As soon as Chen Fang left, Ye Zhi started to crave the strawberries that Chen Fang left behind.

Lu Wei said nothing, and directly took the shiny red strawberries to the sink to wash them. Unexpectedly, Ye Zhi couldn't hold back any longer, and followed behind him happily, touching her belly, and said with a smile: "I thought you really didn't want any of them."

Unexpectedly, the strawberries she wanted to eat the most were left!

In the past six months, Ye Zhi had also seen Lu Wei refuse many things given by local villagers.

There was a period of time before when Lu Wei loved to go to the supply and marketing cooperative with her to buy vegetables, where there were more local villagers.

Lu Wei's troops must have helped the local villagers with some work. As soon as the villagers saw Lu Wei, they liked to stuff him with vegetables, fruits, seafood, etc., but Lu Wei never took even a single vegetable.

As the daughter-in-law of Captain Lu, Ye Zhi felt that she should also have such awareness.

Chen Fang is not from their family compound, and is different from He Jinfeng and the others.

If some people with ulterior motives knew about this, they might plot against her behind her back.

Lu Wei curved his lips and said, "I heard you say before that you wanted to grow strawberries, and I thought you would like to eat them."

Moreover, Ye Zhi did look at the strawberry a few times just now, and her eyes were almost entirely on the strawberry.

If he doesn't take it, his wife will probably be depressed all day.

Ye Zhi smiled and said, "Ah? You remember all this? Strawberries are delicious and fragrant. I like them."

Ye Zhi still remembers that it was in November when she just found out she was pregnant and she had morning sickness. She vomited so much that she ate a lot of sour things. At that time, she had a mouthful of strawberries. But I only mentioned it inadvertently when eating carambola, and I didn't expect Lu Wei to remember it.

Lu Wei added, "Comrade Chen brought a big bag of things, but you didn't want any of them and seemed too cold. After all, you are her colleague and you saved her in time, so you should accept this little kindness, otherwise she will feel bad." Lu Wei's army has regulations that soldiers cannot take a penny from the people.

But Ye Zhi and Chen Fang were colleagues, and she had saved her life, so it wouldn't hurt to accept a little bit of kindness.

If there is more, you cannot have it.

Ye Zhi nodded: "I know, thank you Lu Wei."

If it were Lu Wei, he could just return all the things and not think it was a big deal.

But Ye Zhishi was brought into the textile factory by Chen Fang, and they had been friends before.

Lu Wei: "You are my wife, why are you being so polite to me?"

Might as well give him a kiss.

Lu Weiyi cleaned the dust off the strawberries one by one, and then carefully picked off the leaves on the strawberry cubes.

After cleaning it, he pinched the biggest and reddest strawberry, brought it to Ye Zhi's mouth, and said, "Wife, have a taste."

Ye Zhi opened her mouth and took a bite without caring about her image. The sweet and sour taste burst out between her lips and tongue, making Ye Zhi feel satisfied all of a sudden.

Compared to the green oranges and star fruits I had eaten before, strawberries are really fragrant and delicious.

Lu Wei took a look at the bright red strawberry that was half bitten off, and then looked at Ye Zhi's face.

Her eyebrows and eyes are like a painting, as if they were carefully drawn stroke by stroke. The strong classical beauty of Jiangnan, coupled with a comfortable smile, forms a unique painting.

Lu Wei felt that no matter how much he looked at it, he could never get tired of it.

"Comrade Lu, you try it too." Ye Zhi picked up a strawberry from the ones that Lu Wei had washed and put it to his mouth.

As soon as Ye Zhi spoke, Lu Wei saw the strawberry juice stained her lips, which were bright red and moist, and her lips became plump and crystal clear.

Lu Wei unconsciously took a step forward, then leaned over and kissed her on the lips.

A shadow loomed over Ye Zhi's eyes, and she froze in fear. When she came to her senses and wanted to push him away, Lu Wei had already stood up straight with a smile on his lips.

"You're so frivolous!" Ye Zhi reached out and pinched him again, but the corners of her lips also raised an arc.

Lu Wei smacked his lips and said with a smile, "Sweet."

"Do you have any shame? It's broad daylight and there are often people passing by outside the yard. You!" Ye Zhi didn't know what to say to him.

"I kiss my wife, how is that shameless?" Lu Wei glanced at her with a wicked smile.

Ye Zhi rolled her eyes at him in annoyance, "If someone sees you, won't they think you're a hooligan? And you're still laughing!"

Nowadays, couples will be pointed at if they hold hands outside, let alone kissing.

Lu Wei pretended not to understand: "Kissing your own wife is considered hooliganism?"

Ye Zhi glared at him with gritted teeth: "You are a soldier, don't you know better than me?"

Anyway, in her era, kissing was not considered hooliganism.

If this era wasn't too restrictive and she wasn't afraid that Lu Wei would think she was a reckless woman, she would have pounced on him right now!

Feel his abdominal muscles!

Still remember the last time they ate oysters, she took the initiative to kiss him, and Lu Wei couldn't stand it at once.

Lu Wei smiled, picked another one and handed it to her, saying, "Jianjian, this one seems a little sweeter, you eat the top one."

He just tasted one and the tip didn't seem that sour, but the whitish part near the leaves was sour.

Ye Zhi reached out and picked up the half-eaten strawberry, threw it directly into her mouth, and said incoherently: "I like sour food."

Hearing this, Lu Wei frowned. Because Huang Qiuchan was also pregnant, she often came here to chat and drink tea with Ye Zhi.

So he would occasionally hear a few women talking about things like sour boy and spicy girl.

Ye Zhi has eaten so many sour things in the past two months, could she be pregnant with a boy?

When Lu Wei thought about his childhood, he felt a bit of a headache.

"What's the matter? What evil ideas are you up to?" Ye Zhi took a small step back, fearing that he would start messing around again.

Lu Wei smiled and said, "No, I don't have any bad ideas. Let's eat strawberries." Then, he led Ye Zhi to the pavilion to sit and eat.

Seeing that there was still a little bit of dark blue under his eyes, Ye Zhi couldn't bear to make trouble with him anymore, so she obediently ate the strawberries he had washed and left three for Ye Xiaoding.

Ye Xiaoding went back to class and it was almost time for him to go home after school.

However, Lu Wei didn't let her cook, saying that the fire was too hot and he was afraid of burning her stomach.

Ye Zhi couldn't persuade him, so she had to let Lu Wei do it.

After two months of training in the cafeteria, Lu Wei's cooking skills have improved a lot. It turns out that all men have some talent as cooks.

After leaving Ye Zhi's house, Chen Fang went to the military camp and stood at the gate waiting for Commander Zhang.

Commander Zhang almost didn't sleep the whole night. As soon as he returned to the military camp office downstairs, he ran into Chen Fang who was carrying a snakeskin bag.

If it weren't for the gauze on her forehead, he really wouldn't have recognized her.

Chen Fang bowed to Commander Zhang and said, "Commander Zhang, I am Chen Fang, the leader of the sewing group of the textile factory. I reported to you about the fire last night."

Commander Zhang nodded and said, "I remember you. What do you want from me?"

Regarding the cause of the fire in the textile factory, it can be basically confirmed that it was caused by a short circuit caused by aging electrical wires in the workshop.

Chen Fang has also worked in the textile factory for many years and is a responsible employee.

Chen Fang panted, put the snakeskin bag on the ground, and said, "Captain Zhang, I'm here to see you about the fire."

"If it weren't for Comrade Ye Zhi, the wife of the Sixth Regiment's Commander Lu, who discovered the fire in time, our textile factory would have suffered heavy losses, and I might not have had the chance to stand in front of you."

"The workshop is filled with the equipment for next year's recruits, as well as the sails for the fishing command's boats. If any of them is missing, it will be a major loss to the organization."

If there really was a fire, she would have surely died lying unconscious on the ground, so after Chen Fangpo's family and her own family knew about this, they prepared a bunch of things for her early in the morning and told her to deliver them to Ye Zhi to thank her properly.

But due to her status as a military wife, Ye Zhi didn't ask for anything but a few strawberries grown at home.

This made her feel a little guilty.

That's a life-saving grace!

Commander Zhang put his hands behind his back, looked at Chen Fang silently, and then said, "I know about this."

The loss of both the recruits' luggage and the sails would set their work back several years.

Although the islands are rich in resources, fishing has long been an "insignificant" sideline.

Because when they first came to the island for construction, they didn't have the money to build boats. Neither the local fishermen nor the military's professional fishing team had up to standard in fishing. There was no way they could catch any fish in the boundless ocean, so they could only fish on the beach in the first few years.

In the past two years, we have finally had more funds, but it is only the initial stage. With the little money, we built a few fishing boats. Sails are a necessity and are not cheap.

Ye Zhi did appear in time.

Chen Fang looked at Master Zhang and mustered up the courage to say, "Because of Comrade Ye Zhi's identity, she rejected my gift. So I wanted to ask Master Zhang if you could help me deliver all these things to her."

Commander Zhang looked at Chen Fang and asked with a smile, "Is that all?"

Chen Fang shook her head and said seriously, "It's not a small matter. Comrade Ye Zhi saved my life. How can I ever repay her with this little bit of money?"

Commander Zhang sighed, and then said: "Our troops have clear rewards and punishments. Comrade Ye Zhi has made contributions to the troops. We will definitely reward and praise her. Don't worry."

Chen Fang breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that, and then asked, "What about these things?" As she spoke, she pointed to the bulging bag of things on the ground.

Commander Zhang waved his hand and said, "Take it back. This is against the rules."

The people's army will never take a single penny from the common people.

Chen Fang drooped her shoulders. It seemed like this was a wasted trip. She had thought that Commander Zhang would come forward and help her pass the things to Ye Zhi.

Just as she was carrying the snakeskin bag again, ready to return empty-handed, Division Commander Zhang suddenly said, "You can ask your factory director to try that thing."

Chen Fang was stunned for a moment, then she laughed and said, "Thank you, Master Zhang. I will go find our factory director right away!"

Commander Zhang shook his head and smiled helplessly.

Ye Zhi woke up from a nap in the afternoon and saw several people coming outside the yard.

When Ye Zhi took a look, she realized that it was the director, deputy director, and workshop director of the textile factory who had come.

He came and brought several bags of things, which were piled outside the yard.

Ye Zhi quickly invited everyone into the house. Lu Wei had already returned to the military camp, and Ye Xiaoding had also gone to school. Now Ye Zhi was the only one at home.

Ye Zhi poured them some tea, and the factory director motioned for Ye Zhi to sit down: "Comrade Ye, you are not feeling well, so you don't have to be so polite. I came here mainly because of the fire that happened last night."

"If you hadn't discovered it in time, our textile factory would have suffered heavy losses. On behalf of all the employees of the textile factory, I would like to express my gratitude to you."

The factory manager drooped his shoulders slightly. If it weren't for Ye Zhi, their workshop would have been burned down. Not to mention the fabrics, even the sewing machines might not have been saved.

It doesn’t matter whether we celebrate this New Year or not.

Fortunately, according to a preliminary estimate, only about ten feet of cloth was burned, so the important property was saved.

This year, there is finally something to look forward to.

Ye Zhi smiled faintly: "Director, this is what we should do. No matter which comrade sees it, they will definitely inform everyone as soon as possible and try to minimize the losses."

The factory manager smiled and said, "Anyway, I still want to thank you for allowing us to have a peaceful year."

"Also, here are some things our factory prepared for you. I thought it would be inconvenient for you to be pregnant, so I brought them here directly. In addition, I also want to ask you, after you give birth, are you willing to come back to work in our factory?"

The factory manager knew that Ye Zhi had been having a particularly strong reaction since she became pregnant, so Team Leader Lu went straight to the factory and asked for a long vacation for her.

However, Ye Zhi is only a temporary worker, and taking such a long leave means automatically resigning.

But Ye Zhi has helped the factory so much, so they have to keep her now.

And from what Commander Zhang said, it seemed that he was planning to make her a full-time employee in the textile factory, and he also said that he would arrange an easier job for her.

I guess Ye Zhi will be given special recognition at the end-of-year commendation ceremony later on.

Ye Zhi was stunned for a moment, a little surprised. If the factory manager knew that she was going to resign...

But this is an opportunity. After she gives birth to the baby, she will keep her job and still have classes to attend!

She smiled and said, "It is my honor to continue working for the textile factory. Thank you, Director."

The factory manager looked at Ye Zhiying's smile and felt that her words were also very touching, so he waved his hand and said with a smile: "You're welcome. It's you who saved our factory, and we should thank you. You should take good care of your health first. After giving birth and recovering, our factory will welcome you back at any time."

Before leaving, the factory manager left two large bags of things, saying they were rewards from the factory.

Ye Zhi had no choice but to accept it. She opened one of the bags and saw that these were the things Chen Fang had brought her this morning.

Abalone, sea cucumber, bird's nest...

I didn't expect that after going around in circles, I would end up back here with her.
