Chapter 69: Many people envy me
Shen Yuzhu raised an eyebrow, looked the newcomer up and down, and smiled even more sweetly, "Oh, hello comrade, I'm Zhou Congsheng's fiancée. I've come to see him today. Who are you, and what brings you here?"
The visitor was surprised for a moment, then scratched his head sheepishly.
"I, I'm Guan Yiting from the cultural troupe. I'm sorry, I was a little rude just now. I thought someone had just barged into Captain Zhou's room. After all, this is a military unit, and everyone has to be checked before entering and leaving."
"It's alright, ignorance is no excuse. He wasn't here, but if you need to see him urgently, you can come in and wait."
Guan Yiting quickly waved her hand and said, "No need, no need, sister. This is the scarf I borrowed from Captain Zhou during the last performance. I was so grateful for his help last time, otherwise I would have frozen to death. Sister, you are so lucky to have such a considerate fiancé as Captain Zhou. I am so envious."
"Yes, indeed, many people envy me."
Guan Yiting: "......"
Guan Yiting was all smiles from beginning to end. Even when Shen Yuzhu's words made her a little embarrassed, she still managed to force a smile, exchanged a few more pleasantries, and then left decisively. But as soon as she turned her head, the smile on her face vanished completely.
Shen Yuzhu watched her retreating figure, then looked at the scarf in her hand, scoffed, turned around, and closed the door.
As dusk fell, Guan Yiting waited outside. Soon after, Shen Yuzhu closed Zhou Congsheng's door and came out of the room, looking somewhat dejected.
Taking in Shen Yuzhu's appearance, Guan Yiting raised an eyebrow smugly and turned to leave.
Zhao Yue arrived at this moment. When she saw that Shen Yuzhu's expression was not right, her heart skipped a beat.
"Sister-in-law, what's wrong? Are you leaving? My brother hasn't come back yet!"
"Xiaoyue, I have to go. I only took a day off and didn't even tell my sister I was going to stay overnight. It's getting dark, and I can't wait any longer, so I'm going back first. When you see Zhou Congsheng, tell him to come find me. I have something for him."
Before Zhao Yue could say anything more, Shen Yuzhu pushed her bicycle and left.
Anyone else would have been furious, but Zhao Yue is different. She's the kind of person who gets to the bottom of things, and besides, she genuinely likes Shen Yuzhu, so Zhou Congsheng wasn't there today.
She was convinced that she was the one who could take good care of Shen Yuzhu and make her have a pleasant day in the army. As the host, she couldn't accept that she not only failed to make her guest happy but also left with a long face.
He caught up with her in a few steps and grabbed the back seat of Shen Yuzhu's car.
"Sister-in-law, what's wrong? What's wrong with you? You look like something's wrong. Is it because my brother didn't do his housework properly and it smelled bad? Or did you not eat enough at noon? Or did someone upset you? Tell me, and I'll definitely get revenge for you. Sister-in-law, please explain yourself clearly, or I won't know how to explain it to my brother."
"I'm fine. I ate well and slept well today. Thank you so much, Xiaoyue. I'll be going now. Can you let go of me?"
"No, no, I won't let go. I won't let go until you explain it to me clearly."
Shen Yuzhu: "......."
Why are you so stubborn, kid?!
"Alright, I'll tell you then, Xiaoyue. Your sister-in-law is asking you, do girls often come and knock on your brother's dorm room door?"
Um? ? ?
"Honestly, my brother has that icy face, not many people with any sense would respect him. Really, besides, he's a regimental-level officer. Even though he's temporarily the team leader here, his office and dormitory aren't places that just anyone can go!"
Having said all that, Zhao Yue understood perfectly. She gritted her teeth and suddenly said to Shen Yuzhu, "Sister-in-law, you go first. I won't stop you. When my brother comes back, I'll have him come find you!"
Shen Yuzhu nodded to him before pushing her bicycle out the door.
Zhao Yue wasn't stupid. After hearing just a few words from Shen Yuzhu, she already knew most of the story. She turned around and went back to her dormitory, then pulled Mu Qing aside and started whispering to her.
"Good heavens! My sister-in-law finally made it here, and some scoundrel went to my brother's dorm and knocked on the door. He said some shameless things to my sister-in-law, and she left in a huff."
"What? What did you say? There are shameless people like this in our team?"
Mu Qing received a delicious bowl of rice sauce from Shen Yuzhu today, which gave her so much energy that she did everything she could all afternoon. She even washed clothes that had been sitting in the closet for several days. These days, if anyone says anything bad about Shen Yuzhu, it's practically like stepping on her tail.
Bai Chunyang, who was reading a book on the bed next to him, chuckled.
"Getting into Captain Zhou's dormitory won't be easy. By using the process of elimination, we'll soon find out who it is."
The three people exchanged a glance, and Mu Qing jumped up immediately. "Goodness, could it be that brat from Company Commander Guan's family?"
No way?
Zhao Yue slapped the bed, then turned and went to another dormitory.
Where did she go?
"He's gone to seek justice!"
Mu Qing gave Bai Chunyang a thumbs up, and the latter thought for a moment before asking, "I heard that Captain Zhou's fiancée is an educated youth who went to the countryside. Which production team is she from?"
"It's the Xiangyang Production Team of Yangjiao Commune in Ningyang County."
"What? Where did you say?"
After Shen Yuzhu left the army, she saw several military vehicles in front of her. She didn't stop and pedaled hard on her bicycle. Song Biao sneezed in one of the vehicles and turned around to see a familiar figure.
"Sister-in-law, Captain, Captain, that woman who just passed by looks like you, sister-in-law."
Zhou Congsheng's eyes lit up, and he turned around abruptly to open the window. However, the car was driving fast, and with mud flying everywhere, he could no longer see anyone on the road. He panicked and looked around frantically for a while.
Song Biao scratched his head. "Captain, you, you shouldn't be like this. Maybe I'm seeing things. It's so cold and so late. Your wife definitely wouldn't be here, right?"
Zhou Congsheng felt uneasy and glanced back through the car window a couple more times, giving a perfunctory "hmm" twice. Song Biao tilted his head and lightly patted his mouth, blaming himself for speaking so quickly.
When Shen Yuzhu returned to Xiangyang Production Team, it was already completely dark. Fortunately, she had told her sister before she left, otherwise she would still be waiting foolishly at the village entrance with her child.
After returning the bicycle to the Lü family, I headed towards the courtyard. When I reached the intersection, a person suddenly jumped out. The person was carrying a basket full of wild vegetables and mushrooms, and he was also holding a bundle of firewood in his arms.
“You’ve just come back, Shen Zhiqing. Hurry up and go home. It’s so cold outside. It’s not safe for a woman like you to be out alone.”
Yu Xiaolin's caring and gentle words would make most people think he was kind, but only Shen Yuzhu knew how vicious he was.
"Are you out of your mind? Jumping out like that, you scare people half to death, you know? Mind your own business. Are those two holes under your eyebrows just for decoration? Can't you see someone is walking?"
