Zhao left the camp as soon as it got dark. When he got home and saw his two children rushing towards him and his wife smiling at him, his resolute and handsome face instantly became extremely gentle.
Fan Hua chuckled and said, "You're back. Get ready to wash your hands and eat!" Then she turned and went to the kitchen.
Zhao Yilu handed the two children to Aunt Chu and went to the yard to wash his hands and face. When he came back to the house, tempting food was already on the table.
After Fan Youcheng left, as there was still plenty of time, Fan Hua fried the leftover spinach from yesterday with the meat sauce brought from Beijing, and made a few pancakes, and topped them with fried eggs, sour and crispy radishes, and vegetable porridge. Although the meal was light, it was also hearty.
Zhao ate happily all the way and felt that his life was so happy that it was about to overflow. This was what people always meant by a wife, children, and a warm bed!
While eating, Fan Hua told Zhao Yilu about consulting about houses and preparing for the Lantern Festival party program. After listening to Fan Hua, Zhao Yilu shared with her some interesting things about training new recruits today. The atmosphere in the room was particularly harmonious. Even Aunt Chu couldn't help but sigh that this young couple was so well-matched and they looked harmonious in every way!
…
The next day, not long after Zhao Yilu went to the camp, Fan Youcheng arrived. Fan Hua asked in surprise, "Brother, what time did you leave the house?"
Fan Youcheng smiled and scratched his head: "I don't know what time it is. I started riding towards the military compound when it was light and I could see the road clearly."
Fan Hua then remembered that Fan Youcheng didn't have a watch. It seemed that she had to give him a watch later, otherwise it would be too inconvenient.
"You haven't had breakfast yet, right? It just so happens that I brought back a lot of food from the cafeteria. You can eat some, and I'll go cook a few eggs on the fire." After saying that, Fan Hua went to the kitchen.
Fan Youcheng didn't hesitate and just found a seat to sit down. After Fan Hua came out of the kitchen, the brother and sister started eating together.
Fan Youcheng finished his meal quickly and went to work in the yard. Fan Hua looked at Fan Youcheng busy outside the door. He was still wearing the clothes that Zhao Yilu gave him when he was in Beijing, which were still a bit loose. So Fan Hua moved the sewing machine to the yard and started working.
Three hours passed in a blink of an eye. Fan Youcheng had built the wall much higher. Fan Hua also used the leftover men's fabric at home to make a piece of men's clothing for Fan Youcheng.
"Brother, come here and wash your hands and face, and try this dress to see if it fits you."
Upon hearing this, Fan Youcheng looked up in surprise. It turned out that his little sister was making clothes for him just now!
He immediately put down the brick in his hand, washed his hands and face thoroughly, and changed into the clothes that Fan Huaxin had made for him.
Because Fan Hua used to draw human models frequently, she is extremely sensitive to the proportions of things. She can tell a person's approximate shoulder width, waist circumference and other data with just a glance, and the clothes she makes are also extremely fit. After Fan Youcheng put on this tailor-made suit, his whole temperament is completely different!
It was the first time for him to wear this kind of woolen clothes. They looked very expensive. Plus, my sister's craftsmanship was really better than those made by the tailor in the county. Hey, when did my sister acquire such good craftsmanship?
Fan Youcheng looked up in confusion, "Sister, I remember you couldn't even sew clothes properly before, how come you can use a sewing machine to make clothes now? And you do it so well!"
Fan Hua said without blushing, "Brother, people always have to make progress! Do you think you could use a camera before? Could you ride a bicycle? Could you build such a high wall in such a short time?"
Fan Youcheng immediately shook his head...
"You didn't know anything, but now, in just a few days, you know everything, right?"
Fan Youcheng nodded frantically again...
"So, people always change. You can change so much in just a few days. Besides, you haven't seen me for a year and a half, so it's normal for me to change!"
Fan Youcheng felt that what Fan Hua said made sense, and he swore secretly in his heart that he would work hard and make a name for himself in Yangcheng. When he returned home to see his group of friends and the people from the Fan family, he would make them look at him with new eyes!
It was almost half past nine when the two of them got dressed and packed their bags. The Military Family Courtyard was much closer to Yangcheng University than the staff building on Wusi Road. It would only take about fifteen minutes to get there by bike. Fan Hua took the passbook and asked Fan Youcheng to take him out.
Fan Youcheng's cycling skills were much better today than yesterday. He brought Fan Hua steadily to the textile factory dormitory building next to Yangcheng University.
Before long, the two saw a middle-aged woman in a blue work suit walking towards them...
The middle-aged woman approached and asked, "Are you the ones who want to buy this house?"
Fan Hua nodded immediately and asked with a smile, "You are Mrs. Ji's daughter, Comrade Wu Chunhua, right?"
The middle-aged woman nodded immediately.
"Then please take us inside first. If there are no problems, we will go and complete the relevant procedures today."
Of course Wu Chunhua had no objection. She took out the key from her pocket, unlocked the door and slowly pushed open the door.
The large furniture in the room is still there, and it can be seen that someone lived there not long ago.
"My mother had a bad heart and passed away suddenly. She loved cleanliness and kept the house very tidy. It's not convenient for me to move these furniture away. If you want them, keep them. If you don't want them, get rid of them!"
When Wu Chunhua walked into the room again, she thought of her mother's lonely life. As she spoke, she couldn't help but tear up.
Fan Hua followed Wu Chunhua and looked at the house carefully. The house was much larger than the staff dormitory on Wusi Road, about 100 square meters, with a large living room and two bedrooms. In addition, there was a separate small dining room and a small kitchen. Although it was on the first floor, there was no obstruction in front and it looked very bright.
Fan Hua took a look around and felt very satisfied. The size of this studio was more than enough for Fan Youcheng to use as a photo studio temporarily, and there was even a place to live!
Fan Youcheng, who was walking beside Fan Hua, also thought the house was very nice, but when he thought about the death of someone in it, he couldn't help but feel a chill on his back.
He looked around nervously, then asked, "Comrade Wu, may I ask which bedroom your mother lived in?"
Wu Chunhua was stunned for a moment, then honestly pointed to the room near the door.
"That room is where my mother lived before she passed away, and the other room is where I occasionally stay when I go back to my mother's house."
Fan Youcheng nodded and secretly made up his mind that he would never live in that room again!
