Volume 1 Chapter 182 Show Your Ability
Sheng Wanyan translated quickly, and Gu Tingxiao tidied up the messy papers for her.
Maodou was lying on the pavilion to rest, the woman was writing with her head down, the man was handing her a glass of water from time to time, and the dog was lying beside her. The scene was very warm.
Sheng Wanyan translated for more than two hours and her hands were sore, so she put down her pen and stretched.
Seeing that she was tired, Gu Tingxiao massaged her arms so that she could relax.
"Wife, take a rest."
“I want to send it out quickly.”
As a translator, Sheng Wanyan is more aware of the importance of this book on firearms.
Although she is not a professional in this area, she still understands some things.
Firearms are one of the most important weapons for a country.
It’s a soldier’s life!
So she didn't want to waste time and had to send it to Kyoto as soon as possible.
Seeing how serious she was, Gu Tingxiao didn't try to dissuade her. He cut one of the two apples she brought back and put it on the table.
Sheng Wanyan ate and wrote at the same time. Gu Tingxiao went to prepare dinner. Grandpa Sheng and grandma Sheng came over after a while.
Gu Tingxiao helped her put the translation materials into the room, and Sheng Wanyan went to open the door.
"Grandma, come in quickly."
Sheng Wanyan took them to sit under the pavilion and invited them to eat some fruit.
"Why did you build a pavilion here?"
Grandma Sheng found it curious and looked around her backyard. Seeing that she had planned it very well, she felt more at ease.
“You have a nice kitchen.”
"Grandma, how did you sleep last night?"
Sheng Wanyan made them two cups of malted milk, brought them out and sat down to chat.
"It's fine. I was tired from the car ride and fell asleep as soon as I lay down."
"By the way, your brother said he wanted to replace the tube building with a courtyard. I saw no one going in or out across from you today."
Grandma Sheng also wants to be closer to her granddaughter, so that when Xiao Gu is out on a mission, she can take care of her granddaughter.
"There's no one across from us, the layout is the same as ours."
When Grandma Sheng heard this, she became interested. Such a nice yard must be taken over immediately!
"really?"
Not only was Grandma Sheng moved, even Grandpa Sheng couldn't help but look up at her.
"Really? Captain Fang and his family used to live across the street, but later they moved to a tube-shaped building."
"Grandma, the snow here is very thick in winter, up to a person's waist. There is a kang and a cellar in the yard."
When Grandma Sheng heard this, she couldn't help but think that the winter here was so much colder than in Chengdu, so she must live in the yard.
How can we do without a kang?
"Okay, I'll go back and discuss it with your brother later."
"Xiaoyue is pregnant, so she can't live in the tube building in the winter."
"Your brother is going on a mission tomorrow, is Xiao Gu the same?"
Sheng Wanyan nodded. They were from the same unit and the same regiment, so they would definitely go on the mission together.
"Hey! Come to my house and have dinner with us then. Don't cook by yourself at home."
"Otherwise, it would be boring just for the two of us and Xiaoyue."
Sheng Wanyan did not refuse. Her grandparents had just arrived at the family compound and were unfamiliar with the place, and she was worried about them both.
It's a good opportunity to take the two old people out to find their way around.
"good."
Grandpa Sheng and grandma Sheng were still thinking about the small courtyard, so they ate two apples, drank the malted milk, and went back.
Sheng Wanyan gave them 10 eggs to take back, but Grandma Sheng refused to accept them. After all, her granddaughter was married, and she couldn't let Xiao Gu think that she only had her parents' home in her heart.
"Grandma, take it."
"My sister-in-law is still pregnant, and the troops won't be able to go to the city until next Monday."
There aren’t many things in Sheng Wanze’s house right now, just the smoked meat and pheasant he brought from home.
"And there are some sour wild fruits I just picked."
"I won't eat it. My teeth are in bad condition."
When Grandma Sheng heard that it was sour, her expression changed. She was old and couldn't stand the sour taste.
"Give it to my sister-in-law. Wild grapes are nutritious. Isn't she pregnant?"
Grandma Sheng thought about it and realized that Pan Yue liked to eat sour food after she became pregnant, so she took some of each back for Pan Yue to try.
If she doesn’t like to eat it, she will use it to cook. Anyway, it’s nutritious, so she has nothing to worry about.
Sheng Wanyan took a basket to put the food in and put a can of malted milk in it.
"Girl, why are you giving me such an expensive thing?"
"Your brother's house has everything!"
When Grandma Sheng saw this, her blood pressure rose instantly. This silly girl had just gotten married, so why was she trying so hard to bring things back to her parents' home?
"Grandma, this is what I gave to Ting Xiao to show my filial piety to you and Grandpa."
"What happens at my brother's house is my brother's business, and what I give you is my business."
When Grandma Sheng heard her words, she was both angry and moved. Which granddaughter could be as filial as hers?
"Grandpa, grandma, take it."
Gu Tingxiao took the basket from Sheng Wanyan and sent the two old people back to the tube building.
Since Gu Tingxiao had spoken, the two old men would naturally not refuse without knowing what was good for them.
Sheng Wanyan went to cook dinner. Gu Tingxiao would be on a mission tomorrow, so she planned to cook something delicious.
There are still 5 eggs at home, so I can make an omelet, and I can also fry the pheasant that Sheng Mu gave me.
Have some braised eggplant and have rice as the staple food. Two pieces of meat and one vegetable is already quite rich for two people.
After dinner, Sheng Wanyan was making hemostatic medicine in the yard. She had no tools to grind the medicine, so she could only do it on the stones in the backyard, grinding a little at a time.
Grind all the herbs into powder and prepare according to the gram amount.
Gu Tingxiao didn't understand what his wife was doing. Seeing her busying around in the backyard, he felt a little warm in his heart.
I knew it was because of me. After all, at this time of the day, my wife would have gone to bed.
Sheng Wanyan worked until ten o'clock in the evening, wrapped the powder in paper and gave it to Gu Tingxiao.
Gu Tingxiao looked at the wrapped medicine powder in his hand and raised his eyebrows.
"This is?"
"Hemostatic medicine."
"What?"
Gu Tingxiao looked at her in disbelief. His wife had been busy all night, actually making medicine? ? ?
"This... Wife, you..."
Gu Tingxiao didn't know what to ask, so he could only stare at her.
"I figured it out by myself after reading a book. I don't know how effective it is. I'll feel more at ease if you use it for self-defense."
Gu Tingxiao nodded when he heard this. Although he didn't know the efficacy of the medicine, the fact that his wife could make medicine by herself was enough to surprise him for a long time.
His wife gave him so many surprises today. It seemed that her mind was full of strange ideas.
And all these ideas have been realized one by one.
Seeing that he hadn't come back to his senses, Sheng Wanyan gave him a light kick and said, "You're sleepy."
Gu Tingxiao didn't think about it anymore. He put the medicine on the table, took off his shoes, got on the kang and hugged her.
No matter what his wife is like, she is still his wife, the person he will protect with his life for the rest of his life.
The two of them sat in silence the entire night, but their hearts were filled with peace.
She did this this time with an element of gambling, betting on Gu Tingxiao's trust in her and his love for her.
She couldn't hide her strength forever, she also wanted to shine.
Fortunately, she bet on the right person.
