After finishing her meal and washing up, Ke Meiyu looked at the wooden bed in the room, and then at the man with boundless energy wearing only a shirt with two buttons undone, revealing his strong chest. Her heart suddenly started beating faster.
She climbed into bed, obediently wrapped herself up like a silkworm, and lay down against the wall.
Ying Yan raised an eyebrow at her. "What are you doing? Or are you reminding me of something? The soundproofing in this tenement building is terrible. Are you sticking to the wall so people can hear how loving we are?"
Ke Meiyu reacted as if she had been burned, quickly dodging away and staring at him expectantly.
Ying Yan chuckled and lifted the covers to get into bed, pulling her into his arms and greedily inhaling her delicate fragrance. "I grew up in the army before I went to the countryside. From sixteen to twenty, I worked my way up to the position of regimental commander in four years and even earned the title of the King of Soldiers in the North."
“If my family hadn’t reported me, I might have gone even further,” he said casually, but what man doesn’t want to realize his ambitions?
Ke Meiyu wrapped her arms around his waist and said, "Actually, a man's ambitions don't necessarily have to be realized in the military. Talent is needed in every industry."
Ying Yan ruffled her hair, then rolled over and pinned her beneath him. “Actually, I don’t regret it. Men and women are the same; the years a man can truly dedicate to the military are only a few.”
"I have worked hard and strived, and now I will participate in the country's development with a higher attitude. More importantly, I also have the time and energy to manage our family with you. I'm a bit greedy; I want both the big family and the small family!"
As Ke Meiyu watched him earnestly express his feelings and make promises, although this was an unfamiliar place, her heart warmed. She felt she needed to do something to thank him for waking up and giving her the opportunity to encounter love again.
She couldn't help but tilt her head slightly and kiss his chin.
The man shuddered, his eyes fixed on her fiercely. He gritted his teeth and whispered, "Comrade Ke, do you know what you're doing?"
Ke Meiyu had long since overcome her inner hurdle and resolved to live a good life, not dwelling on the past, but focusing only on the present.
She laughed and kissed the spot where he rolled up and down again. "Light the fire?"
...
Before she even opened her eyes, the man's kisses overwhelmed her again. "Taro, thank you. Thank you for staying by my side and for accepting me back so quickly, even though I lost my memory."
Ke Meiyu was so dizzy from being kissed that she felt dizzy.
The man couldn't help but ask her quietly if she had enjoyed herself last night and if she had any suggestions for improvement.
The question was asked in a serious tone, but the content involved the most intimate things between the two of them. Even though Ke Meiyu was not a child in this regard, she and the boss had never discussed this aspect.
Her face flushed red, and she buried her face in his chest, muttering, "You filthy scoundrel!"
The reveille had already sounded, and Ying Yan looked at the shy beauty, never before had he hated getting up so much.
"I'm going for my morning exercise first, I'll bring you breakfast later," Ying Yan said, giving his wife a big kiss before getting up and getting dressed.
After everyone left, Ke Meiyu cast a cleansing talisman, feeling refreshed and the room was spotless.
Then she couldn't help but sit down and stare blankly.
Every time I'm with this big shot, it's like we're really fighting, incredibly intense. But never before has it been as natural as last night, where we got together because of our mutual affection.
The feeling of being cherished and held in his palm moved her deeply, and her heart was completely at ease.
Not long after, Zheng Qianqian arrived with Xiao Tuanzi, carrying a basket containing steamed buns, rice porridge, three salted duck eggs, and two small dishes of pickled vegetables.
“The men have finished their morning exercises, and I don’t know what tasks they have left. Instead of waiting for them, let’s get our own food and have a hot meal,” Zheng Qianqian said with a smile as she laid out the dishes.
Before the August morning heat had even set in, they set up a table outside, and the two children and three adults chatted and laughed as they ate.
Ke Meiyu had just eaten some hamburgers and pizza to satisfy her cravings, so she wasn't very hungry right now. After eating five steamed buns, she started gulping down her porridge.
"Oh, Sister Lu, having breakfast? Are these the new sisters-in-law?" A group of women carrying vegetable baskets walked over and greeted them with smiles.
Ke Meiyu and Duan Jingyi stood up and smiled, and Zheng Qianqian gave them a brief introduction.
"Although the two sisters-in-law will only be staying in the military camp for a short time, it will still be a month or so, right? There are stoves in the houses, so it's still good to keep some food at home. Why don't we go to the market together?"
Zheng Qianqian said softly, "It was organized by the military and the local mountain people. They divided up a piece of land, and we can buy agricultural products at the price that the supply and marketing cooperative buys. The profit is not high, but it saves the trouble of the supply and marketing cooperative purchasing, and it benefits both parties. There is no suspicion of speculation."
“Our unit has a large area, and there aren’t too many military dependents accompanying the troops. Each family can be allocated a plot of land to grow some grain, cotton, and vegetables, and can also raise a couple of chickens and ducks. However, for things like meat, fruit, and mountain products, we still need to go to the market.”
"Of course, there are also families who don't like farming..."
Ke Meiyu and Duan Jingyi just arrived, and they didn't bring much food or supplies from home, so they definitely need to go and replenish their supplies.
So they tidied themselves up a bit and followed.
The military wives talked about their husbands and children all the time. Some of them, having given birth to two or three boys in a row, stood up straight and held their chins higher than others.
“Sister Lu, if you ask me, you two shouldn’t always be so focused on your work. It’s too lonely for Yuehai to have only one child.”
"Having more children makes life more lively; that's what life is all about. You're all so busy, just dumping Yuehai at anyone's house. You never saw how pitiful the child looked. Even if he had a companion, things wouldn't be like this..."
