Chapter 102: Really Small-minded



Chen Baoguo was also stunned.

By the time the noodles were served, both of them were burping.

Chen Jianguo said: "More noodles."

The two men seemed really hungry, and each of them ate another bowl of noodles before resting.

In the end, there was no noodles left in the bowl.

The two helped Chen Jianguo put the bowls and chopsticks into the kitchen. Chen Jianguo knew that they still had to study in the evening, so he said, "Hurry back and do your own things."

Zhao Erdan stood up straight and said loudly: "Thank you, battalion commander, thank you, sister-in-law, you have worked hard."

The corners of Chen Jianguo's mouth twitched. Such a loud voice could be heard by others.

"What are you shouting for? Get them out quickly."

The two men ran away.

After everyone left, Xu Zhaodi turned around and asked, "Have you two eaten enough?"

Chen Baoguo said: "Sister-in-law, I'm full, but you didn't eat much."

"No, I ate at the restaurant."

Xu Zhaodi went in to wash the dishes, and Chen Jianguo followed behind her and said, "These two guys can eat more than me."

“They are growing.”

Chen Jianguo paused while helping to clean up the dishes and said, "I am also a man. I am only a few years older than them. I am also growing up."

Xu Zhaodi...

This person just can't stand her saying anything good about other members of the opposite sex.

Xu Zhaodi said: "You are so petty, you haven't eaten enough either, right?

How about I make you some more noodles?"

"Then that's fine."

Chen Jianguo put his big hand on her shoulder and pushed her out of the kitchen.

"I'll clean it up, you can't touch the cold water."

Xu Zhaodi smiled with relief. This guy looked like a rough man, but he was actually very meticulous.

Xu Zhaodi leaned against the kitchen door frame and whispered, "Take half a day off tomorrow morning and take Baoguo to town to buy some clothes. We're going to discuss getting married when we get back, so it's not good to be without decent clothes."

"Okay, got it."

Chen Baoguo listened to the conversation between the two in the kitchen. For some reason, he always felt that his elder brother was a bit like a lackey in front of Xu Zhaodi.

However, he witnessed the changes in Xu Zhaodi.

After cleaning up the kitchen, Chen Jianguo brought hot water and squatted in front of Xu Zhaodi to soak her feet.

Her feet were very plump, and the skin color of them contrasted sharply with the back of his hand when he held them in his hand.

Although Chen Jianguo was so attentive, Xu Zhaodi was probably still not used to it.

She tried to retract her foot: "I'd better do it myself."

"Don't move. Your feet and calves are swollen. Soak them in hot water and I'll give you a massage. You'll feel more comfortable when you sleep at night."

"Why didn't I notice you were so attentive before?"

"You never even looked at me before, and you looked gloomy and unhappy all day long, so I didn't dare to provoke you."

"How dare you now?"

"Because my wife is not as scary as she appears to be."

Chen Jianguo raised his head, his eyes filled with endless tenderness.

He always thought that her change was because he didn't know her well enough before, but he never thought that she had changed her personality.

After the two of them lay down, Xu Zhaodi fell asleep within five minutes.

These days, Chen Jianguo would secretly kiss her before going to bed, and would not go to sleep until he had kissed her enough.

Chen Baoguo was lying on the bed, listening to the noise coming from the next room. He took a deep breath and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After this trip, he can be considered as someone who has been to other provinces. After returning to the village, he can brag about it in front of his friends for several months.

The next morning, Xu Zhaodi was too tired to walk, so she took the free military bus at the gate and went to work alone.

Chen Jianguo first went to ask for leave from Political Commissar Zhou, and then came back and took Chen Baoguo into the city.

As soon as Chen Jianguo left Political Commissar Zhou's office, Zhao Erdan and Zhang Xiwa were invited by the Political Commissar to his office for tea.

The two men lowered their heads, looking as if they had done something wrong.

Political Commissar Zhou stood tall and straight in front of the two men, his eyes as serious as they could be.

"You guys are getting bolder, aren't you?

Where did you go last night? I didn’t even attend the political science class.

Do you know how serious the aftermath is?"

Neither of them dared to say anything. Zhang Xiwa nudged Zhao Erdan with his elbow, signaling him to speak first.

Zhao Erdan glared back at him: If you want to say it, you say it. I won’t say it. I want to go and have a free meal next time.

Zhang Xiwa: Who says they are not the same?

Zhao Erdan: Then you say.

Political Commissar Zhou saw the two of them flirting with each other.

"What are you two doing flirting in front of me? I'm telling you two brats, if you're honest, I'll treat you leniently, but if you resist, I'll treat you severely. Tell me the truth quickly, or you'll be punished. Do you understand?"

Zhao Erdan stood up straight, pursed his lips and shook his head.

Political Commissar Zhou was so angry that he laughed: "What, you can't tell me?

If you don’t tell me, you won’t be able to eat today.”

Zhao Erdan pursed his lips even tighter.

If you don’t want to eat, then don’t eat. You won’t starve to death if you skip a meal anyway.

Political Commissar Zhou stared at Zhang Xiwa again, and Zhang Xiwa felt annoyed.

Political Commissar Zhou continued, "Not only do you have to bear the responsibility, but your Captain Chen also has to bear the responsibility. You must think carefully. Now that I ask you, you still have a chance. If someone else asks you, you will have no chance."

Zhao Erdan was not afraid of being betrayed, but he was afraid that Chen Jianguo would be betrayed, so he instantly became scared.

"Report to the political commissar, we went to the battalion commander's house for dinner last night. The meal my sister-in-law cooked was so delicious that we ate a few more bites and delayed the class time.

Political Commissar, this is our fault, please don't punish Captain Chen, we know we were wrong."

In fact, the political commissar knew about this last week. The reason why they were called here today was to make an example of them.

What if other people follow suit in the future? Wouldn’t that be chaos?

They can go to eat, but they cannot disobey the rules.

Political Commissar Zhou asked, "What kind of food smells so good?"

That brat Chen Jianguo never invited me to his house for dinner.

Zhao Erdan was so nervous that he foolishly named a bunch of dishes.

After hearing this, Political Commissar Zhou asked curiously, "What is the magical tofu?"

“It’s a kind of green tofu.”

“Okay, I get it.

Since you two took the initiative to confess, I will let this matter go. When you go back, each of you must write a five-character self-examination and send it to my office before the political class in the evening."

"Ah? Political Commissar, can you please not write it? I can't read, I can only write my name."

"Get out of here, get out of here! If you don't read the inspection before the political class, you will be in trouble. Get out of here!"

The two men ran away.

After Xu Zhaodi left the restaurant, He Damei asked, "Zhaodi, is your brother-in-law gone?"

"Not yet, what's wrong?"

"I wanted to make something nice for him last night, but he went straight back home after working in the fields."

He Damei was very depressed. She finally fell in love with a boy. It would be fine if she just had a partner, but she also had to have some sense of propriety. Such an outstanding man must be her loss.

"He did come home early last night."

He Damei sighed: "My grandfather likes him very much, but there is no way, he has to go back."

Xu Zhaodi knew that love cannot be forced, and there is no such thing as fate.

Soon, He Damei took a deep breath and quickly adjusted her mood.

Since there is no suitable one, don't worry.
