Chapter 61: Taking advantage of the last moments to fulfill my husband's duties



Jiang Qingyue was startled by the source of the heat in the bed. When she touched it, she found that it was a salt water bottle filled with hot water.

He turned his head and looked at Zhou Zhengting in surprise, "You did this? Thank you."

Zhou Zhengting didn't even lift his eyes from the book. "It's okay. Aren't you afraid of the cold?"

Hearing him say this, Jiang Qingyue couldn't help but think back to the embarrassing situation they faced this morning.

With this thermos, that kind of situation should never happen again.

Maybe Zhou Zhengting also took this into consideration, so he fed it to her specially.

No matter what, Jiang Qingyue slept warmly and soundly tonight.

I slept until the next morning.

After waking up, Jiang Qingyue discovered that the other side of the bed was empty.

Zhou Zhengting is not here?

Jiang Qingyue got dressed and got out of bed, she looked outside, and saw that there was no one in the living room or kitchen. Could it be that someone went out early in the morning?

Just as I was wondering, I heard the sound of a key opening the door outside.

As the door opened, a biting cold wind blew in.

Jiang Qingyue woke up instantly, "Did you go out to buy breakfast?"

Zhou Zhengting hummed, "The cafeteria is open today, I went out specially to buy breakfast. You don't have to get up to cook in the morning. It's cold, so sleep more!"

"But it's so cold outside? Your legs haven't fully recovered yet. What if you get frozen——"

"I won't be cold. It's just a few steps. Besides, I'm well now, so it's good for me to move around a bit."

Jiang Qingyue looked at him in confusion.

I always feel like he has become a different person since he came back yesterday.

Zhou Zhengting understood what she meant and explained calmly, "Aren't these the last few days? I will also perform well and try to leave a good impression on you. I did too little in the past, so I will take advantage of the last few days to fulfill my duties as a husband."

Seeing Jiang Qingyue still standing there stupidly, Zhou Zhengting hurriedly urged her, "Go comb your messy hair quickly, and come over to wash your hands and eat."

Jiang Qingyue rolled her eyes at him, then went back to her room, tidied herself up, and made her bed.

When I came out again, the table was already filled with fried dough sticks, buns, eggs and soy milk.

Hot water was also poured into the basin rack on the side.

Jiang Qingyue felt like she was really going crazy, or maybe Zhou Zhengting was crazy.

Anyway, everything is so wrong.

......

I didn’t expect that the weather forecast on the island would actually be accurate for once.

Two days later, the weather cleared up.

It seems that even the weather is helping the two to divorce quickly.

Seeing the bright sun outside, Jiang Qingyue quickly put on a thick coat and prepared to go out.

Zhou Zhengting was puzzled, "You want to go out?"

"Yeah, it's time to go back. I'll call home first."

Zhou Zhengting suddenly realized and pointed to the phone on the table in the living room, "You can use this to call."

The military leaders were worried that he might get hurt, so they installed a phone for him when he moved in so that they could contact him if anything happened.

Jiang Qingyue was stunned for a moment, then said nonchalantly, "It's okay, I'll just finish the fight and go to the toilet."

Hearing her say this, Zhou Zhengting frowned instinctively, his eyes full of confusion.

Jiang Qingyue hadn’t given the new number here to her hometown before, so it was okay for her to go downstairs to answer the call.

Now that she knows there is a phone at home, why does she still have to run out to make a call?

Unless, she doesn't want me to hear what's on her phone.

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhengting took a military coat and put it on and went out. "I'll go out and ask when the boat will be available. You can call at home."

Seeing him striding out, Jiang Qingyue felt guilty for no reason.

He then sat down and dialed the phone in He Tiantian's yard.

After waiting for a long time, He Tiantian finally ran over breathlessly, "Hello - is this Qingyue?"

Jiang Qingyue nodded and first wished He Tiantian a happy new year.

Then he said that he would be returning soon.

"Tiantian, can you help me buy a ticket to Beijing? I'll give you the money after I go back in the next two days. Then I'll go back to pick up my aunt and the two children and we'll go back to Beijing together."

He Tiantian said hurriedly, "Qingyue, I was planning to call you today to talk about this."

"I went to your house yesterday to wish you a happy new year. Your third brother said he wanted to go to Beijing with us. This way you wouldn't have to run back and forth, and it would be inconvenient to take a detour."

"What? My third brother said he wanted to go to Jing City?"

"Yeah, he said that it's boring to stay at home now, and he wants to go to Beijing to try his luck. What do you think?"

Jiang Qingyue paused.

It is now 1979. Although the real liberalization will have to wait until next year, the Beijing market has actually been gradually liberalized in the past two years.

You can also see some self-employed people selling things here and there on the street.

The third brother is the most intelligent among the brothers and has a bold and enterprising character. He is indeed suitable for going out to explore the world.

Thinking of this, Jiang Qingyue readily agreed, "I think it's good for him to go out and see the world. Anyway, my yard can accommodate him. But this is the first time my third brother is going away from home, so please help keep an eye on him on the way."

"Oh, that's nothing, don't worry, I'm here for you."

"Then I will go back to Beijing first. See you there."

"Yeah, I'll call you in advance then."

After hanging up the phone with He Tiantian, Jiang Qingyue started packing her things.

My mood couldn't help but become brighter with this sunny day.

When Zhou Zhengting came back, he saw Jiang Qingyue humming a little tune while packing her luggage.

Suddenly a feeling of bitterness welled up in my heart.

Seeing that the person had returned, Jiang Qingyue quickly put down the work in her hands and asked, "Did they say when the boat will sail?"

Zhou Zhengting lowered his eyes, "There will be a boat tomorrow."

Jiang Qingyue tried her best to control her expression, but the joy in her heart could not be suppressed and showed through her eyes.

"Then I will take my luggage directly to the city tomorrow. After completing the formalities, I will buy the nearest train ticket back to school and will not come back to the island."

Zhou Zhengting's heart choked and he hummed in agreement.

Jiang Qingyue didn't bring much stuff with her, so she packed everything quickly.

After packing up her things, Jiang Qingyue began to clean the dormitory.

Taking advantage of the good weather today, I quickly washed the sheets and turned out the quilt to dry outside.

Zhou Zhengting saw her busy inside and outside.

I felt unhappy and said, "Don't bother, I will clean it up slowly later."

Jiang Qingyue was in a really good mood. "It's okay. I'll do everything I can for you before I leave. You still have to take good care of your legs and don't get tired."

"After dinner, I'll steam some buns for you, and make some dumplings to freeze on the balcony. This way, if the weather is bad and you don't want to go out, you can just eat at home."

Seeing that she was considering and planning everything for herself, yet was so eager to leave.

Zhou Zhengting felt as if someone had stuffed a ball of cotton into his chest, and he felt inexplicably depressed.
