Chapter 1684: Not A Bad Idea
“Everyone has a washbasin, a kettle, and a water cup under their bed. The condition in the army is a little harsh. I hope everyone can work hard to overcome it.” After Commissar Wang brought everyone in, he let them rest for half an hour. He said that in half an hour, someone would take them to the canteen of the army for a meal.
Jiang Yao looked at the quilt folded into tofu blocks and felt troubled.
“Miss Jiang, do you think we will also have to fold the quilt like that in the next few days?”
Wang Meiyu turned her head and asked Jiang Yao.
“I’m not sure.”
Jiang Yao was really at a loss at that time.
“What if we really need to do that?”
Wang Meiyu was quite worried.
“Then I will probably choose not to touch the quilt for the next few days,” Jiang Yao put her palm on her forehead and replied helplessly.
At home, when Lu Xingzhi was not around, she would usually get up after lifting the quilt. The way she tidied the bed was the same way she tidied the quilt on the bed as she did at home. If she was with Lu Xingzhi, it was usually Lu Xingzhi who would wait for her to get up before folding the quilt and turning it into a square piece of tofu.
Jiang Yao’s reply made Liu Chao and the others burst out laughing. “Miss Jiang’s method is not bad.”
The boys stayed in the girls’ room for a few minutes before leaving. They also needed to unpack their things.
Half an hour later, the training clothes and shoes for Jing Mengjie and Li Hong arrived. Shao Fucheng personally delivered them. After he handed the things to Jiang Yao, he said he would wait for them downstairs. Then, he brought them to the canteen for dinner.
Five minutes meant that Jing Mengjie and Li Hong had to change their clothes before going down.
Jiang Yao thanked him and then put the clothes on the table. “The two of you go and change your clothes and shoes.”
“Miss Jiang, can you tell Colonel Shao that we’re not female soldiers? Can we not wear such ugly clothes?” Jing Mengjie reached out to touch the training clothes and withdrew her hand. “Miss Jiang, the fabric is so hard. It’s uncomfortable! It’ll definitely wear off my skin.”
“Jing Mengjie.”
Jiang Yao said, “You and Li Hong should remember that I’m Professor Ouyang’s assistant. I’m not your mother or your assistant. There’s another thing I hope you’ll remember. From the moment you stepped into this army base, you’re representing our university and our mentor, Professor Ouyang.”
“Then, Miss Jiang, do you have any extra clothes and shoes for me to wear for a few days?” Li Hong did not dare let Jiang Yao plead on her behalf, so she could only find another way to avoid wearing such an ugly training uniform.
“No.”
Jiang Yao refused her. “I don’t know how long we need to stay here, so I can’t guarantee whether I have enough clothes. Most importantly, I warned you guys last night, but you insisted on doing whatever you wanted. The result of your willful acts is that you have to bear it yourself. Furthermore, that training uniform is not as ugly as you think, and it’s not as hard to wear as you say.”
Jiang Yao pointed at the training uniform on the table. “If it weren’t for this opportunity, you might not have been able to join the army in your entire life. You might not even be able to wear the clothes issued by our country. Be content.”
After saying that, Jiang Yao pointed at her arm, reminding Jing Mengjie and Li Hong that they had less than two minutes to change their clothes.
Then, Jiang Yao sat on the side and waited for Jing Mengjie and Li Hong to change their clothes. Wang Meiyu wanted to lend the clothes to Jing Mengjie and Li Hong, but it was apparent that the two girls did not like her clothes either, so she persuaded them to change their clothes quickly. She did not want to anger Colonel Shao, who did not look easy to deal with..
