In the late 1970s and early 1980s, cars and jeeps were very rare. Even in the city of Kyoto, you could hardly see any.
Wen Xin stayed in the car like a well-behaved goose for a while, then she moved her butt left and right a little restlessly. The space in the car was already small. Yan Mo Tou didn't say anything, but just held the steering wheel nonchalantly with one hand. The car was driving steadily, and Wen Xin couldn't help but steal a glance at him. His face looked calm, but the atmosphere in the car was inexplicably solemn.
It made people afraid to act rashly. She pulled the uneven hem of her skirt uncomfortably. The soft fabric was close to her slender and smooth thighs. The material rubbed against her skin, feeling a little cool and very comfortable. She was bored and pulled her skirt up, then put it down, pulled it up again, and put it down again...
"Do your parents know?" She was playing with her skirt when someone next to her suddenly asked.
Wen Xin stopped what she was doing and immediately turned around to look at him. The man sitting in the driver's seat had his left hand resting on the window, his right hand casually holding the steering wheel, his eyes focused on the front. If she hadn't heard it, she would have thought he hadn't said anything just now.
"Know what?" she asked cautiously.
"Blind date." He uttered two words.
"Oh, I don't know. Even if they knew, what would it matter? They wouldn't care whether I lived or died."
Wen Xin comes from the modern era and has nothing to do with the female supporting character’s parents, including her appearance and flesh and blood, because she has neither traveled through another person’s body nor resurrected as a ghost. From head to toe, even a single hair belongs to her completely. But in the world of this book, she appeared out of nowhere. No one can find where she came from or her past here, but she already exists, so there must be a source, right?
So she was forced to accept the identity of being the daughter of the male protagonist's enemy.
Wen Xin also cheered up. She felt that she should improve the male lead's favorability.
She put herself in the role and said somewhat aggrievedly: "...I was not raised by them, so I probably have no feelings. In their eyes, I am just a tool to climb up." Wen Xin said and glanced at him. Captain Yan's expression was calm and expressionless.
"Before, he said he would marry me to the idiot son of Secretary Fu. That idiot not only beat people but also bit people. He even bit my fiancée on the chest. Later, he broke off the engagement..."
This is a true story in the book, she didn't make it up. In the book, the male protagonist finally made the Wen family unable to stay in Kyoto, and had to return to his hometown to farm. Since Wen Xin knew this plot, she must have extricated herself. The Wen family is the Wen family, they offended you, but I didn't. I am just a poor little thing in the Wen family, an innocent little thing, not worth your torture, King Yan.
"...I have to plan for my future. I have no choice but to go on a blind date, but don't worry." With a warm tone, she assured him with her red lips slightly parted as she faced his sharp profile, "I won't have any improper thoughts about you. When I find a place to stay, I will leave the Yan family..." and leave here.
To be honest, she had complicated feelings towards this demon, as if she saw a beautiful flower stuck in someone else's dung pile. But since he and Victoria Song were a couple in the book, she could only give up those improper thoughts in her heart.
There is always better grass in the world. If there isn't any, just look for another one.
"Squeak--" The jeep stopped by the side of the road. Wen Xin, who was talking sideways, was caught off guard and her head hit his shoulder. His shoulder muscles were so hard that her forehead turned red.
She covered her head with her hands and hadn't said anything yet when she heard Yan Motou's cold voice, "Have you found your next employer? The one who was talking to you at the door just now?"
Um? Is he talking about the guy with glasses?
Wen Xin hesitated for a moment, feeling a little regretful. She shouldn't have come out today. The whole process was terrible. But since the blind date didn't work out, she was too embarrassed to let anyone know, so she just nodded and said, "Well, he... is quite good. I heard from my sister-in-law..."
"get off!"
"ah?"
Yan Motou interrupted her with a cold voice, leaned over, stretched out his long arm and opened the door on her side. In the narrow space of the car, his arm inadvertently brushed the thin fabric on her full chest. The sensitive touch made her shudder, but he didn't notice it. The masculine scent and soap smell of the man filled her nostrils because of the close distance, and the breath was fresh and pleasant.
Wen Xin was driven off without knowing what was happening. It was not until she looked around blankly that she realized that this was an unfamiliar street and she had not even reached the military compound. She hurriedly pulled the car door and asked him, "Where is this? How can I get back home if you ask me to get off?"
"Go back."
After Yan Motou finished speaking, he slammed the car door in front of her. Through the car window, she saw him with a cold face, his palms on the steering wheel, and he reversed, changed gears and stepped on the accelerator in one go! The sound of the engine speeding away made Wen Xin's scalp explode!
Woc, Wen Xin didn't know what she said wrong and was just thrown on the side of the road. She was just wearing sandals, otherwise she would have kicked his car door twice.
Fortunately, after asking around with people around her, she learned that this place seemed not far from the military compound and was just two blocks away. She finally breathed a sigh of relief. The main reason was that she had never been here before and now she couldn't take a taxi. It would be terrible if she got lost.
That night, Yama didn't come back for dinner, and she cooked too much warm food. She put the uneaten parts in the refrigerator. It was really weird! Wen Xin was also full of resentment. He threw her onto the street halfway. Did he think he was right? Or the People's Liberation Army? It’s so close to the compound, what’s wrong with delivering it to the door? There was no need to kick her out of the car.
…
The next day, at the pavilion, Sun Changwei's daughter-in-law looked at Wen Xin with resentment when she saw her.
"Wen Xin, you... if that's the case, why bother to bother my sister-in-law? It made me work so hard and offended people. My old Sun scolded me when he got home. I was busy for a while, but I didn't get any good results from anyone."
four sides?
Wen Xin knew she was talking about the blind date at the Fang family, so she didn't think much about it. She smiled dryly, pulled her to sit down, and started to apologize profusely. In the end, she promised to give her three bottles of body lotion that could last for three months. She had bought one for free last time, and after using it for a few days, she told Wen Xin and other military wives in the compound that her husband Sun said it felt very smooth and slippery, and he asked for it several times a night.
After hearing this, Wen Xin said: "..."
These military wives, when they get together after getting married, have no taboos and dare to talk about anything that happens in bed at home.
Even people like Wen Xin who have experienced the modern world and are well-informed are sometimes stunned when they listen to this, not to mention a serious young girl like Li Weihong who has never even been kissed, who often runs away with her face covered with reddening.
In order to make money, Wen Xin has been heartlessly giving away and selling moisturizing oil these days, and has been asking around for channels. Don't underestimate the sisters-in-law in the military compounds, they usually have some connections. As long as she can get help from a supply and marketing cooperative or store to sell it, that would also be an income. It's a pity that it's not too far away, and it's inconvenient to take a bus back and forth in the countryside, so she works at a cloth counter.
Since I couldn't find a good channel, I could only rely on the word of mouth of the sisters-in-law in the compound. They were easy to talk to and sometimes gave me more. Plus, the moisturizing oil she sold was moisturizing but not greasy, with a long-lasting fragrance. After using it, the skin would be shiny and elastic. Anyone who used it would know that after using up a box, you could use the five-dollar pearl cream sold in the store and the difference would be obvious. I'm not exaggerating.
Nowadays, no one is stupid. You can tell which one is good and which one is bad by using it. So her palace oil has spread throughout the compound these days. Many people have come to buy it, and some have even bought extra for their families.
She did make some money, probably around four or five hundred yuan. She took out a stack of ten-yuan bills from the iron box and fanned them casually in her hands. She had been busy for so long and sold so many, but only made four or five hundred yuan.
That was her merchandise that cost tens of thousands of dollars! incredible.
She calculated that buying a house would cost at least fifteen hundred yuan, so she also had to save some money for train tickets. She would also need accommodation and meals before settling down, so she would have to save at least two thousand yuan.
But now the compound has bought everything it needs, and the market is almost saturated. It will take another month for them to use up all of them, so she has not sold many boxes in the past two days.
Wen Xin sighed. It is not so difficult to make money in modern times. As long as you have good stuff, you don’t have to worry about selling it. You can just put it online. Why bother with so much effort?
She also wants to go to the black market? But this thing is neither food nor cloth, there is no demand and no market. In the eyes of the working people of this era, why be so proud when you can't even get enough food to eat?
After taking a nap at noon, Wen Xin picked up a book from the bookshelf in the living room and ran to the shade under the tree in the pavilion, flipping through the pages lazily. If the college entrance examination had not been over when she traveled through time, going to university in this era seemed to be a solution.
Several other idle military wives gathered in the pavilion to talk. Wen Xin was listening lazily on the side. After a while, Sun Changwei's wife came in from outside.
His face was flushed, whether from the sun or anger. When he saw Wen Xin, he couldn't help but complain to her, "It's all because of you, girl. Now I'm in a difficult position."
"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with me?"
"What's wrong with you? The son of the Fang family has taken a fancy to you and is determined to marry you. There has been a lot of fuss at home for several days. He has come to me four or five times. It's so annoying! Tell me, why did I let my heart be so blinded by introducing you to a date? Why did I say that? If I had known that the little devil from the Yan family..." She was about to say something, but suddenly stopped halfway through, and looked at Wen Wen who was a little confused by what she said.
Wen Xin indeed showed a confused expression, "Then what?" How did the matter of Fang's son involve the Yan family?
"And then! And then it was still that Fang Jungui who was determined to marry you. He didn't know whose nanny you were, so he had to come to me. Don't you think it's annoying to come here twice a day? But it seems that he has fallen in love with you and has true feelings for you, but you..." She looked at Wen Nuan's confused eyes that were still half asleep.
She sighed again, and said that she had never thought of it at the beginning. Such a beautiful woman, as white as a porcelain doll, was under her nose every day. She was blinded by shit and drove her away. Now, she has made herself unpopular. The man's family has a problem with her, Wen Xin has missed a suitable marriage, and her husband scolds her for being tactless every day. And there is also that devil...
The devil didn't say anything, but drove the car to the position calmly and asked her husband's old Sun to go in and bring out the person who brought his wife in. Old Sun knew Wen Xin, so was there anything else to say? It was his unlucky wife who had nothing better to do than to steal the girl from the leader's family. Only a very tactless person would do such a thing.
Sun Changwei's wife is still feeling aggrieved. What did she do to offend anyone? Did she choose the wrong matchmaker? Besides, Captain Yan didn’t even report his relationship in the army, so who knows who he is trying to steal?
She couldn't hold her breath any longer, so she sat down next to Wen Xin, "Wen Xin, are you dating someone? Don't keep me in the dark. If you are dating someone, why are you following me to see someone else?"
"No, no, sister-in-law, who told you that? I didn't. I'm still single." The drowsy sleepiness in the warm afternoon disappeared. This was a huge misunderstanding.
"Really?"
"Really, more real than pearls!"
Sun Changwei's wife looked her up and down and said, "Tsk tsk, you look very smart girl usually, why are you so stupid now? You should be more careful. You think about making money every day, why don't you think about other things? The fact that this man likes you is really a good thing that you can't find even with a lantern. If you miss it, you will regret it!" After saying that, Sun Changwei's wife turned her butt and walked away.
"Ah?" Hey, hey, hey, what's good news? Speak clearly, you are not a hero if you say half and keep the other half. If you have the guts, finish what you want to say before you leave!
…
In the past few days, the regiment has organized a difficult field training mission. The regiment commander led the troops personally. Several soldiers with poor physical fitness fainted in two days, and those with good physical fitness were also screaming during the training. This was a field training in hot weather with a temperature of over 30 degrees Celsius. You could sweat a lot in a day. Even so, no one dared to say anything.
Their devil leader followed them throughout the entire training. He has always been the most physically fit, the most accomplished, and the best in the group. At the beginning, there were a few stubborn people who wanted to challenge him, but later they all collapsed to the ground like exhausted dogs.
But some people are secretly gnashing their teeth. Isn't it tiring for them to undergo high-intensity physical training outdoors in the hot summer weather?
But their leader is a notorious devil.
After several days of field training, the group of people were covered in dust and returned to the army.
After returning to the regiment headquarters in a military jeep at night, Political Commissar Ye Jianzhou entered Yan Zeyang's office. Yan Zeyang had just finished a shower, his hair was not dry yet, and there was a wound on his face from a branch. He sat upright at his desk, calmly looking at the reports and documents in his hands.
Ye Jianzhou found a place to sit down casually. "It's so late, why don't you go back?"
"Just read the documents and leave." He said without looking up.
"Have you been to the cafeteria?"
"Um."
Ye Jianzhou has watched this kid grow up little by little in the army. His achievements along the way are not due to his father, but the result of his own hard work and training. Ye Jianzhou has to admit that a good father will have a good son, and this kid is still very motivated.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for him not to get married. But speaking of this, he clearly didn't eat in the cafeteria a few days ago, and he would go back before sunset no matter how busy he was every day. But recently he has returned to his old ways and has been almost always staying in the office, leaving only after nine o'clock in the evening.
As a political commissar who is responsible for ideological work, Ye Jianzhou was very keen to realize that this was not normal! Even this sudden field training with a group and personally participating in it seemed like a kind of emotional release.
Some of the soldiers were so scared that they cried because of the difficulties they encountered during the field training. The devil leader lived up to his reputation.
It seems that as the political commissar, he has to take some time to do some ideological work for them.
However, these are all matters within the regiment. But as the highest commander of a regiment, Yan Zeyang's problems cannot be underestimated. Ye Jianzhou still discovered that something was wrong with him. Political Commissar Ye wanted to find him and have some conversation, but the boy was unwilling to speak, and he couldn't pry open his mouth.
However, according to his experience, it is most likely an emotional problem. To be honest, men cannot live without women, especially soldiers in the army. Without a home, they have no place to go. When they reach a certain age, they have to get married. Only by starting a family can they build a career. With a wife and a stable rear, men can work with peace of mind.
Otherwise, if the rear is unstable and emotions are in chaos, problems can easily arise.
Political Commissar Ye didn’t know what had happened to him, but it seemed that he had failed to get along with that girl. That wasn’t right. When did he start dating someone? How could he not know?
But this is an easy thing to do, usually just introduce another one.
So Ye Jianzhou started his daily mode of urging people to get married, and recommended a few lesbians who he thought were good.
"…The youngest daughter of Staff Officer Wang in the compound, who is exactly 20 years old this year and looks very pretty. I heard that she was admitted to Kyoto University last year and is going to return to the compound during the summer vacation. You should remember that you grew up in the same compound, and you are childhood sweethearts. Your age is also suitable. How about meeting someday and having a meal and chatting?"
In the past, Yan Zeyang would have definitely refused, or would have glanced at him and sneered, "When she was born, I was the boss of the compound. What kind of playmate is she? I don't know her."
Or: "I'm not interested in snotty-nosed kids."
"That was when I was a child. Who hasn't had a runny nose as a child? Have you ever had one?" Political Commissar Ye usually retorted like this.
"No." The other party replied firmly. He has always been in good health. Snot? That never flowed at all.
Ye Jianzhou: I believed your lies!
But this time after he finished speaking.
What he got in return was a long silence at the desk, and after a long while he replied, "Okay, let's meet."
This reply shocked Ye Jianzhou. This was the first time in the history of the world, and he actually agreed? !
Did I hear it right?
"Then, where do you want to meet?" Ye Jianzhou was stunned for a moment, then he came to his senses and quickly asked for the location, fearing that he would go back on his word.
"Since you are from the compound, let's meet at home."
"What?" Political Commissar Ye opened his mouth wide again. Was he going to meet Chief of Staff Wang at his home? He's really promising. Won't he settle down after he goes there? Or is it that this time he is finally going to be stable?
"You mean, the girl's family?" He had to confirm this and then reply to the leader. This was a big deal!
The man at the desk turned a page of the document calmly and indifferently, and said, "My home."
Political Commissar Ye: “…”
