He Xiangdong has a rich imagination.
Just a shirt already represents skin-to-skin contact.
Jiang Jun frowned. "That's too much! It's because it's raining, you know! Don't people in the barracks borrow clothes from each other?"
He Xiangdong shook his head: "The nature is different."
Jiang Jun was amused. "You little brat, you even know how to talk about nature! Fine, I'll wear it. What if others find out?"
"Others will think you two are a family!" He Xiangdong put his palms down and touched his index fingers together: "I heard Aunt Zhao and the others say this when they were chatting. If a woman wears men's clothes, then they are indistinguishable from each other."
Jiang Yun was silent. If she continued to reason like this, if she told others that she had kissed Chen Yuanwu, wouldn't she be the one who offered herself voluntarily?
What kind of world is this!
"Then we are a family, isn't that okay?"
"Of course! But if you talk to other men again, people will gossip about you!"
"Spicy talk? I'm just being polite!"
"It's true! That's not a nice thing to say!"
"Okay, okay, if I'm wearing your shirt, can I still talk to other men? Will anyone still gossip about me?"
"Ah? Wear mine? Then it's fine."
Jiang Jun chuckled again. After all this time, it was just the audience imagining things, loving to identify with the characters: "This is all made up!"
"You're still laughing? I've told you everything I've heard. That's all I've heard. My mom doesn't usually let me hear it."
He Xiangdong pouted. Originally, they were both young girls in love, longing for handsome men. Now Xiaojun was listless and had a boyfriend. She had risked everything for Xiaojun, even talking about gossip topics that only married women would talk about. Why didn't Xiaojun appreciate it?
Jiang Jun agreed: "Aunt Bai is right! You really can't listen!"
The rich imagination of the Chinese people can expand the topic of food, sex, and love infinitely, depicting infinite possibilities that even the parties involved can't imagine. Jiang Jun didn't want to talk about this topic anymore: "Xiangdong, go to sleep. You have a mission with Team 2 tomorrow morning!"
He Xiangdong was also tired, his eyelids began to droop: "Well, you are injured, so you don't have to do morning exercises, just tidy up your room."
No one in the communications company checked on their positions, and after the heavy rain, the temperature dropped sharply at night. Their quilts were not thick enough, so they squeezed into one bed and covered themselves with two quilts.
In order to consider He Xiangdong's feelings, Jiang Jun changed back into his own shirt, and the two of them finally had a peaceful and warm sleep.
When Jiang Yun woke up in the morning, he felt refreshed.
The soldiers in Class 2 also felt refreshed.
Not only did they seize the first opportunity to take Jiang Jun and He Xiangdong on a mission together, they also discovered comedic talents that they themselves had not discovered.
Jiang Jun's left ankle was still bandaged, so he couldn't walk fast and naturally sat in the driver's seat.
He Xiangdong waved his hand and declined the offer to squeeze into the cab together: "I can just chat with them in the back."
During the free time after breakfast, Jiang Jun cleansed He Xiangdong of the feudal ideas in his mind. Now he was no longer as shy when talking to the male soldiers. What's more, sitting together and chatting were those two funny guys who only cared about digging and filling the soil and ignored the tree trunks.
Jiang Jun nodded: "By the way, let's see if anyone has hand cramps today."
It was the first time that car soldier Luo Xiangnan had seen such an unrestrained female soldier. The last time the propaganda team came to the company for a performance, some of them were carsick. The level of the performance was not as good as the party they had last night.
Hearing Jiang Jun's joke, he calmed down. "I was really afraid she'd get in here! She's heading east, and I'm heading south. How do you think we're going to drive this car?"
Jiang Yun was delighted: "So you usually drive south?"
Luo Xiangnan tapped his fingers on the steering wheel: "Yes, I always drive south, south left, south right, and south back."
East, south, west, north, and south are all south, front, back, left, and right!
Jiang Jun rubbed his face, unable to smile anymore, his face was sore: "Are there many tasks today?"
She heard that today's task was to inspect the lines, so why was the whole class mobilized?
Luo Xiangnan gripped the steering wheel tightly, stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, stared straight ahead, glanced at the compass from time to time, and said nothing.
Jiang Jun stopped talking, supporting himself on the edge of the seat with one hand and holding the door handle with the other.
She really wasn't used to sitting in the cab without a seat belt.
The most unfamiliar thing was that when she was driving, her hands were placed in the left ten and right three positions, while Luo Xiangnan held the bottom of the steering wheel tightly with his palms facing up, as if he was holding a washbasin.
It looked awkward, but she couldn't say anything, so she had to turn her head and look at the scenery outside.
After the heavy rain, the autumn grass grew rapidly, and the telephone poles erected by the communications company seemed to be growing in the grass.
The wires laid in those days were all for military purposes, and there were no civilian telephone lines on the prairie.
Herders will carefully avoid it when grazing.
After walking for a while, Jiang Yun, knowing full well that he couldn't speak, still couldn't help asking, "Why don't we see a single cow or sheep?"
Luo Xiangnan swallowed his saliva and quickly replied, "This is not a pastoral area."
They often inspect the lines on this road. When cars pass by, the smell of diesel is quite strong, and even wild animals will avoid it.
"Where are all the pastoral areas? The grass here is growing well, so why are there no herders?"
"We're almost at the border. Another half hour's walk will take us to Outer Mongolia."
"Then it's easy to sneak across the border here? You can hide in the grass and no one will notice you."
"Outer Mongolia is even poorer than us. Who would go there? It's a good thing they didn't come here. You see, we've been walking for so long and haven't seen many trees or a single living person. If the border defense company wants to visit us, they can't do it without a car."
"Is the border defense company far from here?"
"It's not far. Just walk for another hour and a half and you'll see the path where they're on duty."
In this vast grassland, the soldiers used time to describe distance, just like scientists use light years to describe the distance between planets.
"After reaching the border defense company, it's another hour's walk to your new recruits' camp. Do you still recognize this road?"
“…”
"We walk this road so often that we know each other well. You see, there's grass everywhere. It's all the same, right?"
"yes!"
"I'm telling you, even if you had a compass and relied on your skinny legs, you wouldn't be able to run to the border defense company or back to the recruit camp! The animals on the road will hide when they smell the diesel and our cars. If you run out with a backpack on your back, they'll smell your meat and chase you!"
Luo Xiangnan glanced at Jiang Jun again. He always felt that this female soldier wanted to cross the prairie alone.
