Finally, the large hand picked up the letter, and a moment later, a deep, pleasant laugh came from inside the room.
The military uniform with four pockets made the young man look even more sunny and handsome, and at this moment, the corners of his lips were upturned and his eyes and eyebrows were full of smiles.
A glint of light occasionally flashed in his smiling eyes.
He smoothed the letter out and placed it on the desk. He took out a piece of paper, picked up his pen, and paused.
His eyes shone even brighter, and no one knew what he was thinking, but he picked up his pen and began to write a letter.
His upturned smile throughout showed that he was in a good mood.
After finishing writing the letter, he carefully put it back into the envelope.
Looking at the two letters in front of him, the young man stood up and left with them.
As soon as he stepped out, someone greeted him.
"Battalion Commander, do you need to mail a letter? I can help you."
"No need! Just tell the commander that I need to go to the island."
The soldier scratched his head, and his squad leader smiled at him.
Before he could react, his battalion commander had vanished in a flash.
Only the lowly soldier remained, silently grumbling.
Has something big happened?
After mailing the letter, the person who sent it went to the island with another letter in his hand, a duck in his left hand, and a chicken in his right.
It was several days later when Jiang Wenwan received the letter again.
Looking at the letter the postman gave her, Jiang Wenwan opened it and found that it was indeed sent by her grandparents.
However, the person who wrote the letter was not her grandparents, but another person named Zhou Dunzi.
Jiang Wenwan looked at the letter in her hand, trying hard to suppress the twitching corners of her mouth.
The letter said that her grandparents were doing well and that she shouldn't worry.
Knowing she had broken off her engagement, they introduced her to another guy!
This letter was written on behalf of the grandparents by a man named Zhou Dunzi, because at the bottom of the letter was a simple self-introduction.
Hello Comrade Jiang:
My name is Zhou Dunzi, and I'm the person your grandparents introduced to you.
I wrote this letter on behalf of the two elderly people. I am a squad leader in the secret service.
I live in Xijing Hutong in Beijing. I am 20 years old, 1.85 meters tall, weigh 150 kilograms, do not smoke or drink, and have no bad habits.
I genuinely want to be your girlfriend. I know you're currently working as an educated youth in the countryside, contributing to the construction of a new rural area for our country.
The things from last time were prepared for you by me and the two elders.
I hope you like it.
My address is on the envelope; you can write to me anytime.
Sincerely yours
salute
Zhou Dunzi, April 21, 1975.
Jiang Wenwan gasped in surprise after reading the letter.
What's wrong?
Does she have a boyfriend again?
Zhou Dunzi?
Jiang Wenwan couldn't help but laugh. Should she thank her grandparents for finding her a soldier who was also 185 cm tall and neither too fat nor too thin?
She tried to imagine it, and could only picture a tall man standing in front of her, who was only 1.55 meters tall, or rather, 1.6 meters tall.
I simply can't imagine what the face looks like.
"Wanwan, who wrote you a letter?"
Look at how wide you're grinning! You can even see your back teeth!
Jiang Wenwan quickly put the letter away and put it in her pocket, or rather, she put it in her spatial storage.
If it falls out and someone sees it, I'd be in big trouble.
"It's nothing, it's a letter my grandparents wrote to me."
I'll cook a few dishes; the villagers worked hard helping build the house."
Yes, their house has already started construction, and it's almost finished in about ten days.
She plans to finish today, so she intends to cook something delicious to treat everyone.
"Okay, I'll help you start the fire. It'll be a good opportunity to use the new stove and see if it's smoking."
I knew she was referring to the kang (heated brick bed) that had been laid out and left to air out for a few days; it should be ready to be heated today.
Zhang Weiguo scratched his head sheepishly and said with a smile:
"I was just about to tell you to light a fire and see if there's any smoke coming out of the kang (heated brick bed)."
If so, we can repair it for you.
"OK!"
As Jiang Wenwan spoke, she began to cook, as there were very few vegetables available at this time.
Stir-fried cabbage with pork, stewed radish with pork, and stewed cabbage with glass noodles and pork.
There is also white rice.
At this time of year, being able to eat until you're 80% full is already considered excellent; each of them had a large bowl of white rice.
The villagers who came to help naturally ate happily and worked hard.
At this moment, the village chief arrived with an oxcart.
"Shall we eat? This is a young intellectual I picked up today. He'll be working in our brigade from now on. You can make the arrangements as you see fit!"
As soon as the village chief finished speaking, a gasp of surprise rang out in the courtyard.
"Brother Jianguo, you really came down too! That's great! We were even assigned to the same group."
Jiang Wenwan never expected that even after she separated the male and female leads, the two of them would still be able to reunite here.
Did you stick 502 glue on?
Wang Jianguo's smile looked somewhat forced.
He looked at Jiang Wenwan, took a deep breath, and stepped forward to stand in front of her.
"Jiang Wenwan, are you happy to see me?"
I'm telling you, our engagement is off. There's no future for us, so don't waste your energy.
Jiang Wenwan had never been this speechless.
This is even more speechless than when her grandparents introduced her to a potential partner.
Do you have some serious illness?
If you're sick, go see a doctor. You're the one who came all this way to be with me because you coveted my good looks!
I'm telling you, I don't like you anymore. There's no future for us. Forget about it!
Hu Qinghua, who was standing to the side, couldn't bear to listen anymore.
He walked over to Wang Jianguo and stood next to him, then looked at Jiang Wenwan and said:
"Jiang Wenwan, are you mistaken? Wang Jianguo came because of me. What does it have to do with you?"
Wang Jianguo gets furious whenever he sees Jiang Wenwan.
“My going to the countryside was indeed related to her, Jiang Wenwan. I’m asking you, did you help me sign up for the rural assignment?”
Jiang Wenwan, happy!
"Wang Jianguo, are you questioning the competence of the subdistrict office?"
If anyone could just sign someone up, wouldn't that create chaos? Of course, only family members should be allowed to sign up.
"And you're nobody to me, how could I possibly register you?"
"You're still trying to deny it. Officer Wang from the neighborhood committee has come to my house several times to talk to me. Who else could it be but you?"
Jiang Wenwan was secretly overjoyed; she was really good at flapping the wings of this little butterfly.
The original plot was that shortly after the original owner went to the countryside, the male protagonist signed up to join the army.
Then Hu Qinghua started working in the factory, and eventually the two got married. Hu Qinghua then went to join the army.
Now, both of them have been brought here by her, completely deviating from the plot of the book.
Seeing Wang Jianguo angrily questioning her, Jiang Wenwan shrugged and said in a tone that suggested she'd rather die than let someone get away with it:
"If that's what you're saying, then it really is me."
"Oh dear, I just couldn't bear to separate you and Hu Qinghua, so I let you two go to the countryside together. You really don't need to thank me too much."
Wang Jianguo clenched his fists tightly in front of him, staring fiercely at Jiang Wenwan, and growled in a suppressed voice.
"Do you know that my spot for enlisting in the new army was about to be decided, but I ended up being sent to the countryside as an educated youth? You've ruined my future!"
