Chapter 52 Why do I suddenly like sour food so much recently?

After the busy wedding feast, Shen Zhiyu began to research the job of a teacher. Gu Ye was surprised to hear her say she wanted to be a teacher. It was true that the army would arrange jobs for military wives who needed them, but most country wives would choose to work in the canteen or the breeding farm. One reason was that there were no requirements for working in the canteen or the breeding farm, as long as they were physically fit and could count, they could go. The second reason was that these places had some perks. Especially in the canteen, today they could sneak some flour, tomorrow some meat, a little bit here and there, and no one would notice.

 And the leftover food from the canteen, they couldn’t throw it away, so the canteen staff would usually eat it themselves. Those who worked in the canteen, weren’t they all rosy-cheeked and healthy? The most sought-after position was working in the canteen, many people would fight tooth and nail to get in. They had to queue up! A job like teaching, not only had high requirements, but also had no benefits. But Gu Ye thought about it. She even found chopping vegetables with a cleaver tiring, and he cooked most of the meals at home, he couldn’t imagine her working in the canteen. Teacher was good. Knowing that she wanted to be a teacher, Gu Ye went and asked around.

 Elementary school teachers needed at least a junior high school diploma, and Shen Zhiyu met that standard. He applied for her, and she just had to wait for the notification at home. Later, the leaders of the army school would conduct a review of her. This review wasn’t just about her teaching knowledge, but also her political ideology, psychological quality, and other aspects. Although the man was rough in some ways, he was very reliable when it came to serious matters, he was almost going to directly get the questions that would be asked during the review for her.

Shen Zhiyu had been reading books every day, so she was confident about her teaching knowledge. It was the other two aspects of the review that worried her. It wasn’t that her ideology wasn’t correct or that her psychological quality wasn’t good. But the army elementary school wasn’t like the village school nearby, the requirements for teachers were much stricter.

She pestered Gu Ye to train her. Gu Ye started by saying, “You should run every day, exercise around the school, and then the leaders will naturally see your performance.

” Shen Zhiyu: “……” This guy! Feeling guilty under his wife’s glare, Gu Ye cleared his throat and patiently told her how to answer some questions. He had been selected by the army to study at the military academy for two years and returned. He had his own opinions on these issues, and a set of systematic answers. Shen Zhiyu listened to his analysis, nodding and taking notes.

Halfway through, Gu Ye told her to digest the content first, then he picked up his teacup and took two large gulps of water. Shen Zhiyu silently recited what he had just analyzed twice, then suddenly looked up at him, her eyes wide, without saying a word. Gu Ye put down his teacup, feeling a little confused, “What’s wrong? Is it wrong?” “No.” Shen Zhiyu shook her head and suddenly said, “I just realized that you’re really handsome, you know everything, you’re amazing.

” These words. Shen Zhiyu spoke from the heart. Looking at his appearance and his usual behavior, she had always thought that Gu Ye was just a strong, simple-minded brute. Now she realized that his mind wasn’t simple at all. He was actually very smart.

But then again, compared to his strength and patience, many people were stronger than him, but he was the one who rose the fastest and was the most favored by the leaders. Gu Ye was completely uncomfortable under her sudden praise. His lips twitched, he frowned, suppressed it, and pretended to be serious, “Don’t get distracted when you’re studying.”

 “Okay!” This guy, he was about to laugh, but he was still pretending. The army was incredibly efficient. Just two days after the application was submitted, someone came to notify Shen Zhiyu to report to the army elementary school at 8:30 the next morning. The person was none other than Chief Huang’s wife, Wang Guizhi. When Wang Guizhi arrived, Gu Ye was cooking, and Shen Zhiyu was sitting at the table reading. Although the scene was warm, it felt strangely awkward.

This… wasn’t this role reversal? Normally, it was the woman who cooked and the man who read and worked? She felt strange, but she didn’t show it, and she walked into the house with a smile, “You’re reading a book, that’s perfect, I came here to tell you about this.” Seeing her come in, Shen Zhiyu quickly stood up, “Sister-in-law, you’re here, it’s so late, have you eaten?

” “Yes, I just finished eating and came out for a walk, and I happened to come here to tell you, it’s 8 o’clock tomorrow morning, report to the elementary school teacher’s office, and they will conduct some basic assessments. With your ability, you will definitely have no problem, but we should still prepare a little tonight.” Wang Guizhi was in charge of military wives in the army.

 Except for the incident of introducing Wang Jiajia to a partner, which had made people criticize her, she was usually very tactful in everything she did and said, and it made people feel comfortable. Her EQ and interpersonal skills were exceptional.

 “I understand, thank you, sister-in-law. I was worried that I wouldn’t get a response and was going to ask Gu Ye to help me ask, but you came tonight, and I can sleep soundly tonight.” “Haha, okay, I came to tell you this, get some rest, don’t be late tomorrow.” In the highly disciplined army, being late or leaving early was a big problem. Shen Zhiyu quickly noted it down and gave Wang Guizhi a plate of jujube cake she had made to take back.

“Jujube cakes are such a precious thing.” Wang Guizhi quickly pushed it back, but Shen Zhiyu directly stuffed it into her arms, “It’s not something expensive; these jujubes were brought back by Gu Ye when he went to collect firewood in the back mountain a few days ago, they’re free, take them, sister-in-law.” Hearing her say this, Wang Guizhi accepted it.

The smile on her face was even wider than before, “Okay, then I’ll take them back. I’ll bring the plate back tomorrow, my family sent me some seafood, I’ll bring it over tomorrow.” “I’ve never eaten anything from the sea, I’m getting a taste of your good fortune.” “Don’t say that, okay, you two are busy, I’ll go back now, no need to see me off.” She didn’t know how this jujube cake was made. It was smooth on the surface, she took a bite, it was sweet and sour, with a delicate texture, and it was quite appetizing. When she went back, Chief Huang was listening to the radio.

 Seeing her come back with a plate of food after going out, he asked curiously, “Didn’t you go to Gu Ye’s place?” “Yeah, try this, Xiao Shen gave it to me, she made it herself, it’s pretty good.” Chief Huang took a bite, it was sweet and sour, and it was indeed good.

 “You know, this Xiao Shen is really great, I haven’t seen such an ambitious woman in a long time. You know what she was doing when I went over? She was reading!” Chief Huang chuckled, “Didn’t you say you didn’t like her, and that Gu Ye would regret marrying her instead of Jiajia?” Wang Guizhi choked, “I didn’t see her in person then, besides, you know what Xiao Gu was doing, he was cooking! When will I get to eat food you cooked?”

 Chief Huang didn’t say anything. He would have to talk to Gu Ye about this, what was this man doing hanging around in the kitchen all day! Not long after Wang Guizhi left, dinner was ready. Shen Zhiyu had been busy studying for the past two days, and Gu Ye had been cooking dinner.

 They were having tomato and egg noodles for dinner. The sweet and sour tomato noodle soup was very appetizing, but after two bites, she felt it was a bit bland. She got up and went to the kitchen to add some vinegar. Gu Ye smelled the sourness in her bowl and his teeth started to ache, “Why do you suddenly like to eat sour things so much?”
