Chapter 57 Punishing the Sucking Octopus
"Then don't bother me again, or I'll punish you."
Ye Tan huddled aside, quiet as a chicken.
The couple reached a consensus and finally went to sleep separately. They made love before going to bed, and their limbs became entangled in the middle of the sleep. When they woke up early in the morning, Ye Tan had half of her body lying on him.
The collar was also undone, and his hands were reaching under the hem. Gu Zhao...
He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, and couldn't help but slap the back of his hand. Why was he so dishonest, making him restless so early in the morning?
Ye Tan in his arms snorted, "Stop making noise."
Gu Zhao didn't move. He waited for a while until Ye Tan fell asleep again, then he got out of bed quietly, put on his clothes, tidied himself up, and went out to get breakfast.
Ye Tan had no idea when Gu Zhao left. Every day when she woke up, there was always rice in the pot. She only had to eat it. After eating, she would take a walk in the yard in the cool early morning, which was considered her daily exercise.
She had nothing to do in the morning and was flipping through a picture album in the workshop, planning to finish the clothes for Ms. Lin Qiuyun today. She was marking and cutting, and halfway through the stitching, Zhao Xiaoya came over.
Seeing her operating the sewing machine, I watched curiously for a while, "Is this easy to learn?"
Seeing her staring at the movement of his foot pedal, Ye Tan smiled and said, "It's not difficult to make that sewing machine run. You want to learn, why not give it a try?"
Zhao Xiaoya waved her hand, "No, I've never touched this before, don't break it for you."
She sat down next to him and saw that the material of the dress Ye Tanzhengzi was making was light lake blue. She thought of the design she had seen on the train before and asked, "Is this the dress for your mother-in-law?"
Ye Tan: "Yes, I haven't had time to make it since I came here, so I'm just going to start today. I'll make it now and send it back in two days."
Ye Tan also just realized that she had a bit of a procrastination problem. She had never felt in a hurry since no one urged her, as the summer was still long. Until today, when she looked at the date, she realized that it had been almost a month since they left home for the island. She said that good clothes are still a piece of cloth, so she felt a sense of urgency.
She was also having her period, so Gu Zhao didn't bother her. She got up early, her lower abdomen didn't hurt much today, she felt better, and was in the mood to pursue these hobbies.
As I was making it, I thought that I would have to send it back home anyway, so I might as well make one for each family member. I still had a lot of fabric left over, and it was just gathering dust.
Zhao Xiaoya looked at Ye Tan's nimble fingers and the smooth stitching. In a short while, she had finished a sleeve, and the seam width was consistent. Her craftsmanship was not much worse than those of the old masters in the tailor shop.
Zhao Xiaoya envied her very much: "It's great that you have this skill. Not only can you wear clothes yourself in the future and save money on making clothes, but you can also help others make clothes when you have time and earn some extra money."
Ye Tan smiled and said, "Why do you envy me? No matter how good my craft is, I'm just a craftsman. You're different. You're a people's teacher. Teaching and educating people is a lifelong endeavor. Hey, don't we have kindergartens and primary schools here? You could go and continue to be a teacher. Didn't the person in charge here make arrangements for you?"
Zhao Xiaoya: "Some people have come to me to ask about my job interests, but there is only one vacancy for a Chinese teacher, and I used to teach math, not Chinese."
Ye Tan: "Is she the elementary school Chinese teacher?"
Zhao Xiaoya, "Yes, fifth grade."
Ye Tan said, "That's not difficult. It's Chinese. Once you master one, you can master everything. You can read more of their textbooks. It should be easy to grasp the essence of the language."
This was also Zhao Xiaoya's plan, so she had been reading textbooks at home whenever she had free time recently. This was also the reason why she didn't come to see Ye Tan. Today, she remembered that they hadn't seen each other for a while, and she was a bit bored reading, so she came to find her.
Ye Tan winked at her and said jokingly, "I thought you were trapped at home by Captain Chen recently and couldn't leave. I was wondering if I would have a nephew soon..."
Zhao Xiaoya was embarrassed by what she said and went over to hit Ye Tan. Ye Tan dodged with a smile, yelling, "Have mercy, sister! My clothes are going to get tangled."
Zhao Xiaoya: "You deserve it. You said that."
Ye Tan: "I'm not talking nonsense, I'm telling the truth. Look at your little face, so white and rosy, you can tell at a glance that you've been living a very comfortable life."
"Then I see that your little face is so tender that it can be squeezed to make water. Does your captain Gu love it too much?"
"He really does love me." Ye Tan touched her tender face shamelessly. Doesn't Gu Zhao really love her so much that he kisses her whenever he gets the chance?
Zhao Xiaoya was stunned for a moment, then shook her head and laughed, "Girl, I knew you were so thick-skinned. I can't argue with you, okay?"
…
The two said that they had been busy for the whole morning and Ye Tan had almost finished making the clothes. Seeing that it was getting late, Zhao Xiaoya wanted to go home. Ye Tan asked her to stay for dinner, but she said it was not necessary.
"Xudong will be back soon, so I need to go home and prepare lunch. By the way, Xudong said he might go out to sea next week. How about yours?"
If she hadn't mentioned Ye Tan, she would have forgotten that the man still had to go out to sea.
She twisted her hair around and around, "Gu Zhao didn't mention this. Maybe he won't be going out to sea recently."
Zhao Xiaoya: "That's fine. You're newly married. If he suddenly leaves for ten days, you might not be able to adapt."
Zhao Xiaoya herself didn't think that her man going out to sea had any impact on her. After all, she was used to being independent and didn't feel lonely being alone. But seeing Ye Tan and Gu Zhao always sticking together, she felt that she must be very uncomfortable.
Ye Tan didn’t know what Zhao Xiaoya was thinking, otherwise she would have cried out that it was unfair.
If Gu Zhao were away for ten days or so, she would be so happy to do late-night exercise alone without anyone bothering her.
Look at her now. When Gu Zhao doesn't bother her for a night, she is full of energy and vitality. Unlike before, when she couldn't wake up the whole morning and half of the day wasted in resting, which was simply a waste of time.
Moreover, she was really worried that even Xiao Yuyi could not stop his sudden attack because of his needs. If someone was killed accidentally, not only her but also Gu Zhao's carefree days would be over.
So now she is eager for Gu Zhao to go out to sea. Once he is away for seventy or eighty days, this worry can be completely eliminated.
Two days later, Ye Tan's aunt said goodbye and left. She took a nice hot bath, rolled over on the bed with a refreshed body, turned on the radio to listen to songs, humming along, sliding and drifting with her feet, and dancing a few waltzes to the melody.
It's so nice to have days without having to waste a man's energy. In fact, she is more suitable for this kind of sex frequency with a man.
It feels great when you make love, but it’s unbearable if it’s too much.
Unfortunately, Gu Zhao didn't listen to her advice. Ye Tan sighed and thought that it would be better to let him be a monk for a few more days so that she could have more rest.
Ye Tan made up his mind and laughed like a little fox.
Who would have thought that when Gu Zhao came home from get off work in the evening, he felt that she was very different at the first sight, as if some kind of seal had been broken, and his whole body became brighter.
He thought about it for a moment and realized that it had been a few days, so the timing was just right.
Ye Tan probably never dreamed that Gu Zhao saw through her at a glance and was still feeling proud of himself.
After the couple lay down on the bed, Gu Zhao told Ye Tan with a heavy face that he was going out to sea.
"You'll be gone for about ten days. You'll be home alone. Go to the cafeteria for meals. Don't be afraid of trouble and skip meals. If I find that you've lost weight here when you come back, I'll punish you." As he spoke, he pressed his big hand on the part of Ye Tan where the most flesh was.
Every time from behind, he liked to pinch her here, and when it was the strongest, he said more than once that she looked like a peach.
Thinking of these intimate scenes in bed, Ye Tan's cheeks flushed. Looking at Gu Zhao's handsome face, she suddenly felt a little reluctant. They had never been separated since they got married.
She hugged Gu Zhao's neck, lay on his chest, and said in a gentle voice, "Hubby, don't worry and go. I will take good care of myself."
Gu Zhao remained silent, feeling that his wife's words sounded as if he had really left.
He lowered his head and pecked her lips, "A week, didn't you miss me?"
Ye Tan: "I do, but this is your job responsibility. I can't stop you from going. Isn't that what a military wife does? I'm there to be your support so you don't have to worry. You can leave without worry. I will definitely take good care of our family."
Gu Zhao took a look at their home. Apart from the two of them, there were only furniture. It was empty and there was no one to watch over it. "Just take care of yourself. Don't wait until I come back and your wife is so skinny that it's tiring to hold her while she sleeps."
Ye Tan smiled and gave him a glare, "What nonsense."
Gu Zhao looked at her with a heavy gaze, "I haven't seen you for a while, don't you want to show some appreciation?"
Ye Tan blinked, then tilted her head back and kissed him on the lips. When they were about to leave, she thought that he had been gone for several days, and not only did she not give him anything, but she even gave him a kiss so carelessly. She felt a little guilty thinking about it.
Ye Tan thought of the way Gu Zhao kissed her, and she tentatively extended her tongue and swept it across his lips.
Gu Zhao tightened his grip around her waist, and his closed lips opened, allowing his soft tongue to slip in smoothly. Ye Tan explored cautiously. Gu Zhao was passively aroused by her at first, but he felt tortured after a while.
Ye Tan was too slow and too timid. He didn’t want to watch little fish playing in the water. What he liked was the surging waves of the sea.
"Hmm..." Ye Tan let out a moan from his throat, and the initiative was taken away from him.
Soon she was kissed to the point of being unable to breathe, and could only cling to the man to show weakness and get a chance to catch her breath.
As the kiss deepened, Gu Zhao's hand slid down. Ye Tan's hazy vision saw the clothes floating under the bed, and she came back to her senses. She remembered her previous plan and whimpered twice, "I, I can't do it yet."
Gu Zhao's hand was on her hip, held down by Ye Tan and unable to move.
He paused, and looked deeply at Ye Tan, whose face was flushed, "No?"
Ye Tan nodded, feeling a little embarrassed.
Gu Zhao didn't say anything. He looked at her for a while, nodded, and turned over to lie down. "Then go to sleep."
Ye Tan...
Giving up so easily is not like Gu Zhao's style.
She turned her head to look at him and found that he had closed his eyes, looking like he was really ready to go to sleep.
Could it be because he was going out to sea and he wanted to conserve his energy? Just think about it, it would be difficult to drift on the sea for a week without enough energy.
Thinking of this, Ye Tan breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that he had escaped danger today.
Although she enjoyed exercising every time before, she was happy every time, but she was really tired afterwards. People are lazy, and if they rest for too long, they will become addicted.
Ye Tan didn't know what she was thinking about later, but she fell asleep in a daze and had a dream. In the dream, she was on a boat and an octopus climbed onto the boat and entangled her. The suction cups as big as bowls first sucked her face, then her legs. Ye Tan felt a little pain and wanted to pull the octopus apart, but it was too tight and couldn't be pulled apart. It also started sucking her mouth, making it difficult for her to breathe. It then sucked her stomach and her...
"ah!"
Ye Tan woke up in fright, and without even opening his eyes, he waved his hands and feet, trying to get rid of the lustful octopus.
"Xiao Tan."
Ye Tan's struggling body was restrained. With a "click", the lights came on and Gu Zhao's face appeared in her sight. His lips, which used to be pale, were now flushed and moist.
Ye Tan looked at Shuize, thinking of the feeling of being sucked by the octopus in her dream just now. Her body was still shaking uncontrollably. Her beautiful cat eyes opened wider and wider, and her fingers trembled as she pointed at his face, "You, you...shameless."
Gu Zhao pulled his lips and showed a wicked smile, not caring at all about being scolded by her, "Kissing your own wife, what's so shameless about that?" He put his hands on her knees and looked down.
Ye Tan even realized that he felt like a new person.
She quickly hugged herself and tried to turn around, but was stopped by Gu Zhao's pressing body, "Xiao Tan, children who lie must be punished."
Ye Tan denied it: "What are you talking about? I didn't lie."
Gu Zhao smiled and said nothing, but proved her lies with practical actions. The next moment, Ye Tan was speechless.
The punishment for lying was too severe. When Gu Zhao let Ye Tan go, she seemed to hear the sound of a rooster crowing.
At dawn, Gu Zhao reluctantly let go of Ye Tan and got up. Before leaving, he kissed the dazed Ye Tan for a while and told her: "Rest well at home and wait for me to come back. If you have nothing to do, go out and play with Zhao Xiaoya. If you want to go to the beach, wait until the sun sets in the evening and play for a while. Don't stay too long. Eat well. When you come back, I will ask the cafeteria aunt how many times a day you go..."
"I've put breakfast in the pot for you. It might be a little cold when you get up, so remember to heat it up before eating."
Ye Tan didn't know whether she heard it or not, she just squinted her eyes and nodded. Gu Zhao looked at her tired look and felt pity for her. He thought that he had gone too far last night, and he couldn't help but hold her chin and kissed her gently.
"I won't be around next time we're on vacation, so I won't be able to go out and buy a fan. If you feel hot during this period, just bear with it. When I come back and have a day off, I'll accompany you out of the island. And if there's anything you can't do yourself, don't force yourself. You can go to the back of our house and ask Rongsheng to help you..."
Ye Tan wanted to lie down, but Gu Zhao was still nagging her, as if she was not an adult but a left-behind child.
Gu Zhao was really worried. In his eyes, his wife's ability to take care of herself was only 50 points, which was not even passing. He was worried that his wife's life would be in a mess after she came back from her trip to the sea.
Ye Tan was almost sleepy because of his nagging, and couldn't help but remind him: "I am eighteen years old this year, not eight years old. I have lived a good life without you."
Gu Zhao thought to himself, could it be the same when she was in her mother-in-law’s family and had her father-in-law, mother-in-law and elder brother taking care of her?
But seeing that Ye Tan was really sleepy, he didn't say anything more. He was also afraid that if he said too much, Ye Tan would forget everything.
He picked up his hat and put it on, then laid her on the bed and said reluctantly, "Then I'm leaving."
Ye Tan waved on the bed, "Bon voyage."
Gu Zhao walked to the bedroom door and stopped, looking back at Ye Tan, "Am I really leaving?"
Ye Tan frowned, tilted her head and looked at him for a while, then sighed helplessly, dragged her still trembling legs off the bed, threw herself into Gu Zhao's arms, aimed at his mouth, and gave him a hot French kiss.
The man who kissed her breath became unstable before he let go, "Honey~ I'm going to miss you."
Gu Zhao walked away without looking back. He didn't dare to look back even once as he walked out of the gate, for fear that he would not be able to control himself.
In the two days before Gu Zhao left, Ye Tan was really free and easy, except that she was a little uncomfortable at night because no one was holding her. But the advantages outweighed the disadvantages, and Ye Tan was still very satisfied with the life without a man.
In the morning, he made an appointment with Zhao Xiaoya to go to the beach to enjoy the breeze and pick up small stones and seafood. He gave all the seafood he picked up to Zhao Xiaoya. Zhao Xiaoya simply invited Ye Tan to have dinner at her house.
Ye Tan doesn't know how to cook, but he has eaten food from all over the world. He asked Zhao Xiaoya to make a lot of it according to his memory. If there are no ingredients, he will substitute them. The things he makes are all kinds of strange. He eats more of the delicious ones and has to accept the unpalatable ones with a pinch of his nose.
Since the men are not around, the two women can eat whatever they want.
After returning from Zhao Xiaoya's house in the evening, Ye Tan would read the picture book he had brought out for a while to entertain himself before going to bed, or listen to the radio before washing up and going to bed. However, he lay down on the bed but couldn't fall asleep. Looking at the empty pillow next to him, he found that the whole room was empty.
Ye Tan tossed and turned for a long time that night, and finally fell asleep hugging Gu Zhao's pillow.
Another morning, Zhao Xiaoya came to tell her that she would officially go to work.
When Zhao Xiaoya was busy, Ye Tan became alone. She went to the beach alone and picked up stones alone. It was not convenient to eat at Zhao Xiaoya's house at noon, so she went to the cafeteria to get food. Some people, for some unknown reason, pointed at her and talked about her when they saw her.
Ye Tan couldn't hear what they were saying, nor was she in the mood to find out. She thought they just thought she was a woman who didn't cook and ate in the cafeteria every day.
The second time she got her meal and walked to the cafeteria door, she heard several female soldiers in front of her talking about her.
"I don't know what Captain Gu sees in her. A woman who can't even cook."
Another said disdainfully, "What else can you see? Her face. She does have a beautiful face, so charming and beautiful that even our Li Tuanhua pales in comparison."
"If you ask me, what's the point of just being pretty? You should marry a virtuous woman who can take care of a man. She can't be like her, lazy and greedy. She usually needs the captain to take care of her."
"Hey, I heard Zheng Qinqin, who lives at my cousin's house in the compound, say that Captain Gu is the one who cooks at home. She does nothing every day, just waiting for Captain Gu to come back and cook for her."
"Then Captain Gu is too pitiful. He works so hard every day and doesn't even have a hot meal when he comes home."
"So what's the point of finding a beautiful woman? She's only pretty but useless."
"Since ancient times, heroes have always been tempted by beautiful women. Who can blame me for being so beautiful?"
The two people spoke quietly, but Ye Tan was only three steps behind them. They also walked slowly, so Ye Tan was forced to listen for a while, then walked past them and went to the front.
The two people who were chirping behind me: ...
When you are gossiping about someone and the person involved is right behind you, should you step forward and apologize or just pretend you didn't see it?
The two chose the latter. As they watched Ye Tan's back walking away, they looked at each other in bewilderment.
One of the girls with short hair seemed to be looking for an excuse for her previous gossip behind others' backs, and she curled her lips in disdain, "Look at her like that, she walks so unsteadily, like she has no bones. She's not the kind of girl that would attract a man to hold her in high esteem."
One of them, who had been quiet the whole time, elbowed her and said, "Stop talking. It's never nice to talk about people behind their backs. Besides, it's a matter of mutual consent between husband and wife. It's not our turn to interfere."
The one from before was unhappy. "He Xiaohua, what do you mean? Are you saying I'm a gossip?"
"That's not what I meant."
"What do you mean?"
…
After that, Ye Tan never went to the cafeteria to get food again. After all, no one likes to be treated like a monkey every time.
She also just realized how terrible she was in the eyes of outsiders. She hadn't done anything, so why did others dislike her so much?
It can't be because she is too good-looking, it must be because Gu Zhao is too eye-catching, which makes those women dislike her.
Ye Tan munched on a pear, enjoying the breeze blowing in from the yard. In the evening, he heated up some steamed buns for himself and had a meal with some malted milk.
The next day, I slept straight through breakfast, steamed the crabs that Zhao Xiaoya and I had picked up at noon, made clothes after a nap in the afternoon, and had boiled prawns in the evening.
Zhao Xiaoya was a little worried about her. She had just peeled a shrimp and eaten it with ginger when she came over with a pot of seafood stew.
As soon as she saw Ye Tan’s dinner, she almost choked on her saliva.
"Shrimp dipped in beef sauce, how did you come up with this idea?"
Ye Tan didn't think there was anything wrong with it, so he continued to eat the prawns in his hand and said, "It tastes okay."
Seeing that she was about to reach out for the shrimp, Zhao Xiaoya quickly pushed the plate away from her and placed the seafood pot she had brought in front of her.
Ye Tan's eyes lit up and he took a deep breath, "It smells so good." There were shrimps, crabs, abalone, razor clams, kelp shreds, cabbage leaves, and bean curd shreds... The ingredients were rich and the taste was delicious just by smelling it.
Although it looks a bit messy, it tastes really good when eaten alone.
Ye Tan hadn't eaten properly all day, so when he saw the delicious food, he couldn't help but grab it.
There was a shrimp in his left hand and a crab leg in his right hand. The crab leg was cut open and looked much thicker than Ye Tan's thumb.
"Did you pick this up?"
Ye Tan was extremely envious. Why wasn’t she so lucky?
Zhao Xiaoya came here to eat, and now she was watching her eat with her chin in her hand, "It's a big crab, this big." She gestured with her two hands to show a crab that was bigger than a human head.
"This morning I went out and saw a fisherman fishing nearby. I saw a bucket of these crabs on his boat. I've never seen crabs this big before, so I bought one from him. You know what, these big crabs are tastier than the small ones."
Isn’t it delicious? King crab, and it’s this big. “Isn’t it expensive?”
In later generations, live king crabs cost hundreds of yuan per pound. The one the size Zhao Xiaoya gestured to was even more expensive, costing several thousand yuan each.
Zhao Xiaoya: "It's not expensive at all. I didn't spend much on this one."
Ye Tan...
Yes, at this time, this thing is still troublesome for the working people to eat, and there is not much meat, so the price has not been driven up.
Ye Tan ate the crab legs and asked Zhao Xiaoya, "Where did you buy it? I'll go buy some tomorrow too."
"Just walk in the opposite direction of the beach we often go to. There are fishermen fishing over there after turning the corner."
