Chapter 34

On the other end of the phone, Aunt Wang was very seldom to hear her son so anxious, she laughed out loud, "Shitou, why are you so anxious? Everyone gets married like this, mom wants you to get married soon so I can have grandchildren sooner. But you can't get married without picking the right date, have you forgotten? In the past, Feng San'er in our team didn't pick the right date, and the couple didn't live happily after they got married, so they had to ask someone to calculate and pick a new date, and then they got better after holding the wedding banquet."

"Mom..." Cheng Zheng felt helpless for the first time. Three months? "That's too long."

He doesn't want to wait even a moment!

"You think it's too long now?" Aunt Wang sneered, not sparing any effort to criticize her son. "Lulu has been gone for a long time. If you had thought it through earlier, you would have been married by now. Who can you blame? It's all you. Give Lulu the phone number and I'll talk to her."

No matter how powerful the group leader is, he is powerless in front of me. Cheng Zheng handed the receiver to Jian Lu beside him and mouthed to her, "Mom wants to talk to you."

"Auntie Wang, I'm Lulu. Don't worry, he treats me very well..."

Cheng Zheng stood aside obediently, listening to his mother chatting with his boyfriend. He noticed that the operator was eavesdropping with the receiver in hand, and suddenly felt uncomfortable.

Especially when one of them asked if Cheng Zheng was good to you, and the other answered yes, "I'm fine."

He clearly saw the operator's expression change, and his eyes flickered towards him.

Xiao Liu, the operator in the communications room, is a 22-year-old warrior who got married last year and was transferred to the communications room for duty this month.

I didn’t expect that just a few days after taking up the post, I heard the big news about Captain Cheng, who is known as the most ruthless and the one least likely to get married in the 625th Unit!

When people are getting married, they are very interested in their partners! Some are even so anxious that they can't wait even three months.

Xiao Liu, who insists on professional ethics, tried hard to be serious about his expression. He couldn't help but secretly glance at Director Cheng, but was caught red-handed. Xiao Liu quickly retracted his gaze and continued to work.

Being a telephone operator is so hard. I have to hear so many things, but I can't say any of them to anyone else. I feel so depressed.

This is probably the most painful thing in the world: knowing so much gossip but not being allowed to tell it to others!

It’s so uncomfortable to hold it in!

The ones who laughed the most about Cheng Zheng's anxiety were Political Commissar Liang and Chief of Staff Xu.

The two men surrounded Cheng Zheng from both sides, preparing to interrogate him.

"I never thought you would end up like this. What did your brother advise you to do? He told you to hurry up and nod your head. Once the marriage report was filed, Comrade Jian Lu passed the political review, and the family housing application came in, wouldn't you happily go home with your wife?"

"That's right. We advised you so many times, but you just pretended. Now it's fine. Just wait for three months!"

Xu Changle was enjoying the show. He deserved it, he really deserved it! In the end, he did not forget to comfort his brother.

"Three months is not that hard to wait. It will pass in the blink of an eye."

"Yes, we will definitely fully support the date chosen by Aunt Wang."

Cheng Zheng was surrounded by the two people's evil voices, but he was unable to refute them for a while. Is this called shooting oneself in the foot?

Not only Lao Liang and Lao Xu, no one in the whole room stood on his side.

Feng Xiuhui and Cui Yuhe agreed even more, and both believed that choosing a good day for marriage would ensure family harmony in the future.

"Captain Cheng, it's just right that you guys should buy more furniture in these three months. It will take some time to replace the cabinets, and you also need to go to the department store to check out the new items, as well as new bed sheets and quilts... Three months is really not a long time."

This time, the two of them are getting married and no one from Jian Lu's family can come. Expecting Jian Hualin and his wife to come would simply cause trouble for themselves. It would also be inconvenient for the three sisters to bring their families along. Cheng Zheng's second brother's wife is about to get pregnant, so Aunt Wang estimates that she can get someone to come half a month before the wedding.

Feng Xiuhui and Cui Yuhe looked at this inexperienced couple and were busy imparting their experience in preparing for their wedding.

Cheng Zheng was quite studious. He even spent a candy to ask Dunzi to bring him paper and pen, and he wrote down everything one by one.

Jian Lu was enjoying herself on the side. Well, this man is quite self-aware. Let him have his way.

That night, Cheng Zheng returned home with a great harvest. He folded the page filled with things he needed to buy before marriage and put it in his trouser pocket.

He had a stack of receipts in his drawer, including more than ten industrial coupons, which should be enough to buy a bicycle. He had to borrow the industrial coupons for the radio. Liang Haisheng and Xu Lang had already volunteered to contribute.

It's like this in the army. If a soldier wants to get married, the others will help out and return the money next time.

Having attended wedding banquets of my fellow soldiers before, I never felt that there were indeed many things to prepare for a wedding.

After returning to the single dormitory, Cheng Zheng just took out his key and was about to open the door when he heard footsteps coming from next door, getting closer and closer.

"Old Cheng, are you back?" Political Commissar Wei walked out from the next room with a happy look on his face.

"Yes, just got back."

"I'm going to take a family leave soon, and I'm packing my things now." No one asked, but Political Commissar Wei started to brag again. He will take a half-month leave tomorrow to visit his girlfriend's hometown. "I'll wait for Cuicui's parents to meet. The date is so fixed, I'll file a marriage report when I come back!"

Life is full of beautiful hope. When thinking about the future, Political Commissar Wei's face is full of longing and yearning.

"You have no one, you don't understand."

Cheng Zheng raised his eyebrows. Lao Wei would catch him and tell him his love stories every now and then, and his ears were almost worn out. Now, he finally got the first chance.

"Old Wei, I'm sorry, I've already reported my marriage. You'd better hurry up and try to catch up with me." After saying that, he raised his head and chest and went back to the house.

After Cheng Zheng's door was closed, Political Commissar Wei finally realized something was wrong. What? What did Cheng Zheng say?

Has he already reported his marriage?

Political Commissar Wei returned to his room muttering to himself, thinking that this man was about to be driven crazy by him and had already started talking nonsense.

Why would someone who doesn't have a partner file a marriage report?

+++++

While Cheng Zheng was collecting industrial coupons, Jian Lu was busy with her work.

On Monday, Xiao Jian, a salesperson at the only supply and marketing cooperative on the island, finally started work.

Jian Lu, who hadn't experienced the feeling of working for a long time, was still a little curious, and Feng Xiuhui even boiled an egg for her.

There were few eggs at home, and we didn't have many egg tickets every month. We could buy twenty eggs a month, for a total of one yuan. Most of these eggs went into Dunzi's belly, because children were at a critical time of growth.

At other times, we would occasionally fry some eggs or make some egg soup, and the adults would enjoy it too.

"Sister Xiuhui, please save this egg for Dunzi." Jian Lu knew that egg tickets were hard to come by, and Feng Xiuhui, thinking that she was younger, had also stuffed eggs in her pocket a few times. But there were only so many each month, especially now that it was almost the end of the month, so she didn't feel comfortable competing with Dunzi for food.

Feng Xiuhui quickly peeled the egg, revealing the clean egg body, and passed it to him, "Don't worry about eating it. Besides, Captain Cheng gave me all his egg tickets."

After taking a bite of the fragrant egg, Jian Lu was a little surprised, "When did he give it to me?"

"It was the day before yesterday. You didn't know, did you?" Feng Xiuhui felt more and more that Captain Cheng was a man who cared about his wife. "To be honest, I used to worry that this man would be rough and careless, and we, as his wife, would be easily wronged. I didn't expect that Captain Cheng was so considerate that he even cared about you eating eggs."

Jian Lu felt happy after hearing this and swallowed the egg white in small sips.

Political Commissar Liang sat at the dinner table and took credit for it, "Hui'er, I'm not bad to you, am I? Cheng Zheng must have been around me for a long time and learned a thing or two from me. How does the saying go, 'A red bird is redder than a red bird!'"

Feng Xiuhui has never been to school and thinks her husband is crazy. "How can someone call himself a pig?"

The table was filled with laughter. Dunzi let out a chuckle and explained to his mother, "Mom, it's not that pig, hehe, it's that Zhu."

How could Feng Xiuhui tell one pig from another? There were simply too few pigs on the island. The pork was so delicious that she really wanted to eat it every day.

After breakfast, Jian Lu walked to the supply and marketing cooperative. Looking at the bungalow from afar, she felt excited.

In the supply and marketing cooperative, two sales assistants were already cleaning the room. Li Jihong, a petite girl with a slightly square face, was wiping the glass cabinet with a rag. When she looked up, she saw the female comrade who came in.

"Hello, comrade. Are you Mrs. Li? My name is Jian Lu, and I'm the new salesperson."

Li Jihong's husband is the head of the Fourth Regiment, and he is also an old acquaintance of Cheng Zheng. A few days ago, the husband asked her to take care of the new salesperson who was about to start working at the supply and marketing cooperative, saying that the person was the girlfriend of Cheng Zheng, the head of the Third Regiment.

Just these words made Li Jihong almost drop her jaw in shock.

The last time Jian Lu came to take the exam, she happened to have asked for leave for something. So today was the first time she met the legendary Team Leader Cheng.

"Yes!" Putting the rag on the glass cabinet, Li Jihong invited Jian Lu into the room, "You are Comrade Jian Lu? Welcome, we will fight together in the future."

Cheng Zheng is a well-known dullard in the army. He is not interested in women at all. Unexpectedly, he has found such a beautiful wife.

Jian Lu wore a blue shirt, black trousers and two neatly braided pigtails today. According to what she said when she looked in the mirror this morning, this outfit was perfect for an interview, and it showed her to be capable and elegant.

But even so, she is still dazzling and beautiful, so beautiful that you can't take your eyes off her.

"Sifeng, Sifeng, someone's here, a new salesperson is here." Li Jihong called out to Qiu Sifeng, another salesperson who had just gone to the backyard to fetch water.

Qiu Sifeng ran out in small steps and saw that it was Jian Lu whom she had met during the last exam. She nodded and said, "Wait a moment, we will pack up right away."

"good."

Jian Lu looked around and found that the supply and marketing cooperative was about the size of four bungalows and was mainly divided into four areas. The first was the daily necessities area, which mainly sold enamel basins, enamel cups, soap, toothbrushes, tooth powder, etc.; the second was the fabric area, which sold fabrics of various colors; the third was the kitchen area, which mainly sold pots, bowls, spoons, seasonings, etc.; the fourth area was the candy and pastry area, which naturally sold all kinds of candy;

The four major areas are further divided into smaller commodity categories, which are managed by four sales clerks.

While Jian Lu was looking around the entire supply and marketing cooperative, Li Jihong and Qiu Sifeng finally finished their work. They picked up the small blackboard at the door and prepared to write down the fabrics that had arrived that day.

"Sister Jihong, let's let the new salesperson have a try." Qiu Sifeng was holding a piece of chalk in her hand and was about to start writing when she thought of this.

Li Jihong thought it was feasible, and said to Jian Lu, "Comrade Jian Lu, since this is your first day here, I'll let you handle the fabric writing today."

Jian Lu naturally had no objection. It was just making a blackboard newspaper, which was her strong point.

Every day, the supply and marketing cooperative would put a blackboard at the door, on which would be written what new cloth had arrived that day, what color and material it was, how much it cost per foot, and what time it would be supplied.

For example, today, in addition to the ordinary cloth sold on weekdays, the supply and marketing cooperative has also received a batch of red plain cotton cloth and twill cotton cloth, which will be sold at 8:30 in the morning. The price is also one cent per foot more expensive than ordinary coarse cloth.

Jian Lu paid a little more attention, but her beautiful chalk handwriting was already showing even when she was being reserved.

Qiu Sifeng saw that the handwriting was much better than his own, and immediately said, "Wow, it's well written. You can write it every morning from now on."

Jian Lu put away the chalk. She had not expected that this person was also a gossiper. She did not say anything at the moment and followed Li Jihong to visit the counters.

Throughout the morning, Jian Lu followed the two salesmen to sell things, memorizing the location and price of each item and familiarizing herself with all the procedures.

In fact, being a salesperson in this era is really good. Customers are very polite and friendly to salespeople, and they almost want to worship them, calling them "good comrades" all the time.

It was not until the lunch break when the crowd gradually dispersed and Qiu Sifeng returned from the cafeteria with food that the three of them had their lunch break.

Three people had three dishes, one meat and two vegetables, which was quite rich.

"It's all Sun Qiuyue's fault. She hasn't come back yet. The three of us are too busy to handle it."

Sun Qiuyue, another salesperson among the old employees of the supply and marketing cooperative, has not returned from leave yet.

Jian Lu recalled that when she first saw the job posting at the supply and marketing cooperative, she must have asked about the salesperson named Sun Qiuyue.

"Didn't her child say he was sick? He should be here in two days." Li Jihong buried her head in her meal and enthusiastically introduced the supply and marketing cooperative to Jian Lu. "In fact, the three of us are usually able to handle it. It's not as exaggerated as Sifeng said."

The three of them chatted while eating. The two old people were mainly curious about Jian Lu. They were even more surprised when they learned that she was going to marry Captain Cheng in three months.

"I didn't expect that Head Cheng is also going to get married."

"Captain Cheng has very high standards. He actually wants to get married?" Qiu Sifeng looked at Jian Lu again, and it seemed to make sense. Who would not want to marry a comrade like this?

In the afternoon, Li Jihong let Jian Lu take charge of the glass cabinet for daily necessities. Seeing that she was doing a good job, she felt relieved.

"This Saturday is the shopping day for our supply and marketing cooperative employees this month. You're getting married soon, so you'll definitely have a lot to buy. You can choose first then."

It is said that the benefits of being a supply and marketing cooperative employee are good. You can also make internal purchases! There are even certain discounts on prices. It is really a great profit.

That night, when Cheng Zheng came to pick Jian Lu up from get off work, he heard her talking excitedly, "Sister-in-law Jihong told me to choose more. There are a lot of things on Saturday, including pillowcases, scarves, and hair ties. There is also an enamel basin with the word "囍" on it for our wedding, and a towel with the word "囍" on it..."

Jian Lu said whatever came to her mind. She had previously thought that getting married was too fast, but now she was excited about buying things for her own little home.

She was an orphan in her previous life. After working hard for several years, she finally bought a small two-bedroom apartment. Not long after she moved in, she arrived in the 1970s when conditions were difficult. She was filled with frustration.

Perhaps because of her background, she has always longed to have a home of her own, and it would be best if she could decorate it into a warm and cozy home by herself.

Cheng Zheng listened silently. This was a side of Jian Lu that he had never seen before.

I'm seriously thinking about what to buy for my home, from furniture and cabinets to how to place the sofas and coffee tables, from the colors of clothes and towels to the magpie or peony patterns on the thermos and enamel basins...

Cheng Zheng has been living in a single dormitory in the army. He doesn't like buying things and thinks the fewer things there are in the house, the better, and the simpler and cleaner the better. Now, listening to her partner's plan to fill their home to the brim, he feels warmed at heart.

Thinking about the appearance, it seems pretty good.

"Then I'll come over on Saturday to help you get the things. I'll buy everything I can and leave it in my dormitory first. If the supply and marketing cooperative doesn't have it, you can go to the department store in the city to buy it."

"Okay!" Jian Lu is a man of action. Thinking of the many things she wants to buy, her shopping desire is already burning in her chest, and she can't wait to act immediately. "By the way, have you applied for a house?"

"I have applied. Once my marriage report and your political review are approved, I will apply for a house. It just so happens that Deputy Head Zhang of Lao Liang's floor is being transferred and will move out in two months. It will be a perfect time for us to move in then."

"Really?" Jian Lu was very happy to think that she could be neighbors with Feng Xiuhui's family again, and live upstairs with Cui Yuhe's family. It would at least give them some care.

"Yeah!" Seeing his girlfriend happy, Cheng Zheng was also happy, and felt his heart was filled with joy. "We can be neighbors again, and you are familiar with them, so life will be comfortable this way."

——

The planning of the new home was carried out in an orderly manner, and Jian Lu devoted herself to her work during the day.

She has a strong learning ability. In just one or two days, she had memorized the general situation of the commodities in each counter of the supply and marketing cooperative, and was also able to handle passengers buying things with ease.

That day, Sun Qiuyue finally returned to work and suddenly saw a strange face in the supply and marketing cooperative. She almost forgot that there was a new person.

"Qiuyue, this is the new salesperson, Comrade Jian Lu, the candidate for the leader of the third group." Li Jihong introduced them enthusiastically, "Lulu, this is Sun Qiuyue, the wife of the director of the logistics department. She is a few years older than you. You can just call her sister-in-law."

"Hello, Sister Qiuyue."

Sun Qiuyue obviously had no interest in getting to know new colleagues. She just nodded and put down her bag. "Lanlan was not feeling well. I gave her medicine before she came out."

Sun Qiuyue has a four-year-old daughter at home who has always been in poor health and is often sick. Everyone knows it. Li Jihong is an experienced person and has given birth to three children in total. She shared her parenting experience with her.

Naturally, Jian Lu had no say in this topic. She wasn't even married yet. The most she could do was look at the cute child and rub him.

"Comrade, let me see that yellow scarf, thank you." Suddenly, two comrades, a man and a woman, came to the counter and asked to buy the most fashionable scarf.

Yesterday, the supply and marketing cooperative received a new batch of silk scarves. The fabric is soft and the color is bright, which matches the skin tone very well. Several of them were sold out in one day. They are very popular.

The man who came to buy the scarf was wearing a blue work uniform with the words "garment factory" printed on the chest. The woman was wearing a floral shirt and was asking Jian Lu to hold the scarf.

Jian Lu took out a scarf from the cabinet and passed it to the customer. She couldn't help but promote it, "This is a scarf from H City. It's very fashionable."

She didn't lie, this scarf is indeed the most popular one right now. In the words of later generations, it is a hot item, leading the fashion trend.

The female comrade was obviously very satisfied. She kept stroking it, put it on her neck to try it out, and admired it in front of the mirror.

"How much is this one?" the man asked.

"One dollar and a half."

"It's so expensive?" the man blurted out, causing the female comrade next to him to roll her eyes at him before she paid the money. However, she was still busy, "It's more expensive than a pound of meat. I don't know why you women like this stuff."

"Comrade, ignore him and wrap it up for me."

Jian Lu did not interfere in the couple's affairs. She just took the money and handed the scarf to the female comrade, and was thanked in return.

At the end of the day, the workload was not too intense, and she could sit down and rest when she had nothing to do. No customer dared to complain about it, so Jian Lu actually began to like this job.

There are many customers coming and going in the supply and marketing cooperative, which is equivalent to a monopoly business on the entire island. There is no need to worry about not being able to sell things, only that there will not be enough to grab.

Here, you can see all kinds of people every day, whether it is customers who want to see Li Jihong's steady hand in cutting cloth for a foot of cloth coupon, or parents whose children want to buy a piece of candy but have no candy coupons at home and want to ask if they can sell the candy alone...

A few days later, Jian Lu, who was on duty in front of the cloth glass cabinet, began to learn how to measure and cut cloth. She had never done this in her previous life. She bought clothes ready-made, and now she had to deal with cloth every day.

Since she traveled through time, she has already upgraded many skills and learned a lot.

"Comrade, please give me two feet of that white coarse cloth." A family of three came into the supply and marketing cooperative.

On this day, Jian Lu was busy at the fabric counter. After a few days of learning, she was now able to measure and cut fabric expertly. She was cutting the fabric while quoting the price, "Two feet of coarse fabric, two feet of fabric coupons and 25 cents."

"Thank you." The woman buying the cloth said gently, but the little boy next to her was a little impatient.

"Dad, I want new clothes."

The man heard this and said with the same expression as the little boy just now, "Let your mother make it for you. Next month we will buy two more feet and make you a pair of pants."

"Great! I have new clothes and new pants!"

After the family of three left, Jian Lu and Li Jihong chatted, "The father and son just now are so alike, as if they were carved from the same mold."

Jian Lu thought it was copied and pasted, and couldn't help but look at it several times.

Li Jihong nodded, "Yes."

Qiu Sifeng put his hands on the candy counter and asked Jian Lu loudly, "How could it not be similar? The kid's father and the gay man are brothers."

"ah?"

Jian Lu felt confused when she heard this. She had to figure it out. What did it mean that the kid's father and the gay man were brothers?

"Sister-in-law Sifeng, are you saying that the gay man is the child's uncle?"

"That's right!" Qiu Sifeng raised an eyebrow at her, walked a few steps towards Jian Lu, and chatted with her about gossip in a friendly manner.

"But he just called me dad."

"This is a story! It's really interesting. You don't know, the man's elder brother died in an accident, and his son was only two months old at the time. The widow and orphan had a hard time, and the man was a bachelor. In the end, his parents decided to let his younger brother-in-law marry his elder sister-in-law, so the nephew became a son, and they are still a family!"

Jian Lu: “…!!!”

Boy, what a mess!

"Can we live together like this? Isn't it awkward?"

"What's so awkward about that? It doesn't matter who you live with. Life is hard for a widow, and it's good to have someone who cares about you. Now my family lives a good life. We fish for the seafood market, and we earn more than those who work in the fields. Besides, we have the same last name, and we do look alike."

Jian Lu never thought that she could eat melons by selling two feet of cloth, wow.

=

After busy work, Saturday finally arrived - the internal procurement meeting of the supply and marketing cooperative that Jian Luxuan had been looking forward to for the most.

When it's time to get off work, it's their turn to shop.

Jian Lu had never been so eager to get off work. When it was almost time, the man who complained that the scarf was too expensive last time appeared again.

To be honest, she was a little annoyed to suddenly come to work after get off work, but since she was serving the people, she had to work!

"Comrade, please bring me a yellow scarf. Yes, this one."

Jian Lu complained in her heart, I didn't expect that this person complained about the high price last time, but would come back to buy it this time? But after all, he was being nice to his wife. I just didn't think of buying two of the same one, at least he could have changed the color.

Jian Lu, who was in a hurry to get off work and buy something for herself, accepted the RMB 1.50 and handed the scarf over, only to see the man leave in a hurry.

"Lulu, come on, take a look at what you want. It will be useful when you get married and move."

“Here it comes!”

The purchasing meeting within the supply and marketing cooperative is mainly to let them choose first among some commodities, including some commodities that are said to be defective. Although they are said to be defective commodities, in fact, there is no problem at all.

The ones that haven’t been selected will continue to be sold.

For example, there was a handkerchief that was supposed to have a diagonal checkered pattern printed on it, but the last part was printed upside down, so it was naturally unqualified. But Jian Lu didn't think there was a problem at all. If she put it aside in the future, maybe someone would praise her for her personality!

After a day of training, Cheng Zheng rushed to the supply and marketing cooperative to work as a porter for Jian Lu.

Two thermoses, covered with bamboo shells; an enamel basin with the word "囍" printed on it, and two peonies at the bottom; a plastic soap box with a dragon and phoenix pattern; three white towels...

Cheng Zheng stuffed all his stuff into the backpack he brought with him, filling it up completely, and then took out 13.5 yuan from his pocket.

Jian Lu returned with a lot of things and followed Cheng Zheng with empty hands, ready to take all her things to his dormitory. When the house in the family compound was allocated, she could move there.

In fact, she had thought about putting it at the Liang family's house, so that it would be convenient to move when the time comes. However, the Liang family's place was not too big, and it was already filled with the family's things. If she put so many things in there, it would just be a nuisance and there was no need to bother others.

Anyway, Cheng Zheng lives alone, and I heard that the dormitory is quite empty. This man just doesn't have much stuff.

This was Jian Lu's first time going to Cheng Zheng's dormitory, and she was inevitably a little curious and nervous as she walked along the road. Cheng Zheng's single dormitory building was hidden under a grove of locust trees, and the green leaves on the branches were swaying in the air, bringing a bit of coolness.

"Comrade Cheng Zheng, I want to visit your room. You didn't clean it in advance, did you? It's clean and beautiful." Jian Lu looked around and thought this place was pretty good.

Cheng Zheng carried his backpack with ease and raised his eyebrows at Jian Lu, "My house is always clean. I'm number one in housekeeping."

"Oh, that sounds pretty impressive." Jian Lu put her hands behind her back and smiled, "Then I'll check it carefully. If I find any dust, I'll deduct points from you."

The floor where Cheng Zheng was located was full of cadres, so there were much fewer people, and there was not the spectacular scene of groups of soldiers that Jian Lu had expected.

As soon as the door opened and she glanced at Cheng Zheng's single dormitory, Jian Lu believed that this guy was really the best at housekeeping!

It was so clean and tidy that even the quilt on the bed was made of square blocks of tofu. They were indeed a military unit with strict housekeeping requirements, and their housekeeping was even more terrible than hers.

It highlights a cold, hard and inhuman feeling.

She seriously suspected that Cheng Zheng had obsessive-compulsive disorder and that he placed things too neatly.

"Please sit down first. I'll pour you some water." It was the first time that Cheng Zheng brought a girl to his dormitory. The temperature of the dormitory, which was not big to begin with, suddenly rose. He picked up the thermos and poured water into the enamel cup, then handed it to Jian Lu.

Of course the door was open. Nowadays, the conduct of men and women is taken very seriously. Even couples have to avoid suspicion. It doesn't make sense for a man and a woman to be alone in a room with the door closed.

Jian Lu sat on the stool and looked around. The house was really well-kept and very satisfying. Well, the family would rely on him from now on.

Instructing Cheng Zheng to put away the things he had just bought today, Jian Lu looked at the slightly empty room which suddenly became much more spacious, and nodded in satisfaction.

"Comrade Cheng Zheng, you've worked hard." With such a capable partner, Jian Lu felt that she could rest easy. She reached out and patted the man's strong arm in a pretentious manner, praising him. "The organization values ​​you very much, so keep up the good work."

Cheng Zheng grabbed the white wrist that was gently patting him, rubbing it gently, and rubbing the back of Jian Lu's hand with the tip of his thumb, "Thank you for the organization's trust, I will definitely not let you down."

Jian Lu's face and hands were burning. Could this guy not be so serious when saying sweet words?

Quite lethal!

"Ahem, there are people outside. How dare you grab my hand? Be careful or you will be taken away for ideological education."

Jian Lu wanted to fight back, but Cheng Zheng was not willing to agree. He took a look outside, estimated the angle of the door, leaned over, held the base of the stool with one hand, and put his other hand behind Jian Lu's back, and moved both the person and the stool towards the door.

"It's hard to see now."

This man's sudden action startled Jian Lu so much that she instinctively put her hands around Cheng Zheng's neck. She was afraid of falling.

When the stool fell to the ground, she realized that this posture was a little inappropriate. Cheng Zheng was leaning close to her, while she, with her little face tilted up and her hands clasped, it was hard to tell whether she was enjoying it or not.

Watching him from such a close distance, she had to admit that Director Cheng was really handsome, especially his superior brow bones, thin lips with clear outlines, and a sexy look. He looked delicious at first glance...

Cheng Zheng felt his body getting hot when he realized that his partner was staring at his lips. He could see Jian Lu's flawless face and pursed her red lips. Although the two of them were mostly blocked by the wooden door, the door was actually open. If someone came in...

Cheng Zheng used the last bit of his remaining rationality to loosen his hand and took a few steps back, but he bumped into the wooden door with a thud.

"Are you okay?" Jian Lu didn't care about the idea of ​​kissing her partner at the moment, and it was more important to take care of the man's head first.

The famous Captain Cheng could actually be so reckless at times?

"It's okay." Cheng Zheng's whole body was hot, and he quickly avoided Jian Lu's touch. Just now, when she stretched out her hand and put it on his arm, he was so hot that he couldn't stand it. "Just sit there."

Jian Lu felt aggrieved for being rejected for no reason. She cared about him, but she was ordered to sit back?

One of them was sitting and the other was standing, and they were silent for a long time.

Cheng Zheng gradually lost all his heat and felt miserable. He softened his voice and said, "Lulu, let's not wait three months to get married. There are many good days in the near future."

Upon hearing this, Jian Lu shook her head vigorously and walked towards him with a smile, "No, Auntie Wang said that the best time will be three months later. We must listen to her. As the saying goes, if you don't listen to the old people, you will suffer the consequences."

Cheng Zheng smiled bitterly helplessly, this woman wanted to torture him even though she didn't want to get married now and yet she had to stay so close to him!

Jian Lu took a few steps forward. All Cheng Zheng could see was her red lips opening and closing, which looked very soft. The whole room seemed to be filled with her breath, which carried a sweet scent.

"Then don't come to recruit me."

Taking a step back, Captain Cheng leaned against the wall with his back, most of his body blocked by the open wooden door. With a hoarse voice, he stood up to his opponent for once and kept him at a distance.

Jian Lu: “…!”

That's too much! I'm your crush!

Just admit it!

Jian Lu walked quickly forward, put one hand on Cheng Zheng's arm, and suddenly a beautiful face came closer. Her red lips pressed against Cheng Zheng's thin lips and gave him a hard kiss.

Both of their lips were warm, and they were breathing heavily, with clear and sweet breaths entwined together. Jian Lu could feel Cheng Zheng's whole body stiffen, and he maliciously rolled his lips around...

'Great revenge'!

Jian Lu was ready to take a step back and run, but Cheng Zheng, who had been in the army for many years, was even quicker. He grabbed her with his iron-like hands, and his eyes suddenly changed, showing some obscure emotions.

The lips that had just been separated were pressed together again. Jian Lu was kissed by the man, and her lips were pecked lightly. When she closed her eyes, she could see Cheng Zheng's eyelashes, which were black and curled, trembling with his kissing movements.

Jian Lu's lips were like the most juicy and sweet fruits, tempting people to pick them and making people linger on. Cheng Zheng placed soft kisses on her red lips one by one, imitating Jian Lu's behavior just now, lingering on them.

There were footsteps outside the house. Jian Lu, who was enjoying herself, suddenly stiffened all over. She pushed the man in front of her and moaned, "Someone..."

Behind the door, Cheng Zheng was intoxicated by the tenderness and was unwilling to let go. He just held on to her. Only Jian Lu's heart was pounding. She heaved a sigh of relief when the footsteps outside faded away.

Jian Lu opened her mouth and bit the man's lips hard. Only then did she escape. Her face was flushed, and her peach blossom eyes, which seemed to be able to squeeze water out of them, were tinged with charm as she glared at the man who had lost control.

"Don't hire me."

There were traces of sweat on Cheng Zheng's forehead. He stepped forward and gently wiped the sweat off Jian Lu's forehead. Both of them were hot.

A blush crept up on the girl's face, her eyes were watery, tiny beads of sweat oozed from the tip of her nose, and her lips turned bright red, as if inviting to be picked.

"Cheng Zheng, you..." Just as she was about to scold him, Jian Lu remembered that she was the one who kissed him first. It was over. She had really gotten herself into trouble.

Forget it, she decided to stay away from Cheng Zheng and not hire him again before getting married!
