Red Red

Chapter 4

The room consisted of two single bunks covered in pale blue sheets, separated by a thick wooden desk and a window.There are curtains hanging on the windows, revealing the hazy moonlight outside the windows.Except for the bed and a few cabinets, there are no other extra hanging decorations in the room. It looks very neat and clean.

Although it is not as good as the bungalow that I lived in before, it is already the best residence for the current simple living customs.

After Jiang Weidong closed the door, he winked at the bed he slept in: "This bed is mine, you can sleep in that one." Then he walked to the bed, took off his shoes, and turned over and lay down on it.

He also wore a white baggy tank top and army green shorts.Because he is in the period of growing his body, his skeleton is very long. Although he doesn't have much flesh on his body, his legs are strong and slender. He must be a tall man in the future.

Seeing that he was going to sleep, Shen Ju'an also shook his two thin arms and climbed onto the bed, spread out the quilt that was folded like tofu cubes, and covered himself.

Jiang Weidong turned to look at him, and said: "The wind on the island is very strong, and it usually blows when you are sleeping. Don't be afraid." After finishing speaking, he cast a sarcastic look at him.He saw that Shen Ju'an was usually shy and silent, his appearance was handsome and delicate, and his two watery eyes were always full of ignorance.He felt that Shen Ju'an should be a crying sissy.

Through the yellow light, Shen Ju'an saw the way he looked at him, and although he felt uncomfortable, he could only swallow his anger and accept it peacefully.Simply lie down obediently, and sleep first before talking.

But the light falling on the beam of the room was really dazzling, Shen Juan stood up carefully and looked at Jiang Weidong, and asked in a tentative tone: "Do you want to turn off the light?" After getting up and going over, I could only ask in wonder.

But the other party didn't intend to turn off the light, buried his head in the quilt and said, "It will turn off by itself in a while."

Just when Shen Juan still couldn't figure out the meaning of what he said, the light bulb flickered suddenly and turned off.

This...is definitely not a supernatural event.

Jiang Weidong poked his face out of the quilt, and said in a hoarse voice: "The electricity on the island is under the control of the headquarters, and the switch is turned on at nine o'clock every night. Just get used to it."

"Oh..." Shen Ju'an glanced at him again, and was about to close his eyes and lie down, when the other party suddenly said: "By the way, if you want to think about the night at night, the flashlight is on the table, and the chamber pot is under your bed." After a pause He added: "If you think the smell is unpleasant, you can move it under my bed."

Shen Juan smiled wryly and said: "No..." After thinking about it, he said: "Thank you, Brother Weidong!"

As soon as the words fell, Jiang Weidong straightened up suddenly, and asked in a serious voice: "What did you call me just now?"

Shen Juan was shocked by this shock, and stammered back: "Wei...Brother Weidong... Aunt Su asked me to call..."

"Don't call me brother in the future, it's weird. Call me head, head Jiang!"

"..."

"Oh, head..." Shen Ju'an murmured in his heart, what is his name, he really doesn't understand these island children.

Jiang Weidong was very satisfied with his title, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Well, go to sleep!" Then he fell on the pillow.

Shen Ju'an looked impatient, so he hugged the quilt and fell asleep.

The sun rose slowly the next day, and the sea was foggy, and the sea was neither clear nor turbid.Early in the morning, there was a row of women with towels on their heads, pulling fishing nets and walking towards the coast.

The island is where the army is stationed, and there are continuous horn sounds every day, starting at six o'clock until the lights are turned off at night.

People who are used to it don't think there is anything, but for the mother and son of the Shen family, it is undoubtedly the most distressing existence.

Zhang Xian is more comfortable with bed, and when he arrives in a strange place, he needs to be familiar with it for a while before he can adapt.So I couldn't sleep well at night due to insomnia, and after I finally fell asleep for a while, I was disturbed by the noise of the hateful horn.

She dragged on the bed until after seven o'clock before she threw off the quilt and got up with two dark circles under her eyes.

When I passed the kitchen, I saw Su Lan frying eggs, so I went in and said hello: "Good morning!"

Su Lan held the spatula and was busy with the work in hand. When she heard the sound, she looked over and said with a smile, "You just got up, and I wanted to tell you to sleep a little longer. You must have not slept well last night." Then she decided He fixed his eyes, and said again: "You can tell by the dark circles under your eyes, it must be caused by the noise of the radio."

Seeing that she really understood her mind best, Zhang Xian feigned grievance and pouted her lower lips and moved closer: "Oh, I can't help it, just get used to it for a few days!" Seeing Su Lan skillfully frying eggs, she joked again : "You can do it. The fried eggs look good, and you can't tell that you are a bourgeois young lady at all."

After listening, Su Lan gave her a funny look: "Nonsense, don't look at who I am, I have been married to their Lao Jiang's family for more than ten years, if you can't do this well, what are you doing?" Great."

"Yo, look how proud you are."

"Go and wash your face!"

Zhang Xian sneered, turned around and walked to the bathroom and asked again: "Where is Commander Jiang?"

"He, he went to the cafeteria to make steamed buns. Here, there are steamed buns and porridge. I don't know if you mother and son are used to eating them." Su Lan said while putting fried eggs on a plate.

Standing in front of the blurry mirror in the bathroom, Zhang Xian tied her long hair with a rubber band.She and Su Lan said across the wall: "If there is anything you are not used to, you don't have to deliberately look at us. You can eat what you usually eat. Anyway, I am ready to be a poor middle peasant."

"Why, are you going to dig the ground to grow vegetables, or go fishing in the sea?" Su Lan passed her with a plate and joked with a smile.

"I want to try them all. Look at the women who are driving the sea, they seem to be quite happy, although they are tanned." Zhang Xian said with a sneer: "It looks like it has been bathed in soy sauce." of."

"Okay, don't be poor, hurry up and wash up and come have breakfast." Su Lan went to the dining table to arrange the dishes and chopsticks, and Shen Juan just happened to come out of the room.She raised her eyes and smiled at him, and asked, "Where are Weidong and the others?"

Ju An pointed outside the door: "In the courtyard."

"Go and call them over, let's eat."

"Oh!" Shen Juan trotted to the steps in front of the door, looked at the three figures who were having a "morning meeting" in the courtyard, and shouted: "Captain Jiang, it's time to eat."

This "Captain Jiang" caught Su Lan's attention, she straightened up suddenly, with a puzzled expression on her face: "What are you yelling about, kid?!"

Shen Ju'an turned around and trotted back to the table, saying, "They're back."

Su Lan asked, "Who did you call Commander Jiang just now?"

Shen Juan was stunned for a moment, stared at her with two big eyes, and said, "Jiang Weidong, he made me shout like that."

These words happened to be heard by the three bastards who ran in the door.Jiang Weidong slowed down, and the luster on his face gradually disappeared.

Su Lan turned her face and gave him a pale look, and asked: "You kid, you have learned to teach people to call you the leader, what kind of leader are you?"

Jiang Weidong pretended to be aggrieved, and retorted: "It's not what I said, it was my dad who said that he would help me to be the head of the regiment in the future." He looked out the window: "Here, he is back, don't believe you Ask him yourself."

After finishing speaking, he took a step forward and sat on the stool with the other three, waiting for the meal to start.

Jiang Jianmin brought a large bowl of steamed buns, opened the door and walked in, saying: "I heard you yelling from afar, pay attention to your image, anyway, this is the Commander's house, the influence is not good."

Su Lan walked over to take the steamed buns from him, stared and said: "You know that the influence is not good, and you can influence the children by saying something that misleads the children?"

"Hey man, what did I say about me?"

"You said, helping Weidong as the regiment commander, is this something you, a commander, can say nonsense? It's not good to hear it, it makes people think that our family can always get something for nothing. If you delay the relationship, you can jump a lot of others .”

Jiang Jianmin pulled out his chair and sat down, his face a little flinching, but he retorted: "It's true. He wants to be a soldier. That's a good thing. Anyway, he's not a student. My own son, I can't get him a regiment leader." Dangdang." After finishing speaking, he looked towards Weidong: "Do you think so?!"

"Yes, my dad is right!" Jiang Weidong raised his hands in agreement.

But Su Lan gave him a sideways glance: "Eat your steamed bun." She said and threw a big steamed bun into his bowl, and then put a piece of fried egg to Shen Juan.

Shen Juan raised his head and said thank you to her.

At this moment, Jiang Weidong glanced at him sitting next to him, and said, "You should call me by my name in the future, or someone will find fault with me again."

The words secretly poked Su Lan's back. After hearing this, she said angrily: "Stop talking when eating, eat quickly, and go to school after eating!"

"Oh!" Jiang Weidong lowered his head with a stubborn face, grabbed the steamed bun and chewed it hard.

In the afternoon, the sound of the broadcasting horn stopped for a rare occasion, whether it was broken or something, and the island was suddenly quiet.

Those in the family who want to go to work go to work, and those who want to go to school go to school, leaving the mother and son guarding a front yard full of grape branches.

Zhang Xian had a sudden thought, since he was idle when he was idle, it was fine to live and eat for free, so he couldn't just do nothing.So he rolled up his sleeves and cleaned everything inside and out.Still thinking about learning how to cook, just in time for them to have a hot dinner when they come back.

Following what Su Lan taught her, she handed the food stamps to Shen Ju'an, and said to him, "Come on, do Mom a favor. The red ticket is for vegetables, and the yellow ticket is for steamed buns. Don't forget it wrong." .”

"Okay!" Shen Ju'an took the bowl of vegetables from the table, and when he was about to leave, Zhang Xian said again: "Do you know where the army's canteen is?"

"I know, Jiang Ping'an took me there at noon."

Zhang Xian nodded: "Then go and come back quickly."

"Don't worry!" Shen Ju'an said and trotted out.

He walked out of the yard and up the gravel-paved uphill path.The sea with the setting sun hanging down is presented in front of you. Looking up, you can see the golden waves churning layer by layer, and the shadow of the ship in the distance is slowly moving.The sea breeze slowly blows past him with the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus in September.
