"But you don't believe me... so what can we do?"
Just when the atmosphere was so heated it was about to explode.
Suddenly, a rhythmic and loud knocking sounded at the door.
"Thump, thump, thump."
The two were startled and instinctively let go of each other's hands.
Qin Ye looked at Su Tang, whose face was as red as a ripe tomato, with a slight blush still lingering on her ears.
I'm in a very good mood.
"Let's go take a look."
Qin Ye took Su Tang's hand and they went to open the door together.
Upon opening the door, they found Wang Fengxing, the logistics officer, standing outside, followed by several young soldiers.
"Commander Qin, Comrade Su Tang, congratulations on moving!" Wang Fengxing said with a smile, "The basic furniture issued by the army has been delivered to you."
The soldiers chuckled and hurriedly carried things into the house.
A hard wooden bed, a set of table and chairs painted in military green, and a simple, bare wardrobe.
This is all my possessions.
"Thank you all for your hard work." Su Tang smiled and took out a handful of White Rabbit milk candies from her pocket, giving each of them a few. She then went to brew a few cups of tea. "It's cold, have a cup of tea to warm yourself up."
The young soldiers immediately beamed with joy and thanked them repeatedly.
"Comrade Su Tang, you're too kind!"
"That's right, that's what we do!"
Looking at Su Tang, Wang Fengxing felt admiration. Look at this young lady from Shanghai, she knows how to handle things.
Not only was she completely down-to-earth, but she was also as beautiful as an angel. No wonder she was able to melt the iceberg that was their Commander Qin.
After the logistics department soldiers left, the room suddenly felt empty and deserted.
Su Tang directed Qin Ye to move the bed into the south-facing bedroom and place the table and chairs in the living room near the window.
She had already gone through the renovation plan in her mind. In her eyes, these simple pieces of furniture were just a skeleton; she would have to fill them with flesh and blood herself.
Looking at the rough furniture and then at Su Tang's delicate face, Qin Ye felt that they didn't match at all.
"Tangtang, just make do for a few days."
"Once I get some good timber, I'll make it for you every day after get off work. I promise to make everything on the blueprints, one by one."
He spoke as if he were guaranteeing the completion of a military mission, with the same seriousness and earnestness.
Su Tang felt a warmth in her heart, and a smile bloomed on her face.
"Alright, I'm waiting, Qin the carpenter."
"I'll go to the warehouse and see if there's any usable timber."
Watching his decisive and efficient departure, Su Tang's smile deepened.
This man is a man of action.
As soon as the door closed, Su Tang immediately locked it, turning the entire house into her own private kingdom.
"Ants moving house, begin!"
With a thought, she flashed into the space.
In the bedroom, the bare, hard wooden bed was instantly covered by a soft, thick, top-quality cotton mattress.
Next came fluffy down pillows and a silky comforter with a pale moon-white cover embroidered with delicate patterns.
The once bare windows were now covered with a heavy, dark green velvet curtain, perfectly blocking out the outside view and the cold air.
She even took out a soft, long-pile rug from her storage space and laid it by the bed so that she wouldn't get cold walking barefoot.
In just a few minutes, the bedroom, which was originally as simple as a military barracks, was transformed into a warm and stylish space.
These things would be considered outrageous luxuries in this day and age, but Su Tang had her own explanation.
—The dowry of an all-powerful mother.
In addition, the room is a private space, so as long as it is not seen by outsiders, everything is fine.
She had just finished setting things up when Qin Ye returned, pushing a small cart full of timber.
