Chapter 028 The Girl in the "Relics"
In the evening, the bathroom that Gu Xiaoxi wanted and the toilet behind the house were completed.
While the cement on the ground was still wet, Lu Jiansen took Gu Dachuan and others to the nearby river to pick up some pebbles and spread them on the floor of the bathroom.
This way, the bathroom will be cleaner and sanitary, and there will be a place for water to drain.
From now on, if he is not at home, the little girl won’t have to go through the trouble of pouring out the bath water!
He also used the extra pebbles to pave a walking path in the yard, so that even when it rains, the house will still be clean and fresh.
Gu Xiaoxi looked very satisfied and gained a deeper understanding of Lu Jiansen.
This man is really thoughtful and considerate!
In the evening, Gu Xiaoxi cooked noodles for everyone. Although it was simple, it tasted delicious when paired with a spoonful of meat sauce made by her mother.
Gu Dachuan ate two large bowls of rice in a row, and then said to his sister, "I have a mission tomorrow, so I won't come over. You stay at home well, lock the door at night, and go to bed early."
Gu Xiaoxi nodded, "Got it, don't worry! Be careful when you go on a mission! Be smart!"
Gu Dachuan smiled and nodded, "Don't worry! I'm not alone. Lu Yan...my brother-in-law is going too, right? With him here, you don't have to worry!"
Lu Jiansen raised his eyebrows slightly, with a warning in his eyes: "At any time, you must be vigilant and abide by the rules. Go all out and never be complacent!"
"Yes!" Gu Dachuan stood at attention and corrected his attitude.
Then, he turned around and ran away!
Gu Xiaoxi blinked her eyes. It seemed that her brother was very afraid of Lu Jiansen!
When the other warriors saw Gu Dachuan running away, they naturally ran away as well.
Lu Jiansen cleaned up the kitchen, prepared some bath water for the little girl, and gave her some instructions.
"The bathroom cannot be used today, so you should take a shower in your room tonight! If I'm not home, make sure to lock the door!"
Gu Xiaoxi nodded, "Got it!"
Fifteen minutes later, Gu Xiaoxi was taking a bath comfortably in the bathtub. Several jets of water were automatically and gently washing her long hair. It was so comfortable.
After taking a shower, she touched her hair with her hands, and a slight breeze quietly helped her hair dry.
This experience made Gu Xiaoxi so happy that she changed her clothes and lay down on the bed with a happy face.
She originally just wanted to lie down for a while, but she fell asleep without realizing it.
What Lu Jiansen saw when he came in was a picture of a beautiful woman with long hair hanging down, a slender waist half exposed, long legs slightly bent, and a pair of white hands hugging the quilt as she fell asleep.
He always knew that the little girl was beautiful, but what he saw before him still made his heart beat fast!
He gently took the little girl's hand and kissed it on his lips.
If he wants to protect her and give her a better life, he has to work harder and be stronger!
In order not to wake up the sleeping girl, he moved gently, poured the bath water, took a bath, and then got into bed quietly.
When he reached out to cover her with the quilt, the annoying little girl suddenly turned over and rolled into his arms.
With the soft jade and warm fragrance in his arms, Lu Jiansen suddenly became distracted.
He endured it, but in the end he couldn't bear to wake her up.
But, he is the one who suffers in the end!
…
The next day, when Gu Xiaoxi woke up, Lu Jiansen was getting ready to go out.
The little girl opened her eyes and was in a state of being half awake. She looked like a lazy little kitten, so cute that it was unfair.
He tried to hold back, but couldn't help it, so he walked over, leaned over and kissed her on the lips.
"It's still early, you should sleep a little longer. I have to go on a mission, so just eat well at home!"
Gu Xiaoxi nodded shyly, "Yes. Then you should be careful!"
"Okay!" Lu Jiansen resisted the urge to hug her and kiss her again, so he closed the door and went out.
Listening to Lu Jiansen's leaving footsteps, Gu Xiaoxi raised her hand and gently stroked her lips, and an indescribable sweetness arose in her heart.
It’s a bit strange, but it makes people miss it!
After coming to her senses, she looked at the watch on the table.
It’s only five o’clock now, it’s really early!
She curled up in her quilt and slept for another twenty minutes before finally getting up.
After she finished washing up and went to the kitchen, she discovered that Lu Jiansen had cooked porridge early in the morning. There were two boiled eggs and a small dish of her favorite shredded pork with pickled mustard greens warming by the pot.
While she felt warm in her heart, she was also very curious where the pickled mustard greens and shredded pork came from at home.
After eating breakfast alone in the kitchen, she stood in the yard and wondered what she could do.
After thinking it over and over again, she finally took a large broom as a cover, and used her garbage cleaning skills to clean up all the garbage outside the courtyard gate and around it.
The garbage and rocks on the roadside were also cleared, and soon the area around her home was extremely clean.
Li Guifen, who got up early, saw Gu Xiaoxi cleaning so hard and walked over with a smile.
"Sister Xiaoxi, you are so diligent! Have you had breakfast?"
Gu Xiaoxi smiled sweetly at her and said, "I have eaten. Has Sister Guifen eaten?"
"I'm getting ready to eat! I'm going to buy some groceries with some sisters-in-law later. Do you want to come with us?"
Gu Xiaoxi nodded, "Sure! But I'm not buying groceries today. I still have some left from yesterday. I plan to send a letter home."
"Okay, when you get to the street, walk east. There's a post office on the east side. I'll call you later."
After the two of them made the agreement, Li Guifen went home to eat, and Gu Xiaoxi also went into the yard with a broom.
Because she had to mail a letter later, she tore a piece of paper from her notebook and wrote another letter to her parents.
At half past seven, Li Guifen came to call her. She just picked up a small bag, locked the door and went out.
There were five or six military wives who went out to buy groceries together. They were chatting idly with each other, and as they chatted, they talked about Captain Xiao's home.
Feng Xia said with disdain: "Captain Xiao usually gave all his monthly allowance to his wife. Ding Lanjing refused to give a penny even though he saw someone die. Later, under the arrangement of the political commissar, he reluctantly gave 100 yuan to Captain Xiao's brother and sister-in-law."
Gu Xiaoxi blinked and asked curiously, "What about the child?"
Feng Xia looked at her with an unfathomable look in her eyes. "You definitely could not have imagined the result. Ding Lanjing gave the child to Captain Xiao's family and didn't want the child anymore."
Gu Xiaoxi clicked her tongue, "The child is not even full-term yet and hasn't been weaned yet, and she is willing to give him up?"
Li Guifen snorted coldly, "Why would she be reluctant to part with her? She has no milk and no children, so it's just right for her to remarry!"
Gu Xiaoxi was speechless. Just as he was sighing, Feng Xia said, "The problem is that later, Captain Xiao's brother went to the regiment and called back. In the end, he said that the Xiao family didn't want the child anymore."
"Ah?" Gu Xiaoxi was really shocked this time.
Another military wife nearby found Gu Xiaoxi's shocked expression funny and couldn't help saying, "Feng Xia is still keeping you in suspense. In the end, Ding Lanjing's sister said she would raise the child."
Gu Xiaoxi: “…”
This time her eyes were really wide open, and she was filled with surprise!
Ding Lanyi is the girl that her brother put in the “relics”!
She didn't know whether her relationship with her brother would have any results, but if some friction did develop and some feelings arose, then this child would really be a time bomb!
She really didn't expect that eating a melon might end up being related to her family.
