Reborn in the 1970s, the cold soldier is a bit sweet

After watching them leave, Wang Xiaoxiao checked the time. It was still very early and planned to go back to the house and continue sleeping.

Chu Xingchen still had something to do with his troops, so he went to work. Before leaving, he said to her: "I will be back in a while, and I will accompany you to the city."

Their original plan was to go to the city to buy New Year gifts today.

Wang Xiaoxiao nodded: "I understand."

When she fell asleep, it was almost ten o'clock and Chu Xingchen hadn't come back yet. Wang Xiaoxiao made some breakfast for herself in the space. After eating, she thought about whether she should go to the city by herself or continue to wait for Chu Xingchen?

After struggling for a while, she decided to continue waiting for someone. It was not okay to go shopping without anyone carrying her bag.

It was past twelve o'clock when Chu Xingchen came back.

The first thing he did when he came back was to apologize to the little woman: "Daughter-in-law, I'm sorry, something happened in the team, and it has been delayed until now."

Wang Xiaoxiao shook his head: "It's okay, it's not too late."

Chu Xingchen placed the lunch he brought when he came back on the dining table: "After dinner, shall we walk?"

Wang Xiaoxiao looked at the somewhat cautious man and found it funny: "Chu Xingchen, I am a tigress."

Chu Xingchen shook his head repeatedly: "How can there be a tigress as gentle and beautiful as my wife?"

As he went to the bathroom to wash his hands, he added: "I'm afraid you'll be unhappy if I come back too late."

Wang Xiaoxiao said truthfully: "I'm not unhappy. I know there must be something wrong with you not coming back."

She opened the lunch box on the dining table, took out the food, and went to the kitchen to get two pairs of chopsticks.

When Chu Xingchen came out after washing his hands, he saw her setting the food and sitting there waiting for him: "Why don't you eat first? You don't have to wait for me next time."

Wang Xiaoxiao responded casually.

The two of them were eating face to face, and Wang Xiaoxiao bit her chopsticks: "After grandma left, our living standards dropped sharply."

She just ate some for breakfast and only had two dishes for lunch, which were not very delicious. Compared with grandma's table full of dishes every day, they were simply too shabby.

Chu Xingchen stopped his chopsticks: "What do you want to eat? I'll cook it for you?"

It was a bit late today. He didn't have time to go to the small canteen to ask the chef to cook, so he went directly to the big canteen to get some food.

Wang Xiaoxiao ate late. He was either too hungry or just felt a little bad. He shook his head: "No, we'll talk about it in the city later."

Chu Xingchen didn't want to wrong her, so he coaxed: "I'm still very hungry. This is not enough to eat. I'm going to make some. I still have bacon and cooked beef at home. I'll fry the bacon with garlic sprouts, and I'll stew some potatoes and roast the beef, okay?"

Wang Xiaoxiao drooled: "Then... well, let's do it together."

Chu Xingchen nodded: "Okay, you light the fire and I'll cook."

The men and women were paired together, so the work was not tiring. Two dishes with good color, fragrance and flavor were soon out of the pot. Chu Xingchen also made a simple seaweed and egg drop soup, four vegetables and one soup, which immediately raised the grade.

After eating, Chu Xingchen went to the kitchen to wash the dishes. Wang Xiaoxiao lay on the sofa and rested for a while before going back to the house to clean up after herself. Girls like to look pretty and cool when going out shopping.

The little white mink that has always been on the bottom of the box can finally be worn. Paired with a black long skirt, black leggings, and black leather boots, the classic black and white combination will never go out of style.

She wore her hair down in loose curls, her lips were a little dry, and she applied a little slightly colored lipstick. The color was not obvious, but it felt like the original healthy pink color of her lips.

Looking at the elegant and beautiful woman in the mirror, Wang Xiaoxiao nodded with satisfaction and was ready to go.

Just as I was about to open the door and come out, I thought about it and took out a red scarf from the cabinet and wrapped it around my neck. Well, I can go out now.

In the living room, Chu Xingchen had already packed up and was sitting leisurely on the sofa, reading a newspaper casually.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, he raised his head, and a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes when he saw the little woman.

Chu Xingchen put the newspaper on the coffee table, stood up and came to her side: "I really want to hide you from others."

Wang Xiaoxiao smiled sweetly: "Your idea is wrong. You shouldn't take it out to show off."

I originally wanted to ask him if he was "good-looking", but now I no longer wanted to. The man's eyes had already said everything.

Chu Xingchen shook his head: "I can't bear to show it to others."

Wang Xiaoxiao smiled even more coquettishly, and she took the initiative to hold his arm: "Let's go quickly. If we delay any longer, it will be really late."

Chu Xingchen nodded: "Okay."

The two of them drove their own car, and the driver was of course Chu Xingchen.

Wang Xiaoxiao leaned lazily on the passenger seat, feeling a little bored, so she closed her eyes and fell asleep.

When they arrived in the city, it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon. Chu Xingchen asked her, "Where should we go first?"

Wang Xiaoxiao thought for a moment: "Let's go directly to the department store."

Chu Xingchen said "hmm" and parked the car in an open space not far from the department store. The two got out of the car and walked over.

The 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month is the New Year, and there are not so many pedestrians on the street. The crowding makes Wang Xiaoxiao feel that it will soon catch up with the holiday travel scenes of later generations.

She avoided pedestrians and put one hand in front of her belly to protect the little one in her belly. Chu Xingchen also put his long arm on her waist to protect her.

Pedestrians passing by could guess something when they saw the young couple's posture, and they would deliberately avoid Wang Xiaoxiao.

Wang Xiaoxiao originally thought that things would be better when she arrived at the department store. Unexpectedly, there were more people inside, and she instantly thought of quitting.

Chu Xingchen frowned when he saw this person squeezing around. This pushing and shoving was too dangerous.

"Xiaoxiao, why don't we forget it first?"

Wang Xiaoxiao thought for a while: "I'll wait in the car while you go in and buy something."

How can I go back for the Chinese New Year without bringing any gifts, and this is the first time I go to his house.

Chu Xingchen agreed: "Okay."

He protected Wang Xiaoxiao back to the car: "What do you want to buy?"

Wang Xiaoxiao asked him: "Tell me who is in your family, I will decide."

Chu Xingchen replied: "My parents, two brothers and sisters-in-law, and three nephews."

"Oh, no, they should be four nephews. The second sister-in-law gave birth two days ago."

Wang Xiaoxiao said jokingly: "Your family has quite a lot of yang energy."

Except for those who marry in, they are all men.

Chu Xingchen laughed out loud: "Isn't that right? My mother originally wanted a daughter, but she gave birth to three children, all of which were boys. She was so scared that she didn't dare to have another baby, for fear that she would be a boy again. The same goes for my eldest brother. The first baby was a boy, which was better, but the second baby was a boy, not to mention how disappointed he was. The second brother was even better. When the second sister-in-law was pregnant with this baby, she had to say hundreds of times a day that it must be a girl, and then the baby was born. Then there was the boy, and he almost forgot the baby when he was discharged from the hospital."

"Pfft..."

Wang Xiaoxiao couldn't help but laugh: "Well, my family is the same. My father's generation is all male, and I am the only daughter in my generation."

Chu Xingchen was a little worried. Given the current situation, could he still have a cute little girl?
