If nothing else, just because Liu Ruonan and Zhuang Sheng valued him, he should work harder. He didn't have any special abilities, the only thing he could do was to do more hard work for Liu Ruonan and take the blame for her when she was in danger.
Amidst the laughter and joy, perhaps because they were too tired, the three of them gradually fell asleep.
The next day, when I woke up, it was almost noon.
Gao Shanshan screamed, waking up both of them who were sleeping soundly.
Liu Ruonan jumped up from the bed, looked at Gao Shanshan and asked worriedly, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"
"Sister, it's already noon." Gao Shanshan looked at the newly bought alarm clock placed on the bedside.
This is a gift from Liu Ruonan to Gao Shanshan, saying that she would use this alarm clock to wake her up after school starts. Gao Shanshan loves this alarm clock very much.
Liu Ruonan checked the time. It was indeed getting late. Perhaps she was just too tired to have slept until this hour.
Just as I was about to speak, I heard Chen Lei knocking on the door outside, and his anxious voice came.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
"It's okay! Brother, I just went to bed too late." Gao Shanshan said to the door apologetically.
Chen Lei felt relieved after hearing what Gao Shanshan said.
Gao Shanshan and Liu Ruonan also got up in a hurry. It seems like there are a lot of things to do recently!
The bedroom has not been tidied up yet, the goods in the shop in front have not been put in place, and there are still many things to be organized in the kitchen and bathroom.
Although they had already bought all the kitchen utensils, they hadn't bought any vegetables or staple foods yet. Cooking in the kitchen now didn't seem practical. To be honest, after Liu Ruonan had saved the money for Fulu, she didn't have much left. If they continued to squander it, their future would be very difficult.
Liu Ruonan found a piece of old newspaper left over from the renovations, spread it on the ground, and sat down. She looked at Chen Lei and said, "Brother, let's not go out to eat today. Let's go to the next street and buy some buns!"
Gao Shanshan and Chen Lei were both sensible and naturally understood. Then Chen Lei took the money and went to the street next door to buy two steamed buns. The three of them sat on the ground and finished their simple but satisfying lunch. After that, they entered a busy state again.
In one afternoon, the three of them cleaned their bedrooms and tidied up the kitchen and bathroom.
The living room can only be left empty for now. I will buy a sofa or something when I have more money!
After the whole house is organized, it looks clean and tidy, and there is a warm atmosphere everywhere.
They are extremely satisfied with their new home. After all, it is the result of their hard work.
A few days later, the shop was completely set up: Walkmans were placed on one shelf, VCRs on another, and cassettes and other items on another.
Everything is arranged in an orderly manner, which makes it look very neat at a glance. Moreover, if you want to find any goods, you can find them quickly. It looks clear at a glance.
There was no news of Zhuang Sheng's return. Although Liu Ruonan had been overwhelmed by some matters in the store these days and had no time to think about Zhuang Sheng's affairs, after she calmed down, she began to feel a little worried.
At first, Liu Ruonan thought Zhuang Sheng was just an ordinary soldier. Since there was no war, serving in the army wasn't a big deal. However, in the second half of her previous life, she gradually understood from Zhuang Sheng's words that he was no ordinary soldier.
The army would occasionally send him on special missions. Furthermore, each mission was extremely dangerous. This was why Zhuang Sheng was nearly paralyzed last time and couldn't stand up again.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Gao Shanshan looked at Liu Ruonan who seemed to be thinking about something and asked in a low voice.
I was very happy to see the store I built was finally completed, but when I thought of Zhuang Sheng, I felt a little heavy.
"It's okay. I was thinking that once your brother comes back, we can open the business."
"The date hasn't been set yet?" Suddenly, a familiar voice was heard. Liu Ruonan turned her head and saw Zhuang Sheng wearing a military uniform, standing upright at the door of the store.
There was a smile on the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were full of longing as he looked at Liu Ruonan.
Liu Ruonan's heavy heart finally relaxed instantly. A smile slowly blossomed on the corners of her mouth. What should have been a happy thing was actually soaked with tears.
"Brother Zhuang Sheng..."
Liu Ruonan called out softly, but saw Gao Shanshan had already rushed over and hugged Zhuang Sheng, shouting excitedly: "Brother, you're back."
Men and women in this era are more reserved in their love, unlike modern people who express their longing through hugs and kisses.
Even if Liu Ruonan and Zhuang Sheng miss each other now, they can only suppress it deep in their hearts. Perhaps this is due to traditional feudal thinking? People in this era are not very open-minded.
In fact, Liu Ruonan also wanted to rush over and give Zhuang Sheng a hug. But she didn't want to be an outlier in this era. Living in this era, we must follow the pace of this era.
Zhuang Sheng rubbed Gao Shanshan's head and kept smiling.
Chen Lei also came over, looked at Zhuang Sheng and laughed, "Zhuang Sheng, you're back."
"Brother, you have worked hard these days." Zhuang Sheng looked around. After the shop was neatly arranged, it looked quite presentable.
Chen Lei's hard work was undoubtedly part of this. Finally, Zhuang Sheng once again fixed his gaze on his young wife. This woman was only eighteen years old. However, she possessed a long-term vision, a business acumen that others could not imagine, and a perseverance that others could only dream of.
Setting up this shop required both effort and time. For an eighteen-year-old girl, it was truly a monumental undertaking.
For this, Zhuang Sheng felt extremely proud of his little wife.
Liu Ruonan briefly introduced everything about the store to Zhuang Sheng, and then took him to see the residence in the backyard.
When Zhuang Sheng first came, he saw only an empty room with nothing in it. But this time, it was clearly like a warm and comfortable little home.
The smile on Zhuang Sheng's lips never faded. Liu Ruonan really made him proud.
Originally, the couple lived together, with one taking care of the household and the other the outside. However, Zhuang Sheng was always in the army, so Liu Ruonan was usually unable to intervene or help with anything she wanted to do. In fact, he still felt guilty about this.
But fortunately, his wife was a capable woman. Even when he was not around, she could manage everything well. Zhuang Sheng was very relieved about this.
He always believed that their lives would get better and better.
