Chapter 288: Say Nice Things
As soon as Deng Meihua, Major Zhu''s wife, asked Jiang Yao the questions, Mrs. Lin could tell what her
real intention was. At the moment, she felt that Deng Meihua was being rather narrow-minded,
assuming that everyone coveted her job as the kindergarten teacher just like how she craved to hold
on to the job.
The military would arrange jobs for the military dependents ording to their qualifications. Mrs. Lin
graduated from an educational university in Jin City. She was able to get a job right after her graduation
so the military did not have to make any arrangements. Captain Yang''s wife worked as a sales
personnel off-base. Among them, Deng Meihua was the only one whose job was arranged by the
military.
There was a kindergarten in the base for the children living on base. There were only less than twenty
children in total under the care of three teachers. However, the job as a teacher was selling like
hotcakes among the army wives because the job was in the base with a decent sry package.
Honestly speaking, Mrs. Lin looked down on the kindergarten because their teachers were poorly
educated whereby the best out of them had only finished elementary school. What could they teach the
children anyway? It was just a daycare center in disguise.
Mrs. Lin found it amusing and she was bewildered when she heard Mrs. Zhu asking Jiang Yao about
her future work.
Yet, Jiang Yao did not see all the twists and turns in the questions. She figured that there was nothing
to hide, so she said, "I''m studying medicine, and I will definitely work in the hospital after graduation.
When Ie to the base, I think I will work at a nearby hospital. As for the kindergarten, I''m still new
here, I don''t really know the drill, but I bet the kindergarten is very excellent under the military''s
establishment."
Jiang Yao was really good with her words, she did not say anything bad about the military.
Mrs. Lin took a second nce at Jiang Yao after hearing her answers. One could tell that she was
impressed by Jiang Yao, thinking that she was very smart and sharp for her age.
"Wow, a hospital! That''s great! Being a doctor means a stable and lifelong ie!" Mrs. Zhu
eximed in astonishment and delight with a tinge of envy when she heard Jiang Yao''s answer. "Wow,
saving lives, it is so admirable and impressive. It''s great for girls like you to have a good educational
background, you''ll be spoiled with job opportunities after graduation. Unlike me, I went through the five-
year elementary school system, and that''s it. I can''t find a satisfactory job in society. Thankfully, the
military set up the kindergarten in the base, so I followed their arrangement and became a teacher to
watch the children. In the future, when you and Sergeant Lu have a baby, send them to us, I''ll take care
of them with all my heart."
"I''m still studying, it''s not the time to have babies yet. We n to have children after I graduate, so, it''s
still a long way to go, it''s a little too early to say anything now," Jiang Yao blurted half-heartedly.
She finally fathomed the feeling of oddity upon Mrs. Zhu''s earlier questions. Was Mrs. Zhu afraid that
Jiang Yao would be her rival after her arrival at the base?
"Yes, you''re right!" Mrs. Zhu nodded vigorously. "Besides, Sergeant Lu is rich, I bet he can support you
even if you don''t work." Then, she turned to Lu Xingzhi and said loudly, "Sergeant Lu, am I right?"
Lu Xingzhi did not pay any attention to the women as he was drinking with Colonel Lin and the guys.
When Mrs. Zhu suddenly shouted his name, his hand froze midair with the ss in his hand. He looked

at Mrs. Zhu, and then Jiang Yao, in confusion as if trying to ask Jiang Yao with his eyes, What are you
talking about?''
Mrs. Lin giggled when she saw the tiny signals between Jiang Yao and Lu Xingzhi. She said, "Mrs. Zhu
was asking you, after your wife graduates from college, will you spoil her by making her stay at home
and be a carefree and wealthy wife?"
