The afterglow of twilight sprinkled on Gu Qiulan and the others, today's harvest was very good, and several people had smiles on their faces.

"Comrade Xu Zichen, what do you think of this kind of life?"

Although I don't know if the men around her enjoy it, she enjoys this life anyway.

"Yes, it's easy."

He seemed to understand a little bit of what the beautiful woman next to him meant when they met again.

Compared to the life in S City, although it is poor, it is very simple and relaxed, there are not so many calculations outside, and the matter of two years ago has not been clarified, so it is very unsafe for her to stay here alone.

He couldn't allow what happened two years ago to happen again, and the heart-wrenching feeling he felt at the beginning is still unforgettable.

Suddenly, he stretched out his hand and grabbed Gu Qiulan's little hand beside him.

"You..."

Gu Qiulan was taken aback, instinctively like withdrawing her hand, but the more she wanted to withdraw her hand, the more Xu would not let her succeed.

"Let it go."

Her ears were red, and she glared at Xu Zichen angrily.

"Little Seven..."

There seemed to be a kind of magic in his voice, and Gu Qiulan stopped her struggling arm and looked at him blankly.

"You know what? I have a lot of things in my heart that I want to say to you for two years. ”

Gu Qiulan glanced at him deeply, retracted her gaze, and quietly let him lead, with a trace of sour taste in her heart.

Because the man next to him doesn't like her, but the real owner of this body, the original owner who has died, so all Xu Zichen's tenderness is not for her.

He didn't notice anything wrong with the beauty, but he was very happy to see her put away her minions and be as docile as a kitten.

After waiting for a while, she didn't hear his voice, Gu Qiulan Liu Yemei frowned slightly and turned her head to look, seeing him staring at herself with a smile on the corner of his mouth, she quickly shifted her gaze and turned her head in a panic.

"Are you really not going to leave here with me?"

"I don't know, if one day I really want to leave, I won't resist."

"It's just that I don't want to yet."

She didn't hide what was going on in her heart.

"I prefer the quiet and peaceful life here to the competition for fame and fortune outside."

Xu Zichen nodded slowly and said; "This kind of life is really good, but it is not necessarily bad to compete for fame and fortune, just for a better life, for you, I will be willing to do what I will do."

"When will you rest for fame and fortune, and you will not be free to get up early and sleep late. Riding a mule, a donkey, and a horse, the prime minister of the official residence looked at the prince. ”

"Once people's desires are aroused, they are endless, which is not what I want, I prefer a simple life."

Gu Qiulan had a faint smile on her face, and looked into the distance with her eyes long.

"Huh?" Xu Zichen turned his head to stare at Gu Qiulan in surprise, and was very curious in his heart how she could say how philosophical poems, although he only graduated from junior high school, he had good academic performance, and he often read books in the army in the past few years, and he really hadn't read or heard these poems.

I repeated it several times in my heart, and I felt that it was very incisive and reasonable, and such an understanding should not appear in the seventeen-year-old girl in front of me at all.

Another mystery, how many mysteries does she still have?

"Hey, Comrade Xu Zichen, shouldn't you let me go?"

Now that they have arrived at the entrance of the village, although the two have been engaged, in this conservative era, even husband and wife will keep a little distance outside.

He let go of his hand, a touch of loss appeared in his heart, to be honest, he really wanted to hold her hand like this all the time, and not let go.

When they got home, Li Erwa and the other children picked up firewood and piled it neatly by the kitchen, and Gu Qiulan took out four fish of about two catties from the back basket that Xu Zichen had just put down and gave them to the four children.

"Take it back and let your father and mother make it for you to eat."

"Thank you, Little Seventh Sister."

A few children were not polite this time, took the fish and thanked them, and went home happily.

"You have changed a lot, but your kindness has not changed at all." Xu Zichen said softly.

"That's just for those who have good intentions, and what I give to others is my fist."

She clenched her pink fist and waved.

Xu Zichen smiled in his heart, nodded again and again, and looked at her approvingly.

"Comrade Xu Zichen, have you seen enough? Can you have a little eyesight, quickly get these fish out and hang them with straw ropes. ”

She rolled her eyes and gave the task angrily.

"Yes, guaranteed to complete the mission." Xu Zichen stood up straight and raised his arms in salute.

"Puff~"

Gu Qiulan was amused, and soon pretended to put on a straight face, put a pair of small hands behind her back, glanced at Xu Zichen up and down, nodded slowly, put her pink fist in front of her mouth, coughed lightly twice, and said seriously; "Carry out the task, and the chief will check it later."

This pretending to be very cute no matter how you look at it, especially her delicate little face that pretends to be serious, which is full of joy.

"Yes."

He stepped forward again, cooperating with her funny.

The dilapidated courtyard, two adobe houses, the woman is busy cooking, and the man is rubbing the straw rope to hang the processed fish one by one on the rope under the eaves, the picture is simple and unpretentious, but very warm.

After a while, Gu Qiulan, who was making dinner, looked at the hanging fish with satisfaction and nodded; "Comrade Xu Zichen has worked hard, this task has been completed well, and the chief is very satisfied."

"It's good if the chief is satisfied."

Xu Zichen smiled in his eyes, and cooperated with low eyebrows.

"Pretend, hurry up and pack all this, and move the table to eat."

Gu Qiulan glanced at him, turned around and entered the kitchen, and unconsciously, the resistance to Xu in his heart became better and better, and even said that he had a little good feeling.

After eating, waiting for Xu Zichen to clean the dishes and chopsticks, Gu Qiulan looked at the sky and said; "It's not too early, you can go, otherwise you won't be able to see the road after a while."

"Hey, I really don't want to leave, can Xiao Qi discuss it?" He was reluctant to leave.

"I can't."

"We're husband and wife sooner or later, wouldn't it be nice to try to live in the same house now? I'm not going to do anything to you. ”

"Comrade Xu Zichen, you have to inch in."

There was a dangerous glint in her eyes, and her two small hands clenched into fists.

"Uh... Xiao Qi is calm, let's not do it, I'll go, I'll leave immediately. ”

Someone was a little cowardly, turned around with a bowed head, and reluctantly left the courtyard one step at a time, and the character of the cold-faced male god had already collapsed into scum.

"This guy, it's really..."He was like that just now, Gu Qiulan thought it was too funny.

Suddenly, as if she remembered something, she ran out of the courtyard quickly, shouting at someone's back; "Comrade Xu Zichen, don't forget our gambling contract, friendly reminder, ten hares are not easy to get, you have to hold on."

Xu someone, who heard the voice behind him, was a little excited at first, thinking that the beauty was going to invite him to stay, but the painting style became too fast, making him want to cry without tears, and he was about to die of depression.

"Got it." Xu responded to a sentence, like an abandoned puppy, and turned his head away without momentum.

It's so uncute, little one, wait, and one day I'll make your little wild cat docile.

"It's pathetic..."

Gu Qiulan pursed her lips and said a word of sympathy, then turned around and went back to the courtyard.

……

At the gate of the S City Military Region, Gu Qingxue, who was dressed in white and had a beautiful temperament, heard the words of the soldiers standing guard, her embroidered eyebrows frowned, and her bright eyes danced with cold flames.

"I'm on leave, I haven't seen him every day when I go to Xu's house in the past few days, and I haven't heard Xu's mother talk about it, obviously she doesn't know."

"Where did Brother Zichen go?"

Gu Qingxue had a bad premonition in her heart for no reason.

The feeling grew stronger and stronger, and she turned and trotted away under the bewildered gaze of the soldier standing guard.

In the military compound, in the living room of the Xu family, there was a middle-aged beautiful woman sitting on the sofa next to Gu Qingxue, with shoulder-length short hair, which made her noble lady's temperament a little capable, her name is Su Mei, Xu Zichen's mother.

After listening to Gu Qingxue's words, her brows furrowed slightly, and her eyes flashed with thought.

"You say he's been out of the army for days? Why didn't I see it? Did you go on a special mission? ”

"It's... Perhaps. Gu Qingxue felt as if she was too sensitive.

In recent years, many parts of the country were still very turbulent, and soldiers often went on missions, many of which had special tasks, and often used some means to hide people's eyes, and she knew some of them as a descendant of soldiers.

"Okay, you'll be ready to eat soon, Xiaoxue, you stay for dinner today."

Su Mei's frowning brows stretched, and a gentle smile appeared on her face, but her smile did not reach the bottom of her eyes, and it was very fake.

……

The early morning sun penetrated the clouds and sprinkled the earth, Gu Qiulan sat cross-legged on the kang, stretching her waist and stretching her muscles.

"It's a new day, and it's great to be able to live with ease."

Opened the door under the kang, stood in the courtyard, took a few deep breaths of fresh air, the smile on the corner of her mouth widened a little, turned her head to look at the firewood piled up on the edge of the kitchen, and already knew what she was going to do today.

Collect dry firewood.

The winters here are very long, and she still has a very short firewood.

As soon as I opened the gate of the courtyard, I saw someone Xu standing outside.

"Xiao Qi, do you have something to do today? It's okay to wait for me to go up the hill and set up the suit, and go to town with me to change something. ”

"I'm going to go by myself, I'm not available."

She knows very well that this guy looks serious, but in fact he is very shameless, and he gave a little good face yesterday afternoon, and he has to inch in, and it is not okay to go on like this, so he does not give him a good face now.

Little guy, it's really uncomfortable not to scare every day.

"Then I'll go to town by myself later, I can't accompany you today, you have to be careful when you go out, don't let yourself get hurt, and don't go to the river."

Now that the weather is getting colder and colder, seeing that she is still wearing thin clothes, and thinking of her quilt, it should be very cold at night, so he has to get these things for her as soon as possible.

"Comrade Xu Zichen, you widen your eyes and see, am I like a child?"

She pointed at herself and glared at the question, but her heart was warm.

Xu Zichen looked up and down carefully, his eyes stopped on the sensitive parts of his upper body, and he said with a smile; "It's true that I'm not a child anymore, but I'm still too thin, and I have to take care of it."

Sensing his gaze, Gu Qiulan's little face turned red as soon as she brushed it, and she quickly raised her foot and stepped on Xu Zichen's instep fiercely.

"Shameless stinky rascal, dare to look around again, gouge out your eyes."

After saying that, he turned around and trotted to the kitchen.

"Hiss~"

"This girl is violent."

Xu Zichen jumped to his feet, gasped in his mouth, and looked at Gu Qiulan, who ran away in a panic, looking very helpless.
