After dinner, the couple went to bed early, exhausted from the long journey.
The next morning, the early morning sunlight shone through the window onto the bedroom floor.
Wen Yao slowly opened her eyes and turned to look beside her.
There was no one beside me. I reached out and felt the quilt, but it was not warm at all.
Wen Yao sat up, propping up her lazy back, and heard some noise coming from the yard.
She put on her clothes, casually tied her hair behind her head, and walked out.
Huo Jingqian, wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and army green pants, came in from outside with two lunch boxes in his hands and bumped into Wen Yao head-on.
"Yaoyao, you're awake!"
Huo Jingqian raised the lunch box in his pocket and said, "Go wash up, then you can eat."
Wen Yao nodded and walked towards the kitchen.
On the stove, there was a cup full of water and a toothbrush with toothpaste squeezed in it.
Wen Yao felt warm in her heart. This man was too considerate. Love is a burden of love!
After washing up, she walked to the dining table and sat down.
Huo Jingqian placed an egg, a bowl of porridge and a bun in front of her.
"Did you play this in the army cafeteria? By the way, what time did you get up in the morning? I didn't see you when I woke up," Wen Yao asked.
"I'm going to do morning exercises this morning, so I'll get up early. I'll bring you breakfast from the army, so you can rest a little longer."
As Huo Jingqian spoke, he broke open a bun and handed half to Wen Yao.
Wen Yao took half a bun, which was filled with cabbage.
"Then didn't you go to class on an empty stomach in the morning? Why did you wake me up so that I could cook for you?" Wen Yao said embarrassedly.
Huo Jingqian smiled and ruffled her hair. "You don't need to do this. I married you to be my babysitter."
"Yes, is this what a wife should do? You are so kind and considerate to me, this will make me seem ungrateful!"
Wen Yao pinched her nose and said shyly.
"It doesn't matter, I'm willing to do anything for you, you just need to stay by my side"
Looking at Huo Jingqian's gentle and serious eyes, Wen Yao was instantly moved.
However, she silently made up her mind to do something for Huo Jingqian.
Since she chose to be his wife, she could just enjoy Huo Jingqian's efforts blindly, because love is mutual.
After breakfast, Huo Jingqian did not rush back to the team.
After he cleaned up the lunch boxes in the kitchen, he prepared to take Wen Yao to familiarize herself with the environment of the family compound.
Wen Yao was seen running around the room, going in and out, looking very anxious.
"Yaoyao, what's wrong with you?"
"Toilet, I'm looking for the toilet?"
"Is there a bucket in the room? You use that one first, I'll go down and pour it out," Huo Jingqian said.
"That's not possible. It was too late yesterday...it's daytime now. By the way, doesn't our house have a toilet?" Wen Yao asked anxiously.
"There is a public toilet here, I'll take you there!" Huo Jingqian said.
When Wen Yao heard the words "public toilet", he felt as if the sky had fallen.
This taboo reminded her of the time when she and her best friend Jiang Yu went to the public toilet while hiking.
She felt a chill down her spine when she thought of the scene at that time.
But in the current situation, even if she was willing, she had to accept it.
The public toilet in the family compound was built in the vegetable garden next to the family compound. One reason was that there was no toilet in each family compound, and the other was that the villagers used feces water to fertilize the vegetable garden.
Huo Jingqian brought Wen Yao to the public toilet. Wen Yao stood at the door and was reluctant to go in.
When she thought about the environment inside, she couldn't stand it because it was so bad, dirty and smelly.
"If you want to, let's go back..." Wen Yao pulled Huo Jingqian's hand and whispered.
Huo Jingqian saw Wen Yao's worry and comforted her, "It's okay, I'll wait for you here. Come back soon."
Wen Yao walked in with great courage. Less than two seconds later, Wen Yao screamed in surprise and rushed out of the toilet.
She jumped onto Huo Jingqian and hugged his neck tightly like a sloth.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Huo Jingqian asked worriedly.
"There are so many white bugs moving around inside. It's so scary!"
Although Wen Yao had prepared herself mentally, she was still shocked when she saw the scene.
She thought it would be much different from the toilet she had used before in the scenic spot, but she didn't expect it to be so different. The toilet in the scenic spot was almost twice as good as this one.
Whenever she thought of the scene just now, she felt sick to her stomach.
"Don't be scared, don't be scared, let's go home!" Huo Jingqian gently patted Wen Yao's back to comfort her while carrying her home.
On the way, they met the young soldier's wife, who looked at them strangely!
Wen Yao buried her head in Huo Jingqian's shoulder. She felt that she had never been so embarrassed before.
After returning home, Wen Yao got out of Huo Jingqian's arms and rushed into the room.
After a while, she pinched her nose and came out carrying a small bucket with a lid.
Huo Jingqian took it naturally, then walked out of the yard carrying it.
After a while, he came back and the bucket in his pocket was still stained with water, which meant it had been cleaned.
Wen Yao sat on the bed with his head drooped.
"How are you? Are you okay?" Huo Jingqian walked into the room and asked concernedly.
Wen Yao shook her head, "I'll try to drink less water in the future..."
Huo Jingqian couldn't help laughing. He held Wen Yao in his arms and said, "Don't worry. I will find a way to solve this problem."
"Do you think I'm too coquettish?" Wen Yao raised her head, looked at Huo Jingqian aggrievedly and asked.
"No, it's already amazing that you can accompany me to join the army! I am very considerate of you!" Huo Jingqian said with some self-blame.
"What should I do if I want to go to the toilet?"
"It's okay, I'll find a way," Huo Jingqian said lovingly. He remembered that there was an open space behind the house, and suddenly an idea came to his mind.
After calming Wen Yao down, Huo Jingqian went to the army.
An hour later, a military jeep stopped at the gate of the courtyard.
Huo Jingqian and Qi Fang got out of the car, and then took a few bags of cement from the car.
Just as Wen Yao was wondering what they were going to do, a wheeled cart carrying stones stopped at the gate of the courtyard.
Then I saw several men who looked like soldiers walking into the yard with hoes and shovels.
When they saw the stunned Wen Yao, they greeted her with a smile, "Hello, sister-in-law!"
Wen Yao responded blankly, "Hello!"
Huo Jingqian began to direct everyone to work, moving the stones from the wheelbarrow to the open space behind the house, and then began to dig trenches and pits.
Wen Yao looked at their busy figures and guessed Huo Jingqian's intention.
This is to build a toilet for her.
Wen Yao pulled Huo Jingqian aside and whispered, "Ah Jing, are you going to build a toilet?"
"Yeah," Huo Jingqian nodded.
"This will be too much of a fuss. Will people laugh at us?"
