Han Yijian saw her coming over and quickly waved, "Awake? Are you cold?"
Lin Wan didn’t respond to him, sat beside him and asked, "Where did the fish co from?"
"Got it from the ss hall. It’s almost done."
Looking at the fish, Lin Wan felt a warm sensation in her heart and leaned her head on his shoulder, complaining, "I told you I was joking, and you actually got it for ."
Han Yi turned his head and lightly kissed her forehead, smiling, "Touched?"
Having her feelings discovered, Lin Wan glanced at him with embarrassnt, saying nothing, but a smile lingered on her face.
Lin Wan saw the fish was about done, so she got up, added water to the pot, and cooked the dumplings left over from last night.
Luckily, the weather is cold now, so they hadn’t spoiled. The fish wasn’t big, a little over a pound, and most of it went into her stomach.
Lin Wan felt odd. Isn’t it said that pregnant won react strongly to the fishy sll? But she loves eating it!
Having slept all afternoon, Lin Wan couldn’t sleep at night, so she let Han Yi sleep first while she sat at the bedside knitting a scarf.
Han Yi couldn’t sleep either and sat with her. Watching her knit stitch by stitch, he soon learned it too and demonstrated it for Lin Wan with the scarf.
Smart people are different; after watching for a few minutes, he was knitting like a pro. Then Lin Wan ended up watching Han Yi knit.
"Tomorrow, I’ll ask about the team vehicle. If it’s available, I’ll drive you ho after my class at night. If not, we’ll wait for the ss hall bus early in the morning the day after tomorrow."
"Don’t bother, I can just take the procurent bus ho. Borrowing a car from the leaders wouldn’t look good for you."
"It’s fine, I know my limits. I’m not comfortable with you going back alone."
"...Okay."
The next day, once Han Yi left for the team, Lin Wan stopped being lazy, taking a basket and heading to the vegetable garden behind their house.
When she reached the garden, Lin Wan realized she didn’t know which plot was theirs.
"Lin..." Soone greeted her whom Lin Wan didn’t recognize, maybe they didn’t know her full na either, so they smiled and said, "I think we’re about the sa age."
"I’m twenty this year, how about you?"
"I’m twenty-one."
Lin Wan laughed, "We seem about the sa age, let’s drop the formal titles. I’m Lin Wan; you can call Xiao Wan or Xiao Lin."
"I’m Shi Lan, just call Xiao Lan. I live in front of your house; our houses face each other. I just joined my husband in the military; he’s with the Third Brigade, Second Regint."
"Hello, Xiao Lan, I’m Han Yi. I’m the wife of Captain Han; Han Yihao seems not to be a company or battalion commander, just called Captain Han in the team."
"I know you and your husband," Shi Lan smiled shyly. "My husband ntioned you."
"What a coincidence! In the future, we can visit each other often; it’ll be nice to have soone to talk to." Lin Wan had a good impression of Shi Lan.
"Sure... By the way, are you looking for your vegetable garden? This should be yours." Shi Lan pointed to a nearby plot full of cabbages and radishes, quickly explaining, "A few days ago, I saw Sister-in-law Zhang here, and she ntioned it while chatting."
"Thank you. You..."
Shi Lan smiled awkwardly, "I’m here to pick a cabbage from Sister-in-law Jiang’s garden."
"Pick from ours, I don’t co here often, and Sister-in-law Zhang helps take care of it. We don’t have any cellars for storage, so when it snows in a few days, it will freeze and spoil. It’s no good for eating."
"Thank you, Sister-in-law Jiang ntioned there’s a small market nearby, but it rained yesterday, and I’m afraid they didn’t set up. I thought of going tomorrow. But today, there’s no vegetable to go with food."
