Military marriage, the last big man married the soldier king, the stronger the stronger

It is said that women are born to love shopping, but men are the same.

Especially someone like Si Lu, who wants to spend all his money on his wife and won't stop until all his money is spent.

He had promised the Jiang family to treat Yanyan well and give her what she didn't have or what she regretted.

When a girl gets married, she must have a dowry in addition to a gift.

He was not worried at all about the bride price, as he believed that his family would make arrangements after receiving the telegram.

As for the dowry, the Jiang family is temporarily powerless. Perhaps the old leader will make arrangements, but he cannot take the gamble and let Yanyan enter the family compound empty-handed. He has to make preparations for both situations.

The quality of the people in the family compound varies, and it is very likely that someone will use the dowry issue to make trouble in the future, so Si Lu wanted to be prepared.

He prepared one for Jiang Yan. Although he had handed over all his private money, he had saved a lot in the past six months. He had both money and bills, which were enough to save face for his wife.

When I think about it this way, the desire to shop becomes even more irresistible.

Get two top-quality cotton quilts and buy some cloth. If you don’t make clothes now, you can save them for later.

Women’s facial cream, towels, soap, mirrors, and handkerchiefs must not be left behind.

watch!

I have to buy a pair of watches, and then a women's bicycle, but it's out of stock?

Order one first and pick it up when the goods arrive.

Jiang Yan couldn't stop them. Everyone in the department store looked at her with envy, thinking that she had married a perfect man. But only Jiang Yan herself knew that she was feeling bitter and could not say anything!

All the things Si Lu bought are already in her space! Why waste such money?

"Wife, we still need to cook at home. We need to buy pots, pans, thermoses, kettles, etc., right?"

"Actually, you don't have to buy it." She has plenty of this stuff.

“How can I not buy it?”

Si Lu disagreed, "Put them all in the house and put wedding characters on everything."

Jiang Yan was speechless when she suddenly heard Si Lu whisper, "I've thought about it. You can live in the old chief's house for a while. When I finish cleaning up the house, you can stay in the old chief's house and wait for your wedding peacefully! These are your dowry, how can you not buy them?"

Jiang Yan was stunned. She didn't expect that he would be so thoughtful, even considering letting her get married in her uncle's house.

"What are you standing there for? Pick out what you like." Si Lu pointed at the pair of particularly eye-catching red peony thermoses on the shelf and said, "How about this pair? They are very comfortable to look at."

He had good taste. That pair of thermos was the most expensive, seven or eight yuan more expensive than the cheap ones.

How could a man understand these things? He just thinks she will like it, so he chooses the best one to buy.

Jiang Yan felt as if there was a ball of cotton in her throat, and she didn't know what to say, "We bought so much, how are we going to take it back?"

"You can leave it here, and when the time comes, you can pick it up and send it directly to the old leader's home."

Jiang Yan was touched and wanted to laugh, so she could only let him go.

In the end, the two of them bought all the miscellaneous items and could not take them with them, so they had to leave them in the department store.

"I thought we just needed to get the certificate."

"How can that be possible!" Si Lu said seriously: "You must have what others have." You must also have what others don't have.

"Have you thought about this a long time ago?" Although she was touched, Jiang Yan was surprisingly calm at this moment.

Si Lu smiled at Jiang Yan and said, "I didn't tell you before because I was afraid that you would feel psychologically burdened. I think that we must tell the old commander about such a big thing as our marriage. He is your relative, so he naturally doesn't want you to walk into the family compound by yourself."

Si Lu was unwilling to do so. In his heart, his wife deserved the best.

"You are getting married in the old chief's house. With the blessing of your family, you will not have any regrets. Yanyan, you only get married once, and I don't want you to have any regrets."

Jiang Yan just said: "Can you handle it by yourself?"

"How can we be too busy? Those kids are full of energy and have nothing to do every day, so why not let them help us clean up the house. I'll paint the house, tidy up the yard, measure the dimensions, and then we'll go pick out the furniture together."

The two people walked slowly, talking as they walked.

Si Lu is planning their small home and also planning their future.

After getting the marriage certificate, they are a legal couple, and of course he can legally eat meat. But Si Lu doesn't want Jiang Yan to have any regrets.

It was unrealistic to return to Beijing to hold the wedding. All he could do was to give Jiang Yan the best and most thoughtful thing within his ability.

"So where should I stay tonight?"

"Guesthouse. Tomorrow I'll borrow a car, load your things, and send you back to the old leader's house." Si Lu tried his best to control his emotions and not get too excited. God knows his heart has been beating wildly all day and not a single beat is normal.

The two of them strolled back to the guesthouse slowly like an old couple. After Si Lu arranged accommodation for Jiang Yan, he immediately returned to the regiment headquarters and went to the family quarters.

The wedding house had been approved a long time ago, and the conditions of the regiment were just like that. The family compound was composed of small bungalows with similar layouts, and there was a piece of open space in the front where one could grow some vegetables.

The military wives who know how to manage their lives treat this private plot of land as a treasure and take good care of it every year just to save some money and have a bite of fresh food.

Si Lu pushed open the gate and stood in the yard looking around.

Yanyan probably doesn't like growing vegetables, right? How about planting some grapes in the yard?

The house had been empty for too long and the yard was overgrown with weeds. Si Lu thought about it and decided to borrow a hoe from the neighbor next door so that he could weed the yard first.

The neighbor next door was none other than the home of the third battalion commander Pi Baiyu.

The last time Pi Baiyu's wife fell, they took her to the hospital. The political commissar and Song Zhe were there at the time.

Pi Baiyu was not at home. The hoe was brought out by his wife through the children. Si Lu thanked everyone in the house and quickly started working.

He is full of energy now and doesn't feel tired at all.

The yard was cleaned up in a short while.

Si Lu piled the grass aside to dry, returned the hoe, and went back to the regiment headquarters.

The first thing to do is to call home.

The telephone is still faster than the telegram, so the two dollars I spent in the morning were wasted.

However, he was afraid that Jiang Yan would be shy, so he didn't call in advance. Now it's a good opportunity to talk to his family while Jiang Yan is away.

The call was quickly connected, and Ning Yu's voice came from the other end.

"mom."

"Son?" Ning Yu was surprised and happy. "How is it? Is everything going well?"

She and Si Lu had lost contact for a long time, and she just thought that Si Lu called to report that he was safe after completing his mission.

Si Lu touched his nose on the other end of the phone and said, "Well, I'm married."

"What?" Ning Yu's voice became much higher. "Married? To whom?"

Si Lu was speechless. "Of course it's with Jiang Yan. Who else can it be with? We got our marriage certificate today."
