Chapter 237 Lin Wanxia, if you tell this to anyone again, I will make sure you can't get out of bed for three days!
In the afternoon, Lin Wanxia fiddled with the tin house for a long time.
Of course, she could only do some preparatory work, as she couldn't assemble such a heavy mobile house by herself.
At dinner time in the evening, Jiang Sinian called a few soldiers to come and assemble the tin house for Lin Wanxia.
Lin Wanxia found that these soldiers were really versatile, and it seemed that there was nothing they couldn't do.
Not to mention marching and fighting, which is their job.
But they can farm, raise pigs, chisel stones, pave roads, build houses, paint, etc.
This tin house was assembled without even waiting for Lin Wanxia to introduce it in detail.
Of course, Lin Wanxia would not let them work in vain, since it was not a day off and they still had to go to evening classes.
Lin Wanxia brought some food to each of them, such as biscuits, instant noodles, and fruits. She
also gave each of them a box of cigarettes.
A young man smiled and thanked: "Thank you, sister-in-law! You don't know how hard it is to come to help you. I had to fight our entire platoon to get this opportunity.
" "Me too!"
"I beat our entire class."
"..."
Lin Wanxia looked at the backs of the soldiers walking away and asked Jiang Sinian: "Do they have to fight every time they come to help? Do they come after they lose?"
She reflected deeply on herself, wondering if she had caused too much trouble to everyone since coming to the island and was so disliked.
Jiang Sinian shook his head, "Don't think too much, we can only come here if we win."
Lin Wanxia: "..."
She felt that Jiang Sinian was comforting herself and didn't quite believe it.
Lin Wanxia saw how hard they worked.
No matter if they worked so hard in training or working, they still had to come back to help her. Who wouldn't be happy about it?
Why did they come here after winning?
"Really!" Jiang Sinian emphasized, "Because I'm here to help you, not only can I eat and drink well, but I can also take money with me."
Lin Wanxia: "..."
Jiang Sinian looked at Lin Wanxia deeply, "You come from an era when the country is strong, so you still can't understand the poverty of people now. Just like just now..."
He pointed at the soldiers who were no longer visible, "What you give them is nothing to you, but it is almost their allowance for most of the month."
Conscripts don't have allowances because the conditions here are too harsh, and they will be given some subsidies.
But it's not much money.
The biscuits that Lin Wanxia gave were two yuan a pack, and he didn't know how much the instant noodles were, because they were new things.
Fruits and cigarettes together cost at least five yuan per person.
If they have enough time, they can provide meals. They can't eat as much meat as they want, but it's definitely enough to satisfy their cravings.
This is a great motivation for them.
Lin Wanxia nodded thoughtfully.
As a battalion commander, Jiang Sinian doesn't have to keep an eye on her all the time. In the evening, he helps Lin Wanxia stock the shelves.
As Lin Wanxia said, she really wants to open a small shop here, a cheap shop, just to make things convenient for everyone, not to make money.
The couple chatted while they worked.
Lin Wanxia couldn't see any stars around her, so she asked Jiang Sinian, "Where are the stars?"
"I'm going to play with Tangtang."
Lin Wanxia: “…”
He sighed deeply, "I'm afraid his good intentions may lead to bad results. Tangtang will get beaten up even more."
Jiang Sinian raised his hand and gently rubbed Lin Wanxia's face with his thumb, his smile was gentle but teasing, "So, you know how lucky I am to have a wife like you, and how lucky Xingxing is to have a stepmother like you, right?"
Jiang Sinian's qualifications are not bad. Both his appearance and work salary are very good compared to his peers.
Whether he was in the compound or back in his hometown, there was always a constant stream of people trying to matchmake for him.
After he adopted Xingxing, there were fewer matchmakers, but not too few.
He has never agreed to go on a blind date and won't look at anyone's introduction.
I’m afraid that finding a stepmother would make Xingxing suffer.
By some strange coincidence, I met Lin Wanxia.
Fortunately, it was the current Lin Wanxia.
"You haven't answered the questions I asked you at noon! Why doesn't Instructor Liu want a child? Why is Tan Qiuyun angry with Tangtang?"
"Instructor Liu is afraid that Tan Qiuyun will treat Tangtang worse after she gets pregnant. Tan Qiuyun will bother Tangtang even more. It's a vicious cycle anyway. She came to the island this time just to have a child of her own. Beating Tangtang is also meant to show Instructor Liu."
Lin Wanxia was even more confused, "Why? Since he didn't want Tan Qiuyun to get pregnant, why did Instructor Liu marry her? Tan Qiuyun is the same, making things difficult for a child! Alas!"
Jiang Sinian shook his head, "I'm not very familiar with Instructor Liu. I don't know much about his past."
He became the battalion commander this year. Moreover, Instructor Liu was in the health company, and Jiang Sinian didn't have much time to deal with him.
It's just that I heard a few words from the people chatting below recently.
Lin Wanxia immediately changed the subject, "So you men also gossip?"
Jiang Sinian: "..."
"I didn't expect that you women would also make dirty jokes when chatting."
Lin Wanxia protested: "When did I make dirty jokes?"
"The degree of your chat with Chen Manshu is much more open than dirty jokes." Jiang Sinian said faintly.
When men talk about women together, at most they talk about body shapes and so on. The scale is a bit larger, but not too open.
Jiang Sinian really didn't expect that Lin Wanxia and Chen Manshu could talk so deeply.
They actually discussed the feelings of that thing.
Lin Wanxia became more curious, "Then what do you guys talk about when you get together? Don't you compare whose is thicker, bigger, or lasts longer?"
Jiang Sinian "tsk" and feels very annoyed, "Lin Wanxia, if you tell people this again in the future, I will make sure you can't get out of bed for three days!"
Lin Wanxia: "..."
A man has to bow his head under the eaves.
Since it was dark now, Lin Wanxia had no intention of Jiang Sinian to see if he could keep his word, so challenging she changed the subject and said, "How about I sponsor you to hold a competition?"
"What competition?" Jiang Sinian asked.
"Anything is fine! Play poker, basketball, billiards, whatever. If that doesn't work, we can hold a Xiangyang Island Games, with squads or islands being the units to participate."
"Why do we have to do this?" "
To enrich the spare time of the officers and soldiers! Most of them are young men in their twenties, and they live like ascetics. It's boring to be isolated from the world on the island. Every day is either training or working, and they are depressed."
Jiang Sinian: "..."
"Since you taught them to play poker last time, they are not depressed anymore."
For those who are like Baohuang, they can get addicted to the game even if they don't win money. Five or six people can play at a table from morning to night on their days off.
Of course, there are also disadvantages. If you meet someone who is more serious, you can get tired of playing cards and then fight.
"Not everyone likes playing cards. And they need to have a stake in playing cards! I saw they even used cigarettes as a stake. There are no supplies on the island, and their allowance is limited. This canteen was originally built for them. Organize a competition, everyone will have something to look forward to, and there will be prizes for winning, how great is that?!"
