertility pills to the clinic, chatted for a while, and then said goodbye to Qiao Lingyue.
After returning home to her family compound and handing over the scar removal cream and health-strengthening pills to Political Commissar Zou, Qiao Manman packed her things and prepared to return to the research institute.
Lu Yuan was reluctant to let her go and held her tightly.
Qiao Manman didn't want to part ways either, but she couldn't give up halfway through.
Moreover, Lu Yuan is striving to improve herself. If she stagnates, even if she isn't rejected, others will still gossip.
Qiao Manman hated that kind of scene. She was proud and confident, and wanted to be on par with him.
"I will seize the time to advance the project and try to get more vacation time."
Lu Yuan kissed her forehead: "Remember to balance work and rest, and come back to see me when you have time! Don't worry about wasting teleportation scrolls, I'll try my best to earn points."
Qiao Manman hugged his waist and buried her face in his chest.
After lingering tenderly for a while, she took a deep breath and said, "I have to go!"
"I'll see you off!" Lu Yuan said, pulling the luggage with one hand and holding Qiao Manman's hand with the other.
They only let go after they got out of the building.
Under the willow tree, a group of elderly women were chatting and laughing while enjoying the cool shade.
Seeing the two of them, he asked curiously, "Is Xiao Lu's wife going back to her parents' house again in the middle of the day?"
Qiao Manman laughed heartily: "Yes, yes, I just bought the tickets, the train departs at three o'clock this afternoon!"
"I don't believe it. How can a wife run back to her parents' home every few days and her husband not get angry?"
Even if your Lu Yuan is magnanimous and doesn't care.
Can your in-laws tolerate you constantly spending money on train tickets, leaving their son alone at home?
Qiao Manman laughed and said, "My in-laws are quite supportive of me. After all, I spend my own money and don't add any burden to them."
Lu Yuan gave her a reproachful look, his voice full of affection: "Naughty!"
Only then did everyone turn their attention to him.
He was about to say a few words of advice when he remembered Qiao Manman's "great achievements," so he chuckled and shut up.
When they got home for dinner and chatted with their son, they learned that Qiao Manman not only knew how to make fertility pills, but had also found a job nearby. They were so envious that they could make vinegar.
He turned to his daughter-in-law and retorted, "I don't think that young wife is any better than you. Why don't I see you working in an office?"
The military wives, now with income, remained calm and retorted directly: "Mom, I just came back from the planting base."
"You can only do what you're capable of. I don't have Comrade Xiao Qiao's abilities; I'm already quite satisfied earning ten yuan a month!"
The man also said, "Yes, it's all thanks to Comrade Xiao Qiao. Mother, you mustn't cause trouble for her!"
"Oh okay, I know!"
Qiao Manman arrived at the research institute and reluctantly parted ways with Lu Yuan at the entrance.
The young soldier on duty was so embarrassed he wanted to disappear into the ground, but deep down he was still envious.
Qiao Manman caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of her eye, blushed, and waved her hand, saying, "I'm leaving!"
Lu Yuan nodded, watched her walk away, and then turned and left.
Before entering the building, Qiao Manman glanced back and happened to meet Lu Yuan, who was turning around, in a distant gaze.
A slight smile played on her lips as she raised her hand and waved.
Suddenly, a teasing voice rang in my ears: "What's wrong? Got too much fun on vacation and don't want to come back?"
Qiao Manman was so startled that she jumped, rolled her eyes, and said, "You already know, why are you asking?"
Huo Wangshu was speechless, and said sarcastically, "You're amazing, you went to put out the fire without even saying goodbye!"
"No, don't wrong me. I just took a stroll and didn't even go up the mountain!"
"Humph, you're lying!"
Does it matter whether you lied or not?
Qiao Manman smiled and pulled out two peaches: "Try some? They're so sweet!"
Huo Wangshu rolled her eyes: "You're just trying to fool me!"
He took the peach without even wiping it, took a bite, and his eyes lit up: "Where did you buy your fruit? It's so sweet!"
"I only share it with you because I always find it sweet!"
Qiao Manman gave an irrelevant answer: "What about the Academy of Agricultural Sciences? Haven't they cultivated any new varieties?"
"It's not that easy!"
Grain needs to be planted one crop after another, and each crop takes half a year or a year to grow. Do the math, how many years would it take to cultivate a new variety!
I've heard there's a really good bean grower who recently came; hopefully he can make a name for himself soon.
