Chapter 69: Follow the army?
Seeing that the old lady's eyes were not right, Jiang Anan suddenly became a little nervous.
There couldn't be something wrong with the house.
But the more Jiang Anan thought about it, the more she felt it was hard to say. After all, it was such a good house at a bargain price, and there was no telling what the problem might be.
Thinking of this, she took a breath.
Is it possible that there is a problem with the lighting in this house?
She instinctively tightened her grip on Xu Wangjing's hand.
Xu Wangjing felt a little confused when he noticed something strange about the woman next to him.
Before Xu Wangjing could ask what was going on, he heard her ask, "Madam, what happened to the house?"
The old lady frowned and hesitated to speak.
Seeing the old lady like this, Jiang Anan felt even more uneasy.
Unexpectedly, the next moment, I heard the old lady sighing, "How did you get that yard? I just found out today that they moved out, and you actually rented it?"
The old lady didn't expect that Jiang Anan was more informed than her.
Now Jiang Anan also understood, it seemed that there was nothing wrong with the house.
"My man rented it. He just happened to get it."
Jiang Anan smiled and glanced at Xu Wangjing out of the corner of her eye, but she didn't expect to be caught.
Their eyes met, and Jiang Anan quickly looked away.
However, I had more doubts about him in my heart. Did he really rent this yard by coincidence?
The old lady was curious and asked, "I remember he said he would never rent out this house no matter what. Why is he renting it to you now?"
Confuse.
She couldn't understand how Xiao Jiang's man convinced that family.
"Maybe he changed his mind again..."
Jiang Anan made a guess.
But she also felt something strange in her heart.
"Maybe." The old lady responded, and then sighed: "Their family has lived here for a long time. It seems that they moved away because they followed the army."
Follow the army?
Jiang Anan didn't take it seriously. She chatted with the old lady for a few more words before taking Xu Wangjing to buy groceries.
Buying vegetables was quite quick. After all, the prices of everything were fixed at that time and there was no chance to bargain. Naturally, no time was wasted. After ten minutes or so, I went back with a bag full of vegetables.
I bought some daily necessities on the way, after all, there were many things missing in the hospital.
When they were almost home, Xu Wangjing suddenly asked, "Do you know what it means to accompany the army?"
Trying.
Jiang Anan paused, wondering if it was her illusion, why did she feel that his tone was a little cautious?
"I know. I'll just follow the soldiers and live in the family compound!"
What doesn't she understand? She hasn't experienced that era, so has she not read enough literature about that era?
"What do you think of following the army?"
Xu Wangjing asked casually.
Hearing this, Jiang Anan turned around and looked up at him, "Why are you asking me this suddenly?"
keen.
Xu Wangjing was always on missions, so it was no problem for him to cover up at this time. However, when he met her eyes, he couldn't say a word. He had to turn his head away and whispered, "I asked when I thought of it."
Jiang Anan found it ridiculous after hearing this.
Do you think she is a fool?
Although she didn't have much contact with Xu Wangjing, she knew that he was not the kind of person who would chat about trivial matters. There must be a reason why he asked so many questions out of the blue.
Considering that he was transferred here recently, she suddenly understood.
"Are you going to be transferred back and are you afraid that I won't go with you?"
She felt this was the most likely possibility.
But Xu Wangjing was stunned after hearing this, as if this was actually okay?
He couldn't reveal his identity at the moment, but if she thought so, it made sense, so he nodded slightly, "Yeah."
He was worried that she would not want to go with him. After all, she was married to him and was still in Hecheng, close to her family. If he wanted to leave after completing his mission...
"I follow you wherever you go, I'll go there too!"
Jiang Anan didn't care where she lived. Opportunities were everywhere in this day and age. She just hoped to sell the things in the warehouse as soon as possible to make money and accumulate funds. Then she could do business and buy a house. It was hard to imagine how happy she would be in the second half of her life.
Xu Wangjing looked back at her, and when he saw that she didn't seem to be joking, there was a hint of emotion in his eyes.
"good."
His voice seemed a little choked.
Jiang Anan was a little confused, "You cried?"
"No."
Xu Wangjing, who was originally still moved, immediately returned to his noble and cold appearance.
How could he, a seven-foot-tall man, cry?
The two returned to the yard and found that the old lady had come and was chatting happily with Jiang's mother.
"Hey, Xiao Jiang is back. I got some homemade sausages. You guys can try them later. I have to go back to cook first!"
After the old lady finished speaking, she left quickly, and Jiang Anan didn't even have time to ask her to take the sausage back.
But it’s okay. At worst, I can just see if there’s anything useful in the space warehouse next time and bring it to the old lady.
"Mom, why were you chatting so happily with others just now?"
Jiang Anan gave all the dishes in her hand to Xu Wangjing and asked him to take them to the kitchen first. She then walked to Jiang's mother curiously.
"I got along well with Sister Chen, so I said a few more words."
Li Cuifen's face was more smiling.
Seeing that she was finally happy, Jiang Anan's mood also improved a lot.
After a while, Jiang Anan wanted to go to the kitchen, but her mother didn't give her the chance to enter the kitchen and drove everyone out.
Jiang Anan knew Jiang's mother's habits. She could also see that she was not comfortable living here and always wanted to do something, so she didn't say anything and just went along with her.
After dark, the meal was ready and the whole family gathered around the big table in the yard to eat.
The basic furniture was left by the previous owner, including this big table.
During the meal, Li Cuifen picked up dishes for her daughter and son-in-law more than a dozen times, and kept nagging them to eat more.
The others also left the meat for the two of them.
Jiang Anan knew that they were embarrassed to eat, so she thought about finding some work for them, otherwise, based on the personalities of this family, no one would dare to eat for free.
I don't know when the market will open...
On the other side, Sihe Village, the village chief’s home.
"Why haven't you cooked yet?"
When Liu Quanxing returned home, he saw Zhao Chunmei sitting there without cooking, and his stupid son was sitting on the kang eating candy.
When Zhao Chunmei saw that the person who came in was Liu Quanxing, she immediately sighed.
"What do you mean? I'm back from a day of meetings, and you're not happy to see me, right?"
Liu Quanxing was already hungry and in a bad mood, so he threw the notebook he used to write meeting minutes onto the kang.
The silly son was so scared that he dropped the candy onto the kang and started crying loudly.
"Look how scared you are to your son!"
Zhao Chunmei stood up and frowned.
"I'm going to cook now, okay?!"
I went to the kitchen angrily, but felt very annoyed.
It was already dark, why didn't Jiang Anan come to beg her yet? Could it be that she really planned to sleep on the street with her whole family? !
