Chapter 1427: Chapter 1427: Primary Task 3
Lu Jiang only took three days off, and after settling his wife and child, he had to hurriedly leave.
The next day was August 29th. Feng Qingxue got up early to cook, had a quick bite, and rushed to the school. It was only during the registration that she discovered that the majority of the students in the Foreign Languages Departnt were military mbers, mostly around twenty years old, dressed in naval, army, or air force uniforms. Both n and won were spirited and vigorous. Just by observing their posture and gait, one could tell they were distinct from workers and peasants’ children.
In other words, there was an age restriction for worker, peasant, and soldier students, which was around twenty years old.
Although Feng Qingxue was quite a bit older than them, and deliberately toned down her clothes and makeup by a notch, she still looked young and no one could tell she was actually twenty-eight.
Moreover, she had special approval from the old leader, so the staff responsible for registration were extrely enthusiastic.
“Comrade Feng Qingxue, here are your school badge and student ID.” The other person handed them to Feng Qingxue with both hands. The student ID displayed Feng Qingxue’s black-and-white ID photo she had prepared earlier, and was stamped with an official seal.
Feng Qingxue looked at them and said, “Thank you, comrade.”
Ping Zhengkai imdiately spotted Feng Qingxue and quickly rushed over, saluting, “Sister-in-law, you’re also attending school?”
All the soldiers with him, who were from Viva Army, said in unison, “Hello, sister-in-law!”
“Hello everyone, hello!” Feng Qingxue’s eyes flashed with surprise, “Aren’t you going to register? Why are you all here?”
Ping Zhengkai smiled and said, “Not all of us are here; other departnts also have our comrades. However, most of us belong to the Foreign Languages Departnt, particularly the Western Languages Departnt. Sister-in-law, you’re here to register for Western Languages Departnt too? Which language are you studying?”
Feng Qingxue answered, “The French Departnt.”
Indeed, she was in the French Departnt of the Western Languages Departnt, but what she really wanted was to study dicine.
Yes, foreign languages are important, as they facilitate future research on dical texts in foreign languages, but her goal was to practice dicine, for which she needed a diploma from a dical university.
Capital University’s dical School had beco independent as Capital dical College quite so ti ago and no longer belonged to Capital University. Feng Qingxue had not delved deeply into its history; she rely wanted any diploma, and joining any departnt was a pleasant surprise to her.
Upon hearing Feng Qingxue’s reply, Ping Zhengkai imdiately pushed a young soldier forward.
“Sister-in-law, this is Nie Jianguo, he’s also from the French Departnt. If you need anything, give him a shout, and we’ll be at your service,” said Ping Zhengkai. “Sister-in-law, you can count on us to look after you while you’re here.”
“Right, sister-in-law, just let us know if you need anything.”
“Sister-in-law, if anyone dares to bully you, just watch how we’ll deal with them!”
“There are several of us from the military in the French Departnt, though they aren’t around right now. You’ll et them later.”
“Sister-in-law, why didn’t comrade Lu Jiang accompany you to school?”
In reality, they wanted to know how Feng Qingxue got the spot to study at the school. They were distinctly aware of the number of available spots their military unit received, and Feng Qingxue’s na was not on that list, so they were curious about her sudden appearance.
Many soldiers are forthright and don’t beat around the bush, but they also knew that asking directly might be sowhat inappropriate.
Feng Qingxue looked at them, smiled slightly and said, “Comrade Lu Jiang did not offer a spot to study, so he felt embarrassed to send off and hurried back to the unit. My spot was specially approved by the old leader. He wanted to study diligently and make progress every day, learn a foreign language to facilitate future dical research. Many Western dical texts are in foreign languages.”
