Meng Jiu'an lay on the bed with his eyes closed. It was already past ten o'clock when he usually fell asleep on time, but today for some reason he couldn't fall asleep despite tossing and turning.
He got up and turned on the light, wanting to go out and get himself a glass of water.
Passing by the door of Yu Changle's room, she didn't hear any movement inside, and the crack in the door was also dark. She must have fallen asleep.
Meng Jiuan's eyes darkened, he raised his head and drank the water in his hand, then turned and returned to the room.
Just as he was about to turn off the light and go to bed, he accidentally caught a glimpse of the neatly written note on the desk. He walked over to it, took it in his hand, and read it again.
Her handwriting is unexpectedly neat and neat, and the font is beautiful and long, which is completely different from her round appearance.
Meng Jiu'an thought of her holding the bowl to protect the food, with a vigilant look on her face, with two bright eyes staring at him on her chubby little face, with unswallowed noodles still wrapped in her red mouth. Unconsciously, it turned up again.
It looked a little funny at the time, but I didn't expect that she also had a dashing and heroic side.
If he hadn't vaguely heard her voice and gone to find her, he would have missed her heroic move of coming to ask for an explanation single-handedly.
Meng Jiu'an couldn't help but chuckle when he remembered that he heard her roaring "Blow your head" before he even got close.
Rude is really rude, but...cute is also kind of cute.
Meng Jiu quietly looked at the dark roof, and for the first time he had doubts about himself in his heart - was this decision to divorce the right one?
...
The next day was another sunny day, and Yu Changle stretched out comfortably after a dreamless night. She had been exhausted the past few days, and it was rare for her to have a good sleep last night.
When I came out of the house, I found that Meng Jiuan's door was open, the quilts on the bed were neatly folded as before, and the desk was clean and empty, but no one was anywhere.
At this moment, the door opened, and Meng Jiuan came back from outside with a bag of buns in his hand.
It seemed that he did not expect to see Yu Changle as soon as he opened the door. Meng Jiuan was stunned for a second before passing the bun in his hand:
"I bought steamed buns and had a quick bite... Then, we went to the regiment headquarters."
Only then did Yu Changle realize what he meant. He almost forgot about the divorce when he woke up. Maybe Meng Jiu'an got up early and was waiting for him!
She immediately took the buns and said sheepishly: "Now, wait for me, I'll wash up and we'll set off. I can eat the buns on the way."
After saying that, he hurried into the kitchen to get water to wash his face and brush his teeth.
It was packed up in a few seconds. While packing, I asked, "Do I need to bring any materials?"
Let alone divorce, she has never even experienced marriage and has no idea what the process is.
Meng Jiu'an heard that her tone was relaxed and natural, not sad, and he felt mixed emotions in his heart:
"I have prepared all the materials. You can set off after you finish packing."
"Okay, let's go."
In less than ten minutes, Yu Changle stood in front of Meng Jiu'an with a clear mind.
She wore a high ponytail today, and her originally round face seemed to be smaller, but fortunately she still looked good, her skin was fair and rosy, and she looked at herself with a pair of clear eyes, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised. , two shallow dimples were looming, and there was a hint of lightness in his tone.
Is she so happy that she is getting divorced?
menu End this wrong marriage.
Now it seems that she is not too sad. She even took the initiative to mention the recent divorces, and she felt a little impatient.
In this case, let it be. Your mood swings during this period may just be a stress response when facing major changes in your life.
He regained his usual composure: "I'm not driving, let's take the bus."
The two closed the courtyard door and walked all the way to the bus stop.
On the way, I met Qi Dongyu and others who lived in Courtyard No. 1. When they saw Yu Changle, they greeted her enthusiastically:
"Changle, are you two going to the city?"
Yu Changle smiled and nodded: "Well, let's go to the city to do some errands."
It is not common for these two couples to be together. Even Qi Dongyu from Courtyard No. 1 knew that the relationship between the two was tense. Now that he saw them going to the city together, he thought that their relationship was much more harmonious, and he was also happy for Yu Changle:
"Oh, the young couple has such a good relationship. Look, they will be a good couple when they get together!"
"Lao Meng, you have indeed married a good and capable wife. She is beautiful and kind-hearted. Not only is she capable, but she also doesn't forget to take us military wives with her!"
The military wives next to them all smiled and nodded in agreement. Yu Changle was busy opening a business these days, and Li Mei was too busy making clothes by herself, so she distributed some simple clothes for others to make, ranging from 20 cents to 50 cents a piece. For these military wives, He said that it not only kills time but also helps support the family's income. Everyone is very grateful to Yu Changle.
Meng Jiu'an was a little surprised. He didn't expect Yu Changle to have such a harmonious relationship with the military wives in No. 1 Courtyard:
"Thank you sisters-in-law for taking care of me. I don't have much time at home, so I can't help but trouble everyone."
Qi Dongyu smiled and said: "You, you just have too little time at home, and you don't know how good your wife is. It's hard to find such a good wife even with a lantern, but you have to be careful and cherish her!"
Yu Changle's face turned red after being praised in person, and she scratched her toes with embarrassment. She thought that if everyone knew that she and Meng Jiu'an were going to the city to get a divorce, it would be their turn to be embarrassed.
Meng Jiu'an suddenly remembered that Lao Liu helped drive the car back when he fainted last time. Before he could express his thanks, he said:
"By the way, Sister-in-law Qi, I haven't had time to say thank you to Old Liu for helping me drive last time. It's so late at night, so I'm really troubling you!"
Qi Dongyu was stunned for a moment after hearing this. When did Lao Liu help Meng Jiuan drive? Or at night? Why didn't she know?
Upon hearing this, Yu Changle moved as if he had been stabbed by a needle in the buttocks. He suddenly pulled Meng Jiuan up and rushed forward:
"Oops! The car is here! Sisters-in-law, let's talk next time!"
Seeing Yu Changle irritably grabbing Meng Jiuan and leaving, Qi Dongyu smiled and said:
"Look, I'm embarrassed to praise her a few times. Let's go quickly. Don't be late to catch the car."
The military wife next to them looked at the two of them and said with envy: "Young people are so kind. They hold hands wherever they go. It's not like our family. When we go out, we want the road to turn to the sky, and each side goes to one side!"
Qi Dongyu joked: "What, you want another child when you are older? Let me tell you, it's family planning now, don't make mistakes!"
These words caused everyone to burst into laughter again.
