"They haven't left yet. You should at least wait until they are far away before closing the door." Su Wan protested on behalf of the soldiers.

"Don't worry, I know them better than you." Lu Chengchuan didn't care.

"Also, since you want to treat people to a meal, why do you ask them to finish their meal before coming over? Don't you think this is insincere?"

Lu Chengchuan burst into laughter upon hearing this. This was the first time that Su Wan saw him laugh so happily. She had to know that he always left her with the impression of being a serious person.

Su Wan looked at Lu Chengchuan in confusion, not knowing what was so funny.

Lu Chengchuan stretched out one hand and rubbed her head gently.

"Silly, do you know how much they eat? If they are allowed to eat as much as they want, each person will have to eat three bowls. If I don't let them finish their meals and come back, how much food will you have to cook to feed them? Besides, where can I find such a big pot?"

Su Wan suddenly realized what was going on when she heard this. She had forgotten that they were receiving high-intensity training all day long, and they were already at the age of preparing for a living. Let alone them, just think about the grandfathers in their Su family and you will understand.

Even the seven-year-old Su Sangou could only eat two big bowls at a time, let alone others.

Because the amount of food in the family was limited, Old Lady Su made a rule that male laborers could eat two bowls of rice per meal, female laborers could eat one and a half bowls per meal, and children could only eat one bowl of rice.

Of course, most of these meals have more soup and less noodles. If you only eat the soup, no one can resist it.

With the careful planning of Old Lady Su, their whole family managed to take over all the food allocated by the team season after season.

Although I wasn't full, I wasn't hungry either.

For this reason alone, Su Wan admired Old Lady Su very much. If she hadn't been the one to take charge of the large family of more than a dozen people, the whole family would have been living in precarious conditions.

"Don't be embarrassed. I'll buy some more meat and vegetables later and cook two more dishes. We're just having a meal, but we're just having fun."

Su Wan nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

"Come, take a look at this house. Are you satisfied?"

Lu Jiucheng pulled Su Wan's clothes and showed them to her room by room.

This is a small suite with two bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen and a bathroom.

I just moved in, and although the furniture in the house looks a bit shabby, it has all the basic things you need.

There was a dining table and some chairs in the living room, and a worn-out sofa against the wall.

The soldiers cut lots of wedding characters out of red paper, some big and some small, and pasted them all over the walls and windows, adding a lot of festive atmosphere to the house.

I went into the bedroom, which contained a bed, a wardrobe, and a table at the head of the bed.

The surface of the pot was covered with Lu Chengchuan's pottery, which looked clean and had a fresh scent of soap.

The second bedroom was not occupied, so there was nothing on the bed, but it was kept very clean.

The kitchen still uses a coal stove for cooking, and there are some pots, bowls, and pans left by people from who knows which generation.

Su Wan took a look and found that they were still usable and only needed to be cleaned briefly.

"How about you take a rest for a while, I'll go buy some food, and see if there's anything missing from the kitchen. I'll buy it all back later.

Today is a big day for both of us, so we have to make it lively no matter what."

“Can you cook?”

Su Wan was a little bit unconvinced. Lu Chengchuan told her that he joined the army at the age of 15 and has been in the army all these years.

People who eat in the cafeteria every day can still cook?

"Just make do with it, just eat whatever you like, that way the guy won't be picky about food."

Lu Chengchuan was telling the truth, and what he said was also true.

Because the first time he learned to cook was during a war, when a shell landed and injured several cooks who were cooking.

He was temporarily assigned to the kitchen team. At that time, no one cared about the taste of the food, as long as it was cooked.

He only cooked for a while at that time, but he never had the chance again.

"Well, I'm not tired and don't need to rest. I'll just take a look at what's missing from our kitchen. I'll write a list later and you go buy these things.

As for the vegetables and meat, I'll go buy them, and we can go our separate ways, it will be faster this way."

She already has meat, eggs and various vegetables in her space, so why would she need to spend money to buy them from others?

But Lu Chengchuan had no idea what she meant. He felt sorry for Su Wan because she was pregnant and didn't want her to be too tired.

"I have nothing to do during the day, and they will come in the evening. It won't delay them. I'll just make two more trips. You just sit at home and wait for me. I'll take care of everything."

"No, I'm bored sitting in the house. Just let me go buy some groceries. I guarantee you're not as good at it as I am, and you definitely don't know how to pair different dishes together to make them tasty..."

Su Wan gave a lot of advice and finally convinced Lu Chengchuan, who finally nodded in agreement.

The two of them went to the door together, and Lu Chengchuan gave Su Wan a key to the door, so that she would not be unable to enter the house if she came back first.

He took out a roll of money and various bills from his pocket.

Su Wan said she had money and only accepted the tickets, but Lu Chengchuan forcibly stuffed the roll of money into her bag.

The kitchen supplies and the farmers' market were not in the same place, so Lu Chengchuan insisted on sending Su Wan to the farmers' market first, letting her choose slowly there, and then he would go to buy the kitchen supplies.

Su Wan said that it was not necessary and that she could find the place herself. This time it was Lu Chengchuan's turn to say nothing.

Su Wan had no choice but to obey him.

When they arrived at the farmers' market, Lu Chengchuan was still worried, "Wanwan, how about you wait for me here after you buy the vegetables, and I'll come pick you up after I buy the kitchen supplies?"

Su Wan was somewhat speechless, "I'm not a child. It's just a short distance. Are you afraid that I won't be able to find my way back?"

"Not entirely. I was afraid you bought too many things and couldn't carry them all."

"Brother, I can even beat a 1.9-meter-tall man, and you're actually worried that I can't lift a little food?"

Lu Chengchuan was amused by Su Wan's words, "Okay then, but you still have to be careful."

"Okay, I get it, just go and come back soon."

Lu Chengchuan nodded, then turned and left.

After watching his back disappear, Su Wan breathed a sigh of relief.

This man doesn't look like the kind of person who would be a drag. Why is he always dragging his feet when he's with her? She's almost driven crazy by him.

Su Wan turned around and walked towards the guesthouse first. She was no longer going to live in the house, so she had to hurry and vacate it for them. It would be better for them to suffer less loss.

When she got upstairs, she packed her clothes and asked someone to clean the room briefly. Then she carried her luggage and returned the key to the waiter.

After thanking them, she hurried to the military compound.

Just as I reached the second floor, the door of the house opposite suddenly creaked open from the inside.

A woman in her 30s walked out.

When she saw Su Wan, she greeted her with a smile.

"You are Captain Lu's wife, right? I heard you just got your marriage certificate. Congratulations."
