Seeing the content above, he couldn't help but frowned and uttered two words: "Trouble!"
In Si Nanzhao's view, women are troublesome creatures. Although he accepted the engagement, he had no intention of marrying Yunbei.
Originally, he was thinking of going to Hai City during his vacation to clarify the engagement with Yunbei and cancel it.
After all, he has no plans to get married now, and Yunbei is young, so it is better to make things clear as soon as possible.
But who would have thought that before he even had a vacation, Yunbei had already come all the way to find him.
But he couldn't ask the other party not to come, which was very annoying.
"Nan Zhao, what's wrong?" The leader saw that Si Nan Zhao looked unhappy after receiving the telegram, and thought that something big had happened, so he couldn't help but ask.
"Chief, it's okay!" Si Nanzhao shook his head and didn't want to spread the matter.
His leaders have been worrying about his marriage in recent years. If they knew that a girl came to see him, they would probably set off firecrackers to celebrate.
Because over the years, no matter which girl his superiors introduced to him, he always rejected her. As a result, he became the most difficult person to find a partner in the army.
Actually, he said, he wasn't that old, only 26. Why was he in such a hurry to find a partner?
Besides, he had no intention of getting married at all. The reason was, of course, that women were too troublesome and involved too much trouble.
All they do all day is gossip about other people's affairs, or compare themselves with others.
Therefore, he felt that it was fine to live alone, without so many worries, and not to waste time on meaningless things like dating.
Seeing that Si Nanzhao didn't want to say anything, the leader didn't ask any further questions.
He knew that Si Nanzhao was unwilling to say it, so it must not be a big deal.
Si Nanzhao took the telegram back to his single dormitory. As a battalion commander, he already met the requirements to accompany the army. If he had a family, he could apply for a small courtyard.
However, that yard is not here, but in the military family compound.
Because he had no partner and didn't want to live with his brothers, he applied for a single dormitory.
Now that Yunbei was coming, he definitely couldn't let her stay in the guesthouse all the time, let alone his single dormitory. So, he had to go to the logistics department to apply for a yard.
In any case, she still belongs to his family until the engagement is dissolved.
Thinking of this, Si Nanzhao put the telegram in the drawer and then went to the logistics department.
Logistics Minister Lao Liu was very surprised to see Si Nanzhao. He smiled and asked, "Captain Si, what brings you here?"
"Old Liu, are there any vacant houses in the family compound?"
"Yes, what's wrong?" Old Liu looked at Si Nanzhao with a puzzled look, thinking: Could it be that he is asking on behalf of his soldiers?
"Take me to see it."
"What do you mean, go and see for yourself? You are not planning to live in the staff quarters, are you?" Old Liu looked at Si Nanzhao in surprise, as if he was looking at something strange.
"Don't ask so many questions. Let's go and take a look at the courtyard first." Si Nanzhao pulled Old Liu towards the family compound. He had to personally choose a courtyard, preferably one far away from other houses to avoid trouble.
As for whether Yunbei would be afraid of living alone at that time, he didn't think too much about it.
"Okay!" Old Liu looked at Si Nanzhao's anxious look and didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he took the registration booklet and went to the family compound.
There happened to be three empty courtyards in the family compound, all with three bedrooms and a living room. The courtyards were not very big, only about 100 square meters.
Si Nanzhao looked around and chose the courtyard at the foot of the mountain. This courtyard was close to the mountain and had convenient access to water. Although there was no well in the courtyard, water could be directly drawn from the mountain, eliminating the need to fetch water from the river.
As for the well for drinking water, it is not too far away and only takes two minutes to walk.
Si Nanzhao was very satisfied with this courtyard and decided to buy it immediately.
Old Liu was now even more curious and asked, "Captain Si, I see you've taken so much trouble to choose a yard. Could it be that your family is coming here?"
It's just that in all his years in the army, Lao Liu had never heard that Si Nanzhao had a family. Otherwise, those leaders wouldn't be vying to introduce Si Nanzhao to someone.
Seeing Old Liu's curious gaze, Si Nanzhao originally wanted to say that a sister from a noble family was coming. But when the words came to his lips, they became: "My fiancée will be coming over soon."
"What, you have a fiancée?" Old Liu widened his eyes in surprise, looking at Si Nanzhao as if he were looking at some kind of scumbag.
Because he had never heard that Si Nanzhao had a fiancée, otherwise his leaders would not be able to introduce him to someone.
"Don't be so surprised, I just found out too, okay?" Old Liu's gaze made Si Nanzhao feel uncomfortable, and he couldn't help but roll his eyes. It was all the fault of the old man at home for not telling him earlier. The moment Yunbei showed up, everyone thought there was something wrong with him.
After all, you already have a fiancée, but you didn't make it clear, causing so many people to introduce him to potential partners.
If someone else had cheated him like this, he would have definitely not let them off. But since the person who cheated him was the old man, he could only endure it.
"From what you said, it seems that this was arranged by your family?"
"Um!"
Si Nanzhao nodded, not intending to say more. Not to mention that he didn't know Yunbei well, even if he did, he wouldn't like to mention family matters in front of outsiders.
After choosing a yard, Si Nanzhao took the time to clean it, and then took some time to bring water down from the mountain, and then asked someone to buy all the things needed for the house.
Yunbei didn't know that after Si Nanzhao received her telegram, he started preparing the yard to make it convenient for her to stay.
At this time, she was still on the train, having traveled thousands of miles to find her husband.
There were many people on the hard seats, and the various smells mixed together, which was not very interesting. Not only that, the car was also a bit messy.
She had just sat down for a short while when she saw a pickpocket trying to steal an old lady's money.
Yunbei saw it and couldn't just sit there and do nothing, so he walked up and pulled the man towards the police station on the train.
At first, the thief didn't take Yunbei seriously because she was a woman. He even warned her not to meddle in other people's business. But when he couldn't break free, he realized that he had hit a wall.
So, he looked at Yunbei with a pleading face and said, "Comrade, comrade, can you please forgive me this time? I have elderly parents and young children to support, and I am the only one who supports them. If I am arrested and imprisoned, they will die, and then you will become a murderer."
"You're quite good at making things up." Yun Bei looked at him sarcastically and said, "Looking at how skilled you are, this shouldn't be your first time, right? Also, are you eighteen years old? You have elderly parents and young children to take care of. Who are you trying to fool?"
