Chapter 138 - 0138: The Wild Goose Delivering a Letter 2_1
"What is it?"
As Lu Jiang asked, he was unwrapping the parcel with his uninjured hand. As soon as his hand touched the parcel, he noticed many comrades gathered around who came to treat their wounds, both of their eyes shining brightly. Lu Jiang immediately stopped, drawing the package towards his feet.
He wouldn’t open it now; he’d look at it when he returned to his quarters.
Don’t think he didn’t know. Those rascals were always eyeing the food that Feng Qingxue sent every time.
Due to the intense training and severe famine outside, the food supplied by the army was hardly enough. Most of them were often half-satiated. The food sent by Feng Qingxue had often satisfied their cravings.
"Tsk!"
The group of comrades reluctantly returned to their original positions, eyeing Ouyang Zijin expectantly, listening to him explain in detail the task that Feng Qingxue had entrusted to him.
Ouyang Zijin gave a sly smile, glad that he had tucked the dagger and the envelope into his luggage upon returning to the army. He said vaguely, "The things and the letter your sister-in-law gave you are in the package. Don’t forget to open it when you return."
"Brother Ouyang, is our commander’s wife particularly gentle and beautiful?" A company commander under Lu Jiang named Zhao Dazhuang asked.
"Gentle and beautiful?" Ouyang Zijin thought about the Feng Qingxue he had met. Gentle, she was, as well as kind-hearted and very strong. But was she really beautiful? Just as he was about to answer, he suddenly remembered that Chen Ming and Xiaohong had once praised Feng Qingxue. They said that her plain appearance concealed how truly beautiful she was, as if she purposefully hid her beauty beneath frumpiness.
He nodded, "Of course! She’s a wonderful girl!"
