Chapter 214 Too embarrassed to see anyone

Ning Jiandong looked at Wen Shi, then at Yi Chichi, and asked a question from the depths of his soul.

"Then how did you two fall in love with each other?"

The couple exchanged glances, and You Wen Shi answered.

"It's fate."

He refused to say a single word more, and Ning Jiandong did not think of asking further questions. He just said, "I hope my eldest nephew will find his destiny soon."

At this point, he sighed, "I'm not young anymore. If I don't get married now, I really won't be able to find a wife."

"Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings."

Yi Chichi comforted.

Ning Jiandong thought it made sense, but he was still worried.

I couldn't help but complain, "Why don't you have a sister?"

Yi Chichi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It turned out that it was her fault that she had no sisters and married his eldest nephew.

This is really unreasonable.

"Uncle, you can ask your friends if they have an older niece. If you mobilize the surrounding social circles, it will be easy for the Ning family to find a wife if they really want to."

It’s easy indeed, but most people don’t look down on it.

The ones he liked either had a partner or were already married. Those who were neither partnered nor married were rejected because of his eldest nephew's military status.

The identity of a military wife is a temptation for many unmarried lesbians, especially country girls.

However, most families who understand the military community and truly love their daughters do not agree with their good daughters becoming military wives.

Because being a military wife is difficult.

It’s better for those who can follow the army, but those who cannot will not only be separated from their parents, but also have to bear the burden of supporting the elderly and raising children.

This also made it difficult for his eldest nephew to find a partner.

“He’s demanding.”

"Let him find it himself."

Wen Shi gave sincere advice, "Uncle, you also said that he has many requirements. Even if you really find him one, he may not be interested in it. Why bother with that?"

This made sense, and Ning Jiandong took it to heart.

"Go back and tell big brother."

The meal was finished while we chatted and laughed.

After coming out of the state-owned hotel, Ning Jiandong asked them where they would sleep that night, or whether they could go to his house.

Wen Shi refused, saying that he had a place to sleep.

Then, both parties said goodbye and left in different directions.

Ning Jiandong returned home, and Wen Shi took Yi Chichi to meet his retired comrade Hou Dahai.

This is a tall and burly bearded man, but he has a baby face that makes him look younger than he actually is.

The contrast is absolutely amazing.

His voice was like a loud bell, and Yi Chichi felt like he heard thunder when he spoke.

When he saw Wen, he gave him a bear hug, and then Bang Bang punched him twice.

"You bastard, you know me when you need me, but when you don't need me, I just ignore you. Who can be a brother like you?"

His words were full of complaints, but his clear and determined eyes were filled with joy.

Obviously, he was surprised by Wen Shi's arrival.

"You're not talking like a piece of shit."

Wen Shi rolled his eyes without any image, then pointed at Yi Chichi and said, "Meet my wife Yi Chichi."

"Chi Chi, this is my brother Hou Dahai in Border Town, you can call him Monkey Brother or not."

"Hello, sister-in-law."

"Hello, Monkey."

After the two sides greeted each other, Hou Dahai asked, "Have you eaten?"

"have eaten."

Wen Shi handed him the lunch box in his hand, "This is the braised pork for you."

"Let me take a look."

Hou Dahai opened the lunch box and took a look. He was so happy that his teeth were not visible. "That's quite decent. You know to bring me some food."

At this point, he said dissatisfiedly, "You brought the meat, why didn't you bring me the rice?"

“…I forgot.”

Wen Shi said confidently, "I only care about your love for meat, not your love for rice."

Hou Dahai didn't know how to respond to this, so he could only take everyone to the cafeteria to eat and chat.

"Night duty?"

"There's a case, and I've been working non-stop for a while."

Hou Dahai is a military-turned-public security officer, and the case that can keep them busy must be quite important.

Wen Shi, who knew the rules, didn't think of asking. Yi Chichi, who came from an information-rich world and had someone in his family doing the same job, was even less likely to ask.

So the two sides talked about other things.

Just after finishing his meal, someone came to call Hou Dahai to go on a mission. He apologized, "I'm sorry, Brother Wen, the mission is more important. See you next time."

"good."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The cafeteria is behind the police station. To go to the front, one has to go through the office. When passing by his desk, Hou Dahai opened it and took the ticket and handed it to him.

"The cadre carriage will be at 7:15 tomorrow morning. Don't get the time wrong and miss the train."

"No mistake."

Wen Shi took the ticket and replied. Hou Dahai hummed and nodded to Yi Chichi, "See you next time, sister-in-law."

"Monkey, be safe."

Yi Chichi said goodbye politely, then he and Wen Shi stood at the door and watched him and his colleagues ride away at lightning speed on their bicycles.

After the people disappeared from their sight, the two of them walked towards the train station leisurely.

"Do the police always ride bicycles when on missions?"

"That's great. I used to walk."

Wen Shi smiled and said, "I have a comrade who was demobilized and worked as a police officer in a township in Nancheng. There was only one bicycle in the entire police station. If someone rode it away, he would have to walk or run if there was a mission."

Yi Chichi,...this is what my uncle and others call the foot-pedal era.

By the end of the 1970s, the motorcycle era would begin.

First came the two-wheeled motorcycles, and then the sidecar three-wheeled vehicles commonly known as "cazi with a bucket".

Then came the era of four wheels.

However, we are still too far away from the four-wheel era, and it will take several years for two-wheel and three-wheel eras.

"When you are on a mission in the border town, what means of transportation do you rely on?"

"In normal cases, it's a car, and in special cases, it's a horse, a bicycle, or even both legs."

“It’s not easy.”

She couldn't help but sigh, and Wen Shi took advantage of the opportunity to whisper, "Wife, you see, it's not easy for me, you have to love me more in the future."

Ever since they confirmed their relationship, this guy has been shamelessly developing the relationship.

If it were a shy girl, she probably wouldn’t know how to answer him.

However, Yi Chichi was thick-skinned and nodded when he heard it, "Okay, I will definitely take good care of you."

Her loving gesture was unique, and she drew a picture for him in the guesthouse.

Pencil, white paper, sketch.

Before the painting was finished, Wen Shi posed according to her request and was full of expectations for the painting. He also secretly decided not to give the painting to his wife, but to keep it for his own collection.

After finishing the painting, he felt a heat wave rushing from the soles of his feet to the top of his head when he saw the painting. His face turned red, his heart beat fast, and he had difficulty breathing.

"What, what is this?"

His lips trembled as he looked at Yi Chichi in disbelief.

“You.”

Yi Chichi asked him with a smile, "Do you like it?"

"I like it, but wife, don't you think there's something wrong with your painting?"

Which kind person would paint such a bitter painting for her man? Yi Chichi, who didn't think there was anything wrong with his painting, smiled and said, "You don't show your love to others, so what are you afraid of?"

"...I'll keep it."

He took the sketch, folded it and put it in his pocket, and made up his mind not to let anyone get close to him until he got home tomorrow.

Otherwise he would be too embarrassed to see anyone.
