Chapter 1458: Chapter 1458 Boating on the Lake 1
“It’s early in the morning, not even ti for to get up yet. What’s so urgent?”
Lu Jiang was putting on his pants while Feng Qingxue lay in bed laughing, “Hurry and go open the door, it’s nothing other than your duty calling!”
Things had been calm at their house recently, with no urgent matters arising.
Within seconds, Lu Jiang was fully dressed, and several guards had gotten up and opened the door. Seeing him co out, they quickly pointed to a young man in military uniform at the door, saying to him, “He’s here for you, the car is already at the door.”
The young man was Commander Xu’s driver, who saluted Lu Jiang and said, “Please return to headquarters imdiately, there are important national directives.”
He knew it!
Without a second thought, Lu Jiang said, “Give five minutes!”
“Yes!”
Lu Jiang went back to the bedroom, where Feng Qingxue had already gotten up, arranging her wavy hair, “Going back?”
“Yeah,” Lu Jiang replied with a hint of apology on his face, “I promised to spend a whole month with you and the kids, but just after a few days, I have to break my promise. Please apologize to them for when they wake up, I can’t take them out to play.”
As he spoke, he didn’t forget to pack his things.
Feng Qingxue stuffed so sausage, packaged eggs and chicken legs into his luggage, “I will, you focus on your work, I’ll take care of things at ho. There shouldn’t be any major incidents recently, right?”
“No major incidents, no ergencies, it’s probably sothing at headquarters.”
Lu Jiang slung his baggage over his shoulder, headed to the door, and turned back, “It’s not even six yet, get so more sleep, I’m heading out.”
Feng Qingxue insisted on walking him to the main entrance, the guards were all ready as well.
“Qingxue, you go back.”
“Sister-in-law, we’re leaving.”
Several young soldiers saluted in turn and followed Lu Jiang into the car, speeding off into the distance.
After Lu Jiang left, Feng Qingxue felt too down to focus on cooking, just rinsed so rice and dates and put them in the stainless steel pot on the coal stove, then took her basket and strolled to the state-run restaurant on the corner, returning with so buns and crullers.
The date porridge was ready, and the elderly and children gradually got up.
Not seeing Lu Jiang, the adults understood, but the children found it hard to grasp. The triplets complained in turn, and Erxiong bounced around on the spot: “Dad left again, really, he just promised to take us boating yesterday!”
Feng Qingxue squatted down, hugging each of the triplets, “Dad is very busy, Commander Grandpa sent soone to call him away early in the morning. Before he left, he asked to apologize to you, he didn’t break his promise on purpose. However, the next ti Dad cos ho, you can ask him for compensation, and let him add extra to your outing playti as a penalty.”
The terms “compensation” and “emission penalty” were deep concepts for children. Hearing this, they all looked bewildered, blinking their big eyes as if their eyeballs were spinning around, utterly adorable.
Xibao said, “It just ans making dad compensate us.”
“That sounds great!” Erxiong understood and cheerfully said, “I want a big ice cream, Dad didn’t buy it for yesterday.”
Dundun, who was usually quiet, spun his eyes around, propped up his elbow, and rested his chin in his hands, beginning to ponder about his unfulfilled desires lately, wondering if not napping with Erxiong counted as one?
Only Zhuangzhuang snuggled into his mother’s arms, hugging her neck, “I’m happy just to have mom.”
Feng Qingxue patted his back, turning to always overlooked third child, “Dundun, what do you want dad to compensate you with?”
