Jianshu was so tired that he slept very soundly. When he was awakened by the wake-up call the next day, he was shocked.
"It's okay, it's the wake-up call. It's still early, you can sleep a little longer." Gu Mingjing quickly patted her back to comfort her and covered her ears with his other hand. Looking at Jianshu, who was dazed and open-eyed in his arms, he couldn't help but feel distressed and loving.
Jianshu hadn't actually fully woken up yet. When he heard the familiar voice and felt the gentle comfort, he slowly fell asleep again.
Gu Mingjing kept moving his hands and continued to pat the person in his arms gently until he was sure that the person in his arms was asleep. Then he slowly let her go, lifted the quilt and got out of bed.
His long-established biological clock had kept him awake for a long time. He hadn't gotten up earlier because he was worried she would be frightened. Now, it was time to get up and train.
He still has two days of vacation left and doesn't need to return to the team for the time being, but he can't fall behind in training. He still remembers that Jianshu said he had gained weight.
After exercising, Gu Mingjing heated up the rice porridge and buns that he hadn't finished eating yesterday, then borrowed a shovel from next door and went to the backyard to plow the soil.
When Jianshu woke up again, it was already half past eight. He sat on the bed for a while before gradually regaining consciousness.
I looked around and didn't see anyone, so I lifted the quilt and prepared to get out of bed. The next second, I felt a familiar soreness.
"Beast!" Jian Shu cursed inwardly before slowly getting out of bed.
When she was putting on her clothes, she looked at the red marks on her body, her face flushed, and she cursed again, "You bastard! You're really like a dog!"
After leaving the room, I didn't find anyone in the living room. I searched everywhere and finally found him in the backyard.
"Shushu, you're awake!" Gu Mingjing heard the noise and looked up in surprise.
Looking at the sweat on his head, Jian Shu lost all his anger. "How long have you been doing this? Your hair is wet, why don't you wipe it off quickly? If you catch a cold, you'll be miserable!"
"It's okay, just wait until I finish turning the last bit of land." After saying that, Gu Mingjing quickened his movements.
Jianshu stretched out his hand and wanted to speak, but in the end he didn't say anything.
Five minutes later, when Gu Mingjing had finished turning the last small piece of land, Jian Shu hurried over to wipe his sweat. "Look at you, you're sweating so much so early in the morning. You're bound to catch a cold if the wind blows. Go take a shower and change clothes later, otherwise you'll have to wait on me if you catch a cold."
"It's okay, I'm in good health and won't catch a cold. Didn't you say yesterday that you wanted to buy some vegetable seeds? I prepared the land early, you can plant it whenever you want." Gu Mingjing listened to her complaints with a smile, and then replied.
"Hmph! You're just relying on your youth and good health. If you don't take good care of yourself now, you'll regret it when you're old!" Jian Shu snorted and spoke very rudely, but the movements of his hands were as gentle as possible.
"Isn't it just growing vegetables? Why rush? Just take your time. Why do you have to finish it all at once? If you can't grow it, then you can't grow it. At worst, you can just buy some vegetables first. We don't need that little money."
"Youth is the capital of revolution. If you don't take good care of yourself, when you're in your seventies or eighties, all kinds of illnesses will come up, and the pain will kill you."
"Be careful next time, okay? Nothing is more important than your health!"
Gu Mingjing listened to her mumbling with a smile, looking at her with tenderness and indulgence in his eyes, "Okay, I'll do as you say."
"Humph! Just because you say something, you have to do it, you know?"
"Okay." Gu Mingjing touched her head, "Are you hungry? Let's go eat."
"Wait, I haven't washed up yet!" Jianshu broke free and ran to wash up.
After washing my face, brushing my teeth, and combing my hair, I walked to the dining table. On it were two bowls of rice porridge, a plate of steamed buns, and a plate of salted duck eggs.
Gu Mingjing handed her the chopsticks and said, "Eat first. After you finish eating, I will take you to the supply and marketing cooperative. After you buy something, you can walk around the area and get familiar with the environment."
He will be back in the team tomorrow, so he has to put his books away quickly, otherwise he won't have time when he gets busy.
"Okay." Upon hearing that, Jianshu quickened his eating pace.
After dinner, the two packed up and prepared to go out.
"Captain Gu, this is your wife, right? What's going on? Are you planning to go out?" A loud female voice sounded behind the two of them.
Gu Mingjing saw the person coming and nodded and greeted her, "Sister-in-law Zhao."
Then he introduced her to Jianshu: "Shushu, this is Sister Zhao. She lives near us, not far away."
"Sister-in-law, this is my wife, Jian Shu."
Jian Shu greeted with a smile, "Hello, sister-in-law!"
"Oh, hello, hello, Captain Gu is so lucky to have found such a beautiful wife!" Sister Zhao slapped her thigh and laughed.
"Thank you for the compliment, sister-in-law."
"Award or not, I'm speaking from the heart. You're truly a cultured person. You speak differently from us. I haven't read many books, so you just say whatever you want. Don't be polite with us." Mrs. Zhao waved her hands repeatedly.
"In that case, thank you for the compliment, sister-in-law." Jian Shu didn't hesitate and changed his words to express his gratitude.
"Oh, that's right!" The smile on Mrs. Zhao's face deepened a little, and her impression of Jianshu improved a lot.
I heard that Captain Gu’s girlfriend is from Beijing. I originally thought she was the type who looked down on others with her eyes wide open, but I didn’t expect her to be quite easy to get along with.
I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It's good to get along well with each other. After all, the two families are close to each other and we will inevitably have dealings in the future. If someone difficult comes, it will be really annoying.
"Sister-in-law, is there something you need?" Jian Shu looked at the plate in Sister-in-law Zhao's hand and had some guesses in his mind.
"Ah? It's okay, it's okay! I just heard that you moved in and came to see me. I was planning to come yesterday, but the door was closed, so I thought you were not at home, so I went back." Mrs. Zhao collected her thoughts and explained the reason.
Jian Shu was a little embarrassed. "I was a little carsick yesterday, so I fell asleep right after arriving. Maybe I slept too deeply. I'm really sorry to have made you go on a wasted trip."
She never thought that someone would come to her house yesterday.
"Are you feeling carsick? Are you feeling better now? Carsickness is very uncomfortable. You need to rest more. I didn't say hello to you before I came. Don't take it to heart." Mrs. Zhao asked with concern.
Jian Shu said, "It's okay. Thank you for your concern, sister-in-law. I've rested for a night and I'm fine now."
"That's good. You are going out now, right? Then I won't disturb you for now. I happened to have some pancakes at home. I thought you just moved in and haven't started cooking yet, so I sent a few over to you. They are not expensive, so don't despise them." Mrs. Zhao handed over the plate in her hand.
