Gao Shengmei greeted everyone enthusiastically and left with Yue Peng, leaving Jiang Jun blushing. She secretly glared at Chen Yuanwu, feigned composure, cleared the dishes, and went to the kitchen to help Sister Liu.
Chen Yuanwu thought Jiang Yun's shy and angry look was extremely beautiful. No matter how he looked at her, she was particularly charming. He wanted to stay by her side all the time, but unfortunately he had to go out immediately: "Yun, I have to send Fei to do some work. I won't be back before noon. You don't have to wait for me to eat!"
Jiang Jun was washing dishes, his face half-turned to the side, his gaze slanting from the corner of his eye: "Then be careful on the road!"
Just with this coquettish glance, Chen Yuanwu's heart began to beat uncontrollably again. The joy in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows could not be suppressed. The whole person suddenly became energetic, and it was obvious that he was a person in love.
Chen Yuefei took the opportunity to say, "Brother, you don't need to send me off. I can drive, I can go by myself."
During his three years in the border defense company, Chen Yuefei managed to learn how to ride a horse and drive a large truck. He also drove a jeep twice, which was very easy.
Chen Yuanwu immediately refused: "I'll take you there. I have comrades there!"
In the 1970s, cars represented status and position, and jeeps were a symbol of military might. Furthermore, the military was highly disciplined, with designated personnel and vehicles used exclusively. Anyone caught using a jeep for personal use would be subject to disciplinary action or dismissal.
Chen Yuanwu is a very self-disciplined person. Now that he has started to step onto the road to success, his sense of self-control is beyond ordinary people.
What's more, the two brothers belong to different units. If something happens while driving on the road, even if it's just a little paint scratch, both of them will be finished!
Chen Yuefei pointed here and there, trying to buy himself a chance: "Brother, I really can do it! Just stay home with our mom and remind Jing more often. Look at her, her chin was always tilted, but now it's even worse, her nostrils can even be used as chimneys!"
Chen Jing, with her sharp ears, retorted loudly, "Whose chin is pointed? That's temperament, understand? Temperament!"
Chen Yuanwu smiled. His younger brother and sister had always bickered with each other since they were together. It didn't matter who their parents favored, he would just stay out of it. "Let's go, Fei, go quickly and come back quickly."
If he dawdles a little longer, he might want to go into the kitchen to help.
As soon as her two brothers left, Chen Jing ran to the kitchen door and said, "Aunt Liu, my brothers won't be home for lunch, so just make something to eat. Sister Yun, are you free? Can you help me take a look at the song I wrote?"
In the Chen family, the two people who have the most say in household affairs are Ye Qingyin and Chen Jing. Sister Liu smiled and said, "Jiang, lunch is simple, you can go get busy."
Jiang Jun wiped the water droplets off his hands, applied some balm, and calmly followed Chen Jing to the living room and sat down. A thick notebook was spread out on the coffee table, and it was filled with Chen Jing's works.
After being accustomed to the five-line musical notation, Jiang Jun always felt like something was missing when singing the simplified musical notation. He flipped through the notebook with his left hand while habitually "playing the keys" next to it with his right hand.
Chen Jing had something she wanted to say to Jiang Yun in private, but she didn't dare suggest locking herself in her room in front of Ye Qingyin. Seeing this, she suddenly had an idea: "Sister Yun, why don't we go to the art troupe? Let's borrow their piano in the music room."
Jiang Jun was a little hesitant. If she went over and borrowed the grand piano, it might be too conspicuous, and she looked down on the ordinary pedal organ. This was the busiest time for the art troupe, and Jiang Lan might rush over to join in the fun when she saw her - she knew that Chen Jing hated Jiang Lan and did not hide it in front of her.
Although Ye Qingyin didn't like girls whispering in public, she could still be tolerant of Jiang Jun because he could help Chen Jing. "Jiang, you can go with Jing. Jing, do you think Captain Zhang is here? Say hello to him."
Chen Jing thought of what Captain Zhang and their Captain Guo had said about Jiang Yun, and a pang of sourness welled up in her heart, but she quickly suppressed it and said in a negotiating tone, "Sister Yun, let's go. I still have a lot to ask you."
Ever since Jiang Jun moved back into the equipment department's family compound, it's become less convenient for the two sisters-in-law to discuss things on the phone. Chen Jing already has a lot to say to Jiang Jun.
Jiang Jun thought about it, and just to be on the safe side, he asked, "Aunt Ye, do you want to go for a walk with us?"
Ye Qingyin, who loves her son and daughter dearly, has a look on her face that says "I am the only one who can take care of my children, no one else can be bad for my children." Who knows if she will follow her and Chen Jing to the art troupe and watch them teach and learn the whole time?
Ye Qingyin waved her hand: "I'm not feeling well. I'm going upstairs to rest for a while. You two can go."
Ye Qingyin hadn't seen enough of the item she got back from Chi Yitong, so she took the opportunity to play with it slowly while the house was quiet.
…
As Jiang Yun expected, the rehearsal room of the art troupe was bustling with activity and everyone was rehearsing with full concentration.
The art troupe's practice rooms are usually locked. Anyone who wants to use them needs to apply for registration and get a key. However, during these rehearsals, all the doors were opened to facilitate the choir's practice.
It happened that the choir was rehearsing a chorus in the large classroom at that time, the piano rooms were empty, and the only upright piano in the art troupe was unoccupied.
Chen Jing was happy: "Hey, Sister Yun, we are so lucky. We don't have to go to Captain Zhang."
People who are proud and talkative are unwilling to ask others for help, especially those who think they are excellent and superior to others. They always want others to take the initiative to make arrangements for them.
Chen Jing walked into the piano room first, opened the piano lid, placed her music book on the piano stand, and then leaned against the side of the piano: "Sister Yun, don't look at the (song) I wrote yet. Can you play a song first?"
Jiang Jun knew very little about revolutionary songs from the 1960s and 1970s, and since she couldn't sing herself, she casually flipped through Chen Jing's music book and happened to see a song called "Liuyang River".
The notebook contained simple musical notation, and Jiang Jun played it effortlessly, adding improvised chords, turning the song that Chen Jing was used to listening to and talking about her deep love and respect into a lyrical and nostalgic tune.
Jiang Jun himself hadn't expected that the red songs with impromptu accompaniment chords would be so moving, so he played one song after another.
When Jiang Jun remembered to check his watch, it was almost noon. "Jing, how about we go back first and come back this afternoon?"
Chen Jing was so engrossed in listening that she didn't want to say anything to interrupt such a wonderful time. Then she remembered that she hadn't kept her secret yet. "Why don't we take turns going back to eat so that the piano room won't be occupied by others?"
Jiang Jun had no objection: "Okay."
Anyway, I plan to stay here and not move today.
"Daniel!" A familiar voice sounded.
Jiang Jun turned around in disbelief. "Six! Why are you here? When did you join the army? Didn't you go to work in the oil fields?"
