Chapter 227 I'm talking about not missing any water, how about you try it?
Lin Wanxia took the initiative to talk about a lot of interesting things outside, and also emphasized the praises of them in the newspapers and by ordinary people.
At least during this meal, the sighs gradually decreased.
But, she knew it would get worse.
After dinner, the officers and soldiers were particularly conscious of washing the dishes and taking away the garbage when they left.
Jiang Sinian took the initiative to let them pack up Xingxing and leave.
"They all have single beds, will it disturb them if you move Xingxing over?"
"No. They have big dormitories, and it's warmer if they squeeze together. It's inconvenient for Xingxing to be here."
Before the last word fell, Lin Wanxia was held in Jiang Sinian's arms.
After a lot of trouble, she just fetched water and simply washed it.
Lin Wanxia, who had no strength left, closed her eyes and laughed at Jiang Sinian: "Didn't you say there is no shortage of fresh water on the island?"
"You heard me wrong." Jiang Sinian, who had just finished cleaning up and lay on the bed, said calmly, "I said there is no shortage of fresh water. How about you try it?"
Lin Wanxia turned over and faced Jiang Sinian to prevent him from succeeding, "You bastard, you wish!"
Jiang Sinian came from behind, "It feels better when you do it!"
Lin Wanxia was so angry that she sobered up a little, bent her elbows and pushed back hard, "Jiang Sinian, are you still a human being? You train and move stones during the day, and it's endless at night." You
have great physical strength.
Jiang Sinian sighed: "Actually, moving stones is not our job."
The country has units responsible for construction, and it is their job to build houses.
"We do all this just to find something to do. Otherwise, the days on the island will be too long."
Therefore, being able to sleep with my wife in my arms at night is a particularly happy thing.
I have to cherish my blessings. "
Lin Wanxia rolled her eyes when she heard it. The first half of her words were reasonable, but the second half was pure nonsense.
However, Lin Wanxia thought of what happened at the dinner table in the evening and did not argue with Jiang Sinian.
"Then can you stop moving stones? Do something else. For example, read a book, play football... In short, do something you like."
Jiang Sinian sighed again: "Where is the field for playing football? There are some books, but not many people can read. Moreover, most of the officers and soldiers who come to the island are relatively young and energetic. If they have rest time after training, they are likely to fight. "
On the battlefield, they will block bullets for each other without hesitation and are each other's strongest backs.
However, in daily fights, they will also swing their fists at each other without mercy.
Young people who are full of hot blood are particularly easy to get angry.
The reasons for quarrels are varied. There are few one-on-one fights, and they often end up in group fights.
For example, if you accidentally say "You people in x province and x place are so and so!" you will annoy all the soldiers in x province and they will be attacked together.
When the fellow villagers of the young man who speaks ill of others see that their fellow villagers are bullied, they will also come over.
Well, a group fight started.
For example, "Your company is not good enough, but our company is so and so much better than you!" "The mobile red flag should have belonged to our class. Who in your class didn't wash his stinky socks for three days and hid them in the closet? How dare he take the mobile red flag?"
Such things are just one sentence that annoys a group of people and causes a group fight.
They will definitely be punished.
And they will be punished collectively.
However, they did not change after being punished.
Later, the leaders of the group thought that they might stop making trouble after their energy was exhausted.
So they let them do the work that the workers were supposed to do, either cutting down trees or digging stones every day.
"Don't say it, leaders are leaders. They are pretty good." Jiang Sinian praised, "There are indeed fewer group fights recently. "
Lin Wanxia gradually lost her sleepiness as she listened, and sat up and leaned against the head of the bed. "But the officers and soldiers are busy from the moment they open their eyes to the moment they close their eyes, their lives are boring, and they live a relatively poor life with no entertainment and are isolated from the world. They are likely to have psychological problems over time."
"No." Jiang Sinian shook his head. "I believe in their willpower. We have all received torture training."
"But not all officers and soldiers receive that kind of training. Even if they do, it has nothing to do with psychological problems. They can choose not to betray their country under any circumstances, but they will betray themselves. "You don't know..." Lin Wanxia explained to Jiang Sinian the seriousness of the psychological problem in detail.
During this time, Jiang Sinian sat up, got out of bed to add charcoal, then returned to bed, leaned against the head of the bed like Lin Wanxia, and put his arm around her shoulders and leaned on his own shoulders.
The head of the bed was cold, which was not friendly to Lin Wanxia.
After listening to Lin Wanxia's words, Jiang Sinian also realized the seriousness of the problem and said, "I will mention this when I go to the Youth League meeting at the weekend. But..."
He lowered his head and looked at Lin Wanxia, who was yawning with her eyes closed, "How do you know all this? "
Lin Wanxia did not reply.
She fell asleep.
***
The next day, Lin Wanxia did not continue to work on her greenhouse, but asked Jiang Sinian to arrange a dinner party.
It was an outdoor hot pot.
Several people sat together, put up a rack, hung the iron pot on it, and lit firewood underneath, which not only could make a fire but also kept warm.
Green vegetables could not be kept for a long time, so all the dry and crisp vegetables were taken out for everyone to eat.
Lin Wanxia looked at the crowd of people, shook her head and said to Jiang Sinian: "You'd better not get promoted in the future!"
"Why?" Jiang Sinian wondered, "Don't most people hope that their men will get promoted and make a fortune? Why is it the other way around for you?"
Lin Wanxia asked him faintly: "Then have you made a fortune? "
Jiang Sinian: "..."
Who can he compare his score with?
Compared with Lin Wanxia and his ex-fiancée who has now become a wealthy woman, he really doesn't have much money.
But among ordinary people, his income is not low.
Now his allowance is over one hundred yuan a month, and there are extra bonuses for meritorious service.
Now that he is stationed on the island, he still has some subsidies.
It's nearly two hundred yuan a month!
But, 200 yuan is not enough for Lin Wanxia's living expenses for a month.
"But I will spend money." Lin Wanxia pretended to be unhappy, "When you were the captain, there were only a dozen people in the team, and there were not even dozens of people in the brigade. But, you are the battalion commander now, and you have..."
Jiang Sinian added honestly: "More than 300 people."
"So, can it cost the same to treat 20 people to a meal as to treat 300 people to a meal?"
Jiang Sinian didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "No one would treat like this in the first place. According to what you said, if I become a general one day, do you plan to treat all the officers and soldiers in the country to a meal?"
Lin Wanxia thought about it and said, "It's not impossible if that day really comes!"
Jiang Sinian: "..."
Suddenly felt that he, a big boss, was not as broad-minded as his wife. He
reflected deeply on himself.
Of course, Lin Wanxia was not really complaining about spending too much money.
She was willing to treat them to a meal.
They deserved it.
During the meal, they drank and boasted.
Xingxing shuttled among the officers and soldiers, passing a piece of paper after each pot.
Jiang Sinian was curious: "What is that?"
