Chapter 9: Peace Here
Ye Mu was used to being looked at by others. From time to time, a few soldiers would come towards him, pretending to meet him by chance. When they came in front of Ye Mu and Song Yanzhou, they would first salute Song Yanzhou and then say loudly:
"team leader!"
Then he looked at Ye Mu with eyes full of gossip and curiosity, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face: "Hello, sister-in-law!"
At this time, Song Yanzhou glanced at them with a cold face, and they hurried away, looking like they had touched the tiger's butt and were running away first to show their respect.
Ye Mu didn't care about it at first, but after encountering him more and more, Ye Mu realized that it seemed that the soldiers under Song Yanzhou were deliberately creating encounters one by one.
And their focus is on her.
She was like a master in the research institute who had just made some progress on a new invention, and everyone who came in had to come forward to observe for a while.
Even if those people can't understand it, it's worth watching it, and it would be a waste not to watch it.
Ye Mu was speechless about this, but who knew that something even more speechless was yet to come.
There was no car for her to ride alone today, but the military district used a car to take the wives of soldiers here out.
The car was full of women, some with children, and no men.
Ye Mu looked at the car, his brain thinking so fast that he almost overworked his brain, causing a large number of brain cells to die and quickly regenerate. Finally, he was awakened from his daze by Song Yanzhou.
"Give me your hand."
Song Yanzhou stretched out his hand to Ye Mu on the big truck. He had called her several times. Everyone else looked at Ye Mu and him curiously, having the illusion that they were the center of attention.
After taking the train, she didn't want to get on such a collective vehicle.
But no matter what she thought, the technology here would not immediately advance to the level of the interstellar world she was in. She could only reach out and grab Song Yanzhou's hand, and then be pulled into the car by Song Yanzhou, and then sit down with him in the car.
There are a lot of people and the car is very crowded.
Ye Mu was used to a life of luxury in the interstellar space. It would take more than a day or two for him to fully adapt to a world like this.
The technological development levels of the two worlds are not just vastly different, but differ by thousands of years. This is no longer a question of going from luxury to frugality.
It would be fine if you didn’t go out, but if you go out you will feel the disparity and gap between the worlds.
Ye Mu lowered her eyes beside Song Yanzhou, feeling unusually depressed. If she had a choice, she would rather return to her own world.
Although she is dead, her memories of the original owner not having enough food and clothing, including everything she has experienced during this period, make her feel that this is not life in this era, but the legendary tribulation of a god.
When the car started moving forward, everyone swayed due to inertia. The woman who was squeezed next to Ye Mu suddenly pressed on Ye Mu, and Ye Mu was knocked onto Song Yanzhou beside him. Song Yanzhou hurriedly protected her and supported the military wife who was not sitting firmly.
Then he looked down and saw Ye Mu, who looked like she had lost all hope in life. She lay on him motionless, as if she had lost her vitality. Song Yanzhou thought that the military wife had frightened her:
"Sit down first. How about we change seats?"
With so many people watching, it was really inappropriate for her to do so. He gently pushed Ye Mu. Ye Mu thought that it was not because she did not sit properly, but that the driver in front of her, who he did not know, had really bad driving skills.
As expected of a military vehicle driver, he practices the art of escaping on the battlefield, and his driving skills are mainly wild.
Can you be as stable as Song Yanzhou?
Ye Mu didn't say anything after she sat down, but Song Yanzhou was a little worried about her and kept paying attention to her situation.
"Captain Song, is this your wife?"
"Oh, this daughter-in-law is so pretty, but she's so skinny that her bones are almost sticking out."
"Captain Song is taking his wife out to the street? To buy things?"
"I thought Captain Song and Wu Yueying fell in love with each other."
"This wife is too thin to have children. Captain Song, please buy some more meat to feed her."
The military wives teased the two of them one after another, and Song Yanzhou just nodded at them and occasionally replied.
Gradually, everyone noticed his attitude. He didn't seem too enthusiastic about the new bride, and the new bride also seemed to be a little abnormal. They said so much, but Ye Mu just sat there without saying a word and didn't even react.
The military wife who had pressed Ye Mu down before looked at Ye Mu a few times. It was not an accident at all that she pressed Ye Mu down just now, but it was intentional.
She has always been optimistic about Wu Yueying and Song Yanzhou, but who knew that Ye Mu would suddenly appear? This is so infuriating. She is angry for her good sister Wu Yueying!
In her opinion, except Wu Yueying, no one else is worthy of Song Yanzhou, let alone the skinny woman beside him.
Seeing that the other military wives were vaguely angry at Ye Mu for not speaking, she, who had been silent all this time, immediately said:
"Captain Song, your wife's name is Ye Mu, right? Why is she so rude? The sisters-in-law all greeted her, but she didn't say anything, and she didn't even give us a chance?"
"Even if Sister Ye Mu's family is a high-ranking official, isn't it not good to put on airs in front of the sisters-in-law?"
"And from the way she looks, she doesn't look like she comes from a high-ranking official's family."
The others nodded in agreement:
"This girl is really rude. My two-year-old girl knows how to yell for help."
"Captain Song, your sister-in-law is not angry with you, but you still need to teach your wife a lesson, otherwise it will only embarrass you if you take her out in the future."
"Yes, yes. If you don't marry a good wife, your life will be difficult."
Song Yanzhou glanced at the woman next to Ye Mu, lowered his head and said to Ye Mu:
"Come sit next to me."
He stood up and made room for Ye Mu, then sat down next to him. He then said to everyone:
"Ye Mu... My wife suffers from autism. Sisters-in-law, don't be angry. She is not ignoring you on purpose. It's just that the disease has not been cured yet."
Everyone's faces immediately showed surprise and pity, and then they expressed a few sighs, saying that it was a pity that such a young person got sick.
Although most people don't know what autism is, it sounds complicated and they don't want to argue with the patients.
Gradually, the wives of the soldiers stopped paying attention to them. They felt very sorry that the best soldier in the military region was married to a sick wife, but they couldn't say it.
As soon as the topic changed, the military wives started talking about their own household affairs, with laughter from time to time, as well as complaints and grumblings, etc. It was a good way to kill time.
Song Yanzhou was looking after Ye Mu's condition, and whenever the car shook, he would always be the first to reach out and help her steady herself.
She seemed to have no experience at all on how to keep herself seated in a car, but this was normal. Before this period of time, Ye Mu had probably never even seen a car.
He was somewhat helpless about making the fact that she was autistic public.
Originally he didn't want to mention this matter, but Ye Mu was about to become a target and be attacked by the crowd, so he had to speak up to clarify for her.
The woman next to him blushed secretly after Song Yanzhou sat down. Although she was married and had a child, many military wives also admitted that Song Yanzhou was charming.
Some people sometimes think that if they were not married, they would definitely like Song Song Yanzhou. This kind of thing is just a thought, and after thinking about it, put it out of your mind and live your own life well.
Some people have no self-awareness of their own identities. Even though they cannot get what they want, they still have delusions, such as the military wife beside Song Yanzhou.
There were too many people sitting together in the car, and almost everyone's legs were touching each other. This close contact made her heart beat wildly.
Song Yanzhou remained steady in the shaking car. The woman felt the muscles on his legs and couldn't help but move closer to him, pretending to adjust her position and squeezed towards Song Yanzhou.
Song Yanzhou has tried his best to reduce the space for his seat, and the whole sitting method is very proper.
But when he realized that the people around him were getting closer and closer to him, he frowned slightly and moved slightly closer to Ye Mu.
No matter how hard Song Yanzhou tried to take up less space, he could only keep his legs together and straighten his back. His figure and physique were there, so it was impossible for him to shrink too much.
But Ye Mu was petite, and she didn't take up much space. Sitting on her other side was a child of four or five years old. Ye Mu was quite caring towards the human cub, and she tried her best not to squeeze him.
As a result, it was quite difficult for her to sit here, and Song Yanzhou was trying to squeeze in towards her. Wouldn't she be squeezed over and squeeze the little kids next to her?
Ye Mu raised his head and looked at Song Yanzhou. Song Yanzhou noticed her expression in an instant. Her eyes were very clear. When she looked at him, her eyes and face seemed to be filled with a sentence:
Why are you squeezing me?
Song Yanzhou: “…”
He was rarely embarrassed for a moment, and when he met her gaze, he actually felt like he was bullying her.
At this time, the car turned a corner and swung wildly. Ye Mu fell forward directly, and Song Yanzhou quickly reached out to pull her.
As a result, the woman next to him, perhaps because she was not sitting firmly, actually pounced on him. Song Yanzhou was startled and quickly moved towards Ye Mu.
His movements were too big and he directly took up Ye Mu's seat. Ye Mu was pulled by him and did not fall on the truck.
But there was no seat when she returned, and she was in such a hurry that her posture was wrong, so she sat down directly in front of Song Yanzhou, sitting on his military shoes.
Her back hit Song Yanzhou's legs and the back of her head hit his knees. Ye Mu subconsciously raised her hands to cover the back of her head. She sat down so suddenly that she seemed to have fallen on his feet and her butt hurt.
The whole person huddled up in front of him, and the woman next to Song Yanzhou still leaned half of her body on Song Yanzhou.
Everyone in the car was startled by their movement and stared at the three of them in amazement.
"The young comrade who's driving is really good at driving. When I first came here, I was almost thrown off the ground. Captain Song's wife is so thin, wouldn't she be thrown off the ground in the car?"
"Yeah yeah."
"Mrs. Jiang, why are you still lying on Captain Song? Can't you sit still? I've never seen you sit still before!"
Song Yanzhou had no time to care about the woman beside him, and quickly bent down to check on Ye Mu's condition:
"Ye Mu, did you hit your head?"
She sat on the back of his feet and it was difficult for him to get up.
His knee hit the back of her head and it was a slight feeling, but it was nothing to him.
He didn't expect to encounter such a situation, and he thought to himself that he must have a good talk with the driver after getting off the car.
Is this the same as driving a military vehicle during normal driving practice? There's someone sitting in the back!
They are all military wives.
Ye Mu rubbed the back of his head. Song Yanzhou actually wanted to help, but after raising his hand, he hesitated. It would not be good to see so many people around.
He had no choice but to express his concern through words.
"If it hurts a lot, go to the hospital first."
Ye Mu looked up at him and found that he was already sitting with the human cub beside her. She pursed her lips and said:
"My position."
When everyone heard her speak, they were a little surprised and thought she couldn't speak.
Someone looked at her with contempt. That voice was so delicate and coquettish. She must not have spoken properly. She was seducing like a vixen.
But some people are generous and direct:
"Oh, Captain Song's wife is not only beautiful, but also has a nice voice. It sounds so sweet."
"No wonder Captain Song wants to marry Ye Mu. Even a woman likes it. Isn't it much better than those loud and rough voices? Isn't it, Sister Jiang? We still have a long way to go. You better sit tight in the car. Look, you are throwing yourself on Captain Song, leaving no room for Captain Song's wife."
The woman called Jiang's wife had something to hide. She smiled awkwardly and then said loudly, "Everyone is careless. I'm making room for them."
Song Yanzhou ignored her and made room for Ye Mu to come up and sit down.
Then he didn't sit down anymore, but stood up in front of Ye Mu. If the car shook badly, he would use his hands to support himself against the wall.
Standing in the car with a height of about 1.8 meters, he was extremely eye-catching, and the belt buckled around his waist further revealed his figure.
When Ye Mu couldn't sit still, she would reach out and grab the hem of his clothes. She wanted to hold on tightly, but Song Yanzhou reached out and pried it open for her.
"Hold on tight."
He just spoke in a cold voice.
Ye Mu looked up at him, and he lowered his eyes to look at her. The car shook, and Ye Mu reached out and grabbed the military pants on his thigh.
Song Yanzhou held her shoulders, and when the moment passed, he immediately pulled her hand away, and finally couldn't help but remind her:
"Sit still, don't pull at your clothes, and pay attention to your image."
Of course, he couldn't expect Ye Mu to really understand and sit still, so he continued:
"I'm in front and won't be thrown out again."
Ye Mu: I reached out to grab you because I couldn’t sit still.
She didn't know what he was talking about?
Although there is no love between the two, didn’t Ye Qianjun say that they are already husband and wife?
Even if they were only related, he wouldn't be so repulsive, right?
It wasn't like she was going to take his clothes off.
When I was washing her feet last night and applying medicine to her today, didn’t I see him trying to avoid suspicion?
Ye Mu: I don’t understand.
But she still respected others. Since Song Yanzhou expressed this, Ye Mu began to pay attention.
However, the military wife who kept an eye on them from time to time teased Song Yanzhou:
"Your wife can't sit steadily, so what's wrong with her leaning on you? Captain Song, don't be so rigid."
"I've never seen you two be so non-sticky as a newlywed couple."
"That's right, don't be shy..."
Everyone laughed. Song Yanzhou said nothing. Sister Jiang snorted twice.
"Captain Song's wife doesn't look like she's suitable to be a military wife. That's why I say you should marry a wife who can cook and nurse the children at home. Otherwise, it won't do a man much good to marry her."
Everyone agreed with her words and nodded. She said what they hadn't said.
Ye Mu is not suitable to be a military wife, and even less suitable to marry such an outstanding soldier as Song Yanzhou.
Others didn't say anything, they just knew other people's business and they didn't want to say too much. Mrs. Jiang spoke and everyone nodded, but didn't agree. Instead, they continued to discuss other things.
Ye Mu ignored her. Song Yanzhou was a little dissatisfied with what Mrs. Jiang said. Not to mention Ye Mu, no matter who he married, she couldn't keep saying that the person he married was not good and not suitable.
But seeing that Ye Mu didn't respond, he didn't say anything. Ye Mu didn't understand. As a grown man, he shouldn't bother with these two sentences from women.
The road was flat for a distance, and just when Ye Mu thought they were far away from the military area and on a good road, the car suddenly turned another corner. Song Yanzhou's standing figure swayed, but his lower body was stable, and he reacted quickly. He instantly put his hands on the car, bent down slightly and sank down a little to steady himself, but Ye Mu suddenly pounced on Song Yanzhou's waist and hugged him tightly.
Song Yanzhou's body stiffened for a moment, and he straightened up unnaturally. When the car speed increased a bit and stabilized, he said:
"Now that we are out of the mountains, the road is easy to open."
He awkwardly pulled Ye Mu's hand away and pushed her shoulders to make her sit down.
Some people couldn't help but feel jealous when they saw Song Yanzhou's appearance. Although the two of them didn't look very close, they were quite a match.
Ye Mu couldn't sit steadily, but Song Yanzhou stood steadily and could let Ye Mu lean on him at the critical moment.
Their men, even when they have some free time, will not go shopping with them. It's really frustrating to compare yourself with them.
