Chapter 499: Era - The Original Wife Squeezed Away by Her Childhood Sweetheart 13
Chang Yuhua didn't care at all. She had never expected to succeed in her selection as the team leader.
The troops stationed nearby must be Yu Chenglong and his troops.
Even if I didn’t know him personally, I had met him at the family quarters even if he was at the level of a regimental commander.
When they meet, people will know that she was once Yu Chenglong's wife, and the matter will naturally fall through.
As for the cook, she never considered meeting him.
Because when she thought of the chefs of this era, she thought of Sha Zhu.
Chang Yuhua said, "It's okay, Aunt Guo. I was scared by the war a few years ago. I feel safe when I find a soldier.
Besides, what's there to be afraid of about a second marriage? Didn't you say his ex-wife died and they had no children? If no one says anything, it's no different from a first marriage. I don't care about that."
Aunt Guo tried to persuade them a few more times, but seeing that Chang Yuhua was quite determined, she stopped talking and went home to contact the two of them to arrange a meeting time.
After Chang Yuhua sent Aunt Guo away, she immediately forgot about the blind date.
He turned and went into the kitchen to cut and marinate the meat, and began to prepare the ingredients for the stall the next day.
Unexpectedly, a few days later, when Chang Yuhua was busy grilling skewers for customers in front of the stall, a familiar figure appeared in front of her.
Chang Yuhua didn't see the person coming, and the person didn't disturb her. Instead, he followed the other diners to choose ten skewers of vegetables.
The vegetable skewers here at Chang Yuhua are made in the same way as in later generations of Malatang, where customers can choose their own vegetables.
After you’ve made your selection, just give it to her and let her bake it directly.
The man handed Chang Yuhua ten skewers of vegetables and said, "Give me five more skewers of lamb."
She habitually responded, "Okay, wait a moment."
When I looked up to take the vegetable skewers, I found that the person coming was Fu Wenshan.
Today he was not wearing a military uniform, but a pair of black pants with a white shirt, which gave him a scholarly look.
Chang Yuhua immediately showed a surprised smile.
"Brother Fu, what brings you here? I'll give you the skewers first, and the dishes will be ready soon."
Fu Wenshan was not wearing a military uniform today, and it was not known whether he was on a mission. Chang Yuhua did not dare to mention his occupation in her address.
Fu Wenshan also smiled, revealing a row of big white teeth.
"I'm taking a break today and going into town to do some work."
As he said this, he took out two cents to give to Chang Yuhua. Chang Yuhua refused to take it, so he walked directly to the side of the barbecue grill and stuffed the money into the purse tied around Chang Yuhua's waist.
This stunned Chang Yuhua, but she didn't think much about it.
Fu Wenshan was holding a skewer of meat and standing not far away, watching Chang Yuhua busying herself while eating the skewers.
After eating, he rolled up his sleeves and walked to Chang Yuhua.
"Take a break first, I'll help you bake. You're so busy you're sweating."
Chang Yuhua didn't feel comfortable asking for help, so she quickly refused.
"No, Brother Fu, I'm used to it. The barbecue smells strong, so don't let your clothes smell like barbecue."
But Fu Wenshan didn't listen to her at all. He pushed Chang Yuhua aside and started grilling by himself.
You know what, it looks pretty good when baked.
At first, Chang Yuhua kept an eye on him to make sure he didn't add too much seasoning. After watching for a while, she found that he was doing it just like he had done before and there was no problem at all.
At this time, someone else came over with some vegetables to grill. Fu Wenshan took them directly and said to Chang Yuhua, "You're responsible for collecting the money."
So, the following scene appeared at Chang Yuhua's barbecue stall: a man in a white shirt and with an elegant temperament stood upright behind the barbecue grill and grilled skewers.
A woman wearing a worn floral shirt was in charge of collecting money.
Fu Wenshan didn't get to eat any of the vegetarian skewers he ordered. After they were grilled, they were all sold to other customers.
The day's stall business is not completely over until the sun sets.
Chang Yuhua felt a little guilty. She had asked Fu Wenshan to take care of his own business several times before, but he always said there was no rush.
Looking at the time now, I’m afraid it’s too late to do anything.
So he said apologetically: "Captain Fu, I am really sorry to trouble you today.
You said you had something to do in the city, but ended up grilling skewers here all afternoon. Did I disturb your work?
It’s probably too late to go now, so how about I treat you to a meal?”
Fu Wenshan pushed Chang Yuhua's bicycle, and the two walked towards Nanshan Village together.
The setting sun stretched the shadows of the two people very long.
Fu Wenshan chuckled softly.
"Nothing has been delayed. I've been busy with work all afternoon."
Chang Yuhua didn't react at first.
"Barbecue is nothing serious, aren't you..."
At this point, Chang Yuhua was stunned, and suddenly remembered that before she set up the stall this morning, Aunt Guo told her that someone would come to the stall to meet her.
His eyes widened instantly: "Are you the leader that Aunt Guo mentioned?"
Fu Wenshan turned his head and looked at Chang Yuhua.
"Why can't it be me? I'm the widower captain whose wife died."
Chang Yuhua blurted out, "But you've never been married, have you?"
As soon as she said that, she felt that she was being too talkative.
I thought that Fu Wenshan was probably the same as me, just looking for an excuse to postpone the blind date, so he said that.
Who knew Fu Wenshan would continue, "The last time I went to the city, I overheard your village head and his wife saying they were going to Jimin Pharmacy to inquire about a young doctor and would like to introduce you to one.
I thought it was a coincidence, but when I followed them to your stall, I realized it was really you.
I asked my friends for help and added me to the people you are going to have a blind date with.
As a result, the village chief and his wife in your village always thought that I was too well-off and suspected that I wanted to find a helpless girl to serve as a maid.
I had no choice but to tell them that my wife had died. After I said that, they actually felt relieved.
Speaking of this, Fu Wenshan also looked helpless.
Chang Yuhua laughed out loud at his expression.
This really seems like something the village chief and Aunt Guo would do.
They like to live a down-to-earth life. When good things fall from the sky, their first reaction is to suspect that it is a trap.
Chang Yuhua also keenly realized that Fu Wenshan had taken the initiative to join the blind date team with her.
She wasn't so narcissistic as to think she was loved by everyone, so she asked Fu Wenshan, "Captain Fu, you also know about my past with Yu Chenglong, do you mind?"
Fu Wenshan turned around and looked at Chang Yuhua seriously.
"What's there to worry about? I know your situation very well.
You are a good girl, and I just want to find someone to live a stable life with.
I know you inside and out, which is much better than those girls from the art troupe that others introduced to me before.
I am a soldier and often cannot take care of my family. What I want is not beautiful flowers to grow at home, but comrades who can fight alongside me.
Of course, I'm not saying that I don't care about family matters at all.
Sometimes we really are unable to do anything, in which case our partner has to take more responsibility for household chores.
But as long as I am at home, I will definitely do whatever I can.
I hope you can consider me. I think I have many advantages.
You already know my family situation and income, so I won’t introduce them one by one.
I hope you will seriously consider me and elevate our revolutionary friendship."
