After listening to her story about the two encounters, Xu Mian sighed and said, "Captain Lu's conditions are impeccable. It depends on the person's character and whether his family respects him."
She hopes her sister can find a good one. It's a pity to marry a poor man, but the gap is too big and the risk is high.
Xu Sui curled her lips, "Anyway, we're just meeting once and then getting to know each other. There must be no big problems with his character and personality. Our country has screened them, otherwise he wouldn't be able to take this position. It just depends on whether his ideas match mine. If there are problems, I won't be willing to do it."
"I'm going to the vegetable garden to see what I can cook tonight." After Xu Mian finished speaking, he went to the kitchen to take a look.
Xu Sui also stood up and said, "Then I'll go to the back mountain to pick up some firewood."
Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan had already picked the flowers. She gave each of the two children a piece of newspaper and asked them to spread the flowers on the ground and paint.
On the other hand, Yang Boren did not go back either. He went to several other families and finalized the candidate for the teacher of the blindness class before going home.
When I woke up, the sky was already golden. On the way back, I ran into Xu Bing, who was accompanied by a familiar gay man.
"Sister-in-law, are you just done with your work?" the man greeted enthusiastically.
Yang 덿 Ren looked at the two people walking side by side and asked, "What are you doing?"
"I'm going to have a meal with Brother Xu Bing." Wu Xuezhou has dark skin but very white teeth, and his smile is a bit dazzling. "Sister-in-law, you are going to introduce me to Xu Bing's sister, so I might as well go and meet her."
He had just returned from a mission, and Yang Ren had told him about it, but he wasn't really interested.
Wu Xuezhou is obsessed with looks, and he doesn't just care about good looks. He is familiar with Xu Bing's wife, who is pretty, the kind that is generous and dignified. He thinks that a father and a mother should look similar.
He is more vulgar and likes girls who are a little cute. But when getting married, you have to choose someone you will see for the next few years, so you have to find someone you like.
However, he had a good relationship with Xu Bing, and his parents kept urging him to go, so he just went to his house for a meal, which considered him completing his mission.
Xu Bing smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, why don't you come to my house for a meal?"
Yang 덿ren shook his head with a complicated expression, but finally said, "Captain Lu will also come to your house for dinner tonight."
She said this and left.
Left in the dark Xu Bing and Wu Xuezhou.
Wu Xuezhou had just returned and had not met Captain Lu in person, but he had heard a little about him. "Is the one that the sister-in-law just mentioned the new one who was transferred here and is very powerful?"
Xu Bing nodded. "There is no other captain with the last name Lu on the island."
"I heard that he is very strict and people around him are both afraid of and respectful of him. You shouldn't have told me that he was coming to your house for dinner. If it weren't for your sister, I would have come another day. But you, how come you have such a good relationship with Captain Lu so quickly?" Wu Xuezhou joked.
In fact, Xu Bing had just learned that Captain Lu was going to his house.
He was a careful thinker, and when he thought of Yang Ren's slightly strange look just now, he immediately realized that something was wrong.
Xu Bing knew what kind of person he was. He looked at him carefully for a few times before slowly saying, "Sui Sui definitely doesn't like you being like this."
Although he spent very little time at home, he had a general understanding of his wife's and sister's personalities.
If Wu Xuezhou hadn't approached him, he wouldn't have invited him to his home for dinner.
Wu Xuezhou thought he was joking. "How can I be so mean? How do you know she doesn't like me before we even meet? Let me tell you, two nurses from our military hospital have come to see me."
Xu Bing shook his head and strode forward.
Those who had eaten early in the compound had already gone to sit under the banyan tree.
Several children were playing nearby, each waving a fan and running around as if they had endless energy.
Aunt Song narrowed her eyes and said, "I noticed that Yang Boren has been going to Captain Xu's house these days. I don't know why."
Someone who was close and knew the situation said, "Didn't Xu Mian's sister go out with a gay man today? She came from Yang Ren's house. I guess Yang Ren was acting as a matchmaker and arranging a blind date for her!"
Aunt Song was still frightened by what happened last time, so she didn't dare to say anything bad, but she curled her lips and said, "It's a blind date so soon."
Another person said with a smile: "That girl is pretty and has a good personality, you have to meet her sooner rather than later. Look, Yang Ren is willing to be a matchmaker. My husband said there are several young guys in his team who want to get to know her but don't dare to."
Sun Ximei was so jealous listening to this, but she just lowered her head and acted like a quail. She was afraid that others would see her and remember the thoughtless words she said last time.
Now, because of her, all the sisters-in-law in the team have to go to literacy classes and take exams. Who knows what they are all muttering about her behind her back!
A young lady just walked over and heard this conversation, "I just saw Captain Xu and Deputy Artillery Commander Wu going to his house. I'm afraid they are going to see each other."
Aunt Song didn't believe it. In her eyes, Wu Xuezhou was a good man from the city, so how could he be interested in a country girl?
She snorted coldly but didn't dare to say anything.
She didn't say anything, but others had already agreed, and Aunt Song instantly felt aggrieved.
Xu Sui helped Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan take a bath first before going to the kitchen to busy herself.
Xu Mian prepared the food very efficiently; all she had to do was watch the firewood.
She looked at the sky and said, "Captain Lu should be here soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the gate.
Lu Chenghuai was still wearing a white military uniform, carrying several things in his pocket. When he saw someone coming from the kitchen on the east side, he observed for a few seconds, then stepped forward and said, "Sister, hello, I'm Lu Chenghuai."
Xu Mian was stunned. She had been on this island for several years. When Xu Bing's friends came, the older ones called her sister-in-law and the younger ones called her sister-in-law. No one had ever called her sister.
Another thing is that Captain Lu is really handsome.
"Hello, hello." She turned sideways. "The food will be ready soon. Please come in and have a cup of tea."
Lu Chenghuai went to the living room and put the things he brought on the table. He did not sit down, but walked over and asked, "Is there anything I can help you with?"
Xu Mian repeatedly said, "No need, just go and sit down, I'll cook some food here."
Lu Chenghuai looked around the yard, and finally went directly to chop firewood from the pile of wood by the wall.
Xu Mian took a look from the kitchen door, and smiled softly at Xu Sui who was watching the firewood seriously, "Captain Lu looks serious, and he went to work as soon as he came. It seems that he is still very hurt about this meeting. This is my last dish, and you don't have to worry about the firewood. Go and chat with him, don't let him be busy."
Xu Sui blinked, nodded at her and walked away.
As soon as she came, she could see that the man had already taken off his gloves and placed them on the wall. He was only wearing a snow-white shirt with his sleeves rolled up, revealing his strong and well-defined forearms.
As if he noticed her gaze, Lu Chenghuai turned sideways and stared at her with his narrow eyes.
Xu Sui's head jumped for no apparent reason.
This man has the invisible power of a superior in his bones.
