Chapter 32: The Good Wife
Yang Zongguo was dragged by Luo Jijun to walk around the training ground twice, and when he saw that he didn't speak, he couldn't hold his breath, stopped and lit a cigarette first, and said solemnly, "Jijun, I shouldn't ask more about you, but my brother and sister are so good, I came from the countryside alone, I don't have a job, and I know how hard it is to find some small livelihoods to fill in the family, you don't know how hard it is for Lu Dao to find half a bag of mung beans and how hard it is for a woman to resist back, this is not a hardship that ordinary women can endure, there were some rumors that my younger siblings are not good, I don't care how those rumors came out, but the younger brother and sister I'm looking at can't be wrong, don't mess around. ”
Luo Jijun took a hard puff of his cigarette, "Didn't I just come to you to discuss?" After all, the original thing was that I was sorry for Milan, and now Milan is coming to the city alone, I can't watch her have no place to live and leave her alone, right? ”
Originally, I thought that I had arranged people today, but now that I have arranged them at home, Luo Jijun only thought at this time that after all, he had a past like Milan, and it was not good for Milan to live in like this.
"You are confused, do you know what others will think of your brother and sister like Lu Dao? You owe Milan, but you can do everything you can, you can't even have a child to make up for her, right? Yang Zongguo looked at him with hatred, "Just because I knew about you and Milan, I begged my mother for help, otherwise you think I care about this, in short, you can do it yourself, don't make a fuss between husband and wife, it's too late to regret it." ”
What Yang Zongguo said, Luo Jijun also thought of, it was precisely in this way that he pulled him over, thinking that he would help him come up with an idea, and now I look at it, no matter what the idea is, Milan borrowing to live at home is a problem.
In this way, Luo Jijun couldn't ask what he said, and went home with something on his mind, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Zhang Guilan poking his head out of the kitchen, "Did you forget to buy meat?" ”
"I was in a hurry, and I didn't go to the market, so I was in a hurry to use me to buy a pound at the gate of the courtyard." Luo Jijun had to put on his shoes again.
"Forget it, I'm not in a hurry to use it, I just make you some small pickles for ready." Zhang Guilan had flour sticky on her face, "Have you eaten noodles with water at night, I made sauerkraut, do you see if they have eaten the political commissar Li on the other side?" If you haven't eaten it, come and eat it together, Shandong people love to eat noodles, and I just rolled out some more noodles. ”
Luo Jijun responded happily, and went out happily, his wife was not unhappy, and he was really relieved.
Especially the food at home, it has not been the same in the past few days, and then thinking of Yang Zongguo's saying that his wife walked alone against half a bag of beans at night, Luo Jijun felt astringent in his heart, and realized that he had changed from taking care of his comrades-in-arms' families to being irresponsible, and it seemed that he really had to look at himself again.
Li Xuejun is a talker, and has the temperament of a Shandong man, Luo Jijun responded as soon as he said it, and brought a bottle of wine from his own home, Jiang Zhi was very embarrassed to hold the child, let the child play by himself, she ran to the kitchen to help.
It's winter now, it's just an ordinary family condition, and the food is not good, especially in the countryside, white noodles and soybean oil have to be calculated, only the New Year's festival is to make a meal of dumplings, and there are no conditions for eating some cakes and noodles.
Zhang Guilan loves to eat pasta, the noodles rolled out are thin and strong, when Jiang Zhi entered the kitchen, the noodles were rolled out and cut out, and they were placed on the panel one by one, and I didn't know where to start to help.
"The water is about to boil, you go down, I'll get them some snacks." Zhang Guilan knew that if Jiang Zhi was not allowed to work, she would not be able to eat this meal.
Jiang Zhi had work to do, and people were not so restrained, so he secretly glanced out before he lowered his voice and spoke, "Sister-in-law, I heard that Milan is Camp Chief Luo's childhood sweetheart?" ”
Even people like Jiang Zhi who have no dealings with him know the Dao, and they don't know what is rumored to be outside the Dao.
Zhang Guilan didn't hide it, "Yes, Jijun promised my parents to marry me in order to repay his kindness, and canceled his marriage with Milan. ”
Jiang Zhi became more and more worried when he heard this, "Then you still let her live at home?" In case they 、、、 Luo battalion commander to someone who is not like that. ”
Halfway through speaking, Jiang Zhi immediately changed his words, afraid that such a statement would make Zhang Guilan feel uncomfortable.
Zhang Guilan didn't mind, and was also happy that Jiang Zhi cared about her, she had lived two lives, and she had never had a friend, "Don't worry, Jijun is not that kind of person." ”
Zhang Guilan cut a plate of kimchi and mixed it with condiments, took out half of the cabbage and cut it into shreds, used aged vinegar to brake the water, and then put the scalded vermicelli into it, and added the condiments to accompany the marinade of the hot sauerkraut, which was placed on the table to make people appetizing.
Milan naturally won't be idle, but he can't reach out in the kitchen, so he can only help set the dishes and chopsticks in the living room, and when the noodles are on the table, Li Xuejun's laughter comes out loudly.
"My sister-in-law is very skilled, I haven't eaten such good noodles for many years." Li Xuejun was full of praise after only taking one bite.
"If you like to eat, eat more, and I'll roll it out if you want to eat it later." Of course, Zhang Guilan knows how her craftsmanship is.
Luo Jijun's face was always cold, but when he heard others praising his daughter-in-law for being good, his heart was still beautiful, and he also thought that he couldn't get along with Zhang Guilan because of his parents, and he had to ask carefully when the time came.
The meal was happy, Luo Jijun also drank two more glasses, it could be seen that he was a little drunk, and it could be seen that there was a smile hidden on his cold face, and the buttons of the collar of the army's green shirt were opened, but it did not make people feel rude at all.
Among several people, only Milan smiled reluctantly, when she entered the house and said that she wanted to live here, she thought that Zhang Guilan would be unhappy, but on the contrary, Zhang Guilan was not unhappy at all, and even cooked Zhang Luo to eat, and for a while she couldn't figure out what Zhang Guilan thought, but she just felt that something was strange, and said it again.
After the meal, the three members of the Li family left, Zhang Guilan cleaned up in the kitchen, and when she saw Luo Jijun coming in, she was a little strange, only to see a look of wanting to speak and stop, and then turned around and left, Zhang Guilan raised her eyebrows, it turned out that he still knew that it was difficult to talk about staying in Milan to live here.
Today, Zhang Guilan was unhappy when she heard Milan say that she wanted to live at home, but she knew that if she quarreled with Luo Jijun, that would make Milan proud, and she knew Luo Jijun too well, he was a person like him who came soft, and he didn't feel sorry for you when he came hard, so today she is becoming more and more virtuous, no need to do more, Luo Jijun is also on her side, as for Milan, she can solve her without having to do it herself.
