Two days later, it will be Sunday again, and Xia Linsheng should be able to come back.
Yu Suixian got up early, chopped the meat filling, and started making wontons, preparing to eat them together when Xia Linsheng came back.
Around ten o'clock, there was a knock on the door.
Yu Sui thought it was Xia Linsheng, and ran to open the door with a smile on her face.
When I opened the door, it was Han Duomi, carrying a bucket:
"Sister-in-law, I got that ethylene glycol you mentioned. I also told Director Xiao that we need your help to solve the problem with the cooling water tank. That's why he didn't ask Xiao Liu to contact you these days. Hehehe, how do you want to get this thing now?"
It wasn't Xia Linsheng. Yu Sui's mood immediately became a little depressed: "Oh, you put the things here, come and get them in the afternoon, I'll adjust it for you and you can use it."
Han Duomi looked into the room and said, "You want to adjust it? Uh... you can't let me see how you adjust it?"
"No. Teaching an apprentice will starve me to death. I rely on this skill to survive, so the recipe is a secret."
"Oh, you're making it sound so serious. Okay, I'll come this afternoon, and you have to really help me deal with this. I've been telling you all the big stories, saying that Xia Linsheng's sister-in-law is amazing and can make cooling water that won't freeze. You can't embarrass your Xia Linsheng!"
"Oh, what's so embarrassing about this? I'm not afraid. If your entire logistics team can't handle it, it's normal for me to fail. But I'm a man of my word, so don't worry."
"Come on, sister-in-law, let's be serious. This is actually a big deal. If you can really solve it, our entire Northern Transport Corps can save a lot of trouble and money. If we can report you and win a prize or something, hehehe!"
"You're quite good at making promises. You'll have to try it to know if it works. Come this afternoon."
After Han Duomi left, Yu Sui immediately went into the exchange space and bought something to prepare antifreeze.
Of course, antifreeze is made of more than just one ingredient. It also requires propylene glycol and some purified water. But in order to let people know that it is not something that appeared out of thin air, Han Duomi was specially asked to go to the Petroleum Brigade to get ethylene glycol, the most important ingredient, in a big way.
Now, just mix everything according to the proportions.
It only took Yu Sui a dozen minutes to prepare everything.
However, Xia Linsheng did not come back no matter how long he waited. It was past noon and there was still no sign of him.
This really affects my mood.
Qi Wei always felt that he would be back at the next moment, so Yu Sui didn't eat for a long time, wanting to wait for him to come back so that they could eat together while the food was still hot.
Finally, around two o'clock, someone knocked on the door.
Yu Sui pretended to pout as she opened the door, only to find Han Duomi smiling innocently again: "Sister-in-law, I'm here. Is everything ready?"
Yu Sui just wanted to curse.
Xia Linsheng, this guy, doesn’t he consider the feelings of her, the one who is waiting?
But Yu Sui was rational after all. She wouldn't curse. She just turned around and took out the bucket: "You again. Oh, it's ready. You can try leaving it outside overnight. It won't freeze."
"Great!" Han Duomi was still perceptive and happily picked up the bucket, but didn't leave immediately: "What's wrong, sister-in-law? Did I cause you trouble? Why are you so unhappy?"
Yu Sui: "Oh, what else can I do? Isn't it Xia Lin's birthday that he can rest? Normally, he should follow the border defense company's car back for a day, but there is no sign of him now. I'm afraid he won't be able to return for a day. But if he doesn't come back, he doesn't even tell me. Really."
"I don't think it's a big deal! Don't be offended, sister-in-law. There are often emergencies in the company over there. I'll call and ask for you. If I have any news, I'll tell you later."
Unexpectedly, Han Duomi was so righteous. Yu Sui happily put the wontons in a paper bag and gave him some: "Thank you. I'd really like to trouble you to ask for me."
Han Duomi ran away happily after getting the food: "Wait, I'll call for you."
Ten minutes later, Han Duomi came running back:
"Sister-in-law, I called the border defense company. Something unexpected happened. Captain Xia has taken people to deal with it. I don't know when he will be back. I guess he will call you when he returns to the company. Well, sister-in-law, I'm sorry. This is how it is here. Don't blame Captain Xia."
After Han Duomi said this, Yu Sui felt embarrassed: "No, no, it's my fault. I shouldn't have been anxious. Don't worry, he really has something to do. I don't blame him. I just thought I should have called."
"Well, if something happens at the border, they have nowhere to call. Sister-in-law, please bear with me."
"Thanks to you for asking, I now understand everything. I'm sorry to have made you laugh at my country boy's limited knowledge."
"No, no, we all understand. As soldiers, we all hope that our families will understand. I admire your understanding, sister-in-law!"
The two of them complimented each other a few times and laughed.
Han Duomi also praised Yu Sui: "Sister-in-law, you are so generous. Our Captain Xia is so lucky. I will go back to cook wontons now. We eat more dumplings than wontons in the north. I have to go back to try them. If I am late, those guys will steal them away and leave none for me."
"Okay, if you enjoy the meal, when Xia Linsheng comes back someday, let him invite you to come and eat."
"It's a deal then! Let's go!"
As soon as Han Duomi left, Yu Sui closed the door and cooked something to eat, but she couldn't help but worry about Xia Linsheng.
These soldiers have emergencies from time to time, and I don’t know if they are in danger?
Does their job require them to work outdoors? Would it be cold?
It’s already this late, has he eaten yet?
Have those young soldiers, who are only in their teens, eaten anything?
Once a person's heart is invested in a relationship, it is inevitable that he will worry about various things.
That day and night, Yu Sui couldn't eat or sleep well, and she couldn't concentrate on anything she did.
Because she didn't sleep well at night, Yu Sui got up late the next day. She didn't even have time to eat breakfast and hurried to work.
I thought that since Xia Linsheng didn't come back yesterday, he would definitely call the factory that day to report that he was safe. However, Yu Sui listened attentively all day, but the factory's loud announcement did not call Yu Sui to the office to answer the phone.
After waiting for two days, Yu Sui went from worrying about Xia Linsheng, to being angry at Xia Linsheng, and finally to hating herself.
When did it start? Yu Sui is the person who advocates emotional freedom the most. How come she has become like this now?
Xia Lin gave birth to him, a grown man, a soldier, would he not know how to protect himself?
Why should she worry about him at home?
