Seeing this, Lu Yue couldn't stop smiling. Although she felt a little uncomfortable taking out a lot of cakes to try, the final result was still good.
Shen Tingwan helped out while smiling, "Sister Lu Yue, if this continues, I estimate that all the food we prepared for lunch will be sold out."
Lu Yue nodded repeatedly. She roughly calculated that after deducting the cost, she could earn five dollars this morning!
This is not a small amount for an ordinary family.
Thinking of this, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Shen Tingwan's estimation was correct. Before noon, the cakes in front of them had almost been sold out.
Shen Tingwan said, "Sister Lu Yue, I'll go pick up Ranran and the others first, and then I'll help you close the stall."
Lu Yue couldn't help but waved her hand, "No need, it's just a small amount, I can get it back myself."
Shen Tingwan nodded, glanced at the time, and left in a hurry.
When Shen Tingwan walked to the gate of the family compound with her two children, she saw Lu Yue who had packed up her stall.
Lu Yue stepped forward and greeted him, "Wanwan, I'm back."
As they talked, they walked towards the family compound.
Lu Yue's gaze paused, "Wanwan, this is..."
She was completely stunned.
Could I be hallucinating? Why did I see Captain Jiang standing with a woman?
Following her gaze, Shen Tingwan saw Jiang Yan looking at the woman in front of him with an indifferent expression.
The woman pursed her lips, with a cute smile on her face, and was talking to Jiang Yan.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Yan did not leave, and the two seemed to be having a good chat.
After seeing Shen Tingwan saw it, Lu Yue asked in confusion, “Why does this little girl look so familiar?”
Shen Tingwan asked, "Sister Lu Yue, do you know which girl this is?"
The woman was not very old and didn't even look married.
Lu Yue has lived in the staff housing compound for so many years, how could she not know every household?
But she was obviously stunned for a moment, "I really can't remember it for a while."
Shen Tingwan didn't say anything.
Ran Ran didn't know what the two adults were talking about, so she shouted crisply, "Dad! We're back!"
Jiang Yan's gaze fell on the three of them, unconsciously filled with a bit of tenderness.
The woman also looked over here, "Brother Jiang Yan, is this my sister-in-law and the children?"
Mentioning Chen Tingwan, Jiang Yan raised the corners of his lips slightly and nodded.
Seeing this, Shen Tingwan walked up to him with the two children and said with a smile, "Jiang Yan, who is this...?"
Before Jiang Yan could say anything, the woman said, "Hello, I'm Zhou Xiang."
Shen Tingwan quickly searched for the surname Zhou in his mind and screened out several leaders in the family compound.
Jiang Yan seemed to sense her doubt and said, "Zhou Xiang is the daughter of Captain Zhou."
Shen Tingwan nodded and smiled, "Hello, my name is Shen Tingwan, and I am Jiang Yan's wife."
Zhou Xiang smiled faintly and nodded.
After hearing Captain Zhou's name, Lu Yue immediately understood where her sense of familiarity with the girl in front of her came from.
Zhou Xiang also grew up in a staff housing compound when he was a child. Later, he went to a better high school. I heard that he was admitted to university. Now he has graduated and returned.
When Lu Yue first got married, she had some impression of this little girl, but she didn't expect that she had grown up so much in the blink of an eye.
Shen Tingwan didn't know what she was thinking.
Jiang Yan stepped forward and picked up the things in her hand, "Let's go home."
Shen Tingwan went upstairs with her shoulder to shoulder.
Zhou Xiang looked at the two men's backs thoughtfully without saying a word.
Seeing this, Lu Yue just said a few polite words and turned away.
After returning home, Shen Tingwan took the two children to the bathroom to wash their hands.
After coming out, she realized belatedly that Jiang Yan had been standing at the door waiting for her.
She was slightly stunned, "What are you standing here for?"
Jiang Yan looked at him steadily and spoke slowly, "When I first joined the army, I had a good relationship with Zhou Xiang. Captain Zhou was also very kind to me, so I would help him look after Zhou Xiang from time to time."
After listening for a while, Shen Tingwan realized that something was wrong.
It seems that Jiang Yan thought she was overthinking and was explaining to her?
Shen Tingwan was a little amused and said, "What are you thinking? That's not what I meant."
Jiang Yan pursed his lips and said seriously, "I saw you with a stern face when I went upstairs just now. I thought you were unhappy."
Shen Tingwan was helpless.
The man was indeed considerate, but she really didn't mean that.
Shen Tingwan said, “I didn’t think too much, nor did I doubt you.”
Jiang Yan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
Shen Tingwan pondered the contents of the original book and found that there was no character named Zhou Xiang in it.
Her face turned cold.
Could it be that due to changes in the plot, the characters that appear have become uncertain?
Thinking of this, Shen Tingwan pursed his lips, unable to think of any countermeasures for a while.
She sighed.
Whether it is good or bad, let’s wait and see.
The next day, Jiang Yan went out as usual, planning to join the army.
As soon as he went downstairs, he saw a familiar figure.
Zhou Xiang, who was dressed casually, saw him and said with a smile, "Brother Jiang Yan, you're up so early?"
Jiang Yan nodded indifferently.
Zhou Xiang took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat off her face, a sweet smile on her face, "Have you eaten yet? I just bought some breakfast, you can take some."
Jiang Yan subconsciously wanted to refuse, but Zhou Xiang had already handed it over, with a hint of not allowing rejection, and almost forcefully stuffed it into Jiang Yan's hand.
Zhou Xiang asked, "How come it's been so long since we last met? Brother Jiang Yan seems to have become distant from me? Why do we have to be so clear about the distinction between us?"
Jiang Yan pursed his lips and said thank you stiffly, "Thank you."
The corners of Zhou Xiang's lips curled up in an inaudible arc.
"It's okay, I'll go home first!"
Jiang Yan nodded, turned around and left the family compound.
Zhou Xiang went up to the second floor and took advantage of the gap in the stairs to look at Jiang Yan's tall back.
She looked at him intently for a few seconds, said nothing, and turned away.
After going up a few steps, I met an acquaintance on the stairs.
She looked at the person in front of her, "What's going on?"
Guo Rong looked at her with an ambiguous smile and said, "Miss, you are Xiangxiang who just returned from Captain Zhou's house, right?"
Zhou Xiang nodded, "Who are you?"
Guo Rong introduced herself, "I'm Guo Rong, you can just call me Sister Rong."
Zhou Xiang nodded nonchalantly, "Sister Rong."
She was about to leave when Guo Rong stopped her, "I just saw you talking to Captain Jiang. Are you two familiar with each other?"
Zhou Xiang paused and replied softly, "It's not bad. When I was little, I always looked for Brother Jiang Yan to play with me."
Guo Rong nodded thoughtfully, "So that's how it is."
Zhou Xiang glanced at her and asked, "Sister Rong, are you familiar with Wanwan?"
The moment she heard Shen Tingwan's name, Guo Rong's face darkened.
