Chapter 11 A Flower in the Military Camp
the other side.
The military office is also the command post of the entire army camp.
The seemingly simple two-story cement house is already the best house on the entire island.
In the office.
Zhou Chongshan was looking down at some documents, his cold face showing a look of complete concentration.
When the commander of the Second Regiment, Zhao Guosheng, advanced, he happened to see this scene.
Before Zhao Guosheng could speak, Zhou Chongshan was suddenly startled when he heard the sound of the door opening and footsteps.
He immediately folded the documents in his hand and put them into the drawer.
Seeing this, Zhao Guosheng laughed out loud.
"Third brother, what are you looking at? There can't be any high-level military secrets in this office that even I can't see, right?"
Zhao Guosheng is from Northeast China, with a typical hearty Northeastern temperament and a typical tall Northeastern physique.
He is 35 years old this year and has retired from the front line for several years. He has gained a little weight and is much fatter than before.
As for the title "Old Third".
Because Zhou Chongshan is the third child in the family.
When he arrived at the army, he happened to be the commander of the third regiment, also ranked third in command.
There are five groups on the island. Among the five group leaders, Zhou Chongshan is the youngest and the only one who is not married.
Other married group leaders like to tease Zhou Chongshan on a daily basis.
Joking remarks are common.
Zhou Chongshan is always calm and composed.
Don't get involved in the topic and don't take it personally.
But this time...
Zhou Chongshan's reaction was quite subtle, with a flash of embarrassment on his face.
He said, "It's not military information."
As for what his was, he didn't say.
Because that was... the personal information that Jiang Rou stuffed into his pocket.
The information above is simple and clear, including Jiang Rou's school and work history from childhood to adulthood, as well as some basic information such as date of birth.
At the same time...
There was also a photo of Jiang Rou on it.
A small, black and white, one-inch photo.
Jiang Rou in the photo looks younger. It must have been taken when she was in school. She must be only sixteen or seventeen years old at most.
At that time, she still had baby fat and her hair was a little shorter than it is now.
The short braids were tied into two pigtails and hung quietly on the shoulders.
As pure and clean as spring water.
And now, she has even more of the charm and brightness that is unique to women.
Zhou Chongshan was staring at the photo and was lost in thought, so he didn't notice Zhao Guosheng's footsteps and his panicking hiding.
Fortunately, Zhao Guosheng didn't care.
After he entered the office, he took out a folding steel bed and a military blanket from the corner.
While making the bed, he spoke with his back to Zhou Chongshan.
"Zhou Chongshan, you are amazing! You actually hid such a beautiful wife in the countryside and waited until now to bring her back. Let me tell you, within half a day, the whole barracks knew that your wife is a great beauty. She will be the most beautiful lady in the barracks. Those battalion commanders and company commanders are jealous of her."
Zhou Chongshan said solemnly, "She is not my wife yet."
"If it's not now, how can it be not in the future? The girl came to you on her own initiative, just to marry you, you kid, you won't be ungrateful for what you have, right?"
As Zhao Guosheng spoke, he turned around and glanced at Zhou Chongshan.
You won’t know until you see it.
Only after seeing this did he realize something was wrong.
"Oh my God! Zhou Chongshan, you are not really going to give up such a beautiful wife just for those two little ones? Are you planning to be a bachelor for the rest of your life?"
Zhao Guosheng exclaimed.
He knew how much Zhou Chongshan cared about the two orphaned children of his comrades from the same village, and he also knew that Zhou Chongshan did not intend to have children of his own.
You can give up your child, but how can you give up your wife? !
Facing Zhao Guosheng's questioning, Zhou Chongshan's throat was so dry that he couldn't utter the firm words he used to.
Zhao Guosheng saw this.
He is a veteran and also a brother in the trenches.
He made a few suggestions.
"Third brother, if you don't want your wife, the bachelors in the barracks will be like a group of hungry wolves, all vying for her! Think about it yourself, don't regret it later."
Zhao Guosheng spoke in a leisurely tone.
The quilt was casually spread on the steel bed, and then the body fell down and lay down directly without even taking off shoes.
When Zhou Chongshan heard what Zhao Guosheng said, his brows suddenly furrowed.
When he thought of the scene of Jiang Rou being surrounded by a group of men, a flash of anger suddenly appeared in his dark eyes.
He took a quick, deep breath.
Suppress the unnecessary thoughts.
The attention was turned to Zhao Guosheng, who came to the military office to sleep late at night.
"Zhao Tuan, why don't you go home and sleep? Isn't your sister-in-law worried?"
"I get angry when I talk about that woman! Ever since I came to this island, she has been complaining that I don't wash my feet or my butt before going to bed! What's there to wash? When I was at the front, there were times when I didn't take a shower for ten days or half a month! Why didn't she complain then? Now that life is better, she's even picky..."
Zhao Guosheng's wife is from the same village as him.
His surname was also Zhao, and his name was Zhao Guifen.
The two of them grew up together, naked, and can be considered childhood sweethearts.
They got married when they were young, and later Zhao Guosheng joined the army, and Zhao Guifen waited for him in his hometown.
They have been married for more than ten years and have two sons.
After Zhao Guosheng stationed on the island, he brought Zhao Guifen and the children back.
On weekdays, they are a loving couple.
It was Zhao Guosheng's rough lifestyle that was often disliked by Zhao Guifen.
"I led the soldiers on a 30-kilometer training march today. My feet are full of stinky sweat. My wife will definitely dislike me when I get home. I won't make myself unhappy. I will sleep in the office tonight and go back to have breakfast tomorrow morning..."
Zhao Guosheng spoke with his eyes closed, and as he spoke, he fell asleep in a daze.
On the other hand, Zhou Chongshan, who was standing aside, looked thoughtful as he listened to Zhao Guosheng's words.
It turns out that a husband who doesn't wash his feet or buttocks will be disliked by his wife.
The rules for being a husband should be written down in a small notebook.
…
The next day, early morning.
The sunrise on the island is particularly early, and the sunlight, along with the sea breeze, shines on this land early.
When Jiang Rou got up, the first thing she had to deal with was her clothes.
After taking a shower yesterday, the clothes I wore are no longer wearable.
The white shirt was too small for her and Zhou Chongshan almost saw her naked yesterday. If she wore it again today and the buttons broke, she would be doomed.
Jiang Rou didn't expect that the original owner of this body had a better figure than her in her previous life.
Be thin where you should be thin, and gain weight where you should gain weight.
Special bumps and curves.
The old clothes Jiang Rou brought were not suitable either.
She had no choice but to search in the closet.
Zhou Chongshan's house was filled with the aura of single men, and the same was true in the closet.
All the clothes were stacked neatly, all like small pieces of tofu.
Zhou Chongshan doesn't have many clothes, just a few military uniforms that he wears on a daily basis.
In addition, there were a few people in the corner wearing old military uniforms.
Not only were there patches on the clothes, but they had also shrunk from being washed so many times.
Jiang Rou took the clothes and tried them on herself. It seemed that she could wear them.
She put on her white marine uniform, the long sleeves rolled up and secured with a few simple stitches at the elbows.
The hem was too long, so she just took a pair of scissors and cut it short.
Then he grabbed the corner of his clothes and tied a knot around his waist.
The loose shirt fits me instantly.
Jiang Rou looked down and was quite satisfied.
When she walked out the door, she found that the two children had already gotten up and were still wearing the same clothes as yesterday.
Although it was dirty, the buttons were buttoned carefully.
The two young guys brought some small stools and sat under the eaves, looking at the empty yard, as if they were waiting for someone.
Jiang Rou looked at them curiously.
Zhou Xiaochuan seemed to have eyes on his back. He immediately turned around and glared at Jiang Rou.
At the same time, his little hands hugged Zhou Xiaohua who was standing beside him.
It seems that the words "evil stepmother" are still written on Jiang Rou's face.
The atmosphere was subtly tense.
A series of footsteps were heard outside the yard.
As soon as I heard that sound.
Zhou Xiaohua stood up from the stool happily, jumping up and down as if she was about to rush out.
She was grabbed by her brother Zhou Xiaochuan.
"Xiaohua, just sit still. If you walk too fast, you'll fall. The last time you fell, it hurt so much that you cried. Have you forgotten it so quickly?"
Zhou Xiaohua couldn't say a word, so she could only nod and sit down obediently.
There was still a sweet smile on her rosy face.
Even the little wolf cub Zhou Xiaochuan was looking outside the door with bright and shining eyes.
Jiang Rou saw it all.
I became curious.
Who on earth could make these two children so happy and excited?
