On New Year's Eve, Su Nuan woke up from the warm bed, moved her extremely aching waist, and got up from the bed with difficulty.
The couple still cannot be separated for a long time, especially when the other person is a soldier with super strong physical strength. After this night's tossing and turning, Su Nuan felt like she was about to fall apart.
After getting up, her legs felt a little weak, and she almost fell to the ground when she got up. Fortunately, Gu Chengfeng came in from outside at this time and grabbed her with his big hands, so she did not fall to the ground.
"Wife, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Su Nuan couldn't help but roll her eyes at him and asked him to help her sit on the bed.
"What's wrong? What's wrong with me?"
At this time, Gu Chengfeng finally reacted and quickly smiled.
"Wife, I was wrong. I accept the beating and scolding. Please calm down."
"It's all your fault. How can I go out and see people?"
"It's still early, you continue to lie down and rest for a while, I'll go get some water for you to wash up."
After saying that, Gu Chengfeng happily went out to fetch water.
After being served, Su Nuan washed up and went to the kitchen to bring breakfast.
Su Nuan took the breakfast and asked while eating.
"Why haven't you gone to work at the army yet?"
"I'm not going today. I'll stay at home with you. I won't come back to sleep tonight. You and Aunt Mei should close the shop and rest early."
"Why don't you come back at night? Do you have a mission?"
"No, according to military tradition, on New Year's Eve, officers above the company level must relieve the soldiers on guard duty, allowing them to have a good rest and celebrate the Spring Festival."
"I see. Can you handle standing guard in such cold weather?"
"It's okay. Those soldiers do this every day. My one night is nothing. Besides, I'm strong and healthy. Don't worry."
"When you're on duty at night, remember to wear the knee pads I gave you. Your legs are injured, don't catch a cold."
"Okay, you take a rest later. There will be an activity in the army later, and I can take you to see the excitement."
"What activities?"
"It's a singing competition and tug-of-war competition organized spontaneously by each class."
"When does it start?"
"Singing competition at 8 a.m., tug-of-war at 1 p.m."
"Then I'm going to go take a look."
"Okay, it's still early, let's go later."
Gu Chengfeng cleaned up the dishes that Su Nuan had eaten and went to the kitchen.
As for Su Nuan, after she recovered, she felt fine except for some soreness.
After getting up from the bed, he went to the closet to look for clothes.
When Gu Chengfeng came in, he saw Su Nuan dive into the closet.
"Wife, what are you looking for?"
"I'm looking for clothes to see what will fit me."
"Well, it's a bit cold today, remember to wear something warmer. Change your clothes first, I'll wait for you outside."
"OK"
Su Nuan responded without turning her head and continued to search.
By the time everything was cleaned up, half an hour had passed.
Gu Chengfeng didn't show any impatience at all. After seeing her come out, he hurried forward.
"I remember you had a white scarf. Did you bring it?"
"I brought it, what's wrong?"
"Go put on your scarf, it's windy, don't get caught in the wind"
Su Nuan had no choice but to go back to her room to get the scarf and put it on. Only then was Gu Chengfeng satisfied.
Taking the three of them, we went to the military parade ground in addition to the family compound. There were a lot of people gathered in the parade ground at that time, and there were also many family members watching the fun.
Gu Chengfeng took the three of them to a place sheltered from the wind, sat down and watched, while he went to check on his own team.
Soon, the singing competition began. Each class performed a song and the judges gave scores.
The songs in the singing competition were all red songs and military songs. To be honest, they were not very pleasant to listen to, but they sounded majestic. The soldiers sang with their heads held high, their confidence soaring.
After the singing competition in the morning, everyone went home to cook. In the afternoon, there was a tug-of-war competition, and Su Nuan was very curious.
After the few of them had a simple meal, Su Nuan urged Gu Chengfeng to lead the way.
There were even more people participating in the tug-of-war competition in the afternoon. Tug-of-war competitions emphasize teamwork. Participants are divided into companies, and a draw determines the order of priority and the opposing teams.
During the warm-up before the game, you can see everyone's determination to win, and no one of them shows any sign of weakness.
This is the unyielding spirit in the bones of Chinese soldiers. When the strong and powerful invaders, armed with advanced weapons, set foot on Chinese soil, it was those predecessors who were not afraid of life and death and refused to admit defeat who fought to protect the country.
Today, the new generation of soldiers who inherit the legacy of their predecessors still have the spirit of not giving up flowing in their blood, even in a simple tug-of-war competition.
It is thanks to these iron-blooded men that China has the peace it has today.
After the game started, Su Nuan couldn't help but join in the cheering. Although she was not familiar with those soldiers, her cheering did not diminish at all.
The whistle blew, and the team she favored won the game. Su Nuan danced with joy.
Gu Chengfeng, who was standing by, protected her to prevent her from falling, and let her play with a doting smile on his face.
The tug-of-war competition was over and night fell. Several people who had planned to go back home to cook were taken to the cafeteria by Gu Chengfeng.
"Can family members attend your unit's New Year's Eve dinner?"
"Of course, don't you see that many family members are going to the cafeteria one after another?"
"I see"
Su Nuan followed Gu Chengfeng into the cafeteria and found a place to sit down. Not far away, Gu Chengfeng's soldiers saw Su Nuan and greeted her happily.
Su Nuan had also seen several of the soldiers and responded happily.
Soon, the soldiers from the kitchen team came out with large pots of food. The cafeteria was in an uproar and everyone cheered.
Looking at the food on the table, the meal is indeed good, with plenty of fish and meat. No wonder so many young men are cheering!
After the leaders had finished fighting, they gave the order and started eating.
Gu Chengfeng kept picking up food for Su Nuan, but Su Nuan was just concentrating on eating. Maybe it was because there were so many people around and the dining atmosphere was good, but in the end she almost ate too much.
After dinner, candies, snacks and tea were served, and everyone sat in the cafeteria to watch the Spring Festival Gala.
Watching the performance on TV, everyone is talking about it. This kind of scene can only be seen here.
Starting at eight o'clock, everyone started making dumplings, some kneading the dough, some rolling the dough.
Although there were many people, everyone was not panicked at all and divided the work and cooperated in an orderly manner.
In this era, flour is a fine grain, so everyone cherishes it and does not waste any of it. However, there are several kinds of fillings.
Dumplings with leek and egg filling, cabbage and pork filling, shepherd's purse, etc.
Su Nuan had never made dumplings before, so she followed Gu Chengfeng and learned how to make them.
Because there were so many people eating, everyone was busy for almost two hours before they finished wrapping the dumplings.
The soldiers in the kitchen took the wrapped dumplings back to the kitchen to cook them in plates.
It was almost twelve o'clock when the hot dumplings came out of the pot. Gu Chengfeng was in a hurry to go on guard duty, so he ate a few bites of dumplings and left.
Su Nuan and Aunt Annie Mei ate quite a bit, trying all kinds of fillings. Then the three of them went home arm in arm to rest.
