Who Would Have Thought He Would Give Her a Military Salute!

At the same time, Aunt Gu was walking home and met Chu Wei halfway. She smiled and said, "Why are you here? Your man should be home. Aren't you going back?"

Chu Wei patted the newly bought bedding. "There's not enough bedding at home, so I came out specially to buy a new set. I'm going back now."

Aunt Gu nodded and wanted to say something. In the end, she sighed and held it back. Chu Wei did not think too much about it. She carried Chen Ying and rushed home with the blanket.

After locking Chen Ying into the house, Chu Wei went straight to the main house. The eldest sister-in-law wanted to stop her from following Chen Ji to the army so Chu Wei was afraid that she would lie to Chen Ji in private.

As soon as they entered the courtyard, the eldest sister-in-law warmly greeted, "Sister-in-law, you don't have to cook tonight. Chen Ji just happened to be back. Let's eat at my house."

Chu Wei took a glance and decided not to say anything. Zhao Jinli was acting like a human today. There was a big goose in the pot and a few rare dishes that she usually could not bear to eat by the stove.

Seeing her cooking in the courtyard, Chu Wei heaved a sigh of relief. It meant that Chen Ji went to see his mother-in-law directly and did not give his sister-in-law any chance to gossip.

Chu Wei ignored her and walked around two rooms before entering her mother-in-law's hut. Chu Wei was a little surprised as the house was very clean today. A pot of jasmine gave off a faint fragrance.

Her mother-in-law, Li Jinhuan, was lying on the bed with a blanket covering her legs. On the wooden stool beside the bed, a man wearing a military uniform was sitting with his chest puffed up and his head raised. He looked imposing.

Seeing that she was here, the man suddenly stood up. His military cap was right next to the roof of the hut. Chu Wei almost didn't recognize this man.

"What happened? Why did he turn so fair?" Chu Wei was puzzled.

As her eyes met the man's, Chu Wei felt more and more unfamiliar. After not seeing him for six years, the man had changed a little too much. When she was young, he was playful and lost his balance once, causing a scar on his forehead. Now, the scar was so faint that it was almost invisible.

Before, his brows were filled with hostility and his face was trembling violently, giving off a fearsome aura. But now, his eyebrows were clean and fine, and his nose was tall and handsome. Especially his chin, it was round and smooth, as if he was a different person.

She had known this man since she was young. She had seen him causing trouble outside all day long and doing whatever he wanted. Not to mention how he would not be beaten into submission by others, he would not even be cowed if Father Chen hit him with a stick. That face of his was always fierce.

In her dream, Chen Ji was to become a very powerful person in the army in the future. However, it made Chu Wei feel more unfamiliar with Chen Ji. Although the two of them had not seen each other for six years, the photos that Chen Ji occasionally sent back always had a long face as if everyone owed him something. In any case, she could not tell from the man's face that he was a leader.

However, seeing Chen Ji today completely changed her previous impression of him. He looked handsome and valiant. Was this still the person she had waited six years for?

The Chen Ji in front of her had a fair and beautiful face. It was exactly like what the book in her dream said. Chen Ji was handsome. He was a hero but he had a narrow-minded wife. Because she only gave birth to daughters, she felt inferior. She was always worried that Chen Ji had other women outside. Whenever a woman looked at Chen Ji, she would be jealous.

Everyone in the military compound despised her. They felt sorry for Chen Ji and wondered why he would marry a woman like her?

Chu Wei never thought much of it. Dreams were dreams. No matter how accurate they were, there would be a lot of unreliable content. She had been extremely familiar with Chen Ji and almost remembered all the hairs on his body. How could Chen Ji become so handsome? Moreover, she was young and beautiful. Only Ding Shujuan could compare to her in the town. She never felt that she was worse than Chen Ji.

Now, not only did she believe in this dream, but she was also very angry. The appearance that she had always been proud of had actually been surpassed by this man. Six years ago, she had married this man who was detestable. Six years later, she had taken care of the household chores alone, brought up two daughters, and made herself into a haggard woman. The man had become prettier instead, and she found it hard to accept.

Taking a deep breath, Chu Wei said, "Little brother, you're back!"

From the day she met Chen Ji, she had been calling him little brother. It was the same after they got married.

Chen Ji happened to be wearing a military cap. He placed one hand on the front of his pants and raised the other hand slowly. He gave her a standard military salute. His actions were smooth and fluid. A crisp salute sounded in the hut.

"Xiaowei, it's been hard on you all these years!" Chen Ji stared at Chu Wei and said firmly.

Chu Wei was stunned. Never in her wildest dreams did she expect him to give her a military salute. Although Chu Wei never believed that he would beat her up, it would have been normal for him to scold her.

What was even more surprising was that not only did Chen Ji's appearance change, his voice also changed. It was deep and magnetic, as if she was listening to a radio host.
