Chapter 374 Why Should I Return Wrapped in Horsehide?



Jiang Yue usually wakes up at a certain time in the morning, unless she is too tired at night, then even the loud military songs playing on the loud speaker outside cannot wake her up.

When Gu Ye came back, Jiang Yue had just woken up and was sitting on the bed. Jiang Yue's mind was still a little dazed. She remembered that she went to bed very early last night, but got up a little later than usual this morning.

It seems like I had an indescribable dream?

No, that was not a dream!

Gu Ye entered the room and saw Jiang Yue sitting there in a daze, her long hair disheveled and her little face still showing the laziness and confusion of having just woken up.

"What are you thinking about?" Gu Ye stroked Jiang Yue's cheek with his big hand. The young wife had a fair complexion, which felt very good to the touch. Her skin was as white as mutton-fat jade, which made him unable to let go.

"No!" Jiang Yue blinked twice and asked Gu Ye: "Did you last night--"

Upon hearing this, Gu Ye's eyes dodged, and he quickly kissed Jiang Yue, reached out to take her little cotton-padded jacket, put it on her, and then changed the subject, "There are beef patties in the cafeteria today, and I brought two for you and Ningning. It's just right to eat them now, and they're still hot!"

Jiang Yue understood what was going on when she saw Gu Ye's guilty look, but Gu Ye didn't give her the chance to get angry. He ran around, gave her warm water to drink, and fed her beef patties.

"Ah Jin's package should arrive today, right? I'll go over there at noon and pick it up with you, and pick up mom's things as well!"

"Hmm!" Jiang Yue responded vaguely. At this time, she took a bite of the beef patty. Well, it was not as delicious as the one she made, but it was not bad either. There was a lot of beef filling in it. After taking a bite, her mouth was full of meat and wheat aroma.

Gu Ye brought back two beef patties. In that era, everything was huge in portion and full of ingredients, especially those in the army canteen. One beef patty was as big as Gu Ye's palm. Jiang Yue couldn't finish it at all. She ate two-thirds of it, and Ning Ning could only eat one-third. The rest was given to Gu Ye.

"What time is it now?" Jiang Yue had actually been on edge the entire night, fearing that as soon as she opened her eyes, Yang Cuiling would come running to her crying and tell her that the house had caught fire and all the goods were burned.

"It's a quarter past seven." Gu Ye saw Jiang Yue frowning and knew she was still worried, so he held her hand and said, "Wang Yang went to pick up Hu Zi this morning. Everything was normal last night!"

Hearing this, Jiang Yue breathed a sigh of relief.

However, just because nothing happened for one night doesn't mean they can let their guard down, because they don't know whether the arsonist acted on impulse or had it premeditated.

If it was a spur-of-the-moment act, it would be fine and it would be over. However, if it was premeditated, maybe the person would have thought that they would be on guard if he failed the first time, so he would probably lie dormant for a few days and might come again one night.

They must be extremely alert and careful in dealing with this!

Before Gu Ye went to the regiment, he said to Jiang Yue, "I will continue to send Hu Zi over these few nights! I've asked people to go to the nearby villages to ask if anyone has puppies for sale. Although those small local dogs are not as strong as Hu Zi in combat, they are very good at guarding the house. We will keep them in the store when the time comes!"

Jiang Yue hugged Gu Ye's thin waist and rested her head on his chest. Listening to his strong heartbeat, she felt at ease.

She and Gu Ye are not only physically compatible, but also spiritually compatible.

She liked Gu Ye's responsive attitude in everything. When she was frustrated and anxious, he would comfort her. When she encountered troubles, he would help her find solutions or even solve the problems himself, and he could also provide enough emotional value.

This kind of marriage relationship is exactly what Jiang Yue dreams of.

"Gu Ye, I love you!" Jiang Yue stood on tiptoe and took the initiative to kiss Gu Ye.

"I love you too!" Gu Ye's chest was filled with sweetness. Hugging Jiang Yue made him feel fulfilled and satisfied.

Only she can calm him down.

"I'm leaving!" After a passionate kiss, Gu Ye caressed Jiang Yue's blushing cheeks, his dark eyes filled with deep affection that could not be dissolved.

Gu Ye is very grateful for what he has now. Everyone envies him for his great military achievements, but no one knows that he actually suffers from post-war stress disorder.

Although he had already prepared to die in battle before going to the battlefield, he even wrote in his notes: "If I am willing to die for my country on the battlefield, why should I return home wrapped in my horse's hide?"

But when he watched his comrades who went to the battlefield with him, they left as living beings and returned as corpses, after returning, as long as he closed his eyes, he would experience the war and the death of his comrades again and again in his dreams.

During that period, he remained silent. Only high-intensity training could make him temporarily forget the cruelty of the battlefield. He pushed his body to the limit countless times so that he would not dream at night.

However, only he himself knows that he has never forgotten!

Those cruel memories are always there!

Until he met Jiang Yue, of course, it was her later!

Maybe Jiang Yue herself didn't know that it was she who pulled him out of the abyss!

"Gu Ye, what are you thinking about? You are so absorbed in it!"

Suddenly, Gu Ye was patted on the shoulder. Gu Ye reflexively reached out to twist the hand that patted his shoulder, kicked it, and was about to throw it over his shoulder.

"Hello! It's me! Lao Zhao!" Captain Zhao had been following Gu Ye for a long distance. They arrived at the gate of the family compound, but Gu Ye didn't notice him. Then he patted Gu Ye on the shoulder. He never expected Gu Ye to react so strongly, and Captain Zhao was scared.

Although his physical fitness and military qualities were not bad, he was not comparable to Gu Ye. In the entire division, or even in the entire army, there were only a few people who were better than Gu Ye in physical fitness and military qualities.

If Gu Ye twisted him like this and he fell like this, his waist would be broken! His arms would also be broken!

As soon as Gu Ye heard Captain Zhao's voice, he immediately withdrew his hand, and also retracted his foot which was only 0.1 mm away from kicking Captain Zhao's knee.

"Old Zhao, what were you doing sneaking around behind me? I almost mistook you for--" Gu Ye frowned.

Captain Zhao's arm had just been twisted by Gu Ye, and he grimaced in pain. Seeing that Gu Ye was halfway through his words, he asked, "What do you take me for?"

"Nothing!" Gu Ye curled his lips, apologetically took Captain Zhao's hand and squeezed his arm a few times.

"Hey, let go, let go! Stop pinching me, it hurts!" Captain Zhao didn't feel that much pain just now, but after being pinched by Gu Ye, he was sweating from the pain.

"I told you to keep quiet next time you leave behind me!" Gu Ye let go of Captain Zhao's arm.

Captain Zhao felt very wronged, "No way, I saw you when I came out of my house, and I kept shouting after you, but you were like a deaf person, ignoring me. Gu Ye, what are you thinking about, you are so engrossed!

"I wonder who set fire to my wife's shop!" Gu Ye didn't intend to recall the past. He was indeed thinking about who set the fire.

"What? Someone set fire to Xiao Jiang's shop?" Captain Zhao shook his arms, shocked and angry. "Who is so bold? Did they catch him?"

"No, he was found by the lady in the store the night before yesterday, and he ran away. I sent Hu Zi over last night to guard him all night..." Gu Ye and Captain Zhao talked as they walked to the gate of the family compound and got into the car that came to pick them up.

After Jiang Yue and Ningning washed up, Jiang Yue braided Ningning's hair. It was cold now, so she took out a scarf and wrapped both Ningning and herself tightly before carrying Ningning onto the bicycle.

As a result, Jiang Yue was stopped as soon as he arrived at the camp gate.
