◎Some people are just mean◎
The next day, the weather was sunny.
When Lu Jinzhou drove Dong Jiaojiao into the city, Lu Yao came to the camp to care for He Chengjun with a big meat bun she had made by herself.
Now that He Chengjun was divorced, the previous agreement that she was not allowed to come over to deliver food was of course invalidated.
Moreover, as a newly divorced man, it was when his feelings were empty, so Lu Yao naturally had to seize the opportunity to show off.
Originally, she wanted to come over yesterday afternoon to send warmth, but the cultural troupe had something to do, and she couldn’t leave for a while.
After she finished her work, Lu Ming came over and asked her to go home for dinner, so she didn’t even have time to come over to find He Chengjun.
He Chengjun was originally feeling a little unhappy because of the divorce.
However, this morning, the matter of his promotion was finally settled, and the discomfort was replaced by the joy of promotion.
From today on, he is Commander He, not Deputy Commander He.
It seems that Dong Jiaojiao’s promotion report has been stuck in the past.
How could it be that he had just finished the divorce, and then informed him that the matter was official?
He Chengjun was glad that he made the decision to divorce without hesitation, otherwise he would have been dragged down by Dong Jiaojiao.
Sure enough, if a man wants to make a great career, he must not look forward and backward.
It also shows how important a good wife is.
However, during morning exercises today, he heard people from the camp next door talking about Dong Jiaojiao.
It probably meant that he was going to be a matchmaker for Dong Jiaojiao, with a few words of ridicule thrown in between.
He Chengjun immediately darkened his face, thinking that Dong Jiaojiao must not want to go back to the countryside, so she was so eager to find a new home.
But this kind of non-stop search for a second love right after the divorce made him as a ex-husband very embarrassed, and it was no different from stepping on his face and rubbing it on the ground.
He Chengjun was so angry that he had a gloomy face all morning and the air pressure around his body was extremely low.
She didn’t even look at her identity. She was a second-married rural woman with a certain beauty. Did she really think of herself as a fairy?
He Chengjun believed that if Dong Jiaojiao really wanted to stay in the city, she should come and beg him.
Now that he is the battalion commander, if Dong Jiaojiao comes to beg him and promises not to mess around anymore, maybe he can consider it for the sake of being fellow villagers.
There are cases of remarriage after divorce in their army. It’s not that there is no such thing as one more person.
But now, Dong Jiaojiao found someone to be a matchmaker just after her divorce, and even stabbed him in the face.
He Chengjun reasonably suspected that Dong Jiaojiao did this on purpose, to retaliate against him or to provoke him.
To be honest, He Chengjun was indeed stimulated, but it was impossible for him to take the initiative to seek reconciliation.
He has a bright future, and there are many female comrades in the army who like him.
Now, Lu Yao from the art troupe came to look for him eagerly.
“Yaoyao, didn’t I say that you don’t have to bring me food in the future? It’s the same if I go to the cafeteria to eat.”
“He Dage, you were not divorced before, so you had to avoid suspicion, but now that you are free, we can interact openly and honestly. What’s there to be afraid of?”
Lu Yao pretended to be playful and cute, opened the lid of the lunch box, and said diligently:”He Dage, these are the buns I made myself. They have more fillings than those in the cafeteria. Please try them.”
He Chengjun just said it casually, but in fact he really enjoyed Lu Yao’s admiration for him.
Moreover, Dong Jiaojiao can find someone to act as a matchmaker. What’s the big deal if he eats a few buns from Lu Yao?
So, He Chengjun generously picked up a bun and stuffed it into his mouth, but his brows immediately wrinkled.
Why do the buns made by Dong Jiaojiao taste so different?
He Chengjun had eaten buns made by Dong Jiaojiao at Yang Hongwei’s house before, and the taste was still fresh in his memory.
Although the buns made by Lu Yao also use the best Fuqiang powder, the taste is completely different.
Moreover, she stuffed the stuffing too much and too tightly. It was a little cold when she took it all the way. The taste was naturally not as good as Dong Jiaojiao’s, not even as good as the ones made in the cafeteria.
He Chengjun couldn’t help but feel a little disgusted. It seemed that when it came to cooking, the charming young ladies in the city still couldn’t cook as well as the rural women.
But if he marries a virtuous wife and brings her back, isn’t it just to cook for him and take care of his children?
Lu Yao is not as good at cooking as Dong Jiaojiao, and she is not as good looking as Dong Jiaojiao.
He Chengjun suddenly felt that if he took Lu Yao as his partner, wouldn’t he be at a disadvantage?
He has already been married for the second time. It is impossible for him to get divorced again in the future, right? This is bad for his reputation.
The more He Chengjun thought about it, the more unwilling he became.
If he looks for her again, he must find a city girl who cooks better than Dong Jiaojiao, looks better than Dong Jiaojiao, and has a better temper than Dong Jiaojiao.
It’s best to be the kind that amazes everyone and makes Dong Jiaojiao feel ashamed and regrets divorcing him.
As for Lu Yao, in He Chengjun’s opinion, apart from having a better temper than Dong Jiaojiao, the other two points were completely not up to standard.
If it weren’t for Lu Yao’s good family background, He Chengjun wouldn’t even bother to talk to her.
Some people are just cheap. Before the divorce, they felt that the flowers at home were not as good as the wild flowers outside. After the divorce, they began to dislike wild flowers again.
After He Chengjun ate a bun, he didn’t want to eat it anymore. It tasted so bad that he might as well eat in the cafeteria.
“He Dage, why don’t you eat? There are three more. I made them specially for you. Every filling is full.”
Lu Yao didn’t know what He Chengjun was thinking and wanted to show off.
However, He Chengjun directly disliked it and said: “Yaoyao, you still need to learn how to cook more in the future. Dong Jiaojiao’s cooking is much more delicious than yours.”
Lu Yao’s hand holding the lunch box paused, holding back the unhappiness in her heart, and reluctantly He smiled and said: “He Dage, I’m sorry. Dong Jiaojiao is originally from the countryside. She has been cooking since she was a child. My mother usually cooks in our family, and I occasionally help out. Naturally, I am not as good as Dong Jiaojiao. However, He Dage, as long as you like it, I will definitely learn it.”
He Chengjun liked Lu Yao’s thoughtfulness, as if everything was about him, and he felt better.
So, he reminded Lu Yao a few more words before turning around and going back.
Lu Yao watched He Chengjun’s leaving figure. After turning the corner and losing sight of him, Lu Yao slammed the lunch box to the ground. The sturdy buns rolled out and were stained with dust.
Damn it, they’re already divorced, but he still talks about Dong Jiaojiao.
Why hasn’t he said this before? Could it be that after getting divorced, he thinks of the other person instead?
Could this be the connection between the male and female protagonists of the original book? They won’t remarry, right?
Lu Yao couldn’t help but feel worried, and the more she thought about it, the more scared she became.
She may not have the confidence to steal something, not to mention that she hasn’t stolen it yet.
No, she must find a way to completely cut off the possibility between them.
At this time, Dong Jiaojiao had already dressed up and was preparing to take Lu Jinzhou to find Lin Xiaoqiang.
“Director Lu, it’s not easy for me to beg for food. You don’t look like an ordinary person with your aura. My brother is timid. Please stand back and observe later and don’t go there, okay?”
Lu Jinzhou wanted to say, You have already come out, how can you be so timid?
However, Dong Jiaojiao begged him pitifully, looking like she was about to cry. How could Lu Jinzhou have any bottom line?
Even if she wanted the sun in the sky, he would have to imitate the ancestors and get that thing down for her to play with.
Seeing that Lu Jinzhou agreed, Dong Jiaojiao immediately smiled brightly, her eyebrows and eyes curved, like a kitten that had successfully stolen something.
But he didn’t realize that Lu Jinzhou swallowed hard when he saw her like this, and unconsciously clenched the palm of his hand into a fist.
Dong Jiaojiao was still secretly happy because she discovered that Lu Jinzhou was afraid of women crying.
It was not in vain that she had been thinking hard all night last night, this trick really worked!
When Dong Jiaojiao passed by, Deng Weidong happened to be there too.
When he saw Dong Jiaojiao, he was very surprised: “San Mei, didn’t you say tomorrow, why are you free to come here today?”
Dong Jiaojiao said in a pretentious manner: “I can’t help it, my eldest brother wants to come and have a look.”
With that, Dong Jiaojiao said Jiaojiao tilted her head in the direction of Lu Jinzhou behind her.
Deng Weidong immediately thought that the other party was testing his strength.
Looking at Lu Jinzhou, who is 190cm tall, his aura is terrifying even from such a distance.
As expected, he is a person who does great things, and he looks different from others.
Deng Weidong patted his chest and said, “San Mei, don’t worry, this side of the city is my territory. I also have ways outside the province, which will definitely satisfy you and eldest brother.”
“Second brother, actually yesterday, when you said you wanted to cooperate, I’m ready to agree, but there are some things I can’t decide. We have dealt with each other for more than a day or two. Don’t always use honorifics with me, you, you, you, it seems that we are not familiar with each other. ”
(Formal ‘You’ 您 (nín))
The main reason is that she is afraid that Lu Jinzhou will come and ask Deng Weidong on a whim.
She had been pretending to be pitiful in front of Lu Jinzhou. If he heard Deng Weidong address her as “you”, he would definitely become suspicious.
What did Deng Weidong have to disagree about? He wished he could get closer to Dong Jiaojiao.
“That’s right. It’s my fault. I call you San Jie, but San Mei is still so grand.”
(Third older sister)
“Second brother, I’m younger than you. You can just call me San Mei.”
(Third younger sister)
Hearing Dong Jiaojiao say this, Deng Weidong was even more happy. He called his San Mei affectionately, and for those who didn’t know, they would think they are brother and sister.
“Second brother, I’m just bringing my eldest brother here to have a look today. I’m not selling anything. However, if you have any other goods, I’ll come here and buy some for myself.”
This was also made for Lu Jinzhou to see. Pretending to be Deng Weidong’s subordinate, the main business is a three-way dealer who specializes in helping people sell goods.
In order to please Dong Jiaojiao, Deng Weidong immediately took out the good goods he had just collected yesterday.
“San Mei, I have a Plum Blossom watch here. It happens to be a women’s model. Do you want it? There are also two pieces of cotton. They are both high-quality and bright in color. San Mei, you can take them back to make clothes. They will definitely look good. ”
Dong Jiaojiao wanted them all, but Deng Weidong only took the purchase price, not even the industrial coupons or cloth coupons.
Dong Jiaojiao also understood the reason and promised to bring more goods to Deng Weidong tomorrow.
Deng Weidong rolled his eyes and saw Dong Jiaojiao was about to leave, and asked carefully: “San Mei, look, can I go over and say hello to eldest brother?”
Fearing that Dong Jiaojiao would be unhappy, Deng Weidong quickly added: “If it’s inconvenient, forget it, I just want us to be familiar with each other, there is no other meaning.”
Dong Jiaojiao felt that this was good, and it would dispel Lu Jinzhou’s doubts, so she warned, “Okay, second brother, please don’t talk about business matters. My eldest brother has a special status and is cautious. He never talks about this matter outside, for fear that the walls will have ears. ”
“I understand, I understand. Don’t worry. In our line of work, you must be careful to sail the boat for thousands of years. Brother is doing big things. People are naturally more cautious than us.”
Deng Weidong also noticed that the other party asked Dong Jiaojiao to come alone and stood far away, which was indeed cautious enough.
Lu Jinzhou was surprised when he saw Dong Jiaojiao coming with two people. Didn’t she tell him to go? Why did she bring the people over instead?
“Brother, these two are the friends I mentioned to you, Deng Weidong and Lin Xiaoqiang.” Dong Jiaojiao introduced.
When Lu Jinzhou heard Dong Jiaojiao’s name, he took a deep look at her, thinking that she was trying to take advantage of his power.
However, Lu Jinzhou was not angry. Instead, he felt that Dong Jiaojiao was very smart. No wonder she dared to enter the black market alone.
And Lu Jinzhou was very happy to support her.
