Unexpectedly, Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu were not at home, so Feng Qingxue and Lu Jiang could only leave with regret and go to find Lu Jiang's comrades.

Lu Jiang's comrade's name is Chen Ming, who is ten years older than Lu Jiang and was Lu Jiang's old squad leader.

Now, Chen Ming lives in the county town, and his home is not far from Aunt Zhao's home.

On the way to find him, Lu Jiang told Feng Qingxue about Chen Ming's deeds.

Eight years ago, Chen Ming lost an arm in a battle and had to retire. After changing his career, based on his military exploits on the battlefield, he was assigned to work at the Grain Management Office, where he was still the director.

This is a fat job that everyone knows and is respected from all over the country.

Chen Ming's parents died in troubled times a long time ago. He grew up eating the food of hundreds of families. He was smart since he was a child. Father Lu met him by chance and admired him very much, so he sponsored his education. Chen Ming joined the army at the age of eighteen. A few years later, someone introduced him to a revolutionary companion. He did not agree. Instead, he asked for leave when the army passed by his hometown and went back home. He married Xiaohong, the granddaughter of the old couple who often gave him food.

When he and Xiaohong got married, Father Lu gave them generous gifts.

Soon after the marriage, due to the tense situation at the time, Chen Ming left with the army again. Xiaohong waited for him at home for five years until he was injured and changed his job and lived a stable life. Now the couple has two sons, a seven-year-old boy. Years old, one is three years old.

Lu's father was kind to Chen Ming, and Chen Ming knew how to repay his kindness. In recent years, the Wanglou Brigade has always had a much easier time handing over public rations than other brigades.

After listening to this, Feng Qingxue only said one sentence: "A house that accumulates good deeds will always be happy."

If it weren't for the kindheartedness of the Lu family back then, there wouldn't be Wang Zhengguo, Chen Ming and others now. Without the protection of the latter, the lives of Lu's father and his two grandsons would only be more difficult.

Lu Jiang smiled slightly, "There are many people who know how to repay kindness, and there are also many who are ungrateful."

After saying this, they happened to pass by the state-owned hotel, and Lu Jiang went in to get food stamps and money to buy a few kilograms of noodles.

The restaurant made two batches of two-height sesame seed pancakes today, and the supply was limited. Lu Jiang bought ten of them.

"It's almost eleven o'clock now. The old squad leader will definitely let us have lunch. Although the old squad leader has become the director of the grain management office and will not be unable to entertain us, we still have to bring our own rations. Besides, the old squad leader's family depends on The old squad leader’s salary is not enough to support two boys, so we don’t need to squeeze food out of their teeth.”

After hearing this, Feng Qingxue smiled and said, "That's right."

She said this, but she was extremely surprised in her heart. It turns out that in this era, guests need to bring their own food rations!

Thinking of this, Feng Qingxue secretly rejoiced that she used to carry a backpack when she went out, but now she carried the army green canvas satchel given to her by Lu Jiang. The bag habitually contained some food, so when she arrived at Chen Ming's house, except for Lu Jiang's She took out noodles, sesame seed cakes, and rice cakes, and then took out two bad-looking apples, a bag of spiced peanuts, and a bag of broad bean flowers from her satchel.

Taking out the things that she had taken when she went to Lu's house would only make people think that she still had these things in her hand.

Lu Jiang raised his eyebrows, always feeling that his wife was so mysterious that he had more desire to explore.

"You brat, just come here. What are you doing with so many things?" Chen Ming patted Lu Jiang's shoulder hard with his left hand, a bright smile on his face.

It could be seen that Chen Ming was very happy to see Lu Jiang, and his eyes narrowed to a slit.
