Live it!

Zhou Ruoyu secretly felt relieved.

What kind of people are there in the military compound? Zhou Ruoyu was annoyed that her voice was a little too loud just now, and it was misunderstood by Captain Zhu in the next courtyard.

This time, Lu Qinchuan closed the door, went into the bathroom, put the washbasin in, and returned to the bedroom. His trouser legs were rolled up high, revealing his muscular calves, which were covered in hair, giving him a wilder look.

Quickly looking away, Zhou Ruoyu clenched and opened her hands, her hands hanging at her sides. The calm and sophisticated demeanor she had as a senior executive in her previous life was completely useless at this moment. While secretly cursing himself for being useless, Lu Qinchuan spoke:

"I'll sleep in the main room tonight, so you should go to bed early too."

Zhou Ruoyu nodded mechanically as if she had been pardoned. Seeing Lu Qinchuan closing the bedroom door from the outside, she breathed a sigh of relief.

She was not a three-year-old child. A young soldier in his prime was sleeping in the same bed with a young woman. Even if he was not satisfied with this marriage, something would happen anyway due to the physiological needs and desires of men and women.

From ancient times to the present, from cities to rural areas, people from all walks of life have been denouncing the feudal marriage system. Few people can truly remain chaste, and every one of them has given birth to five or six children. As someone who has seen pornographic films, what is there for her to not understand?

To get to the bathroom, she had to pass through the main hall, and it would be awkward for the two of them to meet. So she didn't go out to wash up. She took off her coat and lay straight on the bed, her mind full of random thoughts about her past and present lives. Finally, in a daze, she made a summary:

Now that I'm here, I, a country girl, have taken someone else's sweetheart's place, and I want Lu Qinchuan's protection. It would be too unreasonable to say they're just husband and wife in name only, but not in reality. Well, let's just take it one step at a time. At least he's good-looking and looks energetic...

Finally, I fell asleep in a lustful state, and when I woke up in the morning, there was still saliva on the corner of my mouth.

The sun was already shining through the curtains, and it was already bright. The main room was clean and there was no trace of Lu Qinchuan.

There was a sound in the yard. She opened the door and walked out into the already scorching sun. Lu Qinchuan was waving a hoe and shoveling the empty vegetable garden in the yard, hoeing the rows in an orderly manner.

Zhou Ruoyu leaned against the door frame and looked at him, her strong arms exposed in the sun shining. She had obviously been hoeing for a long time, wiping the sweat off her face with the back of her hand from time to time.

Company Commander Zhu next door was also taking a break. He stuck his head out to look around, then rested his arms on the wall. He slowly lit a cigarette and said with a forced smile, "The sun is rising from the west today, so why is Captain Lu still tending to the vegetable patch?"

Lu Qinchuan stopped, straightened up, frowned and said, "Old Zhu, you should be more careful with your words. The appointment letter hasn't come down yet, don't call me battalion commander."

"You, you still need a letter of appointment."

Captain Zhu took another long drag on his cigarette and slowly blew out smoke rings. "If you're good-looking, you're destined for a good life. I'm in my thirties, and I've been a company commander for many years. You, Lu Qinchuan, are already successful in both the battlefield and the love world in your twenties. You have a lovely wife at home and beautiful women outside. You're truly a winner in life."

Lu Qinchuan pointed at him and said, "If you keep talking nonsense, I won't let you go!"

Captain Zhu pretended to beg for mercy, but his tone was as sour as ever: "Okay, okay, I won't say anything more. You'll be my immediate superior soon, and you're the one favored by the niece of our military commander. I wouldn't dare to do that even if I had the guts."

Alas, Zhou Ruoyu sighed inwardly, if Lu Qinchuan and Su Hongmei were a couple, they might be promoted faster and go further.

It's not right to always occupy someone else's home. I still have to build up my network as soon as possible and make money by taking advantage of Luancheng's proximity to the capital. As long as I have the security to make a living, I can withdraw in time and help others.

She was folding her arms, thinking, when she heard Captain Zhu whisper to Lu Qinchuan in a greasy voice, "They say there are only cows that die of exhaustion, but no fields that are plowed to death. You've been plowing the fields all night, how come you're still so energetic? Teach me."

Lu Qinchuan gripped the hoe tightly and waved it at him: "Get out!"

Captain Zhu chuckled and retreated from the wall.

Lu Qinchuan drove Captain Zhu away and turned around to see Zhou Ruoyu, who was leaning against the door frame with her arms folded, looking at him.

Looking back at the wall, he realized that the conversation between Captain Zhu and him had just been overheard by this girl.

Feeling a little embarrassed, he coughed dryly and pointed at the hoeed land and said to Zhou Ruoyu:

"I see you're quite willing to grow these vegetables. Since we have a day off today, I'll help you tidy up the vegetable patch."

Zhou Ruoyu nodded, turned and went into the house, took out a towel and handed it to him to wipe his sweat.

Because Lu Qinchuan was at home, the courtyard door was wide open. Just as he was sweating profusely, the soldier who delivered food came, but he was accompanied by two uninvited guests.

Su Hongmei, wearing a red dress, stood behind the soldier and looked at Lu Qinchuan with a smile.

Zhou Ruoyu also knew the other person, Lu Qinchuan’s classmate, Lai Yunlong.

Zhou Ruoyu always felt that Lai Yunlong looked at her with a very unfriendly look. She searched through the original owner's memories for a long time but did not find any intersection with this person, but she just felt that this person had a great prejudice against her.

Lai Yunlong was the first to speak: "Old Lu, look who's here."

Lu Qinchuan looked up and saw several people. He first glanced at Zhou Ruoyu without any emotion in his eyes, then put down the tools in his hands and asked, "Why are you here?"

Su Hongmei's eyes were full of Lu Qinchuan. She walked to the front with confidence and said with a smile, "Old Lu, your house is the throne room, so why can't we enter? I heard that you got married, why don't you hold a banquet to treat us all to a meal?"

"We've been engaged since childhood, but now that the country is going through hard times, we won't have a wedding banquet. I'll bring some wedding candy tomorrow for everyone to share."

Lu Qinchuan's tone was indifferent, and his expression still showed no emotion.

Zhou Ruoyu thought for a moment and said with a smile, "Nurse Su, Platoon Leader Lai, don't stand in the yard. Come sit inside. The tea is ready."

Su Hongmei's gaze finally shifted away from Lu Qinchuan. It was not until today that she had the chance to take a good look at Lu Qinchuan, the country girl whom she had reluctantly married.

"Old Lu, this is your fault. No matter how difficult it is, you have to make sure the bride looks like a bride. At least she should wear clean new clothes."

Su Hongmei could not hide the mockery in her tone. When she stood with Zhou Ruoyu, anyone would think that she was the bride.

Zhou Ruoyu opened the sleeves of her rolled-up blue shirt and said with a smile, "We are already an old married couple, there is no such thing as a new bride or a new bride, the most important thing is to live our life."
