1970s: Hot wife accompanies the army, cold-faced rough man is not easy to tease

Chapter 104 Can she be a coward?
"Let's go."

As soon as Gu Qingye opened his mouth, Shen Zhongyun had already taken the bag and put it in the car.

"Captain, the accommodation has been arranged. Are you and your sister-in-law going directly to the family compound?"

Gu Qingye has not officially started work yet, but Shen Zhongyun has already called him the team leader. He is very motivated to work with someone he admires.

"If it's convenient, let's go to the post office first." Gu Qingye said.

Lu Youyou then remembered that they still had a bunch of packages that needed to be shipped across the ocean. They were sent ten days ago, and no one knew whether they had arrived yet.

The living area on Dongzhou Island is relatively concentrated. The post office and the pier are only separated by an intersection. There is also a school, a supply and marketing cooperative and a small clinic on this street.

Lu Youyou looked around along the way and found that the central area was not much better than the pier. It was mostly shabby. Fortunately, the lush plants everywhere made the island look lively.

A building with obvious foreign style in the distance caught Lu Youyou's attention.

"What is that place?"

Shen Zhongyun looked up and said, "That's a church. It was built by the French a hundred years ago."

It took Lu Youyou five seconds to digest this sentence. "Church", "France", "one hundred years", she didn't expect to hear such niche words in the 70s.

This church is so well preserved, and the streets are not covered with slogans like other places. Lu Youyou couldn't help laughing. Does this mean that the emperor is far away?
After another two hundred meters, the car stopped. If Shen Zhongyun hadn't mentioned it, Lu Youyou wouldn't have noticed there was a post office sign hanging on the side of the road.

Ten minutes later, the staff pushed out seven or eight large packages. Shen Zhongyun very experiencedly took out a hemp rope and tied all the things that could not fit in the car to the roof.

Seeing Shen Zhongyun busy climbing up and down and sweating, Lu Youyou felt a little embarrassed: "Sorry to bother you, Xiao Shen!"

If you don’t move, you won’t know how many belongings you have. Most of the things were collected by Gu Qingye and also sent by him. She didn’t know that the pile of things was so scary.

"It's okay, sister-in-law. I usually train with much heavier weights than this. I'm not tired at all."

As he said this, his gaze couldn't help but drift towards Gu Qingye. Captain, please don't misunderstand me. He has great physical strength. Please be sure to train him hard during training.

Gu Qingye stuffed the last bag into the back seat, turned around and caught Shen Zhongyun secretly looking at him. He raised his eyebrows. It was a good thing for a soldier to be motivated, but whether he could persist depended on himself.

The car started again, and the buildings outside the window gradually became sparse, and the green became more and more, until it turned onto an obviously maintained road.

The military garrison and residential area separate the two ends of Dongzhou Island. Few ordinary people come here. Except for this road, everything else is very pristine.

The last section runs parallel to the coastline. The water is incredibly blue, and the beach is so light-colored that even the deer can't see it all. Apart from the poor infrastructure, the scenery here is no less than any other resort.

"Captain, sister-in-law, we're here."

Lu Youyou was very surprised. The courtyard wall here was not a high concrete wall, but a white iron railing. There were several neat rows of bungalows inside, and the exterior walls were also painted white. At first glance, it was clear that there was a strong island style.

Further ahead you can see an entire coastline, with reefs in the distance and smooth sand nearby. No outsiders come here, and this area can almost be said to be exclusive to the family compound.

Although she didn't know what the inside of the house looked like, Lu Youyou was already very satisfied with the location and the scenery.

Shen Zhongyun drove the car to the third row, and the first small courtyard was the home allocated to Gu Qingye.

There are also three rooms on the front. The one on the far left is the smallest and is used as a kitchen. The middle and right ones are the living room and bedroom. There is also a very small utility room in the southeast corner of the yard.

The light was bright, the windows were clean, and it was also equipped with basic furniture. Everything was fine except for the bed. Lu Youyou didn't look at the utility room, but it was too narrow and small to be habitable, so her new home only had one bedroom and one bed!

"We have a lot of space here, so we built big houses. We can even partition off the living room and bedroom into two more rooms. Many families with many children do this. Captain, if you want to modify the house, just let me know. I'll get some people to do it in a day or two."

Lu Youyou was stunned when she heard this. It turned out that the decoration was not just rough, but the house type was rough, and she could build walls as she pleased!

She looked around both rooms and they were indeed spacious, twice as big as her previous room.

However, today, now, at this moment, there is still only one room and one bed, which means that she will have problems sleeping tonight again.

Lu Youyou's scalp tingled. It was already difficult for her to start a new life, so was it really necessary to give her these extremely "manly" tests one after another?!

God knew that she liked strong men, so he sent one directly to her bed. She had already hugged him in a daze yesterday. What would happen if she took a bite of him in her sleep tonight?

Lu Youyou unconsciously glanced to her side, and was unfortunately caught by the person involved. Even more unfortunately, she could see from Gu Qingye's eyes that the two seemed to be thinking about the same thing!

Lu Youyou stiffened her neck and refused to act like an ostrich. She had seen fifty years more of the world than Gu Qingye. Could she be a coward? No, she absolutely couldn't!
"Captain, if you need anything else, I can help you." Shen Zhongyun asked enthusiastically.

Gu Qingye said: "No need, thank you for your hard work today."

"It's not hard, it's what I should do!"

Shen Zhongyun was eager to clean the house inside and out, as he had too much strength to spare.

"report!"

A familiar voice came from the door. It was Cao Xiangdong who had hurried back.

He seemed to have adjusted his state and was no longer the forbearing and helpless young man on the road. He finally regained the temperament of a vanguard.

Cao Xiangdong took two steps forward and saluted: "Captain, sister-in-law, I'm here to help."

Someone was snatching the job that Shen Zhongyun didn't want to help with. Shen Zhongyun felt bitter but couldn't say it because he was a low-ranking official here.

"No, we have to gather early tomorrow morning. If you want to contribute, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

Gu Qingye rejected the enthusiasm of the two. Lu Youyou must be tired after a busy day, and she couldn't relax with outsiders around.

Cao Xiangdong and Shen Zhongyun had to say goodbye. Shen Zhongyun went to return the car, and Cao Xiangdong also had to return to the home that gave him a headache.

The first two rows of the family compound were reserved for company-level cadres. Cao Xiangdong and Wu Baozhu were also allocated a suite here after they got married.

As soon as Cao Xiangdong reached the intersection, he met Wu Weimin, the current deputy captain of the Niusi Zhange team, who was also the nephew of the division commander and the cousin of Wu Baozhu.

Wu Weimin glanced at the direction he came from and chuckled, "Xiangdong, have you met the new captain?"

Cao Xiangdong nodded without showing much affection, and even saluted and said, "Hello, deputy captain."

Wu Weimin's eyes turned cold for a moment: "I've told you so many times, just call me cousin. We're all relatives, why be so formal?"
