Xia Keqing transmigrated into a novel specifically, into a 1980s-era story as the dramatic, troublemaking side character.
In the original plot, the male lead paid for her to attend university...
Chapter 151: Accept All
Shen Jichuan raised the corners of his lips, with a gentle smile in his eyes that he himself didn't even notice.
He did practice calligraphy intentionally.
He never cared about these things before.
He is not going to take the imperial examination, so it doesn't matter whether he studies or not.
As long as you can read, it's fine as long as you're not blind.
It was just that the old leader who had done him a favor told him that people still need to read books, as reading can help them understand things. So he read patiently. But deep down, he prefers machines and battlefields.
As a result, his family arranged a marriage for him with a girl who had worked hard to get into college.
At that time, the old leader asked him what he thought, and asked him with a smile if he was worried that he would have no common topics with girls in the future.
He actually forgot what he said at that time.
Because at that time, it didn't matter to him who he married or who he lived with.
He just reached a certain age, and his parents took the initiative to arrange a marriage for him. Thinking of his parents' kindness in raising him, he agreed.
But since he went to the provincial capital on a whim and kept in touch with her after returning, he began to change.
The books that used to be like reading an incomprehensible book can now occasionally be found to be somewhat interesting.
And then there was that brat Shen Xufeng, who actually dared to say that his handwriting was ugly in front of her?
Perhaps his little wife didn't even realize that when his nephew said this, he was actually looking at her.
An extremely strange emotion arose in his heart at that time.
Does she also think his handwriting is ugly?
He was a little worried that she would also think his handwriting was ugly.
Although he now holds a position in the army and earns a good salary with good benefits, he does only have a junior high school education.
None of this can be compared to the fact that she graduated from university with a bachelor's degree.
He even wondered if she would look down on him because of his low education level.
However, he did not see any expression of disgust on her face at that time, but he began to mind it in his heart.
Although I am not as knowledgeable as my nephew, I started to take time every day to read books and practice calligraphy after returning to the army.
Although the letters his wife received each time were only a few thin sheets of paper, she didn't know that he had copied them several times.
It will only be sent out after ensuring that every word is correct and without any mistakes.
Sure enough, this time she praised him in her reply.
She said that handwriting reflects the character of the person, and praising his beautiful handwriting means that he is a good person, right?
She is such a considerate person. Because they are his family, she takes such good care of his elder brother and sister-in-law. Not only did he help his eldest sister-in-law settle down, he also took the initiative to give money to his eldest brother to open a noodle shop.
Shen Jichuan has been away from home since he was a child, which means that the country paid for the Shen family to raise this child.
There is definitely nothing wrong with his three views, but in his mind, national sentiment is definitely more important.
In contrast, the small family has to be sacrificed for the sake of everyone.
But if there is someone who takes care of your family and your journey in every way because of you, would you be touched?
Comrade Old Shen was deeply moved.
Without hesitation, he handed over all his savings over the years and his monthly salary subsidies, and also said that he would keep a little of his monthly salary for his wife.
When a man is willing to give his financial income to a woman, it means he values her.
Shen Jichuan didn't think so much, he just felt that she had put so much thought into it and must have spent a lot of money.
After all, my elder brother and his wife are both so old and living in the provincial capital. What can they do without spending money?
No problem!
Xia Keqing accepted all the remittance from her husband.
If a legitimate couple voluntarily hands over their finances, only a fool would refuse.
Any hesitation would be disrespectful to these deposits.
However, Xia Keqing was still surprised by the amount of money the old man had saved over the years.
The system is still good, stable and secure, you don’t have to worry about your life once you enter it. No wonder so many people are eager to get ashore!
Otherwise, after she graduates and joins the army, she can just let Shen Jichuan arrange a suitable job for her?
She doesn't have much ambition anyway.
But this thought only flashed through my mind.
She was a college student of this generation, and was guaranteed a job after graduation, but it was unclear where exactly she would be assigned.
In a society where human relationships are important, you still have to rely on connections.
Shen Jichuan is her connection, her backstage.
Just thinking about it makes me feel refreshed.
So when Brother Shen found her and asked her to help mediate and get Sister-in-law Shen to quit her job and open a shop with him, Xia Keqing did not just turn away.
It was really because Shen Jichuan gave too much.
As a result, she saw Brother Shen's somewhat similar face, although compared with Shen Jichuan, Brother Shen was indeed a bit cowardly.
But Xia Keqing still asked him in a good mood, "Brother, this is a family affair between you and your sister-in-law. It would be bad if I interfere, right?"
Brother Shen's face turned red instantly.
He began to stutter when speaking.
“I, I…”
"I called her, but she ignored me..."
Xia Keqing was not interested in what was going on between Brother Shen and his wife.
But she was also a little curious. Why, even though the funds were in place and the noodle shop was about to open, Mrs. Shen could be so cruel as to ignore Brother Shen.
Do you really not want to open your own shop and be your own boss?
In fact, Xia Keqing felt that this might not be the case, and there might be other reasons.
Xia Keqing could only say: "Brother, let's go sit over there and talk slowly."
Shen Dachuan felt even more embarrassed.
Because it was already dinner time, Xia Keqing had no classes today. As for Mrs. Shen, perhaps just to avoid Brother Shen, she volunteered to find a new store.
Originally, Xia Keqing had not put opening a new store on the agenda so quickly.
But didn’t “Blood Bag Old Shen” come to the door on his own initiative?
So she sent Mrs. Shen to investigate.
She assigned several tasks to Mrs. Shen, the first of which was to look at the location, size, and rent of the store.
You can also ask the landlord if he plans to sell the property and the selling price, and you can make a simple report.
Mrs. Shen patted her chest and vowed that she would be able to complete the task.
So Mrs. Shen has been very busy these days, going out early and coming back late every day.
Brother Shen really couldn't find a chance to talk to his wife.
Every time I waited for my wife to come home for dinner, she ate very quickly. After finishing her meal, she wiped her bowl, washed up and went to bed.
Even if I wanted to get intimate, I was rejected.
Said he was too tired.
Brother Shen is an honest man and would never do something like forcing his wife.
When he wanted to say something else, he heard his wife's even breathing again.
The next morning, he woke up and saw that it was less than seven o'clock, and there was no one around him...
Brother Shen really had no choice.
The location of his noodle shop has been determined.
Not far from Keqing Women's Clothing Store, there is a three-way intersection, which is not very large, only a dozen square meters. But there is a large flow of people and there is a school nearby, so as long as the business is open, there will be no worries about business.
It's just a matter of how much you earn.
But suddenly, without helpers, Brother Shen, who had to rely on himself for everything, lost his way.
What did he have to do?
Clean up the store first? He made a sign for himself to let people know that his shop sells noodles, and then bought some noodle-making utensils...
That was all he could think of.
Thinking of doing the same thing, I feel it is a bit difficult.
He was even afraid that he couldn't run a store by himself.
Brother Shen’s current state is very much like a baby who has just been weaned, an old baby in his thirties, confused and helpless...
