Shao Fucheng looked at the people carrying suitcases and then s.h.i.+fted his gaze to the oldest among the ladies. He asked, “Are you Miss Jiang?”
w.a.n.g Meiyu was shocked when she heard that. She shook her head and pointed at Jiang Yao, who was standing beside her. She said, “She’s Miss Jiang.”
“Ah? So young. She looks very young! Is she 18 years old?” Commissar w.a.n.g thought she was joking. After all, not many girls would reject a compliment about their young age.
“I am 20 years old.” Jiang Yao smiled softly. “My name is Jiang Yao. I am Professor Ouyang’s a.s.sistant. This time, I am in charge of bringing them to cooperate with the army’s work.”
“Then I’ll call you Miss Jiang.” Commissar w.a.n.g pointed at Shao Fucheng beside him and introduced him, “That is Colonel Shao Fucheng. He is in charge of this army exercise. I’ll tell you the work details the day before the exercise. I want you to come to the army base early so that you can get used to the environment first. I also need to pa.s.s you the things you need in your work.”
After that, Commissar w.a.n.g introduced himself. “My name is w.a.n.g Guobing. I’m a military officer and commissar. I’ll be in charge of arranging your study and life in the army base for the next two days.”
“What army base is this?” Liu Chao looked around and asked casually, “I thought that the troops would have something like tanks. I was so excited last night.”
Shao Fucheng replied, “Don’t ask what you shouldn’t know. Even if you don’t ask, someone will tell you what you should know. I hope that we can cooperate happily in this exercise.”
After saying that, Shao Fucheng looked at Jing Mengjie and Li Hong’s skirts for a second and said, “The army doesn’t allow you to wear skirts. If you don’t have pants, I will get someone to get you the training uniforms we soldiers wear during training. I hope you can cherish the clothes when you wear them. When you leave, you will need to return the clothes to the army.”
The next second, Shao Fucheng quickly said, “The same goes for the shoes.”
After saying that, Shao Fucheng greeted Commissar w.a.n.g and said he had something to do and left.
When Jing Mengjie saw that Shao Fucheng, who she could not offend, had left, her face fell. “Why can’t I wear skirts?”
Li Hong was concerned about other questions. “What kind of training uniforms do the soldiers wear?”
Jiang Yao pointed at a soldier pa.s.sing by expressionlessly and said, “Something like that.”
It was summer, so the training uniform was a gray-green monochrome s.h.i.+rt and long camouflage pants.
Jing Mengjie and Li Hong’s expressions instantly darkened. “Is it the same for female soldiers?”
Commissar w.a.n.g nodded. “Yes, only one team’s training uniform is slightly different in the entire military base. The rest are all the same. The shoes that Colonel Shao mentioned just now are also military shoes like the ones he wore.”
Jiang Yao had washed Lu Xingzhi’s training uniforms, so she knew that the comfort of the training uniforms was only average. The fabric was not soft, but it had excellent abrasion and dirt resistance.
Jiang Yao smiled when she saw Jing Mengjie and Li Hong’s ugly expressions. They disliked the training uniforms. However, she did not say anything.
She had reminded them, but they did not listen.
Their dormitory in the army base was temporarily vacated. There were four girls in one room and three boys in one room. The room was clean and tidy. It only had tables, chairs, beds, blankets, water bottles, and washbasins.. There was nothing else in the room.
