Lu Shishen could tell that her tone was becoming increasingly off. He wanted to explain, but felt he had no way to do so because it was indeed the fact.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Yang Niannian felt sour in her heart. She tickled his hand with her feet in dissatisfaction and asked sourly.
"Have you ever fantasized about the sweet life you will have after you marry Yang Huiying?"
Lu Shishen shook his head, "No."
Apart from sending some living expenses to Yang Huiying every month, he never fantasized about married life.
Yang Niannian didn't believe it. "You were thinking about marrying a college student at that time. You must be so happy, right? You even boasted to the military family that your future wife is a college student."
Lu Shishen patiently explained, "I didn't spread it. I never mentioned Yang Huiying to anyone else."
It was a letter sent by Yang Huiying from school. It was seen by Zhou Bingxing and then spread in the military family compound.
"If it wasn't you who said it, could it be that everyone guessed it?"
The little flame in Yang Niannian's heart grew stronger and she struggled to pull her feet back.
"Hmph! I don't need you. I can do it myself. You can just go and miss me! Anyway, I'm your wife now. You can't change me back even if you want to."
“…”
Lu Shishen didn't understand why Yang Niannian was angry about Yang Huiying again. He had never had any contact with Yang Huiying.
Afraid that she might be injured, he grabbed her fair and slender ankle and said.
"Don't move. There is sand and mud in the wound. You need to clean it, otherwise it will easily become infected."
Yang Niannian didn't really want to retract her foot, she just pretended to be a little bit angry and snorted.
"If Yang Huiying hadn't used any tricks and she had married you, would you have been so nice to her?"
In fact, this has always been a knot in Yang Niannian's heart. Sometimes she would wonder whether no matter who marries Lu Shishen, he will follow the rules to get married.
Then treat others as well as you treat her, and live a happy and loving life as a couple.
Whenever she thought about it, she felt sour in her heart, as if she had drunk aged vinegar.
Lu Shishen paused, looked up at her and said seriously.
"I wasn't born this way. I became this way after meeting you."
After saying that, he lowered his head and continued to help her clean the soles of her feet. Seeing the skin on her pink and tender soles broken and bleeding, he felt it was particularly irritating.
He had been seriously injured and had broken bones, but he had never felt this way before.
Yang Niannian was stunned for a moment, her heart was so sweet that it almost overflowed. She never expected that Lu Shishen would suddenly come to his senses and say such heart-stirring words in a serious manner.
My depressed mood suddenly cleared up, and I wanted to hug his neck and sip a few times.
"Since you can still speak, I'll forgive you for now."
Lu Shishen had never said anything like what he just said. He looked a little unnatural and kept his head down without saying a word.
Yang Niannian's mood improved and she started to think about gossip again.
"What happened to An An's mother? Why did she disappear?"
To be honest, with Lu Nianfei's personality, he doesn't seem like the type of person who would marry early.
Without even raising his head, Lu Shishen replied calmly, "An An's mother and Nian Fei are childhood sweethearts."
Yang Niannian was curious, "Wouldn't that be a good relationship?"
Lu Shishen didn't like to talk about other people's family matters, but seeing Yang Niannian's eyes full of curiosity, he just briefly told her a few words.
Lu Nianfei and An An’s mother Huang Danping are from the same village and grew up together. Both sets of parents are very optimistic about them.
Huang Danping also has some feelings for Lu Nianfei, but Lu Nianfei has no intention of getting married in the army.
When he went home to visit his relatives, the two families conspired to put aphrodisiac for sows into the soup he drank, and everything fell into place.
Although Lu Nianfei was very angry, he was willing to take responsibility for what he had done, so he went back to the army and applied for a marriage report.
Unexpectedly, Huang Danping became pregnant with An An that time.
At that time, Lu Nianfei's rank was not high enough to allow his family to accompany him in the army. He spent little time in the army, and he was resentful, so he seldom went home to visit his family. He just sent his allowance back on time every month.
Three years ago, he went back once. Not long after, news came from his hometown that Huang Danping was missing. He called the police but there was no trace of her.
The only thing that is certain is that Huang Danping left on her own and left a letter before leaving.
Later, An An's grandfather passed away, and her grandparents were unwilling to raise her. Coincidentally, Lu Nianfei took on another task, so he entrusted An An to Lu Shishen to take care of her temporarily.
Yang Niannian was stunned when she heard this. Lu Nianfei had actually drunk that stuff?
It sounds a bit funny now, but if you change Lu Nianfei’s identity to a female character, you will be able to understand Lu Nianfei.
"Didn't Huang Danping love Lu Nianfei very much? Why did she leave? Didn't the letter say where she was going? Are you sure the letter was written by her?"
In this day and age, it takes a lot of courage for a woman to run away from home.
Huang Danping also had feelings for Lu Nianfei. Although Lu Nianfei went back home less often, he sent all his allowance back home.
Soldiers have little time to begin with, and it is not uncommon for them not to see each other for a year if they are not accompanying their loved ones in the army. So why would they run away from home?
It's so weird.
Lu Shishen shook his head, "The handwriting is definitely hers. The reason for leaving home is unknown. She just said not to look for her."
Yang Niannian pondered, "I think there might be some unknown secrets here, such as she was deceived by someone, or something bad happened to her."
"Otherwise, why would she run away from home? In the countryside, her husband sends her an allowance regularly every month, and her living conditions are already better than many people's. She has no reason to run away from home, right?"
Lu Shishen shook his head, "Maybe!"
He was not a person who was good at gossip and did not pay much attention to this matter.
What's more, all the evidence shows that Huang Danping ran away from home on her own, and some villagers also saw her leaving the village.
Lu Shishen wiped Yang Niannian's feet with a foot towel and then bandaged her feet with gauze.
He stood up and carried her back to the room. "I'm going to the army. You should rest well in the room first. Don't walk around. I'll make dinner when I come back."
Yang Niannian suggested, "If Lu Nianfei has time tonight, let him come over for dinner! And cultivate some feelings with An An at the same time."
"good."
Lu Shishen nodded in agreement, then turned and left the room.
Not long after he left, footsteps were heard outside, and the sound stopped when it reached the main room.
Yang Niannian thought it was An An, so she called out but no one answered, and then the door was pushed open.
Hu Qiaomei suddenly appeared at the door. When she saw Yang Niannian on the bed, she was stunned for a moment, then smiled flatteringly.
"Oh! So you are Captain Lu's wife? I was wondering, you are so young, how could you give birth to a five or six-year-old son? It turns out that he is not your biological son!"
Yang Niannian frowned. This person's words were really unpleasant.
"Why did you come in without knocking?"
Hu Qiaomei said confidently, "It's broad daylight, your husband is not at home, and you are not doing anything shameful in the house, why are you knocking on the door? In our village, knocking on the door is never a custom."
Yang Niannian, "No matter where you are, it is very rude to enter someone's house without knocking."
Hu Qiaomei walked into the room and sat down on the chair beside Yang Niannian's bed instead of sitting down. "Okay, okay, okay, can't I knock on the door next time?"
Although he agreed with her, in fact, he didn't take Yang Niannian's words seriously at all.
