Military district canteen.
"See? That comrade is the translator we hired this time at a high salary."
"She is so beautiful!"
"He's really tall, and his skin is fair."
"I think she's just so-so, not even as pretty as our Captain Zhou's wife."
"agree."
"That's intellectual beauty, what do you know?"
"You look so eager for quick success. I'm afraid you have a misunderstanding of the word intelligence."
"It's not that I misunderstood, it's that you're jealous that she's prettier than you!"
"I'm jealous of her? Which eye of yours saw that? Tell me clearly."
“…”
"This is the military cafeteria. Let's see if you two still have some military manners. After lunch, come to my office."
A female leader in military uniform, with a serious face and a dignified expression, with her hands behind her back, gave a speech in full force.
"This leader is really powerful. Look at how he scolded those two little girls. They didn't even dare to raise their heads."
Mrs. Hua had never seen such a scene before. She loved to join in the fun and was too lazy to even eat. She just stared with her eyes fixed.
Ruan Xiaotang was sitting opposite, obviously not interested in this, and lowered her head to eat the food in the bowl.
"Sister-in-law, you have been here for a few days. Have you adapted to the environment and living habits here?"
Speaking of this.
Mrs. Hua withdrew her gaze and poked the tofu in the bowl with a somewhat disappointed look.
"Xiaotang, I have to tell you something from the bottom of my heart. I am used to living in the countryside. Every day, I get up before dawn, carry firewood, light the fire, cook, make pig food, feed the pigs, chickens, ducks and geese. When it is dawn, I carry a hoe and go to work with everyone to earn work points... But now, life is too easy. Every day I either eat or sleep. I am so idle that I am going to mold."
Ruan Xiaotang could especially understand her.
Rural people are used to working and can't sit idle.
"Have you planted all the rapeseed seeds I gave you?"
"It's planted. The yard is only as big as my butt. It took me less than an incense stick of time to plant it all."
Look at my sister-in-law, she has so much free time that she even speaks in a weak voice.
"What do you think about us going to a farmer's house in the suburbs and buying some chickens, ducks and geese and raising them in the yard?"
Mrs. Hua instantly perked up, her eyes sparkling.
I asked excitedly, "Really? Do the troops allow us to raise them? They don't even allow us to burn firewood. Raising chickens, ducks and geese is dirty and smelly. My family's Lao Zhao was the first to jump out and say that I was affecting the city appearance."
"Your neighbor can raise a small Shiba Inu to guard the house, so why can't we raise some chickens, ducks, and geese to lay eggs?"
A word of enlightenment can wake up a dreamer.
Mrs. Hua slapped the table in agreement, "Yes, why didn't I think of that? You young people are really quick-witted."
As soon as Liu Jiajia entered the cafeteria, she keenly smelled Ruan Xiaotang's scent.
She held her chest high and confidently, enjoying the admiring looks from all directions, especially from gay men.
With a cold and unapproachable face, he held a lunch box and sat 2 or 3 meters away from Ruan Xiaotang.
He glanced sideways at Ruan Xiaotang not far away.
The red lips that she looked down upon were slightly raised.
Aren't you afraid of losing face by sitting down to eat with that cheap country bumpkin?
Rural people deserve to eat with rural people.
"Xiaotang, there's a woman on your right who's been looking at you."
Mrs. Hua put her palm to her mouth and spoke in a very low voice.
Ruan Xiaotang burst out laughing.
My sister-in-law’s description of “woman” is so accurate.
"Maybe you're interested in this bra I'm wearing. Women like beautiful and eye-catching things."
Ruan Xiaotang knew clearly in her heart that the evil-minded Liu Jiajia had really put a lot of effort into Zhou Xingze.
In the 21st century, her behavior would be considered shameless and outrageous.
She just watched quietly, responding to all changes with her unchanging attitude.
"See how motivated your wife is? Good luck to you, bro."
Zhao Weiguo looked past the crowd getting their food and gazed at the two beauties, Ruan Xiaotang and Liu Jiajia.
There is a sense of weirdness in the calmness, which is not a good sign.
"What nonsense are you talking about? My wife is not the kind of petty woman."
………………
"Zhou Xingze, tell me what's going on!"
"What's going on?"
Zhou Xingze was sitting at the dining table, washing several bowls in a porcelain basin.
Hearing her angry question, the bowl in his guilty hand almost slipped.
When he got home from get off work in the evening, Ruan Xiaotang had a twisted look on his face, as if he wanted to ask something but didn't know how to start.
This is not.
After dinner, I finally couldn't hold it anymore.
Ruan Xiaotang took the feather duster in his sturdy hands and slapped it on the table with a "bang". All his anger was materialized at that moment.
Zhou Xingze's heart trembled.
But his face remained calm and innocent. I don’t know, I don’t understand.
"Tell me clearly, what's going on?"
"Pretend, keep pretending. Now the whole military region has heard that your regiment has been parachuted in by a young and beautiful translator, Comrade Liu Jiajia. You are the head of a regiment, how could you not know? You are kidding! Zhou Xingze, you have only been married for a few days, but you have already learned to play dumb and make up lies to deceive your wife. As the saying goes, confess and you will be treated leniently, while resist and you will be treated severely."
Ruan Xiaotang felt like she had a grudge the moment he walked in, and she hoped that he would take the initiative to relieve her, and the matter would be over. However, this bastard just wiped his mouth after dinner and wanted to leave, as if nothing had happened, completely ignoring her feelings.
My aunt can tolerate it, but I can’t tolerate it at all.
"Airborne, what do you mean?"
"Don't make jokes, it's not important."
With one leg on the stool and one hand holding a feather duster, he pressed it against Zhou Xingze's forehead.
"Move it away a little. The bowl is out of sight."
"I'll brush it in a minute, tell me quickly."
"Okay, okay, I'll say it."
Zhou Xingze wiped his hands with the apron around his waist.
He took the feather duster, took Ruan Xiaotang's hand, and sat on the stool.
"Comrade Liu Jiajia is the accompanying translator for the technical team sent by the Soviet Union. She was decided by the superiors, and I only learned about this today."
"Really? You and her are colluding to rekindle the old relationship?"
Zhou Xingze felt even more wronged than Dou E. He slammed his hand on the table and denied it righteously, "When speaking, you should have evidence."
"Who are you bullying? How dare you look at me and slam the table? Are you going to hit me again?"
Ruan Xiaotang stood on a stool, looking down at him, holding a feather duster, and yelling at him at the top of her voice.
Being loud means being right?
Zhou Xingze hurriedly held her legs with his hands, fearing that she would become too excited and fall again, which would make him even more guilty.
"Be obedient, come down first and let's talk."
Zhou Xingze smiled ingratiatingly, stood up, tilted his head back, and held her slender waist tightly with both hands.
"I won't go down. Answer my questions honestly, quickly."
Ruan Xiaotang was waiting anxiously, stamping her feet and urging them on.
