I relied on my heart to play badly in front of my husband, an officer.

"Battalion Commander's sister-in-law is here."

They stood by the roadside and waited for a while, and then the army supply truck arrived. The young soldier driving the truck sat in the cab and called out to them.

Sheng Zeyan pulled Bai Youyou into the car. The army supply vehicle was a large truck, and the back bed was filled with rice, oil, vegetables and cotton.

After Bai Youyou got into the car and saw the things loaded, she secretly pulled Sheng Zeyan's hand. Sheng Zeyan, who was originally talking to the young soldier Xiao Tang, turned to look at Bai Youyou and signaled with her eyes when she felt her hand being pulled.

Bai Youyou approached him and whispered in his ear:

"Husband, look at the back, there are not only rice, rapeseed and other crops, but also new cotton.

You said if we pay money and tickets, we can buy some cotton from your base. I wonder if that's okay?"

After Sheng Zeyan heard what she said, he turned his head and looked back, and whispered to Bai Youyou:

"These are all for the troops to use. The cotton is also used to make cotton-padded clothes and trousers for the soldiers. There shouldn't be any extra to sell to us."

After hearing this, Bai Youyou was just depressed for a moment, but then she immediately cheered herself up.

"Well, forget it if I can't buy it. The soldiers are more important."

Just as Sheng Zeyan and the others were whispering to each other, Xiao Tang spoke with a smile.

"Haha, it turns out our Captain Sheng also whispers with his sister-in-law! I thought you always had a cold face at home.

Sister-in-law, is our battalion commander serious at home? "

Sheng Zeyan glanced at him and said, "What are you thinking about, kid? Just focus on driving your car. What I look like at home is none of your business."

Bai Youyou looked at Sheng Zeyan lecturing Xiao Tang with a cold face, and suddenly smiled.

"He is usually very serious at home. He scolds me all the time. I don't even dare to speak loudly to him at home."

Xiao Tang was shocked. "Really, sister-in-law. This is how the battalion commander treats you at home. It's too hard for you to have to face his cold face every day."

Sister-in-law, let me tell you, many people in our battalion are afraid of the battalion commander's cold face. As long as we see his face turn cold, young soldiers like us will stay away from him.

We were afraid that he would catch us and take us for training. You know, if we trained with the battalion commander, he would beat us like a dog. Only the battalion commander Wu Gang from the first battalion could fight our battalion commander to a draw.

Sister-in-law, you should have met Captain Wu! Wasn't it him who drove you and the Captain back to the base when you first arrived at the army?

Bai Youyou thought about who Captain Wu was, and remembered that the person who drove them back to the army when she first arrived seemed to have the surname Wu.

"I should have seen him. But I only saw him once, and I haven't seen him since."

Xiao Tang drove the car skillfully while chatting with Bai Youyou:

"Oh! Him! He's not at the base these days. He's out studying.

Sister-in-law, our battalion commander was supposed to go, but because he would be away for half a year, he didn’t go.”

After hearing this, Bai Youyou turned to look at Sheng Zeyan and asked:

"Sheng Zeyan, why didn't you tell me about this? It's such a good learning opportunity, but you just gave it up like that."

Sheng Zeyan gently patted Bai Youyou's hand and said:

"You had just arrived and were not familiar with the place, and there were too many things to do in the camp, so I couldn't leave.

Besides, you can still improve your abilities by staying at the base. As long as you are good enough, it doesn't matter where you are."

Bai Youyou was touched, but still muttered:

"Next time there's an opportunity like this, be sure to tell me and we can discuss it."

Xiao Tang was listening to the conversation between the two people in front and laughing.

Not long after, the car drove into the base.

Sheng Zeyan jumped out of the car first, then reached out to help Bai Youyou down.

At this time, a group of new recruits gathered around and greeted Sheng Zeyan enthusiastically, but they looked at Bai Youyou curiously.

Sheng Zeyan felt everyone's gaze, coughed and said:

"This is your sister-in-law. Be polite from now on. Do you hear me?"

Everyone responded in unison, "We heard it."

Bai Youyou was a little shy and whispered to Sheng Zeyan:

"So many people are watching."

Sheng Zeyan took her hand and walked with her towards their residence, saying as they walked:

"Don't be afraid, they will protect you from now on."

Bai Youyou looked up at Sheng Zeyan's determined profile, her heart filled with happiness.

The new recruits had been at the base for over a month and had never seen Sheng Zeyan's gentle side. They were all surprised to see Sheng Zeyan walking forward holding Bai Youyou's hand.

The troublemakers who were usually scolded the most stared blankly at their retreating figures and said:

"This is our captain, Yansheng Shengze, the one who usually treats us like dogs. Baozi, pinch me and see if I'm dreaming."

The man called Baozi actually pinched the people around him, and while pinching, his eyes were still fixed on the backs of Sheng Zeyan and the others as they left.

"Does it hurt? Plum."

"It doesn't hurt. It seems like it was just an illusion!" Li Zi didn't feel like he was being pinched at all.

"Damn it, Baozi, first look at who you're pinching.

Let go first, it hurts so much, didn’t you want to pinch the plum? Why are you pinching me? Did I provoke you?

Baozi turned around and realized he had pinched the wrong person. He quickly let go and apologized, "Ah! Gangzi, I'm sorry! I pinched the wrong person. I thought it was Li Zi standing on my right. I didn't expect it was you."

"Damn, you have such a strong grip, it hurts so much." Gangzi complained while rubbing his red arm.

"Hehe, well, I used to be a sports player, so my hands need to be a little stronger. I'm really sorry." Baozi said with a chuckle.

"Oh! So that's it! Never mind."

The three of them's incident did not attract the attention of the other two. They were still talking about finding someone with relish.

"Don't you think the battalion commander is possessed by something? Look at how gently he speaks to my sister-in-law."

"It looks a bit like he's been possessed to me too. Hey! Does anyone know someone who's good at that? Ask him to come and see the battalion commander!"

"Yes! I do know someone, but he's a little far away, in our hometown! I can't come here right now!"

"The same goes for people I know back home."

Just as several people were discussing heatedly, veteran soldier Wang Dali passed by.

Hearing what the new recruits were saying, he couldn't help but knock one of them on the head. "What are you mumbling about, you little bastards? The battalion commander is just showing his affection for his sister-in-law. What possession? That's all nonsense."

Several recruits stuck out their tongues and said, "Brother Dali, we haven't seen the battalion commander act like that before."

Wang Dali also glanced at the person walking away and said leisurely:

"Not only have you never seen it, but we haven't seen it either. It was only after my sister-in-law came that we realized that our battalion commander also has a gentle and considerate side.

It's a good thing that you came this time. If he hadn't gotten married before, you would have been scolded even more severely by him.

Just like your seniors from the previous class, they were the ones who received the worst punishment. If you don't believe me, you can go ask your squad leader or company commander to see if what I said is true."

Several people wailed, "No way! He's even worse off than us. What kind of scolding would he get? I thought we were the worst off. I didn't expect there were people worse off than us. I suddenly felt much better."

Wang Dali looked at the excited people and said:

"Alright, hurry up and help unload the cargo. What are you doing here? You're talking about the battalion commander and my sister-in-law like that. I think you're getting pissed. Do you want me to tell the battalion commander and have him give you some slack?"

Several people quickly shook their heads: "Well, no, Brother Li, can't we go right away? Please don't tell Demon Sheng.

If you tell him, we will lose our skins.”

Wang Dali looked at the people who were shaking their heads with amusement:

"Okay, if you don't want me to tell him, you better act quickly, otherwise I won't be able to control my mouth."

"Yes, we'll go now." After saying this, they ran away.

Wang Dali looked at the person running away and laughed foolishly:

"Those little bastards are so bold! They even dare to give the battalion commander a nickname. Aren't they afraid that he'll find out?"

Sheng Zeyan took Bai Youyou to his rest area in the army.

Bai Youyou looked around and found that the house was very tidy.

Sheng Zeyan scratched his head, feeling embarrassed, "I asked the soldiers to clean up in advance."

After Bai Youyou knew the reason, she smiled and began to tidy up the things on his bed.

Sheng Zeyan looked at Bai Youyou's busy figure and felt warm in his heart.

He walked forward, hugged Bai Youyou from behind, and said softly, "Wife, you've worked hard."

Bai Youyou blushed slightly and said angrily, "What's so hard about this?"

At this moment, an emergency assembly whistle sounded outside. Sheng Zeyan frowned, let go of Bai Youyou and said:

"Wife, just stay here and don't go anywhere. I have to go out and take a look."

Bai Youyou nodded, "Okay, go ahead. I'll wait for you to come back, and then we'll go home together."

"it is good."

Sheng Zeyan rushed to the drill ground and found out that his superiors had issued a special mission exercise order. Sheng Zeyan quickly organized the soldiers and arranged everything in an orderly manner.

Bai Youyou felt a little worried inside the house, so she walked to the window and looked out. She saw Sheng Zeyan with a serious face, giving orders with a calm demeanor. His seriousness and focus made her admire him even more.

The exercise lasted for two hours and finally ended.

Sheng Zeyan returned to the room exhausted. Seeing Bai Youyou's worried look, he smiled and said:

"Okay, I'll finish the report and then we'll go home."

"Okay, I'll wait for you. Don't worry."

Bai Youyou hurriedly brought a glass of water. Sheng Zeyan took it and drank it all. The two smiled at each other.
