Ye Zhi didn't know how she walked back home. She felt dizzy all the way.
It was as if what just happened didn’t really happen.
But looking at the wooden box in his hand, there was a brand new and precious badge inside.
All this reminded her that what had just happened was real.
Lu Wei said he wanted to become her revolutionary partner.
She said yes.
He also said that due to time constraints, they would probably leave for Qiongzhou Island in two days.
Seeing the door of her home just in front of her, Ye Zhi put away the badge and slowly walked into the gate.
The first thing Ye Zhi did when she got home was to wash her face with water, then wipe her neck and rinse her feet.
Although it was cooler at night, she felt her face was always hot and must have been red.
Ye Zhi finished washing her face, hung up the towel, and thought about how to organize the words to tell her family about this matter.
But when she wiped her hands and walked into the main room, Zhang Xiaomei asked, "Girl, why are you back so early? Where is Comrade Lu?"
Ye Zhi was slightly surprised: "Mom, how did you know he was coming?"
At this time, Sister Ye came out from the kitchen carrying a plate of meat and said with a smile: "Captain Lu arrived at our commune at around 3 o'clock in the afternoon, but he knew you were still at work, so he asked us not to disturb you and said he would wait for you at the entrance of the textile factory. Look, this meat was brought by Captain Lu, it smells delicious." As she spoke, Sister Ye raised the plate in her hand to motion for them to look at the meat on the plate.
Zhang Xiaomei smiled widely and asked, "How was it? Did you finish your talk with Comrade Lu?"
Ye Zhi frowned. This meant that Lu Wei had been waiting at the entrance of the textile factory for several hours.
If I had known this, I would have come out earlier after work.
She hesitated for a long time.
Seeing Ye Zhi's absent-minded look, Zhang Xiaomei said anxiously, "Girl, Captain Lu said he would come back and he really came. He is a man of his word. If you can succeed with him, mother will be relieved. Such a young and promising guy is better than taking care of three children, right?"
Sister Ye seconded the proposal: "Yes, yes, Captain Lu is quite good-looking. When he arrived at the commune today, the female comrade looked at him with her eyes almost falling off the ground! Little sister, if you can't even look down on Captain Lu and still want to think about that widower with three children, then you really need to go to the barefoot doctor to have your eyes checked."
Zhang Xiaomei was unhappy when she heard this. "Old man, what you said is wrong. If you look down on someone, then you look down on him. What does it have to do with my eyes?"
Mrs. Ye knew what kind of person her mother-in-law was. As long as her precious daughter Ye Zhi was involved, no one would give her face.
He immediately shut up.
However, Ye Zhi felt that what Mrs. Ye said was correct.
It's time to take a look at your eyes.
At this time, Ye Ersao also heard Ye Zhi coming back, and walked out of the room and asked, "Little sister, have you met Captain Lu? How is it going?"
Ye Zhi listened to everyone's concerned questions, so as to avoid everyone quarreling over her affairs again, then pursed her lips and smiled, lowered her head and replied:
"It's done."
After she finished speaking, everyone looked at her in disbelief and asked again, "Did it work? Really?"
Ye Zhi nodded: "It really worked."
Zhang Xiaomei slapped her thigh and said, "Oh my god, my efforts have finally paid off this time!"
Mrs. Ye smiled and said, "Well, my little sister has found a good partner! Comrade Lu is the head of the regiment and he is handsome. When he stands with my little sister, they are a perfect match. It is very pleasing to the eyes."
Zhang Xiaomei asked, "By the way, Comrade Lu is still here tonight, right? Girl, why don't you invite Comrade Lu to come over for dinner?"
Ye Zhi said, "He said he has an old friend here, and he's going to meet him there tonight. He said he'll come over another time."
In fact, Lu Wei’s original words were——
"I'll prepare the betrothal gifts and come directly to propose marriage when the time comes."
But it is also true that he knows a friend here, although I don’t know why Lu Wei has someone he knows here.
But since the marriage has been discussed, Ye Zhi is not in a hurry for the next one or two days.
According to Lu Wei, the task assigned to him by the organization has been completed, and he will probably return to Qiongzhou Island soon and will not stay here for long.
Zhang Xiaomei smiled and said, "Okay, since it's done, there's no need to rush. He's still in town anyway, so we'll meet up eventually."
A few older children heard about Ye Zhi's successful blind date and asked, "Aunt, is your date the soldier who bought us peach cakes and White Rabbit milk candies?"
Ye Zhi looked at the children whose mouths were covered with peach crumbs and smiled: "Yes, it's him."
"Wow, I like this uncle!"
Ye Zhi made a face at the children and said, "I just gave you some food and I think I bought you off. It's useless."
Everyone was talking a little loudly. More than a dozen members of the old Ye family surrounded Ye Zhi, chatting and laughing about her and Lu Wei.
For a moment, the small house was filled with lively laughter, and everyone was happy for Ye Zhi's happy event.
The next morning, Ye Zhi returned to the textile factory to resign.
From what Lu Wei said, he would have to go back to Qiongzhou Island soon, so he had to quit his job first.
Originally, Ye Zhi was a temporary worker, so her resignation was quickly settled.
Li Xueling was reluctant to let you go. "Although I know you are going to marry that naval officer and I am very happy for you, I don't know why I still can't bear to let you go."
I don’t know if I will ever see such a beautiful lesbian again.
Ye Zhi smiled and said, "I don't want to leave either. I've been in this town for so many years."
Li Xueling understood what she meant and asked, "So, after you get married, you will follow the army?"
Ye Zhi nodded: "Well, I agree with him."
Ye Zhi couldn't accept that she had to separate from her husband right after their wedding.
Although their marriage is not necessarily based on love, Ye Zhi feels that Lu Wei is someone she can rely on.
Even if she follows the army, Lu Wei will not treat her badly.
Moreover, she also wanted to personally participate in the construction of that beautiful island.
This means a lot to her.
Li Xueling nodded: "Okay, in that case, I wish you two a happy wedding and a long life together. If you have time, remember to write to me and I will send you some fabrics. You can use them to make clothes, quilts, etc. It will be a wedding gift for you."
"Okay, thank you Sister Xueling."
Thinking back to the original book, Ye Zhi caused Li Xueling to fall off the stage because of her foot injury, and she hated her for it.
Now she has gained friendship, which makes her feel relieved.
After Ye Zhi left the textile factory, she went straight home, intending to wait for news from Lu Wei at home.
Somehow, it seemed like all the neighbors on the street knew about her and Lu Wei’s affair.
As soon as an aunt saw Ye Zhi, she said, "Comrade Xiao Ye, your boyfriend is so handsome. You two are a perfect match."
"Yes, I heard he's a soldier. Ye Zhi, you are so lucky."
"How handsome will your baby be in the future? When are you going to get the marriage certificate and hold the wedding ceremony?"
Ye Zhidu briefly answered everyone's questions one by one, and sighed that these days, houses are so close to each other that there is really no secret at all.
After she entered the house, Li Ermei, who was acting stealthy, came out from the corner.
Li Ermei asked the aunts who had just spoken to Ye Zhi, "Who did Ye Zhi get married with?"
The aunt said, "Isn't she with a soldier? What's the matter? Aren't you her third aunt? How come you don't know about this?"
After saying that, the aunt chuckled. Everyone knew that Li Ermei had always been at odds with Zhang Xiaomei.
Li Ermei cleared her throat and said mysteriously, "Who said I don't know? I just said that Ye Zhi is a delicate girl, can she follow the army?"
The aunt asked in confusion, "Ah? Xiao Ye is still with the army? Didn't they say that the soldier was in the navy? They are on an island far, far away, and it seems that they have just reclaimed the land. Would Ye Zhi's mother agree to it?"
Li Ermei gritted her teeth. It turned out that the little girl had really arranged a marriage with the old man!
But she was so angry!
Didn’t Ye Zhi mess up this child engagement that day?
How come we can get the certificate so soon?
Li Ermei asked at the commune matchmaking office a few days ago.
The person this child marriage partner is from a military family. His parents are both high-ranking officers and high-ranking officials in the provincial capital. His mother is a doctor in Yangcheng, the capital of the southern province, and lives in a big house in Yangcheng!
Speaking of this, it was all Zhang Xiaomei's fault for talking nonsense that day, saying that her daughter Hongying had done something shameful. After asking, she found out -
I don’t know what her Ye Hongying did. She actually followed Ye Zhi’s example and said she wanted to marry the engineer with three kids!
It must be that naughty girl Ye Zhi who taught her daughter bad things, otherwise how could her daughter be so stupid as to rush to become someone else's stepmother? !
Li Ermei was in no mood to talk about these things with that aunt, so she hurried to the Revolutionary Committee Guesthouse of the commune, intending to see if she could run into that navy comrade.
But when we went to the front desk to ask, we found out that the army officer had already left.
It looks like he must have gone to Ye Zhi's house.
Li Ermei ran to Ye Zhi's house again. Before she entered the door, she heard Zhang Xiaomei's laughing voice, which made her angry.
She strode into the door of Old Ye's house and asked, "Zhang Xiaomei, is that soldier named Lu here with you?"
When Zhang Xiaomei heard Li Ermei calling her by her full name, she immediately got angry: "What are you yelling about? Comrade Lu and Comrade Qiao, you want to find someone to go to the commune, why do you come to my house?"
Li Ermei put her hands on her hips, knowing that she was not Zhang Xiaomei's match.
So he turned fiercely to Ye Zhi's porcelain-white face and asked, "Ye Zhi, you liar, how did you trick Comrade Lu into marrying you? Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"
Hearing Li Ermei scolding her own daughter, Zhang Xiaomei was so angry that she rushed forward to fight her, but Ye Zhi held her back.
Ye Zhi looked at Li Ermei and asked coldly, "Aunt San, what do you mean by that?"
Li Ermei is usually fierce, but actually she is not as good as Ye Zhigao.
At this moment, the delicate little girl gave her a cold look. For some reason, she felt a creepy feeling and a chill on her back.
But when she thought that this little girl was going to follow the soldier named Lu to Yangcheng to live a good life, her daughter was brainwashed by Ye Zhi and told to become a stepmother.
Li Ermei immediately became determined and cursed, "What do you mean? You still have the nerve to ask me what I mean? You got into the bed of that engineer named Gao, and then you tricked Comrade Lu into marrying you. I just want to scold you for being shameless!"
Li Ermei firmly believed that this child marriage was not necessarily with Ye Zhi, and it must be that her eldest brother and sister-in-law secretly contacted Mr. Lu, hoping to marry into a rich family!
She originally thought that the marriage had gone wrong, and she didn't think it was a big deal, but who knew that when she woke up in the morning, she heard that Ye Zhi wanted to get a marriage certificate with the surname Lu...
She definitely couldn't let such a good partner be taken away by Ye Zhi!
The thought that Ye Zhi was going to marry the head of a regiment from a military family, while her daughter was going to pick up the man that Ye Zhi didn't want and become the stepmother of three children.
She was furious.
It was Ye Zhi who hooked up with Gao first!
Her daughter Hongying was led astray by her and that’s why she said she wanted to marry that guy named Gao!
Ye Zhi's face suddenly darkened, but Zhang Xiaomei, who was standing by, was even quicker. She picked up a broom and rushed towards Li Ermei.
Just then, a tall and straight figure stood outside the door.
Everyone looked at him at the same time.
Lu Wei was standing outside the door with a gloomy face, his eyes coldly sweeping in the direction of Li Ermei.
