Chapter 143 Our Home (Part [-])
Lu Yujing wasn't there at noon, so Yu Ran simply ate a little, and stared at the ground in the yard after eating.

She thought that more than half of the entire yard could be planted with vegetables, and it would be convenient to eat vegetables at that time.

She went to Wang Wenxin's house to see, except for leaving a road for walking, other places were planted with vegetables.

It happened that she bought a lot of vegetables.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door, and Yu Ran hurriedly went to open the door, only to find Xiao Zhou standing outside, the orderly who drove to the train station to pick them up.

Yu Ran smiled, "Xiao Zhou, why are you here?"

Xiao Zhou wiped the sweat from his brow, smiled honestly, "Sister-in-law, Lu Gong asked me to buy some things, and I sent them over."

Yu Ran looked back, only to find that Xiao Zhou had brought a pot and a large water tank.

"Thank you, Xiao Zhou, come in and drink some water."

Yu Ran went to the kitchen and poured a bowl of cold water with a little sugar in it, the sweet one was more delicious.

Can also add a little sugar.

Xiao Zhou thought it was ordinary water, but he didn't expect it to taste sweet, so he smiled gratefully at Yu Ran.

"Sister-in-law, I brought the tank in, where do I put it?"

Yu Ran pointed to the eaves of the kitchen, "Just put it here."

Just the eaves cover the rain, so the water in the big water tank will not be drenched.

"Is it heavy? Let me help you lift it." Yu Ran saw that the water tank was so big, and it was a very heavy one made of porcelain, so she wanted to help lift it from behind.

"It's okay, sister-in-law, I can."

Xiao Zhou waved his hand, and walked over with a heavy shoulder. His steps were easy.

Yu Ran was surprised. The big water tank weighed about a hundred catties at least, and he moved it with ease. He really deserves to be a soldier. Even an orderly is so good, he can do everything.

"Xiao Zhou, how much is it? I'll give you the money."

This big water tank and iron pot feel like a lot of money.

Xiao Zhou wiped off his sweat, "Sister-in-law, Lu Gong has already given the money."

Yu Ran smiled, and brought him a bottle of hoisin sauce from the kitchen, "I just met you, so you can take it and eat it. I made this and it tastes good. Thank you for your hard work these few times."

The ones she sent were all from the family home. Xiao Zhou was not married, so he was not in the family home, but in the dormitory of the army.

Xiao Zhou was too embarrassed to ask for it, so Yu Ran forced it to him, "Take it, or I won't ask you for help next time."

That being said, Xiao Zhou took it.

The smile in his eyes became more sincere, "Lu Gong said that he needs two pots, so that it will be convenient for sister-in-law to cook."

"It's okay, sister-in-law, I will go to work first."

Seeing him walking away, Yu Ran ran to the kitchen to look at the pot that had been placed on the stove, feeling warm in her heart.

She never thought that the stoves here are all made of two pots, one big and one small. Last time, she only bought the big one, so cooking and frying can't be done at the same time.

Usually stir-frying first before cooking, the dishes are easy to cool.

It will be July soon, and the weather is hot, but when it gets cold in winter, it will be uncomfortable to eat cold dishes.

But the big iron pot is not easy to buy. I asked Wang Wenxin. I heard that the two iron pots in their family were bought by asking someone to say hello, so it took several months to buy them.

Yu Ran was worried, so she said in front of Lu Yujing that it would be nice to have two pots.

Unexpectedly, he remembered it.

When Lu Yujing came back in the evening, he saw Yu Ran's smile was particularly bright.

"What's wrong? So happy?"

he asked with a smile.

Yu Ran took him directly to the kitchen, "The pot you bought was delivered by Xiao Zhou just now."

"It's good as long as it's delivered. I was afraid that the pot would not be easy to buy, so I asked him to watch it carefully. I didn't expect to buy it so soon."

"Xiao Zhou is quite a real person," Yu Ran said.

I have contacted him several times, and although Xiao Zhou is an orderly, he is considerate and quick-witted.

"It's quite true. Last time I heard that Xiao Zhou's leader was very optimistic about him and would probably give him a promotion. Although he came from the countryside, he has a junior high school diploma. He went to the army two years ago because of his good performance. I studied in a nearby school for a year."

Yu Ran was surprised, "Then he is quite studious."

Lu Yujing smiled, "Yes, those who are eager to learn will never have bad luck."

There were not many highly educated people here, not to mention that Xiao Zhou went to junior high school and studied in the military academy for a year because of his good performance, which made him stand out from so many soldiers.

What's more, he himself is not bad in training as a soldier.

Hearing what he said, Yu Ran was quite happy for Xiao Zhou, "Then he doesn't have to worry about leaving the army and returning to his hometown."

Every year, many people here will leave the army and go back. Some are due to injuries, and some are about to leave the army because they have reached their age and have not made any achievements.

Although the training here is also hard, it is much better than going back to my hometown. At least there is enough food here, and there are allowances.

Lu Yujing looked at the pot, but it was still a bit uncomfortable to put it on the stove, "I'll go and make some mud to fix the stove."

Yu Ran looked at the two hens running in the yard, and helped him to shovel the mud together, "Make more mud, we will build a chicken coop later, by the way, will you do it?"

There were also some bamboo sticks in the yard, and she had nothing to do in the afternoon.

Lu Yujing smiled, "This is simple, I'll make one later."

"Yu Ran, you are too. I told you to take a rest, and you are always restless, but if your stomach hurts, don't do it anymore."

Seeing the bamboo sticks she chopped, Lu Yujing felt a little helpless.

I said it many times, but she never listened.

Thinking about making some brown sugar and red date tea for her later.

I heard from the doctor that it is good to drink more of this.

She doesn't like ginger so she doesn't let it go.

Although the effect will be worse, it needs to be recuperated slowly.

Yu Ran smiled mischievously at him, "Aren't I restless? After all, this is the home we will live in for several years in the future. It is empty, and I always want to fill it up with something, so it can be more cozy."

our home?

Hearing what she said, Lu Yujing's heart skipped a beat, and he became more serious with the action of splashing mud.

Looking at the house, his eyes softened a little.

Originally, he thought this was just a simple place to live, but because of her words, now he just feels that this place is a little warmer, and he really has a sense of belonging to home.

Thinking of returning home after get off work every day for the past two days, the corners of her lips rose a little.

So this is the feeling of home?

The two work together to make this home better and better.

Yu Ran found that Lu Yujing was in a very good mood tonight.

Even when she instructed Lu Yujing to cook, he made it a little more skillful.

And he was very patient, and even spread a layer of mats made of straw on top of the chicken coop to protect the hens from wind and rain.

After dinner, Yu Ran watched Lu Yujing put red dates in the pot again, and he was alert, "What are you doing?"

Thinking of the fear of being dominated by brown sugar and ginger water these two days, Yu Ran was a little desperate.

Lu Yujing looked at her and smiled, "Don't be nervous, I will put red dates and brown sugar instead of ginger. The doctor said you should drink it often to replenish your body. It seems that longan is also very good. Unfortunately, I went to the supply and marketing agency to ask about it. None."

It's a pity to say this.

And Yu Ran was already stunned.

She didn't expect that he would really remember it firmly.

Even without ginger, she doesn't want to drink it!

Forced to drink a bowl of brown sugar and red date water, Yu Ran looked at Lu Yujing in a wrong way.
