The next morning, Wen Nuan got up early and prepared some dry food suitable for the journey. She also packed some fried dough twists and walnut cakes for Li Daxiang and Qinglan to take with them.
Moreover, Commander Xu also arranged for a female comrade from the Propaganda Department to go with them, saying that the two female comrades would have someone to take care of them on the way.
Because there were three people, Wen Nuan prepared a little more and made sure to give everyone one.
In addition to dry food, some snacks had to be prepared to satisfy the two little girls' cravings on the road. Gu Qinglan was reluctant to eat the candied haws she had bought in town, so she left two.
Wen Nuan helped her pack the things into the bag and secretly stuffed twenty yuan into the bag in case of emergency.
Before Li Daxiang came to the family quarters, he went to the hospital to bring Gu Qinghan back to the family quarters.
Gu Qinghan, who had been waiting in the hospital for half the morning, thought that he would be waiting for his wife, but who would have thought that Li Daxiang would come first. Wen Nuan was probably busy with Gu Qinglan's affairs at home.
Li Daxiang looked at Gu Qinghan who had a gloomy face all the time, and thought that he was angry because of Gu Qinglan's matter, so he didn't dare to talk to him.
However, when he heard Gu Qinghan say that Gu Qinglan was harassed in the countryside, he was furious and wanted to fly over and teach that person a lesson.
Wen Nuan over there didn't expect Gu Qinghan to come home so soon. She looked at him in surprise and said with a smile, "I was just thinking about packing my things and going to the hospital to see you. I didn't expect you to come back so early."
Gu Qinghan put his things from the hospital back to his room, looking unhappy.
Wen Nuan poured a glass of water for Li Daxiang, then followed Gu Qinghan into the room and explained to him, "I prepared some dry food for Qinglan this morning. I thought you said you would be discharged from the hospital at noon, so I thought I would go there after I was done with my work."
Seeing that he had no reaction, Wen Nuan walked over, pulled his sleeve, and said softly, "Qinghan, don't be angry. I was wrong."
Gu Qinghan looked at the jade-like slender fingers on his green military uniform, and his heart softened. However, he still turned his head away and asked, "When will Qinglan and the others leave?"
"We'll be leaving soon. Now we're waiting for the female comrade from the Propaganda Department to go get some information from Assistant Commander Xu. When we confirm that the story is true, we'll sign Qinglan's household registration here."
Then, Wen Nuan tilted her head, looked down at Gu Qinghan, and asked with a smile: "Qinghan, are you not angry anymore?"
Seeing that the man didn't say anything, Wen Nuan stretched out her finger and hooked it around his slender index finger, and said to him seriously: "Don't be angry, don't be angry, at most I will make it up to you after Qinglan and the others leave."
This man really has no blind spots in 365 degrees.
How come he looks so handsome from this angle?!
Wen Nuan suddenly stood up straight, then raised her toes, and couldn't help but give the man a loving kiss on his still gloomy face, "Qinghan, you are so beautiful."
Gu Qinghan didn't expect Wen Nuan to suddenly do this. His whole body froze and he subconsciously hugged her tightly in his arms.
All she needs is a smile, and nothing seems to matter.
Gu Qinghan felt a little sour and sweet in his heart, and said in a hoarse voice: "Don't do this in the future."
Wen Nuan smiled and said jokingly, "So domineering."
"But I promise you, I will put you first in the future."
Gu Qinghan's expression clearly showed that he didn't believe her words, and he didn't say anything. Later, he heard footsteps coming from outside the yard, so he said, "It might be the female comrades from the Propaganda Department coming over. Let's go out and take a look."
Wen Nuan thought the man would give her a kiss of love, at least before leaving, but she ended up opening the door of the room like this, feeling a little depressed.
However, Li Daxiang and Gu Qinglan were already ready. I don’t know if the little guy knew that Gu Qinglan would be away for a few days, so he woke up very early today and kept pestering her since he woke up.
Gu Qinglan came out of the small room holding Lele, then kissed her on the head and said, "Auntie has to go take care of something. Lele, wait for Auntie to come back. I will buy you something delicious when I come back."
When the little guy heard about something delicious, he reached out and hugged Gu Qinglan's neck, rubbed his furry head against her neck, and let out an "ah" as a response.
Gu Qinglan carried Lele to Wen Nuan and said, "Sister-in-law, we are ready to leave."
Wen Nuan took the child, smoothed her hair, and then walked to the eight-immortal table. "These are the dry food prepared for you. Eat them on the way. Come back quickly when you are done. Got it?"
Last night Wen Nuan specifically told her that the female comrade in the Propaganda Department was the nephew of the village party secretary whom Commander Xu arranged for her to investigate. If this was true, Gu Qinglan would officially join the big family of the Beicheng Army as a soldier.
"Got it. Thank you, sister-in-law!" Gu Qinglan's mood was obviously different from the previous two days, and the smile on her face was much brighter.
Over there, Gu Qinghan was explaining something to Li Daxiang. Both tall men were very serious and a little angry at the same time, but they still endured it.
The two chatted for a while, and finally Gu Qinghan patted Li Daxiang on the shoulder and said, "Daxiang, I'll leave this matter to you. Thank you for your hard work."
Li Daxiang saluted and said, "I promise to complete the mission."
Gu Qinghan said, "Then you should go quickly and come back soon. Let's go."
》
The little guy didn't know what it meant. He watched Gu Qinglan and Li Daxiang get on the car, then waved to them and said goodbye.
But when the car drove away and disappeared, Lele suddenly started crying.
Wen Nuan listened to the child's crying voice that almost made the roof fall down. She tried to comfort him for a long time but failed. She quickly stuffed the child in her arms to Gu Qinghan and said, "I'll go help you wash your clothes in the hospital. Look at this little guy. He has a bad temper now."
Gu Qinghan held the crying little kid in his arms, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. He leaned close to the kid's ear and whispered, "Your mom is being naughty again. Come on, Dad will take you out to build a snowman."
Then she carried the child out to the yard, took two shovels, and prepared to make a snowman.
The little girl was crying miserably at first, but she stopped crying when Gu Qinghan carried her out to the yard.
Wen Nuan had just found Gu Qinghan's clothes when she no longer heard the child crying.
Wen Nuan took out the two pieces of clothes and pants that needed to be washed, and saw that there was a hole in his underwear, so she sewed it up and threw it into Gu Qinghan's enamel basin, poured some hot water in it, and took it to the kitchen to wash.
Wen Nuan looked out the glass window and saw that the little guy was not crying anymore. He was holding a small shovel in his hand and shoveling the snow in the yard.
The little guy has started learning to walk and can occasionally stand on his own for a while. Now he is standing in the yard, slightly bending over to dig the snow in the yard.
Gu Qinghan was not at home these few days, so Gu Qinglan was the one who cleared the snow in the yard. However, she could not clean it as cleanly as her husband, so some snow was still left on the edge.
But they were all covered in mud and were obviously not as white as snow.
But Lele didn't mind at all. He took a small shovel and shoveled the snow randomly, even shoveling the snow onto his feet. Then he started yelling and insisted that Gu Qinghan clean the snow off his feet.
Wen Nuan ignored them. After washing Gu Qinghan's clothes, she hung them on the rack next to the stove.
Thinking that her husband would be back in the team in the afternoon, Wen Nuan started cooking early and took out the soup from last night and reheated it.
There is not much meat left at home. Gu Qinghan has been in the hospital these days, and Wen Nuan has prepared a meat dish for him almost every meal. Now they have to eat sparingly.
However, Wen Nuan took out a piece of pork, chopped it into pieces, and made a steamed egg with minced pork.
It just so happens that Lele particularly likes steamed egg custard. He can eat half a bowl of it when mixed with rice, so it makes feeding him a lot easier.
Gu Qinghan sometimes helped the children to clear the snow, and from time to time he would look up at the kitchen and see warm and busy figures.
Such an ordinary life made him feel extremely comfortable.
Wen Nuan prepared lunch and walked out to the yard, where she saw two people, one big and one small, having made a small snowman. Gu Qinghan probably thought the snow in his yard was a bit dirty, so he went outside and shoveled some back.
Wen Nuan saw Le Le was about to use the shovel in his hand to flatten the snowman, so she said to the two of them, "It's time to eat. Come back and wash your hands first."
However, the little snowman had already been "harmed" by the little guy, and half of it was knocked off by the shovel. After hearing Wen Nuan's voice, they both turned around and smiled at Wen Nuan.
From this perspective, the father and daughter do look a bit alike.
Gu Qinghan raised the corner of his lips, picked up the little girl with one hand and patted the snow off her body, "I wanted to show your mother the snowman that Dad made, but you just shattered it."
The little guy twisted his body, laughed, and kicked his little feet back and forth, obviously doing it on purpose!
Wen Nuan looked at them, her heart softened, and she smiled: "This little guy loves to cause trouble now."
Lele could tell Wen Nuan was talking about her, so she stretched out her arms to ask her to hug her, but Gu Qinghan had already hugged her tightly and walked into the house: "Look how dirty your hands are, wash them first before hugging her."
When the little girl heard what Gu Qinghan said about her, she even stretched out her hand that was covered in dirt and wiped it on him, then patted his shoulder angrily and started to mutter with her little mouth.
Wen Nuan laughed out loud and said to Gu Qinghan, "See, I've always said your daughter has a bad temper now. I don't know who she took it from! You have to blame her."
After Gu Qinglan and the others left, he kept crying and couldn't be comforted. He wasn't so hard to comfort before.
But fortunately Gu Qinghan took her to make a snowman, otherwise, who knows when they would stop.
Gu Qinghan carried the child to the warm enamel basin, rubbed the child's dirty hands a few times, and then gently patted the little guy's butt: "Be a good boy next time..."
Then he looked at Wen Nuan and smiled, saying, "I taught her a lesson. You hold her first and I'll wash my hands."
warmth:"… "
Well, that's a lesson learned.
However, the little girl had no self-awareness after being taught a lesson. After Wen Nuan put her on her special dining chair, she clapped her hands when she looked at the food on the table, and stretched out her arms, wanting to grab it with her hands.
Wen Nuan was quick to move the steamed egg with minced meat away and then put a spoon into Lele's hand: "You can't grab it with your hands, you have to use a spoon."
The little fellow didn't know how to use cutlery very well. He took the spoon and poked it twice in his iron bowl, and cried out "ah" twice.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Wait until your father washes his hands, then we can eat together."
However, Wen Nuan still scooped a piece of steamed egg with a spoon, put it in the little girl's bowl, and then mixed it with the rice for her.
Gu Qinghan came over. In the past, he always sat on the left side of the little girl, and Wen Nuan sat on the right side, but this time he sat next to Wen Nuan, sitting next to her.
"Eat. No need to wait. Lele must be hungry." Gu Qinghan took the chopsticks from the table and scooped a large spoonful of steamed egg custard for Wen Nuan. The egg custard was steamed until it was tender and chewy. When it was scooped up, it shook like a pudding and looked very fresh and tender.
Wen Nuan saw a large piece of egg in her bowl, so she glanced at Gu Qinghan and said, "Eat more. We will be back in the team soon. How can you not eat enough?"
Then Wen Nuan scooped another spoonful for him and put it in his bowl.
When the little guy saw this, he dropped the small spoon in his hand and said "ah" twice to Wen Nuan, wanting the spoon for scooping eggs in her hand.
Wen Nuan was originally going to change the spoon for her, but Gu Qinghan had already picked up the spoon that the little one had just thrown away from the table and stuffed it back into Lele's hand.
"Don't spoil her, just eat."
Wen Nuan glanced at Le Le, who seemed a little aggrieved, and decided not to indulge her. She took her spoon and fed her a small mouthful of rice.
But the little guy was probably a little angry, and it took him a long time to finish the meal.
After eating and drinking, Gu Qinghan cleaned up the dishes.
He came out after washing the dishes, and suddenly came over and said to Wen Nuan, "Let Le Le take a nap early."
Wen Nuan originally wanted to take the child to Sister Guihua's place to have some soles sewn for the little one, but when she saw Lele yawning several times after dinner, and thinking that she woke up a little early today, she took her back to the room.
The little guy was probably really tired. He woke up early, cried for a long time, and fell asleep not long after drinking milk.
Wen Nuan felt very sleepy after having a full meal, so she adjusted her posture and planned to take a nap.
But the next second, she was picked up by the man who had been sitting by the bed reading documents. She was so scared that she exclaimed: "You scared me to death!"
Wen Nuan punched the man's strong arm, subconsciously glanced at the child, confirmed that she was sleeping soundly, and cursed in a low voice: "Why didn't you tell me what you were going to do?"
Feeling dizzy, Wen Nuan was carried out of the room by Gu Qinghan and then walked into the small room.
Thinking that this was the room where Gu Qinglan usually slept, she became nervous and hugged Gu Qinghan's neck tightly, "Let's not sleep here, okay?"
"Are you sure you want to be there? Aren't you afraid of waking Lele up?"
Gu Qinghan carried the person into the small room, then hooked the door with his foot. Fortunately, the force was not strong, so it was only half-closed.
Wen Nuan then noticed that the quilt that Gu Qinglan had slept on had been replaced with Gu Qinghan's old quilt.
When Gu Qinghan put her on the still slightly cold quilt, Wen Nuan punched his chest twice again, but she was afraid that his body had not recovered yet, so she did not dare to use too much force: "Aren't you going to return to the team this afternoon? You are not ashamed in broad daylight!"
Gu Qinghan turned over and pressed on her, looking down at Wen Nuan who was blushing, and kissed her hard on the lips: "Didn't you say you would compensate me well? Are you trying to cheat again?"
As he spoke, his broad, warm palm skillfully reached over her clothes, and his calloused fingertips stroked her warm back, causing her to shiver slightly.
Wen Nuan bit her lip to prevent herself from making any strange noises. She looked at Gu Qinghan incredulously with her big, watery eyes and said, "I was saying I'd make you something delicious tonight to make it up to you, you rascal, what are you thinking!"
Gu Qinghan's eyes were red as he looked at the towering figure that was as tall as a snow lotus. He lowered his head and uttered something incoherently.
Wen Nuan was unable to think of anything and cursed the man softly again, but her words disappeared between their tightly locked lips.
*
After Gu Qinglan left, Wen Nuan became bored again, so she took her child to Sister Guihua's place every day to learn how to sew shoe soles.
Now Lele has started learning to walk, and I estimate that in another month he will be able to walk on his own.
Shoes still need to be prepared, so she makes a pair of shoes for her child while she has time. After spring comes and the weather gets warmer, the child will probably learn to walk and go out of the yard to play.
Within two days, Wen Nuan finished making the shoes, but there was still no news from Gu Qinglan and the others.
The place where Gu Qinglan went to work in the countryside was in the next city. Since Commander Xu had arranged a car for them, it should have taken them no time to get there.
But Gu Qinghan said it would probably take another two days for him to come back.
A few days later, Secretary Song came with some apples, leeks, eggplants, and pea sprouts, saying that he wanted to ask Commander Xu about diet.
Originally, Commander Xu was equipped with guards and a nanny, but Secretary Song had retired and had nothing to do, so she basically took over the kitchen at home.
This time, Commander Xu had a minor operation, so she put a lot of thought into making something good for him. She just happened to know that Wen Nuan was good at cooking, so she came to her house.
Wen Nuan was a little flattered, and quickly invited Secretary Song into her room. Secretary Song looked around the small living room and said with a smile, "Your house is so tidy and clean, it's comfortable to look at."
Wen Nuan poured her a cup of tea, handed it to her with both hands, and smiled: "There is nothing to do when taking care of the children, so just clean up."
Secretary Song sat on the sofa, took the cup handed to him by Wen Nuan, and asked with a smile: "Coming from the south to the north city, are you getting used to life there?"
Wen Nuan felt that Secretary Song spoke very gently. She didn't expect that he still cared about her, so she nodded and said, "I'm used to it. Besides, there is no snow over there. I can play in the snow here. It's a very happy experience."
"That's good. There were many comrades from the south in the army before, but they all found it difficult to adapt to the climate and diet here. If you encounter any difficulties in life, feel free to report to the organization. The organization will not ignore anything that can help you." Secretary Song looked at the little one in Wen Nuan's arms. Her little face was still white and tender after a winter, and it looked like she was well taken care of.
Wen Nuan nodded: "Thank you Secretary Song for your concern. The organization has taken good care of us."
Looking at this cute little girl, Secretary Song also thought of his grandson whom he hadn't seen for nearly a year, and his heart softened all of a sudden, "Can I hug her?"
"Of course you can." Wen Nuan smiled and carried Lele over: "She's not that shy, but now that she's learning to walk, she might be a little naughty. Secretary Song, please be careful."
Secretary Song took the child and smiled: "He looks so cute. His big eyes look just like yours."
The little girl seemed to know that Secretary Song was praising her. She giggled happily and clapped her hands.
Secretary Song nodded: "She is indeed very well-behaved and not afraid of strangers. How can there be such a cute little kid?"
She couldn't help but soften when she saw it, and at the same time she felt Wen Nuan that it should be no problem even if she took the child to work in the kitchen.
So she said, "Are you sure you don't want to consider the job of nutritionist in the kitchen of the cooking class?"
Wen Nuan felt a little bit sorry when she heard this, but she thought it was worth it to exchange a job for Gu Qinglan's change of fate.
Secretary Song saw her shaking her head and stopped teasing her: "Your Commander Xu was just teasing you. The job of nutritionist in the flight kitchen belongs to you."
Wen Nuan looked at Secretary Song and was a little bit unconvinced, "Really?"
Secretary Song smiled and nodded, teasing the little guy's cute chubby face. "Comrade Xu knew I was coming, so he told me to tell you that you can report to the flight crew kitchen of the flight team's cooking class in March."
Wen Nuan couldn't hide her joy and kept thanking Secretary Song.
Secretary Song came here mainly to ask about Commander Xu's diet. Wen Nuan knew that Commander Xu had stomach problems, so she told Secretary Song about Commander Xu's diet after the operation. He must avoid foods that easily cause bloating, and thin porridge is not particularly friendly to stomach problems. It is better to eat some noodles, and eat small meals frequently.
Later, Wen Nuan wrote down some ingredients for traditional Chinese soups for her.
Wen Nuan is from the south and likes to cook traditional Chinese soups. During the past few days when Gu Qinghan was hospitalized, she cooked various bone soups every day for nourishment.
*
As soon as Secretary Song left, Gu Qinglan and Li Daxiang came back.
Wen Nuan was just about to close the door and coax Le Le to sleep for a while, but she saw Gu Qinglan skipping towards the yard.
She was wearing a neat green military uniform, which made her tall figure even more eye-catching.
It looks like things went smoothly!
Seeing Gu Qinglan wearing the military uniform, Wen Nuan felt relieved.
"sister in law!"
Gu Qinglan had noticed Wen Nuan a long time ago, but it was not a good idea to shout loudly in the staff compound. Her eldest brother had said before that she had a very loud voice and her voice could be heard in the corridor of the compound.
But at this moment she was so happy that she wished she could grow wings and fly back home so that her sister-in-law could see her in this eye-catching military uniform.
But the moment she saw her sister-in-law, she felt her nose sore again and wanted to tell her about her experiences in the past few days. She couldn't find anyone to talk to, and Wen Nuan was the only person she could talk to.
"Qinglan, you're back!" When Wen Nuan heard Gu Qinglan's familiar voice, she carried Lele out of the yard. It had only been a few days since they last met, and she seemed a little haggard, but the military uniform added a lot of points to her.
Lele was a little sleepy at first, but when he heard Gu Qinglan's voice, he seemed to remember their recent interactions. He stretched out his arms towards Gu Qinglan and made several "ahh" sounds.
Wen Nuan took the bag from her hand and asked Gu Qinglan to hold the child. She looked at her and smiled, "It looks so beautiful! Qinglan, you look so good in this military uniform!"
Gu Qinglan was tall and pretty. The three siblings in the Gu family were all good-looking, and they looked even more elegant in military uniforms.
Gu Qinglan's eyes lit up when she heard this. "Really? I came back to see you as soon as I put on my military uniform!"
"Of course it's real. It's really beautiful." Wen Nuan glanced at Li Daxiang behind her and said, "Come in first and have some tea."
The weather has been better these past few days, and the snow in the yard is slowly melting. It feels a little colder when the snow melts than when it snows, so it's still warmer indoors.
Wen Nuan poured each of them a glass of water. Li Daxiang didn't want to stay at first, but Gu Qinghan came home right after him and asked him to stay and have dinner together tonight.
Everyone sat down. Wen Nuan saw that they had all had their hot tea, so she asked, "When did you come back?"
"As soon as we came back, we went to transfer our household registration. Then Daxiang and the female comrade from the Propaganda Department took me to the political commissar's office. My eldest brother happened to be there at the time, so he reported in with me." Gu Qinglan spoke very fast and loudly, and then she talked about the transfer of household registration.
Wen Nuan smiled as she listened to Gu Qinglan talk about what happened after she returned to the army. Seeing that she finally paused, she asked, "What kind of soldier are you now?"
Gu Qinglan smiled sheepishly and continued, "The political commissar told me to choose by myself, the Propaganda Department, the Cultural Department, and several other departments I don't remember. But I haven't chosen yet. I told the political commissar that I have to go back and ask my sister-in-law. I will listen to you. I bit the bullet and asked the comrades in the quartermaster's office for this military uniform. I just want to let you take a look at it."
Wen Nuan was amused by her. If Gu Qinghan hadn't been there, the political commissar would probably not even bother to pay attention to her. This girl was too unstable.
Seeing Wen Nuan smiling, Gu Qinglan scratched her head shyly and asked, "Sister-in-law, which department do you think is better for me to go to?"
Wen Nuan didn't expect that Gu Qinglan would really listen to her. She looked over to Gu Qinghan, and the man just nodded, indicating that she should make the decision.
Wen Nuan thought of Gu Qinglan's choice of being a doctor in her previous life, so she didn't think much about it and said, "Then go to the Medical Department and start as a medic."
"Medic, medic?"
Wen Nuan nodded, "Yes, save the dying and the wounded. Why? Are you unwilling?"
"Of course I am willing. I was just afraid that you would ask me to go to the Cultural Department or something like that. I am too careless to handle those things. Good thing I saved the life. I will study hard and will not disappoint my sister-in-law's expectations of me!"
Gu Qinglan remembered that Wen Nuan had rescued her elder brother from the snow at a critical moment. In fact, she also wanted to be a medical worker at that time.
It was unexpected that Wen Nuan agreed with her idea. This was great.
Wen Nuan touched her head and had high hopes for her: "Qinglan, you can do well. When you go to the medical department, learn from your seniors, do more, talk less, and learn medical knowledge well. When you went to the countryside, you were going to high school, and your education level was not low. Maybe you can become a doctor in the future."
Wen Nuan knew that Gu Qinglan was not a stupid person. As long as she was willing to put in some effort, she would definitely be able to do better in the future.
It would be best if I could be a doctor.
Gu Qinglan nodded firmly: "Sister-in-law, I will definitely do my best and live up to your expectations of me!"
She just found out that her place in the army was exchanged by Wen Nuan for her work.
When she found out, Gu Qinglan was ready to back out, but she felt relieved when her eldest brother told her that the job opportunity in the kitchen still belonged to her sister-in-law.
So she must not let her sister-in-law down. Even if it costs her life, she must achieve something to show Wen Nuan.
She not only wants to be a good medic, but also wants to be a doctor in the future.
Wen Nuan nodded, "That's a must. Sister-in-law also believes in you. You can do better."
If Wen Nuan didn't want her to become a better person, she wouldn't have given up her job and given her a place in the army. If she had just rescued her and let her get married, that would have been a solution, but Wen Nuan wouldn't do that.
She hopes that Gu Qinglan can learn more knowledge and enrich herself in the future. She herself is her most solid support, not relying on anyone else.
*
To celebrate Qinglan's escape from that scumbag, Wen Nuan took out the lamb chops that she hadn't eaten before and made a cumin lamb chops dish for Qinglan to celebrate.
Chop the lamb chops into pieces, then put them into a pot with cold water, add bay leaves, peppercorns, star anise, ginger slices, and radishes to remove the fishy smell.
Finally, stew it for half an hour to soften the lamb chops so that they are less difficult to chew.
Gu Qinglan was in charge of lighting the fire. She had just started to stew the food when she could already smell the rich aroma. "Sister-in-law, I'm drooling now. It smells so good!"
No wonder it attracted the attention of Commander Xu, this dish is so delicious. Even if you don’t eat the meat, you can have two bowls of rice with some of the sauce!
Wen Nuan was chopping the side dishes neatly. When she heard what Gu Qinglan said, she curiously asked about their situation in the countryside: "Has the person who bullied you been arrested?"
Gu Qinglan paused while she was lighting the fire, then nodded slowly: "Don't worry, sister-in-law, that scumbag has been arrested and sent to labor camp."
Then Gu Qinglan added: "The big bang also broke one of his legs."
Wen Nuan raised her eyebrows and asked, "Which leg?"
When Gu Qinglan heard this, she still didn't quite understand, but after thinking about it, she actually understood what Wen Nuan meant, and couldn't help but said distressedly: "I'm not sure either."
Maybe both
Wen Nuan curled her lips and sighed, "What a pity."
That scumbag’s third leg should be crippled!
Gu Qinglan slowly talked about what happened in the past few days. It turned out that the scumbag was the nephew of the village party secretary and was also a cadre of the village committee. He also relied on his uncle who was the party secretary to deceive the educated youth from the city everywhere, deceiving them that he could give them the qualifications of workers, peasants and soldiers.
But the prerequisite is to be friends with him. In addition to Gu Qinglan, there are other female educated youth in the educated youth dormitory who have also been harassed by that scumbag.
But this kind of scumbag usually won't admit it so easily. At the beginning, he was very arrogant and insisted that it was Gu Qinglan who slandered him, saying that Gu Qinglan wanted to escape working in the countryside. He also blocked Qinglan's application for household registration transfer and would not let her leave.
Qinglan said that many female educated youth were unwilling to testify against the scumbag at first for the sake of their own reputation. However, Li Daxiang secretly investigated for two days and found out that the scumbag not only harassed the female educated youth, but also secretly had an affair with two female comrades in the village. However, the two female comrades did not know about it and were foolishly waiting for him to marry them.
Li Daxiang found the parents of the two lesbians and spread the matter. The scumbag started to panic. Although the two lesbians were very sad, they still beat the man up to vent their anger.
When the village party secretary found out that his nephew bullied female comrades, he was so embarrassed that he didn't help him and took him to the commune for criticism. Later, more and more female educated youth were willing to stand up and testify against that scum.
He then admitted that he had used his position to deceive the female educated youth.
What shocked Wen Nuan the most was that Gu Qinglan said that a female comrade secretly found her and cried and said that she had been deceived and was pregnant with that scumbag's child, but she had an abortion when she went home for the New Year.
Gu Qinglan did not tell anyone else about this matter, fearing that the female comrade would not be able to accept the strange looks from others, but she still told Li Daxiang, so Li Daxiang crippled one of the scumbag's legs.
In the end, the bastard was successfully sent to labor camp and sentenced to seven years.
Wen Nuan's hands were shaking with anger as she held the big knife. She wanted to stab that scumbag a few times as well: "Fortunately, he was sent to prison in the end. Otherwise, who knows how many more lesbians this scumbag would have harmed!"
"Thank you, sister-in-law. If it weren't for you, I might be the next one." Gu Qinglan lowered her eyes slightly. Even if she thought about it, she felt suffocated.
Wen Nuan touched her head. "It's fine now, don't think about it anymore. Remember this in the future. If you encounter something like this, you must speak out loudly. It's those scumbags who are embarrassed, and they should be blamed, not you who are bullied. Do you understand?"
Gu Qinglan nodded heavily, thinking that Wen Nuan was right. She had felt that it was too embarrassing to talk about such things before, and was afraid that others would not believe her and that others would think she was an indecent person. In fact, the ones who should be most ashamed and blamed were those bastards.
Wen Nuan didn't want to say too much of this kind of thing on this happy day. She picked up the stewed lamb chops and put them into the pot with hot oil. A sizzling sound came out.
After frying the lamb chops until they are golden brown, pour in some rice wine, soy sauce, sugar and salt.
By the way, add a little bit of the lamb chops soup just now, cook over high heat until the sauce is reduced, and finally add cumin and stir-fry.
The aroma of cumin wafted out instantly, filling the whole house with the fragrant smell, attracting both Gu Qinghan and Li Daxiang.
Gu Qinghan looked at the warm cumin lamb chops that were already on the plate, and then patted Li Daxiang on the shoulder: "Daxiang, you've worked hard this time, eat more later."
Wen Nuan handed the lamb chops to Gu Qinghan and asked him to take them to the living room. "Yes, Daxiang, you have made the greatest contribution this time. You should eat more. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid Qinglan wouldn't be able to come back so soon."
Li Daxiang glanced at Gu Qinglan and scratched his chin uncomfortably. "Anyone would do the same. I'm just doing my best."
Gu Qinglan looked over and said, "Yes, Comrade Li, I have to thank you again this time."
Li Daxiang felt even more uncomfortable. He said "you're welcome" with a red face and went to get the dishes and chopsticks.
After dinner, Li Daxiang sat for a while and then went back to the dormitory. Qinglan had not yet been assigned a dormitory, so she slept here for one night. She would officially report tomorrow and would live in the dormitory assigned by the army afterwards.
Gu Qinghan cleared the table, and Gu Qinglan boiled a large pot of water. After she wiped herself, she went to bed early, saying that she was afraid she would not be able to get up the next day.
Wen Nuan used the remaining hot water to wash the child's butt and wipe his body. The little guy was dry and in better spirits. He held onto the headboard and stood up to pull the mosquito net.
There are no mosquitoes in the north in winter, but I was too lazy to take down the Wen Nuan so I kept it hanging. Now that the little guy can stand up, he likes to make trouble everywhere.
We boiled a little too much water tonight, so Wen Nuan wiped her body. Since she didn't take a nap or soak her feet at noon, she just washed herself and went straight to bed.
When Gu Qinghan came back, Lele was still pulling the mosquito net, with her hair loose and reading a novel.
Before, Gu Qinghan saw that she loved reading books, but there were no other books at home except some of his training books, so he borrowed two novels from the political commissar and brought them back for her to read.
Seeing Gu Qinghan coming back, Wen Nuan stopped looking at her. Seeing the little girl still standing by the bed, she pulled her and said, "Okay, you haven't had your nap yet. Go to bed quickly."
I don't know if the little fellow understood or was just tired of standing, so he sat down on the bed and crawled towards the warmth.
Lele probably weighs about 20 to 30 kilograms now. He threw himself on Wen Nuan, causing her some pain.
Wen Nuan was too lazy to move, so she held her in her arms and laid her on the bed, then undressed her and fed her.
Now the little one eats a lot of complementary food, and doesn't like to drink milk as much as before. He only drinks milk about three times a day. At night, he basically fell asleep while eating.
But tonight, for some reason, she bit Wen Nuan a few times with her teeth, and Wen Nuan slapped her butt: "Stop biting, it hurts so much!"
This was not the first time that Lele bit her. She loved to bite when her baby teeth just came out. However, Wen Nuan would always tell her seriously not to bite, and the little one would stop biting after hearing that.
But every time when her teeth were about to come out, she couldn't help but bite. Now when her big black eyes saw that Wen Nuan was really angry, she knew she had made a mistake and didn't dare to bite again. She grabbed Wen Nuan's clothes with both hands and closed her eyes cunningly.
But after a while, he opened his eyes again and looked at Wen Nuan, who said unhappily, "Go to bed quickly. What time is it? Are you a night owl?"
I clearly didn’t take a nap at noon, so how could I stay up so long
Gu Qinghan turned sideways, propped up his head with one arm, looked over from behind Wen Nuan, and then grabbed the little guy's kicking feet.
The little girl thought Gu Qinghan was playing with her, so she stopped drinking milk and squirmed with laughter, trying to hide under the quilt.
Wen Nuan glared at Gu Qinghan unhappily, then looked at the little one crawling around and said, "It's all your fault. She was almost asleep, but now she's ready. Go and coax her to sleep."
Gu Qinghan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he had to pick up the child and play airplane hug with her.
I don't know how long it took, but the child finally fell asleep in his arms. Wen Nuan also lay on the bed and yawned.
Gu Qinghan carefully placed the child in the innermost part, then hugged Wen Nuan from behind and whispered in her ear, "The commander said that you should report to the kitchen team in March."
Wen Nuan hadn't told Gu Qinghan yet, but she already knew it. However, she was still surprised and said, "Really?"
Gu Qinghan hugged the man tightly, thought for a moment, and then said, "Well, the division commander said that you saved two lives, so one job and one military quota is not too much. But the work of the kitchen squad may not be so easy. If you can't adapt, don't be stubborn, tell me."
Wen Nuan slightly turned her body to a comfortable position, then smiled and said, "I know, you don't have to worry."
Gu Qinghan heard the woman's slightly happy voice and felt happy for her, so he said, "Let's find some time to buy a bicycle so that it will be more convenient for you to go to and from get off work."
Wen Nuan knew that Gu Qinghan had won a second-class merit this time and had a bonus, which was just enough to buy a bicycle, so she held Gu Qinghan's hand on her belly, squeezed it, and said with a smile: "Okay."
