Tang family.
The door was open. When Gu Ye came in, Political Commissar Tang stretched his head to look behind him. Not seeing Jiang Yue and Ning Ning, he asked, "Gu, why did you come upstairs alone? You didn't even wait for your sister-in-law!"
Gu Ye said: "Jiang Yue is not feeling well due to motion sickness, I asked her to rest at home."
"Oh, I see!" Political Commissar Tang knew that Gu Ye was going to the provincial military district for a meeting today, and that Jiang Yue and Ning Ning were also taking a ride to the provincial capital. He didn't say anything more and turned to introduce Secretary Tang to Gu Ye.
"Come here, Gu, let me introduce you to this guy, the village party secretary from my hometown. Brother, this is the head of our regiment, Gu, whom I mentioned to you!"
When Secretary Tang heard that the young man was the head of the regiment, he was so nervous that he was at a loss. His wrinkled face was full of restraint, "Head of the regiment, Gu!"
In the eyes of Party Secretary Tang, their village had produced a Political Commissar Tang, who was already a very high-ranking official. Now he saw a regiment commander. He subconsciously thought that the regiment commander was an even higher-ranking official than the political commissar, and he immediately became trembling with fear.
"Hello, brother Secretary!" Gu Ye heard from Political Commissar Tang yesterday that someone from his hometown had come. When he saw Secretary Tang, he greeted him warmly, took a few steps forward, and stretched out his hands to shake hands with Secretary Tang.
"Hello! Hello!" Secretary Tang became even more nervous now. He rubbed his hands on his clothes quickly, then stretched out his hand and shook hands with Gu Ye.
After taking their seats, Gu Ye started chatting with Secretary Tang, "Are you used to living here, Secretary?"
"Get used to it! Get used to it! The conditions here are much better than those in our village. It's the first time in my life that I live in a big building!" Seeing that this young man with a high position did not have airs and was very easy-going, Secretary Tang gradually became less nervous.
Political Commissar Tang is in charge of political work, but he has discovered more than once that Gu Ye, who is in charge of military affairs, is better at chatting with people than he is.
After chatting for a while, Secretary Tang, a genuine rural man, had completely relaxed and started chatting with Gu Ye about family matters.
At the same time, Pei Xueyun and Xu Fen went to the Military Service Center to have some snacks and were walking back.
"If you are short of salt or oil when cooking, you can come to the service center to buy it. It is in the camp, close and convenient. There are vegetables for sale here, but you have to be lucky to buy them at the service center. You may not be able to buy them every time, so you still have to go to the vegetable market. I will take you to the town to get familiar with the road tomorrow morning..."
On the way, Xu Fen was telling Pei Xueyun some things to pay attention to. Pei Xueyun listened absent-mindedly, her mind already flying far away.
Pei Xueyun had been thinking about how to persuade Political Commissar Tang to invite Gu Ye to visit since she got up this morning. She mentioned it to Xu Fen once, but of course she didn't say explicitly that she wanted to invite Gu Ye, she just said that she wanted to invite colleagues to dinner or something. Xu Fen's expression was not very happy at the time, so Pei Xueyun didn't mention it to Xu Fen again.
When Political Commissar Tang came back from get off work in the evening, Pei Xueyun pretended that Secretary Tang had come with great difficulty, and the old secretary had been wandering around alone all day and didn't recognize anyone. Political Commissar Tang really understood and immediately ordered Tang Luo to invite Gu Ye.
Pei Xueyun couldn't wait to meet Gu Ye. Although the division headquarters camp was located in a remote location, far away from big cities and surrounded by rural areas, the camp was clean and tidy inside, which was many times better than the educated youth center in the production team.
The key is that living here she doesn’t have to do farm work or carry manure. When she and Gu Ye get married, she, Pei Xueyun, will be the captain’s wife!
Gu Ye's monthly salary of more than 100 yuan is enough for her to spend, and she can also live in an independent courtyard. It is much better than her miserable life in the production team where she had to sleep in a large dormitory with more than a dozen people and fall asleep smelling the smell of cow dung!
Although this book was written by Pei Xueyun, she was so inspired when she was writing that she could write without any writer's block. However, when she herself traveled through time and space, she found that real life was completely different from what was in the book.
At the beginning, she was also full of ambition, thinking that she was holding a script with a heroine as the protagonist, so the plot should be easy to grasp, such as taking the college entrance examination, starting a business, flirting with handsome men, and becoming a rich woman and reaching the peak of her life.
As a result, she collapsed in the wheat field on the first day she entered the book and was fainted by the sun!
The book only describes the life of educated youth in a few hundred words, and it is just mentioned in passing. Who would have thought that Pei Xueyun would experience it personally and have to do actual farm work.
She had never done this kind of work before. The countryside was full of cow dung and the fields were full of bugs. She felt like every second was a year.
Pei Xueyun originally wanted to hold on a little longer, wait until the plot line of joining the army was triggered, and then go on a blind date and marry Gu Ye according to the plot development in the book.
But farm work was too tiring. After half a month, she was almost exhausted. She couldn't do it anymore, so she pretended to be sick and escaped.
In the end, she went to Gu Ye's unit after much hardship, but couldn't even get through the gate...
"Xiao Pei! Xiao Pei? Are you listening to me?"
Pei Xueyun was distracted when she suddenly heard Xu Fen calling her. She quickly raised her eyes and saw Xu Fen looking at her sternly.
"Ah, Teacher Xu, I'm listening!" Pei Xueyun quickly came back to her senses and pretended to be listening attentively, but she was complaining in her heart, it turned out that teachers just love to preach, which is annoying!
"Then repeat what I just said!" Xu Fen frowned slightly.
Pei Xueyun: "...Go to the market to buy vegetables?"
Xu Fen shook her head secretly. Although Pei Xueyun had just arrived yesterday, Xu Fen, with her many years of experience as a teacher, could tell at a glance that the girl in front of her was not a down-to-earth person. She was hypocritical and was good at making excuses.
Before she went to work in the morning, she clearly asked for the crucian carp to be braised, but when she came back at noon, she found that Pei Xueyun had made crucian carp soup.
It would have been fine if she just stewed the soup, but Pei Xueyun also fried the five remaining eggs at home and put them into the crucian carp soup, saying that it would be delicious and nutritious.
Xu Fen didn't have to say anything about these, but the crucian carp soup made by Pei Xueyun was so salty that it was nauseating. She had no choice but to add water to it. In the end, she made a big pot of fish soup, which was just like boiled water and had no fish soup flavor at all.
Moreover, Pei Xueyun's cooking was heavy in salt. Xu Fen now doubted whether the Pei Zhiqing the secretary's wife had told her on the phone about was the wrong person because he was smart, capable and had great cooking skills.
Xu Fen explained everything again to Pei Xueyun, and the two of them had already walked to the family building.
Two women came to greet Xu Fen, "Are there guests at Teacher Xu's house?"
As they spoke, the two women looked at Pei Xueyun, who immediately smiled and greeted them generously, "Hello, sister-in-law! My last name is Pei, and I'm an educated youth. You can just call me Little Pei."
In Pei Xueyun's opinion, she would be joining the family compound in a few days, so she naturally had to maintain good relations with these military wives. In the future, they would be neighbors who would see each other every day.
Xu Fen's eyes darkened at this moment, and she looked calmly at Pei Xueyun who was smiling very proudly.
She must be overthinking it. Why did she feel that Pei Xueyun acted more like the hostess than she, a resident of the family building?
Arriving downstairs at Political Commissar Tang's house, Xu Fen reminded Pei Xueyun: "There are guests at home, don't interrupt them when they are talking!"
Xu Fen was just giving a casual reminder, but Pei Xueyun ignored it. She complained in her heart, if she didn't interrupt, how could she show her erudition and talent, and how could she attract Gu Ye's attention?
