Chapter 255 Attack, little rabbit~
Qin Jiulie knew there was no way to persuade Jiang Ning.
He looked into Jiang Ning's sparkling eyes and smiled dotingly.
He warned.
"Then go put on your scarf and gloves."
"Okay, I'll listen to my husband."
Jiang Ning smiled sweetly.
Her scarf and gloves were newly bought recently, and Qin Jiulie took the time to go down the mountain to pick them out.
Choose the best wool texture.
It feels soft and warm to the touch.
Still a warm light brown.
Wearing it on Jiang Ning, it makes her look more petite and feminine.
Qin Jiulie's hands were stained with coal and were black, so he was unable to help Jiang Ning put on the scarf himself.
Just watching silently from the side.
Watching Jiang Ning wrap the scarf around his neck in circles.
The fair and beautiful face was immersed in softness.
After Gao Fang distributed the supplies in front, he came to report the situation to Qin Jiulie.
As soon as I walked in, I saw the couple looking at each other sweetly.
This heroic young man is finally no longer as stupid as before.
He scratched his hair awkwardly.
"Qin Tuan, sister-in-law, am I here at the wrong time?"
Why did he feel like he was shining, like a light bulb?
Gao Fang said that he had grown up, but not completely grown up.
Because if he really understood, he wouldn't ask such a question.
Jiang Ning looked at Gao Fang, smiled and shook his head.
Qin Jiulie threw the tools in his hand to Gao Fang and let him do the work.
Gao Fang was originally feeling awkward and at a loss as to what to do, but now that he had the tools, he felt relieved.
"Qin Tuan, you and sister-in-law can take a rest, I'll do it!"
Gao Fang's military uniform is new.
He was reluctant to get it dirty, so he took it off and put it in a clean place aside.
Under his military uniform was an old, patched sweater that was a little small and obviously didn't fit him.
But he is young and energetic.
No one would really look down on him because of his current predicament.
Qin Jiulie didn't really let Gao Fang work alone.
He held the shovel and stirred it aside, while Qin Jiulie picked up the honeycomb coal mold and pounded it heavily on the ground again and again.
Fill the mold tightly with coal.
The lower right corner is the mold
Boom boom boom!
It was not only Jiang Ning's family that was experiencing this problem. The sound of "dong dong dong" could also be heard from the yards of other houses around here.
Boom boom boom… Boom boom boom…
The sounds overlapped together, like a rich symphony.
You can even hear the men competing with each other.
"You didn't do this well. Why aren't the honeycomb coals round? Look, there's a corner missing."
"It doesn't matter if a corner is missing, as long as it can be used. I'm much faster than you. I'm already halfway done. You're so slow. Speed is the essence of war, right?"
"I still use deception as a weapon! I wasn't serious just now. Let's compete again!"
"Okay, the two of you... are both battalion commanders, why are you still competing with these young boys..."
Everyone was noisy and there was none of the depressing atmosphere that had been in the sewing class before.
As they worked together, everyone seemed to have temporarily forgotten about the war.
Yang Rui’s home which is a little further away.
Zhao Shuisheng was working hard, pounding the mold in his hand heavily on the ground.
He had a lot of strength in his body, but nowhere to use it, so he exerted it to the fullest at this moment.
The honeycomb coals have been made into several rows.
Yang Rui was standing aside, taking small steps back and forth.
She looked at the neatly arranged honeycomb briquettes, then at the man working hard, and spoke with a tight pursed mouth.
"Don't you have anything to say to me?"
Zhao Shuisheng's hands moved swiftly, but suddenly stopped.
The man's rough face looked at Yang Rui.
"When you use honeycomb coal for heating, you must open the window and leave a gap at night, otherwise something bad will happen."
"This honeycomb coal is not that easy to light, and I won't be home at that time. I asked the sister-in-law next door to come and see you more often. If you have any problems, ask her for help. Don't be embarrassed."
"It's going to snow soon. When it snows, the mountain roads are hard to walk on. When you go to school, remember to wear the shoes I prepared for you. There are straw ropes tied to the soles of those shoes, which makes it easier to walk."
"If you don't like cooking, you can also go to my sister-in-law's house next door to eat. Don't forget to give her the food coupons I left behind."
"Don't be afraid when you are alone at night. The compound is full of people. There is nothing to be afraid of. There are soldiers at the sentry post and they won't let anyone in."
A not very careful person racked his brains and said everything he could think of.
But after saying so much, it was not what Yang Rui wanted to hear.
Yang Rui felt a little angry.
But the long-term married life also made her realize that she liked such a slow-witted man.
Zhao Shuisheng couldn't guess what she was thinking.
He couldn't guess.
She just said it straight.
Yang Rui walked up to Zhao Shuisheng.
Her cheeks and nose were red from the cold wind, and her eyes were watery.
More like a little rabbit.
"Zhao Shuisheng, follow me.
"What?"
"Say you will come back safely."
Yang Rui tilted her head back, staring straight ahead with her watery eyes.
Zhao Shuisheng's throat choked and he swallowed hard.
He said in a hoarse and low voice.
"I will definitely come back safely."
Only then was Yang Rui satisfied.
She quickly lowered her eyes to hide the blush that was rising in the corners of her eyes.
With her back turned, she whispered back
"Why don't I like cooking? I've obviously made a lot of progress..."
…
Next to Jiangning, in front of Liu Xiangmei's house.
Liu Xiangmei and Chen Wenbin, a married couple, are busy making honeycomb coal.
Their lives have always been hard. If it weren't for Qin Jiulie's blessing, the whole family, young and old, would never have used coal for heating.
It was the first time for the two of them to make it, and the honeycomb coal they pressed out at the beginning could not take shape.
After doing it a few more times, I gradually got the hang of it.
The couple worked together.
Daya and Erya, who were standing nearby, also came along to help.
The little girl was not afraid of the cold. She grabbed the black coal with her little hands and squeezed it into small balls.
Small coal briquettes are also useful.
Surrounding the big honeycomb coal.
"Dad, Mom, look... this is made by Daya! It's round, just like a bun."
"Dad, Mom, and Arya did it too...she did a lot!"
"Good boy~ You all did a great job. If you feel cold, go back and wash your hands, don't freeze."!
"Da Ya and Er Ya need to help mom and dad!"
"Hahaha, what a good girl of mine!"
Happy laughter came from next door to Jiang Ning's ears.
She looked back at the happy Liu Xiangmei's family, then lowered her head and touched her belly.
It won't be long.
Their family will also be such a harmonious family of four.
When Jiang Ning raised his eyes again, he just saw Gao Fang taking off his new military uniform and placing it aside.
On the shoulders of the military uniform...
Jiang Ning's eyes paused.
That shoulder strap... company commander.
Gao Fang was the company commander of the recruit company last time, and Jiang Ning thought he had been promoted.
But Gao Fang said that it was only temporary, and everything would return to normal after the recruit camp was over.
But now.
Just before the expedition, Gao Fang was suddenly promoted.
This time, he is the real company commander!
Jiang Ning looked at the shoulder strap and his heart sank.
——
(A brief explanation here: accepting a task in a time of crisis is a kind of pressure and burden. It is not a good thing to promote Gao Fang at this time.)
