70s Xiao Que Xing

Chapter 138
"Huh? What do you mean, what's the matter?" Xie Xiaonian asked suspiciously.

"Before I came back, the army said that they would send me to the military academy in the capital to study for a year. You may not be able to join the army until a year later. I refused, but the leader refused, saying that it was a collective discussion of the leaders, and it was also I downloaded the document, so I can only obey. It's not that I didn't tell you, but I didn't find an opportunity yesterday, so I thought I'll tell you today." Xu Zhongjun was afraid that Xie Xiaonian would be unhappy, so he quickly explained.

"Yeah, Xiao Nian, the Zhongjun can't help himself. The house has already been divided. If he is not in the army, you can go to the army to join the army, but the people there are unfamiliar, and the Zhongjun is not in the army. I am afraid of you. I'm not used to it, so I just want you to stay at home for a year, and after his course is over, I will take you to join the army." Mother Xu also helped explain.

"It turned out to be this matter. I thought it was something. It's a good thing! It doesn't matter. It's better to be a year late. The future of the loyal army is the most important thing, and I just married into our village. , stay at home for a year, and you can also take the opportunity to get acquainted with the villagers."

It would be a lie to say that I am not disappointed, but military orders cannot be violated, and Xie Xiaonian also knows that although he only went to study for a year, it will have a great impact on Xu Zhongjun's future future, so he had to suppress the loneliness in his heart and pretended to be calm. .

Seeing that Xie Xiaonian was not dissatisfied, Xu's mother was very satisfied, and felt that Xie Xiaonian was very knowledgeable.

But Xu Zhongjun was aware of Xie Xiaonian's loneliness, but now that everyone was there, he couldn't say anything, so he could only comfort Xie Xiaonian after returning home.

"Then you take the food back. There are 150 catties of corn, 100 catties of miscellaneous grains, 200 catties of sweet potatoes and 100 catties of potatoes. If there are more vegetables at home, I have already packed some in your cellar. If not enough, come again Take it at home. Although there are not many of these things, but Zhongjun is not at home, it is enough for Xiaonian to eat until the beginning of next spring. The 100 catties of potatoes were collected for you by your elder brother and second brother's family. The other food was used before Zhongjun The money sent back was exchanged with the villagers. Our family is also separated, and you will have to figure out your own rations in the future. Now you two have no work points, and you will definitely not get any food in the coming year. Fortunately, Zhongjun If you have a salary, you can exchange the money with the villagers for some food when the time comes, Xiao Nian. The food is stored in the cellar, Lan Huaniang, go and help them send it back." Mother Xu ordered.

"Okay, mother." After finishing speaking, Li Suxin put on her shoes and got off the kang to open the cellar.

"Thank you mother and sister-in-law, then let's go get food." Xie Xiaonian said gratefully.

Xu Zhongjun knew all these things, what Xu's mother said again was actually to Xie Xiaonian, and she wanted her to have a general understanding of the situation.

After Xie Xiaonian expressed her gratitude to Xu's mother and sister-in-law, she planned to send something to the sister-in-law and sister-in-law's house in the future. , the relationship can be imagined for a longer time.

And although I didn't have much contact with her yesterday, Xie Xiaonian felt that her second sister-in-law, Fan Min, was not as easy to get along with as her elder sister-in-law. After giving them potatoes, she might feel very unhappy.

When Xu's mother and Li Suxin saw Xie Xiaonian, they were sincerely grateful and very happy, thinking that Xie Xiaonian is a person who knows how to be grateful.

Although they gave it willingly, I hope Xie Xiaonian can remember their kindness.

And according to Li Suxin's observation, she thinks that Xie Xiaonian is easy to get along with and very straightforward, so she can feel relieved, she doesn't want to have a sister-in-law who is too thoughtful and always wants to take advantage of their family.

After moving all the food back home, Xie Xiaonian stayed at home to pack things. After all, she was just married, and the things in the house were not cleared away, and it was still very messy.

Xie Xiaonian's new home is a traditional house made of stone and earth, but because the house is painted with lime, it is quite bright.

The house faces south, with three main rooms, two side rooms, and a vegetable garden, pig pen and chicken pen. Overall, Xie Xiaonian is very satisfied. She will be able to be the master of the house in the future. She wants to decorate the house It can be arranged in whatever way it is.

When Xie Xiaonian was packing his things, Xu Zhongjun said cautiously while helping, "Daughter-in-law, you are not angry! I am also afraid that I will go to school and you will not adapt to the army, so I want you to join the army after one year , if you are willing to go now, it is also possible, after all, the house has been approved a long time ago."

"You're not here, what am I going to do? I don't know anyone there, so I might as well be at home. I'll wait for you to finish your studies, come back and pick me up!" Xie Xiaonian hugged Xu Zhongjun and said reluctantly.

Originally, Xie Xiaonian wanted to ignore Xu Zhongjun today and treat him well, but knowing that she can't join the army this year, and the two of them will spend less than a month together, Xie Xiaonian is a little bit reluctant, she must cherish the present being with Xu Zhongjun of every minute and every second.

"Well, daughter-in-law, when the time comes, I will definitely pick you up as soon as possible." Xu Zhongjun hugged Xie Xiaonian tightly, wishing to rub her into his body.

After the two hugged for a while, Xie Xiaonian said with a smile: "Let's decorate the house together, I want to make our house tidy and warm."

"Well, okay, let's decorate our house together." Xu Zhongjun especially emphasized the word "our house", thinking that this is the home of the two of them, Xu Zhongjun felt full of happiness, and his happiness was about to overflow .

Because Xu Zhongjun is not at home all year round, there are only a few of his clothes at home, and Xie Xiaonian's books are still in Xie's house and have not been brought over, so there is nothing to clean up except for some of Xie Xiaonian's dowry. The two work together , In less than an hour, I packed everything up.

After tidying up, Xu Zhongjun said mysteriously, "Daughter-in-law, let me show you something nice."

"What?" Xie Xiaonian asked curiously seeing Xu Zhongjun digging around in his army green luggage bag.

"Do you still remember the hemostatic medicine you gave me last time? Doctors in the army have tried it. Although the effect is not as good as what you gave me, it is much better than the previous hemostatic medicine. But this This kind of thing can be regarded as confidential, so the army can't publicly praise you, so they gave me a certificate, 200 yuan, and some tickets in private." Xu Zhongjun handed the things to Xie Xiaonian.

"Really, is there such a good thing?" Xie Xiaonian never thought that there would be any rewards.

"Yeah, I didn't quite believe it at first, but in the end the hospital leader had to give it to me, so I went ahead with it, but don't talk about it if you have nothing to do." Xu Zhongjun knew that these things were rewards, but in fact It is equivalent to a hush money, after all, Xiao Nian is not a soldier in the army, and has no obligation to keep it secret.

"Don't worry, I'm sure I won't tell anyone, what if someone comes to me to borrow money!" Xie Xiaonian said jokingly.

After Xie Xiaonian got the things, he counted the money and the votes, and seeing that there were woolen tickets inside, Xie Xiaonian said happily: "That's great, let's go to the county to buy some wool some other day, and I'll knit sweaters and trousers for you! "

After putting away the money and tickets, Xie Xiaonian picked up the certificate and began to read it.

Although the certificate of merit is very simple, there is a breath of the times everywhere.

After reading it, Xie Xiaonian put it away carefully, and said arrogantly: "I will keep this certificate, if you bully me in the future, I will take the certificate to the commune, I believe there are military certificates, they will definitely will help me."

"Don't worry, this day will definitely not happen!" Xu Zhongjun stroked Xie Xiaonian's head and said gently.

Although everyone does not eat lunch at noon in winter, Xu Zhongjun and Xie Xiaonian are both used to having lunch, so seeing that it is getting late, Xu Zhongjun said directly: "Daughter-in-law, it's noon, let's cook, I'm good I haven't tasted your craft for a long time, and I'm panicking."

"Okay, what do you want to eat? Order whatever you want, I'm a rich man now!" Xie Xiaonian said proudly with her head held high.

Thinking about the ingredients at home, Xu Zhongjun said: "Ants climbing trees, hot and sour potato shreds, radish and big bone soup, just eat this much first, and if there are other things you want to eat in the future, then order again."

"Okay, wait! I'll do it for you now."

"Daughter-in-law, I'll light the fire and wash the vegetables for you. The water is cold in winter, so I can't freeze you." Xu Zhongjun followed Xie Xiaonian like a follower, and said with a smile.

Seeing Xu Zhongjun being so upbeat, Xie Xiaonian smiled silently.

Waiting for Xu Zhongjun to eat some of the rice cooked by Xiao Nian as he wished, he said happily: "It's really delicious. After eating the rice cooked by you, my wife, I feel like all I eat in the army is pig food."

"Is it that exaggerated?" Xie Xiaonian said amusedly.

"Of course, daughter-in-law, when you go to the army in the future, you will know how unpalatable the big pot of rice is. I didn't compare it before, and I thought it was nothing, but now I think it can only be regarded as filling your stomach. It's no different from compressed biscuits."

In fact, Xu Zhongjun has suffered so much. Sometimes when performing tasks, he has nothing to eat, bark and raw meat. He is not picky at all. He said this just to make Xie Xiaonian happy.

However, Xie Xiaonian's food is delicious, there is no doubt about it, it is not adulterated.

After hearing Xu Zhongjun's words, Xie Xiaonian felt that he was a bit exaggerated, but she was still giggling happily.

After eating lunch happily, Xie Xiaonian yawned and saw Xu Zhongjun consciously tidying up the dishes and going to wash the dishes, and said, "Clean it up, I'm so tired, go back home and take a nap!"

"Daughter-in-law, wait for me, I'll finish packing right away, let's sleep together!" Xu Zhongjun said with bright eyes when he heard that he was taking a nap.
