Shen Xiaobei was afraid that someone would come over to greet her again, so she quickly finished brushing her teeth, closed the door, and went into the room to wash her face.
Duan Xichuan came back after getting some boiling water, knocked on the door twice gently, and called out "girl" before going in.
"Girl, are you done washing up?"
"Yeah, I'm done. Hey, Xichuan, who is the husband of Rao Junxia?"
"Rao Junxia? I don't think I've heard of this name."
"It's the one who has two daughters and lives next door to Captain Chen's house."
"Oh, it's Captain Yuan's wife. I didn't even know her name. Why, did you see her just now?"
"Yes, she took the initiative to greet me. She also told me a while ago that being with the army has its advantages, but also its disadvantages. She said that I would understand after a while."
"Oh, girl, after hearing what she said, are you feeling a little discouraged about military life?"
"How is that possible? I'll never be discouraged! Hehe, besides, I was so satisfied with your performance last night and this morning, how could I possibly be discouraged!"
"Girl, are you praising me or seducing me? I don't even want to go to the cafeteria for breakfast now. I want to eat you first."
"Huh? No way! It's broad daylight, everyone else is up, how can we do this behind closed doors?"
"Hahaha, girl, look how anxious you are! I'm just kidding. Come on, I'll take you to the cafeteria for breakfast, and then we'll go to the county town to buy things. Tonight, I'll eat you again!"
"Hate it! Don't make this joke in broad daylight anymore!"
"Okay, okay! As my wife ordered, I will only play this joke on you at night from now on."
After the two of them bickered and kissed each other affectionately, Duan Xichuan prepared to take Shen Xiaobei to the cafeteria for breakfast.
As soon as the two walked out of the room and closed the door, they saw the company commander Chen Guohua from next door walking towards the cafeteria with his son and some breakfast.
"Old Chen, you brought back breakfast so early!"
"Yes, Xichuan, sister-in-law, good morning!"
"Good morning, Captain Chen."
Seeing Chen Guohua next door, Shen Xiaobei felt a little embarrassed, because she immediately thought of the noise of the bed last night and her screaming in bed this morning.
So after greeting him politely, I quickly lowered my head.
"Xichuan, you won't be back at the base until tomorrow, right? You can take your sister-in-law to the county town for a good stroll today!"
"Yes, I was just about to finish breakfast with Xiaobei and then take her to the county town to buy some things."
"Oh, that's fine. I won't waste your time then."
After a few pleasantries, Chen Guohua took his son into the room.
Shen Xiaobei was a little puzzled. Why didn't he see his wife? He couldn't help but ask Duan Xichuan in a low voice: "Why didn't I see Captain Chen's wife come out all morning?"
"Maybe his wife doesn't like socializing. It seems like he brings breakfast back from the cafeteria for her every day."
"Ah? So she's difficult to get along with?"
"I don't know much about that. Before I went to Beijing for further training, I lived in the military dormitory. After my marriage application was approved, I moved into the compound a few days before returning home to get married. I don't know much about the military families living here."
"Oh, so why did you write that list for me today?"
"Don't worry about this, girl. Your husband and I have our own way. Anyway, I can write the list for you tonight."
"Well, sorry for the trouble!"
"Silly boy, this is what I should do."
Duan Xichuan wanted to rub Shen Xiaobei's head again, but he immediately remembered that this was in the public area of the compound, and it was not good to make such an intimate gesture, so he immediately controlled himself.
After the two arrived at the cafeteria, Duan Xichuan asked Shen Xiaobei what she wanted to eat, and then asked her to find a seat first while he went to get breakfast alone.
The breakfast in the cafeteria usually consists of porridge, steamed buns, flower rolls, cold noodles, fried noodles and other pastries.
The quantity is limited, if you come late, some may be gone.
Duan Xichuan made two bowls of porridge and took two servings of cold noodles. Shen Xiaobei couldn't finish one serving of noodles, and felt sorry for Duan Xichuan. He was afraid that Duan Xichuan was too big and wouldn't be full with one serving of noodles, so he took some of his own and gave it to him.
After eating, Duan Xichuan went to the logistics office area to write an application, took the car keys to borrow the car, and asked Shen Xiaobei to wait in the yard for a while.
Shen Xiaobei waited under a tree for a while, and then saw Duan Xichuan driving a military green jeep out of the parking area in the compound.
"Girl, get in the car!"
Seeing Duan Xichuan waving at her, Shen Xiaobei immediately trotted over excitedly.
This was the first time she saw Duan Xichuan driving. This man looked so handsome when driving.
After Shen Xiaobei sat in the passenger seat, Duan Xichuan squeezed her hand lovingly, then drove the car out of the compound in a good mood.
As soon as the car drove out of the compound, Shen Xiaobei suddenly felt less tense.
Staying in the compound, with so many soldiers and their families coming and going, she really couldn't completely relax.
"Xichuan, can you drive this car often?"
"Well, I can drive it out if necessary. But not often, because other people sometimes need to apply for a car, and I don't have time to go out often."
"Oh, it's really nice to be able to drive out once in a while. It's so much more convenient! If we didn't have a car, would we have to ride a bicycle to go to the county town?"
"Yeah, that's probably it. We can also walk there."
"Walking? How long will that take?"
"Walk faster, and if there's no sandstorm, it'll probably take about two hours."
