Chapter 54 We can't let the hospital down.

During lunch, Wen Ci got her food and sat down next to Yu Qing. While eating, she asked curiously, "Dr. Yu, can you dance?"

Her thought was that since she had agreed to dance, she should do it well. The military arts performance was not only seen by soldiers throughout the Northwest Military Region, but also by touring art troupes.

They couldn't let the hospital down.

Yu Qing nodded: "I know a little. When I was little, there was a young woman in the village who was sent down to the countryside to study dance. She lived next door to my house after she was sent down, and I secretly learned from her for a few years."

In the 1970s, during the period of being sent down to the countryside, urban residents could only retain the urban household registration for one child, and families with multiple children had to send one of their children to the countryside.

Yu Qing's neighbor, an educated youth, was a dancer from the city.

"A dance educated youth?" Wen Ci's eyes widened, a faint smile appearing on her face. "Then let's practice together at my place after get off work today?"

"OK."

Since Huo Jingyuan's family arrived in the Northwest, the regimental commanders of each regiment have been encouraging soldiers to bring their families to join them, and even providing travel subsidies.

For a time, military spouses moved into the family compound every day.

As Xue Li passed by the gate of the family compound, he saw a familiar figure. After staring intently at her, his features scrunched up, and he murmured:
How did she get into the Northwest Military Region?

Suddenly, the woman carrying luggage turned around and glanced at Xue Li. In that instant, their eyes met. Xue Li chose to flee in panic, heading straight for the office of the political commissar of the Northwest Military Region regiment.

The Youth League Committee was approving the list of military dependents. Xue Li walked to the desk and saw the documents for military dependents on the desk. The approval process for military dependents was not strict.

All you need is a marriage certificate and local documentation.

"The Youth League Committee member is here!"

Xue Li's face was filled with terror.

"Who?" The Youth League Committee member frowned slightly. Seeing Xue Li's exaggerated expression, he said slowly, "Don't play riddles with me, just tell me."

"Qin Yunge's wife."

Upon hearing this, the Youth League Committee member stared wide-eyed at Xue Li, took a deep breath, and asked with a serious expression, "Xue Li, are you sure you didn't see wrong?"

“Absolutely not, she even made eye contact with me.” The Youth League Committee member murmured, “Could it be that she came back to get revenge on Old Huo, married someone else, and used her status as a military wife to re-enter the Northwest?”

More than a decade ago, it was possible to accompany military personnel in the Northwest, but conditions were far more difficult back then, and families accompanying soldiers had to build their own simple houses.

Huo Jingyuan walked into the office, heard the Youth League Committee member's words, his gaze fell on Xue Li, and he slowly walked behind him, asking, "Who's here?"

"Nobody." Xue Li covered her mouth.

"Ok?"

After a moment's thought, the Youth League Committee member's dark eyes fell on Huo Jingyuan; he decided to confess. Huo Jingyuan now had a wife in the Northwest.

If they kept it from him, no one knew what Qin Yun's wife might do.

"Qin Yun's wife has arrived. She must have married another man and followed the army to the Northwest. I need to check who she married."

Huo Jingyuan's expression remained calm, as if he already knew about this. His deep, dark eyes lowered slightly as he said, "She married Qin Jin."

"Qin Jin? That name sounds familiar."

Xue Li swung his thigh and said, "Could it be the captain of the group next door?"

"It's him."

Qin Yun was once another ace in the Northwest Military Region. He was a few years older than Huo Jingyuan, but the two were promoted at a similar rate.

Unfortunately, during a mission five years ago...

Qin Yun single-handedly held off the enemy to cover everyone's retreat.

He gloriously sacrificed his life on the battlefield.

Huo Jingyuan was also among the team covering the evacuation.
