In other words, they can go to the battlefield together, leave their backs to each other, and become people who trust each other.

But if they were asked to ask Lu Huaijin for things like tomatoes, they would feel embarrassed.

I can imagine that cold face saying to me calmly: "Practice?"

It gives me goosebumps just thinking about it.

They looked at each other with complicated eyes.

No wonder Lu Tuan came back a few days ago and wanted to practice with Zhang Liang. These were all compensations. He thought that he had eaten their compensation.

Officer Zhao, who had just grabbed the tomato, felt a little embarrassed.

He took out some biscuits from his secret stash and stuffed them into Zhang Liang's pockets, saying:

"I'm sorry for what happened, brother. I didn't know this was going on. Can't I clean your room for a week?"

Zhang Liang glanced at him:

"Two weeks."

"make a deal."

Suddenly, Xiao Zhao's nose moved.

Only when he got closer did he smell the strong scent of meat on Zhang Liang's body.

I was so busy grabbing tomatoes that I didn't notice the smell.

"What did you eat?"

Zhang Liang raised his head proudly:

"Pig's trotters, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, fried pork with rapeseed, hot and sour cucumbers..."

"I don't know how many hours the pig's trotters were stewed. They were so soft and boneless that they melted in your mouth. When you take a bite, the aroma of the meat immediately fills your mouth."

"That little rapeseed has fresh garlic in it. When you bite it, it's really crispy with a hint of strong garlic flavor. Just thinking about it makes me hungry again."

I don’t know whether the food Xu Niannian cooked was delicious, or whether the gloomy winter background added brightness to the meal.

All in all, he enjoyed the meal very much.

The other officers were drooling at the thought of the pickles they had eaten in the evening.

Fortunately, Xiao Zhao was smart and asked:

"Where did Lu Huaijin get it from? It's been a while since he came back from his mission. He can't have brought it back from somewhere else."

"His wife, he grew it himself."

I also asked Xu Niannian if I could tell anyone about this during lunch, and she didn't mind at all.

When someone asked, Zhang Liang naturally answered, which made his brother proud.

The other officers could no longer bear it:

"You mean, those were actually grown by Lu Huaijin's wife?"

"That's not right. I heard that his wife is pretty, fair-skinned, and has a scholarly temperament. How could she farm?"

"That's right, the comic strip incident has spread to us. She can also draw, but it doesn't seem to have anything to do with farming."

"I can testify that I have seen his wife. She is very pretty and definitely doesn't look like someone who would farm."

Zhang Liang scratched his ears. Seeing that they were as surprised as he was, he felt relieved.

He cleared his throat.

"A person has many sides. It was indeed created by her. I knew this from the beginning."

"How much did you plant? I can do some hard labor for her in exchange for some tomatoes and cucumbers to eat."

It is indeed boring to eat pickles from the cafeteria every day.

"Yes, I want to eat too."

"No, how come my wife is so pretty, can knit, draw, and even farm? Is there anything she can't do?"

Zhang Liang suddenly felt proud of himself. He had enough of pretending and waved his hands at them:

"You can just ask Lu Huaijin about these things. My wife gave me some tomatoes, but you guys snatched them away. I have to take a nap."

In the afternoon, when Lu Huaijin was in class, he felt something strange. The atmosphere was not right.

Why are so many people staring at me, with such hungry eyes?

He felt uncomfortable and touched his face.

Zhang Liang, who was not far away, was very leisurely.

He walked over quickly:

"Did anything happen at noon?"

Zhang Liang glanced at it:

"It's okay. I just praised my sister-in-law for you."

Lu Huaijin curled his lips:

"My wife is naturally amazing."

Zhang Liang moved his lips, but the words he wanted to say were stuck in his throat. Looking at his expression, his teeth almost fell out.

Forget it, I'd better stay away from him and wait for him to be jealous of others.

Sure enough, some people of higher levels found Lu Huaijin when they were not busy.

Walk up to him and cough a few times:

"I heard that your wife can grow vegetables in this winter?"

Lu Huaijin nodded modestly:

"She was just joking. She's pregnant now, and the baby in her belly needs nutrition. Eating Chinese cabbage and pickles every day is meaningless."

With this said, the person on the other side felt embarrassed to ask others to give him some vegetables.

It would not sound good if word got out that you were snatching food from a pregnant woman's mouth.

It’s not that Lu Huaijin is stingy. Once this matter is brought up, everyone in the military camp is full of brotherhood. In the middle of winter, who doesn’t like fresh vegetables?

He has no right to dispose of the things that his wife has worked hard to get, and even if he does, he would like to leave them for her to eat.

Don’t let yourself lose out if you can’t even finish a few bites.

After Lu Huaijin said this, no one dared to ask him for vegetables, but they all gathered around him and talked about his wife.

I heard him clench his fists gradually.

I never knew that his wife had attracted so much attention.

That’s not all. Someone that day took some thought. Since they couldn’t get the food from the Lu Group, they went to the cafeteria and made suggestions to the chef.

What the advice says:

“It is recommended to increase the variety of dishes in winter so that everyone can enjoy their meals.”

When the chef saw the suggestion, he got angry. In the autumn, he prepared a lot of dried mushrooms, dried beans, and dried bamboo shoots to enrich the dishes in winter.

This is how we used to eat it.

I don’t know what happened these past two days, but these suggestions suddenly popped up.

He scratched the few hairs on his head and asked someone, only to find out that Lu Tuan's family grew some fresh vegetables.

The chef was well-informed, so he didn't find this strange. He had heard in other places before that things could be grown out of season.

But those are all in the research institute, and there has been no news about them in recent years.

Lu Tuan’s wife is also quite familiar with him. Usually, for Lu Tuan’s sake, every time she comes to reserve meat, it is done properly.

He was busy until nine o'clock in the morning and didn't even have time to eat. He changed his clothes and planned to go to Xu Niannian's house.

Xu Niannian has been making bedding at home with Sister Li these two days, and she also heard her say that her vegetables seemed to have caused quite a stir outside.
