Back to the 60s: The Struggle Career of a Charmed Wife

Upon hearing Zhu Rong’s words, Wang Baozhu’s eyes lit up, "Really?"

So, once at the outpost, will she become like the Empress in the operas she watched as a child? Superior to all but one?

The thought of such a scenario made Wang Baozhu ecstatic. She was already accustomed to being on top, enjoying the feeling of being indulged by everyone. In this place, she wasn’t short of food, but personal freedoms were scarce. It was quite a discomforting change for her.

Zhu Fugui suddenly stood up, "If Dad is a senior leader, then as his son, can’t I command the troops?"

What kind of logic is that? Zhu Rong felt a surge of frustration. Who had been feeding these ideas to his son? Does being the son of a senior leader equate to being qualified to command the subordinates in battle? Was this some kind of twisted joke about human lives?

But at this moment, he couldn’t show his disapproval.

"Of course it’s true. Why else would I transfer to the outpost?" Given Zhu Rong’s status, it was a given that he would be a leader at the outpost. He had not deceived Wang Baozhu. He answered her but ignored his son, and then he laid down a fragrant bait. "Furthermore, you will receive a military allowance. In addition to wages and subsidies, the troop would give me an additional subsidy. We will save a good amount of money each month, then you can do whatever you wish!"

Wang Baozhu rolled her eyes and said, "Whether it’s true or not, I don’t know. We need endorsements from your leader colleagues. I would only believe you if they say so. Besides, they must not only give us money but also food supplies. Food is more important than money."
