Lu Jingqiu got up the next day and cooked millet porridge for Father Lu, along with a salted duck egg for breakfast. Afterward, she went to the market to buy some fresh bamboo shoots.
She slaughtered the duck—half was made into fresh bamboo shoot and duck soup, and the other half into soy sauce duck.
The insides of the duck provided Hua Hua and Hua Guoguo with a hearty meal.
While stewing the duck soup in the morning, Lu Jingqiu washed the dirty clothes at home.
Close to noon, she carried two lunch boxes to the team.
Just as she arrived at the entrance, she saw Jiang Nanzhou wearing a dress uniform, followed by two officers, as well as Li Zhu and Yang Guodong, the atmosphere heavy, seeing off some family members.
Lu Jingqiu did not approach but waited for him on the side, overhearing someone calling him Leader Jiang from a distance.
In just a few months, he had been promoted, an honor earned with lives at stake, which made Lu Jingqiu feel profoundly heavy.
