Chapter 79 Scarf Help Me Steal Something
Ye Tan was awakened by the sound of a rooster crowing.
I don't know whose family has raised a new rooster, but it has been crowing diligently before dawn these past two days.
Ye Tan opened his eyes and saw that it was still dark outside, so he pulled the quilt over his head and continued to sleep.
Gu Zhao next to him couldn't fall asleep. He looked at the time and it was almost time for him to get up and exercise.
He got up, dressed, tucked in the quilt for Ye Tan, and then went out to the training ground for exercises.
In the afternoon, when they learned that Captain Liu and his family were leaving, some family members came to help them pack their things.
Ye Tan was not familiar with Captain Liu's family, but Zhou Xiuxiu, who came later, had a good relationship with Captain Liu's wife. She seemed reluctant to leave, so when she passed by Ye Tan's house on her way back, she came over with her child to talk to Ye Tan.
Since going to the hospital, Zhou Xiuxiu's family has been busy and she hasn't been to Ye Tan's house for a long time. When she came this time, she found that the grape leaves in the yard were all bare, and the chrysanthemums that were blooming before had also lost their leaves, leaving only withered branches.
Ye Tan was quite surprised to see her coming over, "How come you have time to come here?" Then he asked her to go into the house quickly as it was cold outside and not to let the child get cold.
Sitting down inside, Ye Tan looked at the child blowing bubbles in Zhou Xiuxiu's arms, his eyes darting around. "The child looks more energetic than before. Is he alright?"
Zhou Xiuxiu loosened the quilt a little to expose the child's hand, and said with a smile: "The doctor said it's okay, but you have to be more careful not to catch a cold in the future, otherwise it will easily recur."
Ye Tan frowned when he heard this: "Then how do we carry her out?" It's not warm outside now.
Zhou Xiuxiu sighed and said helplessly, "I don't want to take her out either, but ever since she turned four months old, she's been reluctant to stay indoors. If she stays in for too long, she'll start whimpering and crying. I can only wrap her up thicker and take her out for a walk from time to time. She used to stay in the yard, but now maybe she's had enough of it and can't stay any longer, so she has to come out."
Zhou Xiuxiu looked very distressed, but the child was too young to understand the reason even if she was told. What else could she do except worry more about her?
Ye Tan thought of the parenting manuals of later generations, which seemed to indicate that children would gradually be able to distinguish colors after four or five months.
She carefully tapped the child's soft little face and said, "She might be curious about the colorful world outside. Why don't you prepare some brightly colored things for her to see at home? This will also train her visual sensitivity and help her brain development."
Zhou Xiuxiu: "Really? Then I'll go back and try."
Ye Tan turned around and went to the workshop to get a little tiger made of colorful cloth. The little tiger was about the size of an adult's palm, just the right size for a child to hold in his arms.
She shook it in front of the child. The little guy didn't seem to react at first, but after seeing it clearly, his round eyes began to follow Ye Tan's shaking up and down. During this time, his little hands moved a few times, as if he wanted to grab it.
It was also the first time Zhou Xiuxiu saw such a lively side of the child, and she couldn't help but be amazed. "When her three older sisters were her age, they would just eat and sleep, or cry. They wouldn't even know how to grab something when you put it in front of them."
Ye Tan: "Children are different. Maybe this one is smarter."
Zhou Xiuxiu: "Why is that? Such a big difference between the same parents?"
Ye Tan thought for a moment and said, "Could it be that your baby eats better this time? The baby is well-nourished and has better physical development. If the baby develops well, he will look smarter."
Zhou Xiuxiu thought of her three daughters. At that time, their position in Rongsheng was not the same as it is now. It was a lower level. Their salary was only a few dozen yuan a month, and they had to give half of it back to their hometown. They didn’t have much left. They could eat well, but it wasn’t very good either.
When I was pregnant, I sometimes couldn’t even eat eggs, and my baby’s cry was so weak when it was born.
But when she finally got pregnant, Rongsheng was already a staff officer, her salary had increased, and she was also hoping for a son, so she never complained much.
Although she suffered a lot when the child was born, the child was very healthy. She cried so loudly that she thought it was a son at first.
"So, the difference in diet and drinking can lead to such huge differences in the children born?"
Zhou Xiuxiu used to think that whether the child eats well or not was just a matter of the size of the baby when he is born. Now, after hearing what Ye Tan said, she realized that it is also related to whether the child is smart or not.
Ye Tan couldn't guarantee this, "Uh... that's not necessarily true. Intelligence depends on the parents' genes. It's innate. But if the mother eats well, it will benefit the child more."
Zhou Xiuxiu didn't understand genes, but she felt it had something to do with her diet. She said regretfully, "If I had known this earlier, I wouldn't have been so frugal when I was pregnant with the first few. Then my eldest daughter's academic performance wouldn't be so bad now."
Ye Tan...
Forget it, she should just say less.
She then asked what she had been busy with recently. Zhou Xiuxiu's smile faded, "What else can I be busy with? Just cleaning pots and pans, feeding the chickens and sweeping the yard."
Ye Tan: "Do you do all this by yourself? What about your mother-in-law?"
Zhou Xiuxiu curled her lips when she heard the word "mother-in-law". "She has a sullen face all day long and treats me with all sorts of sarcasm, as if I were the one who did something wrong. I'd be grateful if she didn't cause trouble for me. I don't dare to bother her."
Ye Tan didn't know what to say to her mother-in-law and could only remain silent.
"What about Rongsheng? Doesn't he care?"
Her expression brightened a little when she mentioned her husband Zhou Xiuxiu.
Seeing that the child in her arms was a little sleepy, she patted him and said in a low voice, "He went to the hospital to see a doctor again a few days ago, without telling my mother-in-law. She found out the next day and I don't know if she was furious, but she stopped talking to Rongsheng from that day on."
Ye Tan also lowered his voice and asked, "Who is Staff Officer Rong..."
Zhou Xiuxiu finally smiled and said, "He told me before that he decided to get a vasectomy. He was stopped at the hospital the first time he went there, so it didn't happen. This time, it worked."
Ye Tan was happy for Zhou Xiuxiu when he heard this: "It seems that Chief of Staff Rong still cares about you more. He has made up his mind not to be separated from you. You can expect a good life in the future."
Zhou Xiuxiu could no longer suppress the smile on her lips, and her face was full of smiles: "I actually didn't expect that he would agree to do this, I really didn't expect it..." As she spoke, Zhou Xiuxiu's eyes were a little red, and she looked very moved.
Ye Tan was comforting her softly: "This is a good thing. From now on, it will really be solved once and for all. Your mother-in-law won't be able to force you anymore."
Zhou Xiuxiu: "So recently, as long as she doesn't cause me any trouble, I don't bother to care about her. It doesn't matter to me if she's a little tired or a little bit hard. Even if it stays like this, as long as we can live a good life as a family, that's all that matters."
After talking to Zhou Xiuxiu that day, Ye Tan went to the mail room the next day to pick up a package from his hometown. When he opened it, he found two scarves, one dark blue and one red. The sender was Ye Yanlin, and there were two letters inside.
Ye Tan put it away without reading it, planning to wait for Gu Zhao to come back and read it together.
As for the scarf, Ye Tan put it on immediately. His empty neck finally had something to keep warm, and Ye Tan felt that the temperature of his whole body had risen.
Scarves are indeed a must-have in winter, but she hadn't thought of preparing one before.
In the afternoon, the compound became bustling. Captain Liu and his family were leaving, and there were two other officers with them. Those who were not busy went over to these families to help move things.
Ye Tan was busy in the workshop when he heard the noise outside. He looked at the unfinished design drawing in his hand, thought for a while, put down his pen, and turned to walk out the door.
In front of us was a group of men and women carrying large and small bags. Captain Liu and two other older men were surrounded in the middle to say goodbye. Knowing that there was little chance of seeing each other again, everyone's expressions were heavy.
There were many people on the road nearby who came to see them off. One of them seemed to get along very well with Captain Liu's mother. She came over and held her hand, and started crying while talking. Some more emotional people couldn't help crying when they saw what they were doing.
Among the three retired people, except for Captain Liu who retired due to injury, the other two returned to civilian jobs due to age. They did not seem to have such a heavy sense of parting sadness. Only Captain Liu choked up while talking to others, and it was obvious that he was reluctant to leave.
Gu Zhao said that Captain Liu had been a soldier for more than ten years. He started working in the army at the age of fifteen and dedicated his best years to the vast ocean. The island was his home, but now the time had come for him to leave. Ye Tan felt sad when he thought about it, let alone the person involved.
Ye Tan followed him all the way to the gate, where she saw Commander Zhou waiting with a group of people, including Gu Zhao.
There are several soldiers who need to retire and transfer to civilian jobs this time. In addition to the three officers in the family compound, there are also several younger soldiers. Everyone gathered in front of the gate of the base.
Commander Zhou said a few words to everyone who was about to leave. Then a truck drove over and everyone loaded their belongings onto the truck. Captain Liu saluted Commander Zhou and Gu Zhao, then turned around and was helped onto the truck.
"Captain Liu, we will miss you."
"Xiao Liu, go back and get married quickly and live a good life."
"Old Wei, remember to write to me when you get home. You can also call me if you have anything. Don't be afraid of bothering me."
"Aunt Liu, remember to write to everyone when you get back. Don't forget us old sisters."
…
Everyone ran forward and shouted goodbye. Ye Tan also watched the truck carrying people and luggage all the way to the ferry until it was out of sight. She turned around and saw Gu Zhao standing behind her at some point.
Seeing that he also had a heavy expression, Ye Tan smiled at him and asked, "Captain Gu, are you going back to work next?"
Gu Zhao was slightly stunned. It was rare for him to hear the three words "Captain Gu" from Ye Tan. Gu Zhao looked at her, and his heavy expression disappeared, replaced by a smile: "The commander said that we can leave early today. Comrade Ye, do you have any plans for the future?"
Ye Tan pointed outside the base and asked, "Do you dare to go to the beach?"
Gu Zhao felt the cold air blowing on his face and said, "Why should I be afraid? But you, aren't you afraid of your face getting cracked?"
Ye Tan pulled up the scarf around her neck, covering half of her face, revealing only a pair of smiling eyes. She said, "Don't be afraid, I have this."
Gu Zhao just noticed her scarf. The bright red one made her already fair skin look even more like plum blossoms and snow.
This color, which most people cannot suppress, becomes a beautiful backdrop for her when she wears it.
Gu Zhao touched it, feeling soft, and asked her, "Where did it come from?"
Ye Tan held his hand and walked forward together: "My brother from my hometown sent it to me. It should have been knitted by my mother. Mine is red and yours is navy blue. If I had known you were here, I would have brought it here."
Gu Zhao: "It's okay, you can wear it when you get back."
Ye Tan: "With the scarf, the neck is protected from the wind and the whole body is warmer. We missed it too much before and suffered from the cold for so long in vain."
Ye Tan felt very sorry. Seeing that Gu Zhao's ears were a little red, he reached out and touched his ears. He found that they were cold. He lowered his head and blew a breath into his palm, then stood on tiptoe to cover his ears.
"Are you going to get frostbite?"
Gu Zhao put his hands around Ye Tan's waist, slightly hunched over and lowered his head, making it easier for Ye Tan to cover his ears: "I've never had frostbite."
Ye Tan: "Where are your hands?"
Gu Zhao: “Neither.”
Ye Tan was relieved. Gu Zhao pulled down her increasingly cold hands and stopped her from covering them for him. After covering them for a while, her own hands became cold due to the cold wind.
Gu Zhao then put her hands inside his coat to warm them, and after a while he wrapped Ye Tan completely inside the coat.
Ye Tan moved his feet: "Like conjoined twins, how are we supposed to walk like this?"
Gu Zhao smiled nonchalantly, "This is no small matter." He tightened his grip on her back and picked Ye Tan up. He turned her around twice and said confidently, "Tell me, which way do you want to go?"
Ye Tan smiled, and his hands under his clothes hugged Gu Zhao's waist. He raised his chin towards the nearby woods and said, "Over there."
A crooked tree grew on a small slope. Gu Zhao carried Ye Tan up to it. Ye Tan turned his head to look at the sea in front of him and thought that this location had a good visual effect and was a suitable place to watch the sunset.
"This place is more spacious than our balcony. Let's go back later."
Gu Zhao knew without asking that Ye Tan wanted to watch the sunset, so he simply found a clean place, sat down first, and then wrapped Ye Tan in his arms and hugged her.
Ye Tan put her face close to his: "Is it cold?"
Gu Zhao rubbed his chin against her face: "It's not cold."
A smile appeared in Ye Tan's eyes, and he said with a smile: "I'm asking if your butt is cold?"
Gu Zhao paused, glanced at her smiling face, and rubbed his chin harder. Ye Tan felt itchy from the stubble of his beard, and she laughed and hid in his arms.
Gu Zhao slid his big hand down, pinched a piece of soft flesh, and said with a smile: "Is your butt itchy? Let me treat it for you?"
Ye Tan began to twist her waist, avoiding his hand, and warned: "Captain Gu, we are outside, please have some dignity."
Gu Zhao glanced around and said nonchalantly, "No one else saw me except you."
Ye Tan also looked around. Indeed, it was almost time for dinner. Who would come to the beach in the cold wind? Thinking of this made the two of them look like fools.
Ye Tan: "Let's go back."
Gu Zhao: "Don't you want to watch the sunset?"
Ye Tan shook his head: "I don't want to watch it anymore. The sunset is so beautiful, but it's better to be healthy. Let's go home. We can watch it from our balcony."
Gu Zhao didn't care, "Okay." It would be more convenient when they go back. It was still too cold outside, and he was afraid of getting frozen if he wanted to do anything.
Ye Tan was unaware of Gu Zhao's ill intentions and thought he had escaped danger. He breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, and pulled Gu Zhao back.
After the two walked away, two people came out from the bushes farther behind the small mound, a man and a woman. They were none other than Sun Chao and Song Qianyue.
Song Qianyue looked at the two people walking away, her eyes turning green with jealousy.
Ye Tan is so lucky that she found such a handsome man, who is also the leader of a group. He looks a few years younger than Chen Xudong.
Song Qianyue had heard of the reputation of Ye Tan's husband Gu Zhao before, but she didn't know what Gu Zhao looked like, nor did she expect Gu Zhao to be so much younger than she imagined. He looked to be in his twenties at most.
Song Qianyue took a deep breath. She just couldn't bear to see people around her living better than her. She was extremely jealous, but she tried hard to hold back and not show it on the surface.
She had just managed to coax Sun Chao next to her into being somewhat obedient, but she couldn't let all her efforts go to waste now.
Song Qianyue adjusted her expression and returned to her gentle, caring and understanding self. "Brother Sun, why do you hide when you see them? Do you know them?"
Sun Chao had also been staring at Ye Tan's back, but his gaze was so deep that it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.
Song Qianyue didn't want to dwell on this issue. After all, she approached Sun Chao with the intention of using him and didn't expect the relationship to last long.
Sun Chao smiled and said, "I can't say I know him. I used to work in a store, and I've only met him a few times. Besides, I'm just a nobody, so why would a big boss like me deserve to know me? He wouldn't even glance at me when we walked by."
Song Qianyue... why does this jealous and sour tone sound so familiar?
Song Qianyue's eyes became complicated, and for a moment it was as if she saw another herself.
Sun Chao watched the two people in front of him walk away until they were out of sight, then he turned around and walked slowly in the opposite direction.
Song Qianyue followed him, put her arm around his, and shivered as she said, "Brother Sun, it's so cold here. Let's find a place sheltered from the wind to talk."
Sun Chao didn't say anything when Song Qianyue held his hand so intimately. He knew from the beginning that this woman must have some purpose in approaching him, but what did he have? His biggest support was his uncle, but he had been moved far away from here and it was impossible to find him even if he wanted to.
He didn't think there was anything about him that deserved to be remembered, so he didn't care what Song Qianyue was thinking.
He is a man after all. If he can't get what he wants, he can have a way to vent his frustration.
Sun Chao was taken by Song Qianyue to a secluded place with the sea in front and reefs and woods on the other three sides. It was indeed a good hidden place.
This was not the first time Song Qianyue came here, but the previous man was Fu Guangshen. Thinking of the man who abandoned her, Song Qianyue gritted her teeth. Damn man, sooner or later he would regret it.
Sun Chao sat down on the hay and noticed Song Qianyue's gloomy expression. He couldn't help but ask her, "What's wrong with you?"
Song Qianyue finally came back to her senses from Fu Guangshen's abandonment and smiled gently at him: "Nothing, just thinking of something unhappy."
Song Qianyue walked over and naturally leaned into his arms. With this warm and soft beauty in his arms, Sun Chao also felt a little interested in chatting.
Things between men and women cannot get down to business right away, as that would be boring for Sun Chao. He needs some romance, so it was at times like this during the past two days that Sun Chao was willing to coax Song Qianyue a few more words.
Song Qianyue had also seen this clearly, and naturally mentioned Ye Tan's threat to her.
As for why she threatened, Song Qianyue certainly would not tell the truth. She only said that she had offended Ye Tan's good sister Zhao Xiaoya, and Zhao Xiaoya was her stepfather's woman. She had disliked her since she was a child and had always bullied her.
This time she came to the island because she knew that he was pregnant and came to take care of her out of kindness, but Zhao Xiaoya not only did not appreciate it, but also said some bad things about her to Ye Tan, making her dislike her.
Song Qianyue was about to cry when she spoke. She felt like she was the honest man who was bullied, a poor little thing.
But would Sun Chao believe it? He was no fool. Judging from the fact that she seduced him on the first day they met, Song Qianyue was definitely not a white flower who would be bullied.
But he didn't say anything. He just listened to Song Qianyue crying. He watched with great interest and his body gradually became excited.
Sun Chao has a little-known habit. The harder a woman cries, the more excited he gets. Not to mention that Song Qianyue's tears are so beautiful and pitiful when she cries. It instantly makes Sun Chao's desire reach its peak, and he soon becomes impatient to listen to her crying and complaining.
He turned around and pushed the person down, then quickly pressed on top, his hands moving familiarly on Song Qianyue's body.
Song Qianyue was able to attract so many men, so naturally she had a good body, well-proportioned, big where it should be big, and thin where it should be thin enough to be held with both hands.
Sun Chaoyue became more and more impatient. Finally, he couldn't bear to take off his clothes bit by bit and directly pulled Song Qianyue up. He didn't care that it was winter and there was a sea breeze blowing all around. He unbuttoned his pants and got straight to the point.
But Song Qianyue was not ready yet, because she was so focused on acting out her beautiful crying that she had no time to adjust her emotions and get into the situation. Now she was tormented by the impatient and reckless Sun Chao, and she cried out in pain.
Sun Chao was so anxious that his eyes turned red. He didn't care about her at all and just vented his anger based on his own feelings.
When everything was over, Sun Chao fell limply on Song Qianyue, and Song Qianyue's torture finally ended.
Her face was covered with tear marks as she stared blankly at the starry sky above. Her mind was confused by the pain and stimulation until her body felt pain again.
Sun Chao, who had taken a break, started again.
That night, Song Qianyue experienced the pain of losing her virginity for the first time in a long time.
Afterwards, Sun Chao didn't know if he was satisfied or not. He felt a little pity for Song Qianyue, whose eyes were red from crying. He smoked a cigarette in one hand and touched her face with the other hand and asked, "While I'm in a good mood, tell me, what do you want from me?"
Song Qianyue looked at Sun Chao with her swollen eyes, and seemed unable to react to what he said for a moment.
Sun Chao repeated with rare patience, "Now I promise you anything I can do. You may never get it again. I won't agree to anything you ask for later."
Song Qianyue finally came back to her senses. Regardless of the discomfort in her body, she immediately got up and said through gritted teeth, "I want Ye Tan to divorce her husband!"
Why does she have such a hard life while she has such a good man to protect her? It's so unfair, she can't stand it.
Sun Chao was stunned for a moment, then he narrowed his eyes and smiled. He lifted Song Qianyue's chin with his finger, and seeing the deep jealousy in her eyes, he sneered: "You think too highly of me. I can't make them divorce." If he could do it and wait for her to say it, he would have done it himself.
Song Qianyue hugged his arm and said, "An officer like Gu Zhao must be out at sea often. She must be lonely without a man. If you try to seduce her, he will definitely not want her if he finds out."
Song Qianyue knows men too well. She lives a life of debauchery, but she doesn't allow women to have contact with men. As a group leader, how could Gu Zhao not have some self-respect? Would he be willing to wear this green hat when he knew his wife was having an affair with another man? Definitely not.
Sun Chao pushed her hand away and asked, "Do you think I haven't tried it before?"
Sun Chao's words stunned Song Qianyue. She didn't react to what he meant at first, but she didn't stay stunned for long. She quickly came back to her senses and widened her eyes. "You, you like Ye Tan?"
Sun Chao didn't care at all that she knew about this. "What's so surprising about this? Ye Tan is so beautiful, which man wouldn't like her?"
Seeing the man in front of her who had just made love with her saying that he liked another woman, Song Qianyue's resentment welled up in her heart. She said viciously, "She's a married woman, and you like her? Do you really want to eat someone else's food? Isn't that disgusting?"
Sun Chao's smiling expression darkened. He reached out and pinched Song Qianyue's chin, saying coldly, "Disgusting? She's disgusting, but what about you? Aren't you even more disgusting, a meal that's been chewed by who knows how many people?"
After saying that, Sun Chao left her, stood up, tidied his clothes, and looked like he was about to leave.
Song Qianyue didn't care about being angry. She quickly put on her clothes and endured the discomfort to catch up with Sun Chao.
"Then you can help me steal something from her house, right?"
Sun Chao did not respond immediately.
Song Qianyue's heart was pounding. She had paid so much and had been toyed with by Sun Chao several times. If she couldn't steal the things back, all her efforts would be in vain.
Sun Chao in front thought for a while, and after a while, he nodded under Song Qianyue's stare.
It was also Song Qianyue who reminded him that if Ye Tan ignored him and looked down on him, couldn't he still go to her on his own?

Author has something to say: Pre-collection of "After Being Proposed by the Big Boss of the Era" Autumn Harvest [Please][Rose]
Delicate beauty VS stuffy boss
Lu Yan is a second-generation rich man who lives a carefree life in modern times. Just because he sympathized with a cannon fodder with the same name when reading a novel, he was chosen by a time-travelling god to become a cannon fodder instead of the original owner.
Thinking of the original owner who was bullied by a scumbag and became pregnant because of her beauty, and finally suffered a tragic ending of two deaths, Lu Yan's eyes went dark and dark, and she saw her grandmother. In the end, her grandmother did not come, and a good man came to save her.
Chen Chi is a good man who saved her from danger, but he is not a good man. He is sharp-tongued, straight-laced, and rude. Although his appearance is attractive, he is not really a good candidate for a gentle and good husband at home.
But Chen Chi didn't know what was wrong with him and he had to marry her.
Then she found that this man was extremely gentle, but sometimes he asked for too much, and Lu Yan was bullied to the point of breaking her waist.
Lu Yan leaned on the windowsill, her delicate face about to cry with shame: "Asshole, you don't bully others like that."
Chen Chi kissed her from behind, his breath unstable and his voice hoarse: "Jiaojiao, I love you."
☆
The train in Chenchi was delayed and he saved a girl who was being bullied.
The girl was spoiled and willful but really beautiful, which made Chen Chi, who always disliked trouble, make exceptions for her again and again, and he even had dirty dreams when he went home at night.
The next day, when he saw Lu Yan chatting and laughing with another man, Chen Chi felt extremely uncomfortable with her smile.
Such a silly rabbit would be eaten till nothing is left if it is released into the wild. It must be brought home and kept under strict supervision.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yan disagreed, and Chen Chi could only coerce and bribe Yilong.
Lu Yan...
What a shameless man.
