Shen Qiaoyue remembered that the woman next door was named Xiang Shulan, and her husband was a deputy regimental commander named Zhang Dali.

Xiang Shulan is gentle in nature, but a very kind person.

But in her past life, Lin Yaya often encouraged Shen Qiaoyue to borrow things from Shulan's family and then never return them.

The borrowed honey, brown sugar, meat coupons, and grain coupons were all used by Lin Yaya to subsidize Yang Qingshan, who was going to the countryside, to do favors.

Thinking about this makes me want to vomit.

Finally, Xiang Shulan was hospitalized due to malnutrition, and she dared not say that she had lent the things to Shen Qiaoyue.

Lin Yaya said that Xiang Shulan was weak-willed and wouldn't dare to do anything after a few harsh words.

Under Lin Yaya's instigation, Shen Qiaoyue often bullied others.

This caused Xiang Shulan to miscarry all the children she was pregnant with, but she didn't dare tell her husband, fearing that if he offended Lu Chen and Shen Qiaoyue, his career would be ruined.

It was only after Zhang Dali pressed her for details that Xiang Shulan finally told him what had happened. In the end, Lu Chen returned the money. Because of this incident, Yang Qingshan reported him, and Lu Chen was sent to a farm and labeled a radical.

"What's wrong? Don't you like honey water?" Lu Chen remembered that Shen Qiaoyue liked to drink coffee.

But at this time of year, let alone coffee, those kinds of things are rarely available on the market.

Nobody dared to buy it.

"No, this honey is so precious, I wanted to thank Sister Shulan properly." Honey is very expensive; sometimes you can't buy it even if you have money.

The famine is over, but we are still backward and lack supplies.

"Drink up. If you really want to thank her, we'll go to town later and buy some good food to bring back to thank Sister Shulan." Lu Chen was a bit lacking in social skills; he had just given her money and a meat coupon.

“Yes, I’ll listen to Brother Shen,” Shen Qiaoyue nodded.

Lu Chen actually cooked rice into porridge and even made steamed buns with white bread.

Shen Qiaoyue felt a pang of heartache.

There was a little bit of leftover white rice from the wedding banquet we had the day before yesterday.

He actually used it to make porridge; he really doesn't know anything about thrift and managing a household.

However, Shen Qiaoyue still ate with great relish.

The buns are filled with meat.

After finishing her meal, Shen Qiaoyue put on her coat and hat, preparing to go out.

The army's logistics department needed to go into the city to make purchases, and they were going into the city along with the military vehicles. Because it was snowing and bicycles were difficult to ride, they had to go into the city with the military vehicles.

Throughout the journey, Lu Chen took meticulous care of him.

Once in the city, Lu Chen arranged to meet the driver at the drop-off point at a certain time.

"Can you walk?" Lu Chen didn't actually want Shen Qiaoyue to come, but she insisted on coming along.

Shen Qiaoyue nodded, her face flushed, and said, "You should help me up. I can walk slowly."

“We can actually wait until you’re better, and come back next weekend. It’s the same.” Lu Chen didn’t understand why Shen Qiaoyue was in such a hurry to come out.

Shen Qiaoyue said, "I want to see what it looks like outside."

She hadn't seen the outside world for many years, and after being reborn, she wanted to experience it properly.

It was exactly the same scene I had seen before.

"We'll have plenty of time to look around later. Let's buy our things and head back early." Lu Chen looked at Shen Qiaoyue, who seemed uncomfortable as she walked, and was very worried.

Shen Qiaoyue was very excited to see what was happening outside and to breathe in the fresh air.

"Okay, I want to buy candy for Brother Shen, lots and lots of candy." Shen Qiaoyue always remembered this.

Lu Chen's lips curled up, but he tried hard to suppress it.

After she died, her soul floated beside Lu Chen. He said that when he tasted candy for the first time in his life, he realized that candy was sweet.

In the past, both older brothers said that sugar was bitter, and neither they nor their younger sister could eat it.

Later, after joining the army and receiving a salary, he used it to buy half a pound of candy, and the first piece of candy he tasted was milk candy.

And she was able to get her younger sister to eat milk candy as she wished.

Lu Chen and Lu He are many years apart in age. He has been working so hard all these years in order to change the fate of his younger sister being sold by her family.

When he was a child, he saw his two aunts being sold by their families. He made up his mind that he would not let his younger sister be sold to someone else as a wife like his aunts.

There are shopping malls in the city, and this large shopping mall has three floors; the first floor sells fresh produce.

The second floor sells furniture and stationery, and the third floor sells clothes.

Moreover, each elevator is guarded.

This is the center of Fucheng, and many things are imported from the port city.

Shen Qiaoyue saw the pom-pom and the scarves. The scarves cost ten yuan each, but the pom-pom only cost two yuan.

I wanted to knit a scarf for Lu Chen, so I bought five pom-poms, thinking I'd knit scarves for the whole family of three.

"Lu Chen, my sister is coming to stay, so we need to buy shoes, clothes, pajamas, stationery, and notebooks." Shen Qiaoyue said as she had Lu Chen buy everything.

Then I went to the first floor and bought a pound of candy, half a pound of brown sugar, and half a pound of pastries.

After buying a lot of things and waiting for a while at the designated place, Xiao Li, the logistics officer, said, "Regimental Commander Lu, your wife has finished shopping."

"Okay, I've bought them. Here, Xiao Li, have some candy." Shen Qiaoyue took out a few candies from the bag and handed them to Xiao Li.

He didn't stand on ceremony, smiling as he took it, saying, "Thank you, sister-in-law."

After getting on the bus, I arrived home.

Shen Qiaoyue sat on the sofa, she was exhausted.

It's really cold outside.

"Qiaoyue, you stay home and wait for me. I went to the city today and didn't buy any groceries. I'll go to the canteen to get you some food. I'll be back soon." Lu Chen took the lunchbox and was about to leave.

Shen Qiaoyue nodded and looked at Lu Chen, saying, "Okay, I'll wait for you to come back."

Watching Lu Chen leave, Shen Qiaoyue quickly put all the delicious food into the cabinet and locked it up.
