There are many people from Guangdong Province on Qiongzhou Island, and a lot of educated young people went to the countryside to work in the past few years.

There are many comrades from Guangzhou in the First Division of the Corps where Lu Wei is stationed, but few of their families are willing to follow the army to the island.

Some family members would make the trip once a month, and usually bring some long-lasting foods such as Yangcheng's cured meats, chicken biscuits, and wife biscuits to their comrades.

Because it is quite convenient to travel between Guangzhou and Qiongzhou Island, there is a round-trip ferry to the island every day.

Although it takes 30 hours by boat, you can reach the shore directly without any hassles.

However, as far as he knew, the relatives of his comrades were unwilling to join the army, mainly because of the language barrier.

In their words, it's like talking at cross purposes.

You don't understand what I say, and I don't understand what you say.

In terms of development, Guangzhou is indeed far behind Qiongzhou Island.

As Lu Weiyi headed south, he was thinking about his mother's noisy nature, and he wondered if it would scare his wife away.

Now he's on a business trip and I can't see him anymore.

But his wife's excited expression after seeing the prosperous Guangzhou made him even more worried.

Why did it seem to him that Ye Zhi wanted to stay in Yangcheng?

But Ye Zhi ignored him, smiled, took her clothes and went into the bathroom.

She remembered that Lu Wei had said before that if she didn't want to go to Qiongzhou Island, she could stay in Yangcheng and live with his mother.

Why do you look like you have a toothache now?

Never mind, she just wanted to buy some things and didn't really plan to stay here, so let him guess.

Not long after, Ye Zhi changed into a clean set of clothes and washed her hair.

In an instant, the sweet smell filled the small room.

When they came out, Ye Zhi smiled and said, "It's really convenient. Big cities are big cities. The guesthouse actually has faucets for showering directly."

Lu Wei, who was packing his luggage on the other side, had a darker face again, even gloomier than before.

"Ye Xiaoding, go take a shower quickly, you stink!" Ye Zhi walked to Ye Xiaoding while wiping her hair and pulled him to find some clean clothes.

Ye Xiaoding was originally standing at the window looking at the large ships at the dock. In the distance, there were not only two- or three-story ships, but also large cargo ships. He was stunned by what he saw, because he had never seen such large ships!

After hearing Ye Zhi's instructions, Ye Xiaoding quickly found a set of clean clothes from the bag and ran into the bathroom.

Ye Zhi reminded him, "Remember to use soap!"

Lu Wei, who was standing by, looked at Ye Zhi wiping her long black hair with a towel with a sullen face.

This was the first time he saw her with her hair down, and every time they met before that was more formal.

Even when she was sleeping on the train these two days, Ye Zhi tied her hair into two braids.

Looking at it now, it makes me feel itchy.

Ye Xiaoding in the bathroom suddenly shouted: "Auntie, there is no water, how can I take a shower?"

Just as Ye Zhi was about to go to the bathroom to help him, Lu Wei walked in before her: "I'll do it."

All right.

Come if you want.

Although Ye Zhi had just rushed through, the sultry weather soon made her sweat again, the kind that made her sweat after taking two steps.

After a while, Lu Wei came out of the bathroom. Seeing Ye Zhi standing at the window looking at the pier in the distance, he couldn't help but ask again, "Don't you want to go to Qiongzhou Island?"

Ye Zhi almost forgot the conversation just now, but she didn't expect Lu Wei was still thinking about it.

Ye Zhi stopped wiping her hair and looked back at him: "I never said that."

"Or do you not want me to go?" Ye Zhi looked over and asked back.

Lu Wei suddenly stood up from the chair, and the wooden stool dragged on the floor, making a harsh squeak.

Lu Wei said seriously: "I didn't say that either."

Ye Zhi couldn't help but laugh and said, "That's fine, isn't it? This is my first time in a big city, can't I be happy for a bit?"

"Stingy!"

Lu Wei's ears turned red and he turned his face away.

Seeing that he really couldn't take a joke, Ye Zhi changed the subject and said, "After Xiao Ding finishes taking a shower, you should go take a shower too."

In fact, she knew that Lu Wei hadn't slept much on the train these two days, so he should take a shower and have a good rest now.

The three of them rested for a while and then went out to find something to eat.

The best food is in Guangzhou, this is not an empty statement.

Any state-owned store on the street will have a lot of food that will make you drool.

However, in order to save money for daily necessities, Ye Zhi only ordered a bowl of boat porridge when they went to the state-owned restaurant, while Lu Wei ordered a plate of rice rolls and Ye Xiaoding ordered two barbecued pork buns.

Just now, Ye Xiaoding saw a group of children gathered around the steamer in the restaurant, saying something about "cha cha bao" in a language he couldn't understand. Anyway, he couldn't understand it, so he just understood the word "bao".

Ye Xiaoding thought that since so many children loved to eat it, it must be suitable for their children's taste, so he ordered the buns without thinking.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I put it in my mouth, the bun exuded the aroma of barbecued pork, which stimulated my taste buds and made me salivate.

Ye Xiaoding even licked the barbecued pork sauce dripping on his wrist and said hurriedly: "Delicious, so delicious!!"

Ye Zhi’s boat porridge is a very large pot, served directly in a casserole, and it is still emitting hot steam when it is served.

She asked someone to bring two small bowls and gave some to Lu Wei and Ye Xiaoding.

Seeing this, Lu Wei also picked up some rice noodle rolls for her: "This is delicious, you try it."

However, Ye Zhi saw that his rice rolls were a bit small and he could not eat more than a few bites.

How can a little rice roll be enough for a grown man like him?

Ye Zhi said, "That's enough. You can eat it. You don't have to give it to me."

Seeing that she was enjoying the meal, Lu Wei said, "If it's not enough, you can have another one."

Ye Zhi said hurriedly: "That's enough, I can't eat much."

However, it is really hard to refuse rice rolls, especially the white, tender, chewy and smooth ones. Ye Zhi said she didn't want to eat it, but when Lu Wei picked it up, she didn't refuse.

Finally, Ye Zhi bought an extra fried dough stick.

The fried dough sticks are crispy and fragrant on the outside and soft and delicious on the inside, leaving you with an endless aftertaste.

Lu Wei watched Ye Zhi eating with relish, but he picked out the green onions and shredded ginger from the boat porridge.

He silently kept this in mind.

Ye Zhi doesn't eat onions and ginger.

Because she had to take a ferry early the next morning, Ye Zhi did not plan to go back to the guesthouse to rest. Instead, she went directly to the state-owned store to buy daily necessities.

Although Lu Wei's mother had something urgent to do and couldn't meet him, she had someone send him a large stack of Great Unity and various bills, including grain coupons, meat coupons, daily necessities coupons, non-staple food coupons, etc.

Moreover, many of the tickets were national tickets, which were said to be gifts prepared for her.

He also said that some other things that were inconvenient to pick up were sent to Lu Wei’s Corps by post.

Ye Zhi felt unworthy of this.

We haven't met yet, but I've already accepted this gift.

Before going out, Ye Zhi asked Lu Wei to call her so that she could talk to his mother, but Lu Wei said that his mother should be on a business trip.

I'm afraid I'll have to wait until next time I come to Guangzhou.

I don’t know when the next time will be.

While on the train, Ye Zhi chatted with Lu Wei about the situation on Qiongzhou Island.

She knew that many things on Qiongzhou Island were transported from here by ship.

Daily necessities, food, and non-staple foods are more expensive on the island than here.

The main problem is that it is always out of stock.

On the way to the state-owned store, Lu Wei said, "Don't save money for me. Just buy what you need first. Otherwise, many things will be scarce on the island and you won't be able to buy them even if you want."

"I will give you my salary passbook when the time comes, but I didn't bring it with me this time. I will give it to you when I return to the army."

Ye Zhi met Lu Wei's serious eyes, nodded, and then jokingly asked: "How much money have you saved over the years?"

Lu Wei's eyes were full of smiles, and then he said a number that scared Ye Zhi.

"This... so much?" Ye Zhi widened her eyes with a look of disbelief.

Lu Wei rarely made a joke and said, "Maybe my family is afraid that I will starve to death on Qiongzhou Island."

However, Lu Wei was either in the military academy or in the barracks all year round, and he didn't smoke or drink, so it was normal for him to save some money.

But I didn’t expect the amount to be so large!

Since entering this era, Ye Zhi’s concept of money is that anything over one dollar is considered a huge amount!

Those who can show great unity are all wealthy people!

Well, this means she has found a rich husband.

Therefore, Ye Zhi is now considered a wealthy and powerful person.

She had just written down what she wanted to buy with pen and paper when she was at the guesthouse, and now she just had to go to the supply and marketing cooperative and pick them out.

The shops in Guangzhou are all big. This time they went to a three-story shop. Ye Zhi was able to buy almost everything in one go.

But the main thing is to buy some kitchen supplies and seasonings.

Although there is a canteen in the army, they have now formed a family.

Lu Wei still has to have a full meal, so that his life can be considered fulfilling.

The next step is to buy some plates, bowls, pans, and utensils. Lu Wei has some in the army, but Ye Zhi and Ye Xiaoding haven’t prepared any yet.

Lu Wei just said that these things can be put on the ship in advance, and then transported to the dock on the island and picked up with the registration slip.

Although she is now one of the wealthy, she still can't help but calculate the price when it comes to buying things.

Sure enough, married people become stingy.

Just like now, Ye Zhi was looking at a big mirror. She felt like she hadn't looked in the mirror for a long time, and all of a sudden she couldn't move.

Before in Xitang Town, because there were so many women, a mirror would be smashed to pieces due to the constant fighting over it.

Later, each person simply had to look at the corners. The only part that could be reflected by the corners of the mirror was her mouth and nose. She hadn't seen her entire face for a long time.

At this moment, Ye Zhi couldn't leave. She looked exactly the same as in her previous life.

I really miss this face.

But when Ye Zhi looked at the price, it was two dollars!

Just when Ye Zhi was about to change another one, Lu Wei on the other end picked up the mirror Ye Zhi had just looked in and gave it to the salesperson: "Comrade, I want this one."

Ye Zhi walked up to him and asked, "What do you need such a big mirror for?"

Lu Wei smiled: "Isn't that what you want?"

Ye Zhi's face said 'I don't have it'.

Lu Wei: "I saw you look at it twice just now, and I think you probably want it."

When the salesperson heard what the two said, he suddenly felt as if his heart was hit by a sharp blow.

Ye Zhi just smiled and let him pay.

Coming out of the state-owned store, Lu Wei and Ye Xiaoding were both carrying a lot of things, but Ye Zhi seemed not to have finished shopping yet and walked towards the grocery store over there.

She turned around and said to them, "Please buy some more chicken biscuits and walnut cakes, and two more bottles of soy sauce and sugar."

If there are children around, you must prepare some snacks.

Of course, Ye Zhi was also greedy.

If you go to the island, it might be hard to buy.

However, the island is humid and full of moisture, so you can't buy too much, otherwise it will easily get damp.

Ye Xiaoding looked at Ye Zhi curiously and said, "Aunt, are chicken biscuits... edible?"

"Why don't you raise the chickens a little bigger and use them to lay eggs? Why do you make pancakes when they are so young?"

Ye Xiaoding's face was full of regret and heartache.

An auntie wearing a headscarf nearby couldn't help laughing when she heard what Ye Xiaoding said, "Kid, they also sell wife cakes! Why do you think they sell their wives?"

Ye Xiaoding was so frightened that his face turned pale. He said, "Grandma said there are a lot of human traffickers in big cities. I didn't expect it to be true! They even sell their wives!"

"Aunt, why don't we report to the police? Selling chickens is fine, but how can he sell his wife as well?" Ye Xiaoding took the aunt's words seriously and quickly avoided her.

Ye Zhi glanced at Lu Wei beside her, smiled and said, "Your uncle is a soldier, you can report it to him."

Seeing Ye Xiaoding almost crying out of fright, Lu Wei said, "Auntie is just teasing you. There is no chicken in the chicken biscuits, and wife biscuits are not selling wives, they are just a name."

Ye Xiaoding's expression was like an overturned palette. In the end, he didn't know what he was thinking, and he said silently: "Isn't that just a lie? Why is it called wife cake if you don't have a wife..."

Ye Zhi found it very funny. It was indeed fun to bring Ye Xiaoding along.

I can also help her carry things.

When the elder sister saw Ye Zhi and the others buying so many things, she asked, "Your accent doesn't sound like that of locals. Are you going to Qiongzhou Island?"

Ye Zhi nodded: "Well, we are not locals, we are going to Qiongzhou Island tomorrow."

The eldest sister smiled and asked, "Is this your first time going? Are you going to join the army right after you got married?"

She looks fair and tender, and doesn't look like the people on the island at all.

"Yes, big sister." Ye Zhi heard that the aunt's accent didn't sound like she was from Guangzhou, and she was carrying a large backpack, so she asked, "Big sister, are you planning to go to Qiongzhou Island too?"

The older sister nodded and said, "Yes, I came here to visit my relatives and buy some things. I just heard from that kid that your husband is a soldier? My husband is also a soldier. His name is Chen Baoguo, and he is the commander of the Eighth Battalion. If you come to the island, you can talk to me."

Ye Zhi smiled and said, "Okay, big sister, my name is Ye Zhi, my man is Lu Wei, I'll come and play with you when we get to the island."

When the elder sister heard the name 'Lu Wei', she immediately felt a little familiar, but she couldn't think of who it was.

Then the eldest sister said, "This is your first time on the island. You should know that you will have to take a boat for more than 30 hours, right? Buy some sour plums and seasickness medicine now, otherwise it will be very uncomfortable."

But looking at Lu Wei next to Ye Zhi, he not only took all the things, but also kept glancing over here, as if he was very worried about his woman talking to a stranger.

You can tell at a glance that he loves his wife, so he's probably ready.

Ye Zhi was so busy buying household items that she forgot that she had to take a boat for more than 30 hours tomorrow. Only when her elder sister reminded her did she remember.

"Okay, big sister, you are so kind, thank you for reminding me."

The eldest sister waved her hand and said, "Don't be polite. If there is a chance, let's see if we can meet on the boat tomorrow. I'm going to buy a bottle of fermented bean curd first, and I won't chat with you anymore."

Ye Zhi nodded: "Okay."

Lu Wei saw the person leave, then came over and asked, "What did she say?"

Ye Zhi took out a bottle of chili sauce, put it on the cabinet, and said, "My eldest sister said she was going to buy some fermented bean curd. Do you want to eat fermented bean curd?"

Lu Wei: "No, if you want to eat it, just buy it."

Ye Zhi thought about it and felt that stir-fried water spinach with fermented bean curd seemed quite delicious as well.

Otherwise, buy a bottle.

Ye Zhi asked again: "Just now the elder sister asked me to buy some seasickness medicine and sour plums. Where can I buy them?"

Lu Wei looked at Ye Zhi and walked towards another counter, then signaled Ye Xiaoding to follow him with his eyes, and replied, "I've already bought it."

Hearing this, Ye Zhi turned around and smiled: "So fast? You actually bought everything? When did you buy it?"

How come she doesn't know?

Lu Wei: “Just now.”

Ye Zhi smiled brightly: "You are awesome!" Then she opened a White Rabbit candy, put it in his mouth, and said: "I will give you a candy as a reward."

Lu Wei was just about to say, I'm not a child.

But when he thought about how many candies Ye Xiaoding had eaten in the past few days given by Ye Zhi, he immediately opened his mouth slightly.

Ye Zhi then put the candy into his mouth.

Very sweet.

An idea flashed through Lu Wei's mind, and then he turned back and asked the kiosk to weigh two kilograms of sugar.

I finally got married, so of course I have to share the happy event with everyone.

By the time they had finished shopping, they were exhausted when they returned to the guesthouse.

Ye Xiaoding didn't even take a shower and went straight to bed.

Ye Zhi was also very tired, so she simply washed off the sweat on her body and slept in the same bed with Ye Xiaoding.

When Lu Wei came out of the bathroom, he looked at the other empty bed with a little dissatisfaction.

If Ye Xiaoding tries to snatch his wife from him on the island, don't blame him for throwing her back to Xitang Town.

The next day, Ye Zhi got up at dawn and went to eat the last breakfast in Yangcheng as soon as she woke up.

But just as she got up from the bed, Lu Wei in the bed next to her also opened his eyes and said, "Are you awake? What do you want for breakfast? I'll go buy it."

Ye Zhi glanced at Ye Xiaoding who was still sleeping soundly, and said, "Then buy me a lotus seed paste bun."

"As for Xiao Ding, let's buy barbecued pork buns. He was talking about barbecued pork buns in his sleep last night."

Lu Wei nodded: "Okay."

When Lu Wei came out of the bathroom after washing, he happened to see Ye Zhi tidying up her clothes. Looking at her glowing white skin, Lu Wei's restlessness from waking up in the morning just subsided.

This scene made him feel as if the blood in his body rushed to his head.

Then I felt a warm current flowing down my nose...

Ye Zhi heard the sound of the door opening, turned around, and saw Lu Wei bleeding from his nose.

Lu Wei: “…”

Ye Zhi rushed over in a hurry, "What's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly have a nosebleed?"

Lu Wei didn't want to explain. He gently pushed away Ye Zhi's slender fingers on his arm and said, "It's okay. I'll take care of it." After that, he went back to the bathroom.

Ye Zhi couldn't be relieved, so she followed behind him, handed him a towel, and asked with concern: "Are you okay? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?"

Ye Zhi's mind was full of those TV dramas. Generally, people with cancer have symptoms of nosebleeds.

But Lu Wei looked very healthy and strong, not like a sick person at all. Why did he suddenly become like this?

Lu Wei turned on the faucet and washed the blood with clean water. Soon the bleeding stopped. He waved his hands and did not dare to meet Ye Zhi's eyes.

"I'm fine."

Ye Zhi: "Why is your nose bleeding if nothing happened?"

Lu Wei: “…”

It’s really hard to explain.

Finally, he thought for a moment and explained calmly, "Maybe the weather is too hot and I got a fever."

When Ye Zhi heard this, she found it no wonder.

The weather in Guangzhou is really hot.

It's not that the temperature drops at night, but even the wind is hot.

Moreover, Lu Wei spent another day and night on the train, and even accompanied her to go shopping yesterday.

Maybe I'm really getting angry.

Lu Wei sighed heavily and said, "I'll go buy you breakfast, you wait here."

"Why don't I go? You're not feeling well." Ye Zhi pulled Lu Wei's clothes, fearing that he would have a nosebleed again if he went out.

Lu Wei quietly turned his body to avoid Ye Zhi's touch and said, "I'll go out for some fresh air."

Well, it seems a bit boring to stay in the house.

We will have to sit on the boat for more than 30 hours soon, so it would be nice to go out and get some fresh air.

When Lu Wei came back with breakfast, Ye Xiaoding also woke up, mainly because of excitement.

This child has only been on the raft boat in Xitang Town and has never been on a real ship.

When he heard Lu Wei say yesterday that the ship would go out to sea, he was even more excited and expectant.

He didn't know what the sea was, and no one had ever told him about it before, but Lu Wei patiently explained it to him: "When it's calm, it's like a blue gem, sparkling and shining; but when the wind and waves are raging, it's like a furious monster, terrifying."

But Ye Xiaoding had never seen a gem, let alone a monster, so he found it difficult to understand what Lu Wei said.

So he was looking forward to taking a boat ride to see the sea today.

When Ye Zhi thought about taking a boat for more than 30 hours, her stomach was already churning before she even got on the boat.

She didn't expect the ships of this era to be very stable. After a few waves, they would definitely shake violently, making people lose consciousness.

The few of them ate quickly, then took their light luggage and prepared to board the ship.

Lu Wei had already registered the rest of the luggage and sent it on board last night.

However, before boarding the boat, Ye Zhi looked at the time she still had, and then said she wanted to go buy something.

Lu Wei and Ye Xiaoding were waiting for her at the boarding area.

Not long after, Ye Zhi came back with a kettle in her hand.

Lu Wei didn't ask anything and led them to a cabin on the second floor where there was a small window through which they could look outside.

Ye Zhi sat on the narrow bed, then picked up the kettle on the table, handed it to Lu Wei, and said, "Have some herbal tea."

"Huh?" Lu Wei looked at the teapot in Ye Zhi's fair hands, a little puzzled.

He thought Ye Zhi had gone out to buy some snacks, but it turned out that the kettle was filled with herbal tea?

Ye Zhi smiled, her eyebrows curved into a crescent moon, "Didn't you say you had a sore throat? I asked the big brother at the herbal tea shop, and he said that if you have a sore throat, you can drink some herbal tea to cure it."

Lu Wei: “…”

It's quite adaptable to local customs.

Lu Wei took the herbal tea handed to him by Ye Zhi, then placed it on the narrow chopping board and said, "Let's drink it on the island."

Ye Zhi smiled and said, "Are you afraid of suffering?"

Ye Zhi walked a little closer, she was standing while Lu Wei was sitting, and Ye Zhi realized that his eyelashes were very long, like a small fan, casting a shadow, his nose was high, his lips were thin, and his finely carved facial features looked somewhat hazy and beautiful in the dimly lit cabin.

Ye Zhi suddenly felt soft-hearted, as scabies were notoriously painful.

Ye Xiaoding on the other end was not idle. When he heard Ye Zhi talking about herbal tea, he thought it was something delicious, so he also shouted, "Auntie, I'm also getting angry. I want to drink herbal tea."

A smile appeared on Ye Zhi's lips. She then took an enamel cup, poured half a cup for Ye Xiaoding, and said, "Drink it up. If you don't finish it, don't even think about eating chicken biscuits."

Ye Xiaoding looked at the dark tea with a smug look on his face, "This is not enough, little aunt."

It turns out that married people are all stingy.

Ye Xiaoding gulped it down and suddenly, he nearly spit it all out. However, under Ye Zhi's angry glare, he swallowed it down his throat again: "Wow, what is this? It's so bitter!!" As he said that, he ran to the deck, and soon several vomiting sounds were heard.

Ye Zhi chuckled.

Lu Wei looked at her smile, the dimple on her lips faintly visible, and suddenly reached out and pulled her to his side. The narrow space made the atmosphere suddenly become ambiguous.

Ye Zhi struggled to break free but failed. The next second, she was pulled into his arms and fell directly onto his lap.

The two looked at each other, and Lu Wei gritted his teeth and groaned, "It's not that kind of anger."

“…”

On the boat, Lu Wei couldn't do anything out of line, but this was already the most outrageous thing they had done since they got married.

Ye Zhi covered her face, turned her back and lay on the bed which was so small that she couldn't even stretch her legs, and didn't want to look at him anymore.

Lu Wei pursed his lips and walked out triumphantly.

It took more than half an hour to catch Ye Xiaoding. The boat was moving very slowly on the river.

At night I heard that we had just reached the river mouth, and beyond the river mouth was the sea.

You are not allowed to go on the deck at night to prevent people from sneaking in.

There was a small window in Ye Zhi's cabin, through which they could see the twinkling stars on the opposite bank, but otherwise it was pitch black.

Late at night, Ye Zhi could not bear it any longer. She hugged Ye Xiaoding with one hand and rested her head on Lu Wei's broad shoulders. But as soon as she smelled the refreshing scent on the man, Ye Zhi's sleepiness disappeared again. But I had already been beaten and didn’t want to move anymore, so I could only close my eyes and rest.

The next day, Ye Zhi, who had not slept much, began to feel dizzy. In the end, she could not resist the consequences of seasickness and vomited yellow water.

Ye Xiaoding also vomited, but after vomiting twice the child actually got used to it.

Ye Zhi felt that staying in the cabin all the time was not a solution, so she asked Lu Wei to help her go to the deck to get some fresh air.

As soon as I walked out, I saw Ye Xiaoding playing with a boy of similar age. They hung an enamel cup with a rope and put it in the sea to fill it with water.

Ye Xiaoding said: "How can the water be salty? Look at this clear water, it's so sweet!"

Another child quickly pulled up an enamel cup filled with water and said in Cantonese: "Sea water is salty, it's salty, I got it up, drink it! If it's not salty, I'll cut off my head and make it a stool for you to sit on!"

Ye Xiaoding took the enamel cup and looked at the clear, almost transparent sea water. He refused to believe it and took another sip. Then he spit it out again: "Damn, it's so salty!"

This made the crowd on the deck laugh.

Ye Zhi found it magical. One spoke Cantonese and the other spoke Mandarin. How did they communicate so smoothly?

Then, Ye Zhi met the elder sister she met in Yangcheng again. Seeing how weak Ye Zhi looked, she gave her some brown sugar and asked Lu Wei to make some water for her to drink.

However, Ye Zhi vomited whatever she drank and would rather not drink at all.

Ye Zhi didn't stay for long before she started to feel dizzy again, so she simply went back to sleep.

Except for being woken up by Lu Wei to feed her some water and biscuits, Ye Zhi was groggy throughout the whole process and had no idea what was going on.

It was not until the sound of the boat's horn was heard that Ye Zhi realized they were about to reach the shore.

The deck was full of people, saying, "What a beautiful sunset."

It was just after six in the evening, and half of the sun had already set below the sea level, emitting a red glow around it, making every wave glow with starlight. From a distance, it looked like white fish chasing and playing.

Magnificent.

However, Ye Zhi didn't have the strength to get up to watch the first sunset on Qiongzhou Island, and she fell asleep before reaching the shore.

Even when I got off the boat, I was still in a daze. I seemed to hear the voice of the elder sister I met in Guangzhou, and I also heard Ye Xiaoding calling her.

But Ye Zhi couldn't make any reaction. She could only vaguely smell a refreshing scent mixed with the salty smell of sea water.

Lu Wei held her in his arms and walked down from the deck, then went to the place where the military district usually picked people up and waited.

His luggage was taken down with the help of others. Ye Xiaoding drank some sea water and vomited twice. Now he looked like a wilted chicken, with his head hanging down.

Lu Wei looked down at Ye Zhi in his arms, his face was so pale that it made people feel distressed.

Fortunately, Li Weimin came to pick us up soon in a jeep.

Li Weimin was shocked when he saw it.

Li Weimin looked into Lu Wei's arms and said, "Captain Lu, you can really treat me like this on the boat? You don't have to do this even after you got married!"

Then he saw a little guy at Lu Wei's feet, but he didn't have time to ask anything.

Lu Wei on the other end of the line frowned and said, "Shut up and get your luggage." After that, he carried Ye Zhi to the back row.

Ye Xiaoding called out to Li Weimin, "Uncle." Then he got into the car at Lu Wei's signal.

Li Weimin dared not delay, and quickly threw their luggage behind him, then quickly got into the car and drove towards the military area.

Li Weimin had been looking at the girl that Lu Wei was hugging tightly through the rearview mirror. No need to ask, this was the girl he had been engaged to as a child.

If his wife hadn't been there, Li Weimin would have definitely said something bad about him.

Who said "feudal" in the first place?

How loudly it was spoken!

How painful it is to be slapped in the face now!

The look of care and protection on him. Li Weimin has known Lu Wei for all these years, but he has never seen Lu Wei protecting anyone like this.

Even when he was hit by bullets twice, he didn't make a sound.

Li Weimin asked, "Is your wife okay? Do you want to go to the military hospital?"

Lu Wei noticed that the person in his arms trembled slightly, then he looked down and saw Ye Zhi biting her lips tightly, and seemed to have woken up.

I guess, I'm embarrassed.

Lu Wei tightened his arms to prevent others from seeing Ye Zhi's face, and said, "No, drive to my... my yard."

Before getting married, Lu Weiyi lived in a dormitory with a battalion commander.

However, a few days ago when he submitted his marriage report, the political commissar said that there was a vacant yard, so he directly allocated it to him.

Li Weimin should know about this.

Li Weimin glanced at the rearview mirror: "Okay."

The jeep drove for about half an hour and finally entered the military camp, and then drove into the family compound.

There are terraced red brick houses and independent courtyards here.

Lu Weifen's house had an independent yard. The yard was very large, but it was overgrown with all kinds of grass, and it was obvious that no one had lived there for a long time.

Lu Wei got out of the car holding Ye Zhi and strode into the yard.

Li Weimin walked in front and unlocked the door for him, then said, "I called a few new recruits to clean up the place a few days ago. It was just a casual job, so you may need to sort it out again later. I have also packed up your things in the dormitory for you. Apart from the things in the locked cabinet, see if there is anything missing. You can go and clean it up yourself when the time comes."

Lu Wei nodded: "Okay, I'll handle it myself, you go back."

Li Weimin: "??? Really, you didn't even give me a cup of tea, you're just destroying the bridge after crossing it!"

Lu Wei hugged the person and said unhappily, "Do you think I have tea for you to drink at home?"

Ye Zhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She was completely awake now, but she really didn't want to face...

And I really had no strength in my whole body, especially when I was in Lu Wei's arms, I really didn't want to move, it was so comfortable.

Li Weimin watched Lu Wei walk skillfully into the largest room, and then gently placed the person in his arms on the bed.

Lu Wei leaned close to Ye Zhi's face and whispered, "I'll go take care of some official business, then get some food in the cafeteria. You can take a rest and do the housework tomorrow."

Li Weimin still wanted to take a look at what the little boy looked like, but Lu Wei had already walked out and closed the door.

mean!

Li Weimin raised his eyebrows at him and asked in a low voice: "What's going on? Are you happy to be married?"

Lu Wei was too lazy to pay attention to him, and quickly called Ye Xiaoding who was outside the door in and told him to look after Ye Zhi.

Lu Wei: "Xiao Ding, look after your aunt. I have to go take care of some official business and will be back in about half an hour. If you are hungry, eat some walnut pastry first. I will go to the cafeteria and bring back some food later."

"By the way, if anyone knocks on the door, don't open it until I come back."

Ye Xiaoding nodded: "Okay, I understand."

Afterwards, Lu Wei and Li Weimin walked out the door.

But no one knew what he was thinking of. Lu Wei turned back and took out a few candies from his luggage bag and stuffed them into the loud speaker Li Weimin's pockets: "Wedding candy."

Li Weimin smiled and said, "You are a good brother."

In another corner of the family compound, they saw Lu Wei and Li Weimin walking towards the political commissar's office and began to whisper.

"I heard that Captain Lu of the Sixth Regiment got married? He was even given a courtyard. Who did he marry?"

"You don't know yet? Isn't it Lu Wei, the leader of the Sixth Regiment! The one who just walked by. I heard that his grandfather arranged a marriage for him, so he went back to find a wife while on this mission."

"Child marriage? What era is this? My husband and I are in a free relationship, and isn't Lu Wei quite handsome and tall? Why do we still need a child marriage?"

"I heard that the child bride is still a 23-year-old old girl who has not married yet. If Mr. Lu hadn't found their family some time ago, she would probably still be unmarried!"

"A girl in the countryside who is still unmarried at the age of 23? How bad must her condition be to become an old maid? Would Captain Lu be interested in her?"

"The old man forced me to marry her. I heard she was very ugly. She was too embarrassed to see anyone when she got off the boat at the dock."

"What a shame for Captain Lu! How many girls in the Military Region Hospital and the Propaganda Department like him!"

"What are you ruining? With Lu Wei's temper, I hope he won't make the female comrade cry!"

On this side, Ye Zhi sat up from the bed after hearing that Lu Wei and his comrades had left.

After sitting for a while, I finally felt less dizzy and began to look at the structure of the house.

This should be a red brick house, but the inner walls are plastered with cement and are relatively flat, and the roof is flat, not tiled.

The building is nearly four meters high and looks quite spacious.

The bed was a single bed, probably moved from Lu Wei's dormitory.

The quilts are all army green, probably the ones Lu Wei used before.

There was nothing else in the room except a bed and a chest of drawers, so the room seemed very empty and large.

She got out of bed, put on her shoes, tidied her hair and walked out of the living room.

Ye Xiaoding heard the noise, looked up at Xian Yezhi, and said, "Aunt, why don't you lie down for a while? Uncle said he had to go out for something and would be back later."

Ye Zhi walked to Ye Xiaoding, touched his head, and said, "I'm much better now. You play first, and I'll look around."

The whole house is very large, and the living room is more than ten square meters. In the middle there is an old round table and a few stools, and nothing else.

There isn't even a table, but the house is large.

Although now
