Chapter 27



"Hey, I'm here!"

Lin Wanchun responded and hurried out of the kitchen.

As soon as she went out, she saw a young female journalist holding a bunch of vegetables in her hand and walking towards her with a smile.

"I'm from Shen Xuewen's house. My name is Ji Hualan. I just heard from him that you guys are back, so I came to see you."

"Oh, sister-in-law. I was thinking of visiting you later, but I didn't expect you to come. Come in and sit down."

Lin Wanchun quickly called people in.

"Hey, let's stop being so polite. You call me Hualan, and I'll call you Wanchun from now on, okay?"

The two men have a good relationship, so Ji Hualan naturally hopes to have a good relationship with Lin Wanchun.

Lin Wanchun also had the same idea, so she followed her words and called out "Hualan".

"Hey, that makes me feel better. These are vegetables I grew myself. I thought you were new here and needed something, so I brought you some."

"How can this be so embarrassing? You've helped me so much."

"What's there to be embarrassed about? It's just a matter of course, just take it, we still have a lot of room to grow for the future."

Hearing her say this, Lin Wanchun stopped refusing.

"Then I won't be polite to you."

"If you're being polite to me, I'll get angry with you!"

The two walked inside while talking.

"By the way, how's your man?"

Although Shen Xuewen had already told her the general situation, since she had come to his house, how could he not greet her?

"It's fine now. The doctor said that he will be able to walk normally again in ten days."

It is said that it takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone, but I don't know whether the medicine she prepared was too effective or Qin Yan's physique was too strong.

These days, he has recovered much faster than before.

This is why he decided to return to the army instead of returning to his hometown.

"That's great. You don't even know that during the first few days when your husband was hospitalized, my husband, Mr. Shen, suffered from insomnia. Sometimes I would wake up in the middle of the night and see him smoking."

Ji Hualan felt pained seeing him like this.

Originally, everyone thought that Qin Yan might not wake up, and even if he woke up, he might become disabled.

Unexpectedly, he not only woke up, but was also able to return to the army.

His recovery was a great thing for the Seventh Battalion, and Ji Hualan was naturally happy from the bottom of her heart.

Hearing these words, Lin Wanxun felt warm inside.

"Thanks to you, I don't even know what would have happened to him otherwise."

He didn't survive in his previous life, and Lin Wanchun couldn't help but feel scared every time she thought about it.

"Maybe he's very capable. If it were someone else, they would have died right away."

But he managed to kill five enemies on his own and rescue Xu Minghui.

Such extreme operations are no longer something that ordinary people can do.

Now that he has not only woken up but also has no sequelae, it is obvious that he will have a bright future.

Lin Wanxun invited her into the kitchen and quickly brought a bench for her to sit on.

But Ji Hualan was not one to sit still, so why would she sit there?

"Don't worry about me. I'm just here to take a look. I have to go back to cook later."

It's already noon, and the two kids at home are crying for food.

Seeing this, Lin Wanchun did not force it anymore.

"I was preparing lunch, but I didn't expect you to bring me some vegetables. I deserve this."

While putting the vegetables into the basket, she smiled at her.

That porcelain-white face was already pretty, and this smile almost dazzled Ji Hualan's eyes.

"Tsk, tsk, how come you have such a pretty face? No wonder my husband Shen said your man calls out your name in his dreams."

Ji Hualan's words made Lin Wanshun blush.

"Hualan, stop teasing me."

What is going on?

"Hey! Don't disbelieve me, everyone in the camp knows it."

Otherwise, with his taciturn personality, how could he let so many people know that he liked a girl?

Lin Wanchun was afraid that she would get more outrageous, so she quickly changed the subject.

"Hualan, you just said that you grew these vegetables yourself? I don't know anything about it. Can I grow these vegetables?"

Seeing that she was shy, Ji Hualan stopped teasing her and said seriously, "I came here to tell you about this. Our family compound has allocated some land to each household. There are two acres of paddy fields for growing rice, and a few acres for growing vegetables. You just arrived, so there is no rush. I will take you to see it tomorrow."

In theory, the army will try its best to arrange a job for the wives of soldiers accompanying the troops.

However, the country's industry is too backward and jobs are extremely scarce.

Their Seventh Battalion could not even fill a few posts in a year.

Don't the remaining family members need to be given something to do?

Moreover, the conditions in this era were difficult. Even those who served in the army had to farm to be self-sufficient, not to mention the wives of soldiers who had no jobs.

"That's great. I'll come find you tomorrow."

Lin Wanshun was more than happy to have someone to help her get familiar with the environment.

After the two chatted and laughed for a while, Ji Hualan lowered her voice and told her about the situation here.

It turns out that the family compound is actually a small society.

Although they are all military wives, they are also divided into different factions.

People from the city look down on those from the countryside, and people from the countryside also think that the city’s military wives are too delicate.

Normally, the two gangs kept to themselves and only pretended to be friendly in front of men.

Ji Hualan is one of the few people who can get along with both sides.

"But you don't have to worry. The army values ​​strength. If you can get along with someone, get along with them. If you can't get along with someone, don't force yourself. If someone really causes trouble, you don't have to swallow your anger. People tend to bully the weak and fear the strong, and it's the same here."

Lin Wanxun knew that she was giving her some advice, and she felt grateful.

When Ji Hualan said goodbye, she took out a piece of peanut candy from an oil paper bag from the cover of the cupboard and stuffed it into her hand.

"I just arrived and I didn't prepare anything. Here are some peanut candies I brought from my hometown. They are fragrant and crunchy. You can take them back and give them to your nephews."

Although peanut candy is not expensive, it is a rare snack in this era of material scarcity and children love it very much.

"No, I just came to give you some vegetables, how can it be worth you giving me so much candy?"

Ji Hualan refused to accept it and pushed it back to her.

"It's not something valuable. If you don't accept it, how can I bother you again next time?"

Lin Wanxun glared at her and stuffed the candy in her hand again.

After some back and forth pushing and pulling, Ji Hualan finally accepted the peanut candy.

"Then I won't be polite with you. I'll come and call you tomorrow morning, so you don't have to make a trip."

Her house is not far from here, just three houses away.

When she was leaving, she stretched out her hand and pointed to her door.

"Okay, I remember. If there's anything else I don't understand, I'll come back to you."

The two hit it off immediately and were already very familiar with each other when they went out.

Just after sending Ji Hualan out of the house and preparing to go back, Lin Wanchun saw a man walking out of the yard next door.

She was wearing a light blue long skirt and her long hair was tied in a high ponytail. She looked sweet and stylish.

"Hey, are you new here?"

The woman squinted her eyes and looked at her.

Lin Wanchun: ...

Is this person Yu Fangfang, the deputy head’s wife that Ji Hualan just mentioned?

"Who are you calling?"

The smile on Lin Wanchun's face had turned cold, and he looked back at her indifferently.

"Of course I'm calling you, is there anyone else here?"

Yu Fangfang rolled her eyes.

"Even a villager like me knows that strangers should address each other as "Zhi". You look so well dressed and you don't look uneducated. How come you didn't learn what manners are when you were in school?"

After all, Lin Wanchun was the actual controller of the group in her previous life. How could she have reached that position without some strength?

At this moment, she put away the smile on her face, but there was an indescribable sense of oppression.

These words made Yu Fangfang blush.

But she was obviously used to being spoiled, and when she realized that she was actually scared by a country woman, her face suddenly turned black.

"You... you dare to say that I am uneducated? Do you know that I am the only one in my family with a college diploma?"
