He Damei said: "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I will treat you well in the future, and I will also treat Chen Baoguo well."
Tian Wenjun smiled and said, “You have such a sweet mouth.
I don't want you to thank me, I just want you to remember that if you ever have a fight in the future, don't blame me."
He Damei smiled and said, "I won't blame you, I begged you to marry Chen Baoguo.
The matchmaker introduced you to the sect, but cultivation depends on yourself. From now on, it all depends on the two of us."
Tian Wenjun smiled. She really liked this girl's personality. She was very nice.
Chen Baoguo came out of the supply and marketing cooperative and went to the restaurant to find He Damei and Tian Wenjun.
He Damei came out of the restaurant first. She smiled and asked, "Is everything settled?"
"It's settled. We'll leave tomorrow morning."
"Then will you come to my house at noon?"
"Forget it. I have to discuss something with my eldest brother tonight."
He Damei hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Okay, then I'll go in and get my sister-in-law out?"
Chen Baoguo nodded.
As soon as He Damei went in, she took Tian Wenjun out again.
Tian Wenjun said: "Baoguo, Damei said you were looking for me."
"Sister-in-law, Master Feng has made all the arrangements. I will go to the border with him tomorrow. I'll tell you."
"Okay, I get it. Have you bought everything you need?"
"I've bought it. I'll go home first. I'll tell my brother about it at noon when I get back."
"Okay, then you go back first."
He Damei stood in front of the restaurant window. Chen Baoguo smiled at her and then walked towards the car alone.
As soon as he got on the bus to the compound, he paid 15 yuan for the ticket.
As soon as he came back, Chen Jianguo happened to come back.
Chen Jianguo cooked noodles for the two of them, and while they were eating the noodles, they listened to Chen Baoguo chattering a lot.
Chen Jianguo said: "If they don't want a betrothal gift, we can't not give it.
No matter how much it is, it is the love of our family.
Didn’t Grandpa tell you that when the time comes, he will ask you to discuss it with Damei and buy her something she likes as a keepsake, so you should discuss it with Damei.”
“Got it bro.
Brother, can you lend me your coat? Master Feng said that the temperature difference between morning and night is big in the border area, so he asked me to bring a coat with me. "
“Okay, take it yourself.
I'm done eating. I'm going to go dig in the backyard. When you're done, clean up the dishes."
Chen Baoguo asked in confusion: "Is there still land in the backyard?"
"There's a piece of land that's not too big. Your sister-in-law likes to grow vegetables. I'll go dig the ground. It's time to plant vegetables these days."
"Okay, then you go first, I'll come after I finish cleaning the kitchen."
Chen Jianguo first went to the gate to borrow a hoe, and then he pulled out all the spinach and coriander in the backyard.
If you don't pull it out these two days, it will bloom in a few days.
It was easy for Chen Jianguo to handle this palm-sized piece of land.
He rolled up the sleeves of his grey shirt at his wrists, rolled up his army green trousers, and wore a pair of worn-out, washed-out cloth shoes. He spat into his palms, grabbed the hoe and began to dig the ground.
After Chen Baoguo came, he picked the coriander and spinach.
There were other women digging the ground nearby. Seeing Chen Jianguo working so hard, they smiled and said, "Captain Chen, are you digging the ground for your wife?
You are too diligent. Our Lao Zhao is too lazy to come."
Chen Jianguo smiled and said, "I have nothing to do at noon."
"Captain Chen really loves your wife. Are you still going to cultivate the land that belonged to Zhou Yu's family this year?"
"Wait until my wife comes back in the evening and I'll ask her."
Last year, Tian Wenjun cultivated Liu Chunhua's land. Although these two plots of land are small, they can actually support several families.
Last year, Tian Wenjun dried a lot of vegetables and gave half of them to Liu Chunhua's family. If she were to plant more next year, she would also have to give half to others.
However, whether to plant it next year or not will have to wait until his wife comes back.
During the lunch break, Chen Jianguo dug out the vegetable patch and planned to take the spinach and coriander back home.
On the way back, they met a few women. When they saw the green spinach, they couldn't help but talk about it. Chen Jianguo gave each of them a small bundle and took the rest home.
He went to the training ground in the afternoon, and Chen Baoguo packed his luggage at home alone and cooked dinner.
He mixed the spinach with vermicelli and made it into stewed noodles.
Tian Wenjun gets off work early.
It has been getting warmer these past few days and it gets dark later.
She now rides a bicycle, and the time she takes to get back is much shorter.
As soon as she arrived at the door, Zhao Erdan and Zhang Xiwa, who were on duty, smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, you are coming back earlier and earlier now. I haven't seen you for a long time recently. Are you feeling better?"
"Much better. Is it your turn to be on duty tomorrow?"
Zhang Xiwa smiled and said, "Yes, sister-in-law, we are both on the night shift today.
Didn’t you go to the mountains to pick wild vegetables last year? Many sisters-in-law in the compound were picking wild vegetables this year.”
"I don't have time this year. Have you eaten yet?"
Zhao Erdan smiled and said, "I've eaten, sister."
"Then you guys go ahead and do your work. Thank you for your hard work. I'll go back first."
"Okay sis."
Only after Tian Wenjun pushed her bicycle away did Zhao Erdan look away.
Zhang Xiwa looked at the sky not far away and asked Zhao Erdan, "Erdan, where are you going after you leave the army?"
This question really stumped Zhao Erdan.
Zhao Erdan said: "I really don't know, I might stay here for a while."
He has no home anymore, where else can he go?
Zhang Xiwa said, "Come back to our home with me. I will use your demobilization fee to build you a small courtyard in our hometown. My parents and I will help you.
After that, I will marry you a fat wife, and let her give birth to two fat boys for you.
It would be best if the two boys were as cute as the fat baby riding a koi fish on the wall painting. "
Zhao Erdan burst out laughing: "Are you thinking of getting married?"
Zhang Xiwa said: "I have Juanzi. When I left, Juanzi told me that she would wait for me to come back.
As soon as I return, I will marry Juanzi."
Zhao Erdan smiled mysteriously and asked, "Who is Juanzi? Why haven't I heard you mention her before?"
"I'm right."
Zhao Erdan was laughing, and Zhang Xiwa was afraid that Zhao Erdan would talk nonsense, so she said, "Don't talk nonsense to others, do you hear me?"
Zhao Erdan smiled meaningfully and said, "Don't worry, I will never tell anyone about your feelings towards Juanzi."
Zhang Xiwa: Unreliable.
As soon as Tian Wenjun arrived downstairs, several women with children said, "Wenjun is back. Your battalion commander Chen turned over the land in the backyard for you at noon."
Tian Wenjun smiled and said, "That's great, I won't get upset.
Have you all had dinner yet?"
“I’ve eaten them all.”
"Then you guys continue chatting, I'll go home first."
Tian Wenjun locked her bicycle downstairs. Now everyone in the compound knows that she has changed her name. It was probably Feng Xiujuan who told her.
It's good for everyone to know about it. After all, changing her name means she has to start over again.
