Transmigrated as Cannon Fodder — I Rise to Female Lead Through Hard Work Chapter 313: Lending a Helping Hand
Yi Roujing was a bit surprised that Hua Yiran would speak up for her, and she smiled at her and nodded.
Zhang ngdi was taken aback when she heard Hua Yiran also used sanitary pads. She was at a loss for words.
"Are you two on your period?" Wang Ruohua asked before flipping open her luggage bag and struggling to pull out a pack of sanitary pads from the middle. "Roujing, if you don’t have enough, I have more here. I brought them since I was almost done with mine, and now I’m clean, so you can use them. Fourth, you can use them too, but this is all I have left. What Roujing said makes sense; you should still go to the infirmary and ask."
Wang Ruohua’s manner of addressing the two made it obvious who she liked and who she didn’t, but Zhang ngdi, being one of the ntioned, completely ignored it. "Thank you so much, Ruohua, this is more than enough. I also have sanitary napkins that I rotate."
"Thank you," Yi Roujing followed up with gratitude. "I’ll return them to you after the military training ends."
Wang Ruohua nodded, and Zhang ngdi suddenly felt that the pads in her hand were burning. Wang Ruohua clearly said they could use them, which implied she didn’t need them back, but now Yi Roujing said she would return them, making it awkward if Zhang ngdi didn’t do the sa.
"My mom also says things like these should be borrowed and returned," Le Xinxin chid in, "Roujing and ngdi both said so too. I don’t really get it."
"These are sanitary pads, right? I’ve never seen this before," Ren Xuejuan exclaid as she looked at the items. "Where I’m from, we always use sanitary napkins."
"Can I take a look?" Ren Xuejuan asked, and Zhang ngdi, of course, handed them over.
Ren Xuejuan was sensible enough to just look at them or hold them by the outer packaging. "These single-use ones are much cleaner than sanitary napkins. By the way, how much does a pack cost? Do you need a ticket?"
Yi Roujing was montarily taken aback by the question. She’s been using them for two or three years now, and except for the first ti she bought them herself, it’s always been Ancheng who bought these things for her and prepared them. He even packed them for this military training. The price... she really couldn’t recall. One yuan? Two yuan?
"One pack is one yuan and fifty cents," Wang Ruohua replied.
"How much!" Zhang ngdi exclaid in shock, feeling that the items in her hand were like a hot potato.
"That’s so expensive," Ren Xuejuan was also sowhat surprised.
"It’s not cheap, I’ve heard, so most households still find sanitary napkins more economical," Yu Cuiyu responded.
"In that case, I won’t use them." Zhang ngdi handed the sanitary pads directly to Yi Roujing. "Those who can afford them, go ahead and use them."
Yi Roujing took them without acknowledging Zhang ngdi and said to Wang Ruohua, "Then I’ll borrow them first, just in case. Thanks."
"No worries."
"Roujing, the teachers at Jing University earn quite a bit, huh," Zhang ngdi said to Yi Roujing, her words inevitably tinged with jealousy.
"A teacher’s salary is fixed. If you’re curious, you can ask the advisor," Yi Roujing responded. "Our family’s just started this month and hasn’t even received the Jing University salary yet."
Zhang ngdi laughed to cover her embarrassnt upon hearing this.
"Roujing, you’re married!" Deng Yiyi exclaid, "And your husband is a teacher at our Jing University, impressive! Do we have such young teachers at Jing University?"
Hua Yiran smiled slightly at Deng Yiyi and said, "You’ve t him, from our Mathematics Departnt."
Deng Yiyi’s face froze upon hearing Hua Yiran’s words. "Is it, is it Mr. Xu?"
"Mr. Xu is your husband, Roujing," Shu Yujie said, her eyes lighting up as she looked at Yi Roujing with admiration. "Roujing, you’re amazing."
Shu Yujie gave Yi Roujing a thumbs up, "Mr. Xu is practically the star of Jing University’s Mathematics Departnt. Many people co here because of him. During this year’s admissions for the Mathematics Departnt, it was clearly pointed out, and as a result, Jing University snagged quite a few outstanding students from Qing University."
"Before, Mr. Xu graduated from Jing University and didn’t want to stay. He returned to his hotown for many years. Was it all for you, Roujing?" Shu Yujie’s eyes shone with deep curiosity.
"Not at all, we didn’t even know each other back then," Yi Roujing said truthfully.
"But you are excellent too, beautiful and smart, no wonder Mr. Xu married you," Shu Yujie leaned in, quite gossip-prone, and asked, "How did you two et?"
"Ah, it was just natural," Yi Roujing smiled serenely, brushing off the question with a single sentence.
"It must have been an introduction," Deng Yiyi said, "That’s such great luck."
Yi Roujing understood who was considered lucky, but she didn’t mind. Xu Ancheng did have the kind of allure that made people yearn.
...
On the third day of military training, Instructor Wei taught the students military boxing, which Yi Roujing was quite familiar with. However, she was a low-key person and just went through the motions casually.
"Wow—" A nearby class broke into surprised cheers. When everyone looked over, they saw a student sparring with the instructor in military boxing.
Yi Roujing imdiately recognized Hua Yiran. As expected, she was skilled in martial arts; her moves were impressively executed. However, the instructor wasn’t slacking either; in the end, the instructor slightly edged out in skill.
On the fifth day of military training, the president of Jing University, along with so school officials, professors, and teachers, ca to observe the new students’ training. Yi Roujing noticed Xu Ancheng among them, and when their eyes t, his gaze was so intense that it made Yi Roujing’s knees weak.
After the morning training ended, Xu Ancheng walked directly towards Yi Roujing. Many students from the Clinical dicine Departnt of Jing University noticed and stopped in their tracks, watching as Xu Ancheng stopped right by Yi Roujing’s side, smiling gently.
"Roujing, is this your brother?" a classmate who previously took attendance, Tu Lindong, and a few male students hadn’t left yet, ca over and asked.
"You’re mistaken, he’s Roujing’s husband," Ren Xuejuan laughed, clearing up the misunderstanding.
The male students present all widened their eyes, with quite a few of them showing a hint of disappointnt. Xu Ancheng looked them over, feeling a small pang of annoyance.
"Alright, let’s go." Ren Xuejuan wisely called everyone to leave, giving the couple so space.
"I brought so dishes, my mom cooked them herself, and they’re all your favorites," Xu Ancheng leaned in and whispered, "Co eat with ."
"Oh," Yi Roujing readily agreed.
But after taking just a few steps, three figures suddenly dashed over.
"Mr. Xu, it’s really Mr. Xu! Are you here to see the students from the Mathematics Departnt?" Deng Yiyi bead with joy, staring intently at Xu Ancheng.
"Deng Yiyi, it’s obvious, can’t you tell? Mr. Xu is here to see his wife," Hua Yiran teased, cleverly redirecting the topic from Deng Yiyi to Yi Roujing.
"Hua Yiran," Xu Ancheng recognized her.
"Hello, Mr. Xu," Hua Yiran respectfully greeted.
"How’s your brother?" Xu Ancheng asked.
"Comrade Hua Yizhong is doing very well, training every day, staying fit," Hua Yiran loudly replied, "All thanks to big brother Ancheng’s guidance."
