Chapter 1765: Chapter 1765: Untitled Untitled 2
Feng Qingxue quickly prepared two sets of winter clothes and cotton shoes for children. The fabric looked like one set was new and the other old, but the lining was filled with new cotton, light and warm. She sent them out along with some recently purchased nutritional supplements and two bags of milk powder she found by chance.
For ordinary people, these were all good things.
Of course, even in well-off families, things like these aren’t easy to come by just because you have money.
After finishing this task, Feng Qingxue wrote a letter to Chen Xueniang.
She had an excellent relationship with Chen Xueniang and had already sent them some items, always in thicker versions. The letter primarily discussed the matters concerning Huo Beiting’s two children.
The days of living under someone else’s roof are not easy. Those who haven’t experienced it won’t understand the feeling of being cautious all the time. Although Feng Qingxue hadn’t gone through it, she had seen it enough! In her letter, she entrusted Chen Xueniang and Zheng Jinrui to observe carefully and inform her if the children suffered grievances while living with their maternal grandparents. It would be better for them to stay with Huo Beiting.
Didn’t Huo Beiting send his children to the Capital because he was worried about them suffering with him? But with their support, even if the children lived in the Kunlun Military Region, they wouldn’t have to endure the same hardships as ordinary military families’ children.
There were still a lot of supplies in the space, and the Lu Family had a wide reach. Feng Qingxue had great confidence in this.
However, the extremely backward education level of the Great Northwest region is a problem that needs attention. Although the Kunlun Military Region’s school was a bit stronger, it was still limited. This might be the main reason why Huo Beiting wanted the children to receive a good education in the Capital.
Biting the end of her pen, Feng Qingxue concluded the letter, placed it in an envelope, and mailed it with a stamp. novelbuddy-cσ๓
The distance between the two places was not far, so the mail would arrive quickly.
Within a couple of days, Chen Xueniang received the letter and promptly replied, assuring that she would secretly observe. She also wrote about the recent happenings in the Capital and sent many things in several packages.
Among them were snacks like preserved fruits and milk candies, clothes made for Fubao, toys, books, and illustrated storybooks for the triplets. There were also some trade goods sent to Feng Qingxue as a personal favor. As for Xibao’s share, it was sent back to the hometown. She also remembered to prepare a gift for Ye Yan, who lived with the Lu Family, to prevent him from feeling uneasy seeing the Lu Family children receiving gifts.
She and Zheng Jinrui were both working and childless, and had access to resources, living a good life, and were particularly generous to the Lu Family’s children.
After reading her letter, Feng Qingxue understood why Wang Xinsheng was urgently summoning Lu Jiang to the Capital.
Perhaps it was the last frenzy, but the Capital had become restless again. Several senior officials who had returned to work were successively dismissed. Even if she hadn’t written to Chen Xueniang, Chen Xueniang would’ve prepared to write to warn them to act cautiously.
Feng Qingxue calculated the time and realized there were still two years left before this anxious, precarious period would end.
Lu Jiang obviously understood this too. Most of the work in the Wucheng troops was handled by the chief of staff and deputy military commander. He hadn’t returned after staying in the Capital for more than three months, and Feng Qingxue couldn’t take leave to take the children back to her hometown because the troops had sent several doctors to the Capital for training. Even though special forces units had moved elsewhere, the military hospital still had an insufficient number of doctors. Feng Qingxue was at most able to take half a day off each week due to the busyness.
In this tense and busy atmosphere, the year 1975 arrived slowly, accompanied by strong winds and heavy snow.
After the doctors returned from training, Feng Qingxue finally got five days off. The elderly and children stayed on the kang, some reading and others listening to the radio, unwilling to go out. So, early in the morning, she went alone into Wucheng to protect the supplies in the space.
