Chapter 508 - 0508: Family visit opportunity 3_1
After hearing this, Ye Zhengjun, Zheng Xuefeng, and Zhao Yong couldn’t help but laugh again, easily imagining the scene of the tearful Little Fatty in the photo, they were eager to meet him.
"If you have a chance, let your wife bring your child to the army to see you and your living environment," Ye Zhengjun advised.
At this, Lu Jiang was taken aback. "Didn’t it say that there’s no place to accommodate family members who come to visit?"
That was why he had sent that kind of letter to his wife. Firstly, he didn’t want to cause trouble for the army, and secondly, he didn’t want his wife and son to endure hardships by coming to this harsh place, a highland region, prone to lack of oxygen.
Ye Zhengjun calmly replied, "At the end of the year, there will be a culture and arts group from the Capital coming for a comfort performance. They are making huge preparations. The army is arranging accommodations for them, so they can rest and deliver a good performance. If the staff of the culture and arts group have a place to stay, why shouldn’t the families of our soldiers also have a place to stay when they come to visit?"
"It’s different," Zheng Xuefeng hurriedly responded.
The cultural group’s comfort performance aims to raise the morale of the frontline soldiers, while the arrival of family members might only incite feelings of sentimentality.
However, as Ye Zhengjun mentioned, if the cultural group has a place to stay, family members who come to visit should too. At the very least, when Feng Qingxue and her son come, they can stay in Lu Jiang’s quarters, right?
Lu Jiang was both tempted and hesitant.
"Are you worried that your wife and child won’t be able to adapt to the local conditions?" Zhao Yong asked.
"Yes!" Lu Jiang admitted. "There’s a world of difference between the plains and highland regions. We soldiers took quite some time to adapt when we arrived here, let alone the two of them? I’d rather they live well while we’re separated. I don’t want them to suffer from the harsh climate here and risk their health."
