Chapter 19 Mutation



On the other side, Chen Yun did not dare to delay carrying such valuable gold jewelry. She carried the bag all the way home and only breathed a sigh of relief after entering the house.

Zhang Meixiang was moving cotton wool and when she saw her come back, she asked excitedly, "Yunyun, have you bought everything?"

"I bought it, I bought it, Mom, come and have a look!" Chen Yun took out three small red envelopes from her purse. Her three pieces of gold jewelry were each in a red square bag that was one-third the size of her palm. She unfastened the hidden clasp and took them out one by one to show Zhang Meixiang.

Originally, her daughter was always cute and had a very girlish look. After wearing these jewels, she looked more noble. Zhang Meixiang examined them carefully and said, "They are beautiful. We will wear them at the wedding. Now they are locked in the desk."

Chen Yun reluctantly took off the jewelry and put it away. As a girl, who doesn't like these things? She looked at the mirror again, stretched out her hand to make the orchid finger gesture, and smiled foolishly.

"Yunyun, come out and sew a quilt with mom."

Chen Yun locked the drawer carefully and put the key under the cushion before leaving. At this time, Zhang Meixiang was putting on the quilt cover and sewing it on, because these quilts were given to Chen Yun as a dowry when she got married. The quilt covers were all new satin, with a white base and satin of various colors.

"Mom, let me sew this."

The rouge-red quilt cover made the fair-skinned daughter look very charming. For a moment, Zhang Meixiang didn't want her daughter to get married again, but it was just a thought. Her daughter would get married when she grew up, and she would eventually live in someone else's home. They wanted to keep their daughter for the rest of her life, but they couldn't take care of her for the rest of her life.

Their family prepared a total of two 8-jin cotton quilts, four 6-jin cotton quilts, and six 3-jin mattresses. In addition, there were two duck down quilts given by the second aunt and blankets and towel blankets bought by Zhang Meixiang. All these things filled the guest room.

Because Chen Shi's wedding was also in Leshan, a few days earlier than Chen Yun's, Zhang Meixiang, the sister-in-law, had to go over from time to time to help. After work, Chen Yun took her father's car to go over and take a look at Chen Shi's wedding dowry to see if she wanted to buy anything.

"Oh my god, we need to prepare the urine bucket and mahjong..."

Chen Shi raised his eyebrows: "Sister Yun, my family has prepared a motorcycle for you to go over. Don't you want to buy a motorcycle?" Nowadays, it is very popular in Jiangcheng for women to give motorcycles as dowry. Motorcycles are not too expensive and most families can still afford it.

But considering the actual situation, Chen Yun shook her head: "Think about it, I will be accompanying the army. Who will ride the motorcycle if I buy one? Besides, they have cars at home, so they don't need the motorcycle."

Yes, yes, yes, who doesn't know that you, Chen Yun, have a rich husband? Chen Shi rolled her eyes. She really didn't expect that her sister could secretly hook up with such a man, and a military officer at that. If he was a poor soldier, she wouldn't be envious, but he was a military officer, and a battalion commander at that. Thinking about it, she felt that Chen Yun was lucky.

The rice cooked by the second aunt Zhong Juxiang tasted bad, so Chen Sijun bought some halal chicken and pig ears and cooked them. Zhang Meixiang helped to steam the rice. Chen Sijun lived in the suburbs and built his own house, so it was very convenient to pull up the wedding tent. He also asked Chen Sipeng: "Brother, when Yunyun gets married, where are you going to hold the wedding banquet?"

"Oh, let's just go to the restaurant. I've already decided on the menu. It's Kowloon Restaurant, and you can just come over when the time comes. I don't want to make any more trouble. If we do it like we did in my hometown, we'll be in big trouble." In fact, they could still set up the wine downstairs in the community building, but they would have to borrow tables and chairs, and hire someone to cook, which was really troublesome.

Chen Sijun smiled and said, "This year, both of our families have completed their mission. Both of our sons and daughters have married well, and we will have wine to drink during the New Year next year."

People in Jiangcheng like to call daughters of the royal family "drunkards" because they will buy wine for their fathers after they get married.

"yes."

**

While the entire Chen family was preparing for the wedding as planned, Chen Yun was preparing to work the night shift.

Chen Yun, who has been working the night shift for many years, is really fed up with it, not only psychologically but also physically. For example, her hair used to be shiny black, but now she counted and found that she has twenty or thirty white hairs. Her menstruation is also often delayed. It would be great if she could change her job if she followed the army.

All she was thinking about was the best things for following the army, but she didn't expect that she would be dealt a heavy blow before she even started.

It turned out that Liu Qiao had sent a telegram saying that his original wedding leave might be shortened. After much calculation, he could only come back to attend his own wedding and had to leave by train that night.

This meant that Chen Yun would get on the train after the wedding banquet on the night of her wedding. Zhang Meixiang frowned, "How can that be possible? Does our Yunyun have to go with her?"

Feng Yu smiled and said, "Yes, Yunyun is going to join the army, so she must go with you. Otherwise, you can pack your luggage first, and when Liu Qiao comes back after attending the wedding banquet, let his father take it over."

"What are you saying? A lot of relatives from our hometown are coming over, and they're all planning to stay overnight and meet Liu Qiao the next day. Her father has already booked a guesthouse." What Zhang Meixiang was really angry about was not this, but that her daughter didn't get to enjoy the beauty of her newlywed life and had to rush through the wedding.

Chen Yun was not very happy either. People only get married once in their lives, and who wouldn't want to enter the marriage hall with the blessings of relatives and friends, and then enjoy a wonderful wedding night, and then go back to her parents' home with her husband to make her parents happy. But in the end, this happened. Who wouldn't be happy no matter who it was?

Liu Qiao, who was far away from the army, was also furious, but he understood his responsibilities. The Fifth Battalion was a new battalion with new recruits. The training of the new recruits had not yet been completed, and there would be a battle competition among the battalions. He had to wait until the competition was over before he could return. After training in the evening, Liu Qiao slammed the door. He had now moved into the new family building, and many family members of the battalion-level and deputy battalion-level cadres of the regiment had also moved in.

Chen Dafen, who lived in 301 next door, heard the door slam and saw her three-year-old son was frightened. She quickly hugged him in her arms and said unhappily, "Yongbing, who lives next door?"

Chen Dafen had just come here yesterday. She was the commander of the Second Battalion and the wife of Hu Yongbing, Liu Qiao's former superior. She was about 30 years old and had come here on her own, saying that she had had a quarrel with her family. When she came, even Hu Yongbing was startled.

Hu Yongbing thought for a moment and said, "The person who lives here is Liu Qiao, the commander of the Fifth Battalion. He was supposed to go back to get married next month, but unfortunately there will be actual combat next month, which is related to the honor of each regiment. I don't know if his wedding can be held. Is that why he is so unhappy?"
