Chapter 58: Clown
The girl in front of her looked to be about eighteen years old. She just thought that the other party was a relative of Zhang Hongmei who came to the army to find a rich husband.
It was no wonder that Zhu Yanqiu had made a mistake. Lin Yunxi was wearing a white linen vintage windbreaker today, with the collar and cuffs embroidered with tiny floral patterns with silk thread.
The unique waist-tightening design makes the already slender waist even more slender and less than one hand can hold.
She wore a pair of black suit trousers, a pair of small leather shoes, and her hair was tied loosely behind her head.
She walks lightly and has a graceful demeanor.
Lin Yunxi looked at the woman with a hypocritical smile and shook her head, "No need."
Zhu Yanqiu didn't give up yet, she continued to introduce.
"Don't rush to say no. I have a good candidate here. He is the leader now."
When Zhang Hongmei heard this, her face changed drastically and she was about to speak immediately, but was stopped by Lin Yunxi.
Look at Sister Hongmei's expression and the flattery of the people around her just now.
She knew without a second thought that this person must be the lover of the third battalion commander who spread rumors everywhere.
"Captain Rensun's family is well-off. There is only an old lady and five children in the family. You can directly manage the household if you marry him."
"Every day I just need to cook, take care of the elderly and children, and then wait to enjoy my retirement." Zhu Yanqiu said confidently.
Recently, the head of a regiment was transferred and the deputy head was promoted to head, so the original deputy head position became vacant.
Everyone was eyeing the opportunity with eager eyes, including Zhu Yanqiu and his wife.
She also tried to practice wives' diplomacy, but the wives of the leaders either accepted the gifts or pretended not to understand.
Either they reject it outright, or they have made no progress these days and the time for the appointment is getting closer.
If this could be accomplished, Captain Sun would have to speak well of her man in front of her superiors.
When her husband is promoted to deputy regiment commander, she will be the wife of the regiment commander. Let's see whether those who laugh at her behind her back dare to dislike her and shut her out.
After hearing those shameless words, Zhang Hongmei couldn't bear it anymore and immediately retorted.
"Since Captain Sun is so good, why don't you introduce your sister to him?"
"From what I understand, your sister is now nineteen years old."
That Captain Sun is just a mama's boy. He is in his forties and spends all day long saying, "My mother says, my mother says."
His mother is mean and harsh, and she likes to bully her daughter-in-law all the time.
The five children are not worry-free either. To say they are naughty kids is a compliment.
Zhu Yanqiu was certain that the woman in front of her did not understand the situation and still tried to make excuses.
But Lin Yunxi didn't give her a chance. She smiled and said, "Sorry, I'm already married. My lover is Gu Zheng."
In an instant, Zhu Yanqiu's face turned very ugly, and she said angrily.
"Why didn't you say it earlier? You're wasting my breath."
She never expected that the country bumpkin she had been talking about would actually be so handsome and have such good taste in clothes. You couldn't tell at all that he was from the country.
And I was like a clown, jumping up and down in front of it, looking extremely ugly.
Lin Yunxi looked at her intently and said, "Then why don't you think it's a waste of words when you gossip about others behind their backs?"
The wives of the soldiers not far away stopped chatting and pricked up their ears, paying attention to the movements here.
Zhu Yanqiu felt a little guilty, but still said stubbornly: "I don't know what you are talking about."
"Really? I wonder who are the people with distorted values and flawed personalities who like to slander and defame others behind their backs."
"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
Seeing the teasing looks from the crowd, Zhu Yanqiu couldn't stay any longer. She hurriedly said something and left dejectedly with her two followers.
Without the annoying people around, the air around felt a lot fresher. Zhang Hongmei excitedly took Lin Yunxi to meet a lot of military wives.
After this trip, the rumors in the family compound came to an abrupt end. Everyone could see that Captain Gu’s lover was not someone to be trifled with.
Besides, she is so beautiful, even if she can't do anything, it would be great to marry her and keep her at home as a "worship".
Since this battle, Lin Yunxi's image of being beautiful, generous and approachable has spread.
In the afternoon, while Yanyan was taking a nap, Lin Yunxi divided the kelp, abalone, sea cucumber and other dried goods collected yesterday into two equal portions.
He also picked some apples, pomegranates, dragon fruits and oranges that were still covered with dew from the space, packed them together, and packed two large full bags.
These fruits are relatively common fruits in Province Z, but the ones she took out are of very high quality, large in size and good in appearance.
In addition, this is also a long-lasting variety carefully selected by Lin Yunxi. In addition, it is grown in a modified space and can be stored at room temperature for half a month to a month.
It takes about a week to transport the fruit back to my hometown from Province Z, which ensures that the fruit is still fresh when the package is delivered to my family.
In addition, Lin Yunxi put a stack of bills in the interlayer of the package, with the most of them being meat bills.
The last time she left, Lin Yunxi only left money. Her modern thinking made her forget to leave the ticket.
These tickets were obtained from Jiang Houxiong during the second transaction. They are valid nationwide and have no time limit.
In the countryside, if you want to eat meat, you have to exchange it for meat tickets from others, or you have to wait until the New Year when the village slaughters pigs, which is very difficult.
The elders on both sides treated her with all their heart and took good care of her, making Lin Yunxi, an orphan, feel the warmth and love of family.
Naturally, she would repay his sincerity with sincerity and be filial to him.
After packing the packages, Lin Yunxi began to write letters to her parents-in-law and her parents.
In the letter, she introduced the accommodation environment here and how the people around her were easy to get along with.
It also wrote that Yanyan has made friends here and is extremely happy every day.
She told the elderly on both sides not to worry, to take care of their health at home, and not to be reluctant to eat or use the fruits, dried goods and receipts she sent home.
Besides, Gu Zheng hasn’t gone on vacation yet, so the photos can’t be sent back until next month.
Finally, Lin Yunxi specifically instructed in the letter that Jiahao should study hard at home.
She had already prepared the room and was waiting for him to come over and visit during the summer vacation.
In case the elders on both sides would not be able to collect the dry goods, Lin Yunxi specially wrote two full pages of simple recipes that were easy to make and delicious.
The post office was just outside the staff quarters, and it took her less than half an hour to send all the things out.
After returning home, Lin Yunxi began to prepare dinner.
The seafood brought back yesterday has not been cleaned up yet and is being placed in a wooden barrel in the kitchen to spit out the sand. There are shrimps, clams, and clams.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Yunxi took out a native chicken, two pig's trotters, and a handful of mushrooms from the space.
I placed the sea cucumbers and abalone in the space the night before and soaked them in spiritual spring water, planning to cook a pot of simple version of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall for dinner in the evening.
