Chapter 48 Brush Teeth and Drink Milk
Lu Zhanlin was already very happy that Chu Yue could join the army as per the engagement. There was still a long time to go, so there was no need to rush and scare the girl. He could just be patient for now.
As the saying goes, there is a knife above your head when you are patient.
When Lu Zhanlin took a shower before, he took a cold shower. The water temperature was close to zero degrees in the middle of winter, which suppressed the scorching heat.
Lu Zhanlin could endure it, but the sleeping Chu Yue gradually followed her physiological instincts and moved closer to the hot man.
Chu Yue turned over and was lying flat on her back, facing Lu Zhanlin. Her breathing was light and shallow, and all of it fell on Lu Zhanlin's neck.
It was the same the last time on the train when Chu Yue fell asleep on his shoulder, with the sweet scent of a young girl in her breath.
Then, a hand stretched out sideways.
Then, a foot.
Chu Yue's hands and feet were a little cold. The moment she touched Lu Zhanlin's body, the man trembled. She found the source of warmth and stuck to him tightly. She wanted to lift up Lu Zhanlin's clothes and stick directly to his hard eight-pack abs.
Lu Zhanlin did not push away Chu Yue's hands and feet, but instead held her hands to warm them.
Lu Zhanlin closed his eyes and began the long night.
…
The next day.
Lu Zhanlin woke up at dawn.
When I opened my eyes, they were dark and bright, without any sign of sleepiness. I didn't know if I hadn't slept all night.
He also had to go down the mountain to the boot camp, so he had to leave early.
Lu Zhanlin stood up quietly, using his well-trained skills to avoid making any noise. But just as he put on his military jacket, Chu Yue, who was lying on the bed, turned over and became a little more awake.
Chu Yue was on duty in the emergency room and could receive emergency calls at any time. In order to save the patients, she had to return to the hospital immediately, so she remained alert even when sleeping. It had only been a while since she traveled to the 1970s, and she had not yet changed these habits.
She woke up slightly when Lu Zhanlin moved, but the warm quilt in winter made her too sleepy to open her eyes.
She mumbled, "Are you going out?"
"Well, it's not dawn yet, you should continue sleeping." Lu Zhanlin said after looking at Chu Yue's sleepy face.
Chu Yue was half asleep, still thinking about something, "The candy... the candy is outside, take some and share it with the troops..."
The previous conflict between Lu Yuanbao and the Zhao brothers was caused by wedding candy; Lu Zhanlin had many interpersonal relationships in the army, and he had to do everything he could to maintain good relationships with them.
Lu Zhanlin paused beside the bed and said in a low voice, "Okay, I'll get it. You can go to sleep."
Chu Yue fell asleep again after hearing "Go to sleep" and didn't even know when Lu Zhanlin left the house.
Three hours later.
Chu Yue and Lu Yuanbao stood by the yard, holding a steaming enamel cup in one hand and a toothbrush in the other.
One of the enamel cups has "Labor is the most glorious" written on it, and the other has a red five-pointed star printed on it. They are both sturdy and beautiful.
Chu Yue bought a Double Happiness plastic toothbrush (pictured) at the supply and marketing cooperative yesterday. She didn't buy any iron toothpaste, but she did buy some toothbrush powder. Fifty cents bought a big can.
Lu Yuanbao had never seen a toothbrush or toothpaste before, and he had no idea how to use them. He looked at Chu Yue with his bright eyes.
Chu Yue demonstrated to him. She dipped a clean toothbrush in tooth powder, and white powder appeared on the plastic bristles. Then she took a sip of hot water from the enamel cup. Without swallowing it, she rinsed her mouth and spit out the hot water. After her mouth was moistened, she could put the toothbrush in and start brushing her teeth.
Lu Yuanbao watched it once and then copied Chu Yue's movements exactly.
After brushing my teeth a few times with the toothbrush, foam came out of my mouth and I felt a cool sensation, just like applying cooling oil in my throat.
Lu Yuanbao stopped moving suddenly.
Chu Yue turned to look at him, holding the foam in her mouth and said, "That's right, that's it... Keep brushing, don't stop, brush for at least two minutes... You can spit out the foam, don't swallow it."
Lu Yuanbao opened his eyes wide and did as Chu Yue said. As he brushed his mouth, he gradually got used to the cool feeling in his mouth.
After two minutes, rinse your mouth and spit out water until your mouth is clean.
Chu Yue looked at the corners of Lu Yuanbao's mouth covered with white foam, her eyes smiling, "You did a great job, come in and wash your face."
Lu Yuanbao followed behind Chu Yue, licked his teeth with his tongue, put his hand in front of his mouth, and breathed lightly.
It's cool and refreshing, like mint.
He tiptoed to put the enamel cup and toothbrush on the shelf. Chu Yue covered his face with a steaming hot towel and moved it in circles like wiping glass. After wiping it clean, they could eat now.
Chu Yue didn’t make today’s breakfast.
When she got up, she found two aluminum lunch boxes and two buns kept warm in the stove.
Lu Zhanlin didn't leave any words, but it was clear that he got this breakfast early in the morning. I don't know what method he used, but it was an unusual meat bun.
Chu Yue and Lu Yuanbao each had a meat bun and ate it with relish.
She also took out the milk powder she bought from the supply and marketing cooperative yesterday. There was a red label on the tin can that said "full-fat sweet milk powder" (pictured). There was a little milky yellow powder inside, and you could smell the fragrance as soon as you opened it.
Lu Yuanbao moved his nose and was instantly attracted.
Chu Yue scooped two full spoonfuls with a spoon, put them into a glass, poured in hot water, and stirred it with a chopstick.
The milk powder quickly melted in the hot water, and the hot water gradually turned into a milky white liquid. As it swirled and made a nest, the fragrance became more intense.
Chu Yue put the cup down in front of Lu Yuanbao, "It's a little hot, let it cool down before drinking it."
Lu Yuanbao looked at the milk he had never seen before, then at the cup and then at Chu Yue. "Don't you want to drink it?"
Chu Yue said, "Milk is for children, not adults."
So... this was bought specially for him.
Lu Yuanbao blinked faster and faster, staring at the milk spinning around for a long time. When it was no longer so hot, he carefully held the milk in his hands and took a sip.
So sweet! And a hint of...
Lu Yuanbao couldn't describe what the smell was, he just felt that there was a part of his memory in his body, and he liked this smell very much.
In the past, this smell only existed on her biological mother, but now it seems to be on Chu Yue as well.
Chu Yue finished her breakfast and simply cleared the table, leaving Lu Yuanbao still sipping his milk, which was so sweet that he was reluctant to finish it all at once.
A familiar voice came from outside the house.
"Sister Chu, are you there? I'm coming in." Chen Fengying said loudly as she walked into the room. "You guys are having breakfast. I hope I didn't disturb you."
"Sister Chen, please don't disturb me. I'm done eating. Please take a seat."
While Chu Yue was talking, Lu Yuanbao picked up the cup and gulped down the remaining milk, leaving a circle of white milk around his mouth. He licked it with his tongue and it was still sweet.
Chen Fengying waved her hand and said, "No, no, I'm not here today for anything else. I just want to bring my son here for you to meet."
