70s Xiao Que Xing

Chapter 144 Confidential
"Well, then, what do you think we can bring over there?"

"I brought back dried persimmons yesterday, and our family will send 2 catties, as well as one dried pheasant and one hare each, how about it?" Xie Xiaonian asked Xu Zhongjun for his opinion.

"Well, yes, but my sister-in-law's family should send one more pheasant, after all, my father and mother are there! At that time, I will go to the mountains and bring back a few more pheasants, and I will make up for the missing ones for you." Xu Zhongjun added.

"No need to make up, why are you being polite to me! And it's a snowy day, if you go up the mountain, I can't rest assured." Xie Xiaonian was dissatisfied with Xu Zhongjun's dissatisfaction, and said with a pout.

"Okay, I was wrong, I won't be polite to you next time, don't be angry!" Xu Zhongjun hugged Xie Xiaonian and coaxed.

"Hmph, forgive you once!" Xie Xiaonian raised her fist and said.

Although Xie Xiaonian didn't take many things, in this day and age, it was considered a generous gift, even the picky second sister-in-law was very satisfied.

Because the three houses are all next to each other, Xie Xiaonian finished delivering the things quickly.

And every family gave her back a bowl of pickles, and now she was short of these things, so she was not polite, and just continued, these pickles were just enough for her and Zhongjun to eat for a few days.

Although Xu's mother said that she made a lot of pickles this year, she had a portion for them and asked her to get it after eating, but Xie Xiaonian didn't plan to ask for it. It's not easy to ask for it often.

Fortunately, there were two cans of pickles brought back from my uncle's house, enough to eat when Xu Zhongjun returned to the army, and after he left, Xie Xiaonian could eat the pickles he had pickled in the space.

After returning, Xie Xiaonian directly picked up the shovel and prepared to build a snowman. She has been thinking about it all day.

Seeing that she was in such a hurry, Xu Zhongjun also took a shovel to help.

The two of them had just finished building the snowman, and before they got the mouth and eyes for the snowman, Xie Xiaonian threw a snowball at Xu Zhongjun.

"Hahaha! Hit!" Xie Xiaonian looked at the snow on Xu Zhongjun's head and said with a loud smile.

Seeing this, Xu Zhongjun became very playful, and started a snowball fight with Xie Xiaonian.

After the two were tired from playing, Xu Zhongjun saw that Xie Xiaonian's cuffs were wet, and quickly said: "Go back to the room and change clothes, don't catch a cold!"

"Your clothes are even more wet, you should change them first." Because Xie Xiaonian didn't have Xu Zhongjun's aim, and he didn't care about throwing snowballs, so Xu Zhongjun's hair and neckline were wet at this time.

"Your man is in good health. Be obedient, you go change it first, and I'll heat up the kang." After finishing speaking, he went directly to carry firewood.

Seeing this, Xie Xiaonian had no choice but to go into the room and change clothes.

After she changed her clothes, she opened the box again, ready to take out the clothes that Xu Zhongjun was going to change later.

But as soon as Xie Xiaonian picked up Xu Zhongjun's long johns, he felt something hard inside.

When I took it out, it turned out to be a booklet with a khaki cover, nothing was written on it, it was torn, and looked very old.

And this is the picture album that Xu's mother gave to Xu Zhongjun. After Xu Zhongjun took a sneak peek at it yesterday, he casually put it in his clothes. Unexpectedly, Xie Xiaonian found it.

But Xie Xiaonian saw Xu Zhongjun put it so tightly, thought it was some kind of confidential document from Xu Zhongjun, so he didn't open it. After preparing his clothes, he took the booklet and went to the yard.

"What is this! It's still hidden in the clothes!" Xie Xiaonian said directly to Xu Zhongjun holding the booklet.

As soon as Xu Zhongjun saw the thing in Xie Xiaonian's hand, he immediately ran forward, snatched it, and said nervously, "Did you see it?"

"No, you hid it so carefully, I was afraid it was some confidential document in the army, so I didn't open it, what's the matter, I guessed it right?" Xie Xiaonian was the first time seeing Xu Zhongjun so nervous.

"Well, it's a secret! You can't read it!" Xu Zhongjun was relieved when he heard that Xie Xiaonian said he hadn't read it, and judging by her expression, it didn't seem like he had.

This is not a secret, but it is not a military secret, but his own secret.

After Xie Xiaonian saw that it was really something she couldn't see, she was still secretly happy in her heart, feeling that she really had the consciousness to be a military wife, and she definitely didn't watch what she shouldn't.

If Xie Xiaonian knew that Xu Zhongjun learned all the ways to torment her from this, I don't know if he would just burn the booklet.

Xu Zhongjun, who made a false alarm, carefully put the picture album in his arms, and never dared to misplace it in the future, if Xiao Nian saw it, he would be miserable.

After dinner, Xie Xiaonian took advantage of Xu Zhongjun's spare time to take a bath, and pretended to go back to the house to scrub, and then took the opportunity to soak in a hot spring in the space. It's really enjoyable to soak in a hot spring on a cold day.

As for Xu Zhongjun who was taking a bath, he was a little surprised, it was winter, and he took a bath every day these days, but why was his body still so dirty, it made him dare not go to bed without taking a bath, for fear that Xie Xiaonian would dislike him.

Although Xu Zhongjun was very surprised, he just felt that he might work every day, which is why he was so dirty.

And he couldn't think of any other reason, let alone think that it was the reason why Xie Xiaonian put water from the space well when cooking and boiling water.

As for his energy and strength in the past few days, it can only be attributed to the fact that he is refreshed on happy occasions.

But Xie Xiaonian herself didn't know about it, seeing that there was nothing unusual about herself, she thought that Xu Zhongjun was fine.

It's also fortunate that Xie Xiaonian didn't have enough space for well water, if there is more space, it might be exposed.

When Xie Xiaonian was lying on the bed in a daze and was about to fall asleep, Xu Zhongjun pounced on him again, so Xie Xiaonian could only be tortured for half the night.

Although Xie Xiaonian also enjoyed it, she couldn't stand it every day.

Fortunately, there was space and well water, otherwise she might not be able to get out of bed tomorrow, Xie Xiaonian thought about finding a chance to tell Xu Zhongjun, but in this regard, her words didn't seem to be very effective.

After Xie Xiaonian got up the next day, he found that Xu Zhongjun was shoveling snow in the yard, so that when the snow melted, people would slip and fall, and if there was snow in the yard, when the snow melted, the yard would become muddy.

Seeing that Xie Xiaonian got up, Xu Zhongjun hurriedly said: "Daughter-in-law, the rice is warming in the pot, go and eat it quickly, before it gets cold."

Xie Xiaonian blushed and glared at Xu Zhongjun, thinking, it's not because of you that you wake up so late.

However, Xie Xiaonian's stare had no lethality at all, but made Xu Zhongjun feel that Xie Xiaonian was very cute, so he worked harder to shovel the snow.

After Xie Xiaonian finished eating, seeing that there was nothing else to do, she took a shovel and helped Xu Zhongjun shovel the snow.

However, due to fear of the cold, Xie Xiaonian wrapped himself up like a ball and couldn't move freely, so in the end Xie Xiaonian hardly offered any help, just making trouble on the sidelines.

After shoveling the snow from the yard and the road at the door, the two stopped.

However, Xu Zhongjun didn't go to rest either, and picked up the ax again and started chopping firewood.

Seeing this, Xie Xiaonian felt so tired for Xu Zhongjun that he didn't feel tired after working non-stop every day!
So Xie Xiaonian stepped forward and advised distressedly: "I just shoveled so much snow, how tired I am, let's take a rest first, it's not too late to chop firewood later, and don't worry about burning it."

"It's okay, I'm not tired, go and rest, and chop more firewood for you while I'm at home, so you can chop it later if you can save it."

Seeing this, Xie Xiaonian had no choice but to go back to the house and pour a bowl of water for Xu Zhongjun, and let him continue working.

But she herself saw that it was getting late, so she was going to make lunch and burn the kang by the way.

Now every household burns a kang during the day, so Xie Xiaonian is not afraid of causing any suspicion by lighting a fire to cook.

Although they all ate their own food, other families eat two meals, so it's a bit eye-catching to eat three meals at home. Xie Xiaonian has always followed the principle of being low-key and low-key.

Xie Xiaonian ate breakfast relatively late, and she's not too hungry now, but considering Xu Zhongjun's work all morning, he must be hungry, so Xie Xiaonian took out the bean noodles that Xu's mother had given to her before. There are a lot of dried vegetables, you can make dried vegetables and bean noodles.

Black dried vegetables, light yellow noodles, and pickled pickles, homely and delicious.

Xie Xiaonian was not too hungry, so even if he really wanted to eat, he would still be full after eating a small bowl.

And the rest, all went into Xu Zhongjun's stomach, put it in the biggest bowl at home, there were 3 big bowls, Xie Xiaonian was afraid that Xu Zhongjun's stomach would burst.

Xu Zhongjun was really overwhelmed at this time, the food cooked by his little daughter-in-law was so delicious, he really couldn't control his mouth, and then unknowingly overeat.

After eating, Xu Zhongjun consciously washed the dishes, because Xu Zhongjun would consciously wash the pots and dishes after eating, so Xie Xiaonian got used to it.

But every time he saw Xu Zhongjun wearing his apron, Xie Xiaonian would chuckle in his heart.

A tall, tall man, wearing a floral apron pieced together in broken steps, looks like a little daughter-in-law with her head down washing the dishes, which is weird no matter how you look at it.

Even though Xie Xiaonian had seen her many times, she still couldn't help but want to laugh. Of course she was secretly laughing, but she didn't dare to let Xu Zhongjun know about it, otherwise he would be passive and sabotage in the future, and she would have to do the work by herself.

In fact, what Xie Xiaonian didn't know was that Xu Zhongjun had spotted her snickering appearance long ago, but Xu Zhongjun just smiled helplessly and didn't expose it. Who made his little daughter-in-law so cute.

After washing the dishes, seeing Xie Xiaonian still standing at the door of the stove, smiling like a little mouse stealing oil, Xu Zhongjun casually wiped his hands, then immediately put his hands through Xie Xiaonian's fat padded jacket, She stretched her waist: "I'm so happy to see your man make a fool of himself! Huh?"

Xu Zhongjun said the word 'um' over and over again, coupled with the coldness of his hands, Xie Xiaonian immediately surrendered and said: "I was wrong, I was wrong, quickly take out your hands, it's so cold!"

While talking, Xie Xiaonian twisted her body, trying to get away from Xu Zhongjun's cold hands quickly.

"Ice? Then let's go to exercise, and we'll be hot in no time!"

After finishing speaking, Xu Zhongjun directly threw Xie Xiaonian onto his shoulder, picked it up and walked towards the bedroom.
