Qin Rou met the friend Lu Yan brought back.

Like Lu Yan, he was wearing a white military uniform, not so serious, wearing a pair of glasses, with a pair of phoenix eyes, very gentle, a bit like her brother-in-law Chen Mian.

"Wife, this is my comrade-in-arms, named Wang Yuanzheng, just call him Lao Wang."

"Hello, Comrade Wang."

"Hello."

Thinking about meeting her husband's guests, Qin Rou wore light blue wide-leg pants and a white shirt today. The clothes were made by a tailor in Guangzhou. The style is simple and generous.

All her hair was tied loosely behind her head, revealing a bright and beautiful face. There were a few strands of hair around her ears. This kind of dress made her look a lot gentler.

——There is a sense of a virtuous wife. Pretending

.

In front of the hall, she teaches her son, beside the bed, and in front of outsiders, she still has to give Lu Yan some face.

"Come in and sit down, I'll bring out the dishes."

Qin Rou cooked the dishes in advance, and Lu Yan went to help her serve the dishes. Qin Rou prepared eight or nine dishes. When guests come, they must be treated well. There are shrimp cakes, fried fish fillets, fried clams, blanched shrimps, flower snails, steamed mantis shrimps, vinegar bean sprouts, shrimp and tofu soup, and a pot of sweet and sour radish.

Look at the color, aroma and taste. I won't say anything else. It's delicious, but Qin Rou likes the sweet and sour radish the most.

As for the other shrimps, fish, clams... it's hard to describe.

Her stomach made a sound of "wanting to eat vegetable leaves". Now Qin Rou understood why those people said that eating abalone and king crab with tears in her eyes was a bad idea.

Eating too much seafood would make you sad.

This sweet and sour radish was especially suitable for her taste. It used small white radishes produced locally on Qiongzhou Island. They were small in size and very juicy!! Cut the small white radishes into coin-sized pieces, marinate them with salt for half an hour, then mix salt, sugar, kumquat, chili pepper, soy sauce, garlic and ginger into a sauce, marinate the radishes in the sweet and sour sauce for three hours. After marinating, the radishes were sweet and sour and juicy, very appetizing!

After the dishes were served, Lu Yan rolled up his sleeves and said, "Old Wang brought some blue crabs. I'll go steam them."

"I'll do it."

"Don't go, wife. I'll do it. These little things are still alive. Be careful not to pinch your hands." Lu Yan smiled and glanced at her, then turned to the kitchen.

Qin Rou followed him to the kitchen door.

Qin Rou had been troubled by Qin Rou's affairs these two days, and she was also a little angry with him, but when she saw this man this evening, she couldn't help but burst out with infinite joy in her body, which made her heart beat fast.

When she saw him, she couldn't control her happiness and joy, just like she couldn't control her tears.

It became her body's instinct.

Qin Rou pursed her lips, and her eyes involuntarily looked at the man who was cleaning the blue crabs. She didn't know if it was because she hadn't seen him for a few days, but she found that Lu Yan had become much more handsome today, and even better looking than on the marriage certificate.

"What are you looking at me for?"

"Steaming."

From the moment he stepped into the Lu family's door, Wang Yuanzheng was stunned. He felt like he had stepped on a landmine. There was a loud bang around him, and everything changed.

The wife that Lu Yan married was really beautiful, refreshingly beautiful, and definitely the dream lover in the minds of most men. No wonder Lu Yan wanted to marry her after seeing her once.

Her voice was even more crisp and pleasant, gentle and pleasant.

Not to mention her way of dealing with people, her temperament and charm, and her gentleness and sweetness when talking to the children.

This is the ideal wife for men.

Wang Yuanzheng: "..."

But this is not right? !!!

Didn't Lu Yan say he married a hot chili pepper?

This hot chili pepper is probably not that spicy? ??? ??? Lu Yan, who doesn't eat spicy food, changed the pepper midway?

What Wang Yuanzheng found even more incredible was Comrade Lu Yan. Comrade Lu was particularly wrong. He didn't say anything just now on the shore. As soon as he entered the door, our Chief of Staff Lu acted like a lackey. He

spoke softly and politely, what an ambitious young man.

Wang Yuanzheng secretly sighed: You are not just from the guard of honor, you, Lu, are from a troupe, right?

You acted in front of him.

Could it be that this couple knew he was coming as a guest and had planned to play a double act and put on a drama in front of him?

- I'll see how you act.

Wang Yuanzheng snorted in his heart. It's a shame that you, Old Lu, thought of playing a loving couple in front of him.

Lu Yan opened a bottle of white wine, poured a glass for Wang Yuanzheng and himself, and drank and ate.

Qin Rou brought the steamed blue crab to the table. At this time, the two children had already eaten their fill and went to the room to draw together. It was said that they had homework for kindergarten.

Wang Yuanzheng asked Lu Yan: "I met Zhou Wei before. I told him that you married your sister-in-law. He was surprised at that time. What a coincidence. You married Qin Rou. He misheard it and thought it was another Tan Rou, Xi Zao Tan, who grew up in the same compound as you."

Qin Rou was going back to the kitchen to get the sauce, but she was stunned when she heard this. She originally planned to ask Lu Yan about this Tan Rou tonight, but Lu Yan, her comrade-in-arms, asked for her first.

She turned to look at Lu Yan, wanting to see how he would react, but found that Lu Yan was eating snails with relish, without even raising his eyebrows.

What did he mean by this?

Even Wang Yuanzheng couldn't understand Lu Yan's reaction at this time. He didn't seem to take what he said seriously at all.

"Lu Yan, why don't you say anything?"

"What? Hey, it seems like I haven't seen Zhou Wei for a few years."

Is Zhou Wei the focus now?

Wang Yuanzheng looked at Lu Yan with a helpless look: "I told him about your marriage, and he actually guessed that you married Qin Rou to compete with your former brother Zhao Jianghong."

"He said that you had liked another Qin Rou before, the childhood sweetheart who grew up in the same compound with you. After she married Zhao Jianghong, you didn't attend Zhao Jianghong's wedding banquet and broke up with him for a woman."

"What?!" Lu Yan threw the snail shell on the table, his handsome eyebrows wrinkled, "What the hell are you talking about?"

"What the hell, just talk about your coincidence. Most coincidences are intentional." Wang Yuanzheng is not stupid. Those who do political work can read people's expressions. When they saw Lu Yan's reaction, they knew that there must be a misunderstanding behind it.

"Fuck, this kind of coincidence, is it a coincidence? Isn't Zhou Wei fucking sick?" "

When did I ever like anyone? This is the first time I've been attracted to someone in 25 years!"

"Bang--" The sauce dish under Qin Rou's hand fell to the ground, and she quickly bent down to pick up the fragments.

"Don't move, be careful not to cut your hands, I'll clean it up." Lu Yan walked over and cleaned up the fragments and residue on the ground neatly.

"You just spoke so loudly and scared me." Qin Rou complained first, and quickly found a reason to suppress the panic in her heart.

——Lu Yan said that he was moved for the first time in 25 years.

It goes without saying who he was moved by.

In front of outsiders, he said it so openly.

"I scared you, then I'll keep my voice down."

"Yeah." Qin Rou nodded, her ears were so hot that they almost spread to her cheeks, and an inexplicable joy filled her heart.

"What were you talking about just now, what Qin Rou?"

Lu Yan was very frank, answering whatever his wife asked, and there was nothing to hide.

"It happened many years ago."

"Then why didn't you go to their wedding?"

"To avoid suspicion." There was indeed another thing here. Lu Yan didn't like this Tan Rou, but Tan Rou liked him. "When I was in the military academy, she wrote me many letters, but I never opened any of them and returned them all to her."

Even on the eve of her wedding, she tried her best to call him and said that as long as he was willing, she would refuse to marry Zhao Jianghong.

Lu Yan just felt puzzled. It was true that they grew up in the same compound, but he had no contact with Tan Rou. It would be even more ridiculous to say that they were childhood sweethearts.

His relationship with Zhao Jianghong was actually better.

Lu Yan went to Bincheng to study at a military academy, while Zhao Jianghong later stayed at a naval academy in Jiaodao. The two of them had little contact and their relationship faded.

They both studied at military academies with closed management, and even their families rarely saw each other, let alone other people.

Zhao Jianghong wanted to marry Qin Rou, and Qin Rou called him, and Lu Yan was confused by them.

- I've been sailing on the sea since I graduated, who cares about all your twists and turns.

Qin Rou: "..."

So that's it.

If she had known, she should have asked directly at the beginning.

Lu Yan was amazed: "You think Zhou Wei has a brain full of water? It's a pity that he can think of such a thing."

"Who am I, Lu Yan? If I like a woman, I will definitely marry her as soon as possible."

"Wife, don't you think so?"

Qin Rou: "..."

- You are a piece of shit.

You are the one with a brain full of water, right? !

He didn't say a word during the first blind date and went back to submit a marriage application. She thought this man was stupid.

You idiot, is that how you act when facing the person you like?

He nodded with a mysterious look on his face and agreed that they would live together in the future, making her think that this guy chose her just to complete the marriage mission.

Qin Rou: "..."

How could I fall in love with an idiot.

Qin Rou closed her eyes, forget it, she taught her son in front of the hall and taught her husband by her pillow, there were outsiders around, so she gave him some face.

"Yes, you are right."

"That's right, come on, Lao Wang, continue drinking."

"Wife, I will peel the crab for you, I found out before that you like to eat crab the most."

Lu Yan was quite observant, Qin Rou really liked to eat crab, Lu Yan peeled a big bowl of crab meat for her, Qin Rou ate a piece of snow-white crab meat, and fed the largest piece of crab paste inside to Lu Yan's mouth.

"Don't you like to eat this?" Lu Yan was puzzled, he had clearly seen Qin Rou like to eat it before.

Qin Rou smiled and looked at him.

Just because I like it the most, I give it to you, silly dog.

Although Lu Yan had joked before that he had "invited Wang Yuanzheng to his house to listen to the radio", he actually couldn't do such a tasteless thing. The radio was properly placed in the room, and he didn't mention this matter, nor did he take it out to deliberately annoy people.

It was Wang Yuanzheng who spoke first: "Take out your radio and let me listen to it."

Qin Rou: "..."

Are you really coming to our house to listen to the radio?

After the meal, Lu Yan and Wang Yuanzheng both drank a lot of wine. Qin Rou went to cook a bowl of sobering soup for them. Lu Yan was reluctant to drink it, thinking it was too sour, but in the end he drank it obediently.

There was no entertainment activity late at night, so she turned on the radio, Lu Yan made some hot tea, and Qin Rou went to get some peanuts and melon seeds, as well as the coconut candy and coconut cookies she had made these past two days, so that they could have tea and chat.

The two children were already asleep by now, as they were very noisy during the day and went to bed early at night.

After tuning the channel, Qin Rou listened attentively to the broadcast on the radio.

The radio brought by Lu Yan had excellent sound quality, and the loud voice of a male announcer came out from the loud speaker. What was going to be broadcasted was a nighttime cultural and artistic program.

The soundtrack of a movie was about to be played.

When the sound came out, Qin Rou realized what a coincidence, it was the movie that she and Lu Yan had watched that day.

There were few movies in this era. When a movie was released, it was fine if the number of people who watched the movie was not counted. If the number was counted, many people would be surprised. The commune had to play the movie collectively, the factory had to play it, the cinema had to play it, and even the radio station had to play it.

"Lu Yan, listen!"

Lu Yan had already heard it and smiled, "It's the movie we watched that day."

Qin Rou said, "It seems to be the middle clip. There is a nice song here."

Wang Yuanzheng swallowed the words he was about to say: "..."

- It was also the movie we watched that day.

"Old Wang, this is the movie my wife and I watched when we first met."

Wang Yuanzheng: "...So you guys went to the cinema."

Haha, he said something that he didn't know whether to say or not.

- How come your old Lu went to watch a movie with someone else a few days later and asked him to watch this movie again?

Think about Lu Yan's performance that day...

So that's how it is.

Old Lu, old Lu, you are really amazing.

Wang Yuanzheng drank tea and looked at the radio. He couldn't hear anything in his ears. He just felt that the tea in his mouth became more bitter.

He must remember this radio forever and remember the previous lessons.

"Old Lu, I have to learn from you in the future." Wang Yuanzheng looked at Lu Yan seriously and said this with extra seriousness.

When he first entered the room, he thought the couple was acting in front of him, but now he understood that they didn't need to act, and they didn't even need to say anything. The tacit understanding and eyes that naturally revealed in their actions were exactly the warm family life he longed for.

There was no need for words to make vows of eternal love, just integrate into every bit of life through actions.

It's better to do it directly than to say more. Comrade Lao Lu still did it well.

Lu Yan: "?"

What are you learning? Lao Wang.

"You, you... Old Wang, why don't you tell me what those old group leaders told you when we were in training?"

Lu Yan wanted to take the opportunity to learn from them again. When Comrade Old Wang was talking to a partner before, he studied these things every day, studying how husband and wife get along, how men can coordinate the conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, whether the new daughter-in-law can get along with the elder and younger sisters-in-law...

At that time, Old Wang heard a lot of experiences from people who had experienced it, saying how his family was after he married Xiao Ma, how the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law would be in the future, how the couple should raise children... They talked about it in a very clear and logical way.

Lu Yan didn't listen to any of it.

Now he thinks it's good to listen.

"Those? There's nothing good to say about those." Wang Yuanzheng waved his hands. Now he thinks those are useless.

If they were useful, why isn't he the one with a wife and children at home?

"Lao Lu, you can give me some advice in the future."

Lu Yan: "..."

You are not right.
