Chapter 117 The Noisy Girl
Chapter 117 The Noisy Girl
"It's not appropriate to take this out now. I wanted to give it to you after your wedding, but now that brat is out on a mission and we don't know when he'll be there, and you have to go back to H Province, so you can't wait until the wedding. I have to give it to you now. This pair of bracelets was passed down from my family to our daughter. They are good things. You keep them. Sooner or later you'll be able to wear them openly. They are beads. You're going back alone, so it's easy to keep these bracelets. Don't let them cause you any trouble."
This was a wedding gift, and it was given by the elders, so Su Zhuzhu couldn't refuse. He Qiaojin also told her that when he was a child, he was brought up by Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu for a long time, just like his elders, so Su Zhuzhu didn't act pretentiously.
"Thank you, aunt and uncle. I will keep such a valuable gift carefully. Don't worry about its safety. I know what I am doing and I guarantee that nothing will go wrong."
Mrs. Liu was so happy to see Su Zhuzhu accept it so readily. She was most afraid of those pretentious girls who kept pushing and refusing and whose thoughts were hard to figure out. It was so tiring. Her own children were still the best. Look at Zhuzhu, that brat really brought a treasure home.
Chief Liu, who was late for a meeting today, saw his wife chatting happily with He Qiaojin's wife as soon as he entered the door. She didn't even notice him coming in, so he quickly coughed twice to remind his wife.
"You are so old and you keep coughing all day. If your health is not good, you should go to the army for morning exercises tomorrow to exercise. Otherwise, how can you bear to cough all day long?"
Liu feels that his wife no longer loves him. Is it really because he is old and has lost his charm? Why is he disliked as soon as he returns?
However, Chief Liu's attention was soon diverted to the gifts brought by Su Zhuzhu.
My goodness, there are 6 bottles in a box. The bottles are the same as the ones that Zhuzhu brought him last time. There are also two boxes of tea. They are good tea. He brought a box to the army last time, and a few old guys who knew the value of the tea took away a lot of it. Before he left, they even asked him if he had any more.
What is this girl doing today? She brought so much at once. What if his wife thinks it is too much and confiscates it and refuses to give it to him? He has to think of a way. He has to get some at least.
Just for these good things, Chief Liu realized that he must not confront his wife today, and he had to make her happy, so he did not respond to her words, but sat next to her with a smile on his face.
"Girl Zhuzhu, why did you suddenly come here today and bring so many gifts? Did He Qiaojin go on a mission and encounter any problems? If you encounter any difficulties, you must tell me. He Qiaojin is not at home. You can't hide something from others. We are all your elders, so we must not be polite."
When Su Zhuzhu saw Chief Liu coming back, she stood up to greet him. When Chief Liu also sat down, she sat down with him. Her etiquette and rules were exactly followed, which made Chief Liu and his wife nod their heads repeatedly.
The He family has found a good daughter-in-law. It's really good! I haven't seen such a lovely daughter-in-law in all these years. If she wasn't He Qiaojin's daughter-in-law, I don't know how many people would secretly want to poach her.
"Uncle Liu, I'm fine. I live in the army. What could possibly happen? If there are any difficulties, I will definitely go to the army to help, hehe!"
"Well, that's right. A person's ability is limited. If there is something you can't solve, you must know how to seek external help."
"Alright, alright, you're the only one who has a lot of great ideas. You start preaching as soon as you come back. Zhuzhu is so outstanding and smart, why does she need your teaching?"
Chief Liu made up his mind to coax his wife into submission today.
"Yes, yes, my wife is right. But my wife, I'm hungry. Do you have any food left for me?"
Madam Liu rolled her eyes in displeasure.
"It's on the table, go eat it yourself. By the way, Zhuzhu is here to say goodbye. Zhuzhu plans to go back to H Province. She will take the train tomorrow!"
Chief Liu, who had already turned around and walked two steps, turned around again and walked back to sit down. This time his expression was a little more cautious.
"Girl, are you really going to leave and go back to H Province alone?"
Su Zhuzhu knew that Chief Liu and his wife were worried about her.
"Uncle Liu, don't worry. I came here alone, so I'm not afraid. I have a high sense of security. In addition, the army gave me a certificate to buy a ticket, and the train staff will also take care of me when the time comes."
"You are such a pretty girl and you are so young. No, I have to call the train station and ask them to take good care of you along the way. When you arrive safely at the educated youth station, remember to call your Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu. Only then will we feel at ease."
Su Zhuzhu would definitely not push it away if there was a convenience. Besides, this kind of thing was a trivial matter to Chief Liu, and the effect would be much better than any proof from the troops.
Chief Liu was not in a hurry to eat at this moment. He went straight to the study to make a phone call. He came out in a few minutes and told Su Zhuzhu that everything was arranged. It was still the train for tomorrow afternoon. He reserved a sleeper ticket for her, which was next to the police room on the train. The staff on the train would also pay extra attention to Su Zhuzhu's safety. The travel conditions would definitely be worse, but Chief Liu believed in Su Zhuzhu. This girl didn't look like a squeamish type.
After finishing his work, Chief Liu went to eat. As soon as he sat down at the table, before he had time to open the lid on the dish that was keeping the food warm, a small cup of fragrant wine was placed next to him.
Chief Liu looked up in surprise. Oh wow, it was actually brought to him by his wife herself. Didn’t the sun rise from the west today?
"What are you looking at! This is a reward for you. You did a good job. The journey is not short. Someone is here to take care of you so that you don't have to worry all the way. But if you don't want to drink this wine, don't drink it!"
That was too much! Commander Liu quickly grabbed the wine glass in his hand.
Mrs. Liu couldn't bear to see this guy being so shameless for a few sips of wine, so she didn't bother with him and turned around to talk to Su Zhuzhu.
As it was getting late, it was not appropriate for a little girl like Su Zhuzhu to stay any longer, so Mrs. Liu urged Su Zhuzhu to leave quickly before it got dark. Although they were all under the jurisdiction of the army, there was still some distance between them, so they would feel more at ease if she left early.
Su Zhuzhu didn't expect that Aunt Liu would be willing to drive her away. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She wasn't that delicate and treated her like a child!
But the elders had good intentions, so she just followed their lead and rode back. She had already eaten a full dinner, so she rode back to help digest the food, giving her time to go home and tidy up.
When it was time to clean up the house, Su Zhuzhu couldn't help feeling sad again. This was her and He Qiaojin's first home. Every bit of it was decorated by He Qiaojin according to her preferences. It was full of their sweet memories, the fun of the two of them playing in the kitchen, chatting in the yard, studying and reading in the study, and the smiles they exchanged while eating together. These few days left an eternal memory in Su Zhuzhu's heart.
Walking into the bedroom, scenes of them embracing each other sweetly and sleeping with their necks intertwined in the past flashed before her eyes, as well as those passionate and ambiguous moments they had spent late at night. She instantly felt like she couldn't stay in the bedroom any longer.
After being accustomed to living with someone else, Su Zhuzhu found the nights when she slept alone so lonely. Tonight, she finally realized what it felt like to be lonely in the boudoir.
They were just newlyweds and were extremely passionate about their relationship, but suddenly they separated. Su Zhuzhu thought that He Qiaojin would probably feel a little uncomfortable with it, but he was a man and had a mission to accomplish, so he might be able to endure it better than she did.
Patting her face, Su Zhuzhu encouraged herself.
"Don't think too much. A short separation is for a better reunion. Su Zhuzhu, you also have a lot of things to do. Cheer up and clean up the house first!"
After adjusting herself, Su Zhuzhu cleaned up her and He Qiaojin's home very efficiently. She took off the sheets, quilt covers and other things and threw them into the washing machine to wash and dry. She took out a set of sheets from the space first and replaced them with clean ones tomorrow morning. There was not much other things that needed to be washed, and it took less than an hour to finish cleaning.
Seeing that it was getting dark outside, Su Zhuzhu thought for a while and took out a bag of lavender seeds and a small climbing rose from the space. She first planted the rose by the wall on the left side of the area where she originally planned to rest, and also planted one at the gate of the courtyard.
It’s a pity that I don’t know when they will come back. If it takes too long, I may have to let them climb on their own.
Without thinking too much, Su Zhuzhu scattered the lavender seeds all over the yard. Seeing that the wall was quite high and the lights next door had been turned off, Su Zhuzhu turned off the lights in her yard and living room, took a water hose with a sprinkler from the space, and quickly sprayed the seeds and seedlings with water in the dark, then quickly put the things back into the space.
Seeing that there was nothing else to tidy up, Su Zhuzhu went back to the house. She was too lazy to boil water and went straight to the space to take a bath. This time she came out as soon as she was done, for fear of falling asleep again.
I fell asleep after tossing and turning in the second half of the night, but it seemed like I hadn't slept long when it was time to get up.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Su Zhuzhu patted her face and said, "Don't dwell on the past. Come on, Su Zhuzhu!"
The next day, Su Zhuzhu got up early, washed, and tidied herself. After having breakfast, she locked the gate, looked at the yard for a few more times, and then rode her bike and set off.
I didn't bring much luggage, so I just carried a bag for the sake of appearance. I took out whatever I needed on the road from the bag. Anyway, no one would know that I took it out from the space.
Fortunately, I went out early, the sun was not hot, and there was a cool morning breeze. I rode a bicycle on an empty road. There were green meadows on both sides of the road, tall trees in the distance, and golden sunlight. This early summer was incredibly beautiful.
Su Zhuzhu felt very regretful. She had not yet ridden this road with He Qiaojin and seen this scenery, and she had to leave. She didn't know when the next time would be.
When I rode to the end of the road, I saw a familiar sentry post.
Su Zhuzhu got off the car and pushed the bicycle over. She gave some instructions to the young soldiers on guard duty and asked them to help her ride back to the army. She would then give the bicycle to Captain Qiao of the Third Regiment. She also asked the young soldiers to pass on the keys to her house so that He Qiaojin could get the keys and go home as soon as he returned.
The young soldier agreed politely and helped push the bicycle behind the sentry post and parked it.
Just as she finished explaining this, a gray bus appeared on the bumpy road ahead. A figure leaned out of the window from a distance away and waved at Su Zhuzhu vigorously.
No need to guess, you know it must be Wang Fenfen.
Su Zhuzhu said goodbye to the young soldiers, waited for the car to stop, opened the door, and got in.
It was indeed Wang Fenfen. She was afraid that Su Zhuzhu would not get in the car, so she grabbed Su Zhuzhu's arm and lifted her up. Her strength was really terrifying.
Before she could stand firmly, Su Zhuzhu was suddenly hugged by Wang Fenfen and couldn't help jumping in the car.
Su Zhuzhu quickly stopped Wang Fenfen's silly behavior.
"Fenfen, Fenfen, calm down, the car is moving. If we don't sit down, we will both fall!"
"Ah! I can't..."
"Oh!"
Huh! Su Zhuzhu let out a long breath and finally pulled Wang Fenfen into the seat. Fortunately, she sat down. As soon as she sat down, the wheels fell into a big hole. The whole car was shaken up and fell back into the seats. If they were standing, they would definitely fall. This stupid girl wanted to hug her. Fortunately, she was quick to pull the person down.
This time Wang Fenfen stopped struggling and finally calmed down. The seats on this bus were small and hard, so the two of them sat close together.
In fact, Wang Fenfen is the most experienced in this kind of road condition. She runs on this route every day, so it is impossible that she has not gotten used to the bumps. She was just too excited to see Su Zhuzhu.
Wang Fenfen traveled back and forth on this route every day, but never met Su Zhuzhu. It was obvious that Su Zhuzhu had never come out during this period and had been staying in the army.
She went to work with great anticipation every day, got on this train, and got off disappointedly to go home. Today, she finally met Su Zhuzhu, and it would be strange if she wasn't excited.
In this way, Wang Fenfen kept chattering to Su Zhuzhu about recent events along the way, and asked Su Zhuzhu how she was doing in the army, why she was going back alone, and why her husband didn't see her off.
Su Zhuzhu felt a headache after hearing this, so she quickly changed the subject and asked about asking her brother to help transport the hot sauce to the army.
Wang Fenfen thought it was something else!
She didn't take it seriously. She went home and asked her brother for help and explained the handover process to him. She didn't care about anything else at all, as her brother would figure it out anyway.
Su Zhuzhu knew that this girl was spoiled to death, so she quickly asked if she knew how much the transportation fee was.
Who would have thought that Wang Fenfen didn't mention this matter at all. Her friend asked her for help, so she felt she should help. Why would she charge money? It would be so hurtful!
Su Zhuzhu was really impressed by this girl.
I asked carefully about where Wang Fenfen's brother worked. After thinking about it, I realized that it was not far from the train station and my train was in the afternoon, so I might as well go find Wang Fenfen's brother first and get the matter done first.
