Chapter 859: No Grievances

Of course, Lu Xingzhi did not tell Jiang Yao about that. He had called her that day because he missed her. He also wanted to talk to her about her trip back home.

“Eldest Brother and Sister-in-law are getting married, but I can’t get time off to go back. When you go to the wedding, please remember to give them a good amount of cash as our wedding gift. Perhaps you can also walk around Nanjiang City and see if there are any good gifts that you can get for them as well.”

Lu Xingzhi felt a little guilty. “Other wives would usually have their husbands with them when they attend a wedding. And during the new year, the husbands would also carry the things needed for a new year’s visit. However, I can’t leave the army, and you’ll have to do all these things by yourself. Yaoyao, do you feel terrible about that?”

Lu Xingzhi and Jiang Yao’s hometown had the same custom. Before the new year’s celebration, daughters and their husbands would head home with some gift. Then, on the second day of the festival, they would go home again for a visit.

Lu Xingzhi was far away in Jin City, so he could not do anything about that. Jiang Yao would have to worry about everything herself.

“It’s okay.” Jiang Yao smiled. “I know that my husband is a soldier. My parents understand that, and I understand that.”

“You’re the best, Wife!” The man on the other end of the conversation praised his wife, and his heart was relieved. He was afraid that his wife would feel lonely and inadequate when she returned to her home alone and compared herself to others.

“By the way, I also need your help with another thing.” Lu Xingzhi suddenly remembered something very important. “I’ll text you an address later. Please buy some of our local specialties and send them to that address. It’s for a former comrade of mine. I asked for his help with Sergeant Ge’s job back then, so I’d like to express my gratitude.”

Jiang Yao recalled that when Lu Xingzhi said that his comrade had helped him. However, she remembered that she had not seen Sergeant Ge for a long time. She sighed and asked, “Has Sergeant Ge contacted your comrades since he returned to his hometown? Is there still no news from Ge Wenwen?”

“Yes.” Sergeant Ge had not contacted anyone, and there was still no news about Ge Wenwen. Lu Xingzhi had entrusted people with finding the mother and daughter, but they had not managed to do that.

“Alright, I will do it as soon as I get home.” Jiang Yao did not ask anything more about Sergeant Ge. She knew that it was one of Lu Xingzhi’s deepest regrets. Sergeant Ge was a good person, but his wife had ruined his future.

During her last two days in Nanjiang City, Jiang Yao only did one thing, and that was to shop non-stop. Wen Xuehui had complained about it when she accompanied Jiang Yao on her shopping spree. She swore that she would never go shopping with Jiang Yao again.

It was her first year in college, and she had money again. Therefore, Jiang Yao wanted to buy gifts for everyone in her family, especially her brother and sister-in-law, who were about to get married. She had spent a lot of money to buy a lot of things.

Jiang Yao even bought Lu Yuqing a present for the new year, but she only bought Lu Xingzhi a birthday present. She did not know what else to prepare for it.

As Wen Xuehui said, Lu Xingzhi did not lack anything in terms of food, clothing, and money. She did not know what to buy him.

Two days passed quickly while she shopped non-stop. When Jiang Yao returned, her things were packed into three suitcases. Lu Yuqing was shocked when she sent her to the airport.
