Xu Sui subconsciously put the box under her pillow, but felt a little regretful after she finished.
As expected, this act of covering one's ears and stealing a bell elicited a low laugh from the man.
Lu Chenghuai walked over to her side, but didn't sit down. He just leaned over and whispered in her ear, "I'm just taking a temporary leave. I have to go to the training ground later."
As if she was very anxious, Xu Sui pursed her lips and moved to the side.
Lu Chenghuai sat down and put his arm around her shoulders.
Since their wedding in the capital, the two have not been close. In the past few days, he has been busy renovating the new house, and the two have not even seen each other.
They could finally sit down together properly, and he was reluctant to let go.
Xu Sui felt that there was something strange about herself. She had done even the most intimate things with him before, and it had only been a few days since they last met. She felt a little uncomfortable having physical contact with him again.
She was sure that she also liked his hug, but she always thought back to that afternoon in her mind.
Xu Sui felt the temperature on her face rising.
She still remembered that in that dim room, she saw beads of sweat sliding down his tanned skin.
He was able to pick her up with his hands alone, holding her up, so that she could only hug his neck.
Her lips can make strange sounds that I have never thought of before...
Lu Chenghuai didn't know what his girlfriend was thinking at this moment, otherwise he wouldn't have thought about being tired at night and why not let her rest for a while in the afternoon.
After all, as long as he has an idea, he can get to the training ground in time.
But even so, he didn't let her go completely.
Men are generally self-taught in this regard.
He placed his hands behind her head, lowered his head slightly, and their lips touched.
With the other hand he gently unbuttoned her first button.
Study, explore, and note her every reaction as carefully as if she were studying a battle plan.
He wanted to please her.
When she came out of the room, Xu Sui had already changed her clothes.
The two did not make it to the last step, but what they were wearing was no longer suitable to continue wearing.
Lu Chenghuai took her clothes and washed them consciously, especially the thin piece of fabric inside. He heated the water and washed them very carefully.
Fortunately, the gate was closed and the wall was high enough, so no one saw this scene.
Lu Chenghuai hung the clothes to dry and left. Xu Sui sorted out her things again and went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
This was the first meal the two of them had in their new home. Before that, he had only eaten the braised pork, and afterwards she had been helping Xu Mian.
Xu Sui prefers to eat rice, while Lu Chenghuai eats both rice and noodles. He also built a cabinet in the kitchen with many things in it, so she doesn't have to worry about ingredients.
Xu Sui didn't want to eat too casually for the first meal, but there were only two of them, so she took down the pork belly hanging on the beam, cut it, marinated it, mixed it with rice flour, and steamed it.
Rice noodle meat is a very simple dish, which suits the taste of both of them, but it takes some time. 늳꽭 has very few kinds of vegetables. She also made a steamed radish 꼍 and prepared two dipping sauces, one spicy and one non-spicy.
While the rice noodles and meat were still steaming, Xu Sui went to take a shower. When Lu Chenghuai came back, the rice noodles and meat were just ready. The radish only needed to be steamed for seven minutes, and then some cabbage should be stir-fried, and then they could sit down to eat.
Lu Chenghuai fried the cabbage. After taking a shower, she didn't want to be exposed to the smell of cooking fumes from the kitchen.
The radish was soft and chewy. Lu Chenghuai even tried her dipping sauce and then drank a large glass of water.
Halfway through the meal, Lu Chenghuai said, "Tomorrow, we will cook a table of food at home. We will get married, and many people in the army will give gifts. However, most of them have things to do, so I will go with them later. But the few people who are close to me, as well as my sister and brother-in-law, will have a meal together."
He added, "The people who live next door to us, on the left, are Chief of Staff Shi's family. His wife's surname is Du, and they have a son named Shitou. On the right, are Commander Ji's family. His wife's surname is Tan, and they have three children and a daughter."
Xu Sui nodded, "Then I will visit you when I have time."
Lu Chenghuai: "They will come tomorrow, and you can get to know them. Commander Ji is my superior, but you don't have to build good relationships with their lovers. If you get along well, hang out more. If you don't, it doesn't matter. Just do your own thing."
Of course there is a term called "lady diplomacy", but he does not think that he still has to rely on his wife to gain convenience.
The reason I say this is that I have heard that Shi Hong's wife is rather aloof and she hardly communicates with the sisters-in-law in the compound.
Xu Sui: "Okay, I'll go buy some vegetables tomorrow morning."
Lu Chenghuai: "No, just give me a list of the dishes you need and I'll go buy them tomorrow morning. I originally had to get up early."
It was cold in the morning, and he was happiest when he lay in bed. Xu Sui would not refuse his consideration, so she gave him the bill after dinner.
Lu Chenghuai washed the dishes, cleaned the kitchen, and then took a shower.
All the previous hard work was taken back at night.
When Xu Sui woke up on the first day, the sunlight outside the window had already illuminated the entire bedroom.
She was still a little sleepy. She glanced at her watch and saw that it was already past 5 p.m.
Even in Japan, everyone gets up around seven o'clock, and more than ten o'clock is considered very late.
She went to the kitchen to get some hot water for washing up, but she was surprised when she entered.
Lu Chenghuai not only bought the vegetables, but also prepared all the dishes that could be prepared.
The meat has been cut and is being marinated, the vegetables have been washed and cut, the bean shreds are soaked in water, and the side dishes are all prepared.
I have to say that the military is not only efficient, but also places things neatly, the kind that can cure obsessive-compulsive disorder.
Xu Sui originally thought that she had to prepare a table of dishes several hours in advance, but now, she only needs to put everything in the pot in the evening.
It really saves a lot of effort, and now the air is cold, the prepared dishes will not go bad.
There were two steamed buns still warming on the stove, probably what he brought back from the canteen that morning.
Xu Sui took the meat sauce that she had brought earlier, finished her breakfast, and then went to the study.
It's called a study, but in fact it's just a bookcase with a table and chairs. The books in the bookcase include some of her previous books and some of the new books she bought in the capital.
There was also a long row filled with them.
The others are books by Lu Chenghuai. He also likes reading, and some of the books show signs of being read frequently.
Not only did he read, he also took notes. The notebook was placed at the very edge, but Xu Sui did not open it.
She picked up the newly bought book and started flipping through it. She was no longer satisfied with the university-level information and wanted to study more deeply.
Self-study was not too difficult for her. She enjoyed this way of learning anyway, especially since neither Xu Mian, who had lived with her before, nor Lu Chenghuai would disturb her at this time.
