Chapter 1657 Politely Declined 1
Seeing this scene and hearing this conversation, not to mention Dean Lin and the two guards, even Feng Qingxue was stunned.
"Ah Jiang, is this true?" Feng Qingxue asked, but she didn't feel strange in her heart, because she knew very well that Lu Jiang had been in the army for more than 20 years and his comrades were all over the country, but only a few of them stayed in the army to continue their development.
Lu Jiang tightly grasped Wang Zhao's hand, "It's not wrong, the appearance is not wrong, the surname is not wrong, and this hitching post will not grow just right. The last letter between Erxi and I was fifteen years ago, and we haven't been in touch since then. My letter was like a drop in the ocean after it was sent out. Erxi is from southern Hebei, not Wucheng in northern Hebei, so I didn't ask for details after I came to the army. Now think about it, even if I ask, I probably won't get any specific information. Erxi changed his name and is no longer alive."
After leaving the army, many veterans didn't want to make their past glory public, so they changed their names and continued to devote themselves to national construction, so that the world would not look at them differently because of their merits.
A large number of veterans of this type have made great achievements in the army, and some of them have very high positions.
An old regiment commander when he was young had made two first-class merits, three second-class merits and five third-class merits. He retired from the army 20 years ago and has not heard from him since then. He guessed that this old regiment commander probably changed his name like Wang Erxi.
Wang Zhao was a little at a loss. The tall and mighty leader in front of him was his father's comrade-in-arms? It was incredible.
Feng Qingxue looked at Wang Zhao carefully for a moment, and suddenly something moved in her heart. She stepped forward and patted Lu Jiang's arm, "Ajiang, you look excited, don't scare the children, we will talk slowly after breakfast."
"Yes, the meal should be ready, let's go eat first, don't starve the children!" Dean Lin looked at the six stunned children.
Xibao held the candy in his pocket, "Grandma Lin, can you wait until we finish distributing the candy?"
The triplets nodded, they couldn't even afford the candy, they were so pitiful, their clothes were all torn.
Dean Lin's eyes flashed with a smile, and he bent down to look at Xi Bao, "Of course, thank you for your kindness and thoughtfulness, and bring happiness to the children in our orphanage."
A piece of candy is the hard-earned happiness of the children.
Lu Erxiong is more expressive. He took out two pieces of candy from Xi Bao's pocket and ran over to stuff them into Wang Zhao's hands, "You are the brother of Dad's comrade-in-arms family, I give you an extra piece of candy, don't tell others, otherwise they will be unhappy!"
He winked at Wang Zhao, then turned around and went to distribute candy with his brother.
There were less than 200 children, and the older boys and girls had left the room to wash clothes and cook, so the six children were busy, but not everyone had a candy.
Feng Qingxue said: "Let's eat first. When we eat, let Dean Lin say that those who didn't get candy can come and get it themselves."
Except for the baby, everyone was eating in the cafeteria.
Lu Erxiong was almost starving from the busy work in the morning. When he heard about eating, he ran to the first place instantly.
Feng Qingxue raised her hand to look at her watch. It was already past nine o'clock.
Hearing that the leaders would bring meat buns in the morning, all the children were very excited. They came to the cafeteria early with their bowls and waited in long lines. They stretched their necks to look at the plump white meat buns in the big basket on the table and the steaming sweet potato porridge in the wooden barrel. Several staff members of the orphanage were responsible for serving the rice and distributing the buns.
