Chapter 21: Change
Zhang Guilan's eyes were in a trance, and her originally determined heart was shaken by two red ears. She used to think that Luo Jijun was too cold, but today, when we got along for the first time, she found that he didn't know how to deal with women, or that he usually only interacted with women.
In a crowd of men, women are basically out of reach.
"Guilan, you have to believe me. I am a soldier. I have sworn to be loyal to the motherland, and I will also be loyal to my wife. I promise you this with the honor of a soldier." Luo Jijun took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket.
After lighting it, I took a deep breath and instantly the whole room was filled with smoke.
When he first chose this marriage, he originally thought it was very simple, but now it seems that he thought marriage was too simple. Maybe Zhang Guilan was right. He had never looked at her with the mentality of a husband. More
It is a kind of caring responsibility, but there is no care and love for his wife.
Zhang Guilan lowered her head. She was a little hesitant. In this era, there were very few people who fell in love freely. They all got married on blind dates. Some people even never met before getting married. The kind of thoughtfulness she imagined after marriage may be too high an expectation.
, inexplicably, and felt lost in my heart.
And after she was reborn, after she realized her mistake, and wanted to be a good wife, why wasn't she also thinking about making up for the regrets of her previous life?
"I want to go back to my hometown and stay for a while." Zhang Guilan made a decision after struggling.
Maybe if the environment changes, the mood will be different.
"You still don't believe it?" Luo Jijun was helpless.
"No, I just want to give everyone a moment to think about it. Besides, it's been a while since I've been here, and I miss home too." Zhang Guilan told the truth. She lived two lives again. In her last life, she never saw her parents until she died.
, now I realize that the only people who are best to me are my relatives.
Luo Jijun stared at Zhang Guilan seriously and saw that her eyes were clear and she did not avoid her in a panic. After confirming that she was not lying, he nodded, "Okay, I will listen to you."
Zhang Guilan smiled and said, "It's getting late. You haven't eaten yet. I'll go cook."
"You're sick, let me do it." Luo Jijun instinctively stretched out his hand and pulled Zhang Guilan's body up.
Luo Jijun's hands were very big, and there were calluses in them, but it made her feel that it was not hands that were holding her arms, but a pair of pliers. Although it didn't hurt, it felt a little stiff.
"I'll go." Luo Jijun retracted his hand in panic and ran out of the house.
Until he entered the kitchen, he was still thinking about the soft and thin arm. The more he thought about it, the more irritated he became, as if there was a kitten scratching in his heart. It was so itchy that it made people angry. He pursed his lips tightly. It was really strange.
.
After recovering his thoughts, Luo Jijun looked at the kitchen with surprise in his eyes. The kitchen was obviously still the same layout as before, but it looked different from before. There were two small jars placed on the table near the window. Luo Jijun opened them and found that they were filled with water.
The radishes and carrots were cut into strips, as well as green onions. As soon as they were opened, a light smell of kimchi hit the nostrils, and the corners of Luo Jijun's eyes twitched up. Mixed with chili oil, it was perfect for rice.
Then his eyes fell on a can bottle next to the jar. It was full of fried chili oil. It made people appetizing. Luo Jijun couldn't help but swallowed. Such a side dish is best used to make pickled cabbage soup.
"I'll do it." I was so distracted that I didn't notice when Zhang Guilan walked in.
Luo Jijun seemed to have been caught for doing something wrong. He forgot that Zhang Guilan was still sick and escaped from the kitchen. Finally, he was stopped by Zhang Guilan's words behind him, "Go and see Milan."
Zhang Guilan has bad thoughts. Who doesn't think so? From now on, she will learn from Milan in her previous life. She does bad things and is praised as a good person. Apart from other things, when she returns to her hometown this time, Milan will be waiting for her.
If someone points it out, aside from other things, even Yang Zongguo, who saw what happened today, would not be optimistic about Milan.
Luo Jijun didn't think much, he said "Hello", knocked on the door of the east room and pushed it open. However, he didn't close the door, but opened the room for most of the time. Luo Jijun also knew at this time to avoid suspicion.
Zhang Guilan strained her ears to listen to what was going on in the east room while cooking. She was originally so sick that she felt weak, but she got better after such a fuss. She washed the rice and steamed it, took the box and opened the cabinet below, and took some food from the small jar.
Two handfuls of sauerkraut came out. During the days when she was making mung bean cakes, she took the time to buy Chinese cabbage and soaked it herself. While soaking, she cut the Chinese cabbage into shreds, cut it with hot water, and put it in the jar.
Sprinkle with salt and the sauerkraut will be ready to eat in just a few days.
Most of the family members in the entire compound came from the south to join the army, and they didn't know how to make pickled vegetables. As for the local Shanghong people in the city, most of them came from high-ranking cadre families, and they rarely even cooked rice, so how could they know how to cook it?
Submerged sauerkraut.
Sauerkraut stewed shredded potatoes. Zhang Guilan took out the soaked kimchi and mixed it with MSG, sesame oil and vinegar. She just waited for a while for the rice to be cooked and the vegetables were ready before eating. As for the East Room, she didn't say anything, maybe she kept it down on purpose.
Zhang Guilan didn't hear a word of the sound, but from the open door, she could see Luo Jijun standing at the window, and Milan sitting on the bed, lowering his head and still wiping tears.
Zhang Guilan didn't want to look at it, so she came out of the kitchen and went directly to the West House. Even if she decided to go back to her hometown, she had to prepare well, especially since she had lost a lot of weight in the past half month and it was obvious that she couldn't wear her previous clothes.
One thing to do is to change all the clothes.
Luo Jijun is the battalion commander of the reconnaissance company. He has ears and ears in all directions. Although he is comforting Milan, the other side of his mind has been paying attention to Zhang Guilan. As early as the smell of vegetables came from the kitchen, he smelled pickled cabbage. He really missed it.
.
Milan kept lowering his head and wiping away tears. He couldn't hear any movement for a while, so he secretly raised his head and asked, "Jijun, do you blame me for coming over to attack you?"
"Don't think too much, the work has been arranged for you, just go to work." Luo Jijun's words are still unchanged.
Milan bit his lip. He knew clearly that this was not the explanation she wanted to hear. Did he really fall in love with Zhang Guilan? Don't think that she couldn't hear it in the east room. She could hear that he cared about Zhang Guilan and wouldn't let Zhang Guilan do it.
Fan, the tall and handsome man in front of me was my own man, and he was snatched away by Zhang Guilan.
Who in the village didn't envy her before, but now they all laugh at her. There is a world of difference, the difference between clouds and mud, how can she be reconciled? How is Zhang Guilan better than her? She is fat, ugly, illiterate, and even more so.
My parents-in-law are quarreling, and I can’t choose anyone I like. It’s really unreasonable for me to marry a man like this. [Updated today, I’m sorry, I will definitely add more when I recommend it, and I have a baby.
You have to take care of it, don’t worry, I’ve saved more than 88 manuscripts, and I’ll have a chance to put them on the shelves, at least 10,000 updates every day. Hopes and dreams, hehe]
