Lu Li and Miao Xiuying were listening attentively when they heard that Jiang Yan had won the second-class merit.
Miao Xiuying slapped her thigh excitedly and said happily: "It really is a second-class merit medal! That's great, our Xiaoyan's reputation is enough to make my ancestors' graves smoke."
Lu Li also complimented: "Sister-in-law, your vision is really impeccable, and you always make a good judgment."
Jiang Yan was almost flattered. She said embarrassedly, "Keep a low profile, keep a low profile. Isn't this just a coincidence? Who knew there would be an unexpected surprise? The one who worked the hardest was my brother Lu. Is he not injured?"
Lu Xiao shook his head: "I'm in a hurry to see you, I won't let myself get hurt. You go to the room first, I'll go take a shower, so as not to stink you."
He had been outside for a few days, wrapped in an airtight military uniform, sweating profusely, and even smelled like one.
Jiang Yan is still pregnant and is sensitive to smells, so don't make her feel uncomfortable.
The person who was most happy about Lu Xiao's return was Jiang Yan.
She went back to the house and found a loose shirt for Lu Xiao. After throwing it to Lu Xiao, she went to the kitchen to heat up the food!
After Lu Xiao finished washing, he looked at the steaming food on the table, his heart filled with happiness.
Seeing him standing there motionless with a silly smile, Jiang Yan urged him, "Brother Lu, come and eat. I'll shave your beard later. Otherwise, you'll really become an old man. I won't be able to show you around when I take you out. Don't lose my reputation for being a second-class merit."
Lu Xiao then took three or two steps forward. When there was no one around, he hugged Jiang Yan in his arms, smelling the faint fragrance coming from her body, and did not let go.
He sat on a chair, holding Jiang Yan in his arms, his eyes soft, "Well, don't embarrass your wife. I'll go get ready after you finish eating. Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow we'll have a day off, and I'll go to the provincial capital with you to bring back Lu Li's dowry!"
Jiang Yan found a comfortable position and leaned lazily in his arms, "Brother Lu, second brother, why don't we just give the gift money? This dowry is for Lu Li's mental damage compensation for raising the baby. Mom is still here, and it's not my turn to prepare for his wedding. Let's see how the eldest brother's family and Lu Li's family give. Don't stand out too much."
Lu Xiao ate the delicious meal with great satisfaction, and supported it: "According to what you said, we are not a wealthy family. We will give whatever they give us. They only help in emergencies, not in poverty. He is not that kind of person."
They are brothers and they work together at critical moments, but usually they stay away from each other and live their own lives.
It is impossible for him to take out his wife's secret fund just for the sake of face. He has children to raise in the future, and the daily necessities of life don't cost money, right?
Living your own life well is better than anything else, don't say he is selfish.
If you have it, please help out a little. If not, just do it on your own.
Jiang Yan liked Lu Xiao's clarity of purpose. She snapped her fingers and said, "Let's do this. I'll go to the provincial capital tomorrow and visit Xinhua Bookstore. They've urged me three or four times before I finished translating it. I'll just send it to him."
She doesn't have space for a washing machine, refrigerator, etc., so she won't bring any as a dowry.
The main reason is that the price is expensive now and the cost performance is not high, so we will wait until the 1980s to buy it.
Seeing that she was full of energy, Lu Xiao asked her, "How come you have so much endless energy? Then you should translate less books, it's not good for your eyes.
At most I can do more tasks, but I can't put all the burden on you. I am a man, and I must shoulder the responsibility of taking care of you. I didn't marry you to let you help with poverty alleviation."
Jiang Yan said seriously: "No, my man is handsome, has a good figure, is strong, and has emotional value. It's not too much to support you!"
Lu Xiao has a handsome profile, sword-like eyebrows, bright eyes, a deep nose bridge, sexy thin lips, a slender figure, a golden ratio body, and he is loyal in his relationships. Isn't this a king bomb!
As a human being, you can't demand perfection.
Lu Xiao said in a gentle voice: "With a wife to support me, I am definitely the happiest man in the entire military region."
Jiang Yan blinked cutely: "Brother Lu, men know how to act like a spoiled child, and women are desperate to take it. Do you know how to please me?"
Lu Xiao's deep and magnetic voice rang in her ears, "Well! How about in bed?"
His pointed words made Jiang Yan blush, and she hit him coquettishly.
"You just keep thinking about that. Eat quickly. You can't stop talking even when you're eating."
Lu Xiao laughed muffledly, his chest trembling, his eyes so sticky that they seemed to be able to draw threads, which made Jiang Yan's heart tremble.
Lu Xiao ate his meal very slowly and leisurely. If you didn't know him well, you would think he was eating some delicacies from land and sea.
When they came out, Jiang Yan's neck was all pink, but Lu Xiao remained calm.
Lu Li was eating melon. He looked here and there, and always felt that the atmosphere between the two of them was a little strange, but he couldn't put his finger on it.
He handed over a piece of watermelon: "Here, sister-in-law, eat the watermelon."
This is a common fruit on the island. It is crisp, sweet and cheap. If possible, refrigerate it in the refrigerator for half an hour, then take it out and eat it to relieve heat and refresh yourself.
Lu Xiao took it and put it aside: "Your sister-in-law is pregnant, don't let her eat these cold fruits, otherwise she will have diarrhea."
Lu Li stuck out his tongue, and he obviously realized what was happening. He said in annoyance, "Sorry, sister-in-law, I'll make you some red dates and white fungus soup."
As he said that, he went to the kitchen to busy himself again. Lu Yan tactfully went back to the house, and suddenly there were only two people left in the yard.
Jiang Yan pointed to the empty space on the side and said, "Brother Lu, can you put up a flower stand for me here? And put a table there. When the weather gets cooler, we can enjoy the sea breeze and eat hot pot. How comfortable it is!"
Lu Xiao estimated it and nodded, "I'll call Song Jingfeng and Lin Yun to go up the mountain to chop wood in a few days. It will be built for you in half a day. If you need anything else, tell Brother Lu."
