The small town was different from the county city, where there were many shops that sold bedding. In the entire Peach Blossom Town, only the production company could buy bedding. Furthermore, it was the most ordinary bedding. If one wanted to buy better quality bedding, they could only buy it from the county city.

As Peach Blossom Town was too small, one company integrated the operations of the supply and production. When Chu Wei arrived at the production company, it was about the end of the work day. The salesperson, Xiaoruan, was closing the door.

When she saw the town belle walk over, Xiaoruan greeted with a smile, “Chu Wei, why are you free to come to my place today.”

Chu Wei smiled and said, “Xiaoruan, do you have any ready-made bedding? I just want one with six pounds of cotton.”

Seeing that she was holding a hundred-dollar bill in her hand, Xiaoruan grinned. “You came at the right time. Silk covers are popular in the city and county now. I bought a total of two sets and they only arrived yesterday afternoon. Both the style and craftsmanship are excellent, but the price is a little expensive. One set costs at least 30 yuan. This is from the South.”

She was about to leave for the army so Chu Wei shouldn’t have bought such a good quilt, in case she had to bring it with her when she left. But when she heard that the silk quilt was from the south, she immediately had an idea. Her mother-in-law, Li Jinhuan, was from the south and had told her about the silk quilts there. She said that before she got married in the north, she also had a quilt made of silk. Later on, she treated it as money and sold it to come to the north.

Chu Wei thought that she should buy these two sets of bedding. When she joined the army, she would have one set for her maternal family and one set for her mother-in-law. The two elders had been busy their whole lives, and it was time for them to enjoy it.

“60 for two sets. Here’s your money!” Chu Wei said.

Xiaoruan narrowed her eyes and smiled. She gestured for her to sit down and wait, then ran to the back room to get the bedding. Not long after, she returned with the bedding and said, “Chu Wei, I’m really sorry. I forgot that I only have one left. The other set was bought by someone else this morning. But don’t worry, I’ll call the county city tomorrow and get them to send me another batch. In two or three days at most, you’ll get it.”

Since she would not be leaving Peach Blossom Town immediately, she hould be able to make it in time. Chu Wei said readily, “Okay, that’s it!”

At the same time, Ding Shujuan’s mother, Li Mingyu, walked in. She was wearing a green military uniform. When Xiaoruan saw this, she was shocked. “Auntie Ding, you became a female soldier at this age?”

Li Mingyu straightened her back and said proudly, “You’re always talking nonsense. I’m already so old. How can the country still recruit me to be a soldier? My daughter bought it for me. When I was young, I wanted to be a soldier. Unfortunately, I got married early. Now, I’m just wearing the uniform for fun. Does it look good?”

Xiaoruan nodded. “Not bad, you do look quite good, full of vitality. Even Chu Wei is staring at you.”

“Hehe. Let’s not talk about her. Today, when I went out wearing it, everyone in the town looked at me. Their eyes almost popped out,” Li Mingyu said happily.

Ding Shujuan had bought this military uniform for her through Li Wenfeng, and she was over the moon. She had been wearing it since morning, and a large group of people had been staring at her.

It turned out that the military green figure that everyone had their eyes one was this middle-aged woman.

Ding Shujuan covered her mouth and chuckled. “Hehe, Aunt Gu, are you sure this is Chen Ji?”

Aunt Gu’s expression was a little stunned. She stood there for a long time and couldn’t say anything. The others discussed and sighed at the cruelty of war. Chen Ji was only 27 years old this year, yet he was so ashen.

After a while, Aunt Gu suddenly said, “Shujuan, look carefully, why does that person look like your mother?”

Ding Shujuan’s expression froze. She opened her eyes wide and took a closer look. She realized that that person was indeed a little familiar, especially the way he walked and waved his hand. Wasn’t that her own mother, Li Mingyu?

Ding Shujuan slapped her forehead and didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She had almost forgotten about this. In order to make Li Mingyu happy, she had asked Li Wenfeng to get her a female military uniform. She thought that Li Mingyu wouldn’t bear to wear it, but unexpectedly, she wore it for a whole day to show off.

Just as everyone was about to disperse, a man with a tall and straight figure and a face full of smiles appeared on the main road. His army green hat was pressed very low, almost covering his eyes and eyebrows. Looking at the man who was walking with the aura of a dragon, all the women in the town sized him up curiously.

The man walked a little closer, then stopped. With one hand on the brim of his hat, he raised his head and looked forward. In an instant, a face that caused countless women to temporarily forget their breathing was revealed. The contours of his face were firm and his side profile was sharp like a knife, faintly exuding a baleful aura.

Ding Shujuan stared at the man intently and muttered to herself, “He should be Chen Ji, right?”
