Chapter 5 Do you have time later?
By the time Su Ranran changed her clothes and reluctantly went out, the man chopping wood outside had long disappeared.
The chopped firewood was probably moved back to the kitchen, and the yard had been tidyed up.
Not seeing anyone, Su Ranran couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Just thinking about the scene just now, she still felt a little uncomfortable.
In fact, that small piece of cloth was just the most common triangular style in later generations, but it seemed a bit too thin in this era.
Especially the lace on the edge, which makes people blush.
Su Ranran's skin is too delicate, but most of the fabrics nowadays are a bit rough.
Therefore, all her underwear was bought by her mother from Friendship Store.
However, Su Ranran never wore this dress again after she went to the countryside, and it has been kept in the closet ever since.
Who knew he would get it?
Although everything that should have happened to them had happened, for Su Ranran it was after all several decades later.
She was still a little embarrassed when she suddenly encountered such an embarrassing thing.
Su Ranran patted her face to suppress the heat on her face and walked towards the kitchen.
The fire was still burning on the stove in the kitchen, but the man was nowhere to be found.
On the table was the porridge that Shen He had just brought into the room.
After a pause, Su Ranran walked to the dining table, pulled out a long stool and sat down.
The bench was thin and long, not as comfortable to sit on as the square chairs of later generations, but Su Ranran felt a little nostalgic.
He picked up the porridge on the table and took a sip.
Su Ranran's stomach, which had been growling all morning, was finally soothed.
After drinking the porridge, Su Ranran's brain seemed to have regained its function and began to move.
Only then did she remember that Shen He's vacation was less than a month away.
In her previous life, out of fear, she wished he would return to the army as soon as possible, so how could she be willing to follow the army?
In the end, they ended up getting divorced, so it was even more impossible for them to file a report to the army.
Moreover, the report sent by the army cannot be approved so quickly.
When Su Ranran thought that she would be separated from that person for more than half a year, her heart felt like it was blocked by a ball of cotton.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
As soon as Shen He came back carrying water, he saw her brows furrowed.
Hearing the man's caring words, Su Ranran felt warm in her heart, but she couldn't help but feel a little sad in her eyes.
But being a military wife has never been easy, and she knows she can't be willful.
Suppressing the sadness in her eyes, she shook her head and said, "Do you have time later? I want to go to the county town."
It was clearly just a common conversation between husband and wife, but Shen He subconsciously held his breath.
Meeting those eyes that seemed both shy and anxious, he actually felt a sense of unreality.
Because before today, she would never make any demands on him.
Shen He knew in his heart that she was afraid of him and even hoped that he would return to the army as soon as possible.
But now she actually asked him if he had time to accompany her to the county town?
"When I have time, I'll go for a bike ride." Shen He said, his voice unconsciously lowered a few degrees.
It looked as if he was afraid of scaring her and making her change her mind.
Su Ranran: …
Su Ranran felt a little uncomfortable knowing that she had indeed not treated him like a wife before.
Looking at the apology on her face, Shen Tui felt mixed emotions.
There is joy and sadness.
Although he didn't know why she changed her mind, her change was like a dream to him.
Shen He didn't dare to ask for more.
"What do you want to bring? I'll get it."
In Shen He's heart, Su Ranran is delicate and fragile, a woman who needs his constant care.
It was only because she resisted before that he didn't dare to get too close.
But once she opened her mouth, he couldn't control the urge to take care of her.
Su Ranran: …
What possessed her in her previous life that she would leave the man who doted on her to the core and go back to the city desperately?
Suppressing the bitterness in her eyes again, she shook her head and said, "No need to bring anything. I'll make a phone call."
As soon as these words fell, Shen He's eyes narrowed slightly, and the hand hanging by his side became a little stiff.
Shen He couldn't imagine who else she could call except her mother.
And she was clamoring to return to the city because of a letter from her mother.
Feeling the sudden low pressure from the man, Su Ranran's heart tightened.
Did he misunderstand something?
But just as she was about to explain, she saw Shen He nodded.
"good."
After saying that, he turned and walked towards a shed in the yard.
Looking at his back, Su Ranran had to swallow the explanation that was on the tip of her tongue.
To her, Shen He was the person she had kept in her heart for decades.
But for Shen He, she was still asking for a divorce the day before.
Some knots in your heart cannot be resolved with just a few words.
With a sigh, Su Ranran turned around and went back to the room to get her bag.
This is the only bicycle in the Shen family, and it was bought by Shen He when he got married.
After Shen He returned to the army, the car has been parked in the shed ever since. Su Ranran has never ridden it once, but the strange thing is that no one else in the Shen family rides it either.
Even my second sister-in-law Gao Fangxia, who always loves to take advantage of others, just enjoyed it with her mouth and did not touch the bicycle.
Therefore, the bicycle, which had been parked for a year, was covered with dust.
Shen He found a rag and wiped the house inside and out.
Especially the back seat, which was polished to a bright shine.
Don't be fooled by how carefully he wipes it; it actually doesn't take much time.
The main goal is to be fast and good.
As expected of a member of the army!
In her previous life, Su Ranran missed Shen He too much. In the next few decades, she collected all the information about his past like a possessed person.
I also gained a deep understanding of this disciplined army.
The more she understood, the more she regretted.
At the same time, she became more and more obsessed with the man whom she had never really known before.
"Get in the car."
Shen He had already wiped the bike clean. He easily crossed the crossbar with his long legs and sat on the bike while it was moving straight ahead. He said to her.
It was already past nine o'clock, and the sunlight shone through the courtyard, falling on the tall figure.
The light made the man's well-defined profile look even more resolute and handsome.
It has to be said that Shen He has an excellent figure, tall and straight, with broad shoulders and long legs. Even though his muscular body is hidden under his shirt, one can still feel his extraordinary strength.
Looking at the man's majestic figure in the sunlight, Su Ranran couldn't take her eyes away for a moment.
"Ranran?"
Su Ranran came back to her senses when she heard the man's somewhat doubtful voice.
She couldn't help but blush when she realized that she was so fascinated by the man.
“I am here.”
She instinctively grabbed the strap of the bag and paused before she walked towards him.
On the bicycle, Shen He looked calm and relaxed.
But where no one noticed, the hand hanging by his side was a little tense.
It was not until the slender figure got on the bicycle that Shen He realized that his palms were wet.
Feeling the light weight on the back seat of the car, Shen He's heart felt as if it was brushed by a feather, and it was itchy.
Apart from their wedding day, this was the second time she had ridden his bike.
"Are you seated?"
Holding the handle, Shen He asked calmly.
In the back seat of the car, the temperature on Su Ranran's face had not yet dropped. When she heard the man's voice, she calmed herself down and replied, "Okay."
After saying that, she reached out and gently pulled up the man's clothes.
The next second, the muscles under her fingertips, separated by the thin shirt, instantly became tense, and Su Ranran's heart couldn't help but skip a beat.
