"Let's go." Jiang Xi came over.
Shen Moshun took the bag from her.
The two of them got in a jeep and went to the family compound. It would take more than half an hour to walk there, but it only took less than an hour to drive there.
Arriving at the gate of his family compound, Shen Mo parked the car at the door.
The car could have been driven in, but he didn't.
Jiang Xixiao would not ask any questions.
There were soldiers standing guard in front of the family compound, and they all knew Shen Mo.
After seeing Shen Mo perform the military salute, he remained motionless and his eyes fell on Jiang Liu who got off the car with Shen Mo.
Shen Mo has always lived in the military dormitory. He is usually either in training or on missions. The wives of soldiers in the family compound don't know him at all.
But in the past two days, Shen Mo has been going back and forth to the family compound frequently, and it is hard for the military wives not to get to know him.
What's more, Shen Mo has outstanding looks and a dignified bearing, and the military wives couldn't help but ask their men out of curiosity who he is.
When they learned about Shen Mo's military position, many people were surprised. They didn't expect that Shen Mo, who looked young, was already the deputy head of the regiment.
In the family compound, only married men would apply.
Many people have long wanted to see what Shen Mo's wife looks like.
It was working hours, and there were not many people in the family compound, but there were some people who were free at home.
The family compound was expanded, so there was only one way to go in. Near the gate of the family compound was the newest building, and it took a few more minutes to walk inside to reach the bungalow with a yard that Shen Mo had applied for.
Jiang Xing looked at these houses curiously. She had completely accepted the fact that she had traveled through a book and came to a new and strange world. She looked around like a curious baby.
The buildings being built now are very simple tube-shaped buildings, which are continuous from top to bottom. Every household puts a coal stove at the door of their house for cooking. This kind of house was quite rare at that time, but it would be a slum nowadays.
Fortunately, she did not let Shen Mo apply for a building. Nowadays, no one thinks about sound insulation in houses. If there is a quarrel at home, everyone in the whole building can hear it.
Jiang Xing looked at these 'old bosses' with curiosity. Some military wives living in the building heard the gossip and immediately stuck their heads out to look at Shen Mo and Jiang Xing who walked into the family compound.
Some people went downstairs to watch the excitement. Neighbors always wanted to get to know them, and a military wife even pretended to pass by and greeted them.
"You must be Comrade Shen who is about to move in." A passing military dependent greeted Shen Mo, "I thought you were the child of one of my sister-in-law's family who joined the army."
In fact, these military dependents had no interest in Shen Mo. While greeting Shen Mo, they secretly looked at Jiang Liu beside him.
When Jiang Qing noticed the other person's gaze was on her, she smiled politely. She really couldn't make friends with someone she didn't know well.
I met a few people along the way and greeted them all, and finally arrived at the house that Shen Mo applied for.
Little did she know that a country girl with a bun who she had never met before suddenly came to the family compound.
Soon the news spread and everyone in the hospital knew about it.
*
Jiang Liu looked at the house in front of him. It was not as new as the newly built building in front, but it was not old either.
Shen Mo took out two keys and handed one to Jiang Xi.
Jiang Qi readily took the key, and Shen Mo used his own key to unlock the door. The two wooden doors were pushed open at the same time, and a scene inside came into view.
The first thing Jiang Gui saw was a tree in the left corner. The tree had lush branches and a strong root. The branches looked very solid. One could tell at a glance that the tree was quite old.
Two sturdy ropes were hung on the outstretched branches, and below the ropes was a polished wooden board that was large enough for two people to sit on.
When he saw the swing, Jiang Xing was stunned for a moment.
I couldn't help but think of what she said two days ago. She said she wanted a swing in the yard, and now the swing was right in front of her.
What surprised her was not only this, the walkway into the courtyard was a stone path that led directly to the inner room, and on the right side of the stone path there was a slightly deeper pit with red bricks laid inside.
There is no need to guess, Jiang Xi knows what this pit is used for.
When she said she wanted a swing, Shen Mo found a house with trees and hung a swing for her. When she said she wanted to raise fish, Shen Mo dug a hole in the house to make a pool.
This man took her words too seriously.
It is obvious that Shen Mo has been busy with the house these two days.
It would be a lie to say that I wasn't touched. They were going to get divorced sooner or later, and they were only living together for a short time. Shen Mo took her words so seriously. He was really a good man.
Shen Mo saw her sparkling eyes and felt happy, all the fatigue and tiredness of the past two days disappeared.
Seeing her happy, it was worth it that he asked Qian Feng and Yang Zhengtu to clean up the yard together, put up a swing, and build a pool.
Shen Mo took Jiang Xing to look at the layout of the entire house. On the left was a tree and a small house that was slightly shorter than the main room. The tree could almost cover the entire open space on the left, which was very suitable for keeping cool and growing flowers in the summer.
Shen Mo had turned the corner of the right door into a pool. The mud beside the pool looked fertile and fluffy, and could be used to grow flowers and vegetables.
Further ahead is the kitchen, where we cook.
Shen Mo took Jiang Luo past the kitchen and walked back. When they got there, she discovered that there was a small backyard where the toilet was.
After visiting the backyard, we came to the front yard and took Jiang Liu into the main hall. The main hall was a rectangular room with three rooms. The middle was the living room. There was a door on the right that led directly to the kitchen, and there was a room on the left.
When you walk into the room, you will see all the basic furniture, such as bed, desk, closet, etc.
"These are the supplies provided by the army for settling in." Shen Mo explained, "This room is for you to sleep in. You can add things as you like."
Although the basic furniture is in place, it still looks a bit empty.
After the house was almost tidied up, Shen Mo took her to see if there was anything else she needed to buy.
When Jiang Xi heard him say this, he knew that he had no intention of sleeping with her, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
After being single for a lifetime, she suddenly got a husband. It was still a bit awkward for her to sleep with a man.
But she couldn't help but ask, "Where do you sleep?"
Shen Mo said, "There is a small room outside the room. I will sleep there."
Jiang Xing nodded and walked into the house. The house was very clean, without even a trace of dust.
Obviously someone had scanned it in advance.
Jiang Xi knew that Shen Mo had done all this. She asked, "You've already cleaned it up? Why didn't you call me?"
"The house has not been occupied for a long time, it's very messy, and it's not something a girl like you can clean up." Shen Mo said in a low voice, "I asked Qian Feng and Yang Zhengtu to clean it up together, it didn't take much time."
Jiang Xing nodded, thought for a moment and said, "Once the house is ready, I'll cook a meal to thank them."
Maybe this yard will not be hers in the future, but she feels comfortable living here now.
When Shen Mo heard her take the initiative to ask for dinner, he knew that she was very satisfied with this yard. For some reason, he just didn't want Jiang Xing to work hard. After thinking for a while, he said, "If you don't like cooking, I can do it."
Hearing this, Jiang Xi looked at him in surprise.
She was surprised that Shen Mo could actually cook.
In this era when there are still some feudal ideas of male superiority and female inferiority, men are the breadwinners outside and women are the homemakers. Men work outside to earn money, and women take care of the house and cook meals every day waiting for their husbands to come home.
All in all, few men know how to cook these days.
I don't know who got the advantage in the end from this man.
