Wang Wen gritted her teeth, "What can I do? Even Commander Yan is bewitched by her!"

A dark glint flashed in Xiao Shu's eyes. "Sister Wen, you are so outstanding. You always follow the call of the motherland and have a high level of ideological awareness. How can Shen Shuyi compare to you?"

Wang Wen felt elated after being showered with praise by Xiao Shu, and her resentment grew even stronger.

Xiao Shu observed Wang Wen's expression and urged, "Shen Shuyi is so extravagant, eating meat at every meal, just because her family is wealthy. People with her background should be given more attention by the higher-ups."

"Let her receive a proper, down-to-earth education, instead of sending her to a research institute to harm people."

"Don't you think so, Sister Wen?"

Wang Wen pondered for a moment, "Hmm, I can't just stand by and watch her go to the research institute to become an enemy agent, causing our military region to suffer losses!"

"She needs to be taught a lesson, to behave properly, and not always act like a rich heiress."

She thought for a moment and lowered her eyes. "But... she's working at the research institute now, and her superiors must have investigated her identity and found no problems. If I make baseless accusations without evidence... that won't do."

Xiao Shu gritted her teeth. She originally wanted to report Shen Shuyi through Wang Wen, which would definitely get Shen Shuyi fired from the research institute, and then Yan Zheng would avoid suspicion and divorce her.

At that time, there will be no comparison between her marriage and Lee Dong-hae's.

The problem now is that they haven't found any fault with Shen Shuyi yet!

evidence...

Wang Wen and Xiao Shu were both unwilling to give up, and could only wait for another opportunity to report the matter.

...

On Shen Shuyi's side, Yan Zheng treated everyone to a meal to celebrate her starting work at the research institute.

Yan Zheng was cooking enthusiastically in the kitchen when several close neighbors came over. Besides Chen Lian and Lin Chan, there was also Yan Zheng's uncle's family and several subordinates.

Shen Shuyi was in the front hall serving tea and water, and bringing out fruits and snacks to greet the guests.

Chen Lian and Lin Chan took turns helping with the chores, washing vegetables, boiling water, and cooking rice.

Shen Shuyi chuckled, "Oh dear, I can't accept this. You're our guests."

“Hey, what’s the big deal? We’re all neighbors, and even from the same regiment. It’s not an exaggeration to say we’re family,” Chen Lian and Lin Chan said in unison.

Shen Shuyi went to Yan Zheng's side and tugged at his sleeve, "The dishes are almost ready. Go out and chat with your uncle and the others. I'll stay here with Sister Lian and the others."

"Brother Zheng, bend down a bit, I'll take off your apron for you." She even learned to make this apron herself using a sewing machine; it's a light gray color and very dirt-resistant.

Seeing that the dishes were almost cooked, Yan Zheng bent down and asked Shen Shuyi to take off her apron.

"Okay, be careful not to burn your hands."

Before leaving the kitchen, he exchanged a few more polite words with Chen Lian and the others.

As Shen Shuyi looked at the bitter melon, soybean, and pork bone soup, Chen Lian came over and winked at her, "Shuyi, Commander Yan is so considerate to you."

“Exactly, their eyes practically glued to you,” Lin Chan chimed in.

Shen Shuyi smiled shyly, "Please stop teasing me."

"By the way, Sister Chan, how have you been feeling lately?" She had already given Lin Chan acupuncture several times.

Lin Chan's heart pounded, and she whispered, "I haven't had my period this month, but it's never been regular for me."

Shen Shuyi washed and dried her hands. "Come here, let me take your pulse."

Chen Lian also hopes that there will be more children in the family compound, making it more lively. She also hopes that Lin Chan's wish will come true.

Lin Chan was even more nervous, her voice trembling slightly, "Shuyi, how are you?"

"Congratulations, Sister Chan! You're pregnant, but it's still early in the pregnancy. Go to the health center for a check-up in about two weeks."

"Really?!" Lin Chan was so excited that tears welled up in her eyes. She held Shen Shuyi's hand tightly. "Shuyi, I don't know how to thank you."

She wouldn't accept the consultation fee, so I secretly gave it to her under some vegetables. But a few days later, she brought me some candy and cookies, and I didn't touch the consultation fee.

Shen Shuyi smiled and said, "Don't be so polite. Didn't you get the medicine yourselves? I'm just getting acupuncture, it doesn't cost me anything."

Lin Chan was moved, and Chen Lian also sighed, thankful that they hadn't looked at Comrade Shen with prejudice back then, otherwise they wouldn't be where they are today.

"Alright, let's take the food out."

"I'll do it, I'll do it." Lin Chan insisted on doing the work, so Chen Lian pulled Shen Shuyi aside and let her rest.

"Shuyi, your hands are meant for research, let us do these chores."

Shen Shuyi chuckled and followed behind them with her bowl and chopsticks.

Those present couldn't help but be amazed when they saw Shen Shuyi come out and her face.

No wonder their Commander Yan was in such a hurry to apply for a marriage certificate. If it were them, they might have blocked the office and refused to leave until it was approved!

Several people were meeting Shen Shuyi for the first time. Yan Zheng pulled Shen Shuyi's hand and sat her down next to him, introducing her to everyone.

"This is my wife, my beloved, Comrade Shen Shuyi."

Shen Shuyi greeted everyone and then invited them to start eating.

There were several hearty dishes on the table, including a large plate of boiled shrimp made by Shen Shuyi, as well as bitter melon, soybeans, and pork ribs stewed by her. She also added a little spiritual spring water to the soup, which is good for strengthening the body.

The other dishes were prepared by Yan Zheng: poached chicken, stir-fried clams with scallions, braised pork belly, braised duck with ginger and scallions, braised fish chunks, and some cold dishes.

The eldest uncle and aunt were filled with joy to see Shen Shuyi and Yan Zheng living a good life together.

After the event, Lin Chan wanted to stay and help clean up, but Shen Shuyi quickly said, "You're pregnant now, you should go home and rest early."

Lin Chan and his wife were extremely grateful. Yan Zheng patted Company Commander Ai Hua on the shoulder and said, "Go back and take good care of your wife."
