Chapter 6

“The East is Red, the Sun is Rising~”

The beautiful melody and the loud children’s voice quickly attracted Su Wan’s attention.

Rows of white buildings come into view, a five-star red flag flutters in the wind, and the five big words “Dongzhu Nursery School” come into view.

Seeing this, He Nanfeng explained:

“This is Dongzhu Nursery School. Residents on the island can send their children of school age here to study. Children from our military family compound also study here.

To the east is the nursery school, to the north is the primary school, and to the right is the junior high school campus under construction.”

As for the high school campus, space has been reserved, but there is no sign of construction starting yet.

Therefore, He Nanfeng did not introduce him.

“I see.”

Su Wan nodded. It seemed that Dongzhu Island still cared about education and did not neglect it.

“arrive.”

Uncle Wu shouted, and the ox cart stopped by the roadside.

Su Wan got off the ox cart lightly, and after standing firmly, she began to look around carefully.

Right in front of us stands a two-story building. Compared with the adobe and brick houses seen along the way, this building has a modern feel.

Looking around, the ground under my feet is very flat, paved with brand new cement roads, and looks clean and tidy.

Along both sides of the road, you can see many clusters of brightly colored flowers, which are carefully planted together to form a colorful sea of flowers.

A breeze blows by, and the fragrance of flowers fills the air, making people feel relaxed and happy.

Looking further away, there are many tall and straight coconut trees near the guesthouse.

The branches of these coconut trees are hung with heavy fruits, each one large and round.

However, perhaps because of the distance, the coconut trees viewed from here do not look as huge as imagined.

At this time, He Nanfeng also jumped off the ox cart nimbly. He walked quickly to Su Wan, stretched out his hand and carefully helped his fiancée get off the cart.

Seeing Su Wan looking around curiously, he smiled slightly and did not disturb her. Instead, he turned around and silently took the two suitcases and a bulging sack from the ox cart.

Then he took out the fare from his pocket, handed it to the driver, Uncle Wu, and said:

“Uncle Wu, thank you for taking this trip.”

Uncle Wu took the money, a simple smile appeared on his face, and he said:

“Captain He, you’re so polite! I’ll take it.

If you need any help in the future, just come find me at the dock!”

He Nanfeng smiled and nodded, and replied:

“Okay, thank you, Uncle Wu. Take care!”

After saying this, he stood there until he saw Uncle Wu driving the ox cart farther and farther away, then he looked away.

“I’ve already submitted the marriage report, and it will take a few days for the political review. I live in the dormitory building now, so it’s not convenient for me to take you there.

I’m sorry to bother you to stay in the guesthouse tonight. I’ll take you to choose a house in the afternoon.

After renting the house, I will take a day off tomorrow to help you decorate it.

After the political review is finished, we will go get the marriage certificate and then I will move.”

He Nanfeng briefly explained his plan, held his breath, and waited for his fiancée’s response.

“good.”

Su Wan agreed to this suggestion. Finding a house to live in is not something that can be done casually.

It takes time to choose a house, and it takes time to decorate it.

It’s not okay to move in hastily without having anything.

Just like that, she followed He Nanfeng with empty hands.

The two of them entered the guesthouse, one in front and one behind.

Go through the formalities, explain the situation, and verify your identity.

He Nanfeng was the one who paid the rent and got the keys.

People who can work in a guesthouse have strong eyesight.

With a smile as bright as spring breeze, he led Captain He’s fiancée upstairs and into the room.

He Nanfeng didn’t linger, put down his luggage, and went downstairs to wait for his fiancée.

“Comrade Su, the hot water is in the water room on the first floor. You can go there anytime if you need water. The shower area is in the bathhouse at the back of the first floor. There are also separate shower rooms, and there are signs to remind you.”

“Thank you very much.”

Su Wan took a quick glance at the room. It was about 15 square meters. There was a bathroom of about four or five square meters near the door. It had a flush tank toilet but no bathing function.

After politely dealing with the other party, she closed the door, went to the toilet first, and after satisfying her physiological needs, she opened the window a little to let in some air.

Then they went downstairs to look for He Nanfeng. They decided to have lunch first and then go look for a house…

The guesthouse has an excellent geographical location, with convenient access to all directions. The roads have been repaired, which is much better than the yellow mud pit roads that Su Wan saw along the way.

There are restaurants and supply and marketing cooperatives on the island, but the prices are quite high. The goods there are a few cents, a few dimes, or even a few dollars more expensive than those outside the island.

There’s no way around it, things are valuable because they are rare.

Fruits are cheap on the island, and He Nanfeng said seafood is cheap too.

Look, coconut chicken, braised sea fish, and steamed eggs with clams are not cheap if ordered in state-owned restaurants outside.

But here, it is very cheap, only half the price outside.

But a bottle of orange-flavored soda costs one dollar!

It’s only two or three cents outside!

Su Wan fantasized, if she transported the soda directly to the island and sold it, could she make a small fortune by profiting from the price difference?

“Try this drink! My comrade said his girlfriend loves it!”

He Nanfeng smiled, pried open the bottle cap with a deft movement, carefully inserted a straw, and then gently poured the bottle of slightly cool, emittingThe fragrant orange soda was handed to his fiancée Su Wan.

“Thanks.”

The corners of Su Wan’s mouth rose slightly, revealing a sweet smile.

From the time they met a few hours ago to the time they spent together now, He Nanfeng had always been a gentleman, caring and considerate to her, which made her very satisfied.

Her master said that when choosing a man, one should not only look at his face and waist, but also his emotional value.

“You’re welcome. This is what I should do.”

He Nanfeng looked at his fiancée tenderly, his eyes and brows revealing a tenderness as gentle as water.

Those who are familiar with him know that he is in an especially good mood at the moment and is in a relatively relaxed state.

Su Wan gently picked up the bottle and took a sip of the orange-flavored soda elegantly.

The moment it enters the mouth, a familiar taste spreads across the tip of the tongue, which is not much different from what I have tasted in later generations.

But after just one sip, she put the soda back on the table.

“What’s wrong? Don’t you think it tastes good?”

Seeing this, He Nanfeng hurriedly asked with concern, his eyes full of worry and confusion.

“I’m not used to the taste of bubbles, but this is very expensive. If you don’t mind, since I’ve had it before, could you help me finish it?”

Su Wan shook her head. It wasn’t that it didn’t taste good, but that it was too sweet.

Her master warned her that chefs must protect their taste buds and avoid consuming foods that are too sweet or too salty.

“My pleasure.”

He Nanfeng understood and took note of it silently.

His fiancée is frugal, so he has to stop his extravagant habits in the future.
