Chapter 23

When the three little kids returned home, He Hongxiu was digging in the yard. She was surprised to see that each of the little guys was holding a delicious pancake in his hand.

“Is your father back?”

“The group is eating pancakes today. Is there any good news?”

The second and third sons were busy eating biscuits and just shook their heads.

The eldest brother explained: “It was given by Aunt Jiang Yan. Aunt Jiang Yan said thank you for the food, and the pancakes are our hard work fee.”

“Jiang Yan?”

He Hongxiu was surprised, and the eldest brother handed the cake in his hand to her, “Mom, have a bite too, it’s delicious.”

He Hongxiu originally wanted to say “eat it”, but the pancake handed to her mouth was so fragrant that she couldn’t help but take a small bite.

“It’s actually meat patties. No wonder these two little guys don’t even talk.”

Looking at the satisfied looks of the children, He Hongxiu was deeply moved.

Jiang Yan is a really nice girl, a good person! This is not a festival, and there is no reason. Many families are reluctant to eat meat themselves, so why would they give meat pies to the neighbor’s children, and give them three at a time?

With a sigh, He Hongxiu continued to loosen the soil, keeping in mind what she had promised Jiang Yan.

I heard that he came from the city and probably doesn’t know how to farm. I have to finish the farming quickly so that I can help Sister Jiang Yan.

In the evening, He Hongxiu told Sheng Pinghua what happened today.

The couple’s favorable impression of Jiang Yan was raised to a higher level, and Sheng Pinghua’s impression of Lu Yunsheng became even better.

When Lu Yunsheng was injured during the mission, the doctor diagnosed that it would be extremely difficult for him to have children in the future, which was no different from being infertile. In order to compensate him, the regiment promoted him twice.

But now think about it, the ability that Lu Yunsheng has demonstrated over the years is fully worthy of his position and even better than that. After all, the group owes him.

…

Jiang Yan had no idea that her three meat patties were so powerful that they directly conquered He Hongxiu’s heart and even affected the regiment political commissar Sheng Pinghua.

At this moment, she was busy in the kitchen, heating up the afternoon pancakes so that they could be eaten when Lu Yunsheng came back.

With a squeak.

The wooden door of the courtyard was pushed open, and Lu Yunsheng’s long legs stepped in. Hearing some movement in the kitchen, he walked straight over.

“I’m back.”

Hearing the voice, Jiang Yan turned around and smiled gently, “Go sit in the living room for a while, it will be ready soon.”

Lu Yunsheng walked in directly, took a few steps to Jiang Yan, and frowned when he saw her making pancakes: “Why don’t you take a break? Didn’t I leave a note saying I would bring food back?”

Jiang Yan brought the plate in front of him, which contained freshly heated pancakes.

“I didn’t cook. This is a snack I made this afternoon. Try it.”

Taking out a pair of chopsticks from the cupboard, Lu Yunsheng picked up a piece of pancake and tasted it, and his dark eyes lit up instantly.

“Mm, delicious.”

“Your cooking skills are as good as those of the chefs at the provincial capital’s state-owned restaurants.”

Jiang Yan was very happy and scooped up the last piece of pancake. “I told you, my cooking is delicious.”

Lu Yunsheng nodded, and the lunch box in his hand suddenly no longer smelled good. His wife’s cooking skills were so good.

Taking out two sets of bowls and chopsticks from the cupboard, Jiang Yan held the fried cake in her right hand and walked towards the living room holding Liu Yunsheng’s hand with her left hand.

“Come back and eat later. I’m not busy and can cook every day.”

Being held by his wife’s hand, Lu Yunsheng’s ears blushed slightly, and he responded: “Okay, but I’m a little busy with training recently, so I can’t come back at noon. Come back to eat in the evening.”

“OK.”

The two sat down at the table.

Jiang Yan opened the lunch box that Lu Yunsheng brought back. Inside were three multi-grain steamed buns and a portion of stir-fried vegetables.

There is not a trace of oil on the vegetables, and if you don’t know, you might think they are boiled vegetables.

There are strict standards in the army. Each steamed bun weighs two taels. Jiang Yan ate one steamed bun and a meat pie and then could not eat any more. The rest was all eaten up by Lu Yunsheng.

After dinner, Lu Yunsheng put away his lunch box and went to the kitchen to wash dishes and boil water. Jiang Yan stayed by his side.

Lu Yunsheng said: “The marriage application has been approved.”

Jiang Yan was surprised, “So fast?”

Lu Yunsheng glanced at her from the corner of his eye and said, “The regiment has special matters to deal with. There will be a drill in a while and you can’t ask for leave.”

Jiang Yan planned: “Then let’s go get the certificate tomorrow. We have to transfer my food supply to you. After getting the certificate, we have to treat your leaders and comrades to a meal.”

“Who are you going to invite? Count the number of people so I can prepare and try to invite them before your rehearsal.”

Lu Yunsheng thought for a moment and said, “Just invite people from our regiment, a few company commanders I’m familiar with, a battalion commander of the same rank as me, and a few other officers, about twelve or thirteen people.”

Jiang Yan asked, “Are their family members coming too?”

“No.”

Lu Yunsheng explained, “The army now advocates frugality, so we can’t have a big celebration. But if you want to invite Sister Hongxiu, that’s fine.”

Jiang Yan thought about it for a while, “After we get the certificate tomorrow, let’s go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some meat and vegetables, and then treat everyone to dinner the day after tomorrow.”

“Ask sister-in-law Hongxiu to help me, and then it will be natural for her and the children to stay for dinner.”

the next day.

Jiang Yan got up early, and Lu Yunsheng also borrowed a car from the group.

Jiang Yan smiled and said, “You have to borrow cars from the group every other day. Won’t your boss have any complaints?”

Lu Yunsheng smiled indifferently, “I have a legitimate reason. The first day was to pick you up, the second day was to buy furniture, and today was to get a marriage certificate. Can the group still not let me get married?”

Lu Yunsheng’s self-righteous look made Jiang Yan laugh. She sat in the passenger seat and Lu Yunsheng started the car.

This time they were going to Zhanchuan City. Lu Yunsheng was an officer of the Zhanchuan Military Region. In addition, his rank was relatively high, so he could only go to the marriage registration office in Zhanchuan City.

During the three-hour journey, Jiang Yan almost dozed off.

I finally got to the marriage registration office, but there was a long queue outside. In this day and age, you have to queue up to get married!

Jiang Yan has learned something new.

In the era before she traveled through time, people had to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get married, but divorce required an appointment and queue.

Just as she was about to go and queue up, Lu Yunsheng took her into the registration office from another entrance. After showing her military officer ID, a middle-aged woman took them to a small room and enthusiastically registered their marriage.

Sitting behind the red desk, Jiang Yan was a little nervous. After all, it was the first time she got married in her two lives.

Although Lu Yunsheng looked serious, his palms were actually sweating.

The staff member looked at the two of them, explained with a smile that they didn’t need to be nervous, and asked Jiang Yan for a letter of introduction and household registration booklet, and asked Lu Yunsheng for a certificate from the army that agreed to their marriage and his officer certificate.

After verifying that the information was correct, the staff filled in the two people’s names and home addresses on a big red certificate.

After filling out the form, she looked at Jiang Yan and asked, “Once you get married, your marriage will be a military marriage and protected by law. Are you getting married and forming a family voluntarily?”

Lu Yunsheng nodded, then he looked at Jiang Yan, and Jiang Yan also looked at him and nodded with a smile.

With a snap, the staff member smiled and stamped the certificate with the official seal, “Congratulations, and happy wedding!”

“Thanks.”

Jiang Yan took the marriage certificate and took a look. Her name was on the top and Lu Yunsheng’s was on the bottom.

Seeing the two names on the certificate, Lu Yunsheng also smiled with satisfaction and pulled Jiang Yan out, “Come on, wife, let’s go shopping.”

As soon as they received the marriage certificate, Lu Yunsheng’s way of addressing her changed, and Jiang Yan looked at him in surprise.

Be good!

It seems that my cheap husband is not as innocent as he looks. Could he be a hidden big bad wolf?

At this moment, Lu Yunsheng was so happy that he didn’t even notice his wife’s inquiring gaze and a flash of surprise.

But it won’t take long for Jiang Yan to discover that her cheap husband Lu Yunsheng is a ferocious tiger with sharp teeth who is good at disguising himself as harmless.
