“The girls who came to see me all have children who attend kindergarten. They were hoping that I could look after their children.”
Ye Zhaozhao understood, and checked Sun Xiuhua's injury again. She was relieved to see that it was almost healed.
Where is Brother Zhou?
"He's on duty at the military region, and he's afraid I'll ask him to do anything."
Sun Xiuhua immediately started complaining about Zhou Dawu. Ye Zhaozhao sat with her for a while before going home to cook.
I also invited Sun Xiuhua to come over for dinner that evening.
When Ye Zhaozhao got home, she started cooking. Seeing this, Gu Yunduan told the child to play by himself and he would help.
The two of them quickly made two pots of large steamed dumplings with sauerkraut filling.
As soon as Sun Xiuhua entered the door, she smelled the aroma of pickled cabbage; she had been craving it for a long time.
The doctor had told her to avoid certain foods after her injury, but now that Ye Zhaozhao says she can eat them, she's not stopping herself.
After finishing ten steamed dumplings, Zhou Dawu returned home to find no one there, so he went to Ye Zhaozhao's house. Ye Zhaozhao went to get Zhou Dawu a bowl and chopsticks.
"Yun Duan, a new recruit has arrived in our military region. I can't control him. You'll be in charge tomorrow."
These past few days, this greenhorn has been tormenting Zhou Dawu to no end. Gu Yunduan saw him like this and immediately guessed what was going on.
"Who sent this person?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Dawu put down his chopsticks and gave Gu Yunduan a thumbs up, saying, "He's truly a prophet!"
It's not that he doesn't care, but he can't be too strict.
"I don't know the specifics, but he has some connections; the commander personally picked him up and brought him to the military region."
Gu Yunduan understood, and the two chatted for a few more minutes. After handing over this hot potato to Gu Yunduan, Zhou Dawu felt that his meal tasted much better.
The next day, Gu Yunduan resumed training, while Ye Zhaozhao and the children stayed at home.
Since I had nothing better to do, I decided to tidy up the vegetable garden in the yard.
At this moment, Director Jiang arrived. Upon seeing him, Ye Zhaozhao went inside to pour him water, which made Director Jiang feel somewhat flattered.
"Comrade Ye, I've come to see you today to exchange some vegetable seeds with you."
They thought that Ye Zhaozhao's vegetables were the best in the entire residential compound.
It wasn't right to keep asking others for vegetables, so I simply took vegetable seeds home and grew them myself.
"Okay, wait a moment."
Ye Zhaozhao went inside and got a lot of seeds from the mall, which she gave to Director Jiang.
Director Jiang wanted to take the money, but Ye Zhaozhao stopped her, saying that the logistics department was responsible for cultivating land for the military region.
If she really accepted the money, what would that look like? Director Jiang didn't force her when she saw that she didn't want it.
After Director Jiang left, Ye Zhaozhao continued to tidy up the vegetable garden. At noon, Sun Xiuhua and Duan Ziyi arrived together.
Sun Xiuhua covered her mouth and chuckled, while Duan Ziyi next to her was furious.
"Sister-in-law Sun, please stop laughing at me."
"What's wrong? What are you laughing at?"
Duan Ziyi went home for the Chinese New Year and only came back a couple of days ago. Her mother said she had arranged a blind date for her and that she had to go and meet the person.
This man is the son of her best friend. He has been handsome since he was a child. If the two of them can get together, Huang Aijuan plans to arrange a marriage between relatives.
"You saw the person? How was it?"
Duan Ziyi shook her head, feeling conflicted. She even began to doubt her mother's taste – how could this be considered beautiful?
Duan Ziyi then told Ye Zhaozhao about the blind date.
This person insisted on taking her to the park. After Duan Ziyi refused, the person took her for a walk around the neighborhood. At first, she didn't understand what was going on.
Later, when I found out he was trying to save money on food, I lost my goodwill towards him.
Even more bizarrely, this person actually said that after getting married, her salary alone would be enough to support her whole family.
This is clearly meant to make Duan Ziyi support her.
And they even said that two people could eat their fill without having to work so hard.
Why should two people go to work? After Duan Ziyi refused, he looked incredulous.
It's rare to find a man as considerate and gentle as him; she'll definitely regret missing out on him.
Duan Ziyi refrained from scolding him, still considering that he was the son of her mother's best friend.
"Zhaozhao, you know, there are all kinds of people out there. How can a man like this have the nerve to go on a blind date?"
At this moment, Sun Xiuhua felt that compared to these people, her Zhou Dawu was much more normal.
After they finished chatting, the two helped Ye Zhaozhao tidy up the vegetable garden.
"Zhaozhao, I'm not planning to grow vegetables this year."
Sun Xiuhua thought that she would be busy when the kindergarten started, and the vegetables provided by the military district every year would be enough to eat. Ye Zhaozhao nodded.
"Sister-in-law Sun, you can come to my house to pick them later."
"good."
Next, Ye Zhaozhao got busy preparing for the start of the new semester.
While managing the pharmaceutical factory, Gu Yunduan returned that evening and spoke to Ye Zhaozhao.
"Wife, the commander said he wants to ask you for a favor."
"What?"
"It's that stamina-restoring pill you made for me before. The commander wants you to make more of it."
When going on a mission, everyone won't have to worry about not having enough stamina.
After all, missions are very physically demanding, and there have been instances where missions have failed due to exhaustion.
"Okay, approximately how much do you need?"
"I need a thousand of them first."
"OK."
These days, Ye Zhaozhao spends all her time making medicine, except when she goes to school during the day. Even Gu Yunduan has been unusually undisturbed by her.
Seven days later, all one thousand pills were ready. Gu Yunduan took them to the military region, and the commander was very happy to see the pills.
"Deputy Brigade Commander Gu, this time you should give your wife a major commendation."
"Thank you, sir."
News of Ye Zhaozhao's meritorious service in making pills quickly spread throughout the military region, and many people were extremely envious.
This is a military achievement; it's not something that can be easily recorded.
