HCB Chapter 223 Why didn’t Nian Nian come on stage?
Chapter 223 Why didn’t Nian Nian come on stage?
In the 1970s, when there was a shortage of materials and famine, the eleven military wives wore festive red pearl flowers in their hair, put on blush on their faces, and used bright red lipstick on their lips. This kind of dressing was considered luxurious and extremely fashionable.
At this moment, the eleven military wives on the stage, including Yu Lili and Zhou Xinmei, looked like a group of blooming flowers in the eyes of the soldiers and their wives below the stage. They were absolutely gorgeous new brides.
Seeing the new brides coming on stage, each of them smiled like a flower, full of joy, and stood beside their husbands one after another.
Only——
"..."
"Where is Nian Nian?"
"Why didn't Nian Nian come on stage?"
Deputy Captain Lu Chenting, the living devil who stood on the stage with full energy and sharp eyes, like a pine tree on a cliff, felt a pang in his heart, and his brows instantly became cold. He narrowed his deep eyes slightly and muttered to himself.
"Zhan Yanmei, go up, go to the stage—"
"That vixen surnamed Su has been locked up in the office and can't get out. She didn't have time to get here."
"Zhan Yanmei, go up to the stage bravely."
"Lu Chenting is yours."
"He's the man you've admired for years, the man your brother risked his life to buy back from the battlefield. He can only be yours. Go up on stage."
"Go up to the stage bravely—Zhan Yanmei."
"..."
Comrade Zhan Yanmei, who was standing at the stage beside the stage, was gazing at Deputy Commander Lu Chenting, who was about 1.89 meters tall, with deep and handsome features, like a masterpiece carefully carved by Nuwa. She was torn between her conscience and her desires.
Her hands were clenched, her knuckles white, and her teeth were clenched.
The man on the stage had a well-defined outline, as if it were carved by a knife or an axe. His tight and sharp jaw curve looked like a perfect arc, showing his cold handsomeness and domineering aura, which made Comrade Zhan Yanmei lose her mind and go crazy.
Uh, Comrade Zhan Yanmei, eager to try, ready to make a move——
"Na na na..."
"That's not right—"
"Why are there only eleven new brides???"
Sister-in-law Lin Bing, who was timid by nature, was the first to start making a fuss.
"Hey! Yes, Deputy Captain Lu's new wife?"
"Why isn't she here?"
The tall Mrs. Su He sat up straight, looked around and agreed.
"what--"
"yes--"
"Why is there no new bride?"
Sister-in-law Xiang Dongrong also lowered her voice and interrupted.
"Wow, the Living King of Hell hasn't come out yet?"
"Forehead--"
"My heart is beating so fast for no apparent reason—"
Sister-in-law Ling Zhen interrupted uneasily.
"Sister-in-law Jinping, why is Deputy Commander Lu alone?"
"Where's his new wife? Why hasn't she come on stage yet?"
Sister-in-law Gong Yueyue hugged her son and spoke with a strange look on her face.
"Oh my god——"
"I, I don't know either."
"Sister Yueyue, why do I feel like there are so many female comrades who want to rush onto the stage, want to stand next to the Living King of Hell, and become his wife—"
"This group wedding is a bit tense."
Gong Jinping's sister-in-law turned her camera 360 degrees, scanning the entire conference hall and responding inexplicably.
……
Tsk, before Su Nianxi's baby came on stage, the military wives in this area of the family compound started chattering and making a lot of noise, neither too loud nor too quiet.
Soldier Eggman 1: "Tsk, why didn't the wife of the Living King of Hell come on stage???"
Soldier 2: "You're too ugly to come up???"
Soldier Three: "Go, go, it's all spread in the army that the wife of the living devil, Deputy Commander Lu, is very pretty—"
Soldier 4: "Before that, there was also a rumor that the leader was black and ugly, black and ugly."
Soldier 2: "That's it——"
Soldier One: "I came here today just to see the new wife of Deputy Commander Lu, the Living Hell King."
"Handsome or ugly? You'll find out when you wait."
Soldier Two: "I think it's almost certain. It's the dark and ugly one. Even at this hour, the wife of the King of Hell hasn't come on stage yet. She must be too ugly to go up and is hiding in the lounge at the back."
Soldier Five: "I think so too—"
In the eastern area at the rear, a group of soldiers who had never seen Su Nianxi's baby were whispering to each other in low voices.
Soldier A: "Where's the new wife of the Living King of Hell?"
Soldier B: "Yeah—"
"Big star, why haven't you come on stage yet? It's already this late???"
Soldier C: "Yeah, where are the people???"
Soldier D: "Stop arguing, this is definitely the finale, understand?"
"What are you guys doing in a hurry——"
Soldier A: "Yes, there's no need to rush. I saw the profile of the wife of a living devil in the east district of the family compound the other day—"
Soldier C: "Hey, hey—"
"Ning also said that Ning is much luckier than me. That day, he saw his sister-in-law with long, flowing black hair—"
Soldier B: "Hey, I saw my sister-in-law's face the other day. She was so pretty. Even the mainstays of the art troupe and the stars in paintings couldn't compare to her."
"I'll take a closer look later."
"It's this pretty sister-in-law, what's going on? Why hasn't she come out yet? "
Soldier D: "Stop arguing, stop arguing, I already said it will be the finale, the finale, understand?"
"What's the hurry, Zining—"
……
The few soldiers who were shoveling snow in the east area of the staff housing complex that day also lowered their voices and whispered to each other.
Today is the day of a group wedding. The leaders told the soldiers that they can relax and participate without being as disciplined as usual, so some of the active soldiers came in so relaxed.

"Um--"
"Old man, why isn't our granddaughter-in-law Xiaoxi on stage???"
"She's the only one left. The other eleven new brides have all gone up."
Mrs. Lu, with a beaming smile, looked around but couldn't see her beautiful granddaughter-in-law, Su Nianxi, whom she had been thinking about so much. She turned her head anxiously and asked her husband, the old chief Lu Qidong.
"hold on--"
"Don't worry, it will be out soon."
The old leader Lu Qidong, who was in high spirits and had a ruddy complexion, remained calm and composed. He patted his wife's hand and comforted her with a smile.
"Yes, Mom, let's wait a little longer--"
"Xiaoxi must not have finished dressing up yet."
Comrade Jiang Xiaohua, who was sitting next to Mrs. Lu, appeared calm but was actually very anxious inside. She pretended to smile and whispered comforting words.
the other side--
Commander Liu Qifeng: "Old Chiang, what's going on?"
"The only one missing is the little prick's wife. Why is she still not well?"
"Quickly send someone to check it out. What's going on?"
Political Commissar Jiang Daye: "Send someone over—"
Deputy Commander Chen Zhilong: "No, I'll find someone else to check it out. It's already this late—"
The three worried bosses in the army noticed something was wrong and became uneasy.
