Fortunately, Li Yunyun was well-trained and did not get angry on the spot. In order to maintain her demeanor, she suppressed her displeasure and replied, "No way, the army is very busy at the end of the year, and Shao Feng is even more busy. He has no time to take care of family affairs. I have no choice but to go buy new year’s goods.”

Only the group of military wives can resonate with the difficulties faced by military wives.Lu Chuyao lowered his head and buried his chin in a thick scarf, mumbling, "I really don't want to go out in the winter. I'm most afraid of the cold. It would be great if a commercial street could be built near the camp."

Yuan Lijuan, who was sitting next to her, heard this and laughed, "Why are you dreaming in broad daylight? Who would come to invest in such a remote place where there is no shit. Hey, bear with it."

"I heard..." Li Yunyun hesitated, her eyes stopped on Lu Chuyao, and when she raised her head, she immediately looked away.

The northwest wind was blowing. Yuan Lijuan gathered her clothes and rubbed her hands. She exhaled cold air and white mist between opening and closing her mouth. She asked Li Yunyun: "What did you hear?"

"Didn't your family tell you?" The surprised question made Yuan Lijuan straighten up, frown unconsciously, and then slowly shake her head.

Li Yunyun glanced at Lu Chuyao and saw that she was still looking down, not knowing what she was doing. Then she coughed and said: "Military academy quota, further study." The meaning contained in these concise and concise words made Yuan Lijuan slowly open her eyes. He lightly covered his lips, and then there was silence for a while, no more chatting.

There are many pedestrians on the streets in the cold winter, and red paper lanterns hang from the eaves and sway in the wind, adding a lot of festive atmosphere to the white and cold world.

The road that Lu Chuyao calls the commercial street is especially crowded with pedestrians, all wrapped up in cotton-padded jackets and velvet hats and passing by one after another.To ensure safety, after entering the main street, she walked close to the wall to stay away from strangers.

Holding the scarf in one hand to block the oncoming wind and snow, the other hand grasped the large bag slung at the side.She quickened her pace and walked towards the mall, 50 meters, 30 meters, ten meters, and finally she arrived.

Pushing open the glass door and looking out at the crowds of people, my whole body was instantly swept by a huge heat wave, and I wasn't cold at all.

"I'm sorry, please give way." The old lady who firmly occupied the entrance turned her head when she heard this, cautiously with a hint of impatience, "There are people in front of me, how can I make room for you."

At this time, people kept pushing open the door and coming in outside the mall, squeezing in like stacks of layers.

The space is getting smaller and smaller, and my chest is almost touching the old lady's back.Lu Chuyao raised his head in discomfort, holding his breath, and spent a lot of effort to move to a slightly more relaxed corner.

It seems that people in the city are wealthier than those in the countryside. Even before the Little New Year, there are so many people going out to buy New Year's goods. This shows how crazy shopping will be after the Little New Year.

The logistics department's car only gave them two hours to purchase, and Lu Chuyao's shopping list included a total of twelve items. Combined with the current grand occasion, it might be difficult to buy them all.

She blinked her eyes, clenched her fists and encouraged herself secretly, "You're ok, just go for it!"

She rushed into the sea of ​​people, gritted her teeth and ignored the pushing from people on the left and right, and rushed to the counter in one go.

The high-end tobacco and alcohol sold at this counter were not as crowded as other ordinary counters due to the price, so she easily squeezed in to the front.

"Hello, please give me two Hongtashan cigarettes and two bottles of good wine."

The counter staff packed the bags quickly and handed the money to her after collecting the money.

Next to the tobacco and alcohol counter is a radio. There are not many but not many people around. The women on the outermost floor stand on tiptoes and poke their heads out to scan the few radios in the transparent cabinet.

Not many people pay readily because they are hesitant about cost-effectiveness.

Lu Chuyao was in a hurry. She quickly scanned several brands displayed in the cabinet. To be honest, she didn't know which brand was better.

"Hello, I want the third radio on the left, the one with the tone metal strip. Yes, please wrap it up for me." She spoke in such a loud voice for the first time.

Seeing how readily she ordered one, the adults and aunties around her tacitly made way for her to pay.

After buying radios, cigarettes and alcohol, there are also new clothes for the New Year, local specialties, etc.

He originally thought about going back to his hometown to buy new clothes, but due to the tight holiday schedule and the fact that the ready-made clothes sold in his hometown were rustic and unattractive, Lu Chuyao decisively gave up this plan.

Two hours later, she appeared in a very embarrassed state where the logistics department's purchasing vehicle was waiting, carrying bags full of bags in her left and right hands.

Yuan Lijuan was not much better. She combed her hair meticulously before coming out, which made her look like a crazy woman.

Only Li Yunyun.

Yuan Lijuan put all the "trophies" into the trunk, panting heavily and leaned against the car door, "Yunyun, you didn't buy anything?" She asked in surprise as she looked at Li Yunyun who was walking towards this side unhurriedly. .

The other party held his belly carefully, his cotton shoes crunched on the snow, and he pursed his lips and said softly, "There were too many people in the major stores, so I didn't dare to squeeze in, so I just wandered outside and bought some snacks. "

The paper bag was not sealed tightly and contained colorful candies and lactose.

"Sisters-in-law, come up quickly, we're getting ready to drive."

"it is good!"

It was rare that there was no snow on the day the family of three took the train. The thick clouds parted to reveal the dazzling sun, which melted the ice hanging on the branches.

As the old saying goes, it’s not cold when it snows, but it’s the coldest when the snow melts.Song Mingze opened his black woolen coat to wrap his son around his chest, and fastened the top of his son's woolen hat with his big hands to ensure that the child could not get out of the cold wind before getting out of the car.

"Dazhu, just send it here. We're going through the security check and entering the station."

Dazhu picked up the luggage bag in his hand and said, "Batalion Commander, let me take it in for you. There is a lot of luggage, and my sister-in-law can't carry it alone."

"It's okay, I can do it. Give me the two smaller ones, and give the luggage bag that can be dragged by a trolley to your battalion commander. It's perfect." She raised her lips and took the things in Dazhu's hand, and distributed the luggage reasonably. After that, he said: "Go back. I heard that the canteen will make dumplings at noon today. Go back early and eat some hot dumplings to warm your stomach."

After Lu Chuyao finished speaking, Lu Chuyao said again, "Go."

"Okay, then I'll leave first. Battalion Commander, sister-in-law, Happy New Year!"

A deep male voice and a delicate female voice sounded at the same time, "Happy New Year!"

A long line of green carriages lay on the rails and slowly headed towards home, passing through the bare fields and desolate hills. After more than [-] hours, they finally stopped at the dilapidated train platform of my hometown in the county town. Down.

At around one o'clock at noon, Lu Chuyao knocked on the door of his home.

The newly built houses are beautiful, especially when set against the surrounding rows of short and dilapidated mud-brick houses, they stand out and look "magnificent".

Although it is not as good as the large villas in modern rural areas, judging from the aesthetics of this era, it is already top-notch.

At this time, an old and familiar voice interrupted her inner thoughts, "Who is it?"
