Chapter 263 Is Your Jade Pendant Better Than Mine?
"It's not even daybreak yet. You're up really early."
Gu Wanxing rubbed his eyes and looked outside where the curtains were still drawn. Through the thin curtains, he could vaguely see the dark sky outside.
But at this time, uniform slogans were heard outside.
Fu Zheng sat down beside the bed and kicked a basket of cucumbers under the window.
"Yes, I have training. I'll have breakfast at 7 o'clock. I'll go get it for you. I'll ask the cafeteria to make some noodles just for you today."
"No, no, no, please don't. I don't want to cause you any trouble. I have everything in my space. Eat whatever you want. But you, are you coming back to eat this morning? If you are, I'll wait for you."
"Then wait for me, I'm leaving first."
Fu Zheng kissed her cheek hurriedly and left in a hurry.
After leaving the house, he reminded her to get up and lock the door.
Gu Wanxing locked the door, entered the space, and went to his soft bed to prepare for another sleep.
Even sleeping outside won’t help.
So she set the alarm for 6:30 and slept for an hour.
When Fu Zheng came back, she had already changed her clothes and was waiting in the house.
The two of them had a hearty breakfast. At this time, Fu Zheng was no longer just guessing. His wife's jade pendant must be better and more powerful than his, otherwise why would she have everything.
"Is your jade pendant better than mine?"
Fu Zheng asked while drinking bone soup and eating steamed buns.
The hopeful look almost materialized.
Hearing this, Gu Wanxing lifted her eyelids and glanced at him, then said nonchalantly, "It's the same, except yours is a little lower level."
Her serious nonsense instantly attracted the man's interest.
Fu Zheng's eyes suddenly lit up: "Then how do I upgrade?"
"I don't know about that either. That's all I know. Just make do with what you have. It's as good as it gets."
Fu Zheng felt a little disappointed, but still nodded with relief.
After dinner, the two discussed going to the teacher's house, and Gu Wanxing took out the half-dried ginseng that she had dried.
I originally planned to give it to my mother-in-law, but I forgot about it. I'll give her a new one when I get back.
Yesterday the man said he didn't want to give it to her, maybe because he didn't see it. He would probably change his mind after seeing it. Thinking of this, she took the ginseng and showed it to Fu Zheng as if to show it off.
"This is the ginseng I was trying to prepare. I didn't know how, so I just left it out in the sun for a few days, and it turned out like this. I'll give it to you, Master. Didn't you say he was indebted to you?"
Gu Wanxing looked at the ginseng in her hand and smiled awkwardly. This was a semi-finished product and had not been dried yet.
You can't always give me a fresh one, that's unrealistic.
Fu Zheng looked at the ginseng as thick as a baby's arm, and shock flashed in his eyes again. It had been sun-dried, and yet it was still so big, how many years must it have taken, at least a thousand years.
He once dug up a hundred-year-old ginseng in the back mountain, but it was only as thick as a thumb.
"Where are you from?"
"Digging on the mountain." Gu Wanxing said nonsense without thinking.
"This is too valuable. Let's keep it. If you think that dress isn't enough, add some cucumbers and tomatoes. This stuff is rare."
Fu Zheng took the ginseng and examined it carefully. He first smelled it and it had a rich herbal scent and a particularly strong bitter taste.
Just by smelling it, he felt refreshed and his eyes and ears were clear.
This thing definitely cannot be given to others. I feel that what my wife says is not reliable and cannot be trusted.
"It's okay. Also, I was planning to give this to our mom, but I forgot. I'll give her some when I get back."
Gu Wanxing took the ginseng directly from the man's hand, found a piece of discarded cloth from the space, and wrapped it up.
I picked up some more cucumbers and tomatoes from the basket.
However, Fu Zheng still refused. This was just like her pills, which would definitely cause a huge uproar if given out.
He solemnly grasped her hand and looked into her eyes: "Wanxing, listen to me, this thing is just like a pill, you must not take it out. Didn't I tell you last night that I have repaid our commander's kindness, so you should keep this."
Gu Wanxing stared at the man for two seconds, then nodded without insisting, "Okay."
In fact, she also wanted to pave the way for the man, but since he didn't let her, then forget it.
"But let's just say these cucumbers were grown in our house, otherwise it's hard to explain."
"Yeah." Fu Zheng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she finally listened. He was really afraid that she wouldn't listen.
This time I didn't meet anyone on the way to the staff quarters.
Gu Wanxing was still a little surprised.
However, when I stepped into the family compound, I met several female comrades. Some of them were still wearing old military uniforms, which were very loose and it was obvious that they had picked up those that the men no longer wore.
Several female comrades stared at Gu Wanxing, and she smiled and nodded at them.
If Fu Zheng didn't introduce her to him, she wouldn't know him.
Obviously, the man had no intention of introducing them, he just took out some candy from his pocket and shared it with them.
If he meets children, he will also give them candy.
The alleys in the family compound are very clean, with an asphalt road in the middle and a row of houses and a cement road on both sides.
After walking two alleys, the two of them turned a corner.
Turn into a wider cement road with smooth and clean drainage ditches on both sides.
Every house has a wooden door.
It looks very much like an alley in the north.
When we arrived at one of the stores, the door was not closed. It was obvious that it was left open on purpose.
"It's right here."
Fu Zheng squeezed his wife's hand, indicating that they had arrived.
"Yeah." Gu Wanxing responded and followed him in.
I ran into an elegant woman in cheongsam walking out of the house. Her hair was combed meticulously, and she had a pair of narrow eyes under her thin willow-shaped eyebrows. She looked like a classical beauty walking out of a painting, weak and graceful.
Her eyebrows and eyes were all smiling:
"Oh, you're here? Come in, come in, haha." Every move of the woman exuded her charming beauty.
It is in stark contrast to the somewhat rough teacher.
"Wanxing, this is my sister-in-law."
"Sister-in-law, this is my wife, Gu Wanxing."
Fu Zheng introduced with a smile.
"Hello, sister-in-law." Gu Wanxing called out implicitly.
She discovered that the cheongsam the person was wearing was also made of Shu brocade, and the short jacket she brought her was also a modified version of Shu brocade, a new Chinese style.
I didn't expect that I would actually cater to his needs.
But she felt that this woman looked familiar. What was going on?
"Okay, okay, come in quickly. It's cold here, right? Even though there's no snow, it's terribly cold near the sea." The woman enthusiastically took Gu Wanxing's hand and walked into the house.
He thought to himself that she was truly a beauty, no wonder the brat was so determined to marry her.
As he walked, Gu Wanxing smelled a special scent on the woman.
The smell is a bit pungent. What is it?
It seems that she sprayed a lot of perfume to cover up the body odor, and the two smells were a bit overpowering when they were neutralized.
It's winter now, so even if you have body odor, it won't come out.
I can only say that my nose is a little special.
She couldn't think of anything else.
After entering the house, Gu Wanxing looked around. On the left side of the door was a three-seater sofa by the window, and against the west wall were two single sofas with a small coffee table in the middle.
There is also a marble-top coffee table in front of the big sofa. It is black marble, and the bottom looks like it was made by someone using an iron frame and painted green.
There is a green refrigerator against the wall on the right side of the door.
It was covered with a white cloth with pink flowers.
Against the wall at the back is a high and low cabinet and an old-style dressing table, the kind with a low surface and a long mirror on one side.
There are many beautiful glasses on the dressing table.
Anyway, it looks quite cozy. The floor is made of red bricks and there is not a single hair on the ground, which shows that he is a clean person.
"Hurry up and sit down. We'll eat here at noon. I cooked a whole table of dishes for nothing last night. Since you guys didn't come, I packed some for Lao Zou as breakfast. Hahaha, drink some water."
The commander's wife's name is Xu Xueqing, but no one usually calls her by her name. They all call her sister-in-law.
But Gu Wanxing was muttering in her heart, and she wanted to ask the man next to her what her name was.
But there is no chance.
