The two of them worked for the whole afternoon, and the sun had already set, with golden sunlight filling the entire yard.
Su Ruanruan looked at her watch. It was already past six o'clock.
I didn’t notice it when I was busy, but now that I’m done, I realize that time flies by really fast and I’m really tired.
Su Ruanruan supported her waist and stood up, and asked Fu Wenjing, "What do you want to eat tonight? I'll make it."
"You don't have to do it." Fu Wenjing refused directly, "Wife, just boil two pots of hot water for taking a bath later. I'll go to the cafeteria to get food."
Su Ruanruan wanted to refuse, but Fu Wenjing had already taken the lunch box and small basin, put them on the cart and pushed them away.
Looking at Fu Wenjing's departing back, Su Runrun smiled silently, then stood up and went into the kitchen to boil water.
I was sweating all over and even my hair was wet. I need to wash it thoroughly at night.
It would be nice to have a bathtub!
You can buy a bathtub in the gold rush, but Su Ruanruan can't take it out and use it in front of Fu Wenjing.
Sighing helplessly, Su Runrun could only comfort herself that she would take a good bath when Fu Wenjing went to the army tomorrow morning and she was alone at home.
However, what Su Runrun did not expect was that half an hour later, when Fu Wenjing came back with not only dinner, but also a bathtub on the cart.
This bathtub looks brand new at first glance. The yellow wooden board has wood texture. It’s not stunning, but it’s quite pleasing to the eye.
Su Ruanruan stared at the bathtub for a while, then looked at Fu Wenjing in shock, "Where did you get the bathtub?"
I've never seen this sold in department stores before.
Fu Wenjing smiled and said, "There are all kinds of craftsmen here, and many people use bathtubs. I just went to take a look and happened to have one ready-made, so I brought one back."
Su Ruanruan looked towards the gate and saw that there was no one outside, so she lowered her voice and asked, "Can we buy and sell?"
Her behavior successfully made Fu Wenjing laugh.
"Of course, this also generates income for the troops, producing and selling by ourselves!"
Hearing Fu Wenjing's answer, Su Runrun couldn't help but give a thumbs up.
It’s really open-minded!
Fu Wenjing continued, "There are still many people who use bathtubs here in the summer, but not in the fall and winter. It's very cold here in the fall and winter, and taking a bath at home can freeze you to death. But don't worry, there is a bathhouse in the compound, and you can buy a bath ticket to take a bath when the time comes."
The bathhouses in Northeast China are well-known throughout the country. Even though Su Runrun has never experienced them personally, she has heard of them.
But there’s no rush to take a shower, it’s not dark yet.
The most important thing now is not taking a bath, but eating.
Su Ruanruan picked up the lunch box from the bus and said, "There's water in the basin over there. Go wash your hands and face. Let's eat first. We can talk about other things after we eat."
Dinner was still corn porridge, which was bright yellow and had a sweet flavor.
Even though she had just eaten it in the morning, Su Ruanruan still thought it was delicious.
Fu Wenjing brought back two dishes, one was stewed eggplant with green beans, the other was stir-fried pork with chili peppers, and four multi-grain steamed buns.
The steamed bun was as big as Fu Wenjing's fist and very firm. It couldn't be pressed. It was chewy and very filling.
Steamed buns like this are a delicious dish when dipped in vegetable soup.
After working for a whole afternoon, Su Runrun was so hungry that her stomach was sticking to her back.
Su Ruanruan ate one and a half of this big and solid steamed bun.
The remaining two and a half were eaten by Fu Wenjing.
Not to mention the dishes, even the soup was soaked up completely.
This is how it is in this era. Everyone has come from hard times and no one will waste food.
Eat as much as you take, nothing will be wasted, and there will be no leftovers.
After all, the weather is hot now and there is no refrigerator.
If you don't finish your food, it will go bad tomorrow.
Will I feel too full?
Eating a lot is such a happy thing!
Think about it, some people can’t even get enough to eat, but they can eat their fill, so how can they not be happy?
As for whether I will gain weight?
Not likely.
I eat light food, don't eat snacks, and there is always work to do, so I won't gain weight.
Not long after the two finished their meal, it started to darken outside.
The water has been boiled.
After Fu Wenjing washed the dishes, he cleaned the bathtub again and then brought the bathtub into the east room.
Su Ruanruan wanted to help carry it, but before she could open her mouth, Fu Wenjing had already left with the bathtub, and she could only stare at his back in a daze.
She knew that Fu Wenjing was very strong, but this was a little too strong!
Fu Wenjing moved very quickly and had mixed the water in no time.
"Wife, you wash first."
The bathtub was not very big. When Su Runrun sat in it, it was just right.
She thought it was just right, but when Fu Wenjing used it, it seemed a little stretched.
But Fu Wenjing didn't care at all and finished washing quickly.
Su Ruanruan sat on the kang and admired the picture of a handsome man coming out of the bath.
It was not until Fu Wenjing went to pour water that Su Runrun lay down on the kang.
After a busy day, Su Runruan had a full meal and took a bath. As soon as she lay down, she began to feel sleepy and could hardly open her eyes.
Just when she was in a daze, she felt Fu Wenjing approaching.
Su Ruanruan was wearing loose pajamas at this time, and Fu Wenjing's big hand easily reached in from the hem of her shirt.
There is a layer of calluses on Fu Wenjing's palms, and when he touches the delicate skin on Su Ruanruan's waist and abdomen, it gives Su Ruanruan a tingling and numb feeling.
"itch."
Su Ruanruan murmured and dodged to the side.
"I'm tired and want to sleep."
Fu Wenjing said in a low voice, "Wife, you go to sleep, you don't have to move."
"......"
Su Ruanruan was in a daze.
It started in a daze, ended in a daze, and I was in a daze while Fu Wenjing held me in his arms and took a bath.
After returning to the kang again, Su Ruanruan turned over and fell asleep hugging the quilt.
Although it was very hot during the day, the room was not very stuffy at night.
The kang is especially cool, and except that it is a bit hard, it is quite comfortable to sleep on in the summer.
Su Ruanruan didn’t know how long she had slept. When she finally woke up, the room was already bright even with the curtains drawn.
Su Ruanruan looked around and found no one on the kang, but there was a piece of paper.
On the paper was Fu Wenjing's strong and powerful handwriting.
—Wife, breakfast is warming in the pot, remember to eat it when you get up, I'm going to the army. The door of the yard was bolted from the inside, I jumped out, don't worry. I'll bring lunch back at noon, you have a good rest.
Su Ruanruan was still a little confused at first, but as she watched, she finally came to her senses.
Fu Wenjing is definitely the first person in history to leave his own home and climb over the wall!
In fact, Fu Wenjing could have locked the door from the outside, but he didn't do it. He was probably worried that it would be inconvenient for her to go out if it was locked.
