Duan Xichuan's room is the second room on the west side of the third row in the south area. The houses where ordinary officers live in the south area are all single rooms.

Only the heads of the East and West districts live in suites.

A single room has a door, a window, and four walls. There is no toilet or kitchen.

If you want to go to the toilet, you have to go to a public toilet.

You can eat in the canteen of the compound, or you can take food home from the canteen, but you need food coupons.

In the past, some family members who joined the army early and brought their children with them asked their husbands to build a small house next to the house as a kitchen, and the whole family cooked for themselves.

This way you can save some money and eat whatever you want.

Most of the family members who came later also built their own kitchens.

However, the kitchen cannot be built randomly. It is divided into a unified area, and the later built ones are built next to the earlier ones to form a row of small houses of the same height and size.

You can take a bath in the bathhouse, which is separate for men and women. You can also fetch water yourself and take a bath in the house.

Anyway, cooking, bathing, going to the toilet, and sleeping are all done in separate places, and some places require two or three minutes to walk, so they cannot be done in the same room.

When Shen Xiaobei heard this at first, he really felt a little uncomfortable.

However, since we are here, we should make the best of it.

Duan Xichuan can get used to it, other family members can get used to it, so why can't Shen Xiaobei get used to it?

Compared with other family members, she has a secret space with a lot of daily necessities in it. She is already a million times luckier than them!

On the way back to the room, the two met several comrades and their families who greeted them, as well as neighbors from the next door rooms.

Shen Xiaobei was really tired after sitting in the car for dozens of hours. She couldn't remember so many people at once. After returning to the room, she asked Duan Xichuan to write a list for her.

Simply write down the names, military ranks, and information about the family members of your next-door neighbors on a piece of paper.

She would then know how to address them, to avoid the embarrassment of calling them the wrong names.

Duan Xichuan agreed readily and said he would write a detailed list for her tomorrow.

Duan Xichuan's room was very simply furnished with a 1.5-meter-long wooden bed, a wooden box, a table and two chairs, a three-tiered wooden shelf for storing items, and no other furniture.

Because there are not many things in the room, it doesn't seem very small.

Shen Xiaobei secretly thought that if he had a child in the future, it would be no problem to put another small bed in the room.

"Girl, you rest in the room first. Leave your luggage here and I'll pack it up later. I'll go to the cafeteria to get some food and we can eat in the room later. How about that?"

"I haven't been to the cafeteria yet, why don't I go with you!"

"There's no need to rush to the cafeteria. You're tired. Rest in your room for a while. I can take you there tomorrow."

"Well, that's fine too."

Duan Xichuan put down the luggage and asked Shen Xiaobei to lie on the bed and rest for a while. He took two lunch boxes and went out.

Although Shen Xiaobei felt a little tired, she couldn't lie down at all because the room was not tidied. As soon as Duan Xichuan walked out of the door, she began to look around the room.

Thinking about how to arrange it and what to add.

Make her and Duan Xichuan's future home look more homey and cozy.

When she looked up at the window, she found that there were no curtains. Although the two lower panes of glass were covered with old newspapers, it did not look very beautiful and was not private enough.

Since she had nothing to do anyway, she searched in the desk drawer and actually found a few nails and a small hammer.

Then he stood on a chair, knocked a few times, and nailed an iron nail on each side of the window.

Then he took out a pink top and purple bottom women's Hanfu from the space and cut off the two pink belts on the Hanfu.

Then he neatly cut off the double-layer skirt underneath the Hanfu.

This double-layer skirt has a white lining and a purple outer layer. The material is light and the color is fresh, making it perfect for making a double-layer curtain.

Shen Xiaobei cut a few small holes of the same size at the top of the skirt, and then passed a belt through the small holes.

After putting it on, tie the two ends of the belt to the iron nails on both sides of the window, and a double-layer curtain that can be pushed and pulled is easily made.

As soon as the curtain was hung, it immediately added a touch of soft brightness to the simple room, making it feel a little warmer.

Duan Xichuan had just gone to the cafeteria to get his meal when he came back and immediately felt that the room seemed a little different.

After taking a closer look, I immediately realized that there was an extra curtain with such a pleasing color.

Then he asked in surprise: "Girl, did you make these curtains?"

"Well, does it look good?"

"It looks great, really great, like a new house."

"Just one more curtain makes it look like a new house? I still have a lot of places I want to decorate!"

"Okay, then you can decorate it however you like, as long as you don't tear down the house the army allocated to us."

"Really? So you said, as long as I don't tear the house down, I can decorate it however I want!"

"Yes, I said so. Well, you must be starving, let's eat first. How about you try the food in the compound cafeteria?"

Duan Xichuan placed the food he got from the cafeteria on the table one by one.

One serving of braised eggplant and shredded pork, one serving of stir-fried pork belly with green peppers, three fried eggs, one vegetable, and two servings of rice.

"How many food coupons do you need to buy so many vegetables?"

"Don't worry, it's not much. Just eat as much as you can."

"I can't eat so much rice, I'll give you some!"
