Description

Qin Rou was a kindergarten teacher with a soft personality. In order to protect a child in the kindergarten, she was stabbed in the back by a wicked man, but accidentally she transmigrated as an arrogant and coquettish female supporting character whose personality was opposite of hers. The cannon fodder supporting character Qin Rou was an excellent female partner in the novel of 70's Art Troupe. She served as a comparison tool to the heroine Xue Tingting, who was gentle and kind, and was rejected by the leader.

After transmigration, Qin Rou who after experiencing trauma of being murdered by a middle aged man got afraid of the fierce and tall military men who she performed for. How could she dare to stay? She just wanted to apply for discharge from the army as soon as possible.

Who knew that Qin Rou was blessed, and the leader asked her to go on a blind date with a man with a prickly personality.

"She has a fiery personality, so she's just perfect for him."

The ill-tempered Lu Yan, from a good family background, had made great contributions and was about to be sent to a certain island. He was asked to solve his personal marriage problems as soon as possible.

Lu Yan was arranged for several blind dates, and was famous because of his short temper, incomprehensible style, and countless beauties. Every girl who went on a blind date with him returned crying.

To give him a lesson, his father said bluntly, "Choose a girl with the fiercest character for him!"

The tempered guy sat down with the hottest Chilli Pepper on a blind date.

The girl Qin Rou returned from blind date with red swollen eyes as well.

But in a couple days news came that just after one meeting they agreed to marry each other?

Grandfather: (ノ=Д=)ノ┻━┻

The leader of the Troupe was dumbfounded: … Really?

Qin Rou's fake sister: …Really climbed the high branch?

Lu Yan and Qin Rou got married.

"Look, they will divorce soon!"

"Can Qin Rou go to the island with him to live a hard life?"

The sisters in the troupe and Lu Yan's comrades in arms all thought that after the two people got married, they would divorce in two years.

Who would have guessed that two years later, the woman hugged the child, and the prickly man honestly changed the diapers.

June 1971, Bincheng, Liao Province, in an auditorium.

It was originally a warehouse, and the place was very empty. Later, it was converted into an auditorium, and a large stage was built. On weekdays, military and civilian meetings, movies, and cultural performances were held there.

A man was adjusting his hat with a red star, and an old cadre over there looked down at his broken watch, which was tied to his wrist with a rope. With the help of the staff, people would squeeze in and sit neatly.

Members of cultural and art troupes from several districts in Bincheng were busy behind the stage. That day's cultural performance was not easy. It was to be assessed to be selected and awarded. It was likely to affect the advanced evaluation at the end of the year.

"Qin Rou, you really don't want to change this solo show?"

Qin Rou didn't answer, so another person winked at her and responded, "How can this be changed, it's already reported."

"If our group lost, who would be criticized by the leaders? Who is the one who will have to write the review letter? After all, it wasn't us, she was arguing for it."

"She didn't become a successful stepmother, so she must sing this song."

A girl with a short haircut walked by the three of them, and reminded them, "You have to be careful when you talk, be careful that people can tear your mouth if you talk nonsense."

"She is from Chuanxiang, and she is very famous."

"If you know she is famous, how dare you provoke her?!"

After speaking, the three looked at each other and sneered.

After laughing, Zhou Meilan, who was the first to speak and ask, looked at the young girl sitting on a pony who was sorting the green satchel and her eyes flashed with jealousy.

The girl didn't wear a hat and had two black braids. Her hair was the most beautiful among the girls in the group. It was dark and thick, which made her skin white and delicate.

Her appearance was gorgeous and flamboyant, with a small melon face. The most attractive thing on her face was her charming fox eyes. These eyes were beautiful and special. Every time one saw her, they couldn't help staring at her eyes.

Qin Rou, the beautiful girl from Chuanxiang in their cultural troupe, was pretty and had a beautiful voice like an oriole. But she had a bad temper and an annoying personality.

Relying on her beauty, Qin Rou wanted to take the lead in everything. She still wanted to climb high branches, but she was not clever at all. With her fox-like face, she could indeed seduce men, but she had a big mouth which spoke her mind, with a strong southern accent.

Some time ago, she climbed up with a regimental leader named Yang. The regimental leader was thirty-two years old, thirteen years older than her. His wife in the countryside died early, leaving behind three children. Qin Rou agreed to marry Yang Tuan to be the kids' stepmother.

Unexpectedly, within two days, Leader Yang and his old mother from the countryside came to the art troupe to make trouble for Qin Rou, calling her a coquettish fox, a fox spirit, and one who had learned tricks at a young age.

It turned out that his old mother in the countryside had already chosen a native wife for Leader Yang. So how could she want her son to be seduced by the fox spirit?

Mrs. Yang's coming to the art troupe had completely ruined Qin Rou's reputation. She became a joke in their military region. It was not nice to be called a fox those days.

Qin Rou's temper was not tolerable either. She scolded Mrs. Yang who had to be hospitalized. But she had a fever, and the people of the art troupe sent her to the hospital.

After an illness, the people in the art troupe found that Qin Rou's character was much more honest.

"Qin Rou, you stole Xue Tingting's show. If you can't sing well, everyone will be embarrassed with you."

"It's almost time to start, you still haven't asked Zhang Min to do your makeup."

The person in charge of makeup in the art troupe was the short-haired girl who mocked Qin Rou before, and she never dealt with her.

In the past, Qin Rou always disliked the most ugly stage makeup that Zhang Min did on her. At first, Zhang Min was really jealous of Qin Rou's charming and good-looking appearance, and deliberately made her ugly.

Now that Qin Rou was in a bad condition, she hurriedly followed suit.

Qin Rou, who was sitting on the pony, put down the green satchel, got up and said, "I'll do it by myself."

Her voice was as crisp as a silver bell, and it was like the melodious sound of a lute plucked from the strings of a pipa, with a different kind of rhythm, very nice.

Zhou Meilan on the side was stunned for a moment. She found that Qin Rou spoke Mandarin more standardly, and her voice was softer and more pleasant than before.

Zhang Min rolled her eyes. She pulled up her sleeves, crossed her arms and sneered, "Then you can slowly transform yourself, it's none of my business if you make yourself a ghost. Girls come over, I'll do your makeup beautifully."

Most of the performances were without makeup, but young girls always had a keen curiosity about the kind of thing. Hoping to be beautiful on the stage, they always seized the opportunity to put on lipstick and draw their brows.

Qin Rou turned around and ignored Zhang Min. She took out a small mirror and found a cosmetic bag that she had prepared a long time ago from her green satchel.

That year, cosmetics were not allowed to be sold outside, and the country had only a few cosmetic production lines, which were specially used by local artists for performances.

Qin Rou was a beauty-loving person, so she kept some cosmetics in private.

She looked left and right at the quotes of great men posted on the wall, and looked at the green satchel and hat with red star in the corner. She turned to look at herself in the mirror, especially the pair of familiar fox eyes, and couldn't help sighing.

Little did she expect that she would actually transmigrate in a book, and that too as a female supporting character in a 70's art troupe.

Yes, Qin Rou was a teacher in a kindergarten in Shencheng a few days ago. She was teaching children to do a paper-cutting activity when a middle-aged man who was suspected of being a parent suddenly broke into the classroom, intending to stab a child with a knife.

Qin Rou stood in front of the child. She hugged the little guy to dodge, but was stabbed in the back. When she woke up again, she became "Qin Rou" in the hospital with a high fever.

A cannon fodder supporting character with the same name and appearance as her.

Qin Rou: "…"

In her spare time, Qin Rou would read novels on the Internet to relieve her boredom. Before the accident, she had just read a novel about an art troupe in the 70s, but she had not finished the book, because she found that there was a supporting female character called Qin Rou whose name and appearance were exactly the same as her own.

That was okay, but the female lead was called Xue Tingting. When Qin Rou was studying at University, she participated in the Guangdong Province Campus Top Ten Singers Competition and won first place, and Liao Tingting got second place.

Qin Rou and Liao Tingting had no grievances or hatreds, and had not much contact with each other. Somehow, they were written into a novel and one became a supporting character, and the other the female lead.

Qin Rou, this fine supporting character, had a beautiful and charming face, but no brains. She acted like there was no law in the book. She opposed the female lead everywhere, tried to become a stepmother and robbed the show from her again. She never practiced singing well. Just relying on her natural timbre, she made a fool of herself in the performance, was embarrassed, and was rejected by the leaders…

After the development of the story, Qin Rou didn't continue to read it and laughed angrily. She couldn't stand it anymore, the female supporting character called "Qin Rou" was a clown, and would definitely not have a good ending.

If she knew in advance that she would become this fine female character Qin Rou, she would have definitely read the novel.

"Qin Rou, have you finished your makeup?" Zhou Xiaoling, who was wearing a rough cloth shirt and was going to perform an act later, walked to Qin Rou's side and called her, but she happened to see her face.

Suddenly, she was hooked by those fox eyes.

Qin Rou was beautiful, and at the time, she put on a beautiful but not very exaggerated stage makeup, giving advantages to her facial features.

She also had blush on her face, but not exaggerated. It seemed as if the natural blush smeared on her face after the rain, which was extremely beautiful.

Zhou Xiaoling's heart rate slowed. No wonder Qin Rou always said that Zhang Min made her ugly. From the look, it was true.

She subconsciously praised and said, "Qin Rou, you look so beautiful!"

Zhou Xiaoling's words attracted the attention of the people next to her. Zhang Min, Zhou Meilan and others also looked at Qin Rou's face. There were people who secretly inhaled one after another.

Not to mention the members of their art troupe, another member of the Zhouzhuang area art troupe was also amazed. A girl who was also a solo singer came to Qin Rou. She looked at her face and took the initiative to say, "Sister, can you also do my makeup?."

Qin Rou smiled and agreed, "Okay."

She had always been a girl who loved beauty, liked makeup, and had been a beauty blogger for a while. So she was extremely proficient in beauty makeup, and could do all kinds of makeup, not to mention that she was back in the 70s when makeup techniques were not advanced.

Qin Rou, who knew all kinds of makeup skills, knew very well how to magnify the advantages of a person's facial features.

Seeing Qin Rou smiling, the girl gasped, "Your eyes are so good-looking, we don't have a beauty like you in our group!"

"You help me to be more beautiful!"

There was no girl of that age who did not love beauty.

When Zhang Min saw the makeup on Qin Rou's face, her face turned extremely ugly. Zhou Meilan and several others who had makeup done by her felt that their eyebrows were not well drawn.

She secretly snorted coldly and said to Zhou Meilan, "She has nothing to be proud of, it will turn embarrassing when she gets on stage and opens her mouth to sing."

"I haven't listened to her practice a few times in the past few days."

"I heard her before, but she didn't sing."

One girl didn't listen, and was still concerned about Qin Rou's self respect, so she said, "Qin Rou did her make-up herself today, it's so beautiful. Zhang Min, you should learn from her, okay?"

"Bah, I won't learn from her."

"How did she suddenly learn to put on makeup so beautifully?"

"Maybe she went to learn from her sister."

"Her brother-in-law's family is showy but works on the farm."

Qin Rou's solo show was about to start.

Zhou Meilan pulled Zhang Min and the two to look around at the crowd. The auditorium was crowded. Some people were watching intently, while others were drowsy. The scene was not very lively.

When it was time for the curtain call, those drowsy people suddenly woke up and followed the crowd to applause.

Then there was another tumultuous silence.

Zhang Min and Zhou Meilan sneered one after another, "We'll just wait here to see Qin Rou's joke."

"No matter how good-looking she is, if she doesn't sing well on the stage, she will be turned into a joke. "

"Just wait, she can't sing well. Zhou Zhuang sang well just now."

…

Zhou Meilan saw that Qin Rou had walked to the center of the stage. The two of them were in the front row, so she could clearly hear them. The sound of sighs came from the crowd. As expected, the male soldiers were all stunned when they saw Qin Rou's vixen appearance.

The people behind didn't see Qin Rou's face very clearly, but they could guess based on her figure that she must be a beautiful woman.

The music sounded, and the woman's singing rang through the entire auditorium through the microphone. As soon as she opened her lips, the auditorium became silent in an instant, and no one whispered any more. At the moment, only the woman's gentle singing could be heard.

She didn't need too many musical skills to judge how well she sang, just that when her sweet singing sounded, people paid less attention to her appearance, and that moving voice was like a feather scratching in people's hearts.

And when the high-pitched sound rang, goosebumps climbed up on the arm unconsciously, not only the body trembled, but the soul as well.

After the song was sung, Zhou Meilan and Zhang Min's faces turned extremely ugly. Before the curtain call was over, thunderous applause broke out in the audience, and countless people coaxed, "Once more! Once more!"

"Once more!"

The crowd's response was so enthusiastic that Director Zhang took the microphone to maintain order and appease the guys.

Qin Rou sang the song "My Motherland". When she walked off the stage after the curtain call, her legs were still soft.

Her heart was beating so fast, she couldn't help but pat her chest, thinking to herself: It's terrible, they are all men.

Where had she faced such a battle?

Qin Rou started in the liberal arts class in middle school. There were more women than men in the class. Later, she was admitted to the Normal University, not to mention the number of boys in the class, for the entire Normal University, boys were a rare species.

Not to mention after graduation, she worked as a teacher in kindergarten, and she saw lovely and innocent children every day.

Standing on the stage and seeing so many unfamiliar men, Qin Rou felt an extreme sense of oppression.

Coupled with the fact that she was stabbed in the back by a middle-aged man with a knife that day, Qin Rou had a natural fear of unfamiliar tall men.

When she was on stage, she imagined them as kindergarten children, and then she sang steadily.

Looking back on that scene, she still felt terrified for a while.

Finally surviving the disaster, Qin Rou thought that she still had to quit her job in the art troupe as soon as possible.

It was not difficult for her to be a singer in the art troupe. Qin Rou liked to sing. It was common for her to sing and dance as a kindergarten teacher, not to mention that she had studied vocal music for several years.

As early as when she was in college, there were people from the entertainment company who wanted to find her to participate in the star-making audition, but Qin Rou's parents divorced and she was alone. She had no background and no rights. The Entertainment Industry was dangerous. For fear of being bitten by others, she did not. So she became a kindergarten teacher after graduation.

In the 1970s, in the special era, being a literary and art worker in the art troupe was indeed a good job to make a living.

It was just that for the current Qin Rou, the working environment was too bad. The former Qin Rou had a bad reputation, her colleagues secretly ridiculed her, and there was the female lead Xue Tingting who she didn't know whether was good or bad…

Qin Rou really wanted to leave that place.

The best choice was for her to change careers and become a teacher. That was her old job and it was easy to get started, but for Qin Rou, if she was not forced to, she didn't want to be a teacher anymore.

Qin Rou originally planned to quit her job as a kindergarten teacher.

She had been a kindergarten teacher for a year or two after graduation, and she already got experience with incoherent boys and girls. These little guys were half angels and half devils. As a kindergarten teacher, some babies (spoiled brats) angered her.

Primary school students were the upgraded version of Baby Bears.

Junior high school students were rebellious.

High school…the pressure of going to college.

She didn't want to be a teacher unless necessary.

No matter how good-tempered she was, whenever she got mad sometimes, a senior told her that she must have patience, otherwise she couldn't hold down the baby bears. Qin Rou really couldn't hold it back.

She also wanted to keep smiling and complimenting the good obedient children but the baby bears in the class were full of tricks.

They were too young to reason with. If she was too good, she would easily be kicked in the face by the baby bears. So she didn't want to continue being a teacher.

The matter of retiring from the art troupe was a long-term plan, and Qin Rou had to find a suitable new job first.

"I can arrange it!"

"It's a coincidence, we happen to have a girl named Qin Rou, a girl from Chuanxiang, who has a very hot temper."

"Okay…set a time for them to meet."

Director Sun hung up the phone. She couldn't help frowning when she mentioned Qin Rou's name. She was very dissatisfied with what happened to Qin Rou during the time.

It was also appropriate to arrange for her to go on this trip.

Director Sun also heard from the old leader that she was a thorn that was hard to deal with.

Qin Rou and the others returned to the courtyard of the art troupe, and other people who didn't go to the show immediately gathered around and asked them at a loss, "How was it?"

"We won the award."

"Who won the award?"

"Qin Rou's song won the first prize."

Others in the art troupe: "…"

That was huge news. No one thought that there would be such a day. Qin Rou's solo won the prize?

Xue Tingting was stunned for a moment when she heard that. She was chatting with two reporters from the provincial military art newspaper.

Qin Rou saw Xue Tingting, the female lead, and Lin Changyan, the reporter standing beside her, who was also the male lead of the original book.

Xue Tingting looked very similar to Liao Tingting, but she looked better than her in reality. She was the plastic surgery version of Liao Tingting.

And the original male lead Lin Changyan actually looked exactly like Lin Minghui, a journalism classmate in her university.

She and Lin Minghui once hosted theatrical performances together in the university. Many people joked that they were the golden boy and girl of the university. During the university, Lin Minghui chased her for three years, and Qin Rou did not agree to his pursuit until graduation.

Lin Minghui was a little over 1.7 meters tall and handsome, but liberal arts boys were not the type that Qin Rou liked.

Qin Rou liked a man who was over 1.8 meters tall, masculine and handsome, had a good figure, must have strong and beautiful chest muscles and abs, and exercised regularly.

But at the moment when she was in the Liaoning Military Region, she had met a lot of men who were over 1.8 meters tall and exercised every day, she who was only 1.64 meters tall and standing beside them, just felt oppressed and afraid.

If they beat her, she couldn't run away.

Putting these aside, Qin Rou glared at Xue Tingting. Needless to say, it was Liao Tingting who wrote this book. She wrote this kind of lewd romance novel with Lin Minghui?!

She wrote Lin Changyan, the male lead of the original book, the grandson of Mr. Lin, with an outstanding family background, while her, Qin Rou, as a female supporting character who tried to be a stepmother, screwed up the performance and also tried to grab a man with Xue Tingting.

She failed to seduce the male lead Lin Changyan. Later, she married a bad person, became the male and female lead's control group, and finally ended bleak.

(m. control group: characters portrayed in negative light to enhance the good qualities of the leads.)

Qin Rou sneered a few times in her heart.

She used to be a gentle person who didn't take the initiative to cause trouble, but rabbits could also bite people!

"Xue Tingting? Huh, reporter Lin is here too?" Qin Rou's makeup was still on. She deliberately walked in front of Xue Tingting, opened her lips delicately, and smiled charmingly at Lin Changyan.

Her smile was as bright as a spring flower, and those fox eyes were so captivating that they had an extremely visual impact. Even Xue Tingting couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

When Xue Tingting came back to her senses, she turned around and found that Lin Changyan was dumbfounded, and her face became extremely ugly.

Qin Rou didn't wait for the two to speak, and said softly in a green tea tone, "I'm sorry. I won't disturb you any more, I'll go to see Director Sun."

Hearing her tender voice in his ear, his eyes floated again. With her smile, Lin Changyan only felt his heart pounding for a while.

Her smile lingered in his memory.

Entering the office to see Director Sun, before Qin Rou said anything, Director Sun raised her eyebrows and asked her first, "How was the performance today?"

Director Sun was a married middle-aged female cadre who had short ears, thick eyebrows, wore a Chinese tunic suit, and held a huge enamel cup with a red-faced fat doll printed on it.

Qin Rou hurriedly said, "I won the first prize."

The reason why she reported so actively was because the leader had agreed in advance that if the performance was successful, there would be a bonus of 20 yuan and a meat ticket gift!

No matter what age it was, if one were not active in receiving money, there must be a problem with their thinking.

When Director Sun heard it, she was really stunned for three seconds. In the past few days, people always complained that Qin Rou was not active in practicing. She didn't expect that the girl would actually win the award.

It was amazing.

She was old now and her memory was not very good. As soon as she saw Qin Rou, she remembered that she has to say another thing first:

"Comrade Xiao Qin, put this aside for now. Now I have a special task for you."

"You'll go to meet someone," Director Sun took a sip of hot water and briefly explained the basic situation.

Qin Rou: "?!"

Director Sun meant… for her to go on a blind date?

That year, the organization also helped assign partners.

"His name is Lu Yan. He is twenty-five years old, not much older than you, and has never been married. He is currently studying at a naval academy in Bincheng. He is about to be transferred to the regiment chief of staff."

It was a cutscene, and in front of Qin Rou, she did not introduce Lu Yan's family background in detail, for fear of further twists and turns.

Lu Yan was a child of a well known family, the youngest son of the now-retired old commander Lu, and he had several older brothers and sisters. He was the youngest and smart, but he was the most naughty and bad-tempered since he was a child. He didn't get married, which broke the old chief's heart.

As a parent, he always felt that as long as his son got married, he would be mature and sensible, and the Lu parents were no exception. Taking advantage of his son's current studies in school, the old head pulled all connections and wanted to introduce him to someone.

In the beginning, Lu Yan was the candy that everyone competed for. He looked good, had a good family background, and had a bright future. However, in just three months, none of them agreed.

The source of the problem was Lu Yan himself. He had a bad temper and was used to reprimanding superiors and subordinates. He had little patience with women, and had no pity for them.

All in all, the last one didn't work out. After hearing about all Lu Yan's blind date records from his old comrades, Old Lu slapped the table angrily, "How can he be angry?"

"He still wants to act cocky like the king of spades?!"

"I want to pick a daughter-in-law with a hot temper who will scold him to death!"

…

After asking around, the old comrade in arms asked Director Sun. She thought of Qin Rou, who gave her a headache. Qin Rou also had an amazing record facing Mrs. Yang, so she casually told her about it and introduced her.

After leaving Director Sun's office, Qin Rou got a bonus of 20 yuan and five pounds of meat tickets. It seemed that Director Sun still felt a little in debt to her, so she stuffed her with an oversized enamel cup, saying that it was also a reward for her.

Qin Rou looked down at the enamel cup she was holding, or was it an enamel jar?! The cup was printed with flowers, and there was a big "hi" character. Visually, it was a large cup of 3,000 ml.

This kind of cup, if one took it to Mixue Bingcheng, they would reluctantly allow it. If one took it to another coffee shop, it was estimated that they could be kicked out.

(Mixue Bingcheng: famous dessert shop)

Qin Rou weighed the cup in her hand, thinking that the materials used in the era were solid, so maybe the cup would last for decades.

Seeing that she came out with a huge enamel cup, the eyes of many people in the art troupe fell on her, and Xue Tingting's eyes also fell on Qin Rou.

Qin Rou smiled at her. Lin Changyan, who was still talking to her, was no longer there.

Seeing Qin Rou's smile, Xue Tingting was not happy at all.

When Lin Changyan was chatting with her, he was frequently distracted. Could it be because of Qin Rou?

Qin Rou failed to marry Leader Yang, so she set her sights on Lin Changyan again? She really wasted her efforts. But if Lin Changyan and Qin Rou spent more time together, and after understanding her nature, he would never like this empty and beautiful vase.

At the moment, Xue Tingting was looking forward to Lin Changyan seeing Qin Rou's true face. But she was surprised that she cared about Lin Changyan. Before she knew it, she seemed to have a little affection for the young reporter.

"Qin Rou, what did Director Sun tell you just now?"

"Why are you still holding such a big enamel cup?!"

Qin Rou was holding a large enamel cup. The picture was so eye-catching. As soon as she returned to the dormitory, several roommates gathered around her.

She lived in the collective dormitory of the art troupe. The dormitory room was small. There were six or seven bunk beds in one room, as well as a few tables and chairs. Qin Rou slept on the top bunk of an iron bed by the window.

These upper and lower beds were extremely old, with green leather paint peeling off most of them, and they swayed when one climbed up. Three beds in a row were connected together. When one person climbed up, all three beds could be shaken together.

"Director Sun gave it to me as a prize."

"Really? Wow! What a big one!"

Qin Rou had a bad reputation in the art troupe. Most of the people in the dormitory didn't like her, but she didn't like them either. As for the people who were talking to her, they were plastic sisters. (fake sisters)

Few of these plastic sisters were reassuring. Although they were both persuasive and comforting on the surface, in fact, few of them were looking forward to her good life and were happy to watch her fail.

"She also asked me to meet someone called Lu Yan, who is a naval officer," Qin Rou briefly explained, ignoring the bonuses and meat tickets she had won. She focused on starting with the huge enamel cup, and finally threw out the big news.

Director Sun asked her to meet someone.

Qin Rou said that, but she didn't take it seriously. When she graduated as a kindergarten teacher before, there were so many people who wanted to introduce her to people, the principal, fellow teachers, the community… and even the children's parents.

If she met someone on a blind date, it was fine, she wouldn't die.

There was really no excuse for it. Qin Rou was afraid that people would pester her.

Even if Director Sun just gave a few brief introductions, Qin Rou knew that Lu Yan was in a good position. He became the chief of staff of the regiment at the age of twenty-five.

But Qin Rou was very self-aware. Director Sun didn't like her, and she had been in a lot of trouble recently. When that woman introduced her to someone, how good could it be?

There must be something wrong with the man surnamed Lu.

So Qin Rou said his name in a dignified manner to get some news. She didn't know him, but it didn't mean that others didn't. One must know that the military circle was not very big. There were no entertainment activities those days. Everyone loved gossip in private. If Lu Yan had some bad "reputation", then many people would have heard of his deeds just like Qin Rou's bad reputation.

"Lu Yan? That Lu Yan?! Qin Rou, you are miserable!"

Sure enough, someone had really heard of Lu Yan.

Qin Rou looked at the person who was speaking. It was Tang Ruibai, the loudspeaker in the group. It was said that her family had a relationship and knew a lot of gossip in the district.

"Why do you say so?" Luo Beibei, one of Qin Rou's plastic sisters, spoke before her, "That Lu Yan was married before?"

However, there was a strange suffocating feeling.

Luo Beibei smiled secretly. Since the incident with Mrs. Yang, there were really many people who wanted to introduce Qin Rou to a second marriage.

Qin Rou was beautiful, but she had a pair of seductive fox eyes.

"He is not married, and his family is fine. He's the youngest son of Old Commander Lu, who is in his twenties, but he just has a bad temper. His family asked him to meet many girls on a blind date, but he refused all of them."

"Do you know Xiao Ke, the nurse in the district hospital, the very beautiful one? She met him and cried for a long time when she got back."

"He is very fierce. Qin Rou, when you meet him, don't run and cry. That's all," Tang Rui smiled narrowly.

She felt that the meeting between Qin Rou and Lu Yan was the collision of two bullets. Lu Yan's temper was outrageous and Qin Rou was even more pungent.

– Could these two make it?

That was almost a fantasy! Unless the sun came from the west.

"Qin Rou, you are so beautiful, how can a man be fierce to you? He's from a good family, so you can take good care of it!" Hearing that, Luo Beibei smiled reluctantly. She didn't expect Lu Yan's family conditions to be so good. The youngest son of the old commander was still a single person, but he just had a bad temper, and was actually introduced to Qin Rou.

Qin Rou was just a little more beautiful.

Luo Beibei was jealous, but she was praising Qin Rou's beauty against her will, and encouraged her to take good care of the good partner "Lu Yan".

Hearing what Tang Ruibai said about Lu Yan, a reputable family son, who was notoriously thorny and did not eat hard or soft, (repulsive) how could Qin Rou eat such a hard bone?

Impossible.

The biggest possibility was that Qin Rou would think that he was from a good family as she wanted to climb high, and entangle with him. The man would think of her as a vulgar and coquettish girl, and finally let them see jokes.

She had to encourage Qin Rou to chew on the hard bone.

"Well, I'll take good care of it," Qin Rou felt relieved after listening to them.

Lu Yan didn't sound like a big problem. He had a bad temper, didn't know how to pity jade (girls)…

Qin Rou thought, 'I'm not his wife, so I don't care if he has a good temper. Do I have to care about his ignorance? I don't live with him…'

It was just a blind date with him, and he was not a dragon pond, could he still eat her?

He was more likely forced to marry by his elders, so he acted that way.

Such a blind date was also good, at least he wouldn't pester her.

Qin Rou nodded secretly: — As long as I have the correct attitude, I could fool the leaders and onlookers. It could also wash away Qin Rou's bad reputation.

Qin Rou climbed into bed, hid the money and meat tickets, and then got out of bed, intending to wash the newly obtained enamel cup.

Holding the enamel cup, she was speechless: Such a big enamel cup. Is it really just a cup and not a bowl?

The date to meet Lu Yan was set, the leader had a different kind of guilt toward her, and granted Qin Rou a day off by herself.

Qin Rou: "…?"

Was this army officer so scary?

It was clear that in the onlookers' eyes, the combination of a thorn like Lu Yan and her would have a terrible chemical effect, and it would make the scalp numb.

It was always nice to have a holiday.

Qin Rou went back to the dormitory, brought the money and tickets, put on a casual suit, and left the art troupe compound at 2:30 in the afternoon.

She first went to a department store and a non-staple food store, and then took a bus at Bencheng Bus Station. After more than an hour, she arrived at Muken Farm.

There were rows of brick houses in front that were surrounded by yards. The people had long since taken the production tools to work.

Qin Rou's arrival attracted the attention of many people. She counted the houses and came to a dilapidated private one. There were three floors of stairs in front of the door, and some green vegetables were planted on the side, but were trampled down.

The dilapidated door was covered with black mud donkey dung, and the paper-pasted windows had several large holes. Because there were people in the house during the day, the door was not closed, so Qin Rou pushed the door directly and entered the house.

As soon as she entered, Qin Rou saw a woman in an apron who was bending over to pick up stones and rotten leaves. Hard cow dung was scattered on the table, on the wall, on the ground… near the doors and windows.

The woman was wearing gray clothes and a white apron. The apron had long been covered with gray stains that could not be washed away. She noticed that someone was coming from the outside, and she was afraid that the person was going to cause trouble again. So when she looked up and saw Qin Rou, her eyes were full of surprise.

The woman had short ear-length hair, and her face was similar to Qin Rou, except that she had big, round almond eyes and thick lips.

When she saw Qin Rou, she was stunned and did not speak. The two children in the room squeezed out, surrounded Qin Rou and said happily, "Auntie!"

"Mom! Auntie is here!"

Qin Rou looked at Qin Mian with a smile and said, "Sister."

"Little sister, why are you here?" Qin Mian was very happy to see her own sister. She raised her hand to wipe her cheek, and turned her head. Seeing the mess at home again, she was embarrassed, so she quickly picked up the broom and swept it.

Qin Rou went to help her clean up, and said, "I won an award in the show, and today the leader gave me a special day off."

"My sister is awesome!" Qin Mian smiled. She reached out and knocked out Qin Rou's hand, "Why would you clean up? You take the children and sit there. Juanjuan, you go pour a glass of water for your aunt."

Chen Juanjuan was Qin Mian's eldest daughter, seven years old, and next to her was her twin brother, Chen Jinghua. The two children were very happy to see their aunt.

Because their aunt was there, there would be meat at home.

Qin Mian had no other relatives in Liao Province, just a sister. Every time her sister came over, she always cooked something delicious to entertain her.

Qin Rou was also close to her sister. She went to her sister's house whenever she had a holiday. The life of the Chen family was not very good. She could only have good food for one or two days a month, so Qin Rou went to Chen's house. The days had become the days when her sister and brother-in-law improved their meals.

The well-established rule had long been grasped by the clever children.

Qin Rou drank the water poured by her little niece and took a bag of white rabbit toffee from her bag to give to the two children.

Chen Juanjuan took two candies, "I'll go give one to my younger brother!"

Qin Mian glared at Qin Rou when she saw the candies, "Who asked you to spend money?"

"Sweets for the children, sister, you eat too," Qin Rou peeled off the candy wrapper and fed the candy in her hand to Qin Mian's mouth.

Qin Mian reluctantly ate the candy, and the sweet and milk fragrance in her mouth dissipated. Although her life was bitter, she still felt a little sweet in her heart.

She quickened her movement and laughed at her, "Eating sugar, sweeping dung and smelling bad."

"Where's my brother-in-law?"

"In the house, taking care of my father-in-law," Qin Mian lowered her eyes, not wanting to say anything more.

Qin Rou didn't ask again.

Her sister Qin Mian married into an intellectual family. Her brother-in-law Chen Mian was a teacher, and Qin Mian's father-in-law was also a teacher at a university in Bincheng.

Qin Rou's sister Qin Mian was from Chuanxiang. Their father died very early, and her mother found another man to remarry. At that time, Qin Rou was still young, and her mother only took Qin Rou, who was seven or eight years old with her.

Qin Mian stayed at her grandparents' house with the other two brothers. Later, at a chance, the young and beautiful Qin Mian met Chen Mian, who came to the south to meet friends. The two got married.

Qin Rou went with her mother, and had a stepfather. The stepfather also brought two boys. She was often bullied, and also developed her pungent temperament.

At the stepfather's house, she could barely survive at first. Later, when Qin Rou grew up to 12 or 13 years old, she became more beautiful, so her stepfather wanted to molest her.

She escaped from her stepfather's house and tried to contact her eldest sister Qin Mian. She felt sorry for her sister and suggested that she should go north to Liao Province.

Qin Rou was also a daring girl. She was a girl who alone at the age of thirteen or fourteen grabbed the train ticket and got on the train for a few days to the unfamiliar Liao Province.

When she came to her sister's house, Qin Rou finally felt the warmth of her family. Her sister was very kind to her. Because she was beautiful and had a good voice, she sent her to a local art school.

After graduating from an art school at the age of sixteen, Qin Rou first went to a regional song and dance troupe, and later was admitted to a cultural and art troupe. However, her sister and sister's husband's family was beaten and sent to the farm, where she lived a very tormented life.

The reason why Qin Rou wanted to marry Leader Yang was because she hoped to take care of her sister's family and make their life better.

"Don't do such a stupid thing again in the future. Fortunately, you didn't get married," Qin Mian didn't want to make fun of her sister's happiness.

Qin Rou nodded and agreed, "Sister, I'm sure I won't be stupid anymore."

Qin Mian sighed, "It's also my burden for dragging you down."

Her family was not good enough so it may delay her own sister's marriage.

"Sister, don't say that. If you and my brother-in-law hadn't taken me in, I don't know what my life would be like."

"We are sisters, do you still talk about this?"

When Qin Rou said these words, she felt warm and sour. She had the memory of the original Qin Rou, and also inherited some of her feelings.

Qin Rou was very attached to her sister.

Before transmigrating, Qin Rou's parents divorced early, and each had their own new family. She lived with her grandmother. Later, when her grandmother died, her parents didn't care about her, so Qin Rou lived alone.

Her grandma left several old houses for her, which were not worth much at first. She kept them and collected some rent to make money. Because of her love for her grandma, she never sold them. Later, they were demolished and turned into several suites. The housing prices in Shenzhen went up all the way. She knew that her wealth was not to be exposed, so she still lived an ordinary life, collecting some rent and becoming a teacher.

Although she had no worries about food and clothing, she had no relatives and no one to spend New Year's Eve with every year.

In the 1970s, although she was short of food and clothing, she had relatives who cared about her.

She decided to go with the flow. No matter how incoherent it was, she wanted to live a good life.

"Why did your tone change?"

"Sister, I'm practicing Mandarin." Qin Rou explained why her tone changed, "I want to take the radio station exam and become an announcer."

It was a suitable way for Qin Rou. An announcer was a good job in the era. It was much more comfortable than the art troupe and the salary was also high. It was a job that everyone envied.

Qin Rou studied in a normal school, and her major required a high level of Mandarin. In addition, when she was studying and working, she had a lot of experience in broadcasting and hosting. If she worked hard, she may be admitted to be the announcer of the era.

"Announcer? That's good! Sister, you have such a nice voice, you will definitely pass the exam!" To be a popular announcer in the era was not easy, but her elder sister Qin Mian did not dampen her self-confidence, and encouraged her, "I think your Mandarin is getting better."

The two sisters looked at each other and smiled.

"Qin Mian, your sister is here?" An old lady in blue walked in from the door. As soon as she entered the room, she stared at Qin Rou from head to toe like she was staring at a piece of meat.

Seeing her, the smile on Qin Mian's face faded.

The aunt said with a loud voice, "I told you earlier that I will introduce your sister to my eldest nephew. Being with my eldest nephew is better than her being a stepmother, right?"

"It just so happens that your sister is here, so it's better for her to go see my eldest nephew tomorrow!"

It was He Chunfang who spoke, and the eldest nephew she was talking about was a well-known second-rate boy near the farm, who was very lazy.

"My sister can't see your nephew, she has to go back quickly."

He Chunfang rolled her eyes and deliberately humiliated, "With your family's status, you still despise my eldest nephew? He is at least single, but your sister almost went to be someone's stepmother, and was harassed by the old lady. She was embarrassed and her reputation is stinking. If you were someone else, would you introduce any good man to her?"

"Now we all know that she has a charming face and is willing to be a stepmother. Yes, there are many divorced men in the army. Is she going to marry an old man? In the old society, this is called filling a house. Just looking at her face, everyone thinks she can be a concubine."

Qin Mian picked up the broom and was about to beat her out, but He Chunfang angered her while hiding, "What I said is bad, but it's the truth. I've heard people from her art troupe say that most of the people who want to marry her are divorced old men. It's better to marry my eldest nephew."

"Bah!" Qin Mian, who had always been gentle, trembled with anger.

"Sister, don't listen to her nonsense. My leader introduced the old chief's son to meet me. He is a young officer, in his twenties, and never married."

Hearing her words, Qin Mian was stunned, "Really?"

"Really!" Qin Rou nodded, "His surname is Lu, he is a naval officer, young and promising, twenty-five years old, and would be promoted to the regiment chief of staff soon."

She said something serious, and Qin Mian and He Chunfang were both stunned.

Qin Mian was pleasantly surprised that her sister's leader introduced her to a young and promising target.

He Chunfang was kicked out of Chen's house, and when she got home, she was still cursing.

Her husband Zhong Guodong asked her, "What's wrong with you?"

He Chunfang snorted, "It's that sister of the Chen family. Qin Mian's younger sister is charming and enchanting. She was ready to be stepmother before, but now she actually said that the leader introduced her to a young officer with a good family background. Bah, she's just bluffing. I'll wait a few days to see that officer of hers."

Her husband persuaded, "Why don't you get along with the Chen family?"

He Chunfang snorted, and glared at him. He thought that the sisters of the Qin family were very beautiful. After her family moved to the farm, her husband secretly looked at Qin Mian several times.

She couldn't see the sisters living a good life.

Qin Rou brought two catties of meat when she came. Qin Mian worked in the kitchen for a long time. At night, she cooked pork stewed vermicelli, eggplant stewed potatoes, pumpkin stewed potatoes, and also steamed a fish and a pot of boiled clams.

"Juanjuan, go call your father and grandpa for dinner," Qin Mian called into the room.

The little girl was so happy. She turned her head and ran inside, while Qin Rou and her eldest nephew brought a few pots of vegetables to the table.

The whole family came to the table, sitting in front of Qin Rou was her brother-in-law Chen Mian and his father Chen Yubai. Her brother-in-law was a gentle man with glasses. He used to be a gentle and elegant man, but he had become taciturn and did not like to talk much.

Chen Yubai, who was sitting next to him, was in a very bad mood. The old man wore a hat on his head. From time to time, he would raise his hand and touch the hat on his head, for fear that it was gone.

Qin Rou was sitting alone on the side, Chen Juanjuan and Chen Jinghua were on the opposite side, and Qin Mian was holding her four-year-old son Chen Jingyi on the other side.

Chen Jingyi sat on his mother's lap and played with the bottle cap in his hand with his head down. Even though he was four years old, he didn't speak much all day long.

When Qin Mian told Chen Jingyi to call her Aunt Qin Rou, the little guy lowered his head and ignored her for a long time.

Qin Rou leaned in front of him and took the initiative to say, "Jingyi, aunt is here to see you."

Her voice was clear and sweet, like the ding-dong of spring water, which was very pleasant, even Chen Jingyi couldn't help being attracted. He raised his head and looked at her blankly, but didn't say a word. Then he lowered his head and continued to play with the broken bottle cap in his hand.

When Chen Jingyi raised his head, Qin Rou was stunned for a moment. She found that the child's eyes were really big, big and black, and the pupils were darker than ordinary children.

Qin Rou looked at her sister Qin Mian with some hesitation. She actually suspected that the child might have autism.

"Jing Yi is the most obedient child. He's very easy to lead. He isn't like his brother or sister at all," Qin Mian pushed the hair from her forehead behind her ear and smiled reluctantly.

Qin Mian clearly knew that her youngest son had some unusual behaviour, which was different from normal children in other families. She felt bitter in her heart, guessing that it was the impact of the family's changes in the past few years on the child.

Who could be unaffected by the chaos? The child was too young to be frightened.

Not to mention the child, even the two adults in the family had become abnormal.

"Yeah," Qin Rou nodded and said nothing else.

In this situation, it was not suitable to say those things.

The two children, Chen Juanjuan and Chen Jinghua's eyes were on the pot of stewed noodles with pork in the middle. The dish was the best one in their mind.

At night, Qin Rou slept in Chen's house. Qin Mian asked her husband, Chen Mian, to sleep with her two sons, and her daughter, to sleep in the couple's bed, while she and Qin Rou slept in her daughter's bed. The sisters shared a bed.

With a dim yellow light bulb on top of her head, Qin Mian asked Qin Rou about the young army officer in a soft voice.

It was difficult for her to ask in detail when there were too many people. So when there were only the two left, Qin Mian could talk about it, "Did she really introduce a young naval officer?"

Qin Rou nodded, "Yes, his name is Lu Yan."

Qin Rou told Qin Mian all the information she knew. She also wanted to stop her sister from worrying about her. At the same time, she didn't lie. The leader introduced her to a "good" person.

As for whether it would be successful or not, that was a matter of the future.

Qin Mian finally believed that after she heard of Lu Yan's name and family situation.

"Then you have to take good care of it. When you meet him tomorrow, dress up nicely and speak sweetly…" Qin Mian told her earnestly, for fear that she would miss such a good person.

Qin Rou smiled and laid on the side, listening to her explaining things to her, telling her how to have a blind date, how to behave, and what to do if she would get married and become a wife…

It was said that the eldest sister was like a mother, and Qin Mian felt really like her mother.

"Why are you smiling just by looking at me? Did you hear what I said?"

Qin Rou smiled and nodded, "I did."

She grabbed Qin Mian's hand and looked at her sister's gentle face and couldn't help but murmur, "Sister, you're acting like my mother."

Qin Mian was stunned when she heard that, and then gave her an angry look, "Who was the one who held you to sleep when you were a child? When you were just born, I hugged you every day to coax you. Wherever you went, I held you. Am I your mother?"

"Do you want me to coax you now?

"Coax me."

"You think you're still a three-year-old child? Go to sleep."

Qin Mian woke up early the next morning, rummaged through the boxes and picked out a dress. When the Chen family was still in the doldrums, she had several sets of good-looking old skirts. She hadn't been willing to wear them a few times. They were given to Qin Rou before, but she didn't want them either. She said that she had clothes to wear in the art troupe.

But she had to choose a good-looking set for her.

Qin Mian boiled water, filled a water cup, and used the heat under the cup to iron the clothes. She ironed it several times before asking Qin Rou to change into it.

When Qin Rou came out of Chen's house, she had already changed her clothes. She was wearing a white top with a long blue pleated skirt, a straw hat with a sunshade on her head, and a beige bow tied around the brim of the hat.

Originally, she had snow-white skin, beautiful looks, thin arms and thin legs. At this time, the dress, not to mention the era, even if it was placed in modern times, it could be directly used in magazine advertisements.

Along the way, countless people turned back to look at her frequently.

Qin Rou lowered the brim of her hat and ignored their gaze. She got off the bus and walked to the courtyard of the art troupe. When the people at the door saw her, they were stunned for a while, and then said, "The man had arrived. He is in the reception room with Director Sun. Go in."

The "man" naturally referred to her blind date, Lu Yan.

"That army officer is really handsome!"

When Qin Rou entered the courtyard of the art troupe, she found that the atmosphere was completely different from that of the past. Those who practiced dancing and singing no longer did so.

Zhou Meilan, Luo Beibei, Tang Ruibai and others all went back, dressed up, and some secretly put on makeup.

Qin Rou couldn't guess what they were thinking.

Since the man came, if one failed, there were others.

If he accepted someone else, who would be embarrassed? It could only be Qin Rou.

When Zhou Meilan and the others saw Qin Rou's outfit, they gritted their teeth secretly. She also dressed up so well.

At the same time, they also secretly scolded Director Sun in their hearts. She did not introduce them to anyone, so why did she introduce such a young and handsome naval officer to Qin Rou?

Qin Rou looked at their faces one by one, turned her head and entered the reception room.

As soon as she stepped in, she saw a young man sitting upright. He was wearing a white shirt and army green trousers. The most striking thing was his tall and straight nose. He looked very handsome.

Qin Rou's breathing stopped for a while.

Was this Lu Yan?

They introduced such a handsome partner to herself?

Qin Rou looked at his face carefully. He must be born handsome. In addition, he had the kind of capable and chilling aura of a person trained in the army. His posture was upright. He was really a rare handsome officer .

No wonder the group of girls outside didn't sing or dance anymore, they all just sat outside and stared.

Even if they heard about the person's violent temper, they didn't care.

Not to mention Qin Rou, even Director Sun was taken aback when she saw Lu Yan. If she had known that the army officer was so good-looking, she would have introduced him to her niece.

But she had to let Qin Rou meet him first.

Director Sun thought that the two of them would not be able to make it. While Lu Yan was drinking water, she secretly called her niece and asked her to come to the art troupe compound.

At this time, she didn't care about his temper issue at all.

While Qin Rou was looking at Lu Yan, he was also looking at her.

Qin Rou walked over to him when he stood up and took off the hat on her head. Her long hair was still braided, but she just combed it casually and lazily.

Originally, her fox eyes were big and seductive. When she went out that morning, Qin Rou deliberately dulled the edges and corners with a few brushstrokes of light makeup, and her casual braids weakened the charm of her face. It was gorgeous, but added a bit of innocence.

Qin Rou swallowed her saliva gently. It was fine when Lu Yan didn't stand up. Once he stood up, she found that he was definitely taller than 1.8 meters, and the pressure was huge. His shadow shrouded in her head, and the handsome filter in front of her shattered in an instant.

…Fear.

She couldn't lose the battle. Thinking of the group of plastic sisters outside, Qin Rou tried her best to suppress her timidity. After the last performance, she had accumulated experience, and immediately tried her best to brainwash herself.

She didn't have much experience, but she had a lot of experience with a bear baby.

So Qin Rou showed a smile like a professional coaxing bear baby, and took the initiative, "Hello, Comrade Lu, my name is Qin Rou."

"Lu Yan," Lu Yan nodded.

The two sat opposite each other on the sofa.

No one spoke again, and the scene was extremely calm for a while.

Lu Yan clearly heard that she had a stingy temper, but he didn't take the initiative to pick things up. Sitting across from her without saying a word, it was unexpectedly taciturn.

Qin Rou decided to strike first and took the initiative to attack, "Comrade Lu, I don't think it's interesting for us to just sit and chat. Why don't we go watch a movie together?"

She thought that since she was taking the initiative, she must change positions quickly to occupy the best one. In a favorable position, it didn't matter whether she and Lu Yan's blind date was successful.

She clearly knew that the goal of her blind date this time was to keep the scene harmonious. As long as she and Lu Yan went through the blind date process peacefully, she would win.

It was better to let the scumbag who obviously didn't want to get married to give her a good person card.

—"You are good, but we are not suitable."

Then each would go back to their own place.

In that way, Lu Yan would successfully avoid a blind date and forced marriage, and she would have an additional ex-blind date with superior conditions, so it was win-win.

"Okay," Lu Yan agreed to the proposal to watch the movie, obviously he didn't want to be watched like a gorilla there.

Qin Rou secretly praised: This person is really good and cooperative!

It was not that difficult.

The two got up and were about to leave when Director Sun came. Seeing the scene, she was immediately stunned, "Where are you going? Why don't you sit and chat for a while?"

Qin Rou said with a bright smile, "Director Sun, I thought of going to watch a movie with the army officer."

Director Sun put her eyes on Lu Yan, who nodded.

Director Sun: "…"

The two of them sat together, one didn't quarrel, and the other didn't make a fuss, and they planned to… go to watch a movie together?

In her understanding, Qin Rou was shrewd, and would start to act as a demon as soon as she met people.

When her niece arrived, the man was gone.

Qin Rou and Lu Yan went out of the art troupe compound and took the bus to the movie theater in the city. When Qin Rou thought of the expression of the group of plastic sisters when she left, she thought it was funny.

She really wanted to stand proud for three minutes in front of them.

—I just like the way you look at me but can't beat me. Do you have the ability to follow me?

Qin Rou was immersed in the results of the battle just now, and the more she thought about it, the more comfortable she felt. Her brows and eyes were curved, and she smiled like a smug little fox.

She turned her head to look out the window, the more she thought about it, the brighter the smile on her face.

It was a good breath of anger.

After she got on the bus with Lu Yan, they sat down in the two free seats, Qin Rou sat by the window and Lu Yan sat on the side.

Qin Rou didn't take the initiative to speak, pretending to be looking at the scenery, and reminiscing about the comfort she experienced a while before.

Lu Yan's back was straight, his eyes were ahead, his body was tense, as if he could enter a combat state at any time.

He peeked at the person beside him, but skillfully kept her from finding his sight.

She smiled so beautifully. Her voice was also nice.

Lu Yan had never been so nervous in his life. On such a small bus, he was more nervous and excited than his first time on a ship.

He had lived for more than 20 years, and it was the first time he had experienced such a heart-pounding feeling.

From the first sight of her, Lu Yan's habitually flexible and clever mind began to knot, and until the moment, he had not fully recovered.

If the little girl beside him continued to smile, he might not be able to find his mind again.

Lu Yan fixed his eyes on the bus driver in front of him and tried his best to ignore the woman beside him. Only then did he feel his reason gradually returning to his mind.

The more he regained consciousness, the more he knew the strong desire in his heart. He wanted her, he wanted to hold her hand, he wanted to hug her, and he wanted to see her smile every day.

He thought of her smiling like a little fox and calling him "Army Officer" sweetly.

Just imagining the sound of "Army Officer" when she was talking to Director Sun and the smile when she looked out the window, combined, was like a color bomb exploded in his mind.

He thought back to that smile when they first met.

The explosion made him lose his mind, as if he had returned to the era of artillery fire.

On the small bus, Lu Yan organized what little sanity he had and tried to devise a combat strategy.

Although he had several blind date experiences in the past, even Lu Yan, whose brain was broken, knew that these past experiences could never be repeated.

He couldn't do that to her.

— Lu Yan, tell me, with your face alone, how many women like you? But with your stinky temper and your mouth, which woman can stand you in the future?

Lu Yan thought:

— Then try not to speak.

The less he said, the less wrong things may be.

First impressions were the most important.

Until the two got off the bus, they didn't talk on the way.

When getting off the bus, Qin Rou thought to herself that Lu Yan was just there to go through the process. It was the first time she had met someone who cooperated with her like that.

Qin Rou took the initiative to buy a movie ticket, and actively chose the best viewing location with the conductor. Lu Yan waited and paid when it was time to pay.

Qin Rou was not polite to him, and went to the side to buy three or four taels of melon seeds, put them in a paper bag, and gave some to Lu Yan.

The movie wouldn't start for a while, and the two of them wouldn't talk. So it was better to eat melon seeds.

Lu Yan didn't eat melon seeds usually, but when he saw her hand it over, he didn't refuse, and stood with her eating them.

Crack- Crack-

Qin Rou: "…"

It was probably the most silent and strange blind date she had ever experienced.

The army officer was so thorough.

Did he forget that he was there for a blind date? He didn't ask the usual questions about age, graduation, salary, and what was the requirement for his future partner. Didn't he want to say anything?

Didn't she hear that Lu Yan was a difficult person. Shouldn't he take the initiative to pick things up? It was strange to be so quiet…

While she was wondering, Lu Yan was also wondering.

He heard that the girl was like a little pepper, but it didn't seem so.

Lu Yan nibbled at the seeds and looked up at the sky. Occasionally, he glanced at the woman beside him. Seeing her pretty cheeks bulging slightly when she was chewing, why did he think…this little pepper was sweet?

It was in the strange atmosphere that the movie began.

After the two sat down, Qin Rou raised her head to watch the old black and white movie, and then looked at the handsome officer sitting next to her, this bear, oh no, the quick tempered but beautiful man.

It was dark all around, and the light on the screen hit his face, making his facial features more three-dimensional. His nose was really high and straight. His jaw was sharp and angular, giving people a natural sense of justice.

Looking at his face, it made people think that he should be a police officer or soldier with a magnificent image.

Director Sun seemed to have said that he was from Jiaodao, Shandong Province.

Qin Rou nodded secretly. As long as he didn't stand up, she felt very safe sitting next to him.

The two of them sitting together with such a style of appearance were actually very fascinating.

Qin Rou also knew that she was too beautiful and charming. She had an enchanting face and the man next to her had a righteous face. What did they look like together?

Like a goblin and a justice priest? Both were natural enemies.

If someone walked to Lu Yan, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Are you here to collect demons?"

Qin Rou had to explain to people that she, an innocent vixen, was really passing by.

Sometimes Qin Rou also admired her own brain, and blamed herself for having these eyes. Since she was a child, she was accustomed to being nicknamed as little fox, and now she had assumed the identity of a fox spirit, so she didn't find it strange.

Just when Qin Rou was thinking about it, the movie started playing.

Most of the black-and-white movies of the era were famous movies of the past. Although they were black-and-white, they were made with great care. Qin Rou watched and was fascinated by it.

She had another characteristic, that was, she was easily moved and cried.

Seeing the scene of sacrifice, tears streamed down her cheeks, but she couldn't restrain herself.

Qin Rou raised her hand to wipe her tears several times. The back of her hand was wet, she tried her best to hold back her tears and snot.

The actors of the era acted very carefully, and the soundtrack was even more tear-jerking. Coupled with the black and white, the simple dress, and the simple language, her tears could not be held back.

The person next to her handed her a tissue.

"Thank you…"

Qin Rou gratefully took it. Although she didn't know where Lu Yan got the tissue, she really needed it now.

After she had the tissue in her hand, Qin Rou simply indulged herself even more.

She didn't hold back her tears until the movie ended and most of the people next to her had left.

Wiping away the tears on her face, Qin Rou calmly realized that she still had a companion. She was now full of ugliness, but it didn't matter. Fortunately, it was the first and probably the last time they met.

After thinking about it, she didn't feel embarrassed anymore.

For Qin Rou, after she finished crying, she would have a very comfortable and calm feeling.

She walked out of the cinema with Lu Yan, and didn't care much about her image, so she decided to say goodbye to Lu Yan.

Two or three hours had passed since the movie, and they could go back.

"Comrade Lu, it's my pleasure getting along with you. It's late, so I'll go back, bye," Qin Rou smiled at him, her voice still a little hoarse from crying.

She was secretly proud of herself.

Lu Yan nodded. He looked at Qin Rou's red fox's eyes, which seemed to be filled with water. The water reflected his face, and the tip of her nose, which was upturned at the bottom, was dyed a little red. Suddenly, his mouth was dry. Trembling in the bottom of his heart, he said, "I'll drop you off."

"No, look, the bus is already parked there, I'll get on the bus!" Before he could answer, Qin Rou turned around and trotted to the bus, she waved forward, signaling the driver to wait for her.

When it was time to get on the bus, Qin Rou couldn't help but look back at him.

Lu Yan's figure appeared in her line of sight, and it had to be said that his appearance and figure were her ideal type.

It was just that she was "Lord Ye loves dragon", and it was not a loss to watch a movie with the dragon.

Qin Rou smiled and waved to him, then turned to get on the bus.

Maybe there would be no chance to meet him again in the future.

Lu Yan stood on the street and watched the bus disappear from sight. Even if she left, the corners of her eyes and brows were still in front of his eyes, especially her smile, which was like a little fox .

He turned his head to look at the cinema, looking at the place where the two of them were eating melon seeds together, a little smile appeared in his eyes.

She said it was a pleasure getting along with him.

Lu Yan nodded secretly, it seemed that his first battle plan was successful.

Miao note:

Lord Ye Loved Dragons: meaning that someone loves a certain thing outwardly, but not sincerely. Here Qin Rou likes strong muscular men but not with sincerity as she also feared them.

Story Lord Ye had a particular love for dragons. His house was "covered" in dragon designs, paintings, carvings – whether on his weapons, bed linen, chairs or walls. On hearing about his passion for dragons, a celestial dragon was so moved that it decided to honor Ye by paying him a visit. So, it descended to earth into Ye's bedroom. But Ye, the dragon lover, was so frightened by the dragon's visit that he ran away as fast as he could.

What Lord Ye loved was not the real dragon, but something that merely looked like a dragon.

Qin Rou returned to the art troupe compound.

When Zhou Meilan, Luo Beibei and others saw her red and swollen eyes, they immediately laughed in their hearts.

They didn't know how fierce the army officer was, that he scolded the little pepper and she cried.

What about Qin Rou? Did she get into trouble with the army officer?

They wanted to know, and they really wished they could see these scenes with their own eyes.

Qin Rou didn't talk to them about Lu Yan, and went directly to see Director Sun. As soon as Director Sun saw her eyes, she was overwhelmed.

But she still had to ask, "How was it?"

Hearing that, Qin Rou lowered her head and nodded shyly, "The officer is a good person."

She deliberately said such vague words.

Even if she wanted to refuse, it shouldn't be her refusal. As long as Lu Yan unilaterally refused, she wouldn't pester him.

Director Sun nodded, she already understood the ending, and she didn't ask any more questions, so she let Qin Rou go.

When they called to ask, Director Sun replied truthfully that Qin Rou thought that Lu Yan was very good, and said nothing else and hung up the phone.

Qin Rou took a bath and slept comfortably at night. She thought it was over, but Director Sun called her over on the third afternoon.

"Director, what's the matter?" Director Sun had a ghostly expression, "You agreed?"

Qin Rou was stunned for a moment, "Huh?" What did she agree with?

"I know you agreed. Lu Yan submitted a marriage application report after he went back, but there were still some procedures that should be followed, and some things I want to make clear to you."

Director Sun's own mind was a little confused now. She didn't know what happened after Qin Rou and Lu Yan went out to watch a movie that the marriage application report had already been submitted.

This… this this… the two of them really became a couple?

If she had known, she would have asked carefully that day, but the procedure had begun.

"Huh?!"

Marriage application report? With whom?!

Qin Rou was stunned by the word.

She and Lu Yan?

The mute guy went back and filed the marriage application report?!

"Come, take a look, this is some information Lu Yan asked me to send to you. He is going to be transferred to Qiongzhou Island as the regiment chief of staff, these are some materials."

"After I sign and approve it, you will be discharged from the army. You have to think about this matter clearly, but you don't have to worry, don't be afraid of hardships in Qiongzhou Island. You will definitely be able to do a good job in the resettlement work with the army. "

"Qiongzhou Island is also doing wasteland reclamation. The pre-conditions must be difficult. After you pass, you can also connect with the regional literary and art organizations over there, or arrange for you to work as a teacher or a nurse…"

Qin Rou's head was in a mess. So it was time to resettle?

Wait, get out of the army and go to Qiongzhou Island?!

Qin Rou blinked. Qiongzhou Island? If she remembered correctly, Qiongzhou Island at the time was Qiongzhou Island in Guangdong Province.

There seemed to be a seed sprouting in the bottom of her heart.

If she went to Qiongzhou Island…

"Think about it first. If you are sure, I will give you the approval and sign. Are you sure?"

"If you want to go back and think about it—"

"Sign!" Qin Rou's brain became hot, she bit her lip and said the word. She knew that to make decisions on many things, she needed a hot brain.

She knew she had gambling elements.

But she would never miss the opportunity in front of her. Although she didn't know if it was a fire pit, how about being bold enough to try it?

Coming out of Director Sun's office, Qin Rou was still dreaming, she… she… she… she just agreed to marry?

Marry that sullen, full of thorns officer?

In a trance, it was booming…

The news that Qin Rou was about to retire from the army and marry Lu Yan was like a bomb exploded over the art troupe.

"What? Qin Rou is going to marry Lu Yan?"

"The naval officer who came that day?"

"Wasn't her eyes swollen when she came back that day?"

…

Luo Beibei really didn't expect Qin Rou to be able to marry Lu Yan. He was the son of the old chief. What happened when they went out to watch a movie that day? Why was Lu Yan willing to marry the little pepper in their group?

They chatted and questioned Qin Rou, but Qin Rou said, "I don't know either."

Luo Beibei was crazy with jealousy, she thought to herself that Qin Rou must be pretending on purpose.

"Tang Ruibai, you are the most well-informed, do you know why?"

Tang Ruibai hesitated for a while, then she deliberately glanced at Qin Rou.

Seeing her reaction, Luo Beibei, Zhou Meilan and others were immediately curious. Could it be that there was really a secret there?

Tang Ruibai's behavior attracted Qin Rou, "What do you want to say?"

"Qin Rou, I don't know if I should tell you, or should hide it from you…"

"What? Hurry up and tell us!" Qin Rou's plastic flower sister Luo Beibei was eager to know the secret.

"As you all know, the army officer is a son of a well known family. There are several playmates who grew up with him, among them was a woman. The two were childhood sweethearts. Her name is also Tan Rou, but she got married two years ago."

"The army officer was reluctant to date someone before, probably because of Tan Rou."

"…Now he has met another Rou," Tang Ruibai told them what she thought. Most of it was her own associations. Her news network was wide, plus the similar names.

Could it be that this army officer couldn't marry Tan Rou, so he married… Qin Rou?

Otherwise, how could she explain that he was willing to marry Qin Rou the first time they met? He was even so anxious to submit a marriage application report.

"I heard that Tan Rou is a flower (beauty)." Tang Ruibai looked at Qin Rou and said, "You two may look a bit alike."

Luo Beibei subconsciously retorted, "How can we ordinary children compare with the children of other cadres? They are excellent."

"I'm not lying to you. You can go and find out from someone who came out of the same compound as him in our military region. Everyone knows that there was such a person who works as a nurse in Lu Province Hospital. "

Qin Rou: "…"

Tan Rou who looked like her?

Stand-in novel?

Qin Rou: "?!"

It didn't matter if she transmigrated in a novel, but it seemed to be a substitute novel. The only thing she was sure about was that Qin Rou in the novel was not married to Lu Yan, so it was weird.

In the naval academy in Bincheng, the second floor of the dormitory of Building 10, Wang Yuanzheng, like Lu Yan, belonged to this group of cadres who were participating in the training of current officers. They lived in a double room, and the two of them happened to sleep in the same room, and both of them would be transferred to Qiongzhou Island. But he was engaged in political work and was promoted to deputy political commissar.

What was even more ingenious was that they were the youngest two in this group of trainers. He was twenty-eight years old, and Lu Yan was twenty-five years old. Even more ingeniously, in the group of personnel, they were the only two who were unmarried.

Because the level of the training staff was not low, the age was naturally not young. Most of them were married, and some had four or five children, so the two of them were arranged together.

Even though they were all male officers, in fact, when men got together, they also liked to join in the fun and gossip, especially these married men.

Lu Yan's family wanted him to go on a blind date, and Wang Yuanzheng also felt that he was getting older. It was best to finish the task of marriage and family before transferring to Qiongzhou Island.

So they both got married at the same time.

The other team leaders were very active in introducing people to them, and they even made a bet on who could marry Xiao Lu and Xiao Wang.

In the beginning, everyone was optimistic about Lu Yan, because he was the best-looking guy, and he belonged to a good family. He didn't need to chase girls, girls wanted to chase him.

As for Wang Yuanzheng, who had a normal appearance, he patiently listened to the opinions of many elder brothers, humbly learned how to pursue a girl, and how to be a good husband after marriage.

The results proved that Wang Yuanzheng's efforts were fruitful.

He got together with the first girl he met in the hospital, but Lu Yan met one, two, three, four… Well, he had a great record.

And their training was almost over, the result had long been foreseen that Wang Yuanzheng would win.

There was no prize for the winner. The guys in the same batch said that "getting together is fate". If they really became a couple, everyone would put together some money and buy a "radio" for the new couple.

Everyone was a navy, and compared to the other four major items such as sewing machines, watches, and bicycles, the radio was the most suitable for their naval, island companions.

Hold your radio and guard the island!

A unique blessing that belonged to the Navy.

Originally, Wang Yuanzheng had long regarded the radio as his own, but something went wrong on the eve of an assessment.

The person he was dating, Ren Xiaoma's family suddenly felt that Qiongzhou Island was too far away. She was from Bencheng and went to Xinhua Bookstore to look up the map. She found that Bencheng was 3,000 kilometers away from Qiongzhou Island. So she agreed with her family and wanted to separate from him.

Wang Yuanzheng had fought for it, but there was no way out. A melon forced off its vine was not sweet. So he could only turn his grief and anger into strength, and review the assessment attentively.

(A melon forced off its vine was not sweet: forced marriage is not happy.)

He was afraid that it would be a lose-lose outcome, and no one would get the radio.

After finishing an assessment, Wang Yuanzheng returned to the dormitory, and saw Lu Yan lying on the bed.

Lu Yan folded his hands behind his head and stared up at the ceiling to empty his mind.

Wang Yuanzheng: "…"

The leisurely appearance, in Wang Yuanzheng's eyes, was sprinkling water on a hot pan.

While others were fighting against the clock in the night, some people were lying on bed.

He was also young and smart, and could get high scores in minutes.

"Let that group of people see you like this and have the heart to kick you out of bed."

The others had been busy with assessments in the past few days and had no time to care about the two of them.

When tests were over, they would gossip again.

Thinking of the scenes that he might encounter, Wang Yuanzheng thought that it was heartbreaking and painful.

Fortunately, there was Comrade Lu, who had an even worse state. At least he had succeeded halfway, but his comrade had not even started.

Lu Yan on the bed glanced at him lightly, and continued to empty his mind. He was in a good mood at the moment.

He didn't bother to fight him.

She had agreed. He got the signature, and it was done.

After Wang Yuanzheng said that sentence, he didn't hear Lu Yan's voice for a long time, and felt strange.

This was totally against Lu Yan's temperament!

"I submitted a marriage application report."

Wang Yuanzheng was so frightened by his words that it took him a long time to find his voice, "Comrade Lu, are you kidding? It's not funny."

It took less than five days before and after, everyone was busy with the assessment and review, but the person suddenly said he handed in the marriage application report.

Even if he started late, he wouldn't marry so early.

Lu Yan said calmly, "No kidding, she sings in the art troupe."

She was so beautiful, her voice was nice, her eyes were so fascinated that he lost his soul, and the way she cried was even more interesting… … Of course, these things shouldn't be told to outsiders.

"How many times have you met?"

"Once."

"You… you met once, but you are going to get married? What did you say? Do you know what kind of woman she is? Once you know her, can you take good care of the family?"

"Marriage is a lifelong event, how can you be so sloppy?! We are going to Qiongzhou Island soon, have you considered if she is willing to go with you? Why will she go to Qiongzhou island three thousand miles away from home?"

Wang Yuanzheng had repeatedly asked Xiao Ma if she was willing to go to Qiongzhou Island with him. Even if she was willing at first, later when she understood the specific situation, she disagreed.

Although he was sad, he could respect and understand her decision.

"This modern war is like a blitzkrieg war." Lu Yan gave him a sidelong glance, "Who is like you, babbling and procrastinating for so long?"

(blitzkrieg: surprise attack)

"Lu Yan! Your attitude is not correct! Compared to war, have you considered every aspect? Have you considered family life in the future?" Wang Yuanzheng had heard the words of countless people, thought it over and over again, and considered every aspect thoroughly.

"Lu Yan, you must have been kicked by a donkey in the head, right?"

"F*ck you!" Lu Yan rolled his eyes and scolded him.

Lu Yan felt that his mind was clearer than ever. He just wanted her, he wanted her crazily, and if a man wanted a woman, why did he still need to think so much?

"I'm about to go to Qiongzhou Island soon. If I don't act fast, wouldn't I miss her and she might become someone's wife? Even fools know that it's better to strike first, and it's more important to make a brand and stamp it than anything else."

Wang Yuanzheng: "…"

This Comrade Lu was really stubborn.

No, he had to find out what kind of woman he wanted to marry.

"Hey, this wild b*stard, this b*stard—"

Lu Zongyi gasped for a few breaths, cursing non-stop. As soon as Jiang Ping entered the room, she could hear the old man scolding the younger son, and she couldn't be bothered to hear it.

"Old Wang came to chat with you again?"

Since this time, every time Old Wang came, Lu Zongyi scolded his son, blaming him for being unsatisfactory.

Old Wang next door was Lu Zongyi's old enemy. They were both enemies and friends. They were always at each other's throats.

Old Wang next door had two sons and a daughter. In their Lu family, Jiang Ping gave birth to four sons and a daughter to Lu Zongyi. Although the eldest son died early, he had the second, the third, the fourth son and the third daughter. Yes, at least the number was better than Old Wang's.

Lu Zongyi had always been complacent about it.

Later, when the children grew up and wanted to start a family and business, problems began to arise.

Old Wang's eldest son got married when he reached the age of twenty. His daughter married at the age of twenty. Even Old Wang's youngest son married at the age of twenty five at the latest.

As for their Lu family, the second son got married when he was thirty years old, the third daughter got married when she was thirty years old, and the eldest had not married yet.

Because of that, Old Wang kept laughing at Old Lu, "My children get married earlier than yours."

Under the cynicism of Old Wang, Lu Zongyi pinned all his hopes on Lu Yan, hoping that the brat would fight for him and find a daughter-in-law to get a marriage license at least before the age of twenty-six.

But it was just that the heavens didn't always fulfill people's wishes.

Jiang Ping sighed, she also heard about her younger son's blind date record.

"Your ancestors had a late marriage, so don't struggle," Jiang Ping said. Comrade Lu Zongyi did not get married until he was thirty years old, and the two of them were regarded as revolutionary husband and wife. A comrade-in-arms, Jiang Ping was a military doctor before retiring.

"You—you know sh*t!" Lu Zongyi gasped, remembering what he heard on the phone.

His wife didn't know yet, and the problem was not the matter.

"Yes, I don't understand." Jiang Ping rolled her eyes, "You forced your son to see the last one, and you also searched for someone to introduce him to a hot-tempered girl. They saw each other, but didn't quarrel, what are you thinking about?"

Lu Zongyi: "…"

He was a little afraid to say it.

Lu Zongyi's scalp was numb, and he raised his hand and scratched his chin. He whispered beside Jiang Ping, "I suspect that you want to sing the opposite of me."

Jiang Ping glared at him, "That's what you deserve."

"My wife, you still don't know the seriousness of the matter. Just now, Lao Jiang called me and said that Lu Yan was going to marry that sassy girl, and handed in the marriage report."

Jiang Ping was taken aback, "What? Yan is getting married?"

"…Well, with that sassy girl. Old Jiang told me a few things about her, would you like to hear it?"

Jiang Ping: "…I seem to remember your son's temper is not very good."

Lu Zongyi: "You remember correctly!"

Jiang Ping: "…"

Lu Zongyi: "…"

Jiang Ping's scalp was numb, "Then tell me about our little daughter-in-law."

Because of Lu Yan's own situation, his marriage application report was a special case, and there were no background problems on both sides, so it was approved quickly.

Qin Rou didn't expect that the second time she met Lu Yan, she would be wearing a green military uniform and took a wedding photo in the photo studio with Lu Yan, who was wearing a navy white uniform, and then went to pick up the red book.

–Married.

There was no house, no car, no discussion about how to raise the children in the future, which primary school to put kids in and no dowry, and even the two of them didn't exchange a few words throughout the whole process, but they simply got the license and got married.

In the future, she, Qin Rou, was legally married.

The man next to her was her husband.

Qin Rou: "…" The two young people decided to get married so hastily, and they hadn't even passed the "meeting the parents" stage.

Qin Rou also didn't know why she was so sloppy.

The army officer did things directly without saying a word. She didn't dare to speak to the tall man. She didn't know what to say, let alone where to start, so she followed the steps.

According to the steps of the era, it seemed that something was not right. They were young people, so they didn't know if the dowry and wedding wine should be done.

Although Qin Rou didn't care about these things, she wondered if it was necessary for her to ask.

Just when she hesitated, Lu Yan put away the red book, took out a package and handed it to Qin Rou.

She took it and opened it to see that it was the great unity of passbooks and various bills.

"This is my salary and subsidy for the past few years. I'll give you all of it." After a pause, Lu Yan said again, "I'll leave it to you in the future."

Qin Rou: "…"

Could this be a salary?

Their navy should have more wage subsidies. These savings were not a small amount, so he just handed them over to her? Obviously they had only met twice, so they didn't seem to know each other very well.

But she had to say that his trust at this time had gained Qin Rou's favor. At least he was sincere.

Qin Rou asked, "Are you really giving it to me?"

"It's natural for me to support you," Lu Yan nodded.

He couldn't say anything else. Lu Yan naturally knew that it was not easy for her to follow him to Qiongzhou Island. Rather than talking about those false things, it would be better to directly provide material guarantees to make her believe that he would work hard to let her live well.

"After marriage, you have to follow me to Qiongzhou Island," Lu Yan mentioned casually, but every muscle on his body tensed unconsciously.

Qin Rou nodded.

Seeing her nodding, Lu Yan let out a sigh of relief.

"Officer, do you hit women?"

"I won't hit you. If I even hit my own woman, won't I be embarrassed?"

After hearing that, Qin Rou was relatively satisfied, and she was relieved. She had heard before that the man had a bad temper, but for now, there was no problem for the time being.

Of course, it may also be because they had never actually gotten along.

From what he just said, she could infer that he was the kind that cared about his reputation.

And his woman or something… Machismo was in his bones?

That was all, she would try her best to maintain his reputation in front of outsiders in the future.

Qin Rou originally wanted to ask about "Tan Rou", but she felt that it was unnecessary. Tan Rou was already married, and even if as a stand-in, Lu Yan married herself. His savings were with her, so what more did she need to ask for?

They didn't know each other very well.

It was said that marriage was the grave of love. The two of them had not yet been in love, but they first entered the marriage as strangers.

Perhaps many marriages in the era were like that.

Qin Rou looked up at Lu Yan's handsome face, thinking that it would not be a loss if she lived with that face.

"Lu Yan, let's live together in the future," Qin Rou extended a hand to him with a smile.

Lu Yan also stretched out a hand and held her slender and tender hand.

She would like to live with him.

That was really the most beautiful thing he had ever heard.

Liao Tingting transmigrated to the novel she store herself. She had become the heroine Xue Tingting.

The prototype of the heroine Xue Tingting in this novel was herself, the prototype of the male protagonist Lin Changyan was Lin Minghui, the senior she had a crush on when she was in college, and Qin Rou, the female partner with tragic end, was the prototype of the college girl she had always hated.

Both her and Lin Minghui's names in the book changed, but Liao Tingting did not make any changes to the name Qin Rou. Because she always thought that Qin Rou was beautiful, but she had no brains. With her arrogant personality, men would be addicted to her appearance, but if they got along, they would definitely hate the fox.

Lin Minghui chased her for three years, and Liao Tingting hated her for three years. After graduation, Liao Tingting accidentally ran into Lin Minghui, but found that Lin Minghui still had a crush on Qin Rou. She and Lin Minghui were in love with each other in the novel, but Qin Rou, who was coquettish and charming, worked back and forth to interfere and her end was tragic.

At this moment, she was Xue Tingting.

Xue Tingting looked at herself in the mirror, and her eyes flashed with satisfaction. Although she transmigrated in the 1970s, she was several years younger, and more importantly, she became a lot more beautiful as if she had done plastic surgery.

She still took over the heroine's role!

On the first day she transmigrated, Xue Tingting knew that Qin Rou, who she had always hated, also transmigrated. She escaped from the plot, won an award in the performance, and now she was going to marry Lu Yan.

The background board officer was originally used to slap Qin Rou in the face, but she never thought that they were actually going to get married!

Xue Tingting secretly hated that she did not write about the officer, but only wrote that he had a very good family background and ability, and Qin Rou stalked him and made everyone laugh…

But Qin Rou really climbed this background board!

What made Xue Tingting even more annoyed was that when Qin Rou faced the male protagonist Lin Changyan in front of "Xue Tingting", Lin Changyan, like the real Lin Minghui, was attracted by her beauty.

Qin Rou was really a seductive fox.

"Xue Tingting, aren't you going to practice singing today?"

"What's the matter with you these two days? Your singing skills are not as good as before."

Zhou Meilan, who was passing by, said a few times to her, making Xue Tingting's face extremely ugly, "I'll go in a while to practice."

Zhou Xiaoling next to Zhou Meilan couldn't help but wonder, "Qin Rou sang and won the award, but Xue Tingting has regressed."

"It's a pity that Qin Rou got better but she will be discharged from the army."

Her face got even uglier. She thought it was because she was not in a good state these days, and would never admit that she was not as good at singing as Qin Rou.

In the past, she thought that Qin Rou could win first place in the singing competition because she was good-looking, and the judges gave her more points for that.

Later, someone from the entertainment company approached Qin Rou, but the woman refused, so she went to propose herself, but was rejected by the entertainment company, which made Xue Tingting more firm in her thoughts and hate Qin Rou behind her back.

Now that she was the female lead, she and the male lead Lin Changyan would grow old together as a loving couple, while Qin Rou married a thorny officer.

Xue Tingting hoped that this naval officer was short-tempered and had many bad habits. It was best to be a domestic abuser, so that Qin Rou's life after marriage would be miserable, and she would be turned into a middle-aged woman with rough hands and a sallow complexion.

And she would be spoiled by the male lead.

Thinking of it, Xue Tingting's mouth twitched, and she couldn't help but bow her head and smile shyly.

"The Old Lady Yang is here again!"

"Did she come looking for Qin Rou? Qin Rou is not here!"

…

The movement at the door attracted a lot of people to watch the fun. Xue Tingting, Zhou Meilan and Zhang Min surrounded them. It turned out to be Leader Yang's mother, Old Lady Yang who was said to have been hospitalized by Qin Rou.

Mrs. Yang came to show off that day with the little country daughter-in-law she found. The woman standing next to her, Wang Fangfang, was the new daughter-in-law she chose for her son, and she chose a good stepmother for her grandson. Yes—Wang Fangfang listened to her mother-in-law in everything.

She came to warn the little vixen named Qin Rou, to not even think about her son, who was the head of the regiment.

"Call Qin Rou out."

Tang Ruibai said, "Qin Rou is not here."

"How can she not be here? Don't bluff, I know you don't have a few days off…"

"Qin Rou is going to be discharged from the army. "

"She's going to be discharged from the army?" Mrs. Yang was overjoyed, "Does your leader think she is a bad influence?"

"She's going to be discharged from the army and get married."

Mrs. Yang was even happier after hearing that, thinking that the reputation of this little fox after being scolded by her was rotten, so the women quickly found someone to marry.

"Who is she going to get married to?"

"It's an army officer."

Mrs. Yang was taken aback for a moment. An officer again, but this officer was definitely not as good as her son, "What rank is he?"

"The regimental chief of staff. "

Mr. Yang also didn't understand how big the regiment commander and regiment chief of staff were. The latter had a few more words than the former, and it seemed to sound more powerful. The little fox hooked an old man again.

"This man surnamed Lu should be in his 40s, how many times has he been married, and how many children does he have?"

"None"

"Well, how is that possible?"

Her son was the head of the regiment, how could Qin Rou marry a man more powerful and younger than her son?

It had only been a few days.

They must have lied to her.

Zhou Xiaoling's eyes were sharp, so she saw two people from a distance, "Look, the army officer over there is the man. He came to send Qin Rou back."

Mrs. Yang turned her head and saw a heroic young man standing beside Qin Rou. He wore a white uniform, and the red star on his hat shone especially in the sun.

What were the two talking about?

Seeing that, Zhou Meilan immediately urged her, "Aren't you looking for Qin Rou? Why don't you hurry up? Didn't you want to scold her for seducing your son?"

She wanted Mrs. Yang to cause trouble in front of Officer Lu. She wanted her to let the army officer know that Qin Rou was pungent, and she used to wish to climb up and be a stepmother.

The two secretly expected Mrs. Yang to act, but Mrs. Yang spat out a mouthful of phlegm at Zhou Meilan, which happened to fall on her shoes, "Bah, you have a vicious mind."

Although Mrs. Yang was a person from the countryside, she definitely was not a fool. She dared to come to the art troupe to make trouble with Qin Rou, because she knew that the girl had no background, and her sister was not good enough.

But with a man beside her, she with a bit of wisdom knew that she could "bully the weak and fear the strong". When doing things, she couldn't cause trouble for her son.

Those who encouraged her to make trouble were vicious.

"Fangfang, let's go," Mrs. Yang dragged her daughter-in-law and bowed her head.

Wang Fangfang had wanted to leave for a long time. She was a country girl, and was embarrassed in front of this group of young city girls who were flamboyant, but when she looked at Qin Rou, who was the prettiest, she felt incomparable.

She hurriedly stepped forward to hold Mrs. Yang's hand, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law walked away quickly. The two of them were used to walking on mountain roads in the countryside.

Xue Tingting was dumbfounded when she saw that, while Zhou Meilan's face was red, as a mouthful of green phlegm fell on her white shoes. She was so angry that she almost jumped up. These were the new shoes she saved up money to buy!

Qin Rou and Lu Yan made an appointment to see her sister and her family. Lu Yan said that he would take a day off in two days, and he would pick her up to go to Chen's house.

Lu Yan dropped her at the dormitory of the art troupe and left.

When they came back, the two bought a lot of things. Lu Yan accompanied her to the department store to buy a brown leather suitcase, as well as wine, tea and sweets, which were all packed in a suitcase.

After Lu Yan left, Tang Rui and Luo Beibei gathered around her. Qin Rou opened a bag of fruit candies and gave them a handful one by one, thinking they were all wedding candies.

Anyway, her plastic sisters did spend time with her, so she should always give them the wedding candies.

When Luo Beibei looked at the brand-new leather suitcase beside Qin Rou's legs, her eyes were about to turn red. The army officer was not stingy. He bought her a suitcase, but she didn't know what other goodies were in it.

With the fruit candy in her mouth, she couldn't taste the sweetness, but it was sour, "Qin Rou, do you really want to go to the island with the army officer?"

"That's not necessarily good. It's better to find a man from Bencheng to marry, and stay in Bencheng in the future."

Luo Beibei said sourly, "Qin Rou, Qiongzhou Island used to be a place of exile. The ancient prisoners were kept there. It's too late for you to regret it now."

Qin Rou wanted to go with the army officer to Qiongzhou Island. Luo Beibei was more concerned than herself. She went to a bookstore and searched for everything about Qiongzhou Island. Looking at the Qiongzhou Island at the southern end of the map, she envied that Qin Rou could marry a young and handsome naval officer, and then secretly hoped that life conditions in Qiongzhou Island would be difficult.

In that kind of hell, Qin Rou must go to suffer!

"Yeah, Qin Rou, why don't you think about it? It's too far, I heard that it is thousands of kilometers away!"

The traffic there was poor. Most people lived in a closed and small environment. The distance was really unimaginable.

"It used to be a place of exile? What kind of harsh environment is this? Qin Rou, can you really afford the hardship?"

"Qin Rou, you are too impulsive, the army officer is good, but he is going to Qiongzhou Island. Do you want to go to the island with him to suffer?"

Qin Rou smiled and said, "Don't worry about me, maybe I won't suffer. Have you ever heard a poem, 'I eat 300 lychees every day, and I will grow up to be a Lingnan native'."

She was originally a Lingnan native.

Tang Ruibai said, "I still eat lychees. When you get there, let's see if you can still laugh."

"Maybe once you get off the boat, you will come back crying in a few days."

After thinking about that, Luo Beibei looked at Qin Rou again and felt a bit more comfortable.

The officer surnamed Lu was reluctant to let someone else suffer, so he tricked the silly girl into a deserted island and made her suffer.

"After you go, be sure to write us a letter and send a photo!"

She would absolutely cry and clamor to go back.

"If we have a chance, we would definitely come to the island to see you."

Miao note:

Su Shi, a writer and a gourmet when exiled to Lingnan, was full of praise for Guangdong's lychees. He was willing to always be a Lingnan native for 300 lychees.

In the cafeteria, after lunch, Lu Yan and Wang Yuanzheng sat opposite each other.

"Lu Yan… Did you really think about it?" Wang Yuanzheng unscrewed the cap of the chili bottle. He was from Sichuan Province, and he couldn't live without chili peppers. He had to bring a bottle of chili peppers sauce made by his mother.

Some dishes must be served with chili.

"You share it with me, and I'll start eating chili peppers in the future," Lu Yan replied with a pun. As a person from Jiaodao, he didn't eat chili peppers before.

Now that he was married to a little chili, he started to try chili.

Wang Yuanzheng scooped a small spoon of chili sauce for him. The chili sauce his mother made was specially made by adding spices such as star anise and pepper. It was spicy and fragrant. The red pepper was spicy enough. The strange sweetness blended in the chili sauce, and it tasted extraordinarily delicious, in line with his liking, and he could eat several bowls of the chili sauce with rice.

Lu Yan tore open the steamed bun and dipped it in some chili sauce. After putting it in his mouth and chewing it twice, he was speechless.

As soon as Wang Yuanzheng saw his face, he knew that it must be very spicy, and he immediately laughed in his heart.

"Look at you, you would definitely have problems with your diet in the future."

Lu Yan said lightly, "I can learn to eat chili peppers."

Wang Yuanzheng: "…"

These words sounded vaguely familiar. When he and Xiao Ma were in a fierce fight, he talked about their future life every day. Xiao Ma was from Bencheng and didn't eat spicy food. Wang Yuanzheng boldly said that he wanted to follow her and not eat spicy food.

"Your family's hot sauce is good, send me a bottle," Lu Yan finished eating the steamed buns in two or three, and went back to the dormitory.

"It's good for you to marry a hot-tempered girl!" Wang Yuanzheng had already inquired about the girl that Lu Yan married.

Not to mention, Qin Rou really had some reputation.

Putting her together with Lu Yan's name made one's scalp tingle even more.

The two entered the dormitory, and Wang Yuanzheng caught a glimpse of the radio on Lu Yan's bedside. The radio was smaller than the popular radios currently on the market. It was modified by Lu Yan the previous night into an excellent one with clean and clear sound with very little noise.

It was the goods brought by Lao Xie.

After everyone heard about Qin Rou's reputation, they all silently paid and decided to give Comrade Xiao Lu a more expensive and high-end radio to express their blessings.

Thinking about it… Comrade Xiao Lu's life after marriage would not be easy.

Lu Yan glanced at the radio and sent Wang Yuanzheng a heart-wrenching sentence, "When you arrive at Qiongzhou Island in the future, you are welcome to my house to listen to the radio."

Wang Yuanzheng said the same thing to him a month ago, and now the original words were returned.

Forced to sleep in the same room as him, Lu Yan had no choice but to listen to this guy's countless imaginings about his future life. Political field officers like them were all long-winded guys.

Now a tick for a tick.

Lu Yan was lying on the bed with his hands folded behind his head, and he even whistled. He completely felt the happiness of the old team leaders.

– I have a wife, but you don't!

Wang Yuanzheng: "…"

The knife was inserted so accurately that Wang Yuanzheng almost couldn't lift it in one breath. After gasping for a few breaths, he gritted his teeth and said, "Comrade Lu, I want to see if after three months, no, two months, you can still happily say these words to me."

"Report! Lu Yan will definitely complete the task successfully!" Lu Yan got up and raised his hand to salute the report in one go, then laid down like a salted fish, whistling lively.

The brisk whistle sounded like a flag fluttering in the wind on a naval dock.

Wang Yuanzheng: "…"

The guy must be blinded by beauty! Although Wang Yuanzheng had never seen what Qin Rou looked like, he had heard of her name. The little pepper had a fiery personality, but was also a famous beauty.

Peppers were not something that ordinary people could bear.

What was more, the man was also a jerk himself.

At that time, the surnamed Lu would know that he was wrong.

"I'm leaving first, let's meet on Qiongzhou Island!" Wang Yuanzheng's training mission had ended, and he had to rush to Qiongzhou Island in a few days.

Lu Yan won the first place in several projects, and even ranked first in the overall ranking. He was asked to stay and teach other trainers for a week and a half, and then set off for Qiongzhou Island after the lectures were over.

Wang Yuanzheng gritted his teeth and secretly rejoiced that he and the man surnamed Lu both went to Qiongzhou Island. When he got to the island, he would definitely see with his own eyes to see how the couple lived after their marriage.

Comrade Lu, before you come to the island, your comrades will definitely prepare two bottles of wine. When that time comes, we will come to your house together. We will wait to see you drink the wine and pour out bitter deeds.

Hmm, prepare a few more bottles.

Qin Rou packed all her luggage. The regiment had held a farewell ceremony for her, took her military uniform, and she was officially discharged from the army.

She didn't have many things. She packed a large suitcase, plus the things sent by her comrades. She carried her things downstairs, and was picked up by Lu Yan.

Qin Rou couldn't help but admire him when she saw that he could easily hold it and walk effortlessly.

When she left the door, some people came to see her off.

Qin Rou glanced at Xue Tingting in the crowd, and she guessed that the current one was Liao Tingting.

She was the heroine in the book she wrote, but Qin Rou heard that her singing skills were not as good as before… In short, it was none of her business, and they would be far apart in the future.

She wished her an early pursuit.

She got in the car with Lu Yan and arrived at the farm. Thinking of seeing her sister Qin Mian soon, Qin Rou was very nervous. Last time she went alone, but this time she got married and brought her 'husband'.

Qin Mian probably would be startled.

When she got nervous, she wanted to grab something in her hand, but she was empty-handed. Lu Yan held all her luggage and carried so many things. He didn't sweat or was out of breath, and easily followed her into the farm.

Qin Rou glanced at the side face of the man beside her from the corner of her eye, and couldn't tell how he felt, but she had to admit that it was really good to have someone help her with things.

"You… can you walk slower?"

Qin Rou trotted to catch up with him who while carrying so many things was walking fast with his long legs.

After listening to her words, Lu Yan really slowed down.

When they arrived at Chen's house, the wine and sugar cakes that they brought to the door for the first time were all taken out.

There was no need to knock on the door as Qin Mian happened to be busy at home.

Qin Rou drilled her head, went in, and sneakily shouted, "Sister."

Qin Mian felt both strange and surprised. It had only been a few days that her sister went back. She came at the unusual holiday time. When she went back, her sister was going on a blind date with a young officer, and she didn't know what happened.

She was excited and hurried to the door, trying to pull this sneaky little girl into the house, but when she got to the door, she found that there were many outside her house.

—All came to watch the excitement.

As soon as Qin Rou and Lu Yan appeared near the farm, they attracted the attention of many people. They were familiar with her as she was Qin Mian's sister, but the tall man in military uniform beside Qin Rou was very eye-catching.

Where did such a young and handsome young man come from?

There were no entertainment activities in that era. As long as something unusual happened, the work at hand would be left aside, and everyone would come out to watch the fun.

"You are—" Qin Mian was at a loss, why did so many people follow her sister, what happened to her sister?

Extending her head may lead to beheading, and shrinking her head may also lead to beheading. Qin Rou pointed her head at Lu Yan and introduced, "Sister, this is Comrade Lu Yan I told you about last time. We got married."

Lu Yan on the side greeted politely, "Because I'm about to be transferred, I submitted a marriage application first. I didn't come to visit my sister-in-law beforehand. I hope you forgive me."

"What?!" Qin Mian was hit by that sudden bomb.

She looked at Lu Yan with a dull gaze… married?

Didn't she say that she was going on a blind date the last time she came back, but got married now?

Then she found out that this little brother Lu was really handsome! The facial features were particularly heroic, the bridge of the nose was straight, and the eyebrows were bright.

OMG! This handsome little brother was her brother-in-law! A young naval officer!

Qin Mian gave Lu Yan the way and instructed him to put things in the house, then quickly took Qin Rou's hand and pulled her aside to whisper.

Qin Rou's heartbeat accelerated, she thought Qin Mian would blame her for her hasty marriage, but who knew that the gentle sister gave her a thumbs up.

The elder sister sighed, "Sister, you are so smart!"

Qin Mian felt that she didn't need to ask any more questions, things were already clear.

The little brother from the Lu family looked reliable at first glance. He looked upright and generous, and was so handsome. It must be her girl who dragged him to get a marriage licence.

How could she blame her? Before she got married, Qin Mian was illiterate, but after marrying a literate person, she got more knowledge over the years.

Like the girls in the mountains, they were not as strict as literate people. The stories she heard since she was a child were all singing folk songs when she met the man she loved.

They had left their hometown, and only the two sisters were left. The younger sister Qin Rou was looking for a husband. As long as the girl was willing, she had nothing to say as a sister.

What was more, after meeting such a handsome young officer, it was good to settle down quickly, or her sister to start fast.

Qin Rou: "…"

—How smart?
