Chapter 4: How’s your stamina?

Huo Jingyuan's eyes widened.

Why are you suddenly asking about your own physical strength?

Huo Jingyuan pondered for a moment, looked into her eyes, and said seriously: "Comrade Jiang Ci, I have won the first place in three events in the Northwest Military Region every year. My physical strength is beyond doubt. I will let you see it when I return to the Northwest Military Region."

"No need for the Northwest Military Region, tonight will do."

"ah?"

Huo Jingyuan was full of questions when he heard this. He felt that he couldn't understand Jiang Ci. She always spoke boldly and with hidden meanings.

"How are you going to show your physical strength tonight?" Huo Jingyuan asked.

Could it be that he wanted to let his comrades in the Jingshi Military Region compete with him in physical strength?

Wen Ci raised his eyebrows: "Really don't understand?"

Huo Jingyuan shook his head: "I don't understand."

Wen Ci looked straight at Huo Jingyuan. They stood under the shade of the tree, with the sound of cicadas above their heads. She raised her lips and said word by word, "Those are the things that newlyweds should do."

The word "干" has a stronger tone.

Huo Jingyuan understood immediately, his ears suddenly turned red, and his wheat-colored cheeks showed a bit of embarrassment, and he lowered his head.

Seeing that his face was red, Wen Ci smiled and pointed to the big red words on the wall, "Eugenics, Comrade Huo, we should also call for a response."

He has been in the military area for many years, living with a bunch of men. He only heard them talk about their wives being very reserved, but why is it that when it comes to him...

-

Suddenly, Wen Ci heard the muttering of middle-aged women. She turned around and saw several middle-aged women standing behind them. She couldn't help but tilt her head.

"Is this Xiao Huo?"

"Yeah, he looks a lot like Mr. Huo."

"I heard that Xiao Huo married into the Jiang family, so the girl next to him is the Jiang family's daughter, right?"

Wen Ci just frowned and was about to speak when a big hand held her. Huo Jingyuan winked at her, then a gentle smile appeared on his face and he called out, "Aunt Chen, Aunt Zhang, Aunt Wang, Aunt Li."

Those who can be allocated houses in the military compound are family members who have made contributions.

Huo Jingyuan was no stranger to the middle-aged women in front of him. They had served as medics under his grandfather and were now retired.

"It's really Xiao Huo."

Several people came forward immediately, looked at Huo Jingyuan, then looked at Wen Ci, and joked: "Everyone says that the daughter of the Jiang family is beautiful, but this is the first time I've seen one."

Wen Ci smiled.

"Where is Xiao Huo serving as a soldier now?"

Huo Jingyuan replied: "Northwest Military Region."

"What position?"

Huo Jingyuan smiled but didn't answer. They immediately realized that they had gone too far. They could talk about the military region, but it was not convenient to reveal the military rank.

"When can I drink your wedding wine?"

"I still remember that the old chief had hoped that you would get married and have children, but now..."

As they talked, they began to feel sad.

Seeing the sad faces of the aunts, Huo Jingyuan replied gently, "I don't have much time for the holiday this time, so I don't have time to hold a banquet."

"How can this be possible! Come to my aunt's house tonight and I'll cook a table of food for you, and it will be like your wedding wine!"

Wen Ci felt the enthusiasm of the aunts, but she was not used to this unfamiliar enthusiasm. She reached out and pulled Huo Jingyuan's sleeve, and whispered, "Jingyuan, I have to go back to the Jiang family to pack up tonight."

"Xiao Jiang, are you going to join the army?"

Wen Ci nodded: "Marry a chicken, follow the chicken; marry a dog, follow the dog. I can't become the daughter-in-law of the Huo family and need to live in a different place from my husband."

"It's good to follow the army. It's good to follow the army. The old commander was looking forward to holding his grandchildren before he died. Now Xiao Huo is already old enough and can't live in a different place."
