The soldiers cheered and began to eat. They wolfed down their food and almost swallowed their tongues.
Braised pork, pork, cabbage, stewed vermicelli, and white steamed buns were very common dishes in the future. In this era of lack of resources and economic backwardness, it was an extravagant hope for most of the Chinese people at that time.
Even if they were decent servants, they would usually only be willing to eat such a big meal during the new year.
Xu Guoren had also trained for half a day, so he felt that his appetite was so big that he could eat an entire cow. He ate with great relish with everyone, as if he had returned to the time when he first entered the military camp.
Time always flew by. In the blink of an eye, a month had passed. After a month of basic training, coupled with the daily supply of fish and meat, all the servants, including Xu Guoren, had a great improvement in their physical fitness.
Guoren Xu worked harder than others. When others were sleeping and resting, he would also take some time to train hard. Therefore, he had already built a body of muscles.
His stamina and other abilities had improved greatly compared to a month ago.
Xu Guoren was getting impatient when he saw the servants repeating the boring training subjects every day. He understood that the basic training was almost done. It was time to train them in live ammunition and other technical and tactical training.
Therefore, Xu Guoren asked Zhang Jinhu, who had been promoted to the vice-captain of the guards, to lead everyone to continue training. He and Xu Gensheng drove away from the manor and headed for Jiang City.
Long before the closed training began, Xu Guoren had reminded his father to help prepare a batch of army weapons, including a hundred rifles. It would be best if they were Zhongzheng rifles. The newer ones made in Hanyang were also acceptable. Twenty Mauser pistols, ten light machine guns, as much ammunition as possible, and some grenades.
Today, Xu Guoren planned to go back and take a look. How was the preparation for him from his cheap father? Why hadn't he sent it over yet?
As soon as the car entered the Xu family's courtyard, Xu Guoren saw his deadbeat father coming out of the living room with a dark face when he heard the sound of the car.
Xu Guoren thought to himself, could something have happened? Why was his father's expression so ugly?
Xu Guoren jumped out of the car and walked over with a smile."Dad, why have you lost weight recently?"
"It's all because of you, kid." Xu Tianyang was holding a smoking pipe in his hand. He pointed at Xu Guoren angrily and reprimanded,"You little bastard. You just got married and you're already leaving your wife hanging like this. You haven't returned home for a month. Do you want to anger your father to death or something?”
Xu Guoren heaved a sigh of relief." So it's because of this? It gave me a fright!" Father, it's not like you don't know that I'm in the training camp. Is there a need to be angry over this?”
"Why not? I promise you to form an army, but don't think about fooling me about having children!”"Nothing is more important than having a grandchild," Xu Tianyang said angrily.”
"Dad, calm down. I promise to come back often in the future, okay?”"Father, have you bought my batch of guns?" Xu Guoren asked with a fawning expression.”
" Hmph!" Xu Tianyang snorted." I bought the gun, but I won't give it to you unless you agree to one of my conditions!"”
Xu Guoren was eager to take the shot and immediately blurted out,"Tell me what the condition is, and I will definitely agree.”
"Take Qianwen away too. This way, I won't care how often you come back.”Xu Tianyang said with a crafty expression.
"Father, aren't you making things difficult for me? The training base was filled with men. It was not suitable for Qianwen to go there alone! Moreover, it will affect my prestige. Now that our family's guards are in the initial stage, I need to set an example and share weal and woe with everyone. Only then will they be able to obey my orders in the future.”"So, I can't agree to this." Xu Guoren immediately shook his head and refused.”
"Bastard, even if you don't agree, you have to agree. Otherwise, don't even think about getting the gun!”Xu Tianyang flew into a rage and turned around to enter the house.
Xu Guoren felt a little helpless. At this moment, Chu Qianwen rushed over after hearing the news. She might have heard the argument between Xu Guoren and Xu Tianyang.
He looked at Xu Guoren and whispered," Don't be angry with my father-in-law. I'll go with you first. I'll come back later. I won't cause you any trouble. I'll help you get what you want first."”
Xu Guoren looked at her in embarrassment and said,"Qianwen, it's not that I find you troublesome, but it's really inconvenient. After all, there's a group of men there.”
"I know. I understand what you're saying.”"If you want to do something big, I won't hold you back," Chu Qianwen said.”
"Thank you. If you want freedom, I will return it to you after I finish my work.”Xu Guoren said sincerely.
Suddenly, Chu Qianwen's tears of grievance started to flow uncontrollably. The sparkling tears rolled down her cheeks, adding to her charm that made people feel pity for her.
Xu Guoren could not bear to see this. He immediately turned his head away as if he did not see it. In fact, he had lived two lives. How could he not understand that Chu Qianwen's attitude towards him had gradually changed?
However, Xu Guoren was determined to protect his country. The War of Resistance Against Japan was about to break out. He was not in the mood to think about love, because everyone knew that bullets had no eyes. If he was glorious that day, he would really harm Chu Qianwen for the rest of her life.
Therefore, Xu Guoren would rather make her sad now than make her sad and hopeless in the future.
There was a saying that goes, if you don't want to disappoint others, don't give her hope at the very beginning.
With Chu Qianwen's help, Xu Guoren successfully received the batch of weapons and equipment. He used two carriages to transport them all back to the training base.
When the car arrived outside the manor, Xu Guoren got out of the car and glanced at Chu Qianwen, who was in a low mood. He gritted his teeth and instructed Xu Gensheng,""Gensheng, send your sister-in-law back. Be careful.”
"What? Isn't sister-in-law coming to live with you?”Xu Gensheng was a little surprised.
"What ah? Listen to my orders, go!”Xu Guoren pretended to be angry.
Xu Gensheng did not dare to disobey, so he had to start the engine again. However, just as he was about to turn around, Chu Qianwen, who had been sitting in the back seat without saying a word, suddenly pushed open the car door and jumped out.
Xu Gensheng was so scared that he quickly stepped on the brakes. Xu Guoren even urgently helped her up."What are you doing? Are you crazy?"
Chu Qianwen broke free from Xu Guoren's hand and glared at him with tears in her eyes.""What do you want? I'm your wife. You don't come home every night. Why do you still want to ask me?“
Xu Guoren was a little stunned. This little girl had always given him the impression that she was gentle and weak. He was really not used to her sudden outburst.
"Didn't we have an agreement?”Xu Guoren scratched his head.
"Xu Guoren, are you a man? Since I married into your Xu family and bowed to the heavens and earth with you, I'm a member of your Xu family. You still want to give me my freedom? A letter of divorce?" The more Chu Qianwen spoke, the more upset she felt. Her tears could not stop falling.
"Then what do you want?" Xu Guoren felt a headache coming on. In his previous life, he had never been in love. Sometimes, he really did not understand these women. It was clearly you who did not let me touch you first. What are you up to now? As the saying went, a woman's heart was like a needle in the sea. No one could guess it.
"Since you hate me so much, then I'll leave. I won't let you see me again.”After Chu Qianwen finished speaking, she turned around and left.
Seeing that the sky was almost dark, Xu Guoren quickly chased after her and grabbed her wrist."Stop right there!"
"I won't." Chu Qianwen wanted to break free, but her strength was less than one-tenth of Xu Guoren's. She was held tightly by him.
"Let go of me!" Chu Qianwen struggled with one hand and hit Xu Guoren with the other.
"It's too late, it's not safe for you to be alone. If you want to leave, take a car and I'll get Gensheng to send you!”Xu Guoren said.
"I don't want you to care!"
"Then you're not allowed to leave." Xu Guoren's temper flared up. He pulled her in front of him and held her waist with his other hand.
Chu Qianwen only felt herself being held by a strong arm as she leaned against Xu Guoren's firm chest. She could not help but feel a little lost in her emotions as she sniffed the masculine scent emanating from his body.
After struggling a few times, she lay on Xu Guoren's chest and cried out loud.
"Do you know that I haven't been able to sleep well or eat well in the past month? I've been thinking about you every day. I admit that I didn't like you before and thought that you were immoral, but you're completely different now.”Chu Qianwen cried as she pounded Xu Guoren's chest. She was like a little wife who had been wronged.
She would probably only act like this in front of Xu Guoren.
Just as Lin Ruohan had said, the current Xu Guoren was a man who cared about his country and the world. He was upright and righteous. He was a rare good man. After spending so much time with him, her impression of Xu Guoren had already changed subtly.
She had unknowingly fallen in love with him, but she didn't even know it.
It wasn't until today when Xu Guoren said that he would give her freedom back that she realized how upset she felt when he said those words.
Xu Guoren's heart softened. He hugged her and revealed a rare tender side."Actually, I don't hate you at all. You're so beautiful and gentle. You're the wife that countless men dream of. However, in the near future, no matter what, I'll lead my troops to the front lines to protect our country.
I'm afraid that I'll never return, so I don't dare and can't promise you. Do you understand?”
When Chu Qianwen heard Xu Guoren's words, she gradually stopped crying. She looked up with tears on her face and looked at Xu Guoren tenderly. Suddenly, she stood on her tiptoes and took the initiative to kiss Xu Guoren on the lips.
"No matter what you do in the future, Qianwen will have no regrets and be your wife for the rest of her life!”Chu Qianwen said something that Xu Guoren would never forget.
Heroes loved beauties, but beauties loved heroes even more. Back when she was in university, Chu Qianwen already had a clear standard for choosing a spouse. Her husband could be poor and untalented, but he had to be a great hero who could stand up to the heavens and the earth!
Xu Guoren's words made Chu Qianwen admire him even more. The adoration in her heart rose to the extreme. It made her feel that this was the person she had always dreamed of.
In this life, to be able to marry such a good man, even if she died, what would she be afraid of?
