Fu Ming pressed her: "In a word, do you want a ride? If you do, we'll wait for you tomorrow morning."
"I, I'll think about it." Zheng Wenjing was a little tempted, but she couldn't trust Fu Mingshi.
From her perspective, Fu Ming is not someone who would help out of kindness.
She was afraid that if she trusted him, she would be cheated.
Fu Ming glanced at her unhappily. "It's just a simple sentence. What's there to think about? Instead of taking a ride with our transport team, do you want to go to the commune to transfer? That's a long way around. If you go in the morning, you won't get to the army until dark. Just one day off isn't enough."
After hearing what Fu Ming said, Zheng Wenjing's heart began to beat fast. She wanted to take a ride, but her intuition told her that there must be something wrong, and she became even more hesitant for a moment.
At this moment, a steady male voice sounded behind him.
"Zheng Zhizhi, are you going to the army? Zheng Zhi, I'm also going to the army to see my sister tomorrow. If you don't mind, we can keep each other company."
This sound came like timely rain, and to Zheng Wenjing's ears it was like the sound of nature.
Zheng Wenjing immediately agreed: "Okay, Squad Leader Han. I'll keep you company."
Compared with the good-versus-evil Fu Ming, Zheng Wenjing would rather make friends with Han Shuo.
Han Shuo is down-to-earth, capable and helpful. He became the squad leader of the second class of male educated youth class just one year after joining the company. In the second year, he was commended by the group for his hard work and courage to contribute to the collective and the land. His future is bright.
There was also news from the company that if he could keep up this style, he might even be able to compete for a place in the regiment's Agricultural and Soldier University in two years.
Zheng Wenjing felt that since Han Shuo had such a good predecessor, he would most likely not do anything that would destroy his predecessor.
So if you keep him company, your safety will definitely be guaranteed, if nothing else.
Zheng Wenjing smiled and waved towards Fu Ming: "Fu Zhizhi, thank you for your kindness, but it's okay. Squad Leader Han and I have the same destination, so it's more convenient for me to accompany him."
"It's up to you." Fu Ming said nothing more and turned away.
Seeing Fu Ming leave, Zheng Wenjing breathed a sigh of relief.
After leaving the transport team, Zheng Wenjing turned to look at Han Shuo and said gratefully, "Squad Leader Han, thank you for helping me out just now. Otherwise, I don't know what I should do."
Han Shuo smiled and shook his head: "You're welcome. We're all members of the same company, so it's only natural for us to help each other. Fu Ming isn't a good person, so try to stay away from him in the future."
"Hmm?" Zheng Wenjing was stunned for a moment, blinked, and asked him, "Squad Leader Han, do you know something?"
Han Shuo didn't answer directly, but just said: "Don't ask, knowing too much is not good for you."
"Okay." Zheng Wenjing lowered her eyes with some hope.
Han Shuo asked him, "What are you going to do in the army?"
Zheng Wenjing said: "Yun Qiao gave birth to a child, I want to go to the army to see her."
Han Shuo nodded, indicating that he understood.
Zheng Wenjing asked him, "What about you? Were you just helping me out, or are you really going to the army too?"
"I am going, but I haven't decided on a specific date yet." Han Shuo said frankly.
Zheng Wenjing said, "Captain Han, you don't have to force yourself. If you have something to do, I can give you a ride."
"I'm not forcing you, so don't feel any pressure." Han Shuo explained, "Actually, it doesn't matter to me when I go. My sister doesn't have a job, so she's free no matter what day I go. Since you're going tomorrow, then go tomorrow. It'll be great for us to keep each other company."
"That's good." Zheng Wenjing breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's settled then." Han Shuo smiled. "I'll borrow a bicycle from someone and leave early tomorrow morning."
"Okay." Zheng Wenjing said, "We'll pass by the team headquarters on our way out. I promised Doctor Guan I'd help him carry his things."
"Can."
After agreeing on the departure time for tomorrow, the two returned to the educated youth compound together, and then returned to their respective dormitories.
Zheng Wenjing entered the house, and Wang Ru pulled her aside and asked, "Wenjing, didn't you go to ask for leave from Company Commander Yang? Why did you end up coming back with Squad Leader Han?"
"We bumped into each other on the way," Zheng Wenjing explained. "He also happened to be going to the army to see Han Rou tomorrow. We chatted for a while and it was a good idea for us to be together."
"Oh, I see." Wang Ru didn't ask any more questions, and the topic naturally turned to Han Rou.
"Han Rou was lucky. She had her brother to look after her when she went to the countryside. If she didn't want to work, she didn't have to do any dirty or strenuous work. When she wanted to get married, she went to a social gathering and met a high-ranking cadre at the level of deputy regiment leader. She married him smoothly and became the regiment leader's wife. Her life is pretty stable."
"You only see the superficial benefits. Why don't you see that the man she married is more than ten years older than her and is a second marriage. If she marries him, she will become a stepmother to her previous child." Zheng Wenjing said, "Being a stepmother is not that easy. You will inevitably suffer from both sides."
"Being a stepmother isn't easy for others, but it's different for Han Rou. She's very cunning and can manipulate people like a toy. Even if she marries to be someone's stepmother, it's only others who will suffer."
"That's true," Zheng Wenjing said, "but they are siblings after all. They had such a big fight before, and it seemed like they were about to cut off contact, but now they've reconciled."
Wang Ru: "I've already said she can manipulate people. Squad Leader Han loves her so much, but she has her in his control. How could he really just ignore her?"
Zheng Wenjing sighed: "Yes, he has a good brother, we can't compare to him."
She also wanted to have a good brother who loved and spoiled her, so that she wouldn't have to go to the countryside with a brother to support her.
Unfortunately, she only has one stinky little brother.
He's just a little brat and she has to coax him.
Wang Ru changed the subject: "Let's not talk about her. Wen Jing, what time are you going out tomorrow?"
"I have an appointment with Squad Leader Han at 7 o'clock in the morning. What's wrong? Are you busy?"
"Nothing much. I just felt that since I've known Yun Qiao for a while and know she's had a baby, it wouldn't be right not to give her something." Wang Ru said, "My relationship with her isn't as close as yours, so I won't give her anything expensive. Just two taels of brown sugar. Can you bring it to her for me?"
"The gift may be small but the thought is great. I will definitely bring it to you." Zheng Wenjing replied.
"Okay, then it's settled. I'll give you the brown sugar tomorrow morning." After Wang Ru finished speaking, the two chatted for a while. When it got dark, they went to the cafeteria to eat together, and then came back to wash up and rest.
Zheng Wenjing had been waiting for the day when Yunqiao would give birth, so she had prepared things for Yunqiao in advance, including two cans of malted milk and a pair of tiger-head shoes for children.
She made the tiger-head shoes by herself. She had never made them before, so she asked Mrs. Qin to help her cut out the pattern. She would ask Mrs. Qin for advice whenever she had time. Under Mrs. Qin's guidance, she embroidered and sewed them together stitch by stitch. Although the finished product was still ugly, it took her two months of free time.
But she felt that Yun Qiao would not mind that the shoes she made were ugly.
Yun Qiao was so gentle and considerate that he only felt sorry for her finger that was pricked by the needle.
