When Yu Xiangnian returned home, he started writing his first letter.
Send it out today, Cheng Jingmo will receive it in two or three days when he gets home!
Cheng Jingmo knew everything about her recent situation and had nothing to write about.
Yu Xiangnian thought for a minute and wrote a short letter.
Cheng Jingmo:
Today is our first day apart. As soon as you left, I missed you, very much!
I forgot to tell you something last night.
I forgot to promise you that when I see handsome guys in the future, I will just admire them and never have any evil intentions! Do not worry!
Also, when we came back from the train station today, Aunt Lin said that she had a dream last night about a little black pig coming to the house.
Aunt Lin said that when he was pregnant with you, he also dreamed of pigs. She said our child would most likely be a boy.
I don’t know if this kind of dream is accurate?
I don't care about the gender of the child, I just think of a boy who looks like a little black pig... Uh... Cheng Jingmo, I want a girl!
Well, that’s all for today, bye!
Husband, I love you! Miss you! mUa~~~
In the afternoon when Cheng Jingmo returned to the family home, several family members couldn't wait to come home.
"Deputy Commander Cheng, have Comrade Yu and Xiaojie settled down in Beijing?" Feng Aiqin asked.
Cheng Jingmo cleaned the room, "Yeah."
Wang Hongxiang then asked, "Then will she come back after finishing college?"
Cheng Jingmo did not answer directly, "There are still three months left. School is on vacation and they will be back."
"It's great! I can see Comrade Yu again in the future." Liu Zhen said, "You are not used to being away for this period of time!"
There are fewer topics to talk about in the family courtyard, and when they encounter problems, there is no one to give them advice.
After sending these family members away, Cheng Jingmo looked at everything in the room, and a sadness spread from the bottom of his heart.
The day before he left, the bouquet of flowers he gave to Yu Xiangnian was still in the vase, but it was so withered that no color could be seen.
The two hens were fed by Liu Zhen's sister-in-law. They grew well and had smooth feathers. They had already accumulated a small basket of eggs.
The vegetable patch was overgrown with weeds, almost overtaking the peppers and tomatoes.
It seems that nothing has changed, but everything has changed.
The two figures, one large and one small, disappeared, and even their laughter could not be heard.
Cheng Jingmo finished cleaning and washing up. It was almost early in the morning.
Walking into the familiar bedroom, it seemed that Yu Xiangnian could still see Yu Xiangnian supporting his head with one hand, crossing his fair and smooth legs, lying on his side on the bed, smiling charmingly, and twitching his fingers at him.
Missing is flooding in!
Cheng Jingmo couldn't help but blush again.
He sat in the seat where Yu Xiangnian worked every day and started writing a letter.
There are thousands of words in my heart, but when I put down the pen, I have no words to say them.
Finally, he calmed down and wrote:
Think about it:
I just got home today. The temperature in Nancheng is really high, much hotter than Beijing.
Nothing at home has changed, except that you and Xiaojie are not here, which makes me a little uncomfortable.
Just now those sisters-in-law came to the house to ask about you. They are all looking forward to your return from vacation.
You should pay attention to supplementing your body with nutrients now. Just buy whatever you want to eat, or you can tell Teacher Song and others.
······
With great enthusiasm, Cheng Jingmo wrote two and a half pages of letterhead, and the longing in his heart was finally relieved a lot.
He folded the letter and prepared to send it out the next day.
The next day, Cheng Jingmo returned to work in the army. The first thing he did was to file a report, apply for dormitory accommodation in the army, and return the family room.
Logically speaking, if the family members do not live in the family home, the house should be returned.
But Cheng Jingmo's situation is special.
Ma Dacheng called Cheng Jingmo to the office to ask about the situation.
After learning that Yu Xiangnian brought Xiaojie back during the vacation and that he might give birth here in the future, Cheng Jingmo's application was not approved.
"Let's live here for now. Anyway, there are vacancies in the family home, so the house is not in short supply. When the house is not enough in the future, you can return it," Ma Dacheng said.
In this way, Cheng Jingmo lived alone in the house in the family courtyard.
His life on his own is much simpler. He eats three meals a day in the cafeteria, and there is no fire at home.
The tomatoes and peppers in the vegetable field were also shoveled, and some cabbage seeds were sprinkled on them. The cabbage that grew was used to feed the chickens.
He had to take good care of these two chickens. Xiaojie raised them by himself, so he didn't care.
When they come back, they can kill the chicken and eat it!
It was finally Saturday.
Cheng Jingmo calculated the time when Yu Xiangnian would be home and came to the duty room.
As soon as he entered the door, he took the initiative and said to the soldier on duty: "I'll wait for a call, you don't have to worry about me."
Half an hour later, the phone rang.
Cheng Jingmo's heart skipped a beat. After the soldier on duty answered the phone, he said to Cheng Jingmo, "Deputy Commander Cheng, your phone number."
Cheng Jingmo answered the phone and heard Yu Xiangnian's cheerful voice, "Cheng Jingmo! I miss you so much!"
She wanted to talk to Cheng Jingmo for a while, so she first called home to report that she was safe, and then called Cheng Jingmo.
"Well, me too." Cheng Jingmo said quietly.
Yu Xiangnian asked: "Have you received my letter?"
"not yet."
"It's really slow." Yu Xiangnian said with disgust, "Have you had any dreams recently?"
Cheng Jingmo was confused, "Dreaming? I did."
Yu Xiangnian said excitedly: "Tell me what you dreamed about?"
She lived in the dormitory this week and listened to the stories of her roommates about fetal dreams, which seemed to be quite accurate.
But since she was pregnant until now, she has never dreamed about any animals or plants.
She doesn't want a black piggy. If Cheng Jingmo can dream about flowers and plants, it must be a beautiful daughter!
Cheng Jingmo hesitated for a moment, "It's hard to say."
There are two soldiers here listening, how can they tell the contents of the dream.
Yu Xiangnian immediately realized, "You are shameless!"
Cheng Jingmo: "..."
He dreamed that he would be admitted to the military academy and lead troops to fight. Why was he so shameless? !
"How are you doing?" Cheng Jingmo asked.
"Everyone is fine, don't worry."
Cheng Jingmo said: "I also wrote you a letter. It will be here soon. I am relieved that you are doing well. That will be it for today."
"Ah..." Yu Xiangnian couldn't hide his disappointment, "Why don't we talk about it now?"
She was all ready to talk on the phone with Cheng Jingmo, but they hadn't even talked for five minutes yet!
Cheng Jingmo didn't want to talk about it, but this was the phone number in the duty room. It was inappropriate for him to use it for private chatting.
If there is something urgent and the call cannot come in, it will delay the matter!
Cheng Jingmo said, "I'll tell you when I go home to visit my parents next week."
Yu Xiangnian said dullly: "Oh, that's okay. You haven't said you miss me yet."
Cheng Jingmo: "Yeah."
Yu Xiangnian repeated, "I want to hear you say you miss me!"
Cheng Jingmo: "Well, you know."
"You whisper, I want to hear it..." Yu Xiangnian acted coquettishly.
Cheng Jingmo took a peek at the two soldiers and licked his lips nervously.
