Can't Take My Eyes Off You novel Chapter 859

Of course, Lu Xingzhi did not tell Jiang Yao about that. He had called her that day because he missed her. He also wanted to talk to her about her trip back home.

"Eldest Brother and Sister-in-law are getting married, but I can't get time off to go back. When you go to the wedding, please remember to give them a good amount of cash as our wedding gift. Perhaps you can also walk around Nanjiang City and see if there are any good gifts that you can get for them as well."

Lu Xingzhi felt a little guilty. "Other wives would usually have their husbands with them when they attend a wedding. And during the new year, the husbands would also carry the things needed for a new year's visit. However, I can't leave the army, and you'll have to do all these things by yourself. Yaoyao, do you feel terrible about that?"

Lu Xingzhi and Jiang Yao's hometown had the same custom. Before the new year's celebration, daughters and their husbands would head home with some gift. Then, on the second day of the festival, they would go home again for a visit.

Lu Xingzhi was far away in Jin City, so he could not do anything about that. Jiang Yao would have to worry about everything herself.

"It's okay." Jiang Yao smiled. "I know that my husband is a soldier. My parents understand that, and I understand that."

"You're the best, Wife!" The man on the other end of the conversation praised his wife, and his heart was relieved. He was afraid that his wife would feel lonely and inadequate when she returned to her home alone and compared herself to others.

"By the way, I also need your help with another thing." Lu Xingzhi suddenly remembered something very important. "I'll text you an address later. Please buy some of our local specialties and send them to that address. It's for a former comrade of mine. I asked for his help with Sergeant Ge's job back then, so I'd like to express my gratitude."
