Lu Cheng gave Lu Haici a bath, wiped his body casually, and carried him back to the room. However, the moment he opened the door, the cleanliness of the room made his eyes move slightly. But it seemed that with the drying clothes in the yard as a cushion, the cleanliness inside was not so surprising.
Lu Cheng put Lu Haici on the bed, and brought him some clean clothes, putting them on him in a few seconds. It has been almost a year since he brought Lu Haici to the army, so he is very familiar with taking care of the little guy and dressing him. "Play on the bed by yourself." As he said, he picked up a training suit on the bed. He was going to put it on the small bed. He didn't remember when he put the clothes on the bed. Was it the clothes he hurriedly changed before going on a mission half a month ago? Or were they the clothes that were thrown on the bed in a hurry when she returned to her aunt's house from the army a month and a half ago?
"Dad, these are the clothes that Mom will wear to sleep, don't move them." Lu Haici said hurriedly.
Uh... Lu Cheng didn't know whether to take them or put them down. Lin Qingqing wore his clothes to sleep? Thinking of the girl's passionate pursuit of him when they just met, and the condition she proposed to marry him later, Lu Cheng thought it was entirely possible that she wore his clothes to sleep to remind him of him.
Lu Cheng was a little embarrassed, and what was even more embarrassing was the scent coming from the clothes. He didn't notice it when Lu Haici didn't remind him. Now that Lu Haici reminded him, he felt that the scent on the clothes was getting stronger and stronger.
"Hmm..." Lu Cheng pretended not to hear his son's words. He calmly put down his clothes and left the room. However, as soon as he left the room, he saw Lin Qingqing coming in. She was holding a washing basin. In the washing basin were her underwear after taking a bath. She was still wearing the same clothes she wore during the day, a white floral shirt and black trousers. Perhaps seeing the lesbian's underwear made Lu Cheng a little embarrassed, "You... have you finished your bath?"
Lin Qingqing was also a little embarrassed. She was only in her twenties before she was transmigrated. Of course, she would be embarrassed to be seen in her underwear by a man. "Well, okay, you can go wash."
Lu Cheng hurriedly said, "I'll be right there." Then he ran out as if he was running away.
"Ah..." Lin Qingqing also sighed. "Living together" with a strange man was more uncomfortable than she thought.
In the room, Lu Haici was lying obediently, waiting for his mother to tell him a bedtime story. He heard some noise at the door, so he turned his head and said, "Mom, you're here." He said loudly. The voice was so loud that even Lu Cheng, who was drinking boiled water outside, could hear it.
"I'm here." Lin replied softly.
"Mom, just now Dad wanted to take away the clothes you wear to sleep." Lu Haici told a little story, trying to get his mother to praise him more. "But I told Dad that this is the clothes Mom wears to sleep." He also pointed to the military green training suit on the bed.
Puff... Lu Cheng, who was drinking boiled water outside, was choked.
Lin Qingqing's legs went weak and she almost fainted.
Speaking of the fact that she wore Lu Cheng's training suit to take a shower last night, it was not her fault but the original owner's. The original owner stayed at home for half a month without a single clean piece of clothing. She really couldn't bring herself to take the original owner's pajamas that hadn't been washed for half a month, so she took Lu Cheng's training suit. Moreover, Lu Cheng's training suit was a short cotton T-shirt, which was very suitable for pajamas. Besides, her body was only 163 cm tall, and Lu Cheng was about 183 cm tall. This T-shirt just reached her thighs, and this length was even more suitable for pajamas.
Lin Qingqing was just looking for convenience last night, and she didn't expect Lu Cheng to come back so soon. When she took clothes before taking a shower today, she only took her spare underwear, and she didn't think about this piece of clothing. Now it's too late to destroy the body. Besides, she washed the original owner's pajamas in the afternoon and they are not dry yet. She has no pajamas to wear now, and she has to wear Lu Cheng's training clothes at night, so...
Lin Qingqing really wants to cover Lu Haici's mouth with a Band-Aid.
"Mom...what's wrong with you?" Seeing her mother looking at her with a very strange look, Lu Haici asked innocently.
Lin Qingqing said: "It's okay, you go to bed first, I'll go out for a while."
"Hey." Lu Haici lay down obediently, and lay straight, "I'll wait for mom to sleep together."
Lin Qingqing wanted to say: Thank you, don't wait.
Lin walked out of the room quietly, and saw Lu Cheng standing in the yard with his back to the hall. She walked over awkwardly: "Lu Cheng..." Because she was nervous and a little embarrassed, her voice was lower and softer than usual.
Lu Cheng's ears moved. It was the first time he heard her call his name since he came back from the mission. Unlike the righteous voice before, this time the voice seemed a little coquettish. Lu Cheng subconsciously took another sip of water, and the water gurgled down, and his sexy Adam's apple slid with it. "Hmm?" Lu Cheng turned around.
"Well..." Lin Qingqing looked at him, her face a little red, "I have been sick for half a month, so there are not enough clothes to change at home, so I used your training clothes as pajamas, sorry." "
It's okay. You can continue to wear this clothes. I have several training clothes. If you want new ones, you can." Lu Cheng said. After thinking for a while, Lu Cheng said again, his tone was very serious, "We are husband and wife, and there is no need for husband and wife to feel embarrassed about such things."
"Well." Lin Qingqing smiled, what else could she say? She traveled through the book after replying to the fans' message. She only replied with four words: looking forward to traveling through the book, but the result... As for the original owner, she had a vague feeling that she might have died of the fever that day. But what about herself? Can she go back?
Lin Qingqing's mind was in a mess, and she couldn't figure out the reason at all.
"What's wrong?" Lu Cheng asked when he saw her frown.
"No, no." Lin Qingqing said hurriedly, "Then I'll go tell Haici a bedtime story." After saying that, she went in as if escaping.
Lu Cheng thought to himself that she was really very different from before marriage. Before marriage, she was always rushing forward, but after marriage, she became reserved. However, Lu Cheng did not think much about it. Tomorrow he had to make up for the things that were missing in the house, and he also had to buy the materials for the small house that Lin Qingqing wanted to improve, so he had to write the task report for this mission tonight. Thinking
of this, Lu Cheng stopped turning the soil and followed into the house.
Lin Qingqing had just climbed onto the bed when Lu Haici lay obediently in her arms, listening to her telling a bedtime story.
Lin Qingqing's bedtime story is "Journey to the West". "Journey to the West" is very long, very impressive, and very easy to tell. "Once upon a time, there was a stone, it suddenly broke, and a monkey jumped out of the stone..."
Lu Cheng pushed open the door and heard this sentence.
Lin Qingqing's voice of telling the story suddenly stopped, looking at Lu Cheng standing at the door.
Lu Haici also looked at his father and asked naively: "Dad, are you here to listen to mom's bedtime story too?"
Lu Cheng ignored his son's words. He looked at Lin Qingqing and said: "I'm going to take a shower and go to the army to work later. I may be back late at night. You don't have to wait for me."
Lin Qingqing, who had no intention of waiting for him, immediately gave him a brilliant smile after hearing this, and encouraged him: "Work is important, you don't have to worry about us." That was great. She was embarrassed that they would sleep in the same bed together. Although she planned to let Lu Haici sleep in the middle, it was still a bit awkward. Now it's okay. Maybe when Lu Cheng comes back, she will have fallen asleep.
Lu Cheng raised his eyebrows. Did he hear it wrong? Why did he hear that she was relieved? "Yeah." Lu Cheng didn't think much about it. He nodded and went to the small bed to take out his own clothes.
After Lu Cheng took a shower, he didn't go into the room again, but went directly to the army.
In the room, Lin Qingqing didn't know when the story ended. The big and the small were sleeping soundly with their heads close together. However, Lin Qingqing did not sleep well. She seemed to have returned to the modern times, to the home where she and her grandmother
lived alone. Strangely, there were many wreaths at the gate of the family compound, and there were many people inside, which was very lively. Lin Qingqing walked in curiously, and she saw an acquaintance coming towards her. It was an old sister of her grandmother when she was alive. Lin Qingqing called out: "Grandma Qi..."
But Grandma Qi walked past her and ignored her.
Lin Qingqing frowned. What was going on? She continued to walk forward. Then, she met many acquaintances one after another, including her grandparents, her aunt, and even her sister, but like Grandma Qi, no one paid attention to her.
Lin Qingqing had a bad feeling. The wreaths were placed at the door of her house, and these people appeared in her house again. Could it be that... her father or her mother passed away?
Although Lin Qingqing had a weak relationship with her parents, they were her biological parents after all. When she thought that one of her parents might have passed away, she hurried into the house. As a result, she saw her mother lying next to a coffin and crying.
Lin Qingqing's eyes suddenly turned red. It was her father who passed away.
"Wife, go eat something first. Qingqing's spirit in heaven doesn't want to see you like this." As a result, before Lin Qingqing could go over, she heard her father's voice from the side, and then she saw her father walking over with a sad face.
What did she...she hear? Her father said Qingqing's spirit in heaven... What does Qingqing's spirit in heaven mean?
Lin Qingqing ran over suddenly... She was dumbfounded looking at the girl lying in the coffin. The girl looked exactly like her. How could she have mistaken that face that she had seen for more than 20 years? More importantly, she was wearing a white dress that she liked very much. The dress was made of miumiu and she spent more than 20,000 yuan on it.
No, no, no, Lin Qingqing shook her head. She must be dreaming. How could she be dead... How could it be possible...
Suddenly, Lin Qingqing opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling in a daze... Until she felt a warm feeling in her arms, she came back to her senses and lowered her eyes to look at Lu Haici lying in her arms. She... was dreaming. Lin Qingqing hugged Lu Haici tightly. Only the warm and soft touch from the baby in her arms made her feel a little bit real.
Why did she have such a dream? Was she...really dead? For some reason, she had a vague feeling that she was really dead and could not go back.
Alas... Lin Qingqing sighed long and quietly. Her parents had a shallow fate, so let them die. They gave birth to her, and the millions of savings she left behind could be regarded as their retirement money, a repayment for the kindness of giving birth. I hope that with her sister, they won't be too sad.
Lin Qingqing hugged Lu Haici tighter.
"Mom..." Perhaps Lin Qingqing hugged him too tightly, making Lu Haici feel a little uncomfortable, he opened his eyes drowsily. But when he saw his mother hugging him, Lu Haici closed his eyes happily again.
Lu Cheng worked until very late, and when he finished his work, he looked at his watch, it was already one o'clock in the morning, he quickly sealed the documents, and then locked them in the drawer, then stretched his limbs and walked towards the family yard. Before reaching the
door of the house, Lu Cheng saw the lights in the house from a distance, the dim lights seemed to shine into his heart, making the somewhat cool night become warm.
Lu Cheng's parents were childhood sweethearts, and the two families were old friends, but Lu Cheng knew from a young age that his parents were not harmonious. For example, my mother loves my father very much, but my father doesn’t love my mother. He even doesn’t come home for many years because of work. Later, my father came back and told my mother that he wanted a divorce because he fell in love with someone else.
My mother is not a weak person. She could insist on waiting when my father didn’t love her because my father didn’t have a lover. But now that my father told her that he had a lover, my mother didn’t want to insist. When he was still young, my mother said, “I don’t want to love a man who loves another woman in his heart. This is unfair to me.”
The only two conditions that my mother agreed to my father’s divorce were to take Lu Cheng away and all of my father’s current property. And my father may have agreed to my mother because he felt guilty.
However, not long after my mother divorced my father, my mother fell ill. At this time, my grandparents had passed away. Although my uncle and aunt were still alive, my mother entrusted him to my aunt.
My aunt was a strong and opinionated woman. She and my uncle were a rare free love in that era. Of course, because of the mismatch in social status, they did not get the recognition and blessing of my grandparents. According to my aunt, when she got married, only my mother sent her off. However, even if only my mother sent her off, it was enough for her to gain a firm foothold in her husband's family.
When Lu Cheng was entrusted to my aunt by my mother, he was welcomed by her aunt's family. Indeed, Lu Cheng lived a good life in my aunt's house during the years he was at her. My aunt loved him as her own son, and my uncle was also an honest man. As for his maternal uncle's relatives, they were even more polite to him because of the inheritance left by his mother.
However, Lu Chengshi always felt that he was a homeless person after his mother's death.
In 1956, Lu Cheng graduated from the military academy and went directly to the army to report. College students like him who graduated from the military academy had military status and had to report to the army. After arriving at the army, he started as a deputy battalion commander. Two years later, in 1958, he was promoted to battalion commander because of his great achievements. Another three years later, in 1961, he was promoted to deputy regiment commander.
Lu Cheng worked very hard when he was on a mission, because there was nothing in the world worth remembering, so he dedicated his whole life to the motherland. Later, with Lu Haici, he became more cautious when going on missions because he had someone to worry about. But even so, he never had a home in his heart. And no one had ever left a light on for him.
Until this moment, he walked to the front of the yard and saw the dim yellow light in the hall.
Before he took a shower and left, it was not dark yet, so the lights in the hall were not turned on, so the lights at this time could only be turned on by Lin Qingqing.
Lu Cheng pushed open the door and walked into the hall lightly. Compared with the lights in later generations, the lights of this era were not bright. The light from the bulb was still a little yellow, but it still illuminated Lu Cheng's heart. When he walked to the door of the room, his movements were even lighter. He pushed open the door, and the room was dark, but with the light from the living room, he could see inside.
Lu Cheng turned on the light gently, not because he wanted to wake up the mother and son who were already asleep on the bed, but if he didn't turn on the light and went in in the dark, if the people inside woke up, they would be scared to death.
However, the moment the light was turned on, the scene on the bed became clear at a glance. Two people who were not related by blood and had only known each other for less than a month were sleeping in each other's arms. The younger one lay in the older one's arms, ruffling his hair. The older one hugged the younger one tightly, burying his face in the younger one's hair.
What hit Lu Cheng's heart even more was that Lin Qingqing was still wearing his training suit at this moment.
Lu Cheng's heart was suddenly filled. This was a scene that he would never have thought of half a month ago. Even half a month ago, when Lu Haici asked him: Dad, is the stepmother my mother? He didn't dare to answer no, for fear of hurting the child. But now, he is extremely glad that he answered firmly at that time.
Looking at the way they embraced each other, who could say they were not mother and son?
Lu Cheng really didn't expect that this girl, who had been rejected by him but still forced him to marry her with such conditions, would be so good to Lu Haici. At this moment, he thought of his mother again. His mother told him when he was young that the greatest sorrow of a woman is to fall in love with a man who doesn't like her. So, does Lin Qingqing also feel sad that she falls in love with herself who doesn't like her?
His mother also told him when he was young that a woman can like a man who doesn't like her, but she absolutely cannot like a man who has another woman in his heart, because that would be unfair to herself.
That's why his mother agreed to divorce at that time. And she rationally proposed the most favorable conditions for herself, children and wealth.
At this moment, Lu Cheng didn't want Lin Qingqing to feel sad. He thought that maybe they could give it a try. Maybe marriage wasn't as bad as he imagined.
He turned off the lights in the living room first, then came to the bed. There was also a switch on the wall beside the bed. After he lay down, he stretched out his long hand and turned it off. Listening to the even breathing of the two people beside him, Lu Cheng fell asleep quickly.
The next day
Huh...
Lin Qingqing opened her eyes at the sound of the wake-up call, and she yawned. The wake-up call of the army sounded at 6:30 every day. She didn't expect to sleep until 6:30 today. You know, she woke up before 6 o'clock yesterday. Lin Qingqing raised her head and looked to one side, she breathed a sigh of relief. Although there were traces of sleep on that side, it was empty now, and Lu Cheng had already gotten up.
That was great, it avoided embarrassment.
Lin Qingqing didn't know yet, but Lu Cheng had decided to live a good life with her at this moment.
Lin Qingqing got up carefully to avoid waking up the silly little baby. She changed her clothes and walked out of the room. In order to save time, she was going to wash up while making breakfast, so she went to the kitchen first.
For breakfast, she was going to make wheat rolls and sweet potato porridge. Wheat rolls and sweet potato porridge are Ninghai's specialties. In fact, she decided to make wheat rolls and sweet potato porridge because she didn't have enough dough to make vegetable dumplings.
So, Lin Qingqing first lit the stove of the iron pot, and when the fire was burning, she added water to the iron pot, then she took out two sweet potatoes, peeled them, cut them into small pieces, and put them into the iron pot. After that, she washed half a bowl of rice and poured it into the iron pot.
In fact, sweet potato porridge is made of sweet potatoes and glutinous rice. The porridge cooked in this way has a sticky texture, but there is no glutinous rice at home, so she can only use ordinary rice.
The sweet potato porridge is not cooked so quickly, and Lin Qingqing went to wash up while waiting. After washing up, she drank a cup of warm water, applied some face cream, and then went to make wheat rolls.
The ingredients for the rolls are dough, potato shreds, cucumber shreds, and egg shreds. Lin Qingqing first made the dough left over from yesterday into thin pancakes. The day before yesterday, she found a dough stick at home, which was probably left by Aunt Lu Cheng. Then she washed the potatoes, cut them into shreds, and fried them in a clay pot. After
frying the potato shreds, she used the flat bottom of the clay pot to make an egg pancake, and then cut the egg pancake into shreds. Finally, she used the flat bottom of the clay pot to make the pancakes.
In fact, the flat bottom of the clay pot is quite easy to use, because the clay pot will not stick to the bottom due to its material.
Lin Qingqing made the pancakes, put potato shreds, egg shreds and cucumber shreds in the pancakes, rolled them up and cut them in two. She made five pancakes in total, and after cutting them open, there were ten wheat rolls. However, her wheat rolls were not as big as the Ninghai wheat rolls of later generations, because they were limited by the size of the flat bottom of the earthenware pot.
Just after she cut ten wheat rolls, a voice came from the door: "Do you need my help?"
Hearing Lu Cheng's voice, Lin Qingqing turned around: "No, it's time to eat, go wake Haici up." Her expenses are now all Lu Cheng's, so she naturally has to be diligent. Moreover, she also likes to make things. More importantly, because she likes food, Lin Qingqing doesn't like to have people around her when she is making food. In the past, when she and her grandmother cooked food live, they also divided the work and cooperated.
"Okay." In fact, Lu Cheng didn't know how to get along with Lin Qingqing. Although he wanted to try to live a good life with her, he didn't know where to start for a while.
Lu Cheng went to wake Lu Haici up, and Lin Qingqing also brought the prepared wheat rolls into the living room.
Huh? Lin Qingqing felt something was wrong. Suddenly, she remembered that she only washed clothes yesterday, and there should be changed sheets and quilts in the corner of the living room. "Lu Cheng, where are the sheets and quilt covers I put in the corner?"
Lu Cheng was picking up Lu Haici. When he heard her words, his ears turned red and he said nervously, "I washed them." He has been independent since he was a child. From the time he was 18 years old and attending military school to now, he has washed his own clothes, sheets and quilt covers, so he has no idea of leaving housework to women. In fact, he felt very ashamed that Lin Qingqing had been sick for half a month and survived. Besides, since he decided to give it a try, he naturally had to show his performance. When
Lin Qingqing heard it, she was immediately happy and said, "Really? Thank you so much." Oh my God, he actually washed the sheets and quilt covers, isn't that too good? However, she was also worried that the man didn't wash clothes cleanly, so she went out to check, and the result... her face also turned red. She stared blankly at her underwear exposed to the sun among the sheets and quilt covers... so conspicuous. Oh, there were also Lu Cheng's vest and underwear next to them.
Boom, boom, boom... Lin Qingqing felt her heart beating very fast, as if it was about to jump out of her body. If someone asked her what it felt like when a member of the opposite sex gave her underwear for the first time, she would definitely say, I want to crawl into a hole in the ground.
Lin Qingqing blushed and walked into the kitchen with a blank mind. As for whether the sheets and quilt covers were washed, she no longer wanted to check. She didn't even want to check whether her underwear was washed.
Lin Qingqing thought that she probably wouldn't wear the underwear washed by Lu Cheng, because just thinking about it made her feel hot all over.
"Mom... I'm coming..." Lu Haici jumped into the kitchen, "Mom, I got up late today and didn't do housework. I'll wash the dishes later." The little guy is very good at expressing himself.
Lin Qingqing came back to her senses and gave him an admiring look: "Haici is so good, then I'll leave the dishes to you later." Her eyes unexpectedly met Lu Cheng, and her heartbeat accelerated when she met his eyes, and she immediately retracted her gaze.
"Yeah." Lu Haici responded loudly. Then he looked at his father who was following him. He felt that his father was so lazy that he would not take the initiative to help his mother. No wonder his mother did not even look at him. He walked to his mother and continued to praise, "Mom, you are so great. I can already smell the fragrant cakes on the table. They must be delicious." He would not be as stupid as his father.
Lin gently rubbed his head: "Then you should eat more later. I have sweet potato porridge here. It's ready. You should have a bowl later."
"Yeah, I will definitely eat more. I will eat more than my father." Lu Haici promised. He thought to himself, this way my mother will know that he likes her more than my father.
Eating more of her food is a sign that he likes her. This is what the little guy came up with.
Lu Cheng stepped forward and picked him up from behind: "Want to eat more than me? Wait another 20 years." This bastard is only five years old, and he dares to say something that implies him. Does he think he doesn't understand? He has been living under someone else's fence since he was a child. If he can't even understand this, he might as well call this bastard dad.
