Military Marriage: Boss, my sister-in-law got beaten up again

At least if I want to eat white flour, it’s not so difficult in the countryside.

After dinner, Li Juxiang went home.

Gu Yao closed the door, boiled some water, took a bath, then went to bed and soon fell asleep.

The next morning, the brain has already formed a biological clock, and I wake up naturally around six o'clock.

Just as Gu Yao got up, there was a knock on the door.

Gu Yao rubbed her sleepy eyes and walked to the door. "Who is it?" she asked as she opened the door.

"Sister-in-law Xiao, it's me." Li Juxiang's voice came from outside.

"Huh? What's going on so early?" Gu Yao asked puzzled.

"It's not that I got up early, there's a new person coming to the compound, the wife of Platoon Leader Wu. What a coincidence, she went out on a mission, and the superiors asked me or someone else to go and pick her up. I thought you've only been here a few days, so let's go together to pick her up. We're in the same compound now, and if she's a nice person, we can play together in the future, and then we'll have someone to travel with when we go to the city," said Li Juxiang with a smile.

Gu Yao thought so too. She had only been here for a few days, so it would be nice to have a new friend. The others had been here for a long time, and she would not like them if they were all like that black-faced old woman.

"How are we going to get there? There may be a car from the army to pick us up. If we take a crowded bus, it will be so tiring," Gu Yao expressed her thoughts.

"Platoon Leader Wu gave the instructions to the troops. We have been told by our superiors that we will not be allowed to squeeze on the bus. Otherwise, what will happen? There will be a car to pick us up. People will arrive around noon. After we finish breakfast, a car from the troops will come to pick us up in the morning," Li Juxiang said enthusiastically.

Gu Yao nodded and said, "Okay, then you can call me when the time comes."

It's morning now, I have to make something to eat. After all, I just got up and haven't washed up yet.

After Li Juxiang told Gu Yao everything, she went home to cook.

In the morning, Gu Yao simply ate some pickles and cooked some rice porridge, which tasted extremely sweet.

It's just right according to your own appetite.

The small pickles were already at home. Gu Yao found them in the vegetable cupboard. They should have been the small pickles that Xiao Zaiye used to prepare his own meals when he was at home.

Pickles are also a must-have food for every household.

In the late 1960s, people had less to eat and everyone had limited rations. When there were no vegetables in the winter, they could only eat pickles.

Even in summer now, we may not be able to eat pickles every day. There are many people who cannot even afford black bean porridge.

This era is indeed relatively poor. Historically, it would take until the early 1980s for the current predicament to improve.

In the early days of the founding of the country, there must also be a process to ensure that the people have enough food.

Gu Yao ate a steamed bun and some pickles, which lasted until noon.

Because I took weight loss drugs, I wasn't very hungry, so I only ate to fill my stomach and maintain basic energy. Even if I didn't eat, I wouldn't be very hungry.

Gu Yao looked at herself in a small mirror on the wall. Her jawline had taken on some contours, and the fat on her stomach had obviously decreased a lot. The firming drugs she had taken had a tightening effect on her body as she lost weight, and she didn't feel any loose flesh at all. This was what made Gu Yao happiest.

I simply cleaned up my face, applied some medical skin care products, and gently patted my face. Although I had a chubby face, my skin was still as good as ever.

Gu Yao looked at herself in the mirror and said, "I don't know what I'll look like after losing weight. It's really worrying."

I am fat now, but you can tell that I have double eyelids. I just don’t know whether it will look better or worse if I lose weight.

With the blessing of double eyelids, it shouldn’t look so bad.

Gu Yao said this while touching her face.

After admiring herself for a while, Gu Yao returned to her bedroom and changed into a set of clean and refreshing clothes. She felt that the clothes had become much looser, and it seemed that the clothes could immediately show whether she had lost weight or not. However, she would have to change them when she returned in the afternoon.

After changing her clothes, Gu Yao left the yard and locked the door.

I walked to Li Juxiang's house next door and saw a jeep in front of her house. There was an unfamiliar person sitting in it. I didn't know which soldier he was.

Gu Yao smiled and nodded at the driver, and the driver got out of the car and saluted to her.

Gu Yao walked into Captain Qi’s house next door.

There was chaos in the yard.

Several naughty kids are playing in this yard.

Li Juxiang chased the children and said, "Da Zhuang, take them all out to play. Mommy has to go out for some work and won't be at home. Go play in the open space outside."

"Mom, my friends and I are playing for a while. You can just go and do your own thing. We can play by ourselves at home." Da Zhuang is having fun now and doesn't want to leave the yard to go somewhere else.

Li Juxiang saw that Gu Yao had already come over, and was looking at the naughty child in the yard who refused to leave, so she said, "Okay, okay, you guys play here, just don't make trouble." As she spoke, she locked the door to the main room.

Lock the food in the house.

It's not that Li Juxiang is stingy. Even in the staff housing compound, there are all kinds of people. Even if she doesn't want to think too badly of anyone, this naughty kid is still young. Even if he took her family's food, she can't say anything. At most, she can just beat him up.

Food is so precious at home now, and all the pots, pans, and utensils at home were bought with money and coupons, so I don’t want them to be damaged at all.

After packing up his things, he handed the key to Da Zhuang and said with relief, "Sister-in-law, let's go."

Li Juxiang said as she was about to hold Gu Yao's arm.

Gu Yao is now very fat and afraid of heat, so she gently raised her arm and said, "Juxiang, you see how fat I am. I feel very hot when I move a little. I sweat all over when I move. If you hold my arm, we will be like two steamed pancakes stuck together."

Li Juxiang felt embarrassed in her heart, and she knew that she was fat, but she seemed to look better these days than when she came. She didn't know if she had lost weight or she had gotten used to seeing her. "Sister-in-law, doesn't this make you look closer?" Li Juxiang chuckled.

"Juxiang, since I came to this compound, you are the only one who treats me the best. It seems that everyone else is avoiding me, or maybe they don't look at me well. We are all nodding acquaintances. We are not just neighbors, I also treat you like a sister, so I can tell you whatever I want to say, don't mind it," Gu Yao said what was in her mind.
