Zuo Ling didn't want to let go of the ready-made drama:
"Hey, that girl is pretty and comes from a good family. Why don't you consider her?"
Pei Nansheng glanced at her sideways:
"I remember not long ago, someone said they were willing to take care of me. How can they want to kick me out so soon?"
"It's like welcoming a new baby into the family. In a year or two, we'll have another chubby baby. That would be a joy too."
Zuo Ling thought about it more and more and it seemed feasible. Her milk powder, toys, and children's clothes in her space would finally come in handy.
"You're dreaming. Putting aside your secrets, there's a devil watching you from the shadows. How can you settle down and start a family?"
"Speaking of which, I'd like to discuss this with you. We can't just wait passively; we have to take the initiative."
"Hmph, I thought you'd forgotten."
"..."
As they talked, the brother and sister forgot about the marriage proposal.
They forgot, but the Zhou family did not.
The next day, He Guiqi rushed over excitedly and immediately asked for wedding candy as soon as he entered the door.
"Wedding candy? What wedding candy?"
He Guiqi's expression was exaggerated:
"It's all over the place. People are saying that Brother Pei and Political Commissar Zhou's daughter have hit it off and are getting married soon."
Pei Nansheng's face darkened. Since they didn't talk about yesterday's events outside, it could only be the Zhou family who told them.
Aren't they afraid that if things don't go well, Zhou Yuanyuan's reputation will be damaged and she won't be able to get married?
...
"Mom, things aren't settled yet, how can you talk nonsense like that? I can't even go out now."
Zhou Yuanyuan lost her temper with Huang.
On her way to work in the morning, acquaintances congratulated her all the way. When she arrived at the service center, several colleagues also congratulated her, leaving Zhou Yuanyuan completely bewildered.
Only after asking did I find out what had happened.
After returning from Zuo Ling's house, Huang told several gossipy people in the neighborhood.
Commissar Zhou's daughter is engaged.
Who are you engaged to?
Who, who, who is Pei Nansheng? He's the one who traded 30 kilograms of compressed biscuits for snake venom.
Wow, this is big news!
In the bleak end times, with few joyous events, suddenly something happened that spread as fast as a plague.
"Once we're married, you'll be thanking me profusely."
Huang was absolutely certain that she wouldn't let her chosen son-in-law slip away.
First, secure your position. Then, anyone who tries to take advantage of Pei Nansheng will have to think twice about his old man's position.
Political Commissar Zhou took some time to go home and asked his wife, "Our daughter is engaged? Why didn't you discuss it with me?"
Huang rolled her eyes: "You haven't been home for days. I'm telling you, we have to find you first."
Political Commissar Zhou said awkwardly, "Well, I'm back now."
The base is being improved step by step, with countless tasks and endless work to be done every day.
"Hmph, you're busy, you're so busy. Without you, the earth wouldn't even turn."
Huang said irritably.
"You've worked so hard, honey. Come here, come here, let me give you a massage." Commissar Zhou had a knack for coaxing his wife.
Huang was easily swayed by her husband's gentle persuasion:
"You'd better give me a good squeeze. Once Yuan Yuan's marriage is settled, you'll be set to enjoy a life of luxury."
Political Commissar Zhou stopped what he was doing: "Is the marriage with Pei Nansheng really settled?"
Huang looked at her husband in surprise: "Oh my, that's incredible, you even know their names."
In Huang's memory, her husband was a stubborn old man who didn't care about anything except work.
Political Commissar Zhou was getting a little anxious: "I'm asking you."
Huang suddenly realized something was wrong.
Political Commissar Zhou's expression was complicated: "That's not it."
His wife had mentioned Pei Nansheng to him once, but he didn't take it too seriously.
There are more men than women in the base, so even ugly girls can get married. Someone like his daughter has no trouble finding a husband.
Today, many people, both acquaintances and strangers, congratulated him. He received so many phone calls that the line was practically burning. Even if he's slow to react, he eventually realized something was wrong.
After some inquiries, it was discovered that the brother and sister were no ordinary people.
Many of his old comrades laughed at him, saying that he had found a treasure in his family but didn't even know it.
"No, no, why are you making that face?"
"Do you know that the brother and sister are not ordinary people?"
"I know, you can tell just by looking at that big compound. Hey old man, what kind of background do they have that the army gave them such a big compound? Whose nephews or nieces are they? One is surnamed Pei, and the other is surnamed Zuo. I've never heard of anyone with those surnames..."
The higher-ups deliberately downplayed the fact that Zuo Ling and her brother were superhumans. Huang only knew that the brother and sister had some abilities, but not the specifics.
"You didn't even do your research before arranging a marriage for your daughter?"
Huang was unhappy:
"How come we didn't find out? Pei Nansheng deals in things at the market, his sister works at a plantation, and his brother is Chief Mei's bodyguard. There's also a wolf, a dog, and a fat rabbit at home."
Family relationships can be simple or complex.
If it weren't for the fact that a wolf, a dog, and a rabbit were so eye-catching, they wouldn't have attracted Huang's attention.
"Oh dear, my daughter is afraid of wolves and dogs. After they get married, I'll have to have a serious talk with my son-in-law and make sure the wolves and dogs stay away from her. When she's pregnant, she absolutely can't let them touch her..."
Huang's thoughts drifted further and further away.
Political Commissar Zhou looked at his wife speechlessly.
