Chapter 273 Move to the provincial capital
Zhao Qinglan originally thought that she didn’t have much furniture to move and that there wouldn’t be too many things in her house. But when she packed it up, she realized that there were really a lot of things.
Their family's clothes for all seasons, various electrical appliances and bits and pieces at home, add up to quite a lot.
She was surprised how she could put away so many things at home.
Not to mention how many years Li Huai has been in the regiment, the money Zhao Qinglan has handed over to the regiment since the establishment of the military-civilian alliance is enough to make the regiment treat her differently.
Although they had a lot of things, Sun Shengli also specially sent military cards for them to use once.
No matter how much stuff they have in their home, the military card can still fit it.
Because Li Huai had to go there early to join the job, he went to the provincial capital before Zhao Qinglan had completely packed up his things.
As for Zhao Qinglan, although they were not too far apart in the future, they no longer lived together. Wu Mei asked the military wife with whom she had a close relationship in the family area to specially prepare a farewell banquet for Zhao Qinglan.
Of course, most of the military wives here work in the military-civilian joint venture.
Zhao Qinglan's store has benefited not only the group, but also them. How can I not be grateful to Zhao Qinglan?
Zhao Qinglan certainly had her own selfish motives when the military-civilian cooperation was to be established in the name of the army. At least she would not be able to open a store of this size by herself in this environment.
But almost all of her employees are military family members, and she has the intention of helping everyone, so she can bear this gratitude.
After finishing the farewell banquet in the family area, the next day she and her children got on the military truck loaded with luggage and rushed to her new home in the provincial capital.
After Li Huai arrived in the provincial capital first, he called his family and said that the house had been allocated and he was waiting for them to come over.
As for what the house looks like, Li Huai also gave a rough description.
The houses in the resident family area in the provincial capital were recently built.
According to Li Huai's level, he was assigned a two-bedroom apartment.
To be honest, Zhao Qinglan was a little disappointed when he heard that it was two rooms and one living room.
But we also know that this is the situation now, and they are already better than many people.
There are larger buildings in the provincial capital military district, but Li Huai's current level is not yet ranked.
Of course, this building also has a good point, that is, it has its own kitchen and bathroom.
But if there is a choice of land, Zhao Qinglan still prefers a house with a yard.
It's already June and the weather outside is very warm.
Zhao Qinglan was sitting in the driver's cab of the military truck, while Erwa and her three brothers and sisters were sitting in the back compartment. However, the three children had ridden in the back of the military truck before going into the city. They were used to it, and they did not feel uncomfortable. On the contrary, they felt
It's more spacious and fun there.
As for the eldest child, he is still in school, and Zhao Qingju has also moved to Zhao Qinglan's yard in the city.
After swaying for a long time, Zhao Qinglan even took a nap, and they finally arrived at the provincial capital.
The family home in the provincial capital's military district looks much better than theirs. At least it's not very remote, just on the outskirts of the city.
After the soldiers on guard verified their identities, they opened the door and let them in.
Li Huai had already rushed over after receiving the news. He took Junka in a jeep and went to the downstairs of the building where their family wanted to live.
A new person has moved into the family area, and there are still many family members watching the fun.
Zhao Qinglan is also a good person. When she gets out of the car, she will give out sweets to children when she sees them, which also makes the children's parents have a good first impression of her.
The family area here is different from what Zhao Qinglan and the others had in the regiment before. In the regiment before, Li Huai's position was ranked among the top.
But here, there are a lot of people at the division level, and Li Huai, a regiment level cadre, is really nothing.
However, when everyone saw the electrical appliances moved from the military card one after another, they looked at Zhao Qinglan's family with admiration.
Just talking about TV sets, refrigerators, fans, etc., not everyone in the family area has them.
But Zhao Qinglan's family has almost all kinds of electrical appliances, including a washing machine that is rarely used by everyone. This is a bit scary, but at first glance, it seems that they are quite powerful.
Because there are still not many people who know how to do business, especially the military family members, they don't think about it at all, so they think that Zhao Qinglan and his family have a deep background and are well-established.
Anyway, no one else caught up to ask, so Zhao Qinglan was happy to have this misunderstanding.
She used to be the lover of the deputy leader in the regiment, and she had a very good relationship with Wu Mei, the wife of the regiment leader. There were only a few family members who could suppress her in the family area, although she had never bullied others.
But in the family area of the provincial capital, there are too many people who are higher than her husband Li Huai. Even if she is not afraid of being bullied by others, she still has to keep a low profile to avoid unnecessary trouble.
If you can make people misunderstand without reason, and you don't dare to provoke them easily, then it is naturally the best.
After the items on the military card were moved, Zhao Qinglan asked the soldiers who sent them here and the people who just helped move the items to go home to rest for a while and drink some water.
She also asked her husband in a low voice if there was any suitable place near the station if he could invite these soldiers to dinner.
After all, they had just moved here and their things hadn't been packed yet, so it was unrealistic to open fire right away.
In the past two days since Li Huai came here, he had just been busy joining the company and getting familiar with his new job. He really didn't know anything about this.
Zhao Qinglan had no choice but to ask the enthusiastic and kind-hearted military relatives at the side, and a military wife kindly gave her some advice.
It turns out that the canteen of the army here is much larger than the one in their previous regiment, and there is also a guest house for guests from outside. There is a window in the canteen responsible for receiving guests in the guest house and selling some meals.
If Zhao Qinglan really wants to treat the soldiers who are helping him to dinner, he can just go there and buy some vegetables and come back.
After receiving the advice, Zhao Qinglan thanked the kind-hearted military wife and then asked her husband to lead a few soldiers into the house to sit down. She quickly went to buy food.
In fact, after struggling for so long, she and the children were also a little hungry.
Li Huai didn't let her go. After all, he was also a regiment leader and had his own orderly. He gave the orderly a few instructions and asked Zhao Qinglan to get some money for the orderly, and the orderly ran away.
The few young soldiers who were treated so politely were all very embarrassed.
Especially those who helped move things. They had done such small things for military families in the past, but at most they could only drink hot water. This was the first time that a serious person had been left to eat.
In fact, if nothing had been packed at home, Zhao Qinglan would have wanted to cook for them herself.
Li Huai's waiter was still very fast, and he came back with a few dishes and some steamed buns after ten minutes.
The iron lunch box he used to hold his food was lent to him by the canteen.
While waiting for the waiter to come back, Zhao Qinglan also took out some side dishes she made from her luggage, washed the plates, put them on the table.
Several little soldiers had a delicious meal at their house before leaving together.
As soon as they left, Zhao Qinglan and her children hurriedly cleaned up the house. Li Huai also said hello to the leader first and did not go to the military camp.
By the time they finished cleaning up the house, Zhao Qinglan felt that she was almost paralyzed from exhaustion.
