Chapter 46

Jiang Nian was stunned for a moment, looking down at the chocolate she had just taken out, and suddenly felt that the thing in her hand was a little heavy.

She thought it was bought by Feng Mei, and she also thought that it was unlikely that Feng Mei would buy this with her personality, but she never thought it was bought by Song Bai.

Feng Mei smiled and said, "Song Bai bought it for you, just keep it and eat it slowly."

After saying that, she looked at Jiang Nian and kept laughing.

Jiang Nian: ...

Lu Yu handed the car key to Zhu Jun: "You return the car."

"Okay."

Zhu Jun drove away.

Lu Yu glanced at the chocolate in Jiang Nian's hand, pursed his thin lips for a few minutes, turned around and said, "Sister-in-law, it's time to go home."

Jiang Nian ran into the yard amid Feng Mei's laughter.

As a result, Feng Mei laughed even louder.

Jiang Nian hadn't been home for two months, and she felt a little strange when she stepped into the house. She put the small cloth bag on the table and swept the bed with a bed brush. It was already April in the solar calendar, and there was no need to burn a brazier in the house, but it still felt cool when she walked in.

Lu Yu walked in with a brazier, and there were sparks in it. She took a look and asked in confusion: "Are you still burning the brazier?"

Lu Yu said: "Well, it's cool, so you won't be too cold if you take a bath at night."

Jiang Nian nodded gently: "Yeah."

She put down the small brush: "I'll go make dinner."

"Sister-in-law."

When Jiang Nian was about to go out, Lu Yu called her.

Jiang Nian turned to look at him: "What's wrong?"

The room fell into a brief silence. After a while, Lu Yu said in a hoarse voice: "Can you give me some chocolate?"

"I want to eat it."

After the voice fell, Lu Yu added two more sticks of firewood to the brazier.

Jiang Nian was stunned for a moment before she reacted to what Lu Yu said. This was the first time that Lu Yu said in front of her that he wanted to eat a snack. So she took a small bag of chocolate on the table and stuffed it into his arms without hesitation: "Eat more if you like it."

After that, she went to the stove to cook.

Lu Yu looked at the small bag of chocolate in his hand. The flames in the brazier flickered in the man's dark pupils. After a while, Lu Yu opened a chocolate and put it into his mouth, his eyebrows slightly wrinkled.

——It tastes bad.

After

two months of feeling bland, Jiang Nian was indeed hungry. She went to the kitchen and looked around. There was a chicken and a pound of meat in the cupboard. She knew without a doubt that Lu Yu had bought them a day in advance. Fortunately, it was not too hot yet, so the meat could still be stored.

She went to the vegetable cellar to get some chili peppers, potatoes, and a few other vegetables, and saw Lu Yu fetching water in the yard.

Lu Yu fetched the water and began to chop the chicken. Jiang Nian started to boil water in a pot, and the two of them worked together.

As dusk fell, the meal was ready.

Lu Yu carried the plate and placed it on the table in the yard. He turned around and saw Jiang Nian wearing an apron and making tomato and egg soup in the kitchen. The small courtyard, which had been deserted for two months, finally became lively. After the meal was ready and brought out, the two had just sat down at the table when Song Bai arrived.

As soon as the person came, he could smell it: "This meal was cooked by my sister-in-law. I could smell it from all the way."

After saying that, he went to wash his hands at the well. Without being polite, he directly moved a bench and sat next to Lu Yu, touching him with his knee: "Do you mind if I can share the meal with you?"

Lu Yu glanced at him: "You are already sitting down. "Do you need my consent?"

Song Bai smiled and turned to look at Jiang Nian: "Sister-in-law, let me have a meal. My sister-in-law said early in the morning that the food you cooked is delicious. Today, I have met you."

Jiang Nian thought about the small bag of chocolates, so he smiled and said, "I'll get you chopsticks.

" Yu said, "Let him get it by himself."

Song Bai stood up and said, "Yes, sister-in-law, sit down and eat, and I'll get it myself."

After saying that, he went to the kitchen. When he came out, he had a bowl and a pair of chopsticks in his hands. He sat next to Lu Yu and started eating. He praised her while eating and said to Jiang Nian, "My sister-in-law is really good at her craftsmanship." Okay."

Lu Yu glanced at him again: "Why do you talk so much? You can't keep your mouth shut while eating?"

Song Baimeifeng frowned: "Hey, did you take some medicine today?"

Lu Yu paused while holding the food, and then said, "Eat quickly, and go to the group after eating."

"Yes, there is something going on in the group tonight."

Song Bai also remembered it. The two of them ate like they were in a competition, bragging about their meal. After finishing their meal and putting down their bowls, Lu Yu said, "I'll go to the group first and will be back later."

Song Bai also said, "Sister-in-law, thank you for the meal. It's delicious."

Before Jiang Nian finished her bowl of rice, the two of them had eaten three bowls of rice in a row. She swallowed the food in her mouth and looked at Song Bai, "I also want to thank you for the chocolates you gave me."

Song Bai had a frank smile on his face, "It's no big deal."

After that, he and Lu Yu left.

After Jiang Nian finished her meal, she put the dishes in the stove. When she was washing the dishes, Feng Mei came over with Song Xiangdong and Song Xianghong. When Song Xiangdong saw Jiang Nian, he ran over happily and said, "Aunt Jiang."

Song Xianghong also shouted, "Aunt Jiang."

Jiang Nian responded with a smile. After drying her hands, she went into the house and got two chocolates for each of the two children. The two children held the chocolates in their hands and said sweetly, "Thank you, Aunt Jiang."

Feng Mei sat in front of the stove and used an iron hook to light the fire. She said to Song Xiangdong, She said, "Take your brother to the yard to play. I'll talk to your Aunt Jiang."

Jiang Nian thought she was going to bring up the matchmaking between her and Song Bai again. Her head hurt a little. Before she could speak, she stopped Feng Mei from saying, "Sister Feng, please stop trying to match me and Song Bai."

Feng Mei was stunned for a moment, then she smiled and said, "I don't care. You and Song Bai can do whatever you want. If it works out, it works out. If it doesn't, it won't affect our relationship."

She listened to everything Jiang Nian said to her.

If it was her, she would get angry if Old Song was gone and someone kept asking her to find someone. Jiang Nian had a good temper and it was good enough that he didn't turn against her completely.

So, when it comes to this, people should think from other people's perspective.

Seeing that Feng Mei didn't insist any more, Jiang Nian finally breathed a sigh of relief and put the dishes in the pot to wash: "What did you want to say just now?"

Feng Mei frowned: "Look, I forgot what you were going to say after you interrupted me like that."

Jiang Nian: ...

She smiled: "Then tell me when you remember it."

She took the pot to the yard and poured the water into the drain. As soon as she walked into the kitchen, she heard Feng Mei say: "I remember that there was a big commotion at Captain Lu's house some time ago. The whole family compound knew about it."

Jiang Nian became interested in eating melons: "What's the big deal? "

Feng Mei stood up and glanced at Xu Yan's family at the stove door, then sat in front of the stove and whispered, "Last month, when Xu Yan went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables and came back, she sprained her ankle at the gate of the army. She was in so much pain that she couldn't walk. She happened to meet Captain Lu who had just returned from outside. Captain Lu helped her and helped her to sit at the door of the police station, and then went to find Captain Liu to carry Xu Yan back. This was a big deal. This scene happened to be seen by Zheng Hong who came to the army to look for Captain Lu."

Jiang Nian: ...

the smell of dog blood blowing in my face.

Feng Mei continued, "Zheng Hong started to make a fuss, saying that Captain Lu sent her back to her parents' home just to get together with Xu Yan, saying that the two of them were shameless, that Captain Lu violated military discipline and had a bad style. When Captain Liu came over, his face was also very dark. In the end, the matter was reported to the political commissar. If it weren't for the two policemen standing guard at the door who personally testified for Captain Lu, Captain Lu would probably have been dismissed, investigated and demoted. What do you think of this?" Zheng Hong is such a ruthless person, she is so cruel to her own man."

Jiang Nian asked: "What happened later? Did Zheng Hong apologize to Xu Yan?"

Feng Mei sneered: "She didn't apologize at all. She beat Xu Yan in front of the political commissar. Xu Yan sprained her ankle and couldn't use her strength. She was at a disadvantage. If it weren't for Captain Liu and Captain Lu pulling them apart, Xu Yan would have been beaten by Zheng Hong."

Jiang Nian: ...

Zheng Hong is hopeless.

"Guess what happened in the end?"

Seeing Feng Mei's smug and happy look, Jiang Nian raised her eyebrows: "Zheng Hong was scolded?"

Feng Mei clapped her legs: "How could it be that simple? Although Captain Lu is her man, he is also a soldier in the army. Zheng Hong spread rumors about others like this, how could the political commissar just scold her a few words and let it go? I heard from Lao Song that Zheng Hong was originally supposed to go to the Revolutionary Committee. They accepted ideological education, but Zheng Hong was unwilling to do so. Captain Lu had had enough and proposed to divorce Zheng Hong. Anyway, this matter had been going on for another month, and Captain Lu and Zheng Hong just settled the matter a few days ago. "

Feng Mei shook her head: "They are members of the Zheng family, none of them is worry-free."

Jiang Nian was quite surprised. She didn't expect that Captain Lu and Zheng Hong would really divorce.

Feng Mei sat for a while and then left. Before leaving, she asked her, "There will be a market in the next village tomorrow. Do you want to go and buy some vegetable seedlings? Now that the weather is warm, we can plow the soil and plant vegetables."

Jiang Nian said, "Okay."

Lu Yu came back around eight or nine o'clock. As soon as he came back, he brought Jiang Nian the bath water into the house, then came out and stayed in the house. After Jiang Nian finished bathing, he helped her pour out the water. Jiang Nian glanced at Lu Yu who came out of the second room on the east: "Lu Yu."

The man stopped and turned to look at Jiang Nian at the window.

She had just finished a shower and was wearing a cotton shirt, but her hair was a little wet and stuck to her temples. Her eyes were bright and seemed to hide bright stars. Lu Yu asked, "What's wrong?" Jiang

Nian smiled and said, "I'm going to plant some vegetables in a few days. You can take some time to turn over the land at home and in your own plot these two days."

Lu Yu smiled and said, "Okay." Jiang

Nian closed the curtains, took off her clothes and lay on the bed, looking at the dark beams. She was a little insomniac for a while. Not to mention, she had been sleeping in the dormitory for a long time, and she and Zhang Xiaotian slept together every night. When she slept alone, she still felt a little uncomfortable.

She didn't fall asleep until midnight, and she dreamed that she was back home in the new century.

Mom, Dad, Grandpa and Grandma were all sitting in the living room talking. When they saw her come back, they talked to her a lot. Dad cooked a table of delicious food. After Jiang Nian and her family had dinner, she returned to her bedroom again and saw the book on the bedside.

Lying on the soft bed, she picked up the book and flipped through it.

When she read it before, the handwriting on the front gradually faded. Now that she opened it, it was blank. If she hadn't really read the content of this book before, Jiang Nian really suspected that her memory was wrong.

She turned over page after page, and the front was blank. When she was almost in the middle, the handwriting was very faint, but she could vaguely see a little. Jiang Nian remembered this place. This was the place where the male protagonist was promoted to the head of the group and then transferred to another city. When the order for the male protagonist's transfer was issued, the female protagonist Sun Ying cried and was reluctant to leave the male protagonist.

Three months before the male protagonist was transferred and left, it was the case that the head of the group Song was transferred and left.

Jiang Nian turned two pages forward and calculated the time. It seemed that it was not quite right with reality. She was too lazy to worry about it anymore, so she turned back and wanted to read the chapter where Sun Ying got married. Who was the man who walked into the wedding room?

Could it be Wu Youshan?

Jiang Nian turned to the page that was folded at the beginning. The handwriting was clear. She nervously turned it back and found the neat black handwriting. She almost jumped up with joy.

The door slowly opened and a man came in. Sun Ying was wearing a red shirt, a red flower on her chest, two braids, and a light red lipstick on her lips. Her charming eyes were filled with tears.

When the man walked into the house, Sun Ying slowly raised her head. When she saw it was Wu Youshan, she lowered her head in disappointment: "What are you doing here?"

Wu Youshan walked over and hugged her, kissed her on the face forcefully, and said almost crazily and morbidly: "Look at me, can I do it? Look at me! Don't be so determined to go in. Do you have to hit a wall before you turn back?"

Sun Ying wanted to break away from him: "I don't need you to care about me!"

"Then who do you want to care about me? Lu Yu? Don't be a idiot. Do you think you can really wait for Lu Yu by putting on red clothes and sitting at home?"

"That's my business too!"

Sun Ying couldn't get away from Wu Youshan and bit his shoulder.

Wu Youshan endured the pain and sneered: "We were originally a couple. We grew up together and understand each other. Yingying, don't be stubborn. Lu Yu is a selfish and cold person. He doesn't love you at all. Only I love you."

...

Jiang Nian blinked. She didn't expect that the situation would turn out like this.

Why do you say Lu Yu is a selfish and cold person?

In the more than half a year she has been with him, she feels that Lu Yu is mature, stable, responsible, smart and wise. How can he be selfish?

She remembered that she put down the book and went to sleep when she saw that the hero and heroine were about to get married, and then she woke up and traveled to this book. The book did write that the hero and heroine fell in love with each other on the train, and their relationship gradually developed.

But why does it not match the content later?

Jiang Nian thought of the disappearing handwriting at the beginning of the book, and wondered if the plot began to change?

She put away her thoughts and turned to the next page to continue reading. When she

turned over, she saw Wu Youshan and Sun Ying making love.

Jiang Nian: ...

She inexplicably felt that there was a green glow on Lu Yu's head.

Jiang Nian turned the page again and wrote that after Sun Ying and Wu Youshan returned home, they came here again to find Lu Yu, but they learned that Lu Yu had been transferred and left. She asked the soldiers in the army, but the soldiers refused to tell her.

This is a military secret, how could it be told to outsiders?

Jiang Nian was stunned for a moment. That's not right. Didn't it say before that the male protagonist had been promoted to the head of the regiment and was transferred, and Sun Ying was still crying and reluctant to let him go? And Sun Ying also knew where the male protagonist was transferred to, so why didn't she know anything here?

The plot is completely messed up?

Jiang Nian was confused by the plot of this book, and always felt that it was irrelevant now.

She flipped the page again and found it was blank again.

She turned to the last chapter without giving up, but it was still blank.

Jiang Nian: …

She sighed, and flipped the page anxiously, and found that the handwriting of the plot where the hero was promoted to the head of the group and was transferred, and Sun Ying couldn't bear to cry, was gone.

Jiang Nian: …

She closed the book and threw it on the bedside, angrily saying: Forget it, destroy it.

The

next morning, Jiang Nian was woken up by Feng Mei.

Feng Mei had a loud voice, lying on the wall and shouting Jiang Nian's name. Jiang Nian got up in a daze, put on her clothes, put on her cotton shoes and walked out of the house. Looking at Feng Mei lying on the wall, her eyes were hurt by the light and felt uncomfortable: "What's wrong?"

"What else? Don't you see the sun? It's almost noon. If we don't go to the market, the market will be closed!"

Jiang Nian: ???

She didn't expect that she slept until now!

"Wait for me, I'll wash up."

Jiang Nian quickly washed up and ran to the stove room. She saw Lu Yu warming up the rice in the pot. He had prepared the rice when he left in the morning. He didn't call her before leaving, and even the horn didn't wake him up.

After eating a few steamed buns, Jiang Nian picked up a small basket and went to the market with Feng Mei.

She thought about the dream she had last night. The plot in the book was a mess. She didn't know when the hero was transferred. If there was no change, it should be three months after Captain Song was promoted and transferred.

"Xu Yan had another quarrel with Captain Liu this morning. Did you hear it?"

Feng Mei said.

Jiang Nian came to her senses: "No."

She slept too soundly.

So she asked, "Why are they quarreling again?"

Feng Mei said, "What else could it be? Isn't it about what happened to Captain Liu's second mother's family last time? Captain Liu's grandmother heard about Captain Liu's second uncle's affairs, and she blamed Captain Liu and Xu Yan for not helping his second uncle, causing the Gu family to be unable to start a family at home. Captain Liu's grandmother said she wanted to come to the army to take care of the children. To put it bluntly, she wanted to make trouble for Captain Liu's family. Xu Yan was not happy about letting the old lady come over, so she had a quarrel with Captain Liu. Think about it, how old is that old lady? Don't make trouble for her. Teng died on the way."

Jiang Nian: ...

It was really unlucky for Xu Yan to be involved with this family: "What happened next?"

Feng Mei said: "Captain Liu said he knew and would write back, asking his grandmother not to come and saying that the army's application was not approved."

Jiang Nian said: "That's not bad."

There were quite a lot of people at the market today, and it was getting warmer in the spring, so everyone was buying vegetable seedlings. There were not many vegetable seedlings in supply at each market, and Feng Mei and Jiang Nian came late, so they only bought pepper seedlings and cucumber seedlings.

Feng Mei glared at her and said, "The next market will be seven days later. If you get up late again, I won't wait for you."

Jiang Nian smiled awkwardly and said, "I will get up before dawn next time."

The two returned to the army and saw Chen Fang and Tang Ze coming out. Chen Fang and Feng Mei snorted at each other and then laughed. Jiang Nian called out, "Sister-in-law Chen, Captain Tang."

"Hey."

Chen Fang responded.

Tang Ze's eyes fell on Jiang Nian's face and smiled. He didn't know what to call her. If he called her sister-in-law, he was older than her and Lu Yu, and calling her by name was not appropriate. Finally, he called her, "Sister-in-law."

When Xu Cheng was alive, he had a good relationship with them.

Jiang Nian was stunned for a moment. He was used to being called sister-in-law, but he was not used to being called sister-in-law for the first time. Feng Mei saw Tang Ze looking at Jiang Nian and dragged Jiang Nian away. As he walked, he said, "Chen Fang, you guys hurry up, we have to go back to make lunch."

Feng Mei let go of her when she got home.

Jiang Nian walked into the house carrying a basket and heard the sound of rushing water coming from the courtyard. When he looked up, he saw Lu Yu standing shirtless by the ditch, pouring water. The man was wearing military green trousers with a black belt buckled around his waist. His legs were long and straight, his upper body was shirtless, his arm muscles were tight and strong, water was dripping from his short hair, and a towel was hung around his neck.

It looked like he had just washed his hair.

Jiang Nian hissed, and his eyes looked uncontrollably at Lu Yu's abdominal muscles.
