Lan Yuchu showed no unusual reaction. After listening to Lin Qiyue's words, she continued to apply the ointment while blowing on it.

Indeed, feeling the cool breeze made the pain less.

After disinfecting, I put a cotton bandage on her and instructed her, "Leave it on for the morning, and remove it when you feel better in the afternoon, otherwise it might get infected. Don't let it get wet. If it hurts, just rest at home today. I have to go out with a friend this afternoon to take care of some things, and I'll be back later."

"Oh~"

Lin Qiyue's response made Lan Yuchu wonder if she was unhappy.

“I’ve put all the money in the cabinet; it’s all our savings. If you’re feeling bored, you can go out for a walk, buy some clothes, or go shopping,” Lan Yuchu couldn’t help but say again.

"You need to keep your money safe. I won't be responsible if it disappears." Lin Qiyue felt that he didn't need to trust her so much.

A woman who has never been married always spends as much as she has.

If she can't control herself and spends it all, then we're doomed.

"Besides, don't you need to spend money to appease your childhood sweetheart?" Lin Qiyue muttered under her breath.

Lan Yuchu had good hearing, so he heard it.

Feeling very uncomfortable, he earnestly explained to Lin Qiyue, "You are my wife, and I will let you manage all the money. My friends are all male. His name is Liu Yuanzhu, and he is also from our compound."

"I know, why are you being so fierce?" Lin Qiyue heard that his tone sounded impatient.

Lan Yuchu added, "I'm not afraid you'll misunderstand that I'm going on a date with a woman, so I'm reporting to you beforehand to avoid you getting upset here."

"I don't."

How could she possibly be sulking? She couldn't wait for him to go on a date!

But thinking about it, how could that be!

He's a soldier; he definitely wouldn't do something like that. That's their discipline.

Moreover, in the novel, the two never overstepped their bounds before they got married.

Lan Yu couldn't reason with him at first sight, so she turned to leave the room.

I remembered what their commander said: when your wife is angry, a kiss will make her happy.

He turned back, bent down, touched Lin Qiyue's head, and kissed her forehead.

Lin Qiyue stared wide-eyed in disbelief. This kid had actually kissed her.

The initial meeting with Lan Yu had a good effect; even her expression changed.

Then she happily said, "Time to wash up and have breakfast."

Click~

The moment the door closed, Lin Qiyue realized that this bastard had actually kissed her.

Touching the spot where he had kissed her, she smiled again and again.

"What's wrong? It's just a kiss!" She didn't seem to mind.

I came out after washing up.

Lan Yuchu served her a bowl of noodles, along with some pickled vegetables.

Lan Yusui had already started eating, but Shen Qingmiao was surprisingly quiet, glancing at her!

This woman is definitely plotting something wicked.

I got so much money from that man yesterday, I should treat him well today.

Lin Qiyue's eyes sparkled; if she kept an eye on her today, she was sure she could uncover some secrets.

After breakfast, Lan Yusui put on her beautiful dress, asked her mother for three yuan, and went out to play with her classmates.

Lan Yuchu said goodbye to Qian Xiuying and then left, telling her not to stay for lunch.

Lin Qiyue didn't go out; she just kept an eye on Shen Qingmiao.

Qian Xiuying took Yangyang out for a walk and bought some groceries.

Shen Qingmiao grabbed her bag, changed into a pretty dress, and went out.

At this time, she was already five months pregnant, but she still had to go out.

"Mom, please watch over Yangyang for me. I'm going out for a bit to check on my sister."

When Qian Xiuying returned from outside, Shen Qingmiao was about to go out, and she didn't say anything.

She still seemed concerned, saying, "Come back early, you're quite far along in your pregnancy, don't stay out too late."

Shen Qingmiao smiled and said, "Mom, I understand."

As soon as Shen Qingmiao went out, Lin Qiyue made up an excuse, "Mom, I'm going out for a while, I'll be back soon," and followed behind Shen Qingmiao.

At this distance, they probably wouldn't be able to perceive it.

Qian Xiuying watched as everyone left, leaving her alone at home with her child. It was a rare opportunity for her to relax and take care of her child at home.

Thinking that she wouldn't be coming home for lunch, it would be good for her, as she wouldn't have to cook for so many people.

Lin Qiyue followed behind Shen Qingmiao, not daring to get too close, and could only slowly follow behind her.

Shen Qingmiao didn't take the bus. Instead, she walked for more than twenty minutes to a supply and marketing cooperative in a relatively remote city center, where she bought some food.

She carried the food into the alley and came to an abandoned factory.

Lin Qiyue was still very scared when she saw the factory was so abandoned.

However, curiosity compelled her to follow behind step by step.

There's nobody around here, and very few people pass by.

After Shen Qingmiao entered the factory, Lin Qiyue saw through a crack that Shen Qingmiao was being intimate with a man.

Lin Qiyue also saw the man's face clearly; it was the old man, He Weiguo.

"What are you doing? I'm pregnant!" Shen Qingmiao was trying very hard to control the disgust on her face, not wanting He Weiguo to touch her.

He Weiguo was displeased and said directly, "I gave you a thousand yuan, which is almost a year's salary for me. What's wrong with touching it?"

Lin Qiyue saw it clearly; the man's appearance only disgusted her. Shen Qingmiao actually...

"I'm carrying your child, He Weiguo, be careful." Shen Qingmiao didn't want him to touch her and gently patted his hand.

Although He Weiguo was unwilling, there was nothing he could do, since she was pregnant.
