Fu Xueyao: "..." I really can't hold on any longer. She really appreciates this awkward chat.
Lu Xingzhou felt that he had never been so nervous, and the hand holding the phone trembled slightly.
This makes him even more anxious than when he is on a dangerous mission and facing an enemy.
Lu Xingzhou didn't know what to say at all.
There was only one thought in his mind at the moment, his wife's voice sounded really nice, which made him recall that exciting, confusing but wonderful night.
He suppressed the excitement deep in his heart and asked, "How are you doing at home?"
Fu Xueyao couldn't help but curve her mouth upwards as she recalled what happened these days: "It's good. Everyone in my family is very tolerant of me. I'm very happy."
Then Fu Xueyao's chatterbox opened up and she shared with Lu Xingzhou all the interesting things that happened in the past few days.
I have to say that Lu Xingzhou is really a good listener. He would not interrupt when Fu Xueyao was talking, but would only respond at the right place.
Listening to the relaxed and cheerful tone coming from the other end of the phone, Lu Xingzhou seemed to be able to feel her happiness at the moment. Unknowingly, Lu Xingzhou's narrow peach blossom eyes were also dyed with a gentle color.
"Did I talk too much and delay you?" Fu Xueyao, who realized that she had just spoken for a long time, asked tentatively.
"No."
After a pause, he continued: "I'm not busy now."
Hearing Lu Xingzhou's answer, Fu Xueyao couldn't help laughing.
After that, the two exchanged other words before hanging up the phone.
Fu Xueyao didn't expect that she could actually have a twenty-minute phone call with Lu Xingzhou.
At first she thought it would be over in two minutes at most.
So far, Lu Xingzhou was pretty good in her impression. He spoke in a moderate manner. Apart from being a little awkward at first, chatting with him was also quite relaxed and pleasant later on.
"Deputy leader?" Xiao Li, the operator, shouted strangely when he saw Lu Xingzhou still holding the phone after the call was hung up.
Lu Xingzhou's consciousness immediately returned, he put away the warmth he had shown during the phone call, and his brows and eyes quickly turned cold.
The door to Lu Xingzhou's office suddenly opened, and Lu Xingzhou, who was handling official business, raised his head.
"I heard that your wife called you today."
The person who came was his comrade-in-arms Meng He. He had a meaningful smile on his face and looked at Lu Xingzhou meaningfully. Then he casually found a seat in the office and sat down.
Lu Xingzhou glanced at him: "Do you have time for gossip and no time for training?"
Meng He shrugged: "Gossip is much more interesting than training."
He looked at Lu Xingzhou, who had been his brother for many years, with a curious look on his face: "I heard from Xiao Li that you always smiled when you called me, and even after hanging up the phone, you were still there."
"I'm really curious about what kind of person your wife is."
His brother was famous for not being flirtatious with women. For this reason, the organization arranged several blind dates for him, but Lu Xingzhou refused them all.
Meng He thought that his brother would end up alone in the future, but he didn't expect that he would suddenly file a marriage report and marry a wife.
He originally thought that Lu Xingzhou didn't like the wife arranged by his family, but the result was beyond his expectation.
Meng He was really curious about what kind of person could handle Lu Xingzhou.
"Xiao Li was also led astray by you. He only knows gossip every day."
Meng He did not give up and continued to ask: "Then tell me."
Lu Xingzhou broke out into a smile: "Want to know?"
Meng He nodded.
"Okay, now let's go out and compete. If you win, I'll tell you." Lu Xingzhou stood up.
A look of panic instantly appeared on Meng He's face. Who would compete with Lu Xingzhou with nothing to do? It would be fatal.
Meng He quickly waved his hand: "Forget it, I know you want to hide your little wife, so I won't ask you anymore."
After saying this, he quickly fled the scene. He was really afraid that Lu Xingzhou would force him to compete.
Who in this military region doesn't know Lu Xingzhou's reputation? No one can compare with him in terms of fighting skills or close combat.
Here Fu Xueyao hung up the phone and walked towards the supply and marketing cooperative. Today she was going to buy some meat and some ingredients for making pastries.
Seeing that Lu Xingzhou had sent her so many things, she also made something to send to him.
She had forgotten to ask Lu Xingzhou if he liked sweets just now. She would go home later and ask Mother Lu.
"Sister-in-law, why did you buy so many things?" Lu Zhiyun saw his sister-in-law carrying so many things and hurried over to take some of the things from her hand.
Lu Zhiyun exclaimed: "There is actually beef." And there is a lot of it.
Beef is much more precious than pork. Not only is it more expensive, but another important reason is that the portion is small. Generally speaking, you can't get it if you don't line up early.
"I was lucky today. When I went to the supply and marketing cooperative, I happened to have a few pounds left, so I bought them all back. I also bought a pound of pork."
"Sister-in-law, why did you buy so much meat?" Since my sister-in-law got married, the family has never been short of meat, because my third sister-in-law will buy meat from the supply and marketing cooperative every now and then.
"I'm going to make some jerky and pastries for your brother and send them over."
elder brother? After hearing his sister-in-law's answer, Lu Zhiyun's pink lips raised slightly, and a faint smile flashed in his eyes.
The sister-in-law was finally able to think about her brother. She had been terrified for the past month, fearing that such an excellent sister-in-law would become someone else's.
Now her mind has calmed down a little. The third sister-in-law cooking food for her brother shows that her brother still has a certain weight in her sister-in-law's heart.
Lu Zhiyun raised the corner of his mouth: "Sister-in-law is such a good cook. My brother will definitely like the food you make. Maybe his comrades will also envy my brother for marrying such a good wife."
Fu Xueyao was amused by her words: "When did your mouth become so sweet?"
"What does it mean to be sweet-mouthed? Everything I say is true."
Although she was suspected of touting, there was not a single lie in her words. These were all the truth.
Lu Zhiyun turned his head and looked at Fu Xueyao: "But sister-in-law, I still have a question."
"Just say whatever you want."
"Does all the jerky you make have to be sent to your brother?" Lu Zhiyun prayed in his heart that his sister-in-law would never say otherwise. She had never tasted the pork jerky and beef jerky made by her sister-in-law.
Fu Xueyao raised her eyebrows and chuckled. Lu Zhiyun had always been a person who showed his thoughts clearly. Although she didn't say anything, the expression on her face had completely betrayed her.
She didn't immediately answer the question just now, and said with a smile: "How often did I miss your portion when cooking?"
"One pound of beef and two pounds of pork will be used to make jerky. When the time comes, half will be sent to your brother, and the other half will be eaten at home."
Lu Zhiyun laughed happily: "Hey, I knew my sister-in-law was the best to me."
