This is another encampment, consisting of rows of simple mud-brick houses. Each mud-brick house has two rooms, one on the east and one on the west, and inside each room is a large kang (heated brick bed). Several shirtless Eighth Route Army soldiers are sitting on the kang.

The moment he entered, the stench made Si Mingye frown.

Chu Wanwan, unaccustomed to this situation, smiled and asked Li Jun, "Do you have any couples' rooms here?"

"Are you a couple?" Li Jun looked at Chu Wanwan and Si Mingye in surprise. He had not asked about their relationship before, and now that Chu Wanwan asked this, he couldn't help but feel curious.

Chu Wanwan nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, we are husband and wife. So, I was wondering if there is a room here where we can stay together?"

Li Jun scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "Well... our conditions here are limited, and usually several people squeeze into one room. However, since you are a couple, I will try my best to arrange a separate place for you."

Upon hearing this, Chu Wanwan looked at Li Jun gratefully and said, "Then I'll trouble you, Li Jun."

When Si Mingye heard Chu Wanwan say that they were husband and wife, his ears turned slightly red...

Li Jun led Chu Wanwan and Si Mingye around the camp, trying to find a suitable place for the couple to stay. Finally, they came to a relatively secluded cottage.

"This is a small room with only a table and chairs. You can stay here for now. I'll find you a bed later. Make do for now! Our battalion won't be staying here for many more days!"

Li Jun pushed open the door of the small house. The interior was very simple, with only a set of old tables and chairs.

The whole room was covered in dust, but at least there was no smell of sweat or stinky feet, so it was still barely acceptable.

Si Mingye had experienced all kinds of harsh conditions when he led troops into battle, so the current environment was not unacceptable to him.

Chu Wanwan looked around and nodded in satisfaction: "This place is quite nice, thank you, Li Jun."

"Don't be so formal, I'll go find you beds. Please tidy up here first!"

Li Jun left the house after saying that.

Si Mingye smiled slightly, a hint of tenderness flashing in his eyes, and said softly to Chu Wanwan, "It seems that our married life will begin here."

Chu Wanwan chuckled, "What newlywed life? This is just a temporary measure for me, to avoid sleeping in a dormitory! But if you want to live our newlywed life here, I'm not against it!"
