At around nine o'clock in the evening, the man who had been missing for two days and two nights returned home.
The rich smell of the sea hits your nose.
Jian Yuelan said, "You must have been drowned in the sea."
Ye Linxing smiled and said, "Will you accompany me to take a bath?"
"You go by yourself, I'll finish embroidering this." She raised the cloth in her hand and refused decisively.
The man finally took his eyes off her face and looked at the cloth in her hand.
"What is this?"
"Bitter tea seeds."
Jian Yuelan took the finished one and handed it over, "Wash it and try it."
"Wife, you are so nice."
Ye Linxing smiled happily and took his clothes to take a shower. When he was about to put them on, he fell silent.
It was his wife who came up with the idea of embroidering peach blossoms with bitter tea seeds.
He put it on and went back to the house with a bitter and resentful look on his face.
Steady and powerful footsteps were heard. Jian Yuelan didn't even raise her head. "Is it tight?"
"just."
The man stared at the flying silk thread in her hand, his eyes deep and expressionless, "Wife, look at me."
Jian Yuelan looked up, and the man, wearing only a bitter tea cloth, immediately straightened his back like a peacock spreading its tail, gritting his teeth and saying, "Aren't peach blossoms very beautiful?"
“…is quite beautiful.”
Seeing his dark face, Jian Yuelan smiled brightly, "You don't like peach blossoms?"
Ye Linxing hesitated for a moment and said, "I like it."
Forget it, as long as his wife is happy, he gave up and stopped struggling.
You two looked at each other and smiled at the same time.
"It's time for bed."
Taking the cloth and needle and thread from her hand and putting them in the basket, Ye Linxing held her in his arms and asked, "Are you bored at home these past two days?"
A large, dry, calloused palm rested on hers, caressing her slender, soft fingers.
“Not boring.”
It was quite filling, I even ate enough melon.
She whispered, "Has Yu Tuan been with you these past two days?"
"no."
He shook his head without saying another word.
"Why did you think of asking him?"
"Zhou Qingqing has taken a fancy to him."
These words were like a bolt from the blue, and Ye Linxing was stunned on the spot.
"That crazy woman Zhou Qingqing has a crush on Old Yu?"
What sin had Lao Yu committed to deserve being targeted by such a crazy woman? Should he carry Lao Yu and run away?
"Yeah."
Ye Linxing, "..."
"Wait a minute, I need to slow down."
There was a pause of several minutes, and he said, "Are you sure the news is true?"
Jian Yuelan chuckled, "It couldn't be more true! Zheng Wan's family and Captain Zhang's family are neighbors. She heard it with her own ears."
Ye Linxing was silent for a long time before he said softly, "Wife, let's go to bed."
"Hmm...wait a minute, don't you care whether they can succeed or not?"
Jian Yuelan frantically tried to stop him from pressing down, and Ye Linxing chuckled, "I don't care, I only care about you."
Before he could finish his words, the man attacked the city like a tiger out of its cage.
That night, Jian Yuelan became a rootless duckweed, drifting with the current.
The next morning, she got up feeling sore all over, washed up, and then went to the supply and marketing cooperative with money in her pocket.
The supply and marketing cooperative was extremely lively in the morning, beyond Jian Yuelan's imagination. People basically had to snatch things to buy them.
The supply and marketing cooperative is quite large and is divided into stall areas.
Grains, oil, rice, flour, sauce, vinegar and tea are in one area, pots, pans, spoons, etc. are in another area, and then there are candies, melon seeds and the like.
The last area sells fabrics, needles and thread, etc.
There are also thermos bottles with iron and bamboo covers.
Jian Yuelan is a person with clear goals. Her family has everything they need except rice, flour and oil, so she went straight to the grain and oil area.
"Comrade, I want 20 catties of rice, 10 catties of flour, 1 catty of salt, 1 catty of sesame oil, and 2 ounces of vinegar."
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire supply and marketing cooperative fell silent.
Everyone looked at her, and someone muttered, "Whose daughter-in-law is this? She's such a spendthrift."
Jian Yuelan heard it, but she was too lazy to respond. Instead, she looked at the stunned salesperson and asked, "Comrade, do you have it?"
"have."
The salesperson nodded, but with a rather grim expression, he advised, "Comrade, it's true that soldiers have a quota for fine grains, but the way you're buying it is a bit inappropriate."
"What's wrong?"
"It won't last a month."
There was nothing wrong with what he said, and the salesperson meant well. Jian Yuelan smiled and said, "Thank you for the reminder, but I'm buying two months' supply."
The salesperson suddenly realized what was happening and apologized, "I'm sorry, I was just worrying about nothing."
As she spoke, she quickly packed up the things Jian Yuelan wanted.
Then comes the invoice and payment.
Ten minutes later, Jian Yuelan went out carrying more than 30 kilograms of things and went straight to the vegetable market.
There is pork available at the vegetable station today. All the villagers and military wives who knew the news came out. The number of people at the vegetable station is even more exaggerated than that of the supply and marketing cooperative.
When it was Jian Yuelan's turn, there was only a pig's trotter, a few ribs and about eight taels of pig's liver left on the table.
There was not a single bit of meat left.
Jian Yuelan asked the price and bought the whole thing.
Then I went to buy eggs, sea duck eggs and some kelp before leaving satisfied.
Not long after I got home, there was a knock on the door.
"Sister-in-law, are you home?"
"exist."
The voice was unfamiliar. Jian Yuelan came out to open the door, confused. Seeing that it was a young soldier she didn't recognize, she asked enthusiastically, "Young comrade, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"Sister-in-law, you have to go to the regiment headquarters with me."
The little soldier grinned, revealing a row of white teeth that formed a sharp contrast with his dark skin.
She was distracted for a moment, "What are you going to do at the regiment headquarters?"
"There are fellow villagers looking for it."
