Chapter 32: Stop it, we'll see you later in the evening...
Before he even left the team, Huo Beichuan ran into Shen Chunmiao who was walking towards him. Shen Chunmiao was obviously stunned when he saw Huo Beichuan, and blurted out, "Why are you back?"
"What does it have to do with you?" Huo Beichuan didn't want to pay attention to her and just left.
After what happened with Liu Wanzhi, he now keeps his distance from women, let alone this woman who was once engaged to him, so he will stay away from her even further.
Shen Chunmiao was really pissed off by his attitude of treating himself like a scourge. However, when she thought about how Huo Beichuan didn't return home so quickly in his previous life, her unhappiness reached its peak, and the satisfaction she had just felt was completely destroyed.
Huo Beichuan walked all the way to the state-owned restaurant. Although there was no expression on his face, he was a little nervous in his heart. Mainly because he was a little worried that his young wife would blame him.
She clearly wrote to me and sent me things, but I haven't replied at all in such a long time. My wife should be unhappy, right?
Thinking of this, Huo Beichuan became even more disgusted with Liu Wanzhi.
When we arrived at the state-owned restaurant, as expected, Shen Jintao was very busy, while Master Zhuang was obviously much more relaxed. There was really no other way, as many customers specifically asked for Master Shen's cooking when ordering dishes.
Since he is just getting a fixed salary anyway, Master Zhuang is very open-minded and enjoys a quiet life.
What he didn't know was that his peaceful life wouldn't last much longer.
"Wow! That soldier is so handsome!"
Xiao Yan took the time to talk to Xiao Hu.
Xiao Hu looked over and was also amazed. "Aren't your family planning to arrange a marriage for you? Go over and ask them what they want to eat. What if you find that they are right for each other?"
"Forget it, this soldier looks very cool, I can't take him down."
Xiao Yan has a very accurate understanding of his own positioning and is not so self-righteous.
"How do you know if you don't try?" Xiao Hu joked.
However, Xiao Yan still went over to ask Huo Beichuan about his needs. Huo Beichuan looked around and saw that there were indeed a lot of customers in the state-owned restaurant. He felt it would be inappropriate to just sit there and take up a seat without ordering any dishes, so he ordered two dishes, but specifically asked for the chef's cooking.
It's not that he didn't want to try his wife's cooking skills, but mainly because he had seen through the big glass how busy his wife was. Even though the weather was much cooler now, he could see that his wife's face was flushed and beads of sweat were appearing, which made Huo Beichuan feel distressed.
"This person must not know how good and rare our Master Shen's cooking skills are. He actually specifically asked for Master Zhuang's." Xiao Yan muttered to Xiao Hu after ordering the dishes.
"What's the big deal? In fact, Master Zhuang's cooking skills are also very good. Maybe he has never tasted the food made by our Master Shen, or maybe everyone has their own taste."
Xiao Hu said.
The service in those days was not as sophisticated as in later generations. When no one was ordering food, the two of them just stood there and chatted, which was quite relaxing.
Chen Jintao was busy until after six o'clock, when she finally finished her day's work. When she was packing up and getting ready to go home, she heard Xiao Yan and Xiao Hu playing crickets.
"What's wrong with that soldier? He's been eating that dish for a long time?"
"This guy doesn't look like he's here to eat. He seems to be waiting for someone." Xiao Hu also said.
Following their gaze, Shen Jintao met a pair of deep eyes, "Beichuan?"
Huo Beichuan quickly cleared the last bit of food in the bowl, "Wife!"
"Um?"
All the employees of the state-owned restaurant seemed to smell gossip and hurried over.
"Jintao, this is your man? He's so handsome!" Xiao Yan said enviously.
"Well, this is my lover Huo Beichuan." Chen Jintao smiled and was very surprised that he came back suddenly.
Luo Ya was completely convinced when she knew that this soldier was Chen Jintao's husband. How to say it, this woman is simply God's favorite, there is no comparison, absolutely no comparison.
"Hello, I'm Huo Beichuan!" Seeing that his wife seemed to be getting along well with his colleagues, Huo Beichuan greeted others with a smile.
"Xiao Shen, now that your man is back, pack up and leave quickly." Sister Zhang teased.
"Okay, Sister Zhang, I'll bring Beichuan over some other day so I can get to know you guys better." Chen Jintao also blushed a little because of her tone.
After leaving the state-owned restaurant with Huo Beichuan, she still felt it was a little unreal, "Why did you come back so suddenly?"
"Nothing, it's just that the higher-ups saw that I went on a mission right after getting married, so they gave me some more vacation time. There are also some other things that I will slowly tell you about after I get home."
"Okay!" Chen Jintao is not the type of person who likes to get to the bottom of things. Besides, didn't Huo Beichuan say that he would tell her when he got home? There's no need to rush.
"Wife, I'll give you a ride!"
Huo Beichuan was pushing his bicycle, smiling as dazzlingly as a sunflower.
Even though she and this man had become a real couple, Shen Jintao was still dazzled by this smile. This man was really handsome.
In the past, my heart and eyes were full of that idiot Lu Qingshan. How come I didn’t realize that Huo Beichuan, who I grew up with, was so handsome?
When they reached the deserted path, the road was not so smooth. Huo Beichuan said, "Wife, hold me. This road is not so easy to walk on. Don't let you fall."
Of course Shen Jintao had no objection and directly put her arms around the man's waist.
By the way, I touched his abdominal muscles through the fabric of his clothes and was very satisfied.
Huo Beichuan's mouth was dry from her mischievous little hands, and he whispered, "Stop making trouble, I'll serve you well tonight!"
"Shameless!" Shen Jintao felt like a cooked shrimp after hearing what he said.
"Wife, you don't know how much I miss you!"
"Now I know..."
Huo Beichuan rode his bicycle, trying to go as slowly as possible, enjoying the time they were alone together.
He just doesn’t understand these things and still says he is stupid, tsk!
When Huo Beichuan came back, he naturally called Shen Jianmin and others over. Liu Guifen went over early in the morning and asked them to come over for dinner.
Shen Jianmin didn't hesitate and agreed immediately.
Normally, when Xu Xuemei went to the Huo family to learn skills, he and Shen Jidong would not go with her. From time to time, Xu Xuemei would bring some vegetables and meat over. After all, no one's food came from the wind.
It is worth mentioning that the construction of their new house has been completed. Huo Beichuan's return this time is relatively timely, and he can just participate in the new house's beam raising ceremony.
In rural areas, raising the beam is considered the most important step in building a new house. A banquet will also be held at that time. They will naturally be very happy that their son-in-law has returned.
