MTL - Seventy Couple’s Daily Routine-Chapter 1 Bai Yueguang
Before getting on the supply ship from Yangcheng to Yazhou Island, Lin Wei never thought that she would get seasick.
Her family lives by the riverside. When she was a child, she often took a boat with her mother to the other side of the river to play. At first, her mother would buy a seasickness pill before getting on the boat, but she never used it, and she stopped buying it later.
And when they came, they also took the ferry for half a day. From Shicheng to the provincial capital, it was faster to take the river road. At that time, she had nothing to do, and she could still hold the child after disembarking.
Who would have thought that not long after the boat started in the morning, Lin Wei started to vomit, and she didn't eat much at lunch and dinner, and she would be lying on the bed, hands and feet soft.
Thinking of going ashore tomorrow afternoon, Lin Wei couldn't help sighing.
"Still suffering?" asked Zong Shao, who came in from outside with two lunch boxes.
Lin Wei shook her head: "It's okay, where have you been?"
Zong Shao walked to the canopy bed where Lin Wei was lying, opened the lid of the aluminum lunch box, and said, "I see that you haven't eaten much for dinner, so I borrowed a pot from the cooking class to cook some porridge."
They were on a military supply ship, and the troops had strict military discipline. Unless there were special circumstances, food was not provided outside the three meals, and it was not acceptable to open a small stove to eat.
But Lin Wei was only a family member of the army, and it was the first time she went to sea. She was very seasick, so Zong Shao's borrowing a pot to cook for her was not discriminatory.
Lin Wei was really hungry. After vomiting for a day, all she vomited was sour water, and there was nothing in her stomach. But she had no appetite, and looked up lazily.
Knowing that she was uncomfortable, Zong Shao opened the lid and brought the lunch box to her, and showed her the porridge and pickled cucumber sticks in it, hoping to arouse her appetite.
The porridge is ordinary white porridge, which is not thick, but it is also not clear and watery. The pickled cucumber strips are green with a hint of yellow, and garnished with a little red pepper.
"Where did the pickled cucumber sticks come from?"
People in the Lingnan area are generally light in taste, and the food served on the supply ship also follows local tastes. She didn't see a single chili for lunch and dinner.
"It's also taken from the cooking class. It's usually eaten with porridge in the morning." Seeing Lin Wei's movement, Zong Shao took out a spoon from the table next to him and handed it to her along with the lunch box.
Lin Wei was not pretentious, she reached out and took the lunch box and spoon to eat.
After the porridge is cooked, let it dry for a while, and the temperature will be just right for drinking, and it will be very soft. The cucumber strips are as sour, spicy and crispy as Lin Wei imagined, just two words, porridge.
While she was drinking porridge, Zong Shao turned to look at the two brothers lying on the other bed.
Regardless of how young the brothers were, this was the first time they had taken a boat to go out. They were better than the mothers. None of the seasickness pills prepared for them were useless, and they all entered Lin Wei's stomach.
And because the uncles of the People's Liberation Army were all on the boat, the brothers were always in a state of excitement after getting on the boat.
After tucking the quilts for the brothers, Zong Shao sat back by Lin Wei's bed again, but he didn't mean to speak.
The two got married in the early 1970s. It has been four years and three months since then. They have two children. It is reasonable to say that they should have a deep relationship, but in fact they are really unfamiliar.
They had an arranged marriage. The two met only twice before they got married. The first time was a blind date and the second time was an engagement.
After marriage, he didn't get along for a long time. In four years, he returned to Shicheng twice, once when she gave birth to two brothers, and once when his mother died. And these two times combined, he did not stay at home for a month.
This is also the reason why Lin Wei came to join the army. Although she has no expectations for love and doesn't mind spending a lifetime with Zong Shao, there is still a difference between being a guest and a stranger.
Husbands and wives who respect each other like guests can live well, but the marriage of strangers is difficult to last.
It's just that Lin Wei didn't expect that even if they got acquainted, her marriage with Zong Shao would not last long, because apart from life and separation, there was also death.
Three days ago, on the train from the provincial capital to Yangcheng, Lin Wei had a dream.
It was also through that dream that she realized that she was living in a chronology.
But she is neither the heroine nor the supporting actress, and she doesn't even make an official appearance in the novel. However, she is not unknown, because her husband Zong Shao is Bai Yueguang who the heroine could not ask for, and she—
It is the white moonlight of the white moonlight.
She and Zong Shao were married, and the husband and wife were loving, but after her untimely death, he missed her all his life and never married again.
The above is the introduction about Lin Wei in the original work.
When she just woke up from her dream, Lin Wei wanted to cry every time she thought of these words, not because she was moved, but because she was frightened. Anyone who wakes up and realizes that he has only one year to live will not be in a good mood.
But three days later, she has calmed down.
At first, although this dream looks very real, it is not known whether it is true or not. Anyway, Lin Wei feels that the description of her in the novel is wrong in the first half. She doesn't know how much she and Zong Shaoneng love each other in the next year, at least In the four years since they were married, she didn't feel how much they loved each other.
Second, if the dream was true, she would really die soon. Lin Wei felt that since God gave her a glimpse into the secret, she might not find a chance to change her life against the sky in the future.
Three to be happy is a day, fear is also a day, if she must die, she also hopes that the last memories she left to the children will be happy.
It's just that she thinks so intellectually, but emotionally, it's hard for Lin Wei to be happy.
Seeing her eating and eating and then sighing, Zong Shao said, "The food on board is limited, just wait until you get off the ship tomorrow."
Lin Wei came back to her senses, knowing that Zong Shao had misunderstood, she shook her head and said, "I'm not sighing for this."
"why?"
Although Lin Wei really wanted to find someone to discuss why she had that dream, she didn't know where to start when she thought about it, mainly because it was too bizarre, and she seemed too stupid to sigh for it.
So she swallowed the porridge in her mouth and said, "It's nothing, it's just a little uncomfortable to stay on the boat for a long time. What time do we arrive tomorrow?"
"It is estimated that two or three o'clock in the afternoon."
"How far is it from the pier to where we live?"
"Walk for ten minutes," Zong Shao recalled the speed of Lin Wei's walking, and paused for a moment.
Thinking of her son's short legs, Lin Wei nodded: "That's not far."
Obviously, Lin Wei didn't realize Zong Shao's tactful behavior in the past. It's not that she didn't realize it, but that she never felt that she was walking slowly. Although she doesn't walk as fast as Zong Shao, but after all, the height difference is here, she would go to play with her colleagues when she was at work, and she was the fastest.
Lin Wei ate two mouthfuls of porridge and asked again, "Then what is our house like? Can you see the sea in the yard?"
Zong Shao nodded first, then said, "It's just an ordinary brick house, with two floors, two rooms upstairs, and the living room and bathroom downstairs. The kitchen and toilet are all outside. Well, there's a sun deck on top of the kitchen, I'll come back. There are two ropes in front of me to hang clothes."
Lin Wei thought that this house was not ordinary at all.
Her home is in the countryside, the house is not small, but there is no separate kitchen, only a stove is set up outside, not to mention the toilet, the public toilet has to be used outside.
After marrying Zong Shao, she moved to her mother-in-law's house. She lived in a more relaxed place, but the toilet was still shared, let alone a separate bathroom, so don't even think about it.
Therefore, just listening to Zong Shao's description, Lin Wei felt that the house was good, and couldn't help but feel a little bit of anticipation in her heart.
But then she remembered that Zong Shao had said that the kitchen and toilet were covered, so she smiled and said, "You spent a lot of time building the house, right?"
The Sanlin Base was established in the early 1950s. In the early days, there were few people, and there were not many family members who came to accompany the army.
Now that 20 years have passed, not only the number of soldiers in the fleet has doubled, but also the family members of officers who are of sufficient rank to accompany the army several times, which has also led to repeated expansion of the family area.
At present, the houses in the family area are basically divided into three types. One is the old houses built in the early 1950s. These houses are basically behind the family area, and it is not convenient to access.
One is the row houses built in batches in the late 1950s, with two to four households sharing a yard, but with good planning, there is a kitchen, a yard and a toilet in the house, and it is more convenient to enter and leave the family area.
The last type was also built in batches in the late 1950s, but it is also a single-family house. The house is large and has a yard, most of which are close to the sea, and the scenery is good. However, this house is for leaders, and there are grade requirements for occupancy.
Therefore, Zong Shao, who is just enough to go with the army, actually has the first two kinds of houses to choose from.
Among the first two types of houses, row houses are more popular. After all, the houses are newer and more comfortable to live in. So when Zong Shao applied for a house, the row houses were already full, and he could only choose the old houses.
Of course, for officers who live in old houses, the troops are not without compensation at all. After the houses are settled, they will receive a subsidy for house repairs.
After all, the house has been dusty for a long time, and the previous owner took good care of it. If you encounter someone who is not so cherished, it is still a problem whether the house can be lived in.
But officers who live in older houses are either thinking about possible job transfers in the future, or plan to move in when the townhouses are vacated, and most don't want to spend too much money on repairs. Therefore, at most, they will whitewash the main house and repair the broken windows. Anyway, it will be enough to live in.
But Zong Shao felt that since he wanted to live, he should make it better, so that the family would live more comfortably, so he brushed the inside and outside, changed the original kitchen into a bathroom, and then added a kitchen and toilet in the courtyard .
Because of this, Zong Shao went back to pick up Lin Wei two months late after he made the application to join the army.
However, Zong Shao is not the kind of character who needs to be known to everyone when he does something, he just said in a flat tone: "It's okay."
Lin Wei snorted and asked casually, "Then how much did you spend on building this house? I'll write down the account after I get off the boat." This is the most important thing.
When she first married Zong Shao, he was already the deputy company commander, and the navy was subsidized for going to sea, adding up to more than 60 per month. In the past four years, he has been promoted from deputy company to deputy battalion, and his salary has also risen from more than 60 to about 100.
He didn't have any expenses in the army, and most of his salary was sent back, and the rest was saved before it was used up. It was considered private money, which was the default of the couple.
Although Lin Wei unconditionally stood by her mother when Lin's mother strictly forbade Lin's father from hiding money from private houses, but after marriage, Lin Wei felt that this matter should be treated in special circumstances.
Zong Shao doesn't talk about other aspects, her character is still very reliable, and she is not the kind of person who spends a lot of money, so she is very loose in terms of private house money.
...She wouldn't admit that Zong Shao's salary is high due to her loose control. In addition, the husband and wife are separated, so his salary is not transparent to her. She is afraid that the strict management will make people anxious and cause chickens to fly.
Facts have proved that Zong Shao is indeed a reliable person, and he has not spent the money he saved for his private house. Except for the army subsidy, the rest of the money for building the house is from Zong Shao's private house.
However, although the money didn't come out of Lin Wei, it was still necessary to put it in the account, and she could have an idea in her heart.
Zong Shao didn't intend to hide it, and said the number.
Lin Wei was stunned: "Total?"
Zong Shao: "Expenses after subsidies are considered."
Lin Wei: "…"
Her mother is right, men shouldn't have private money! :)
