Cheng Xu hit his shoulder hard and said, "You haven't been back for so long, I thought you were happy and didn't want to come back."
Seeing his good brother, Wei Dong felt relieved and smiled, "It seems that Lao Meng has approved a few more days of leave."
"Brother Wei." Cheng Weiwei poked her head out from behind Cheng Xu.
Wei Dong nodded and stopped smiling.
"Weiwei told me that you are just being polite. I have prepared dinner and I am here to invite you personally. You must come to my house to eat tonight." Cheng Xu looked into the room and said, "Where is my sister-in-law? Ask her to come and eat with us."
Cheng Weiwei: "Brother Wei and his wife must be exhausted, so they can just come to my house and eat the ready-made food."
Wei Dong didn't agree, because of Lian Yuqing's temper, no one could force her to do something she didn't want to do. Cheng Xu misunderstood, "Why, do you still need me to urge you?"
"I'll ask my wife if she's willing." After saying that, Wei Dong walked into the house.
Cheng Xu found this behavior of his quite novel. He was the living devil in the army, who thought his word was final, but he even asked his wife's opinion before eating.
Grabbing the door handle, thinking of what had just happened, Wei Dong knocked on the door.
He opened the door only after he heard someone talking inside.
Lian Yuqing had already changed her clothes and was sitting by the bed, drying her hair.
"Cheng Xu, the battalion commander of the fifth battalion, invited us to his house for dinner." Wei Dong spoke directly.
The hand wiping his hair paused, and Lian Yuqing asked him, "Cheng Weiwei's brother."
"Um."
There was a moment of silence. Wei Dong thought she was unhappy. "If you don't want to, I'll take her back..."
"Yes, why not?"
Wei Dong looked down at her, and Lian Yuqing smiled, "Do you think I'm not happy? After all, I'm taking 10 yuan a month from you for living expenses. Don't worry, the relationship in the family compound won't be strained. I'm giving you enough face, right?"
It seems that it is for the sake of money. Wei Dong coughed and said, "Let's go."
"Wait a moment, my hair isn't dry yet."
Wei Dong saw that she was moving slowly and was not in a hurry at all. Cheng Xu was still waiting outside, so he opened the door and went out first.
Cheng Xu stared, "Where are the people?"
"You guys go back first, I'll take her to the house later."
Cheng Xu was puzzled, and Cheng Weiwei dragged him away, "You are a grown man, but you don't know how to dress up as a girl. Do you know how to dress up?"
Cheng Xu really didn't understand. He was one year older than Wei Dong, and he didn't even have a girlfriend at all. He knew nothing about girls' affairs. "Okay, come earlier!"
Lian Yuqing couldn't possibly speed up just because Cheng Xu was waiting, so she dried her hair slowly, then hummed a song as she braided a fluffy fishbone braid. During the process, Wei Dong came into the room several times, looked at her without saying a word, and left again.
The last time, Lian Yuqing had already finished and complained, "This room doesn't even have a mirror, let alone a dressing table."
"I'll give you money tonight, and you can buy it tomorrow."
Lian Yuqing pressed the issue further, "I also want a comb, soap, slippers, a water cup..."
"Okay." Concise and to the point.
She finally packed up and followed Wei Dong upstairs. It was right above Cheng Xu's house and Wei Dong's house.
It was Cheng Weiwei who opened the door. She was no longer wearing the same outfit she had worn on the stairs. She was now wearing a floral dress and said enthusiastically, "Come in."
Unlike the empty shell of Wei Dong's home, Cheng Xu's home looked much more luxurious, with leather sofas in the living room, a TV playing full-time, and various exquisite furniture.
Lian Yuqing was watching openly. Cheng Weiwei saw the whole scene and thought that Lian Yuqing was envious. After all, with Wei Dong's conditions, he could not afford these.
