(18) So, every now and then, it was necessary to gather the people from below to hold a meeting at the city hall. The attitude of the top leader of City C was well known: better safe than sorry. It was always beneficial to try and observe more.
Besides this matter, the second issue was the approaching winter this year.
Now that midsummer had passed, the autumn in the north, which used to last two or three months in the early years, was now increasingly fleeting. Often, before one could adapt, the first snow came with the cold winter winds.
Discussing the citywide preparations for winter might seem premature, but in fact, it was not early at all. Given the temper of the weather this year, it would either kill you or torment you to death, so the earlier one prepared, the better.
The first matter was discussed quickly in the morning. As for the second, there was no clear direction yet, so the meeting was postponed to the afternoon for further deliberation.
The situation and opinions from each security district had to be carefully considered. Tang Zelin had no particular objections regarding his own controlled security district, it was within a controllable range except he hoped that the senior leaders would consider more about the supplies; there were no other issues to report.
After the meeting ended, Tang Zelin and Qu Guoâan walked side by side out of the City Government building.
Footsteps quickly followed from behind, and then a pat on Tang Zelinâs shoulder.
Tang Zelin turned around, amused, âChief, whatâs the matter?â
The Garrison Commander of City C looked him up and down meaningfully and smiled, âTang Zelin, impressive! Usually, when I push you, you donât react, but it turns out you secretly found yourself a wife.â
At these wordsâŠTang Zelinâs eyes suddenly lit up!
Could it be news about his marriage application?
âClever monkey, well, I wonât keep it from you. Your marriage approval has come through, and your father has also written a letter. He said whenever youâre free to let him meet your daughter-in-law. Of course, if you could let him meet his grandchildren at the same time, heâd have the face to meet his ancestors.â
Tang Zelin blushed, this really sounded like something his own father would say.
âChief, you mustnât joke about me,â he said.
âTsk tsk, boy, acting smart after getting a bargain? Now that itâs approved, hurry up and arrange it. Do you need me and your sister-in-law to help organize it?â
Tang Zelin replied, âNo need for now, letâs handle it uniquely due to the special circumstances.â
After a moment of contemplation, the Chief nodded, âFair enough, itâs a sensitive time. Start simply and when times are better, make it up properly to the lady. By the way, I heard that you two met in Peng Mountain?â
âYes, otherwise why would I dare to file a report to superiors?â Tang Zelin laughed.
âIndeed, you, a Garrison Commander, leading by example in your jurisdiction by courting a young woman, wouldnât sound very good if it got out. Thankfully, you two were already engaged to be married. Good, this way no one can gossip about it.â
In his mind, Tang Zelin thought, that was exactly my plan.
With his marriage to Su Shu approved, Tang Zelin returned to the security district feeling exceptionally jubilant, much to the annoyance of Qu Guoâan watching beside him.
âIs getting a wife really something to be this happy about?â
âDo you have one?â
Qu Guoâan: ââŠâ
Three minutes later.
Qu Guoâan said solemnly, âWhen one is poor, one should be good on his own; when successful, one should help all the world.â
Tang Zelin turned to look at him, âWhat are you trying to say?â
âIndividual happiness isnât true happiness, happiness shared together is real happiness.â
Tang Zelin chuckled, âFeeling poetic?â
âOld Tang, I just canât figure out, how did Miss Su come to fancy you?â Old Qu couldnât understand.
Upon hearing this, Guozi, who was driving in front, burst into laughter. âPolitical Commissar, you should see how our group captain looks at our sister-in-law, guarding her so tightly that even Dali, who stands guard on the hillside, has to come back and report daily!â
