Quick Wear: The soft cannon fodder turns into a heartthrob and seduce

Seeing Mu Zhou's guilty and hesitant demeanor, Gu Huaiyuan instinctively became suspicious.

He frowned:

"to be honest."

Could it be that they've put some kind of potent drug in his system, waiting for another opportunity to poison him?

His face darkened.

Gu Huaiyuan is indeed handsome, but his strong features become even more sharp and intimidating when he frowns.

Mu Zhou shrank his shoulders slightly in fright.

She couldn't stand seeing him angry, so she quickly untied her bundle and showed it to him:

"I'm not kidding you, it really is just clothes."

Gu Huaiyuan took it with suspicion and actually checked it over.

Indeed, there were only two sets of patched clothes and the red wedding dress she wore yesterday.

He folded it and returned it to her:

"Why are you being so careful with just clothes?"

"This wedding dress is very expensive, and I like it very much."

She muttered to herself, and Gu Huaiyuan heard her.

His eyes flickered, but he said nothing more, letting her continue to hold him in her arms.

*

The train swayed for a day and a night, and in his drowsy state, Mu Zhou heard the announcement that the train had arrived at the station.

She quickly rubbed her eyes and tugged at Gu Huaiyuan's sleeve:

"Second Brother Gu, have we arrived at the North City?"

"Ah."

Gu Huaiyuan glanced down at her hand.

The next moment, he stood up and casually pulled out his sleeve.

As Gu Huaiwei took down his luggage, he also came over.

The three of them waited until almost everyone had left before getting off the train.

Once outside the station, there was a military jeep parked not far away.

The driver was a soldier. He saw Gu Huaiyuan and the other man stand up straight and salute. Then, he looked at Mu Zhou with a puzzled expression.

The three of them fell silent for a moment, and none of them spoke up to introduce Mu Zhou's identity.

Gu Huaiwei secretly observed Gu Huaiyuan's expression, while Mu Zhou lowered her head, not daring to look at him.

In the end, it was Gu Huaiyuan who spoke without any emotion:

"This is my wife."

"...!!??"

Although the soldier didn't speak, his wide eyes conveyed a great deal.

He swallowed hard and called out "Sister-in-law" in a dry voice.

Mu Zhou smiled and nodded:

"Hello, comrade."

Gu Huaiyuan first took Mu Zhou to the guesthouse.

"You stay here first, I'll apply for military dependents and wait for housing allocation."

"it is good."

Mu Zhou naturally obeyed.

Gu Huaiyuan was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something, took out a wad of cash from his mouth, and casually placed it on the table.

"Xiao Li will take you to the canteen, the grain and oil store, and the supply and marketing cooperative in a bit. Go and buy some food, clothes, and other necessities. We don't know how many days you'll be staying."

He finished speaking quickly, leaving without giving Mu Zhou a chance to refuse.

Mu Zhou looked at the small guesthouse and was quite satisfied.

There are tables, cabinets, and chairs.

It includes a basin and a kettle.

She took the basin, filled it with water, quickly washed herself, and then lay down to rest.

Around noon, Xiao Li knocked on the door.

"Sister-in-law, shall we go eat?"

Mu Zhou quickly got up:

"coming."

In the cafeteria, Mu Zhou looked around with curiosity.

Xiao Li's thorough introduction left Mu Zhou dazzled.

Although Mu Zhou was hungry, he was too embarrassed to eat too much. He saw what dishes Xiao Li had ordered and ordered the same, even taking half of what he ordered.

She always remembered that she was there to be Gu Huaiyuan's nanny, so how could she spend his money recklessly?

In the afternoon, Xiao Li took her to the supply and marketing cooperative again. Mu Zhou looked around and felt that she didn't lack anything.

When Xiao Li came, he brought her a new basin, as well as a toothbrush, towel, soap, etc., saying that Gu Huaiyuan had given them to her.

She felt she didn't need to spend any more money to buy anything.

Remembering the instructions, Xiao Li had no choice but to go and buy some steamed egg cakes, some fried dough twists, and fruit.

When Mu Zhou saw him take out money, he quickly returned the money to him, and was "forced" to buy these things.

Back at the guesthouse, Xiao Li didn't forget to say:

"Sister-in-law, the weather isn't that cold now, so things won't last long. You have to eat them quickly, or they'll spoil and go to waste."

Xiao Li could tell that his sister-in-law was very frugal and reluctant to spend money on food and clothing.

But Commander Gu also said that he was responsible for his sister-in-law's daily life, so he had to spend money "on behalf of" his sister-in-law.

Otherwise, when Commander Gu sees it, he might think that he didn't take good care of him.

Just as he was about to leave, he noticed Mu Zhou's faded coat and his patched trousers, which had already been washed and were hanging by the window. He cautiously reminded him:

“Sister-in-law, there are quite a few people in this family compound. You are Commander Gu’s wife, so you represent Commander Gu. I don’t mean anything by it, it’s just that…”

He hesitated for a moment, but still said:

“There’s a tailor shop next to the supply and marketing cooperative. Many people in the residential compound go there to get their clothes made. The prices are cheap. I think you can get two new outfits made.”

Xiao Li put it very tactfully.

Commander Gu took good care of him, and his sister-in-law was also very kind to him. When they were at the supply and marketing cooperative, she even insisted on buying him a small bag of apples.

He knew that the military dependents who had just come from the countryside to join the army were mostly frugal, and it was easy to tell from their clothes and other possessions.

Naturally, people will talk behind your back.

His sister-in-law was young and so kind and simple, so he thought it best to give her a word of advice to avoid her being ridiculed and upset by those people.

After a moment of stunned silence, Mu Zhou understood what he meant.

Her ears were burning, and she clutched at her clothes, saying awkwardly:

"Thank you for reminding me, Comrade Xiao Li. I'll go take a look in a bit."

"How about I go with you now?"

"That's great!"

Mu Zhou smiled, as if he had breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiao Li didn't dare to say much, afraid that his sister-in-law would be angry and think that he looked down on her.

But judging from his sister-in-law's expression, he knew she genuinely didn't mind and was very grateful to him, so he decided to take her with him.

Being in an unfamiliar place, it's inconvenient for my sister-in-law to be alone.

So the two of them went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy cloth, and then went to the tailor shop.

Just then, an elderly woman came to pick up the pants she had made for her child. Before leaving, she glanced back at the woman.

Isn't that Xiao Li? And that's his wife next to him?

Is this a visit to him?

Xiao Li was featured in the newspaper a while ago for his act of bravery, and almost everyone in the residential compound knows him.

But I haven't heard anything about him getting married?

Did you go on vacation recently and get married?

She glanced at it again.

I must say, Xiao Li's wife is really beautiful; she's definitely a village beauty.

Aunt Zhang loves to inquire about new things and loves to spread them.

She knew everything: whose wife had given birth to a son, whose wife had come to join the army, whose sister had been admitted to university, and whose brother had joined the military.

So by evening, everyone in the family compound knew that Xiao Li's wife had come to see him.

"Little Li's wife is really beautiful. Don't let her rural background fool you, her eyes, her small face, and her height are all top-notch, except for her darker complexion."

"I think I saw it too. Xiao Li has been taking his wife shopping all day today."

"Oh, it's so nice to be a young couple. Once Xiao Li gets promoted again, he can apply for family members to accompany him to the military."

Gu Huaiyuan, who was passing by, suddenly overheard this conversation.

He paused in his tracks.

When did Xiao Li get married? And his wife came to the military base?

Almost immediately he realized who the "Little Li's wife" they were talking about was.

His face darkened, and a sinister light flickered in his eyes.
