Lu Ze had known for a while that Yu Yao would bring a refrigerator, so he asked a soldier in the army who knew how to repair electrical wires to help him run an electrical cable.
"Ayao, where would be a good place to put the refrigerator?"
Yu Yao looked at the kitchen, but it was too small to fit everything.
She pointed to the corner of the main room, "Just put it here."
Wu Wanying quickly grabbed bricks and fertilizer bags to put on the ground to prevent it from getting dirty, and then let Lu Ze and Wu Huaiqing move the refrigerator onto it.
Su Meihua glanced at it curiously, "Yu Yao, can we use it now?"
Yu Yao said, "Not yet, there's no electricity."
Lu Ze connected the refrigerator's power cord, opened the refrigerator, and saw that the light in the refrigerator compartment was on.
The crowd cheered, "It's lit up! It's lit up!"
Someone said, "This refrigerator is really strange. There's no one inside, so why is it using a light? That's such a waste of electricity."
"Exactly, it's such a waste. I wonder if it can be turned off."
"Are you stupid? Didn't you see that the light only turned on when Commander Lu opened the refrigerator door? This light definitely doesn't need to be switched on or off; it only turns on when the door is opened."
Some people say that the refrigerator is so cool that you can hide inside to cool off when it gets too hot in the summer, and so on.
Some of the questions stumped Yu Yao, who had been using the refrigerator for many years.
Refrigerators are large items, and very rare ones at that.
Although the Four Olds were being destroyed in this era, ordinary people still valued good omens.
After the refrigerator was plugged in, Wu Wanying asked Yu Yao and Lu Ze to put some fresh vegetables and fruits and a fish in it to refrigerate, symbolizing a bountiful harvest and abundance year after year.
In times of scarcity, having enough food and even a surplus is the simplest and most sincere wish.
Knowing that there were still guests at Yu Yao's house, the military dependents gradually left after watching the excitement.
Dinner was prepared long ago. Cui Zhizhou and Lu Ze were off today, and the two of them personally prepared the dinner, of course, with the help of the quartermaster. They made a large and sumptuous dinner.
At the table, Yu Yao sipped lychee wine, surrounded by the blessings of friends, family, and her lover, experiencing a happiness she had never known before.
After dinner, Wu Wanying and the others went home one after another, leaving only Yu Yao and Lu Ze.
Yu Yao was so happy that she drank a little more wine. She put her arm around Lu Ze's waist and asked him, "I'm so outstanding, don't you have anything to say?"
Lu Ze looked at the little drunkard and said with a smile, "My Ayao is great, I'm proud of you."
Yu Yao was secretly pleased, but she pretended to be dissatisfied and said, "I'm so outstanding, and Commander Lu just wants to say a few words of praise to get rid of me? Isn't that a bit insincere?"
Lu Ze chuckled: "Then what does A Yao think constitutes sincerity?"
Yu Yao replied matter-of-factly, "Qiaoqiao and the others all gave me gifts, so isn't Commander Lu planning to give me anything in return?"
Her eyes lit up when she mentioned something.
"Tell me what you want, and I'll prepare it." His Ayao could have whatever she wanted.
Yu Yao stretched out her arms and wrapped them around his neck. "Whatever I want, you'll give it to me?"
Lu Ze nodded.
Looking into his dark, deep eyes, Yu Yao stood on tiptoe and gently kissed his thin lips. Then she whispered in his ear, "The gift I want is right here, even though it's far away."
Lu Ze raised an eyebrow, as if he didn't understand her meaning. He looked down at her and asked in a hoarse voice, "What is it?"
Yu Yao pinched his high nose. "It's you, Commander Lu! I want you, Commander Lu!"
