The female workers at the gate looked into the factory, their gazes falling on Yu Yao, a hint of amazement flashing in their eyes.
Yu Yao wore a mint green tulle dress today, which Wu Wanying made for her.
The cinched waist design and long skirt, along with the fluffy side braid, made her stand out like a bright spot among the sea of black, blue, and gray work uniforms.
"So she was the wife of the People's Liberation Army comrade. She was really fair-skinned and beautiful, and the dress she was wearing was also beautiful."
"And her hair, I don't know how she braided it, it's the first time I've ever seen braids look so good."
Fang Qiaoqiao was also wearing a new dress today. She was a sucker for good looks and loved dressing up. When she heard this, she turned her head to look.
It turned out to be an acquaintance.
"Yu Yao?"
Yu Yao pushed her bicycle out, and before she even reached the door, she heard Fang Qiaoqiao's voice.
Fang Qiaoqiao, the woman who watches the thermometer in the fruit canning workshop, is the one who helps Yu Yao confront Wang Chuntao.
She was wearing a new dress today. Yu Yao didn't recognize her at first, but recognized her when she heard her voice.
"Qiaoqiao, what a coincidence," Yu Yao greeted.
Fang Qiaoqiao ran over with a smile and asked curiously, "Yu Yao, why are you so late getting off work today?"
Since the pretreatment workshop adopted Yu Yao's method, their workshop has been completing its daily tasks quickly and well, and they are the first to leave work in the production group, which Fang Qiaoqiao greatly envies.
Yu Yao smiled and said, "I'm going to find Brother Zhao to fill out the application form for the dessert mix preparer."
“I’ve signed up for this too. If I get accepted, we’ll be colleagues in the same group.” Fang Qiaoqiao was very happy and pulled Yu Yao along with enthusiasm and generosity.
She has an oval face, a few freckles on her nose, and a lively and cheerful personality, making her very likable.
Fang Qiaoqiao looked at her hair up close and thought it looked even better. "Yu Yao, did you braid your hair yourself? It looks so beautiful."
Seeing the light in her eyes, Yu Yao smiled and said, "If you like it, come to our workshop tomorrow at noon and I'll teach you."
"Really?" Fang Qiaoqiao was overjoyed. "Since you say so, then I won't stand on ceremony with you. I really love your hair."
After Fang Qiaoqiao finished speaking, she suddenly pointed to the factory gate and said excitedly, "Yu Yao, look at the gate! That PLA comrade is really handsome."
Yu Yao looked in the direction she was pointing and her eyes lit up with joy when she saw the tall and slender figure.
"He is quite handsome."
It's Lu Ze, he's back.
Fang Qiaoqiao has known Yu Yao for over a month. Although the two cars are far apart, they occasionally chat about gossip and gossip because they share similar interests.
This was the first time she had ever seen Yu Yao speak so highly of any male comrade.
Fang Qiaoqiao turned her head and looked at Yu Yao with some surprise, only to see Yu Yao staring intently at the People's Liberation Army comrade at the door without blinking.
Yu Yao was already married, so of course she wouldn't think that Yu Yao had taken a liking to a People's Liberation Army comrade.
Fang Qiaoqiao looked at Yu Yao, then at the PLA comrade, and suddenly noticed that the PLA comrade opposite her was also looking this way.
The person whose gaze pierced through the crowd was Yu Yao.
Fang Qiaoqiao sensed something and asked hesitantly, "Yu Yao, that PLA comrade wouldn't happen to be your husband, would he?"
Yu Yao nodded and hummed in agreement.
His expression was the same as Lu Ze's usual, with a hint of indifference, as if it were a perfectly normal little thing.
Fang Qiaoqiao was surprised that she had guessed correctly and said enviously, "Yu Yao, you did a great job keeping this a secret. No wonder you were never interested in watching the men at the factory play basketball. You eat so well!"
If her blind date was this good-looking, she would definitely be dating someone already.
The two walked towards the door, and Lu Ze also walked towards them.
Fang Qiaoqiao winked at Yu Yao with a suggestive look, "Aren't you going to introduce us?"
Yu Yao and Lu Ze introduced: "Lu Ze, this is Fang Qiaoqiao who watches the thermometer in our cannery. Qiaoqiao, this is my husband, Lu Ze, a soldier in the island unit."
"Comrade Lu, hello, I'm Fang Qiaoqiao, Yu Yao's colleague." Fang Qiaoqiao smiled and waved to Lu Ze.
"Hello, Comrade Fang, I am Lu Ze, Yu Yao's husband. Thank you for helping my wife before."
"No need to thank me. We are all military dependents. My cousin is from an island compound. By the way, his name is Lei Donglin, and he has a nickname, Lei the Cannon. I don't know if you know him."
Upon hearing Lei Donglin's name, Yu Yao and Lu Ze exchanged a glance, a flash of surprise crossing their eyes.
Yu Yao only knew that Fang Qiaoqiao had a cousin serving in the island army, but she didn't expect it to be Commander Lei. She smiled and said, "Isn't this a coincidence? We are neighbors with Commander Lei."
Upon hearing this, Fang Qiaoqiao suddenly realized, "So you are the loving couple that Sister Meihua mentioned. No wonder you looked familiar when we first met. I've heard my sister-in-law mention you before, but she didn't say your name. Who would have thought it would be such a coincidence?"
The three exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then most of the factory workers had left.
Fang Qiaoqiao checked the time. "Since Commander Lu is here to pick you up, I won't disturb your date. See you tomorrow at noon."
See you tomorrow at noon.
After Fang Qiaoqiao left, Yu Yao and Lu Ze walked outside together.
The two hadn't seen each other for almost a week, and Yu Yao had a lot to say to him.
The two pushed their bicycles and chatted as they walked. Most of the time, Lu Ze listened quietly to Yu Yao's sharing.
He loved her confident and radiant smile when she shared, and the way she beamed with joy when talking about happy things.
She was like the sun on the island, blazing and full of life, so dazzling and charming in his unchanging and somewhat dull world.
