Chapter 374 Newly Married
Changing her location and having someone around her, Lu Chun'e should have suffered from insomnia. However, she was so aroused by someone that she forgot where she was and fell asleep in Zhou Mingli's arms, not even noticing when he woke her up.
When I woke up, light was coming in through the window, and even the curtains with white orchid background couldn't block it out.
There were faint sounds of talking outside.
She blinked, and it took her a while to come back to her senses and realize where she was.
Just as she sat up, the quilt slipped down, revealing her scarred shoulders. Before she could reach out to grab her clothes, she heard movement outside. Instinctively, she quickly crawled back under the quilt.
After Zhou Mingli finished his morning practice, he went to the cafeteria to get his food. Then he tiptoed into the house, took a look, turned around and went out. He got some water from the kitchen and brought it to the gutter behind to rinse himself from head to toe. He changed his clothes, threw the dirty clothes into the basin, rubbed them twice, and hung them up before going into the next room.
When he entered the room and saw the person who had already packed up, he was slightly stunned and chuckled: "You're up!"
After a night, the two became very close, and Lu Chun'e found it difficult to adapt to seeing him.
They've been together for so long, they've kissed and hugged each other, but other than that, Zhou Mingli has always been very well behaved, like last night -
"Chun'e, time for breakfast!"
Zhou Mingli called out twice but she didn't respond. He leaned over the table and leaned closer to her, looking at her with a smile: "What are you thinking about? So serious?"
"I was thinking about last night—" Lu Chun'e suddenly realized what was happening and stopped talking. Her already red face now looked as if it was about to bleed.
Zhou Mingli couldn't help laughing, and simply stood up and moved his chair over to sit next to her: "Thinking about last night. Last night was too late. Let's get up early tonight and take it slow. Let's finish what we didn't finish last night?"
Lu Chun'e poked him with her finger. "What nonsense are you talking about in broad daylight? Stay away from me. Are you going to have breakfast or not?"
"Okay, let's eat." We'll talk about tonight later. This girl is so shy.
After dinner, Lu Chun'e asked, "How far is it from here to where I can buy things?"
Zhou Mingli said, "It depends on what you're buying. For daily purchases, go directly to the city. Since this is a mountain town, going to the county town is about the same as going to the city. Well, the place where you're going to do your internship is also in the city, not too far from here, half an hour by car."
Lu Chun'e breathed a sigh of relief, that's not bad.
"There are also family members here who work in the city. After spending more time and getting to know each other better, you might be able to meet someone you can get along with." After a pause, he said, "It doesn't matter if you don't meet anyone. It's enough to have a brother who loves you."
Lu Chun'e smiled and pinched him: "Slippery tongue. Are you free this afternoon?"
"Well, I have to go out for a while. I'll be fine when I come back in the afternoon."
Lu Chun'e said, "If you have time, you should prepare the kitchen supplies so that cooking can be more convenient. Going to the cafeteria to get food all the time doesn't feel like living a normal life."
"Yeah, okay!" Zhou Mingli reached out and hugged her. The feeling between the two of them was different. He also had a family now!
"We still have some time. I'll take you outside so you can get familiar with the place."
Lu Chun'e readily agreed.
She still had two days to spare, so naturally she had to familiarize herself with the surroundings. Although she was only staying for a month, there was still a lot of time to come! She would have to stay as long as Zhou Mingli stayed in this place.
The news that Captain Zhou's lover was coming to the military region had spread long before Lu Chun'e herself arrived. Now that she had finally arrived, many people came to see her, curious to see what kind of woman Captain Zhou had chosen. As a result, not long after leaving the house, they began to encounter various people along the way, both men and women.
In half a day, except for the places that were not allowed to be visited, Zhou Mingli took her to visit the entire military area. They also met the neighbors who lived nearby, and they got to know each other.
This was Zhou Mingli's real marriage. He only had three days off in total, and one day was spent picking up Lu Chun'e. Today was one day, and tomorrow was another day. He would be busy again the day after tomorrow.
He walked around with Lu Chun'e for a while and then left after sending her back. Although it was a vacation, he couldn't be completely idle.
Lu Chun'e returned to their current home by herself and stood at the door looking around.
The house is the same as their hometown, made of adobe and tiled. Each family has its own household.
There was empty space on both sides of the door, which was simply surrounded by a fence.
There are fruits everywhere in front of other people's doors, but theirs is overgrown with weeds.
The new neighbor at the door greeted her: "Big sister, if you want to start a fire, bring a basket and pick vegetables from the field. Don't be polite."
Lu Chun'e smiled and replied, "Thank you!"
"What's there to thank me for? We'll be neighbors from now on." This is the captain's family member, it's always right to treat them well.
Lu Chun'e looked around, then went back to the house to pack up, and took a pen and paper to write down everything she needed to buy.
In the afternoon, Zhou Mingli came back and drove his own car to take Lu Chun'e to the city.
It’s really not far away, and the city is not big, but it has everything.
They first went to see the place where Lu Chun'e was going to do her internship, and then the two of them went shopping.
Although I'm only buying things for the kitchen for now, I've bought quite a few odds and ends.
There are really a lot of things to use on the stove, including spoons, shovels, bowls, chopsticks, casseroles, clay pots, jars, and dishes.
As for food, it was included in Zhou Mingli’s allowance. He used to hand it over directly to the canteen, but now if he cooked for himself, he just had to take the book and go to collect it.
As for other things, Lu Chun'e thought that she would talk about it after she had completely moved in. For now, let it be like this.
The newlyweds had their first meal that evening.
Lu Chun'e fried the pancakes made by her, the chili peppers sent by the neighbor, and the eggs she bought together, and rolled them up with the pancakes while drinking red bean porridge.
After dinner, it got dark outside.
Zhou Mingli rolled up his sleeves and cleaned the stove.
The coal in the newly bought stove was burning vigorously, and the brand new teapot was already steaming.
After washing up, all the lights were turned off, except for a low-wattage lamp at the head of the bed in the bedroom, which emitted an orange light, adding a bit of ambiguity to the coming night.
Lu Chun'e changed into a loose cotton sleeveless floral dress and rolled out of bed.
She learned this habit from Wen Wan. She didn't have the conditions before, but later she had them, and over time it became her habit.
With her half-dry hair scattered on her body, she sat on the bed with her knees hugged. Zhou Mingli sat on the edge of the bed and wiped her hair, picking out things that could be said to her.
Gossip about other people's affairs is all trivial matters.
Lu Chun'e wanted to laugh as she listened: "Didn't you live in the dormitory before? How come you know something like a few green onions missing from someone's field?"
Zhou Mingli replied seriously, "Isn't this what you wanted to come to? I specifically asked for information and am telling you this. This way you'll know exactly what kind of person he is and what his personality is, so you'll have a better idea of how to get along with him in the future."
"Is that so? Thank you, Captain Zhou?"
Zhou Mingli narrowed his eyes and took a breath, "Do you really want to thank me or are you trying to seduce me?"
Without even wiping the hair, he threw the towel aside and threw the person onto the bed.
Lu Chun'e's heart was beating a little fast, thump thump, as if it was about to burst out.
"No, I didn't seduce you."
"But I can't control myself anymore. Chun'e, if you seduce me I'll die."
As he spoke, he lowered his head and nibbled her gently: "Did you feel comfortable last night?"
Lu Chun'e blushed and closed her eyes, not daring to look at him: "Don't talk!"
Zhou Mingli chuckled softly: "Okay, okay, okay, then let's not talk about it, let's just do it, okay?"
After using all sorts of tactics to eat the person, he finally managed to coax the person into nodding and admitting the word "comfortable".
Then, like a beast that had seen blood, he became even more excited: "Then how about we try something more comfortable?"
Lu Chun'e didn't want to speak. It didn't matter whether she agreed or not. Zhou Mingli would always find ways to persuade her to agree.
This man has changed and has become a complete annoyance.
Then she started crying. No, it’s not that he’s a troublemaker, he’s just a liar.
Where does it feel comfortable? It hurts so much, okay?
Even with this, he still tries to coax people, saying that it will be fine in a while and they will feel better in a while.
Later on, it didn't hurt that much, but Lu Chun'e felt that she really couldn't trust this man anymore. He was a liar and his words were completely unreliable.
Only when the two of them finally fit in did Zhou Mingli breathe a sigh of relief. His body was drenched in sweat due to endurance, tension, and pain. The sweat dripped from his face and fell on the milky white skin of the person under him, as if the two of them had become one at this moment.
The next day, Lu Chun'e didn't even leave the house. The two of them stayed in the house shamelessly for the whole day.
Fortunately, Zhou Mingli's vacation ended on the third day. She breathed a sigh of relief and rested for a while. The next day, she took a car from the military district to report to the hospital.
A month is really not a long time, especially for a newlywed couple who are just beginning to experience love.
Especially a man like Zhou Mingli who has just been married for a few days and has to lead a team on a mission himself.
When he came back, Lu Chun'e had already returned to school.
The house was clean and tidy, and the barren vegetable garden outside was well-organized, with the planted vegetables only two or three inches tall.
A thriving scene.
But looking at the empty house, Zhou Mingli felt so pitiful, just like a cabbage in the wild.
Now that school has started, Dandan has to go to school too.
There is a school outside the Capital Military Region compound.
He is not yet six years old, but he has been taught by Wen Wan and Wen Shihua, and he knows quite a few words.
Moreover, when he heard that there were many children of his age in the school, he was extremely excited. On the first day of school, many children were reluctant to go to school. Wen Wan came to see him off. He carried the small schoolbag Wen Wan made for him and waved his hand mercilessly: "Okay, I'm here, you can go now, Mom."
