Song Yan never thought she would experience a day of transmigrating into a book. Well, if she transmigrated, she transmigrated! The 1970s weren't that scary.
However, she didn't expec...
Song Yan handed the letter to Di Minxia, "Put it in the mailbox!"
Without thinking much, Di Minxia strode to the mailbox, threw the mailbox in with a "whoosh," and turned back to Song Yan's side.
Song Yan stood still, waiting for the two people to slowly walk up to them.
"Hello, sister-in-law!" Shen Suqin said.
Song Yan: "I don't know you!"
After hearing this, Shen Suqin turned to look at her grandfather.
Grandpa Shen: "Some things are there whether you acknowledge them or not. You know in your heart that Suqin is your cousin."
It seems they intend to continue this conversation. Since Song Yan shows no sign of leaving, let's hear what he has to say.
Di Minxia quickly put down the stool she was holding and helped Song Yan sit down.
This stool was the large kind, shorter than a regular stool but taller than a small stool. When Song Yan sat on it, he was considerably shorter than Old Master Shen, who was standing and talking.
Song Yan sat low, yet she didn't lose her imposing presence; her face was serious.
This reminded Old Master Shen of the scene when he stood in front of Old Master Zeng and gave his reply.
Song Yan remained silent and listened as Old Master Shen continued.
“Look how heavy you are, and you’re not far from giving birth. Someone has to take care of you! Your mother-in-law is getting old, and it would be too tiring for her to take care of you. Suqin is free at home, so let her take care of you!” said Grandpa Shen.
Song Yan wanted to ask, "Do you think I'm stupid? If I keep this person by my side, won't you know everything I do? Who knows, she might just run off with my child one day!"
When Shen Suqin noticed Song Yan looking at her, she immediately straightened up and put on what she thought was her most beautiful smile. However, the unusual excitement in her eyes betrayed that she had an ulterior motive.
Yesterday, Shen Suqin saw Shen Ruomei and several girls shopping at the supply and marketing cooperative.
When Shen Ruomei saw fruit candies and dried fruit, she bought them without hesitation. She also wanted to buy shoes.
Those who were with Shen Ruomei all came from military families. Their families were always making invoices.
A young woman said that with the Chinese New Year approaching, her family's travel vouchers were being prioritized for her brother, and she knew she wouldn't be able to buy leather shoes.
Another girl said that her brother was getting married, and the family not only didn't have enough coupons, they had to borrow them! They even borrowed from Ruomei's father. If Ruomei's father lent all his coupons to her family, how did she still have industrial coupons?
Shen Ruomei smiled broadly at the time. "My sister-in-law gave it to me!"
When Song Yan gave Shen Ruomei money, there were quite a few tickets mixed in with it.
Another person said, "Your dad really spoils you. But now that you have an older brother, will he treat you the same way financially?"
Shen Ruomei: "The money I spent was given to me by my sister-in-law!"
Shen Ruomei bought a pair of black leather shoes without hesitation.
A pair of leather shoes costs 20 yuan!
Shen Suqin has never bought a pair of leather shoes.
In Shen Suqin's mind, Shen Ruomei was born to Shen Changchuan's concubine. Shouldn't Shen Ruomei want to spend all the money herself? And shouldn't her brother and sister-in-law want to kick Shen Ruomei out?
She kept thinking about it when she got back.
She suddenly realized that there couldn't possibly be any genuine affection between them. She and her cousin, on the other hand, didn't have any major rift; if they got along well, they might even be closer than her two mothers.
Why don't I try to get along better with my cousin and his wife?
If they get along well, what will be the point of Shen Ruomei? The money and tickets will all be theirs anyway.
Yesterday, the man surnamed Su came to see Grandpa again. Grandpa thought he had managed to keep it a secret from everyone!
She came along today when she saw her grandfather was about to go out.
I was chatting with my grandfather, and he said that the reason they didn't get along with my cousin was because they didn't communicate enough. He added, "If she went to take care of my sister-in-law every day, helping her with her postpartum period and looking after the baby!"
She refused to believe it; could he really be heartless?
Shen Suqin said that once she gets along well with her brother and sister-in-law, she will definitely persuade her sister-in-law to be closer to her family.
Grandpa Shen hadn't thought of that at all. When she heard that Suqin's words made sense, she brought Suqin along.
When Grandpa Shen first came to the school, Song Yan didn't intend to do anything to him.
The second time he went, he didn't see her or his mother-in-law, and Song Yan still didn't want to argue with him.
This was the third time. Song Yan suddenly realized that the old man might have placed Shen Suqin by her side for the sake of the child.
Every mother's child is her Achilles' heel. What kind of world is this? How dare he lay a hand on my child?
Song Yan turned his gaze to Shen Suqin again, neither saying yes nor no.
Shen Suqin thought Song Yan had tacitly agreed, so she ran to Song Yan's side.
Old Master Shen continued, "I'm old and don't have many days left to live. I just want to see the Shen family line continue before I close my eyes."
"Now that your child has been born, the Shen family will have an heir."
"Did you wait for me here on purpose? I rarely come out. What if I didn't come out?" Song Yan asked.
“I can’t get into your house. I thought I’d wait here every day, and eventually I’d run into you!” said Grandpa Shen.
“Waiting here every day is no better than going directly to the school and finding Wei Aiguo, isn’t that easier?” Song Yan asked.
Why didn't Grandpa Shen want to go look for him? But Su Zhaohai said that Wei Aiguo already knew he had seen him. Furthermore, because he had given Grandpa Shen Wei's address, Wei Aiguo was now taking his anger out on his family.
He deliberately provoked his wife with words, causing her to go berserk. Now it's very difficult for him to stay in the army.
Grandpa Shen hadn't expected that Su Zhaohai had such a strong influence in the military, that even he could be driven to the brink of extinction by his grandson. He subconsciously felt that Wei Aiguo was difficult to persuade.
