Gu Ye looked at Jiang Yue's running figure, and the corners of his lips curled up again. It turned out that she could blush too!
Jiang Yue rushed into the main room and then she remembered that she needed to take a shower, but her face was too hot now. If she went out, Gu Ye would laugh at her!
After walking around the room twice, Jiang Yue calmed down, but she was even more confused as to why Gu Ye suddenly wanted to fetch water to wash her feet.
Jiang Yue had no doubt that if she hadn't acted quickly, Gu Ye would really have reached into the basin and rubbed her feet.
Although husband and wife are inseparable and it is normal for them to scrub each other's baths and wash each other's feet, she and Gu Ye are not in a normal husband-and-wife relationship!
There was a sound of water splashing on the ground in the yard. Jiang Yue went to the window and took a look. It was Gu Ye fetching water to wash the blue bricks.
Last night's heavy rain washed out all the mud, and the blue bricks in the yard were covered with mud and water. At a glance, the whole yard looked like a big mud pond.
After Gu Ye rinsed the water, he swept it once and rinsed it again. The blue bricks were clean. When the sun came out, they would be dry in a short while.
After washing the blue bricks, Gu Ye used a large shovel to smooth the muddy ground in the yard. If he didn't do this, the yard would be full of potholes when the sun dried the soil.
Jiang Yue was thinking that Gu Ye was quite attentive, when she suddenly saw Gu Ye pause for a moment and turn his head slightly to look in her direction.
OMG! I was caught peeking!
Jiang Yue quickly retracted her head, her heart beating like a drum. How could she forget that Gu Ye was a scout and had a very strong sense of vigilance. The novel described Gu Ye as the strongest single soldier who destroyed an entire enemy battalion by himself!
Gu Ye has won five special merits, three first-class merits, and the title of "Combat Hero", which is extremely rare in the country.
Jiang Yue waited until her heartbeat calmed down and her face was no longer hot before she left the room. She remembered that Gu Ye said he received an order in the middle of the night, so he left in the middle of the night. Where was Ningning?
Hearing Jiang Yue's question, Gu Ye turned around and said, "Ningning is sleeping in the room."
Jiang Yue: "?? You left in the middle of the night and left Ningning alone? Why didn't you call me?"
Gu Ye was taking off his clothes and shoes, and he said, "I don't want to wake you up! And Ningning is asleep, she won't wake up under normal circumstances."
Jiang Yue didn't know what to say.
But, Gu Ye said he didn't want to wake her up? Was he so considerate of her?
"Gu Ye, I want to discuss something with you."
"Huh? You say!" Gu Ye was covered in mud and water. He sat on the steps in the corridor, took off his shoes, and turned his shoes downwards, and water and mud fell down.
The Gu Ye that Jiang Yue saw was always clean and tidy. When he wore a military uniform, he would button his discipline buttons to his Adam's apple. When he was at home, he would always wear a shirt and long pants. He always looked upright and handsome. He had never sat on the ground as casually as he did now, and took off his clothes and shoes in front of her without caring about his image.
How strange!
"Look at our yard, it turns into a mud puddle when it rains, and there's no place to step! I was thinking, can we harden it and pave a cement floor, so that we don't have to worry about heavy rains." Speaking of business, Jiang Yue really couldn't imagine the scene of sighing at the mud puddle every time it rained.
Gu Ye didn't expect that this was what Jiang Yue wanted to say. He looked at the yard and didn't speak for a while.
In just a few days, a big sweet-scented osmanthus tree appeared in the originally empty courtyard, roses climbed up the bare courtyard wall, and flowers bloomed under the wall. There were also chairs under the tree and beds under the corridor, which added a strong atmosphere of life to the courtyard, and it was no longer dead as before.
Seeing that Gu Ye didn't say anything, Jiang Yue thought he disagreed, so she listed the benefits of having a cement floor, such as how it's clean, so there's no need to worry about the house being covered in mud on rainy days, and Ningning doesn't have to worry about getting her clothes dirty when playing in the yard.
A smile flashed across Gu Ye's dark eyes, "Okay, sure!"
Jiang Yue was talking until her mouth was dry and she couldn't think of any other benefit. She was thinking about how to continue to persuade Gu Ye to agree when she heard Gu Ye say yes. She was stunned for a moment.
"You agree?"
Gu Ye nodded, "Yes! Don't you want cement? I'll go to the cement factory at noon today and buy some more cement. I agree with you that cement floors are cleaner!"
Jiang Yue was once again shocked by Gu Ye's easy-going nature. Has Gu Ye always been so easy-going, or has he only become so easy-going recently?
But this question is not important. Jiang Yue asked Gu Ye happily: "I've thought about it. Let's make the whole place concrete and leave a piece under the osmanthus tree. I want to make a sand pit for Ningning."
"Sand pit?" Gu Ye raised his eyebrows.
"Yes! So you'll have to go find some river sand!" Jiang Yue waved her hand and pointed to the side close to the wall. "I want to build a flower bed over there with bricks, and lay pebbles underneath. When you have nothing to do, you can step on the pebbles barefoot, which can stimulate the acupuncture points on the soles of your feet and is good for your health!"
"Okay! I'll listen to you!" Gu Ye stared at Jiang Yue. When she spoke, her petal-like mouth opened and closed, her eyes were bright, and her whole body seemed to be glowing.
"What about the backyard? What are you going to do? Do you want to pave it with cement?" Gu Ye really likes to hear Jiang Yue say the words "our yard" now.
"There's no need to pave the backyard with cement. I want to grow vegetables in the backyard." Jiang Yue fantasized about it. Isn't this the pastoral life she had always longed for?
"Growing vegetables?" Gu Ye raised his eyebrows again and looked at Jiang Yue with a deeper look.
"Yes, I also want to dig a cellar so that I can store a lot of vegetables in the winter!" When she said this, the smile on Jiang Yue's mouth suddenly became forced. In the winter, she probably wouldn't be here anymore, and maybe she had given way to someone else.
So what is she still planning?
Gu Ye noticed that Jiang Yue was speaking well, and suddenly her expression became lost. He didn't know what she suddenly thought of to make her unhappy, but he still agreed, "Okay, let's dig a cellar!"
"I'm going to take a shower!" Jiang Yue forced a smile at Gu Ye and went into the kitchen to get some hot water.
Gu Ye stared at Jiang Yue's back, a hint of tenderness flashing across his black eyes like cold ponds.
By the time Jiang Yue came out of washing her hair and taking a shower, Gu Ye was no longer at home.
He probably left in a hurry, and the clothes he took off were soaking in the basin and he didn't have time to wash them.
Jiang Yue wanted to wash her own clothes, but she thought, would it be a bad idea for her to just leave Gu Ye's clothes soaking there?
Or, did she help him wash today?
When she really started washing Gu Ye's clothes, Jiang Yue realized that she had overestimated herself. In her previous life, when her clothes were dirty, she would just throw them into the washing machine. She never had to do it herself, so Jiang Yue didn't know that men's clothes were so big and so difficult to wash.
Jiang Yue felt that her shower was in vain. She broke into a sweat just by washing clothes.
At this time, Jiang Yue couldn't help but sigh again, it would be great if there was a washing machine!
…
At noon, a person came to the gate of the 179th Division Headquarters. She was a young woman, about 22 or 23 years old, with two pigtails, delicate features, and a good temperament, but she was very thin and seemed to be in poor health.
