After the annual meeting, Su Group began its annual holiday. Su Nuan stayed at home to rest, while waiting for Gu Chengfeng's call.
Two days later, Su Nuan received a call from the army. Gu Chengfeng said on the phone that she had to stay in the army on duty during the New Year holiday and could not take a leave.
Upon hearing the news, Su Nuan was a little disappointed.
Gu Chengfeng also heard it, and suddenly changed the subject and asked her if she would like to come to the army to celebrate the New Year.
Su Nuan had never celebrated the New Year in the army, so she became interested in this and immediately asked what people did during the New Year in the army.
"On New Year's Eve, all the officers and soldiers will make dumplings together and prepare the New Year's Eve dinner in the canteen. Then we can watch the Spring Festival Gala and eat the New Year's Eve dinner together."
“Sounds quite lively.”
"Yes, there will be a consolation performance by the art troupe on the first day of the Lunar New Year. You can watch the performance live."
"What kind of performances do they usually perform?"
"Some song and dance performances, as well as skits and so on"
"That's fine. Since you can't come back anyway, it's pointless for me to go back to Beijing alone. Since you have to be on duty during the New Year, should I be merciful and go to the army to spend the New Year with you?"
"Oh, thank you for taking pity on me, my wife. I'll wait for you to come over!"
"I'll go out and buy some New Year's goods. You can clean up the house in the compound in the next two days. I'll be there around tomorrow."
"Okay, I'll wait for you to come over."
After hanging up the phone, Su Nuan called Chen Meirong.
"Sister Chen, have you prepared all the New Year's goods at home?"
"There's still some left. I plan to go out and buy some later."
"Wait a minute, let Johnson and Jack go with you, driving two cars. Cheng Feng will be on duty in the army this year, and I plan to go to the army to spend the New Year with him. When buying New Year's goods, you can buy more, and I will take some to the army tomorrow."
"Okay, what kind of New Year's goods do you think would be suitable for the army?"
"I'm not too sure. Candy, melon seeds and snacks are essential. I'll also buy some meat so I can cook when the time comes. It wasn't too cold when I stayed there last time, but now it's getting colder. Prepare some thick quilts and winter supplies. That should be enough. If it's not enough, I'll call home and you can have someone deliver it."
"Oh, okay."
Chen Meirong went back to her room, picked up a small bag, and went out to buy things with two strong laborers, Johnson and Jack.
Su Nuan sat in the warm living room, drinking tea and reading.
Annie, who was standing by, was bored and eating melon seeds.
Su Nuan saw that she looked bored and asked curiously.
"Annie, are you bored?"
"Well, miss, aren't you bored?"
"I'm not bored! It's so cold outside, I won't go out and suffer. It's so comfortable to drink tea and read a book at home."
"Alas, I can't learn to do this like you. I'm almost getting moldy at home."
“It’s better to stay at home.”
"Miss, I just heard you say that you are going to the army to celebrate the New Year, right?"
"Yes, Cheng Feng can't take a vacation this year, so I can only go to the army to accompany him, otherwise he will be so pitiful."
Hearing Su Nuan's unconscious words of showing off her love, Annie shuddered all over, but she was still very curious about how the army celebrated the New Year.
"Miss, what are the arrangements for the New Year in the army?"
"It was also my first time to celebrate Chinese New Year in the military. I don't know the details, but Cheng Feng said that on New Year's Eve, all the officers and soldiers would eat New Year's Eve dinner, make dumplings, and watch the Spring Festival Gala."
"Oh, by the way, there will be a consolation performance by the art troupe on the first day of the new year!"
"It sounds so lively."
"Yeah, why do you want to go?"
"I want to go. Can you take me with you to the army?"
"Of course you can, but you didn't like crowds before, why did you suddenly change?"
“That…that…”
"Stop this and that, just speak quickly."
"I heard that my uncle's special forces team is very powerful. I want to go to the army and compete with them."
"What? So you went to the army to find someone to fight? How come Johnson and Jack aren't enough for you to practice with?"
"I'm tired of fighting them both. Now I'm staying at home all day and I'm falling apart."
"You're a girl, why are you always thinking about fighting? How are you going to get married in the future?"
"I've never thought about getting married. I want to be with you forever!"
"What? I still have to take care of you for the rest of your life."
"That's not right."
"Well, but having said that, I've been busy with company matters these past few years and really neglected your marriage. You don't have that mindset. Johnson and Jack are already grown up and young, why don't they plan to get married?"
"Miss, Johnson, don't worry about it. Jack does nothing but eat and sleep every day. Instead of asking me to find a wife, I might as well find him a nanny!"
Su Nuan grasped the key point immediately, stopped reading the book, and immediately went to Annie to gossip curiously.
"What do you mean, don't worry about it, Johnson? Is there something I don't know?"
After Su Nuan asked this, Annie finally realized that she had let the cat out of the bag. She quickly covered her mouth with her hand and shook her head to deny it.
How could Su Nuan not see that Annie was trying to hide her true intentions, so she threatened her.
"Hurry up and tell me what's going on. If you don't, don't even think about me taking you to the army to fight during the New Year. Don't even think about it."
"I can't go during the Chinese New Year, I can go later. I promised Brother Johnson, I can't say it, as a man, you can't go back on your word."
"Really? You can't go back on your word. Do you believe me or not, I will make sure you never enter the army gate in your lifetime?"
"Miss, you are making things difficult for me."
"Annie, if you tell me secretly, I'll tell everyone. Do you believe it?"
"Really, don't make it public"
"Really? When did you see me lying to you?"
