Chapter 243 I will treat you well
The couple took half an hour to come out of the house. The others had already finished their breakfast. Sun Shufen left some food for them and looked at Gu Qingqing with the look of someone who had been there before.
Gu Qingqing wanted to explain, but was afraid that the more she thought about it, the more she would misunderstand, so she just gave up.
"Where are Xiaotu and Xiaoxu?" She looked around.
"It's time to go to school. The two kids don't want to go today. They really want to play with Tuantuan and Niannian."
Gu Qingqing tightened her grip on the chopsticks and said embarrassedly, "Auntie, we have to go to the train station this afternoon, maybe..."
"It's okay, it's okay," Sun Shufen said, although she was a little reluctant, but she also understood: "Yesterday I heard from Captain Chu that Ah Sui is having some problems with the climate here. It's not easy for him to adapt to the climate here for the first time."
Chu Dai sat down next to Gu Qingqing, picked up a white flour steamed bun, broke off half and put it in the woman's bowl.
Gu Qingqing picked up some salted vegetables and ate some steamed buns with chopsticks. "I didn't adapt well when I first came here, but I didn't react as much as he did. Ah Sui's physical condition is not very good."
His health was worse when he was on the island, probably because he didn't have much nutrition when he was a child. He was often sick and always had to go to the clinic.
"Then you have to nourish him well. Feed him more meat and let him exercise more. Our Xiaoxu runs around with the little soldiers in the regiment every day. He is in good health and rarely catches a cold."
"They are eating. Chu Dai also ordered fresh milk for them. They are better now than before. They were really too thin before." Gu Qingqing felt distressed whenever she thought about it.
After chatting for a while and finishing breakfast, Gu Qingqing helped to clean up the dishes, and then went outside to wait for the man at the guard gate.
Chu Dai drove out in a small truck. The rear compartment was also large enough to carry people but without a roof. Gu Canyang and Gu Qinglie sat there, each holding the two little ones in their arms, clinging to the edge of the car with one hand.
Shen Sui preferred to be outside in the wind rather than inside the car, so he also sat in the back.
Gu Qingqing opened the car door and got in.
"Or are we going back to where we were before?" She closed the car door and asked sideways.
"Well, I wonder if the old man's camel team is still there. If not, we can only come back." The man turned the steering wheel and left the regiment.
Two years have passed, the scenery hasn't changed much, but most people have changed.
Gu Qingqing rolled down the car window and squinted at the scenery along the way.
The sun was not that strong in the morning, and the morning breeze was refreshing. The man was not driving fast, and only fine dust was stirred up.
From behind came Gu Qinglie's clear laughter and the playful sounds of two little guys. Little Niannian knew that he couldn't kick his uncle, so he waved his two little hands, making the crisp sound of silver bells.
Gu Qingqing recalled the sound of camel bells approaching from afar in the desert two years ago, and the slender figure leading the camel.
She subconsciously tilted her head and saw the man's smooth profile, and couldn't help but smile.
Chu Dai glanced at the woman and raised the corners of his lips.
The further we go, the sparser the trees become, and all we see is endless yellow sand with no end in sight.
A flaming sun was hanging over the desert. She raised her hand slightly. From this angle, it seemed within her reach.
"Brother." she said.
"Um."
"I forgot to buy a camera." She said with some regret.
"I brought it." He increased the speed to avoid the wheels sinking into the deep sand.
"Ah?" Gu Qingqing turned to look at him in disbelief: "When did you buy it? How come I didn't know about it?"
"I heard you mention it before, so I asked someone to buy it for me. It was delivered to me before I came to the Corps." The man laughed softly, "A Sui said he hid it in his bag to give you a surprise."
Gu Qingqing: "...under Tuantuan and Nian Nian's diaper?"
"Is that so?" He wasn't quite sure. It was Shen Sui who put it there.
She rubbed her forehead and said, "I was wondering why I felt something prickly when I took their clothes last night."
The man just laughed.
Gu Qingqing finished her mumbling and looked at him with sparkling eyes: "Brother, I find you are very good."
"What do you mean?" the man asked.
"You always remember what I say. You always satisfy me no matter what I want." Gu Qingqing smiled and said, "Why are you so nice?"
"It wasn't this good before. I figured it out after I got married." Chu Dai glanced at the poplar trees passing by the window and estimated that they were almost at the lake. "You suffered a lot when you married me. I can't bear to let you suffer any more."
Gu Qingqing opened her mouth, wanting to say something but didn't say anything, her eyes fell on the man's thin wrist.
He was wearing a black cotton and linen shirt that he had asked his little girl to make on the island. At that time, Gu Qingqing felt that he was the only one in the house who could pull off the dark-colored fabrics.
The sleeves were rolled up slightly, revealing the white wrist bones.
He was thin, but he was able to support the whole family steadily, and she always felt safe around him.
Never been wronged.
Reaching out and grabbing the man's wrist, she said softly, "Brother, I will treat you well."
The man lowered his eyes to look at the woman's slender fingers, letting her put them on his arm, and snorted and laughed, "I don't believe you."
They may be affectionate and loving one minute, and turn against each other the next because of those two little guys.
Chu Dai could no longer remember how many times she blurted out seductive words because she was excited and then forgot them the moment she turned around.
"I'm serious." She said, "I'll make you some soup and porridge when we get home. I'll make sure you're as strong as Goudan."
"Okay," the man said, "We'll see."
Gu Qinglie held his little nephew in one hand, his strong left arm grasping the crossbar next to him. His ears moved and he said, "Camel bell sound."
Gu Canyang raised his eyes inadvertently and saw a group of camels marching in an orderly manner from the end of the desert. If you didn't look carefully, you would think they were ants because they were too far away.
The melodious sound of camel bells came closer and closer. Little Tuantuan tilted her head and asked, "Chirp~ Bug?"
"It's not a bug," the man said, lifting him higher so he could see it more clearly. "It's a camel."
"Kakakak!" the kid repeated, wondering: "What is akakakak? Chirp~"
Gu Qinglie laughed unbridledly beside him: "Our Tuantuan really knows how to pronounce words. The words that should be clear are not clear."
The little Niannian in his arms curiously climbed the railing, stepped on his uncle's legs and stood on tiptoe: "Chirp! Look at Niannian~ Lift it up high!"
"Okay, uncle will hold us high every year." Gu Qinglie laughed heartily and with a little effort he let the kid sit on his shoulders.
Little Niannian was not afraid either. He stared ahead with his big black eyes and clapped his hands: "Haha! Play with Niannian~"
He trusted his uncle so much that he was not afraid of falling at all. His clear laughter echoed over the desert.
Gu Qingqing also saw the groups of camels, and the hunched back of the person leading a camel in the front, who should be the old man.
She smiled and said, "Looks like we are lucky, brother." If we had come a little later, we might not have been able to meet him.
Chu Dai smiled and found a place to park.
The two kids couldn't wait to get out of the car and ran happily in the desert. They fell down and left a sand pit, then got up and headed towards the camel happily.
Shen Sui and Gu Qinglie followed them, lest the two little guys run away in the blink of an eye.
Chu Dai pulled out a black luggage bag from the rear compartment. Shen Sui's clothes had been taken out of it. Inside were diapers, milk bottles, and milk powder for the kids, as well as a jug filled with warm water.
There were also some pastries and snacks wrapped in brown paper, in case they were hungry.
At the bottom is a black single-lens Dongfeng camera.
The man picked it up and handed it to the woman behind him.
Gu Qingqing fiddled with it for a while, but didn't quite know how to use it, so she leaned her back against the car door, folded her arms, and slightly raised her head to look at Gousheng in the distance.
"Brother, how do you use this?"
Gu Canyang lowered his eyes to take a look, then took the camera from her hand, neither fast nor slow: "This is the shutter, give me the film."
Gu Qingqing hurried over.
Chu Dai raised his eyebrows slightly. What did this little woman mean? Did she think he wouldn't do it and just skipped it?
OK.
The old man walked slowly but steadily. When he saw the car coming, he knew it was the Corps members coming. He led Camel over and asked if he needed help.
When the two little guys saw such a big camel, their eyes widened. They grabbed Gu Qinglie's trousers and kept pulling, "Chirp! Cluck!"
“Hahahaha.” Gu Qinglie was a little amused. He greeted the old man and lifted his little nephew onto the saddle. “Ride a camel every year.”
He is very familiar with the old man, so there is no need to say much.
Little Tuantuan couldn't stand any longer and waved her hands: "Chirp! Chirp!!!"
Gu Qinglie then carried the little fellow beside his legs to another camel and asked Shen Sui, "Do you want to ride it?"
Shen Sui's eyes moved intentionally, but he still shook his head: "I'm watching Nian Nian."
"Don't worry, he's holding on to the saddle." Gu Qinglie turned around and saw the kid lying on the camel's hump, holding it tightly, with no fear in his eyes but only excitement.
Although I wasn't standing by them, I still kept an eye on the two brothers so that I could be there to help if anything unexpected happened.
Although Shen Sui was quite tall, it was still a bit difficult for him to climb onto the camel. While he was thinking about how to get up, Gu Qinglie simply grabbed his waist and lifted him up, sitting him steadily.
Gu Qinglie was very tall. Shen Sui was barely taller than him when he sat on the camel. He grinned and said, "If you have anything, feel free to ask me anytime."
Hearing the hidden meaning in his words, Shen Sui felt warm in his heart and nodded: "Thank you, second brother."
"We are brothers, why be polite?" Gu Qinglie touched the back of his head and walked to Xiao Tuantuan with Xiao Niannian's camel, standing side by side with him.
"Captain Chu!" The old man quickened his pace and walked to the front of the truck, panting slightly: "It really is you."
It looked a bit like it just now, but I can't confirm it.
He didn't know that Chu Dai had been transferred two years ago. Later, when he met soldiers who were training in the Corps and asked why they hadn't seen Captain Chu for so long, he learned that he had been transferred.
"I thought it would be difficult to see you again." He was also old, and those who were transferred from the Corps rarely returned.
"You are still so energetic." Chu Dai took another military green water bottle from the luggage bag and handed it to him: "Drink some water slowly."
"No, no, I have some here." The old man had an old kettle hanging on his waist. He tapped the kettle and gulped down half a kettle of water. He looked at the brother and sister who were fiddling with the camera next to him and was stunned for a moment.
"Is this the girl from before?" Captain Chu seemed to have brought her here to ride a camel two years ago!
"Yes," Chu Dai hooked his fingers around the military green water bottle strap, smiling, "She's my wife now. Bring her back to see me."
