Chapter 80

Jian Lu never expected that Comrade Cheng Zheng would use his iron will on himself and would "rather die than surrender" and resolutely refuse to wear this lovely parent-child outfit.

There's no other way. It's such a nice piece of men's clothing, made of such precious fabric, but she just used it as pajamas. She can't just let it go to waste.

Originally, the dress was made in his size. It was very loose on Jian Lu, covering her thighs and down. Because it was made of soft material, it was really comfortable to wear.

The next day, we prepared to rest at night.

"Your dad even complained about our clothes." Jian Lu was wearing men's clothes in the bedroom, and she murmured to Shuang Shuang who was also wearing cartoon doll parent-child clothes, "Shuang Shuang, do you think the clothes made by mom are pretty?"

"It looks good~" Shuangshuang liked it of course, and even touched the cute little doll embroidered under her clothes, "Sangsang likes it very much."

"You are still understanding, mom!" Jian Lu hugged her daughter and kissed her. She felt more and more that Cheng Zheng, this stinky man, was ignorant. "Your father just has bad taste. Why can't gay men wear such clothes? He is just an old-fashioned person. I have seen men wearing pink clothes..."

"Who have you seen wearing pink?" Cheng Zheng, who had been busy with official business recently, had just returned. Standing at the door, he heard his wife loudly scolding him in the house, and even talking about other men.

When I walked further inside, I was almost dazzled!

How did the white shirt that I made for myself end up on her?!

The oversized white shirt looked loose and lazy on Jian Lu. Cheng Zheng saw that the shirt disappeared an inch below her thighs, revealing only a pair of straight white legs. They were slender and well-proportioned, and even glowed white at night.

Cheng Zheng's eyes couldn't help but become hot, and he slowly looked away.

"You're back?" Jian Lu noticed that the man's expression looked a little strange. She guessed that he was jealous after hearing her talking about macho fans?

Thinking of this man's jealous behavior, Jian Lu, who was already upset, decided to add fuel to the fire.

"Yes, some gay men who are naturally handsome look handsome in pink, and they are not afraid that patterns or colors will affect their temperament."

Cheng Zheng's face froze and he felt even more tired.

Sitting on the bed, he defended his bottom line again, "They are not in their right mind. How can the masters wear such colors?"

"You are just old-fashioned!" Jian Lu knew in her heart that it was too difficult to make this native of the 1970s understand the aesthetic changes of later generations, but she said ruthlessly, "Forget it, it's just right that you don't wear it. I have a few more nightgowns. Do they look good?"

Then he simply stood up and turned around on the bed, with the hem of his shirt flying around, creating tiny ripples in the air.

Cheng Zheng's throat tightened. Looking at Jian Lu, who was smiling like a flower and seemed to be showing him her new "nightgown" seriously, his Adam's apple rolled.

"Mom, you're so beautiful!" Shuangshuang puffed up her chubby cheeks and clapped for her mother, praising her in a baby voice.

"Shuang Shuang." Cheng Zheng approached the lady and discussed with her, "How about sleeping with grandma tonight?"

Shuangshuang frowned and pouted, "No."

Sometimes she sleeps with mom and dad at night, and sometimes with grandma. Most of the time she is not picky and is a good baby. But tonight she is already in mom and dad's room and doesn't want to leave.

"Dad, can you put a penny in your piggy bank?"

Huh? Shuangshuang's eyes lit up. Just as she was about to agree, she started bargaining with her father, "Two cents."

"Okay, deal."

Jian Lu noticed that the father and daughter were whispering to each other. Just when she was about to ask what they were talking about, she saw Cheng Zheng carrying the daughter away.

The two of them were in their father's arms, waving goodbye to their mother. They looked as cute as they could be.

When Cheng Zheng came back from next door, Jian Lu was lying on the bed, flipping through a book, trying hard to ignore the burning gaze of a certain man.

Once this man sent his daughter away, he had no other purpose.

“Lulu.”

Cheng Zheng's voice was a little hoarse. He turned over and lay down next to Jian Lu.

"Don't hire me!" Jian Lu didn't even look at him, she just said angrily, "If you don't like the clothes I made, don't talk to me."

"Okay, just give me the clothes now." Cheng Zheng said with a smile in his voice, relaxed and happy.

Jian Lu looked up from the book and looked at Cheng Zheng, "Hey, how come you suddenly came to your senses..."

Halfway through her words, Jian Lu suddenly remembered that the clothes were on her!

"rogue!"

Jian Lu glanced at him. She didn't expect that the old-fashioned man with thick eyebrows and big eyes would actually betray her and say such words!

But in Cheng Zheng's eyes, this glance was full of charm and very alluring.

"I am being rude to my own wife, and this great leader would not agree with that."

"Don't bother others with this kind of thing. How shameless of you!"

"Just tell me whether you will give it to me or not." Cheng Zheng approached Jian Lu, and his deep and magnetic voice exploded in her ears.

Jian Lu seemed to be bewitched by the voice and turned to look at him. The two of them were so close that their breaths were entangled and for a moment they couldn't tell who was who.

The red lips opened slightly, "What if I don't give it to you?"

"Then I'll help you take it off."

“You dare!”

Jian Lu's words were harsh, but there was no way to resist. The bright light illuminated the charming room. The white dress flew from the head of the bed to the foot of the bed, and finally half of it was at the foot of the bed, and the other half was hanging in the air.

As the wooden bed rose and fell, it finally couldn't hold up and fell to the ground...

The next day, Cheng Zheng picked up the clothes that had been punished, washed them, and hung them on the wire in the yard.

This time, when he looked at the white shirt again, he found it much more pleasing to the eye.

Jian Lu slept until early in the morning, then got up with a sore back and weak legs. She went to the yard to brush her teeth with a toothbrush in hand, and immediately saw a white shirt swaying in the breeze.

Various images appeared before her eyes, Jian Lu blushed, and decided to seal this dress forever!

No one should wear it.

Cheng Zheng felt a little regretful about this. He didn't want to wear it, but he wanted to see his wife wear it. However, Jian Lu gave him a look and he became obedient.

Shuangshuang was very depressed. They had agreed to wear the same parent-child clothes as mom and dad, but in the end, she was the only one wearing them. She wanted to cry.

However, Cheng Zheng and his daughter's protests were ineffective.

=

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and Jian Lu is busy making a heat-relief device at home.

"Shuangshuang, come and have some pumpkin and mung bean soup."

Jian Lu cooked a pot of pumpkin and mung bean soup today. It was refreshing and thirst-quenching, and tasted good. Except for the portion left for Shuangshuang, the rest was chilled in cold water for a long time, leaving a slight coolness.

"Sister-in-law!" Xiao Zhao, the orderly, came to get something as ordered, saying that it was the regiment commander's wife who wanted him to deliver something.

Jian Lu handed him a bowl of pumpkin and green bean soup and said, "There are several bowls of soup in it. I've also prepared some for you. Drink it with your leader."

Cheng Zheng has been getting busier and busier recently. He said that things in the South China Sea were not peaceful, so he has been leaving early and returning late for three or four days in a row. He and Jian Lu have hardly seen each other.

Seeing that the weather was hot and he was busy with work, Jian Lu thought of a way to ask the orderly to send some coolant over.

"Thank you, sister-in-law!" Xiao Zhao showed a simple smile. "I promise to bring it to the leader!"

Xiao Zhao returned to the unit carrying his lunch box and knocked on the door of the regiment commander's office.

"report."

"Come in." Cheng Zheng was sitting on the sofa in the office, discussing military affairs with Liang Haisheng and Xu Lang. Hearing Xiao Zhao's voice, he said without raising his head, "If you have anything to say, just tell me."

"Captain, my sister-in-law asked me to bring you some pumpkin and green bean soup."

Hearing the word "sister-in-law", Cheng Zheng looked over and saw that Xiao Zhao had a good-for-nothing in his hands.

"Put it down." The voice softened a little.

"yes!"

Liang Haisheng heard that there was something good, moved his stiff arms, and rubbed his hands together, ready to reach out and open the lid of the rice bucket.

"What are you doing?" Cheng Zheng raised his eyelids and stopped him.

"Drink some soup! Pumpkin and mung bean soup, right? The name sounds refreshing!"

Xiao Zhao was still standing by and added, "My sister-in-law chilled it in cold water and said it tastes more refreshing."

"Sister Lulu is so thoughtful!" Liang Haisheng laughed and felt the office getting more stuffy.

"It has nothing to do with you guys even if I do." Cheng Zheng brought the rice bucket to himself, "Go drink the water by yourselves."

Xu Lang was unhappy, "Old Cheng, what do you mean? Are you so stingy?"

"How much is this? My wife made it for me, but it's not enough for me. You all have appetites as big as cows. You want to drink it? Go home and ask your wife to make it for you."

"No, that's not interesting!" Liang Haisheng stood up, ready to use force! Since he wouldn't listen to my kind words, he could only rob it openly!

Beside him, Xu Lang was also ready to fight at any time.

Cheng Zheng was not in a hurry. "Okay, grab this, and you can forget about smoking from me. Choose for yourself, do you want a cigarette or a soup?"

Liang Haisheng & Xu Lang: "..."

The two looked at each other and read the answer from each other's eyes at the same time: cigarettes are expensive, only a fool would not choose cigarettes!

Finally, during the break of the meeting, Cheng Zheng drank the cool and refreshing pumpkin and mung bean soup, which made Liang Haisheng and Xu Lang almost break their teeth.

"Report, Commander." The orderly Xiao Zhao couldn't help it. He stood aside and hesitated for a moment, but finally spoke.

"What's wrong?"

"Captain, my sister-in-law said there's a bowl for me." Little Zhao didn't want to snatch the food from the tiger's mouth, because that was given to the commander by his sister-in-law. The commander thought it was such a treasure that he was unwilling to share it with even his two best brothers, but he was greedy!

Sure enough, when the team leader looked at him, Xiao Zhao swallowed and stood firm without frightening.

"Come and scoop a bowl for yourself."

"Yes! Thank you, Captain!"

Watching the orderly Xiao Zhao take a bowl of soup, Liang Hai drank the tea vigorously, but still felt thirsty. He looked into the rice bucket filled with pumpkin and mung bean soup and found that there was still some.

"Stop looking at it. It'll make you even greedier." Cheng Zheng drank the soup leisurely. The pumpkin was dense and sweet, while the mung bean was soft and delicious. The soup made from the two had a hint of chill after being cooled, and waves of sweetness surged into his heart. It was truly a magic weapon to relieve the summer heat.

"Virtue!" Liang Haisheng was about to say that Cheng Zheng was stingy, but then he remembered that Cheng Zheng had reluctantly let him and Xu Lang smoke together. He didn't dare to say anything more, so he just said, "I'll let Xiuhui suffer in the future."

At this time, Feng Xiuhui, who was wearing a straw hat, had no time to pay attention to Liang Haisheng.

She is busy.

The wasteland behind the family compound was reclaimed and a five-mu field was developed to grow vegetables, which would be used to provide benefits to the military families in the future.

To this end, the troops also specially vacated jobs and hired family members to grow crops and harvest vegetables. This not only solved the work problems of some of the family members accompanying the troops, but also alleviated the food problem. All it required was initial funding support from the troops.

This matter was also Qian Honglian's idea. She drew up a plan and it was approved through layers of review.

Qian Honglian and Song Zhaokang also moved recently, from a multi-story residential building to a two-story single-family building, and across the street is the home of Deputy Brigade Commander Wang Qiang.

After what happened last time, Qian Honglian and the Wang family could only say a few words to each other when they met, and everyone just had to maintain a superficial harmony.

"Lulu, what's going on? You're not going to write me in the newspaper, are you?" Feng Xiuhui was watering the ground. Next to her was Jian Lu, who was observing the interview with manuscript paper and a pen.

Jian Lu was preparing an article for the family compound newspaper at the end of the month. Now that the vegetable field had been developed, it would naturally be a good material.

"Sister Xiuhui, you never know. If you work hard, I might write you off."

Jian Lu also wore a straw hat to block the scorching sun, and under the shadow was a bright and beautiful face.

"That's great." Feng Xiuhui hurried to finish today's work and pulled Jian Lu to the shaded place nearby to rest.

Nowadays, Feng Xiuhui works five days a week, working about three to four hours at a time, either in the morning or in the afternoon. The specific arrangement depends on the team leader's shift.

The workload is not big, so the salary is not high. We can earn about 8 or 9 yuan a month. But we are all very satisfied. This money is not a small amount. We can even buy 60 kilograms of pork!

Jian Lu wanted to laugh when she heard the conversion. She said that nine yuan was not a lot, but if you think of it as 60 kilograms of pork, it was indeed attractive.

"Don't laugh. Our work is not as good as your writing, but at least it can help supplement the family income."

"Yes, it's good."

As she spoke, Feng Xiuhui mentioned the neighbors who had recently moved in across from her house, and that the two-story blue brick building opposite was now full again.

"Do you know? Something big happened in the Wang family?"

Jian Lu didn't go out today. She took a nap in the afternoon to avoid the hottest time before coming here. She didn't hear anything serious happened, so she asked curiously, "What happened?"

"Something happened to Wang Jin and Qian Hongzhuo."

These two? Are they related?

"What happened to them?"

"I heard it." Feng Xiuhui heard it from other sisters-in-law in the family compound. Some people are said to have heard the Wang family's movements with their own ears. "The two were having sex at home and were caught by the Wang family."

"Ah?" Jian Lu was really surprised when she heard this.

After all, having affairs with men and women in this era is very dangerous. Even if you are a couple, you have to be aware of the consequences. How could these two people, who have no official status, have an affair in the Wang family?

"Qian Hongzhuo is not afraid that Deputy Brigade Commander Wang will take him..."

"I guess he is sure of it. Deputy Brigade Commander Wang's daughter loves him to death. She is so obsessed with him that she is crying out that she is his and wants to marry him!"

"Did the Wang family agree?"

"What can we do if she disagrees? We can prosecute Qian Hongzhuo for hooliganism, but Wang Jin will never agree to it. Besides, her innocence is gone. Even if she is the daughter of the deputy brigade commander, how good a husband can she find in the future? It's difficult. It will be embarrassing if this matter gets out."

Jian Lu nodded, realizing that the Wang family would most likely compromise.

Feng Xiuhui said firmly, "Just wait, there will be a wedding in our courtyard."

After collecting the materials, Jian Lu went home to write. After finishing an article praising the glory of labor and the wise decisions of the army, she remembered something and wrote a letter to Qian Jingjing.

After all, this person said that he wanted to hear Qian Hongzhuo's jokes.

It was a week later when Qian Jingjing, who was in the army art troupe, received Jian Lu's letter. At that time, she was waiting for Hu Zhenghao's letter.

This time, the two of them were in a confused relationship. Qian Jingjing asked him to agree to an "unequal treaty", and the two began to communicate.

Hu Zhenghao strictly abided by his promise and sent a letter once a month, and each letter did not exceed two pages.

On the contrary, Comrade Qian Jingjing couldn't stand the reply in the fourth month, so she took the initiative to propose changing it to two letters a month. By the sixth month, it was changed to three letters a month.

The reason was simple: Comrade Hu Zhenghao never finished his words at the end of every letter he sent, leaving a big suspense there, which made Qian Jingjing feel anxious.

Take the most recent letter for example. When Qian Jingjing received it and read it, she saw at the end that it said that Hu Zhenghao went to the county town to buy something and sent a letter to her. As a result, he met a kidnapper on the way. He followed them and happened to run into someone kidnapping children. There were many of them and they even carried knives.

And then, it was gone!

Qian Jingjing was distressed. What happened next? Was the kidnapper caught? Was the child rescued? And, was anyone injured?

Want to know? Still have to wait? The next time Comrade Hu Zhenghao sends a letter should be ten days later.

Qian Jingjing happened to have a rare two-day vacation recently, so she decided not to wait and go directly to Shanghai Island.

Holding the letter sent by Jian Lu, Qian Jingjing glanced at it quickly on the road. When she saw Qian Hongzhuo's name, her heart was no longer moved. She only sighed silently, "Wang Jin is such a fool!"

When the ferry arrived at the island, Qian Jingjing went straight to the family building. She knew that her aunt and uncle had already moved and it was not too far from Jian Lu's house.

At this time, there should be no one at home, but she didn't have the key to her new house, so she wanted to go to Jian Lu's house to rest for a while.

Who knew that I would meet Wang Jin while walking.

Wang Jin still has hostility towards Qian Jingjing, her love rival. After all, Qian Hongzhuo, who is about to become her husband, initially claimed that he liked Qian Jingjing.

How could Wang Jin bear it? Now that she can finally marry Qian Hongzhuo, she just hopes that Qian Jingjing will never appear in front of her again.

"Why are you here?" Wang Jin was like a hedgehog with its fur standing on end, and instantly became alert.

"You built this academy? Why can't I come?" Qian Jingjing didn't tolerate her and retorted directly.

"You!" Wang Jin's face flushed, he pointed at Qian Jingjing and raised his voice, "Don't come to our place, especially, don't try to snatch Hong Zhuo from me!"

Grab the Qianhongzhuo?

Qian Jingjing felt that this man was really out of his mind. She sneered, turned her back to the light, looked at Wang Jin seriously and said, "Comrade Wang Jin, stop daydreaming all day long! Why should I compete with you for that bastard? Only you think of him as a treasure! I have a partner. My partner is a thousand times, ten thousand times better than Qian Hongzhuo. He is excellent, capable, kind and sincere. He is the Hu Zhenghao in the army! So don't stare at me and bother me!"

After Qian Jingjing finished her bold words, she turned around and was about to continue walking, but who knew that when she turned around, she saw several people standing not far behind her!

My uncle, aunt, Hu Zhenghao, and Cheng Zheng and Jian Lu.

Several people looked at her with different expressions, and Qian Jingjing's head was about to explode!

What did you just say?

As soon as Commander Song closed the door, Qian Honglian was the first to get excited. What did she just hear?

My niece has found a boyfriend, and it’s Xiao Hu!

Very good! Xiao Hu is a good comrade, and she and Song Zhaokang both agree on this.

Song Zhaokang sat on the sofa, looking at Hu Zhenghao and Qian Jingjing sitting on his left and right, and laughed, "Tell me, when did it happen? You two actually secretly dated without telling your family members?"

Qian Jingjing was feeling sad, how come someone heard it?

She didn't say anything and glanced at Hu Zhenghao opposite her.

Hu Zhenghao was very calm, "Song Lu, it happened last year. Jingjing and I were going to try to find a partner."

"It's fine if you're dating someone, why would you give it a try?" Song Lu was quite satisfied. On one side was his niece, and on the other was the son of an old comrade from the Qian family, who was also a soldier in his own unit. "I'll see about notifying your dad and telling him when the two families can meet and set a date for the wedding."

Qian Jingjing: !!!

"Uncle! So soon?" Qian Jingjing was not prepared for such a thing at all. How come the fact that she was dating someone was suddenly exposed, and they were going to set a date for the wedding?

Even though she was the one who exposed the matter, she was still afraid.

"What? Do you still want to act like a hooligan? If you date someone but don't get married, what kind of person are you dating?" Qian Honglian did not stand on her niece's side this time.

Cheng Zheng and Jian Lu next to them almost couldn't hold back their laughter.

The two of them originally came to Song Lu's house with Hu Zhenghao to have a free meal, but halfway through the journey they heard Comrade Qian Jingjing reveal her love affair.

Qian Jingjing wanted to keep it a secret from her family, but who would have thought that she would blow herself up?!

"How am I being a hooligan?" Qian Jingjing muttered, and said to her aunt, "Aunt, I just felt it too fast."

"What's so fast?" Song Zhaokang didn't understand why young people nowadays were so irresponsible. "You guys have been dating since last year, how many months have you been together this year? It's already July! Others are so fast, they've already gotten married by now."

Qian Honglian knew about Qian Jingjing's boyfriend, and there was no way she could keep it a secret from her family. "Let's put it this way. You can discuss the marriage with your parents, but I have to inform them about this."

I hope nothing goes wrong in the future and my good intentions as an aunt are ruined.

Qian Jingjing was unable to prevent her relationship from being exposed, and she and Hu Zhenghao went completely underground and above the surface, even directly exposed to the sun!

After dinner, Qian Jingjing sent Jian Lu out and walked in front of her, muttering to herself, while Cheng Zheng and Hu Zhenghao followed behind.

"I am so wronged. I haven't been to the island for almost half a year, and I was exposed as soon as I came. It's really infuriating."

The more Jian Lu listened, the more she wanted to laugh. "You're still praising Political Commissar Hu, praising his excellence and ability. Wow, I never thought that you normally look down on him, but actually think of him this way in your heart!"

"Oh my!" Qian Jingjing's face turned red after hearing what Jian Lu said. She directly reached out to pinch her waist, focusing on her itchy flesh. However, Jian Lu was prepared and dodged it directly.

"I did that to piss off Wang Jin. If you make fun of me again, I won't send you off!"

"That's great." Cheng Zheng took a few steps forward and stood beside his wife. "We can go for a walk and talk."

Qian Jingjing looked at Jian Lu's brilliant smile and felt even more embarrassed. But with Cheng Zheng around, how could she touch her!

"Jingjing." Hu Zhenghao called Qian Jingjing gently, suddenly bringing her back to reality.

Looking back, Hu Zhenghao was looking at her tenderly. Qian Jingjing recalled what she had said to Wang Jin before, and her face turned red as if blood was about to drip out.

She now wished she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

"Don't worry. If you don't want to get married for the time being, I'll talk to your dad."

Unexpectedly, Hu Zhenghao didn't mention that at all and only cared about getting married for his own sake.

"real?"

"Yes, really." Hu Zhenghao looked at her, and his eyes only allowed this beautiful figure to remain. "I won't force you."

The blush on Qian Jingjing's face gradually faded, and she finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Okay, thank you then. By the way, did you catch the kidnapper you mentioned in your last letter? Did you rescue the kidnapped child? And, and, they had knives, you weren't hurt, were you?"

When she said the last sentence, Qian Jingjing seemed to look Hu Zhenghao up and down seriously, but because of the military uniform, nothing could be seen.

Hu Zhenghao curled his lips and said, "They caught him, the child was saved, and I was not injured."

Qian Jingjing: “…”

How come you are so brief when we meet? Not as vivid as you described in the letter.

"Please explain it in detail. How did you catch them? Are they powerful?"

The two of them walked out as the sun set. Along the way, one asked questions and the other answered them, and it was quite lively.

——

It was a hot summer day, and the weather was sultry. Jian Lu was enjoying the news that Qian Jingjing's love affair had been exposed. She heard that her family had informed her that the two of them must go back together during their next vacation. Qian Jingjing was so scared that she wanted to run away immediately.

Jian Lu was watching with great interest, and could only sigh that it was quite interesting for the two of them to be talking about a partner. Turning around, she saw the lady in a pretty little skirt spinning around in the yard.

Jian Lu also made a blue and white dress for Shuangshuang, with a lotus leaf collar and a puffy skirt, which looked so cute when she wore it.

Especially when the breeze blows, the skirt will flutter, making the couple look extremely beautiful.

She was carrying the cross-body bag made of white cloth, and had two little pigtails on her hair, looking like a pretty little bun.

Shuangshuang loves to wear this little skirt and run around these days. She even wants to show her little skirt to her brothers and sisters, which makes Juanjuan very happy.

Cheng Hehua even asked Jian Lu to help her design a little skirt for Juanjuan to wear.

Not only children, but also the trend outside has started to change this summer, with brightly colored and fashionable clothes appearing on the streets one after another.

There are more and more lesbians wearing bras and leather shoes on the streets.

The family courtyard is no exception.

The daughter of the chief's family wore a Soviet-style red and white plaid blouse, a pair of brown leather shoes, and carried a plaid bag. If the chief's family dares to wear it, what else do we have to be afraid of?

For a time, Bragi became popular again.

Normally, we were used to wearing tops and long trousers that covered our entire bodies tightly, with dull colors and old-fashioned styles. Now, we were suddenly changing into blouses, and everyone was a little uncomfortable.

Jian Lu also went to the department store in the county town and bought two pairs, one was an orange square-necked waisted blouse, and the other was a brown twill plaid maxi skirt. She wore a white Dacron shirt with a lapel on the upper body, and paired it with a pair of black leather shoes, looking very professional.

According to Cui Yuhe, she is almost like a movie star.

This time, Jian Lu originally invited Feng Xiuhui, Cui Yuhe and Cheng Hehua to go shopping. However, Feng Xiuhui felt that those blouses were not suitable for her, and Cheng Hehua felt that the blouses were too expensive, so in the end, only she and Cui Yuhe went together.

The two came back from the county department store. Feng Xiuhui was quite curious and came up to see what they bought. The three of them simply went to Jian Lu's house to try on clothes.

There is no such thing as trying on clothes in person these days. You just pick the color and size, make your choice, pay and take it away. Nowadays, ready-made clothes with novel designs are in great demand. It is no exaggeration to say that 99% of them are much better looking than those made at home with pieces of cloth.

Feng Xiuhui looked at the braid bought by Jian Lu and Cui Yuhe. The color was so bright and beautiful.

Jian Lu was the first to change into Bragi.

She was wearing an orange-red blouse with a waist-hugging design that outlined her graceful figure. Jian Lu was already fair-skinned with a slender neck, and the round-neck blouse made her look more elegant. The hem of her skirt fluttered as she turned, like a beautiful butterfly dancing.

"Lulu, you look so beautiful in this blouse." Cui Yuhe knew that Jian Lu was fair-skinned and beautiful, and she was used to seeing her wearing a top and trousers like everyone else. But today she suddenly changed into such a fashionable blouse. She suddenly felt that her previous clothes really concealed her pretty looks.

In the mirror, Jian Lu has an oval face and delicate features, like a distant mountain covered with dark clouds, or dotted with cherry blossoms. Paired with a brightly colored blouse, she is truly an eye-catcher.

Jian Lu was very satisfied with the skirt. In fact, the quality of the clothes in the past was very good. The neckline, cuffs and waist were all very delicately cut. Moreover, such a simple and elegant style would never go out of style. She vaguely remembered that some big-name skirts in later generations were similar to this one.

Fashion is such a cycle.

"You should try it too!" Jian Lu couldn't wait to see hers.

Feng Xiuhui glanced at Jian Lu, a hint of surprise flashed across her eyes, and she urged Cui Yuhe to change her clothes.

Cui Yuhe changed into a newly bought white skirt with black polka dots. The hem had overlapping wavy hems. It looked very trendy and when she wore it, she looked like a mermaid.

"Sister Yuhe, this dress of yours looks so beautiful." Jian Lu felt that Cui Yuhe was suitable for this kind of outfit, which was stable yet with some novel designs.

"Really? It fits me well too!" Jian Lu helped Cui Yuhe choose this skirt. It was her first time to buy ready-made skirts in a department store. She was completely overwhelmed and didn't know what to choose. "You really have good taste."

The two tried the newly bought bragi and were very satisfied. They turned around and began to persuade Feng Xiuhui.

"Xiuhui, you should buy one too. This bra can be worn for many years. Look at its quality and workmanship, it's so delicate. We have to wear something that looks good and makes us feel comfortable." Cui Yuhe raised her head and chest, as if she was excited again.

Jian Lu knew Sister Xiuhui liked it by looking at her eyes. The reluctance in her eyes could not deceive anyone. "Why don't you try mine. If it looks good, you can buy one too?"

Cui Yuhe turned around and urged Feng Xiuhui. Feng Xiuhui was originally reluctant to spend a lot of money to buy a pair of bras. Firstly, she was reluctant to do so, and secondly, she was worried that she would not look good in it. She was used to wearing long pants on weekdays, and would definitely not feel comfortable wearing a skirt suddenly.

"I..." Feng Xiuhui picked up the second piece of blouse that Jian Lu handed over to her. It was a brown-red twill plaid skirt, paired with a white dacron shirt with a lapel.

"Try it now!"

Jian Lu and Cui Yuhe asked her to try it, and Feng Xiuhui made up her mind and changed her clothes immediately.

"Wow, this is incredible! It's so beautiful."

"Sister Xiuhui, go buy one."

"No, no!" Feng Xiuhui always felt that these blouses were too fashionable and she couldn't wear them. She looked at herself in the mirror and felt very unfamiliar. She quickly changed out of the blouse and put on her own short-sleeved trousers. "I'm going home first. I still have to cook. Let's talk about it later."

But before leaving, he took another look at the bragi on Jian Lu and Cui Yuhe.

=

Cheng Zheng was busy with official duties today and did not go home for dinner, but ate directly in the army cafeteria.

When it was already dark, I would go home under the stars and the moon.

At this point, the young lady was already sitting on the bed playing with her grandmother. Cheng Zheng first went into the room to check on his mother and the young lady.

I heard the girl sitting on the bed chattering, and then she saw her father and called out "Dad" loudly, as if all the fatigue of the past few days was gone with this call.

"Dad, you're back. It's so late." The little girl seemed a little dissatisfied. She was not awake when her father left in the morning, and she hadn't played with her all day. Now he was back just when he was going to bed.

"When dad is done with his work, I'll take you out to play, okay? I'll pick coconuts for you and take you to the beach to pick up shells."
