Cheng Su had finished cooking dinner and set the table by the time Qi Taiguo finally came home.
After he washed up, the two of them sat down at the dining table, and Cheng Su told him about Platoon Leader Chen moving in.
"Platoon Leader Chen and his wife have been living apart for a long time, so he has always been staying in the barracks. It wasn't until this year that he applied for his wife to come over to the city hospital. He filed a report, and only then did they move next to us," Qi Taiguo explained.
"She's finally coming to stay with him now that he's a platoon leader? Shouldn't he have been assigned quarters a long time ago? Why did he only file a report now?" Cheng Su wondered aloud, picking up a slice of roasted meat for him.
"He was assigned quarters, but originally they were not here, they were at the Southeast Ladder," Qi Taiguo said, looking at the meat in his bowl. "I can pick for myself, you eat!"
