Du Yue waved her hand. “I heard people say that the third base has moved here, so I wanted to come and see you and Brother Wan. Now that I see that you’re doing well, I’m relieved. I won’t go to the tent. Sister Yu, you also know that I’m a person who has always preferred the quiet and doesn’t want to be in a crowd.”
This was not an excuse. When they first met, Du Yue and He Xing were already like this. Yu Xinya also understood this point. When she heard that Du Yue was unwilling to go, she did not persuade her anymore. She only asked, “Then where are you staying now?” Since everyone was stationed on this grassland, they would definitely have to visit each other in the future. Of course, they would have to exchange addresses with each other.
Du Yue pointed in the direction of their place. “If you have time, come over anytime. If you have any difficulties, you can come and find us.”
Before Yu Xinya could speak, Wan Dapeng beat her to it and said, “Alright! When we have time, we’ll definitely pay a visit! What are you living in now? In an RV? We can give you the portable house that you lived in back on the third base. We thought that if we met again in the future, we would return it to you.”
Wan Dapeng scratched his head in embarrassment.
“Look at what I’m saying. Du Yue and the others are already living in an RV. Is there a need for a portable house? The RV is definitely much more comfortable than the simple wooden house.”
Du Yue would be lying if she said that she was not surprised. She also did not expect that Wan Dapeng and the others would still remember to bring along their wooden houses after they moved to the grasslands. Other than surprise, Du Yue was more curious. “How did you bring such a big house here?”
“I tore it down and brought the parts here! It’s such a big house. If we don’t demolish it, we’ll need a separate truck to carry it,” Wan Dapeng said. “You know the situation in the small courtyard. There are no extra cars to transport a house alone, so we tore down the house and tied it to the roof of the car to bring it over.”
Du Yue nodded. “Thank you for your hard work, but we don’t need that temporary house anymore. Why don’t you use it? Although it’s a little shabby, it’s still a little more comfortable than living in a tent.”
Wan Dapeng hesitated. “We’ve already lived a good life for a long time thanks to you. How can we ask for your house for no reason?”
“Why can’t you?” Du Yue chuckled. “Aren’t houses built for people to live in? We don’t need it now. Instead of wasting it, why not give it to people who need it? Besides, if you hadn’t brought the house with you back then, it would be collecting dust in some corner!”
Wan Dapeng turned to look at He Xing. “Brother, what’s your suggestion?”
“We have no objections!” He Xing said directly. No one could react to what he meant, but the boy standing at the side could not help but laugh out loud.
Du Yue and the others were attracted by his laughter. Seeing that everyone was looking at him, the boy was so scared that he immediately stopped and looked a little nervous.
Seeing that he was very uneasy, Du Yue smiled at him. “You don’t have to be nervous. You helped me find the right people. According to our agreement, I’ll pay you.”
When the boy heard this, his eyes immediately lit up. “Thank you! I want to wear something warmer!” Du Yue did not find the boy’s request strange. Instead, she thought that he was very smart. After all, it was the Eternal Night now, and the temperature was getting lower by the day. Who knew how much it would drop in the future?
Under such circumstances, rather than asking for food that could last for a few days, it would be better to wear clothes that could protect one from the cold.
Du Yue nodded. “It’s no problem. How about a military coat?”
The boy nodded repeatedly. “Alright, alright! Of course! Thank you!” The boy, who had long experienced extremely cold weather, knew that a thick military coat was warmer and more wind-resistant than an ordinary cotton jacket.
“It’s at home. Come with us to get it.” As soon as she finished speaking, Du Yue added, “If you don’t want to go too far, you can also go to the encampment of Sunshine Courtyard and wait there. 1’11 get them to bring you the military coat.”
The young man lowered his head and said with some embarrassment, “It’s okay, I can go with you..”
