A well-behaved girl was deceived while searching for her husband; she married a childless military o

When the couple returned home, Qiao Lanshu hung her cotton-padded coat and other outerwear on hooks.

She was actually a little guilty because of Chu Liangjun's matter.

Qin Yuanzheng knew about Chu Liangjun, but he could only arrange for people to keep an eye on him; he couldn't do anything to Chu Liangjun.

Because Chu Liangjun did not do anything out of line.

However, Qiao Lanshu couldn't hold back any longer. All she wanted now was to kill Chu Liangjun, so she had to lure him into her trap.

She was afraid that if Qin Yuanzheng found out, he would think she was vicious and inexplicably wanted to harm an ordinary person who hadn't done anything.

This matter must not be known to Brother Zheng.

As she was thinking this, a large hand reached out, lifted her chin, and stared at her face: "What are you thinking about? Why didn't you answer me when I was talking to you?"

Qin Yuanzheng is a very clingy person. He immediately came over to ask her after not getting a response after just two sentences.

Qiao Lanshu quickly concealed her thoughts, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Qin Yuanzheng. She smiled and said, "I didn't hear you just now. What did you say?"

Qin Yuanzheng looked down at her and said, "I said, the waterproof cloth I washed this morning is dry now, and I've already laid it out."

Qiao Lanshu: "..."

Qiao Lanshu gave him a speechless look.

It's better not to say anything at all.

Qin Yuanzheng found her expression amusing.

He said, "I'm going to cook."

Since the two got married, they have been eating lunch in the cafeteria and Qin Yuanzheng has been in charge of cooking dinner when they come back in the evening.

It wasn't that Qiao Lanshu was unwilling to do it, but Qin Yuanzheng wouldn't let her into the kitchen or even get a kitchen knife.

He was worried that his young wife's hand would be cut by the kitchen knife, and that would leave a scar, which would be too unsightly.

He felt that his wife was well-maintained in every way; her hands were fair and smooth, slender like water onions.

Such beautiful hands are not meant for working; she was born to enjoy a life of luxury.

Qin Yuanzheng scooped out a bowl of noodles and took out two eggs, preparing to cook dumpling soup.

Since the beginning of winter, they have been eating Chinese cabbage and potatoes every day.

But there's nothing we can do; there aren't many other fresh vegetables to eat these days.

I can only cook cabbage in different ways: cabbage stew with glass noodles, cabbage dumplings, stir-fried cabbage with cured pork, cabbage, potato and osmanthus soup, stir-fried cabbage with vinegar...

Qiao Lanshu's favorite dish is still the stir-fried cabbage with vinegar cooked by Qin Yuanzheng.

It's tangy and crunchy, and incredibly refreshing and delicious.

Qin Yuanzheng stir-fried cabbage with vinegar again tonight.

I cooked a big pot of dumpling soup, steamed six multigrain steamed buns, and steamed two potatoes. I mashed them, mixed them with some pickled cabbage, and made a pickled cabbage and potato mash.

The simple meal was ready.

Qiao Lanshu looked at the large bowl of dumpling soup and her expression turned serious.

After all, last night's experience was so thrilling that she was still a little scared.

Qin Yuanzheng looked at her expression and immediately found it amusing.

How scared must the young wife be?

It seems that last night's incident really upset his wife.

He said, "I have to go back to the mine for a meeting tonight. You should rest well at home by yourself. I'll try to come back as soon as possible."

Qiao Lanshu was taken aback. She looked at Qin Yuanzheng, her expression somewhat disappointed: "Ah? You're going out to work tonight?"

Since they got married, the two of them have been together every night.

We've never been apart even once.

She's still a little unaccustomed to the sudden separation.

Qiao Lanshu immediately brought over the bowl, pulled up a small stool, and sat down right next to Qin Yuanzheng.

She leaned against Qin Yuanzheng's strong arm and whispered, "Then you must come back soon. I won't be able to sleep if you don't come back."

Seeing how clingy Qiao Lanshu was, Qin Yuanzheng felt a warmth spread through his heart. His wife was so obedient; he actually couldn't bear to part with Qiao Lanshu either.

On a cold winter night, you should be cuddling your wife on a warm bed.

But he couldn't skip tonight's meeting.

I heard it's about spies, it's very serious, and they need to send people to provide support.

Qin Yuanzheng had just gotten married, so he figured they probably wouldn't send him.

However, it is still unclear who will go.

Qiao Lanshu snuggled against Qin Yuanzheng's arm and said, "Then I'll wait for you to come back."

After finishing his meal, Qin Yuanzheng washed the dishes, put on his clothes and hat, and prepared to go out.

Qiao Lanshu saw him to the door. He kissed Qiao Lanshu on the cheek, ruffled her hair, and whispered, "It's cold in the hallway, you should go back now."

As he spoke, Qin Yuanzheng closed the door for her. Before closing it, he told her, "Lock the door and go to sleep. I have a key, and I'll open the door myself when I come back. You get some rest."

With that, he closed the door and turned to go into the stairwell.

Qiao Lanshu listened through the door as his footsteps slowly faded into the distance.

She returned to the house and looked at the empty space, feeling somewhat lost.

She couldn't sleep at all without Qin Yuanzheng by her side.

In the middle of the night, she got up, washed and hung up the clothes, and then swept, mopped and wiped the table.

I cleaned the house spotless, but had nothing else to do. I checked the time and it was only 11 p.m.

Qin Yuanzheng has not returned yet.

Qiao Lanshu then returned to the kang (a heated brick bed), placed a small oil lamp by the bedside, covered himself with a quilt, and then took out a middle school textbook to review.

Gradually, she fell asleep, after watching for who knows how long.

Qin Yuanzheng still hasn't returned.

The next morning, around 7 a.m., someone knocked on her door.

I don't know when Qiao Lanshu fell asleep last night.

They forgot to blow out the oil lamp, and it burned all night long.

Qiao Lanshu felt bad about wasting the lamp oil, so she quickly blew out the lamp and got off the kang (a heated brick bed).

When she looked at the small grandfather clock on the cabinet outside, she realized that it was already 7:30 in the morning!

She was startled. What was going on? A whole night had passed, and her brother Zheng still hadn't returned?

Just then, there was another knock on the door.

Qiao Lanshu's eyes lit up, thinking that Qin Yuanzheng had returned!

She quickly ran to the door and asked, "Who is it?"

Outside the door came the voice of Huang Erling, the neighbor: "Little sister, it's me, your neighbor!"

Qiao Lanshu quickly opened the door, and sure enough, Huang Erling was carrying a vegetable basket with fried dough sticks and fresh goat milk on it.

She handed Qiao Lanshu two fried dough sticks and a packet of goat milk, smiling as she asked, "Just woke up?"

Qiao Lanshu had gone to bed too late last night and almost overslept. She subconsciously took the breakfast Huang Erling handed her and hesitated before asking, "Sister Ling, what are you doing?"

Huang Erling said with a smile, "Last night, my husband Zhao came back and asked me to tell you that Commander Qin couldn't come back last night and is still busy today. He told you not to worry and specifically reminded me to buy you breakfast, saying that Commander Qin instructed me to. Steamed buns or fried dough sticks are fine, but you must buy goat milk because it's nutritious. You can take it back and eat it. I also have to go back to make breakfast for the kids; they have to go to school."

As she spoke, she took out her keys to open the door, saying, "Oh dear, the snow outside has all melted today, and the roads are all icy. It's so cold! You'd better wear more layers when you go out, and watch your step so you don't slip."

Qiao Lanshu, still seemingly half asleep, nodded and said, "Okay, I've got it all. Thank you, Sister Ling."

Huang Erling opened the door with a smile and said, "Your Qin Tuan really cares about you. He buys you goat milk to drink every day."

People here buy goat milk for pregnant women and children; adults generally don't want to drink it.

Milk ration coupons are required for both cow's milk and milk powder, but not for goat's milk in some places.

Because there are many sheep farmers here, and there are ranches around the city, goat milk is relatively easy to buy, but it is not cheap.

Qin Yuanzheng actually buys goat milk for his wife every day; he truly cherishes her like a child.
