"Fall down."

On the last day of the month, Zhou Rongyan came back and drove his army jeep to pick her up.

Ji Luo received his call two days ago. In the past two days, he had dealt with all the trivial matters at home, handed over the business to Chen Zhifeng, and packed his few luggage.

"Brother Yan."

Ji Luo was busy in the kitchen. When he saw him coming back, he immediately ran out with a smile on his face.

"Luoluo, don't run, walk slowly."

Zhou Rongyan opened the car door and got out. He saw that she looked good, her face was a little rounder, and her belly was slightly bulging. He smiled and said, "You must have been waiting for a long time."

"I came back just in time, the food will be ready soon."

Ji Luo saw that his complexion was also very good. He was a bit paler after not seeing him for a month, and his smile was as bright as a flower: "Did you not train under the sun during this period?"

"I only do morning exercises and spend the whole day in the laboratory."

Zhou Rongyan held her with one hand and gently touched her abdomen with a smile in his eyes, "Is the baby good? Does your appetite feel better now?"

"She's very well-behaved and her appetite is much better. I went to the hospital for a prenatal check-up yesterday and the doctor said she looks very healthy."

"That's good."

Zhou Rongyan took her into the house. Seeing that no one else was there, he asked, "Aren't they here today?"

"I handed over the business to the Chen family. They will have two days off and start work again after I leave. Some of the furniture that the Chen family bought was delivered today. Brother Chen and Bingqing went to help move it. Once it is done, they will Come over for dinner. Jiaojiao and He Jie have also gone to help, and we will join them later."

While they were talking, they entered the house. The food in the kitchen pot was still simmering. Ji Luo immediately went in to stir-fry and said to him, "Brother Yan, sit down and rest first. You can eat in half an hour."

"Luoluo, I'm not tired, let me do it." Zhou Rongyan rolled up his sleeves to help.

"Brother Yan, I don't need your help. You go and rest. I only need to cook two dishes."

Ji Luo stir-fried the vegetables and continued to stew with the lid on. He looked at the pork ribs and lotus root soup simmering on the small stove next to him and said to him, "Brother Yan, Uncle Chen invited us to have dinner at home tonight."

"Okay, let's rest here tonight and leave tomorrow morning."

It is three hundred kilometers from Nanxi County to the provincial capital. Zhou Rongyan set off before dawn this morning. He drove very fast, and even if the road conditions were not good, he arrived before lunch.

Not long after, Chen Zhifeng and the others came back together, and sumptuous dishes were served.

The six of us ate and prepared six dishes, three meat, two vegetarian and one soup, and also steamed some of Zhou Rongyan's favorite meat buns.

At the dinner table, Chen Zhifeng asked: "Rong Yan, how do you arrange your work? Do you stay in the army or go to that scientific research institute?"

"Stay in the army for now."

Zhou Rongyan had heard the accurate news when he went to work at the scientific research institute this time. He told He Jie and Li Jiaojiao, "You should hurry up and review your homework. The college entrance examination will resume soon."

He Jie's eyes gleamed: "Brother Zhou, you have received accurate information, right?"

"almost."

The policy hasn't been finalized yet, but the leaders of the scientific research institute confirmed it, and Xu Guanglei called his family.

He continued: "Recovering after so many years, teachers and school buildings are in short supply, and there are still many educated youth in the countryside who have not returned. This is also an opportunity for them to return to the city. The competition may be very high. Make preparations early and inform us. Students with good relationships should take the time to review their homework, and policies will be issued in two months at the latest."

He Jie and Li Jiaojiao nodded solemnly, "Brother Zhou, we understand, thank you."

Although Zhou Rongyan did not study much in school, he later took tutoring lessons after joining the army. This time the college entrance examination resumed, he also planned to sign up.

The most important thing is that the couple started preparing early, and his wife helped him make up lessons. He was very confident about this exam.

After finishing the meal, Li Jiaojiao helped wash the dishes, and then hurried back with He Jie.

Ever since a certain layer of veil was torn apart, the relationship between the two was no longer a simple relationship between classmates and friends. He Jie was a thick-skinned person, and Li Jiaojiao couldn't resist it, and his heart was quickly broken by him.

Now that the two of them were dating openly, He Jie also followed her back to meet other elders. He formally visited his future parents-in-law two days ago.

He made all his own personal decisions, and his parents also came to quarrel with him, but he drove them away directly and never let them appear in front of Li Jiaojiao and the Li family.

After they left, Ji Luo made a pot of tea, and the four of them sat at the table drinking tea and chatting.

"Luoluo, I have completed the formalities for the apartment that the scientific research institute rewarded me with. The shop downstairs is quite large, with an area of ​​seventy or eighty square meters. There are two rooms separated by two at the attic. They are quite large in area and are larger than the rooms here. It’s much more spacious.”

"I know you want to do business. Although the provincial capital is a little more liberal and you can set up stalls in areas designated by the government, you can't open a shop privately yet."

"Guanglei has a friend who works in a woolen factory in the provincial capital. I have asked him to help. The store is affiliated with the woolen factory and the procedures have been completed. You can go over and hand over."

Seeing that he had done all these things, Ji Luo was very happy: "Brother Yan, I originally thought about finding an employer to work with, and spending more money would be fine, but I didn't expect that you have done it all. Now I don't have to work hard." Ran away."

"I can only help you get these things done. You have to do the business yourself yourself. I may not be able to spare much time to help you."

Zhou Rongyan returned to the army to officially report this time. Next, he will have to strengthen training and will probably go out to perform tasks. Not to mention helping her deal with things in the store, he even has to squeeze in time to spend with her.

"Leave the rest to me."

Ji Luo controlled a large group company in her previous life, and she also started by opening a small store. Even if the policies are different now, it will not be difficult for her.

She already had a plan in mind and asked him: "Brother Yan, is the store located in a remote location? Is there anyone doing business nearby?"

“The location is at the intersection of the main street, not far from the government-planned stall market. It’s a three- to five-minute walk. The surrounding stores are all owned by state-owned units, and some are affiliated with state-owned units. That street is quite lively. ."

When Zhou Rongyan went to go through the formalities, he looked around and said, "Luoluo, that street mainly sells grain, oil and dry goods, as well as some furniture and daily necessities."

"Ji Luo, how about we open a bun shop?" Chen Zhifeng suggested.

Ji Luo didn't want to do this anymore, shook his head and said: "It's profitable to open a breakfast shop, but it's too hard. I'm not suitable for this when I'm pregnant and have a baby. After you and Bingqing get married, you have to consider having a baby, and so do you." We have no elders to help and we have to take care of the children by ourselves. We are not suitable for running a business that is too hard."

"Yes, Zhifeng, the breakfast shop is too hard. You have to get up in the middle of the night every day. It's hard for the two sisters to raise and give birth to a child. Their bodies can't handle it." Zhou Rongyan also disagreed.
