Remarriage to a Mortal Enemy in the 70s

Chapter 25: Tactics

Views:

After dealing with the four people, it was already evening. There was a military transport vehicle parked on the road. In addition to Qian Xiaoan, there was another driver, Xiao Zhang, in the car. They came to Chuncheng to purchase a batch of supplies.

"Sister-in-law, you must be tired after the journey. Don't worry, take a nap after getting in the car, and we will arrive soon. We are used to driving at night..."

Qian Xiaoan said as he helped move the luggage into the trunk. The trunk was not full, so Xiao Zhang drove, Qian Xiaoan sat in the passenger seat, and Gu Sheng and Zhan Aiping climbed into the trunk.

Her two boxes of books piled in the carriage could serve as stools, so Zhan Aiping sat on them. She also moved to the side to make room for Gu Sheng.

The carriage was pitch black, with only a canopy on top to protect against wind and rain. If you lay down on the edge of the rear fender, you could still see the bright moon and stars outside.

The night is very quiet.

The transport truck swayed out of the city and drove into the mountain road. There were inevitable bumps in the truck, and the people were also shaken and bumped along with the rugged mountain road. If two people were too close, they might accidentally bump into each other.

Gu Sheng naturally put his arms around her waist, holding her in his arms, with her head resting on his chest.

In the past two days, he has gotten used to this "little cutie" leaning on him. Even though he says "women are really troublesome", he is enjoying it.

Even though he was still a virgin, he was no longer the little Comrade Gu who would become stiff when he touched her waist.

Rather, it was a successful underground party whose revolutionary work was progressing smoothly.

Zhan Aiping slept too much during the day and was not too sleepy at the moment, so Gu Sheng whispered to her, "Has it been a long time since you last tasted this kind of feeling?"

Zhan Aiping said with a smile: "Are you talking about being stuffed into the carriage like a piglet?"

Regardless of the era, the method of transporting officers and soldiers is the same, with a group of people sitting on the floor in the carriage.

If you are a new recruit, you can hang a big red flower on your chest.

“Piggy” Gu Sheng: “…”

Zhan Aiping raised her hand and touched his handsome face, sighing: "Old Gu, you are no longer a piglet, but a pig that has been slaughtered."

Gu Sheng: "What about you?"

"Pig farmer."

Gu Sheng laughed: "Don't give me that."

"It would be reasonable if we exchanged our identities." Gu Sheng touched her belly and smiled meaningfully.

He has raised a lazy pig along the way.

Zhan Aiping: "... Stop touching me, there are people in front of me."

This man, it's true that the first time is unfamiliar, the second time is familiar. He blushed when he touched her belly before, but now he reaches out his hand actively.

Qian Xiaoan, who was sitting in the front, leaned back tactically, wishing his head could be moved further and further back. He heard the rustling sound of people talking behind him, but the two people spoke too quietly, maybe they were talking right next to each other's ears, and coupled with the sound of the engine, the conversation became an unclear one in his ears.

He could tell they were talking, but he didn't know what they were talking about.

Qian Xiaoan: “…” It’s really scratching my head!

Gu Sheng, Captain Gu, is good-looking and has a good family background. He is the flower of the hill that is hard to pick in the eyes of many military wives. He is usually not polite to women. Even if countless beautiful literary and artistic soldiers and nurses take the initiative to extend olive branches, he still has a cold face and ignores them. Just like Captain Jiang, he is a bachelor.

He even said, "I'm not considering getting married," "I don't like pampered people," and "What's the point of being pretty?" But this man who "is not considering getting married" married a beautiful woman and brought her here.

And this beauty, she looks "delicate", but that...

Thinking of Zhan Aiping's smooth scissor kick and crotch kick today, Qian Xiaoan felt a chill in his back.

—What would two people like this talk about in private

Faced with such a great beauty, did their Captain Gu act like other newly married soldiers, obediently bowing his head in front of his new wife, being gentle in every way, as if he had become a completely different person

They can watch this kind of fun several times a year.

But today Gu Sheng had a cold face the whole time. It was the girl's first time here and she encountered such a thing, but he didn't say a word to comfort her.

Are you kidding me now

Qian Xiaoan tried his best to retreat tactically, but he still couldn't hear the conversation between the two people clearly.

"When we took part in the competition, we were dragged like this and thrown into a remote mountain area." They were blindfolded and spinning around, not knowing where they were thrown. They had to determine their location based on the terrain and topography nearby and complete the task according to the coordinate points.

Zhan Aiping hates this the most. It’s not that she doesn’t know how to do it, but she’s just a little slow to react.

Gu Sheng was different. He was a living map. Even when he played games later, he could accurately report his coordinates.

So when I was with him, it was quite a cheat. It was the first time I felt so good.

Gu Sheng: "If it weren't for me, you would be lost."

Zhan Aiping said with a click of the tongue: "Go ahead and brag."

Gu Sheng put his arm around her shoulders and said, "I'll take you to target practice on Women's Day. Your family will still get some benefits."

Zhan Aiping suddenly moved closer to him. Under Gu Sheng's gaze, she pointed forward and mouthed, "Will he think you are trying to coax me?"

Gu Sheng caught a glimpse of the back of a head that was about to appear, and then he lowered his head to catch a glimpse of the smile on Zhan Aiping's lips. He thought, if this big baby in his arms leaned obediently in his arms every day, what would it matter if he coaxed her every day

At worst, I’ll just give up my reputation...

The car under him was heading towards the station, towards their future home. The woman he loved was willing to live with him. She became his wife and a member of his family. She came all the way to Yunnan Province with him, and she was willing to bear him a child...

Now Gu Sheng’s mind is full of thoughts of pampering his wife and loving her. He has already abducted her, so of course he has to find a way to keep her.

He was already impatient, so why wait until he was defeated? He might as well just rebel.

Comrade Xiao Gu has armed himself with "Lao Wang's thoughts". As soon as he arrives at the family compound tomorrow, he will directly act as a good husband who loves his wife.

"Let him think whatever he wants. Are you tired? Do you want to lean on me and sleep for a while?" The wind was strong at night and it was a bit chilly. Gu Sheng wrapped Zhan Aiping in a thick coat, held her in his arms around the waist, and used her as a human cushion.

This little girl even thinks the berth is too hard, let alone a box of books.

Zhan Aiping was stunned when she was lifted into the air. The warm embrace locked her tightly.

"I'll hold you in my arms when you sleep at night. Don't worry, you won't fall." Gu Sheng softened his voice and coaxed her.

Zhan Aiping: “…”

"I filled a kettle with boiling water and put it in the thermos when I got on the bus. It should still be hot tomorrow morning. I'll make you some milk powder when you wake up..."

Zhan Aiping leaned against the man's chest, wondering if Gu Laowu had really been fooled by the promises she had made.

Doesn't he care about his face anymore

As an unscrupulous boss who had just taken office, she had thought of several pie in the sky today, but hadn't drawn them for him yet. Gu Sheng only ate one big pie, and he was going to be a loyal employee

While Zhan Aiping was daydreaming about this, she fell asleep.

The next morning, the car stopped at the entrance of the warehouse. Gu Sheng really made milk powder for her. He jumped down from the car like a monkey and asked her to wait. He also got her a hot boiled egg from somewhere. After she finished her breakfast in the car, Gu Sheng stood under the car, held her hand, and carried her down from the car, landing her steadily on the ground.

Seeing this scene, the driver Xiao Zhang said: "Captain Gu, you are really considerate to your wife."

Gu Sheng said casually: "My wife is a girl from Shanghai. She lived in a big city before, so it's inevitable that she is a little spoiled."

Zhan Aiping: “… ?”

Qian Xiaoan's eyes widened: "!!!!"

A little squeamish

Qian Xiaoan, who witnessed Zhan Aiping knocking down three big men, felt his scalp tingling.

After getting off the transport vehicle, they boarded a bright military jeep. This vehicle drove directly into the family quarters on the other side of the camp. Zhan Aiping sat in the vehicle. She pushed Gu Sheng with her elbow and whispered, "You, you..."

Why do you suddenly say she is delicate

Before she could finish, Gu Sheng seemed to have understood what she meant. He whispered in her ear, "You said it yourself. You are very squeamish now and want to be a squeamish girl."

Zhan Aiping: “…”

She also wants to be a giant baby!

Zhan Aiping looked up at Gu Sheng's profile and suddenly smiled. She wondered why this man was so good to her

He always had a way to impress her. Zhan Aiping felt sweet in her heart. She couldn't help but hug Gu Sheng's neck with both hands. She was about to say something in her heart, but she immediately held it back. In the end, she could only utter one sentence: "Gu Laowu, living with you... is really good."

After saying that, she changed her position to hugging his arms and happily fell on him.

Anyway, she would never be the one to confess first.

Since we have to make do with our lives, we just have to make do with it.

"Not bad, isn't it?" Gu Sheng curled his lips and smiled, thinking that this was the real "tactics".

At first, he said that he would not give her a dowry, would not hand over his salary, and would let her do all the housework. This lowered her psychological expectations and reduced her guard so that she would not suspect that he had "bad intentions."

After accepting all this, she was willing to come to Yunnan Province with him. At this time, he would start to treat her well, actively buy the four major pieces of furniture, help her with housework, lend a hand whenever he could, and then find a reason to hand over his salary to her.

Even with all these steps, this silly wife is still extremely unhappy.

Although he didn't think so at first, a cat doesn't matter whether it's black or white, as long as it can catch mice, it's a good cat. No matter what conspiracy or overt scheme he uses, as long as he can achieve his goal, it's fine.

Tactics are flexible and adaptable.

He loves the wife he married with his own ability.

The car drove into the family area and stopped at the gate. Zhan Aiping and the other person got out of the car, unloaded their luggage, and after checking, entered the barracks. The barracks was very large, stretching as far as the eye could see. One end was the family area, and the other was the "office", where several troops were stationed.

As soon as I got off the car, I felt the air outside was particularly fresh, and all I could see was green. Rows of trees were towering into the sky, with green canopies standing tall. Outside the camp were vegetable fields and farmland, and I could hear the sounds of cattle and sheep from afar. Mechanized farming has not yet been popularized, and most of the work still relies on animal power. There are many large buffaloes and oxen raised in each village.

The barracks is a world of its own. There are sentries standing guard at the gate of the family compound. Inside there is a clinic, a service center, a basketball court, and a kindergarten... As soon as you enter, the military bugle calls sound immediately. There are countless military bugles sounding all day long.

"Xiao Gu? Captain Gu, have you brought your new wife here? Oh, this girl is so pretty, is she your new wife?" The selected women's director Li Yuxia came up with several army wives. When they heard that the new army wife had arrived, they all came over to meet her and say hello.

The men in the family are also gossipy and curious, but since no one is here at this time, they can't come and see what Gu Sheng's new wife looks like, so they sent family members to take a look.

They waited for a while and finally saw someone.

"We were just talking about you guys, and now here we go—" Li Yuxia looked at the couple in front of her. The man was handsome and the woman was beautiful, but the more she looked, the more she felt something was wrong. How could this be different from what they had agreed on

Not only was she stunned, but even the military wives around her looked at each other in bewilderment.

Those who came to pick someone up had heard that Gu Sheng's new wife was a retired female soldier, a female military doctor, who was as capable as any man. Someone in the garrison had also seen Zhan Aiping and asked, "Zhan Aiping? I know. When she stood next to Gu Sheng, she was like his younger brother."

Like his brother

The fair and tender girl in front of me looks like a pampered girl from a big city. She doesn't look like a younger brother at all.

Is this a mistake

They look like a perfect match!

"This is Sister Li, this is Sister Tian..." Gu Sheng introduced them to her. He had a strong ability to memorize maps and an even stronger ability to recognize people. He would generally never forget anyone he had met.

Zhan Aiping greeted with a smile: "Hello, sisters-in-law."

One of the sisters-in-law, whose surname was Zhou, was called by name. When she found out that Gu Sheng still remembered her, she couldn't help but grin and felt more favorable towards Gu Sheng and his wife.

Gu Sheng is quite famous in the family compound. He is good-looking, has good working ability, and comes from a good family. Many people want to introduce him to a partner.

But this beautiful lady from a high mountain went to Shanghai and solved her own personal problems. Those people in the art troupe and the military hospital were probably going to be in trouble.

Of course, for these military wives who are already married, it doesn’t matter who Gu Sheng marries.

Since they still remembered her, Mrs. Zhou took the initiative to invite her: "Xiao Gu, bring your wife to our house for dinner when you have time to taste my cooking."

"Okay." Gu Sheng agreed immediately. He said to Zhan Aiping, "Mrs. Zhou, Mrs. Tian...the dishes you cook are all delicious."

The "chefs" in the kitchen squad often cook according to their mood, and their cooking skills vary. In addition, the meals are served in a big pot and the dishes are monotonous. Occasionally, they will go to the homes of military wives to cook their own meals to improve the food.

Nowadays, comrades in the kitchen who cook delicious food are in great demand wherever they go. Of course, they also need a smart quartermaster to allocate the food reasonably, otherwise they will have to eat meat at the beginning and have only coarse vegetables later.

The troops in the army now also raise pigs and grow vegetables. Different companies are different, and the levels of growing vegetables and raising pigs are also different, but no matter what, they are still not as delicious as the small kitchen in the family compound.

Gu Sheng put his arm around her shoulders and whispered in her ear, "I know all the sisters-in-law in the family compound who cook delicious food. I'll tell you in advance which family has delicious food, and then you can go and try their specialties."

Zhan Aiping was speechless, thinking to herself, buddy, how many restaurants have you eaten at to gain some experience

—But it is indeed very enjoyable to eat for free.

Good brothers should go to eat together.

Zhan Aiping couldn't help but want to put her arm around his shoulder: "What a good brother."

This was a habit she had developed some time ago. After she finished speaking, Zhan Aiping coughed and realized something was wrong. The way she was dressed was inappropriate. Thinking that it was her first time entering the family compound, she intentionally dressed herself up to look like a gentle little lady.

The image cannot be lost on the first day.

"I was just joking with Brother Five."

Li Yuxia: “…”

Other sisters-in-law: “…”

—This does look a bit like his brother.

As the director of the women's department, Li Yuxia is very concerned about the life adaptation problems of the new military wives. If they can, the sisters-in-law will help and teach these young people.

Especially girls like Zhan Aiping, who are pretty, know how to dress, have fair skin, and are obviously from big cities, are the focus of attention and are most likely to cause problems at home.

But Zhan Aiping is different from those city girls

Li Yuxia: “…”

Although the details are still unclear, Director Li Yuxia plans to classify Zhan Aiping as a "city girl".

Because her appearance is so deceptive, she is pretty, knows how to dress, has an education, so she will have no trouble finding a job and will definitely get a salary.

Well, this one is the most likely to cause problems.

No matter what era it is, maintaining beauty and prettiness requires costs. Before a girl gets married, she spends her own salary on buying small leather shoes, clothes, going to the movies, watching ballet... Life is very fulfilling.

After getting married, it becomes too much to live the life you had before marriage with the daily necessities of life and raising children, so you start to make a fuss.

Therefore, in some families, even though both of them earn a salary, their life may not be as good as that of a family with only a man earning a salary. The woman does not have a job, but she can take care of the household, sew soles, cook... Such a small family is more comfortable and harmonious.

We still don’t know what kind of daughter-in-law Gu Sheng is.

Li Yuxia asked, "Why don't you say that my food is delicious?"

Gu Sheng said: "The fruit tree in front of Director Li's house can bear seven or eight kinds of fruits, which are very delicious. When the time comes, go to her house and ask for some fruit to eat."

Zhan Aiping: “…” Where can we find delicious food? Does her buddy have everything under control? Is he really planning to take her to eat and drink for free and become a couple who eat for free in the staff compound

Li Yuxia: "… How about your family, Xiao Gu? Xiao Gu, you just moved in with your wife. I see that you have everything else in your house, but there is nothing in the kitchen. You didn't even ask anyone to prepare some pots and pans. Do you not cook at home?"

"You said you would come to our place for dinner. Since you are new here, why don't you treat us to a warm home-cooked meal?"

Gu Sheng said, "My wife can't cook, so we'll eat in the cafeteria from now on. For the warm family meals, I plan to ask Xiao Xie from the Third Battalion's kitchen team to come over and cook a few dishes."

Zhan Aiping said, "I want to cook, Director Li. I want to cook at home. Director, please tell me where to go. I plan to prepare everything I need in the kitchen."

Li Yuxia: “…”

What's going on with this couple

The man said he wanted to eat in the cafeteria, and the woman said she wanted to cook for herself. Why is he not happy even though his wife is willing to cook for him

Zhan Aiping invited: "I want to cook a warm meal myself, and then the sisters-in-law will come and taste my hands-"

"Wait a minute." Li Yuxia held Zhan Aiping's hand and said, "Comrade Zhan, you are a good comrade and a good military wife. You have worked hard along the way. There is no need for you to work so hard. Let Xie from the kitchen team cook a few dishes tomorrow. We will go and warm up the house for you. There will be plenty of opportunities to taste your cooking skills in the future."

Your man is planning to eat in the cafeteria from now on. The clever Director Li thought that even if you cook, I might not dare to eat it.

In order to maintain the harmony of the families of new military families, it is better to let Comrade Xiao Zhan "stop".

Some people’s cooking is terrible, but she doesn’t even realize it.

However, Li Yuxia was still very satisfied with Zhan Aiping, the new military wife. Her attitude meant that their future life would not be too bad.

It also saves her the trouble of mediating conflicts.

Zhan Aiping: “…”

She glanced at the man next to her and thought that this guy would really ruin her reputation.

Mrs. Tian next to him changed the subject: "Captain Gu, your wife is good. She really wants to live with you. You must cherish her."

Gu Sheng nodded and admitted: "She came here from afar with me in the army, so of course I cherish her. In the future, I will help her as much as I can at home. I also hope that my sisters-in-law will take care of her more on a daily basis."

"Of course, of course." Li Yuxia nodded a few times, but after Director Li nodded, she always felt something was not right.

Does this sound like something Gu Sheng would say

Although Gu Sheng is handsome, his facial features and temperament are quite "arrogant". When he scolds people, his face is as cold as ice and his eyes cannot tolerate any sand in his eyes. He is really not a gentle person.

Political Commissar Zhang in their family also said so, saying that he was not the kind of person who would love a woman.

But he doesn’t love women, but does he love his brothers

"Sister-in-law, don't listen to his nice words now." Zhan Aiping took the initiative to say: "Gu Sheng said that he didn't hand over his salary, and said that I will take care of all the housework in the future. He just wants to be a hands-off boss."

"He also said that he was busy with work and not at home. He only came back to sleep on weekdays and asked me to help him wash his clothes."

Gu Sheng: “…”

Li Yuxia and other sisters-in-law: "..." Are you still willing to marry him? For his face

What happened to this young couple

One doesn't want her wife to cook, and the other doesn't want her husband to hand over his salary to do housework.

—It seems to be put together.

The best part about them is their faces.
