The Soul Reborn

32. Meet

The message Zhu Haimei wrote on top of the medicine box was: 'I know you hate me, but don't hate these drugs either, because these drugs are life-saving.'

Until before Shen Dongyuan boarded the plane, the sentence continued to echo in his mind. 'Zhu Haimei is completely different from before', he thought to himself.

A few days later, Zhu Haimei worked in the vegetable fields every day. He focused on learning about how to grow vegetables to Kak Huang. Zhu Haimei also bought some carrot seeds to plant.

Brother Huang said, "What are you doing to plant this? It doesn't taste good."

Zhu Haimei was shocked to hear the words just now. "Carrots also have the name of small ginseng, because carrots contain a lot of content that is beneficial to the body. In addition, the bakpao filled with carrots and eggs also tastes very delicious."

Brother Huang was even more surprised after hearing Zhu Haimei's explanation. "Carrots can also be cooked into the contents of a bakpao?"

"Yes, if we put more oil and eggs in the stuffing, the bakpao would definitely be very delicious." Zhu Haimei answered while cleaning his hands off the ground. "After harvesting carrots, I will teach you how to make them. But instead, teach me also how to make white mustard pickles."

Because Kak Huang's family came from northeastern China, so when talking about white mustard pickles, Kak Huang who knew a lot about the food began to talk at length. The two of them chatted and laughed until noon, then brought Qiang Qiang home.

When Zhu Haimei had just finished cooking and was preparing to eat his food, there was suddenly a knock on the door. He rushed to open the door and there was a young soldier standing at the door. With a breath of breath she asked Zhu Haimei, "Are you the wife of Captain Shen?"

Zhu Haimei nodded. "Yes, what's wrong? Did something happen to Captain Shen?"

The young soldier then waved his hand quickly, "Sister-in-law, don't speak carelessly. The family in Captain Shen's hometown called and said Captain Shen's mother had fallen unconscious. He's still getting help in the hospital and they're telling Captain Shen to make a decision."

Zhu Haimei was suddenly stunned. Her mother-in-law fell and was still unconscious, but what did it mean that Shen Dongyuan had to make a decision?

The young soldier looked at him with a look of wonder and said, "Sister-in-law, don't be sad. Since Captain Shen isn't home, how about you go back home to see him?"

Zhu Haimei wanted to say, 'I am not sad'. But come to think of it, it would be wrong if he said that. Zhu Haimei then immediately replied, "Have you recorded the phone number?"

"I recorded it."

"Can I call using a military phone?"

The young soldier answered with doubt. "What if Brother-in-law follows me there first? I'll ask the Colonel (Commander of the Battalion) for permission first."

Although every day Zhu Haimei was used to being awakened by the sound of military yells and was also used to seeing the strong posture of the soldiers at the training ground, but he was greatly shocked when he came to this military territory for the first time. Yel-yel sounds and the sounds of soldiers training were heard everywhere. The voice made the spirit of the soldier to be positive and passionate. It turned out to be the true warrior spirit

The young soldier took Zhu Haimei to a three-story building. There were two soldiers holding weapons standing at the door. Zhu Haimei waited for the young soldier outside, but his eyes kept looking inside.

Suddenly a girl wearing a light green top came out of the building.

The girl was holding the arm of a middle-aged man who was wearing a military uniform and looked very dignified. Zhu Haimei spontaneously withdrew. Upon seeing the girl's face, Zhu Haimei thought that the girl was very familiar.

He then heard the girl say, "I don't care, when he comes back later, Dad should let me interview him." The girl was complaining, but her tone sounded a little spoiled.

"Yes, I know. You keep talking about it until my ears ring."

Zhu Haimei suddenly remembered that he had met the girl. The girl is a journalist who once took a photo of Shen Dongyuan while he was capturing a pickpocket. If he heard from his tone just now, did he want to interview Shen Dongyuan?

The soldier standing guard then suddenly shouted, "Good afternoon, High Officer."

The old man was asking the two soldiers who had just greeted him. The two men answered simultaneously. "We don't know."

Zhu Haimei smiled slightly and wondered if he could speak as honestly and firmly as the two of them. They looked cute in front of Zhu Haimei. "Please don't blame them. I'm here to borrow a phone, because there's something urgent going on at home."

The middle-aged man did not immediately respond to Zhu Haimei's remarks, but the female journalist pointed at him and said, "Are you Shen Dongyuan's wife?"

Zhu Haimei then nodded. "Your thought is really good."

Guan Tongtong immediately widened his eyes after hearing Zhu Haimei's reply just now. Wasn't his wife's words not only fat, but ugly and slovenly, and her words were full of bad words?

But once he met Zhu Haimei in person, the difference was very far.

Although Zhu Haimei was not slim and slightly fat, but he was not as obese as the people said.

His face was ordinary, not ugly. His body is also quite clean. And if they say he's slovenly, that's too outrageous. However, the way people described Zhu Haimei sounded pleasant to Guan Tongtong's ears.

When the young soldier carrying Zhu Haimei there came out of the building and saw the middle-aged man. He took two steps to approach her and saluted her. "Deputy Commander Guan's Military, Colonel Cui invited Captain Shen's wife to come in and make a phone call."

Zhu Haimei was shocked. No wonder the female journalist was able to get in and out of this military area, it turned out that she had a relationship with the Deputy Military Commander here. In the Jiang City Military Region, the Deputy Military Commander was considered to be the second Commander whose position was quite high.

Vice Military Commander Guan then waved his hand. "Go."

Before leaving, Vice Commander Guan looked at Zhu Haimei meaningfully and made Zhu Haimei's heart thump. What does that look mean?

To be honest, Zhu Haimei was very nervous when he called the Shen Dongyuan family. After all, he was not the owner of the real body. He had not communicated with his family for a long time since he was reborn here. He only sends money or sends goods and never communicates directly.

The phone model in the room is still an old model phone that is gray. After Zhu Haimei dialed his phone number, a female voice replied. The woman shouted in a hoarse voice. "Who are you looking for?!"

Zhu Haimei was stunned after realizing that it was a pay phone. Then he said carefully. "Hello, someone called this number. Has that guy left?"

"Are you from military territory?"

"Yes, right." Zhu Haimei answered quickly.

"It's a pay phone. I'll call the guy who called you, call him back in five minutes."

Zhu Haimei then put down his phone awkwardly and said to the soldier standing beside him. "Sorry, wait a minute. He asked me to call again in five minutes."

The young soldier quickly said, "It's okay, Brother-in-law just use the phone." Then the soldier whispered, "This is Captain Shen's office. You've never been here, have you?"

Zhu Haimei was surprised to learn that Shen Dongyuan also had an office. Then he looked around. There were two living sofas with a tea table in the middle of the room and there were cups and ashtrays on it. The ash looks clean. In addition, there is a work desk whose color is slightly fading and a chair with the same color behind it. The cupboard behind the chair was filled with an archive envelope. His desk looked neat and clean, with a phone and a penholder. Also a cup of tea on top.

Rarely is there a man whose desk is so clean. In the past, Zhu Haimei had about two or thirty male coworkers in the company he worked for. Their workbench is very messy, except for the manager's desk which is cleaned every day by the cleaner.

Zhu Haimei could not help but smile as he looked around Shen Dongyuan's neat work space. One's character could be seen from his workbench, and Shen Dongyuan was truly a principled person and was not easily swayed. Simply put, he was a stubborn man.
