Chapter 423: Biting someone in a dream won’t hurt.
Since everyone was away, no one would see it. Wenjiu no longer had to suppress her joy for fear of expressing it and being noticed as abnormal. She lay on the bed and laughed to her heart's content, feeling very happy.
If her leg injury hadn't restricted her movements, she would have wanted to roll back and forth on the bed.
Because I am so happy.
She used to feel happy, but she always had a sense of unreality and fear, fearing that she had snatched something that did not belong to her.
But not now!
Those things originally belonged to her, and the family ties that she had been missing for 20 years were finally fulfilled.
It's like the long-dry land finally getting excited about the life-saving rain. The dry and cracked land can be like a big mouth, gulping down the rain and drinking to its heart's content.
With excitement in my heart, I warmed up the wine and had the most sound sleep I have had in a long time.
She got up in the morning, without even washing her face, but wrapped two red envelopes with red paper, put 20 yuan in each, and stuffed them under the crack of Wen Jinyan's door.
Will he be satisfied now?
Thinking of Wen Jinyan's expression when he saw the red envelope, Wen Jiu was very happy. He clapped his hands and went downstairs to accompany Old Man Wen to roast charcoal and make tea.
The old man feels young as he grows older. He gets up early every morning. In summer, he goes out for a walk by himself. In winter, the ground is too slippery, so he has to stay at home.
When Chu Xiuli went downstairs and saw Wenjiu, she almost thought she was dazzled. How could someone who usually slept until breakfast get up so early today?
"Dad, it's wine."
The old man nodded, "Get up!"
Wen Jiu smiled and said, "Mom, I found that you look better today than yesterday. Did you secretly use something good last night and didn't tell me?"
She was originally just praising Chu Xiuli, but when Chu Xiuli heard it, she couldn't help but think of things she shouldn't have thought of.
The old face suddenly turned red.
She glared at Wen Jiu and said, "How can mom secretly use good things without giving them to you? You kid, you used sugar-coated bullets to coax Zhenyi last night, and you used sugar-coated bubble bullets to coax me this morning. Who did you learn this from? A Ye is not so talkative!"
Wen Jiu said playfully, "How could that be? I am telling the truth!"
"You just look younger and prettier than yesterday!"
As she spoke, she sought allies for herself and tugged at her grandfather's sleeve, saying, "Grandpa, be fair, is my mother prettier today than yesterday?"
In order to ensure fairness and justice, the old man looked back at Chu Xiuli before nodding.
“It seems so.”
"Young people have good eyesight."
Chu Xiuli didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "You two grandpa and grandson, please stop trying to make me look good. I'm already 50 years old. What's there to look at?"
"Jiu, stretch out your leg so I can see how the injury on your leg is."
Wen Jiu pulled his legs back, looked at Chu Xiuli and said with a smile: "It's okay, you don't have to look after me. I drank a lot of soup last night and I'm already hungry. Can you go cook to fill my stomach?"
"I'll go cook after I finish watching."
Chu Xiuli squatted down without saying anything, pulled Wenjiu's legs out and rolled up her trousers. Seeing the dark blue patch, she felt distressed. "You're in such a state and you still say you're fine?"
“It really doesn’t hurt!”
Wen Jiu was afraid that Chu Xiuli would not believe him, so he deliberately reached out and poked the dark blue area. "It was burning when I bumped into it yesterday, but now I don't feel anything."
"You're lying with your eyes open!"
Chu Xiuli ignored the warm wine, went to get the medicinal wine, came back and rubbed her legs carefully, and only went to cook after her legs were warm.
Wen Jianyan just sat up from the bed and saw the red envelope stuffed from under the door. She was so surprised that she jumped off the bed barefoot without even putting on her clothes to take it.
He murmured to himself, "Wen Xiaojiu, you still have some conscience!"
"I forgive you for now."
After breakfast and warming up the wine, she wanted to go back to her family compound. It was already the fifth day of the first lunar month, and Lu Beiye might be on his way back. She was afraid that Lu Beiye would feel disappointed when he returned and saw the cold house.
Chu Xiuli understood Wen Jiu's thoughts, so she packed up her things and asked Wen Zhenhua's guards to help take her back. Her leg was still injured, so it was inconvenient for her to drive or take a car.
It was already noon when she got back. The coal that had been put in the stove yesterday had already been completely burned out, but the house was much warmer than yesterday.
The guard warmed the wine, lit the stove, and made her lunch.
He has followed Wen Zhenhua for many years.
Wenjiu had nothing to feel embarrassed about, so he invited him to have lunch and gave him a red envelope before letting him take the bus back.
Yuan Fang and Lin Xiu Lian knew that Wen Jiu had returned and were worried that her family had not prepared any food, so they brought some of their own food to her and sat with her until dinner time before going home.
After they left, the house became quiet again. Wen Jiu turned on all the lights in the house and put candles in all the lampshades.
Before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the custom here is that the lights must not be turned off every night. Every household keeps the lights on all night long, as if the stars in the sky are falling into the night.
I felt that the gap in the door was a bit too big, and the wind blowing in was too cold, so I closed it again to warm the wine and then went to the kitchen to cook dinner.
She brought some baked buns from home and planned to put them on the stove and stew some lotus root and pork ribs soup. Soup is best to drink in this kind of weather, and if Lu Beiye comes back, he can just heat it up and drink it.
After dinner, it started snowing outside. Wen Jiu originally wanted to close the door, but then he thought, what could happen in the army? So he didn't close the door and went straight to take a shower and go to bed.
She was too excited last night and didn't get enough sleep. Today she fell asleep soon after lying on the bed. In the middle of the night, she felt a cat licking her face. She waved her hands to chase it away for a long time but it didn't go away, so she opened her eyes irritably.
In front of her was a magnified handsome face, the same face she had been thinking about day and night. Wen Jiu thought she was not fully awake and was hallucinating.
He asked blankly: "Lu Beiye?"
"You're back?"
"I'm not dreaming, am I?"
Lu Beiye chuckled, "What do you think?"
As he spoke, he grabbed the hand that was warming the wine, brought it to his mouth and bit it gently, "If you dream, it won't hurt if you bite someone."
"You're not dreaming."
"I'm back."
His voice was full of fatigue, and his face was covered with frostbite caused by frostbite, but his eyes were warm.
"You're finally back."
Wen Jiu was so excited that she wanted to cry. She wanted to throw herself into Lu Beiye's arms and hug him but was stopped. With her puzzled expression, Lu Beiye opened his coat and took out a bunch of flowers, red camellias.
It was a little tattered, and the petals fell all over the ground when Lu Beiye took it out, but one could imagine how beautiful it would be when it bloomed on the branch.
"It's all broken..."
Lu Beiye was a little disappointed, but Wenjiu was extremely excited and reached out to snatch the flower from his hand.
“So beautiful!”
"Lu Beiye, you really love me!"
Knowing that she likes flowers, he never forgets to pick some for her after returning from a mission.
