There were still five days before the Chinese New Year. Early in the morning, Lin Yuzhen and her family of three came to Ming Leyao's home and asked her to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some things for the New Year. Ming Leyao had nothing to do, so she locked the gate and left with them.

"Xiaobao, do you miss your aunt?"

Ming Leyao saw that Xiaobao's big black eyes were staring at her, so she lowered her head with a gentle smile and held the little guy in her arms.

"I miss my aunt."

"So good, such a good baby, shouldn't he be rewarded?"

When Xiaobao heard about the reward, his eyes lit up.

"Mom said that good kids will be rewarded."

"Okay, okay, Auntie will give you a reward."

As he said that, he took out a handful of candies from his pocket and put them into the little guy's pocket.

Seeing this scene, Lin Yuzhen patted her child's head with amusement and said kindly, "You..."

Wan Xin stood by with a smile on his face. He had previously thought that the captain's wife was difficult to get along with, but he didn't expect that what his wife said was really true. The captain's wife had a really good temper and could coax children. The children in the captain's family would definitely not be bad in the future.

Several people walked towards the supply and marketing cooperative, talking and laughing. During the walk, Wan Xin was afraid that Ming Leyao would be tired of holding the child, so he took the child and held him in his arms.

In fact, with Ming Leyao's current physical strength, she could easily climb a mountain carrying the little one, but she didn't want to show it too much, so she handed the child over.

The supply and marketing cooperative was crowded with people. There were people gathered in front of each counter, talking about what they wanted to buy. The sales clerks were so busy that they didn't even raise their heads. They skillfully wrote out orders and loaded the goods for everyone.

"There are too many of these people."

"Then I'll stand by and wait with the child in my arms. There are too many people inside, and we don't want Xiaobao to get lost in the crowd."

"That's fine. I'll go in with my sister and take a look."

The two of them quickly merged into the crowd. Ming Leyao didn't have much to buy, so she asked Lin Yuzhen in advance what she wanted to buy. Then they decided to split up and go back early after buying everything.

Nowadays, there is no such thing as queuing to buy things. People try their best to squeeze in. In addition, the supplies are limited, and it depends on luck to buy. Ming Leyao, who felt this atmosphere for the first time, relied on her own skills to squeeze to the front and quickly said a few things. The salesperson happened to have nothing to buy, so he quickly gave her a bill...

I squeezed out of the counter with the order and came to the cashier area. Because there were people maintaining order, it was orderly. Soon it was Ming Leyao's turn. I paid the money, got the stamp, and squeezed back with the order.

When she came out, she was holding a net bag in her hand and her clothes were a little messy.

This 'power' of the people...

It’s really big.

"Big sister, you're so fast?"

"Yes, big sister, have you finished shopping too?"

"Almost done. I wanted to buy some candy, but they're all sold out. I'll come over tomorrow morning to check."

"Okay, let's go home and have lunch at my house today."

"Okay, then I won't be polite to you."

Lin Yuzhen thought that this kind of relationship could only last long if there was give and take, and there was no need to force it, which might ruin the relationship. She had finally met a girl she liked, and she couldn't lose her like that.

Seeing the two people coming out, Wan Xin hurriedly took the things, holding the child in one hand and carrying the things in the other. He is worthy of being a soldier, his physique is really amazing.

Before they had walked far, they saw Tan Shu, who looked haggard, leading Jian Shanshan, who looked reluctant, and hurriedly walking towards the state-owned restaurant next to the supply and marketing cooperative.

Originally Ming Leyao didn't want to say hello to them, but when Jian Shanshan saw her out of the corner of her eye, she simply grabbed her mother and came over.

"Ming Leyao, are you satisfied now? My dad is retiring, and I can no longer marry Brother Wen Cheng."

As he spoke, his eyes instantly turned red, as if he had suffered a great injustice.

Ming Leyao was speechless.

Is this person mentally healthy? Even if Political Commissar Jian didn't retire, how could she still marry Fu Wencheng?

Jian Shanshan's voice was quite loud, and there were people around buying New Year's goods. Everyone had the same desire to watch the fun, and they all set their eyes on a few people...

It was the first time that Xiaobao was being paid attention to by so many people. He was a little nervous and went straight into his father's arms, burying his whole face in it.

Lin Yuzhen and Wan Xin have been married for several years. She doesn't know all the people in the military compound, but she knows Jian Shanshan and Tan Shu. After all, they are the political commissar's family. In addition, her husband has told her about the rumors in the military district recently. She immediately understood that Jian Shanshan's purpose in stopping them was not that simple.

Seeing everyone pointing fingers at Ming Leyao, Lin Yuzhen stepped forward and said with a smile on her face, "Sister Jian, what are you talking about? Captain Fu and Sister Leyao have already obtained a marriage certificate. How else do you want to get married? Don't make such jokes."

Lin Yuzhen's words were also an indirect slap in the face to Jian Shanshan.

Jian Shanshan looked so pitiful that she almost couldn't hold on. She turned her head to look at her mother, signaling her with her eyes to come and help.

Tan Shu was a little hesitant. Her husband, Jian, had told her father everything that had happened during this period. After hearing it, her father called her back and scolded her. He almost broke off relations with her and warned her not to return to that family if she couldn't manage Jian Shanshan and himself well.

Now seeing his daughter rushing forward without caring about anything and talking nonsense, Tan Shu regretted for the first time that he had not educated his daughter well. If what happened today were to get to her father's ears, it would probably not be so easy to resolve.

"Okay, Shanshan, we have things to do today, let's go."

"No, I won't leave. I don't want to go on a blind date. Are you my biological mother? I just like Brother Wen Cheng, so what? Why can a country bumpkin marry me but I can't?"

This was the first time that Tan Shu was accused by her own daughter in front of so many people. She was incredulous. She grabbed Jian Shanshan's hand and angrily scolded her in a low voice, "Have you forgotten what your grandfather said? How long do you want to make trouble? Fu Wencheng is already married. Do you know what you are doing?"

"What's wrong with getting married? Can't you get a divorce after getting married? It's all Dad's fault. Why did he mention retirement? If he still sits in that position, I just need to talk to Brother Wen Cheng nicely. I don't believe he can't see my good side..."

Jian Shanshan has now fallen into a state of obsession. Her only central idea is to marry Fu Wencheng. She has not considered whether the other party is willing or not. She only firmly believes that it was Ming Leyao who said bad things about her, which made Fu Wencheng ignore her. Now she has lost her noble status. She is now full of hatred towards Ming Leyao.

It would have been fine if I hadn’t seen it before, but now that I’ve seen it, how could I let it go?
