Chapter 23 Chapter 23 Liang Xin, washed clean and lying...
At noon, Chief Lu came back.
Bring back a bottle of Moutai.
Hu Fenglian was surprised: "Where did such good wine come from?"
"It's supplied by the military region. I bought it."
Commander Lu looked very happy. He handed the wine to Hu Fenglian, took off his army green cotton jacket, and looked at Lu Chongfeng, "Boy, let's have a drink together today."
"Are you crazy?"
Hu Fenglian placed it on the dining table. "He has to take two or three doses of Chinese medicine every day and cannot drink alcohol."
Chief Lu smiled and said, "Really? I forgot. Xiao Wei, you have to have a drink with me today."
After the glutinous rice balls are cooked, serve them according to personal taste. Put the marinated chicken into the wok and stir-fry with red pepper, garlic leaves, shallots and ginger. Add soy sauce and simmer until the sauce is reduced. Cut the bacon into thin slices and steam it on the rice. The steamed bacon is as thin as a cicada's wing, crystal clear, exudes a fresh fragrance, and whets your appetite.
Liang Xin took a bite of the black sesame glutinous rice dumpling, and the black sesame seeds immediately rolled from the white and glutinous rice dumpling skin into the spoon, filling her mouth with its mellow fragrance.
Open the bottle cap of Moutai and pour it into the wine glass, the aroma of the wine fills the air.
"Boy, drink some water." Chief Lu picked up the wine glass and said, "I'm going to toast you today."
"What's wrong with you today?" Hu Fenglian looked at Chief Lu in confusion, holding a spoon in her hand, "Why are you so happy?"
Lu Chongfeng picked up the water cup, lowered it to his father's cup, took a small sip, and glanced at Liang Xin who was blowing the glutinous rice balls.
Commander Lu took a sip of Moutai and his face instantly turned red from the spiciness. "This guy got promoted and is now a regimental cadre."
Hu Fenglian was surprised. "Chongfeng hasn't recovered from his illness yet, so why is he going to work? Where has he been promoted? Is he going back to his original unit? That's not right. Shouldn't Chongfeng continue to go back to the military academy to attend classes?"
"This kid." Chief Lu smiled proudly, "The commander-in-chief said personally that if he were not too young, he should be allowed to be a teacher in the military academy."
Lu Chongfeng raised his eyebrows: "The commander-in-chief has better vision than the deputy commander."
Liang Xin glanced at him and continued to eat the dumplings with her head down.
Hu Fenglian was stunned. "Why did Commander Zhao suddenly mention Chong Feng? Didn't you say that what Chong Feng said was nonsense? How did he suddenly get promoted?"
"Don't ask so many questions." Commander Lu handed the glass to the guard who wanted to pour wine.
The guard seemed happier than Commander Lu: "Most soldiers are stuck at the level of battalion rank to deputy regiment rank throughout their lives. It can be said that the hurdle from battalion rank to regiment rank is more difficult than the hurdle from division rank to army rank. Those below battalion rank are grassroots cadres, and those at regiment rank are senior cadres!"
Lu Chongfeng was still looking at Liang Xin out of the corner of his eye and didn't respond.
Commander Lu suddenly patted his son on the shoulder and said, "That's right, you have been promoted from battalion commander to deputy regiment commander. This hurdle almost cost you your life and almost ruined your entire military career. The commander-in-chief specially used the line from Zheng Banqiao's "Bamboo and Rock" to praise your character. Today, I also want to praise you for being worthy of the name Chongfeng!"
Xiao Wei happily added: "Your Commander Chen also said that young cadres like you should be trained as a priority!"
Liang Xin looked at Lu Chongfeng with a smile in her eyes.
Lu Chongfeng's face, which had not responded for a long time, suddenly raised his chin slightly, "Zheng Banqiao also said that bamboo has drooping leaves, and plum has no upward-facing flowers. You are too ostentatious."
Chief Lu immediately laughed out loud, "You kid!"
Hu Fenglian put down the spoon and asked, "Where did it go after all this talk?"
Chief Lu: "Operation Department Staff."
Liang Xin already knew this and was not surprised. She slowly ate the last glutinous rice dumpling, thinking about how to deal with President Liu's exciting activities.
"Operation Department?" Hu Fenglian's eyes were filled with surprise. She was finally happy. "Doesn't that mean we can work in the military compound? We don't have to go to the military academy or return to our original unit?"
"This guy refused." The smile on Chief Lu's face never faded. "Everyone is scrambling to get into the military district headquarters, but this guy was not only promoted to the headquarters, but also to the core operations department of the military district headquarters. However, he refused and wanted to go to the troops and take on the most stressful burden. That's why the commander-in-chief and Lao Chen from their army are so optimistic about him."
Liang Xin raised her head and asked, "Go to the troops?"
Commander Lu: "Yes, transferred to the 11th Division of the 16th Army as the head of the Division Training Section."
"Generally speaking, the chiefs of the Operations and Training Section are in the reserve team for full regimental cadres." Xiao Wei said with a smile: "With Chongfeng's strength and talent, he will be able to reach the position of full regimental cadre in a few years."
There was a bit of sweet black sesame on Liang Xin's lips and her expression was dull.
Lu Chongfeng's breathing became rapid unconsciously.
He really looked very shocked.
"Liang Xin, don't worry." Hu Fenglian also noticed, "The 11th Division of the 16th Army is in the wilderness. There is nothing there. You can stay at home. If you want to farm and raise pigs, mom will go to the countryside with you. You don't have to follow the charge and suffer."
"Mom, what nonsense are you talking about? What about desolate mountains and wilderness?" Lu Chongfeng explained quickly, "The entire 11th Division has moved to Jiangkou and has a new base."
"Jiangkou?" Hu Fenglian curled her lips. "Jiangkou is even colder. There's the Yangtze River and the East China Sea. Liang Xin won't go there to suffer that."
Lu Chongfeng looked at Liang Xin who was silent, "I didn't plan to let her go with me."
The Yangtze River, the East China Sea, and farming and raising pigs.
There is also Chairman Liu’s encouragement behind him.
She was willing to go to Jiangkou to suffer.
But seeing Lu Chongfeng's unhappy look.
"...Dad, can I have a drink with you?"
The whole table was shocked.
Chief Lu: "Drink, Maotai?"
Liang Xin stood up and took a white porcelain wine cup and handed it to Xiao Wei's bottle, "Chong Feng can't drink it, I'll drink with you."
Lu Chongfeng's chopsticks froze in mid-air, "This is white wine."
Liang Xin looked at Xiao Wei: "Brother Wei, please pour the wine."
Xiao Wei tilted the bottle, filled the cup, and quickly put his hand away.
Liang Xin held the wine glass in both hands and toasted to Chief Lu. Without saying a word, she tilted her head back and took a big sip. After swallowing it, her face did not turn red and she did not gasp for breath.
“Pah.”
One of Lu Chongfeng's chopsticks fell onto the table.
Hu Fenglian, Chief Lu, and Xiao Wei all stared at Liang Xin blankly.
"Okay." Chief Lu was happier than when he first came in. "I have a drinking companion from now on."
"You are so beautiful!"
Hu Fenglian snatched the Maotai and put it away. "I just made up my mind to quit drinking, and the relationship in this family has finally calmed down. If people knew that you started drinking again, the people who came to your house every day to deliver wine to you would annoy me to death. Besides, how old are you? Do you think your body is still the same as before?"
Commander Lu majestically picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and was reluctant to drink it all.
Lu Chongfeng looked at Liang Xin carefully, not missing a single change in her expression. "How come you drank half a cup of 53-degree Moutai, but it was like drinking 0-degree water, with no reaction at all?"
Liang Xin raised her eyelids and glanced at him indifferently.
His eyes moved, as clear as water, and Lu Chongfeng paused for breath.
"Liang Xin, eat some food quickly."
Hu Fenglian picked up a piece of braised salted chicken and put it in Liang Xin's bowl. "Chongfeng, the person you should thank most for your promotion is mom, because mom found you such a good daughter-in-law. Not only did she stabilize your condition, but she also put you first in everything and thought about you. Now she even drinks the liquor for you. I warn you, I only recognize Liang Xin as my daughter-in-law. Don't think that just because you received a few compliments from the military commander and got a promotion, you can ignore Liang Xin."
Lu Chongfeng adjusted his breathing.
It’s not that he doesn’t take Liang Xin seriously.
It was obvious that Liang Xin didn't take him seriously.
In the afternoon, Lu Chongfeng walked into the room holding Liang Xin horizontally.
Lu Chongfeng gently put Liang Xin, who was sleeping unconscious with rosy cheeks, on the bed, bent down to untie the laces of her cotton shoes, then moved her to the pillow and covered her with a quilt.
Just as he was about to remove the hands from his neck, Liang Xin's hands suddenly tightened, Lu Chongfeng's arms softened, and he leaned over and fell on her.
The soft touch on his chest made Lu Chongfeng's breathing suddenly become heavy.
One breath after another sprayed on Liang Xin's neck.
Liang Xin moved her face unconsciously.
The scent of jasmine and wine slowly invaded his nose. Lu Chongfeng felt dizzy as if he was drunk. He tilted his head and looked at the peach blossom face close at hand. The long eyelashes cast a shadow on the cheek. The nose bridge was slightly straight and upturned. The cherry lips he had dreamed of countless times were now plump and rosy from the wine. They were naturally pouting because of deep sleep, as if waiting...
Lu Chongfeng took a deep breath, and with great willpower, he propped himself up from Liang Xin's chest, lifted the quilt, tucked it tightly under her chin, and stared at her face for a while.
Thinking about these days, she took advantage of him to take medicine, forgot to take her underwear with her when taking a bath, and no longer hid her little white clothes under her cotton sweater when hanging clothes...
He got up and went to the room to follow the weekly training schedule. She lay on the bed, leaning sideways with her face propped up. Her lazy eyes, just waking up, lingered on his body, slowly looking up and down...
She was not so obedient when she slept at night. He held her hand, and when she fell asleep, she would tickle his palm...
"Be careful."
Lu Zewei stretched out his hand and pointed at Liang Xin's pink nose. "I am a man."
After a while, a voice rang out in the room again:
"A very capable man."
Liang Xin opened her eyes. It was already dark outside. She turned around and saw Lu Chongfeng, neatly dressed in military uniform, sitting at his desk under a lamp, writing.
I stood up slowly, feeling dizzy all of a sudden, and it felt like the alcohol had not worn off at all.
Actually fell asleep.
Fortunately, it took her a long time to sober up.
"What are you doing?"
When Lu Chongfeng heard the sound, his back suddenly tensed up. He hurriedly picked up a book and covered his face with it, but he almost hit the ink bottle. He reached out to stop it, and a few drops of ink spilled onto the book. He picked up a blue plaid handkerchief beside him to wipe it. After a moment of chaos, he turned back awkwardly, "Are you awake? Are you feeling better?"
Liang Xin lay on her side on his pillow. With the light from the glass-shaded kerosene lamp, she saw through the gap between his arms that there was a pink-covered book under a black cover. Her eyes slowly moved up to his face.
The big hand that was pressing down on the book was sweating, and soon fingerprints were left on the black cover due to excessive force.
Lu Chongfeng could hear his own breathing and heartbeat, "Would you like some water?"
"orange."
Lu Chongfeng looked up at the oranges in the fruit bowl, stood up along the edge of the desk, silently took another piece of newspaper and pressed it on the black book cover, then handed an orange to the bedside.
Liang Xin took his pillow and placed it behind him as a pillow, then took the orange, peeled it slowly, broke off the first slice and handed it over.
As usual.
The posture of feeding a dog in Lu Chongfeng's eyes.
Lu Chongfeng also lowered his head and took it away as usual.
This time, she didn't let go.
Lu Chongfeng held half an orange peel in his mouth, and looked up at her with his long eyelashes fluttering.
The orange had been bitten halfway and would not fall off, so Liang Xin released her index finger, pressed on his upper lip, and slowly traced the perfect curve.
Lu Chongfeng supported himself on the bed with his arms stretched out like a bow, his Adam's apple rolling. He swallowed the faint orange scent and lay motionless, allowing Liang Xin to copy him.
Liang Xin used her thumb to push the orange segment into the gap between his lips. When the orange disappeared between his lips, she moved her index finger from the gap between his upper lip to the tip of his nose and pressed lightly. Lu Chongfeng's lips, which had just been closed a second ago, opened again, revealing the complete orange segment.
"Why don't you eat?"
Liang Xin's fingertips slid across the top of his lips and landed on his lower lip, stroking the almost invisible lip lines. "Is the orange sweet or sour?"
So you wanted him to help you taste it?
Lu Chongfeng bit the orange and a drop of orange juice splashed on Liang Xin's fingertips. He subconsciously sucked on her index finger and took the drop of orange juice into his mouth, "Sweet, not sour."
After the finger was sucked, a tingling sensation spread from the arm to the heart.
Liang Xin finally raised her eyes and met his dark eyes.
Lu Chongfeng chewed the orange and said, "It's really sweet."
Liang Xin: “….”
I handed the orange to him, threw back the quilt, got out of bed, took off my cotton jacket, opened the door of the closet, took out some clean clothes and a dried white bath towel, and walked out of the room.
Lu Chongfeng stood up and said, "Are you hungry? I'll go downstairs and cook you a bowl of rice wine and fried egg dumplings."
The answer to his question was the closed door of the bathroom.
After Liang Xin came out, there was no one in the room.
All the books on the desk were put in order, and the orange that had just been peeled was missing a segment and was placed on the bedside table together with the peel.
Liang Xin let out a breath and stood in front of the mirror in the closet.
Her snow-white cheeks are like peach blossoms, her figure is as graceful as ice and she is elegant and charming.
Frowning slightly: "Are you blind?"
Thinking of Lu Chongfeng's ability to understand.
Was I too suggestive just now? The meaning was not very clear.
Liang Xin lifted the collar of her cotton sweater which reached up to her collarbone and looked at the white bath towel on the back of the chair.
Hesitate for a moment.
Thinking of Chairman Liu's determination to transform her into a model worker and a March 8th model.
Then the mother-in-law was very excited to take her to farm and feed pigs.
Finally picked up the towel.
Lu Zewei pushed open the door, holding a rice dumpling with fried egg and fermented rice in one hand.
The fermented rice in the bowl is shaking.
Even with the haste to stabilize it, a few drops spilled onto the floor.
The bowl, which didn't feel hot just now, suddenly became scorching.
Liang Xin was lying on the bed, clean and wrapped in only a bath towel.
Amid the red satin and golden peony flowers, her cheeks are like peach blossoms, her collarbones are slender, her shoulders are thin and round, and her fullness is faintly visible.
The light from the kerosene lamp flickered on her collarbone, so shiny and white that it was blindingly white. Even the white bath towel was dimmed by her snow-white skin.
That's too much.
Lu Zewei tried hard to adjust his chaotic breath, but he could no longer control the blood rushing through his veins.
"come over."
Liang Xin issued clear instructions.
Lu Zewei held the porcelain bowl tightly, his palms were slippery due to sweat, so he had to hold the bowl with both hands. He walked in front of Liang Xin, not daring to look around, his eyes fell on her black hair.
Liang Xin: "Where are you looking?"
“No.”
Liang Xin stretched out her hand, "Give it to me."
Lu Chongfeng swallowed several times, lowered his head slightly, and saw the extremely deep line from a high vantage point.
When he looked at her closely, he realized that her skin was white with a hint of pink. She had just finished a shower, and the pink color from the steam had not yet completely faded, and seemed to be still emitting a slight heat. He got closer and soon broke out in a sweat from the steam.
Lu Chongfeng raised his head and looked at the wall next to him. He slowly lowered his hand and placed the bowl on the bedside table.
The walls were no whiter than she was.
Liang Xin picked up the bowl, picked up the white porcelain spoon, and stirred the rice dumplings. "Have you taken your medicine?"
"have eaten."
Lu Chongfeng's palms were sweaty, and he reached out and picked up the handkerchief and clenched it.
"What happened to your quilt?"
"Nothing."
"...Nothing, why, why did you sleep next to me?"
Liang Xin ate a small dumpling, chewed it slowly, and said nothing.
Lu Chongfeng lowered his head to take a peek at her face, then immediately looked away.
The black and white woodblock print of me peeking at the girl next door bathing, which I saw for the first time, appeared in my mind clearly as never before.
Lu Chongfeng cursed inwardly, wondering why he thought of this pair of protagonists again.
He is legal.
It’s legal to watch!
Lu Chongfeng didn't dare to look. After taking a look, his blood vessels almost exploded.
I don’t know what will happen if I continue watching.
"How about getting married?"
Lu Chongfeng faced the wall and said, "Okay."
"What's good about it?"
"...Hello, so it's good to get married."
Liang Xin put down the half-eaten bowl and asked, "What's written in that book?"
Lu Chongfeng: ".......Children don't understand what adults see."
Liang Xin: “….”
"You married a child?"
“Women don’t understand what men see.”
"Show it to me."
Lu Chongfeng said in a tense voice, "You are still drunk, go to sleep."
Suddenly, the discipline buckle was pulled, and before Lu Chongfeng could react, he was pulled down.
Liang Xin turned over and jumped on his chest, throwing him onto the quilt.
Lu Chongfeng subconsciously reached out to steady her waist and back, but his hand felt cold and slippery. His big hand against her thin back clenched into a fist in an instant.
Liang Xin wrapped herself in a white bath towel and leaned against his green military uniform, "Sickly guy."
Lu Chongfeng clenched his teeth and refused to let go, "I'm fine."
"oh?"
Liang Xin stood up from under his military uniform, leaned sideways, picked up a half-eaten orange from the bedside table, and crawled under his uniform.
Lu Chongfeng's abdominal muscles tensed instantly, and as the cold orange slowly rolled upwards, his arms and insteps on both sides all tensed up, like a piece of hot steel plate.
An orange with a slice missing is as soft as a cloud. A slight slide can easily shake the indestructible steel plate, causing Liang Xin's hair to flutter.
Liang Xin, wrapped in a white bath towel, looked like a doctor in a white coat. The orange in her hand was like a doctor's stethoscope. Under her military uniform and white shirt, she probed a little bit, "Does it hurt here?"
Lu Chongfeng's forehead was covered with sweat. He clenched his fists and placed them on Liang Xin's back, afraid that she would fall. He gritted his teeth and shook his head.
The orange rolled smoother than at the beginning due to the sweat, from the abdominal muscles over the mountains and hills to the left heart, "Does your heart still hurt?"
Lu Chongfeng's Adam's apple rolled but he didn't say anything.
"It hurts here?"
Liang Xin leaned over and put her ear to his heart, "What kind of pain is it?"
The full and soft thing pressed against his chest, the veins on the side of Lu Chongfeng's neck bulged, he clenched his fist, loosened it, and clenched it again, the blood vessels on the back of his hand were abnormally prominent.
"You're so hot."
Liang Xin's left hand, which was exposed outside his shirt, climbed up to his chin and put it on his lower lip again, "Open your mouth and take your temperature."
While Lu Chongfeng was thinking about how to take her temperature, he had already obeyed the order and opened his mouth.
The next second, slender fingers crawled into the mouth like a little snake.
Lu Chongfeng's heart suddenly tightened and he clenched her fingers.
The slender fingertips were biting lightly between the lips and teeth.
Liang Xin put her lips close to his ear, which had been dripping blood, and breathed, "Hold the thermometer in your mouth for fifteen minutes."
Lu Chongfeng obeyed the order and held it in his mouth without moving.
But the thermometer was not obedient and kept moving between the teeth, as if trying to chase something.
The fingertips touch the tip of the tongue.
Lu Chongfeng's back shuddered and he swallowed subconsciously. When he heard the person in his arms hiss, he quickly loosened his teeth.
I lowered my head to look at her fingers, but all I saw was a pile of squeezed snow.
The fingers clenched into fists could no longer control themselves and loosened, touching the cool and smooth skin.
Just as she relieved the heat in her heart, the next second, she pressed his discipline button and pushed him into the peony bushes.
Liang Xin raised her slender white fingers. There was a circle of light teeth marks on her pink fingertips. She narrowed her eyes and asked, "Bite me?"
Lu Chongfeng couldn't make a sound, his chest kept heaving, and sweat was pouring down.
"When you don't talk, you're really likable."
Liang Xin put her fingers into her mouth and sucked them.
Lu Chongfeng's eyes suddenly caught fire and he stared at the rosy lips.
The thermometer had just touched the body temperature between his lips and teeth, and before it had cooled down, it was touching new temperature between her lips and teeth. If she moved the stethoscope away from her heart at this time and put this thermometer on it, the thermometer would explode in a few seconds.
Liang Xin released her hand that was pressing on his chest and leaned over to whisper in his sweaty ear, "Are there any patient and doctor roles in your book?"
"......"
Liang Xin grabbed his sweaty black hair, turned his face, and gently stroked his hot lips with her fingers again, "Answer me."
Lu Chongfeng panted, "No."
"What's that?"
".....samurai guards...and the princess."
Liang Xin touched the sweat on his face with the back of her hand and whispered, "What are they doing..."
Lu Chongfeng suddenly raised his head and bit her lips.
The wet hair fell on Liang Xin's eyelids. She closed her eyes and opened her mouth slightly.
Lu Chongfeng hugged Liang Xin's thin back tightly.
Liang Xin slid into his arms, lay on his hard chest, and bit each other's lips.
About a few minutes passed.
Liang Xin lifted her long eyelashes and looked closely at the small mole under his eye. Her tongue tip was itchy, but he could only bite his lips, from the corner of his mouth to the lip beads and then to his lower lip. The immaturity rushed to her face in a hurry. Even when she first opened her lips, he would only stick close to her and bite the soft flesh between his lips and teeth, but he didn't know how to go any further.
Lu Chongfeng hugged Liang Xin tightly, his heartbeat against hers, alcohol filling his lips and teeth, and the corners of his eyes were red, as if he was drunk in this way.
The crushed oranges seeped through the white shirt underneath and into the military jacket, adding an orange scent to the snow pile.
Another thermometer swam in.
Rather than a thermometer, it's more like a tongue depressor that a doctor uses to examine the throat.
The tongue depressor in the doctor's hand is a thin piece of wood with round ends. Pressing it will cause discomfort from the inside out.
But as soon as the soft and sweet tongue depressor touched his tongue, Lu Chongfeng suddenly opened his eyes, his heart softened, and his back felt numb.
Lu Zewei's dark eyes were burning with two flames as he looked at Liang Xin's drooping long eyelashes. He was so aroused that his fingertips could not help but press a few shallow dimples on her shoulders and back. The thick calluses also left a few red marks on her snow-white skin.
The lines on his palms almost penetrated into the bones, leaving marks.
Liang Xin bit the corner of his mouth and slowly opened her eyes.
When she left his lips, they were stained with blood.
He was so excited that he couldn't control his strength and bit it.
Liang Xin moved down, her eyes sparkling as she looked in silence at Lu Chongfeng, whose whole body was tense as iron, sweating profusely, and his lips were stained with blood.
I read the book in vain.
Liang Xin made up her mind and pulled open a corner of the wrapped bath towel, and the white bath towel instantly slid down the curve of her body.
