Chapter 149

When Xie Xiaonian walked outside the door, she realized that it was really Li Zhenzhu who came, and her heart suddenly became heavy.

"Pearl, why are you here? It can't be that the third grandma has something to do!" Xie Xiaonian cheered up and said worriedly.

"No, the third grandma is well. I'm here to tell you a great news!" Li Zhenzhu said happily.

"What a good thing, so happy! It's like picking up money!" Xie Xiaonian was relieved to hear that the third grandma was gone, and said jokingly while leading Li Zhenzhu into the house.

"I'm happier than picking up money!"

"You came here in such a cold day, it seems that something is not trivial! Why didn't Liu Yifan come with you, he assured you that you came here alone?" Xie Xiaonian teased.

"There's nothing to worry about. I'm not a child anymore, and Xu Zhongjun has returned to the army today. He's a big man, so he can't come here casually." Li Zhenzhu said with a blushing face.

"By the way, did you walk here? And how did you find the place? You have never been here before." Xie Xiaonian asked suspiciously.

"Well, I came here by walking. The two villages are not far away, and there is a mouth under the nose. I don't know the way, so I can ask. Look, I can't find the place!" Li Zhenzhu said proudly.

"Well, you are the most powerful." Seeing her cute appearance, Xie Xiaonian said amusedly.

After leading Li Zhenzhu to sit on the kang, he quickly poured her a bowl of hot water to warm her up.

"Of course, who am I?" Li Zhenzhu replied arrogantly holding the tea mug.

"Oh, let's get down to business, we are separated from Li Zhi and the others now, and we won't have to be in the same yard when spring starts next year!" Li Zhenzhu returned to the topic and said happily.

"Ah, why?"

"You don't know, Li Zhi and Zhang Hao didn't cut firewood well before, but now it's cold and there is no firewood at home, so they steal firewood from us and Chen Jianshe, and it's not a day or two.

In addition, the two of them were always quarreling, making the family uneasy, so taking this opportunity, we directly found the brigade department and separated from them! Thinking of Zhang Hao and Zhang Hao, Li Zhenzhu couldn't help but frowned again.

"Then do you have the money to build a house?" Xie Xiaonian thought, the cost of building a house was not something the two of them could afford.

"No need to build a house, you know, the area where we live is surrounded by vacant land, so we only need to build an earthen wall in the yard, and then re-enclose the yard on the west side!"

"What about Chen Jianshe? He wants to share the yard with you, otherwise you and Liu Yifan, two unmarried men and women, will live in the same yard, and people will gossip about it." Xie Xiaonian knows the power of those gossiping women in the village.

"Well, the captain is also out of this kind of consideration, so he let Chen Jianshe share the same courtyard with us, but we don't eat together, that is, we share the kitchen and toilet. From next year, I don't have to worry about being caught while cooking and eating." Peeping, vegetables and firewood being stolen from time to time, it's not too good."

"That's good, as long as you can live better and better, maybe when you two get married, you can separate from Chen Jianshe!" Xie Xiaonian said with a smile.

"You're teasing me again, we haven't written our horoscope yet!" Li Zhenzhu said with a blushing face.

"You don't intend to marry Liu Yifan, right? The chairman said that love not for the purpose of marriage is a hooligan. I think you are a little hooligan. After teasing you, you are not ready to take responsibility," Xie Xiaonian said jokingly.

"No, I'm not, we are going to get married." Li Zhenzhu knew that Xie Xiaonian was teasing her, so she said with her eyes wide open.

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. By the way, when I mentioned vegetables, I just remembered, let's go, I'll take you to see the vegetables I grow!"

"What kind of vegetables can be grown in the winter!" Now that the cabbage and radishes have been harvested, even the cold-resistant spinach that was planted before is mostly half-dead at this time.

"It's just ordinary vegetables, you'll find out when you come to Westinghouse to have a look." Xie Xiaonian said slyly.

"Vegetables grown in the house?" Li Zhenzhu asked doubtfully while putting on her shoes.

After Li Zhenzhu followed Xiao Nian to the Westinghouse, when she saw pots of green vegetable seedlings on the shelf, she pulled Xie Xiaonian in surprise and said, "It turned out to be real? How did you grow it? Quickly teach me, and I will grow it when I go back." some."

"It's very simple. Didn't you find that the house is much warmer than the outside? As long as the temperature is right and there is a little sunshine. You can also try planting like me when you go back. If it doesn't work, you can also get some garlic yellow seeds. Come on. Look at the garlic yellow I planted, it has only grown so tall in about ten days, and it will be almost ready to eat in a few days."

"Then I'll try it when I go back. If I plant it at this time, it will be eaten around the time of the Chinese New Year." Li Zhenzhu planned to say.

"Aren't you going home for Chinese New Year?"

"If I don't go back, I don't have enough money to buy a ticket, and this is the first year, the brigade won't let me go back!" Although Li Zhenzhu was very homesick, there was nothing she could do.

"Then just feel the New Year's atmosphere here, and see how it's different from yours!" Xie Xiaonian didn't know how to comfort her, so he could only say this dryly.

Fearing that Li Zhenzhu would be in a bad mood, Xie Xiaonian hurriedly changed the subject and said, "Do you want vegetable seeds? Zhongjun and my mother-in-law want a lot, and they haven't finished planting them yet!"

"No, I have some from before! You can keep the rest for yourself. Maybe you can plant it again after it matures this time."

After the two chatted for a while, Xie Xiaonian asked, "Have you had lunch yet?"

"I've eaten. I thought you were going to send the loyal army back to the army in the morning, so I came here early for lunch. The loyal army has returned to the army. If you are bored at home, you can come to my house to play with me. Every day at home is idle."

After Li Zhenzhu went back in the afternoon, Xie Xiaonian was alone and felt very uncomfortable.

When Xu Zhongjun was at home, she sometimes disliked Xu Zhongjun for being too clingy, but when she was alone, she was not used to it.

As she thought about it, Xie Xiaonian's tears came down, she never thought that she would be so independent and not used to being alone, and not only that, but also a little sentimental in the past few days.

In order to prevent her from thinking wildly, Xie Xiaonian entered the space again. She remembered that there was a small bowl of beef in the bamboo house. She had never eaten beef before coming here. Today was just a good time to quench her thirst and keep herself busy.

At this time, cattle can only be slaughtered if they cannot cultivate the land, and even if there is beef, ordinary people like them cannot eat it.

The original owner grew up so old, and when her grandfather was alive, someone gave half a catty of beef to her family, and she just dipped in it at that time, tasted the taste of beef, and then she didn't eat it.

And although there were bison on the mountain in Xie Xiaonian's space, she didn't dare to kill them, so she never ate them.

It's all right now, with one thought, the space can automatically select and slaughter, without her doing it, there will be beef to eat.

In order to pass the time, Xie Xiaonian stopped letting herself think about it, and finally not only made the boiled beef that she had long wanted to eat, but also marinated a pot of beef, which was enough for her to eat for two months.

Sure enough, delicious food has a healing effect. After Xie Xiaonian satiated happily, she temporarily forgot about the unhappiness just now.

At this time, Xu Zhongjun, who had no appetite on the train, also began to feel a little hungry.

So he lowered his head and got off the bed, and took out the cloth bag that Xie Xiaonian had brought with him.

Xu Zhongjun knows his wife's cooking skills, and when Xiao Nian cooked yesterday, he was there to help, knowing that his wife prepared all delicious food.

But as soon as he opened the cloth bag, he was a little dumbfounded. In the cloth bag were not only pancakes wrapped in oil paper, pickles, tea eggs, chicken, etc. he knew, but at some point, Xiao Nian stuffed him with some apples and pear.

What made him dumbfounded was that Xiao Nian even wrapped several bags of snacks such as chestnuts, walnuts, pine nuts, melon seeds, etc. for him, really coaxing him like a child, afraid that he would be bored on the road, and brought snacks to pass the time .

Seeing the food prepared by Xie Xiaonian, Xu Zhongjun felt warm in his heart, and was even more reluctant to leave his little wife.

After clearing his mind, Xu Zhongjun got up and made a lunch box of hot water, then peeled two tea eggs and put them in the hot water to heat them up. After closing the lid, he put the pancakes on the lid to heat up again. Use the heat of the hot water in the lunch box to heat up the pancakes.

Because there is no solidified oil on the chicken, it can be eaten directly even if it is cold.

So Xu Zhongjun tore a few shredded pork, put them on the pancake, and then put the small pickles and tea eggs he brought, just one roll, and a burrito came out.

Coupled with drinking some hot water, taking a sip, taking a sip, even in the cold weather, the body is still warm, and I feel more comfortable than going to a restaurant to eat.

Xu Zhongjun ate 4 burritos in a row before he let it go. The food prepared by his wife was so delicious.

After washing the lunch box and returning, Xu Zhongjun leaned against the carriage and began to eat snacks beautifully, so he couldn't let his wife's thoughts be in vain.

Although Xu Zhongjun's expression was still cold at this time, everyone familiar with him could tell that he was in a good mood at the moment and the food was delicious.

This is Xu Zhongjun's happiest experience of taking a train so far.

But the other three people who were in the sleeper aisle with Xu Zhongjun were miserable. Smelling the aroma of the food Xu Zhongjun ate, they felt that the eggs in their hands had become unpalatable.

Although they are very greedy, they are not children, and in this day and age, those who can take the train to sleep in a sleeper are all from families with good conditions, and they can't be ashamed to ask others for food, so these people feel that this journey , It was more difficult than any time they took the train before.

Eating the loving meals prepared by his wife, Xu Zhongjun felt that the time passed quickly, and when he got off at the station the next day, he didn't feel any tiredness.

When he went to sell his leave, he was ridiculed by the leader that he was in good spirits on happy occasions, and he didn't look like he just returned to the team at all.

In the evening, according to what Xie Xiaonian had prepared, Xu Zhongjun sent some special products to each of his comrades-in-arms. Although each family only had a bagful of wild products such as nuts and mushrooms and fungus, it was still a heartfelt gesture.

Then Xu Zhongjun went to the leader's house with his things, because he had the best relationship with the leader's family, so Xie Xiaonian had 2 catties of dried persimmons in addition to the mountain goods he had prepared.

Because Xu Zhongjun was about to go to the military academy, he directly took the things he was going to entertain his comrades. When he bought some meat and wine tomorrow, he could ask his sister-in-law to help cook a meal and entertain his comrades. It was also his wedding treat.

But what Xu Zhongjun didn't know was that he had just gone to the leader's house, and he was always watching over there. Xu Zhongjun's immediate superior, Wang Anbang's daughter-in-law, Zhao Qiuxiang, had already started telling her husband that Xu Zhongjun sent a lot of things to the leader's house, and was flattering him. Leaders and the like.

Although she was stopped by her husband in the end, she still told the other military wives about it the next day, which made the other two ignorant military wives in their regiment feel that what Xu Zhongjun gave them were all worthless things. Everything is given to the leaders.

Therefore, the three of them had a prejudice against Xie Xiaonian before they met Xie Xiaonian, thinking that Xie Xiaonian was a powerful and thoughtful person.
