Lin Wei and Zong Shao had an arranged marriage. Despite being married for four years and having two children, they had always lived separately, making their relationship no closer than that of ordi...
Because of the apology, the atmosphere in the Zhao family has been a bit bad these past two days.
Gao Xiu Lian didn't go on strike, but she was unhappy and couldn't help but give Zhao Feng a cold look.
Zhao Feng saw this and felt even more suffocated. He thought that I was working so hard alone outside for this family, and not only could you not help, but you also made things more troublesome for me!
So after dinner that day, he came out of the house, squatted on the stone at the gate of the yard, and smoked while looking at the dark sea.
Before he finished smoking a cigarette, he saw Zong Shao taking his two children out. When he asked him where they were going, he said he was taking the children for a walk. Zhao Feng couldn't help but look up at the sky.
It’s pitch dark here, why take a walk?
Just keep smoking.
As a result, before he finished smoking the second cigarette, he saw Zong Shao coming back with the child. This time, there was someone else with them. She was wearing a floral dress, and the hem of her dress fluttered in the sea breeze.
Zhao Feng couldn't even smoke the cigarette in his hand. He said, why did Zong Shao take the child over there? It turned out that he was looking for a wife.
Just as he was thinking about it, Zhao Feng heard Zong Shao ask, "Are you still smoking?"
Zhao Feng chuckled and said, "It's okay to smoke a couple of cigarettes. Why did you come over there?"
"Weiwei has something to ask someone, so I'll take the kids to pick her up," Zong Shao said.
Listen to this name, Weiwei, so corny!
Zhao Feng threw away the cigarette butt in his hand, stomped it out with his foot and said, "Lianlian called me just now, I'll go in first."
Because it is a single name, people who are close to Lin Wei either call her just the word "Wei" or call her Weiwei in a double sentence, so she doesn't think there is anything wrong with Zong Shao calling her that.
But Gao Xiu Lian is a double name, so when Lin Wei heard Zhao Feng calling her Lian Lian, she was shocked.
But then she changed her mind and realized that they were a couple, and even though it was a bit corny to call them that, it just showed that they had a good relationship, and she was just being surprised.
So, when Lin Wei returned home, she said, "I didn't expect that Deputy Head Zhao and Comrade Gao were so affectionate."
"...How did you know that?"
Lin Wei walked to the dining table, picked up the enamel cup and said, "Didn't you hear Deputy Head Zhao address Comrade Gao just now?"
Zong Shao said, "That's what I call you, too."
Lin Wei: "Ah... cough cough cough!"
…
After Zhao Feng, who had shown off his disdain for Zong Shao and his wife, returned to the house, he decided to have a good talk with Gao Xiu Lian. After all, they were husband and wife, and it was not right for them to be so cold to each other all the time.
But Gao Xiu Lian was now preoccupied with seeking justice at the Military Family Resettlement Office tomorrow. She was in no mood to pay attention to him and could only respond perfunctorily with "hmm" and "ah".
Zhao Feng was a rural soldier, and he was promoted to deputy regiment commander. Of course he was not stupid, so he could see that his wife was being perfunctory. He felt that there was no point in talking to her, so he turned over, pulled up the quilt and prepared to go to sleep.
But after sleeping for only a few minutes, he felt too hot and silently pulled the quilt off.
Because he was unhappy, Zhao Feng didn't sleep well that night, and when he woke up the next day, there were dark circles under his eyes.
Gao Xiulian looked similar, she was listless and fatigue was visible on her face. Zhao Feng's heart softened as he watched, and he called out to Xiu Lian and said, "We..."
"What?" Gao Xiulian looked up at him, frowning slightly, "Why don't you go out?"
The words of peace that Zhao Feng wanted to say were blocked, and he said with an embarrassed look: "I'll be leaving right away."
Gao Xiu Lian said "oh" indifferently and turned to call the children to wake up.
After Gao Xiulian sent the children out, she cleared the table, washed the dishes, and wiped everything in the kitchen. She went back to check the alarm clock. It was 7:56. She quickly took off her apron, packed up and prepared to go out.
Going out of the front yard and walking around to the narrow path between her own house and the Zong family, Gao Xiu Lian turned her head and saw Lin Wei and her two daughters sitting in the yard, eating breakfast around the dining table.
I don’t know what the two children said, but Lin Wei smiled with her eyes curved. The smile on her face didn’t fade until she looked up and saw her.
Stinky show-off!
Gao Xiulian turned her head away heavily and quickened her pace to move forward.
It took Lin Wei and her two children seven or eight minutes to reach the Military Family Resettlement Office along this road, but Gao Xiu Lian was holding her breath, so she walked faster than usual and arrived in four or five minutes.
After entering the main door of the Military Dependents Resettlement Office, Gao Xiulian turned right and went to the second office. She asked as soon as she entered, "What do you mean?"
The three people in the office turned their heads, and finally the middle-aged woman standing at the desk giving instructions spoke first: "What's going on? Are you here to make a scene at our Military Dependents Resettlement Office?"
Gao Xiulian came in furious, but when she saw who was talking, she became intimidated and lowered her head and said, "Director Luo, I didn't mean that."
"I didn't mean that. What do you mean?" Director Luo said impatiently. "I told you a long time ago that there are only so many jobs near the base. I can assign you first because Zhao Feng has been a soldier for many years. But you are so good that you despise this and look down on that. It's a pity that you are born into the working class and can't bear any hardship!"
Gao Xiulian was a little scared of Luo Shuzhi, but after hearing her scolding, she couldn't help herself: "Director Luo, you have to speak with conscience. What do you mean I dislike this job and look down on that job? I didn't go to the jobs you arranged because the time was not suitable! The chicken farm, I have to go to work before dawn every day, and the supply station is also busy in the morning, but I have three children at home. Lao Zhao is busy with the work of the regiment and can't be relied on. Making breakfast and sending the children to school all fall on me. If I go to work at the place you arranged, what about the children? What about housework?"
Gao Xiu Lian didn't go to work in these places, of course not just because the schedule didn't work out, the main reason was that these jobs were too bad and she looked down on them.
But she was not stupid. She knew that if she said she looked down on it, the people at the Military Family Resettlement Office would definitely criticize her, and they might even have to find someone to do ideological work on her. So she came out with a big banner.
Everyone in the Military Family Resettlement Office knew her true thoughts, but no one could expose Gao Xiulian because she did have three children in her family.
Even Luo Shuzhi had to suppress her impatience and said earnestly, "Comrade Gao, we all know how hard you've worked, but please also understand us. We can't arrange a job for you just by saying a few words. If there's no unit hiring, I can't come up with a job for you to do, right?"
Gao Xiulian said aggrievedly: "Director Luo, please stop fooling me. In the past year or so, you have arranged jobs for the wives of soldiers, such as Teacher Huang in the elementary school, Comrade Wang in the grain station, and Comrade Sun in the vegetable market..."
"Yes, we have arranged jobs for the comrades you mentioned, but you should know that most of them joined the army earlier than you, and registered to find jobs at our military dependents placement office earlier than you. Now is a new society, everyone is equal, I can't just let you join the queue alone, right? As for Teacher Huang, although she joined the army two months later than you, she has a higher degree, and the school was short of teachers at the time, so we treated her specially for special circumstances. But Teacher Huang's job arrangement is absolutely in line with the procedures, do you understand?"
"Yes, Teacher Huang is a special case. I can understand that other military wives came to join the army earlier than me, but what about Comrade Lin Wei? She just arrived on the island the day before yesterday and her household registration has not yet been completed. How did she get a job so quickly?"
Hearing that the other party had just arrived on the island, Luo Shuzhi turned around and asked the two people sitting there: "Lin Wei? Whose relative is this person?"
"Who else could it be? It's the wife of the deputy battalion commander of the regiment, Zong Shao! Director Luo, you don't know that this deputy battalion commander Zong treasures his wife very much. In order to bring her to accompany the army, he specially took half a month off!"
Gao Xiulian rushed to finish her words. When Luo Shuzhi didn't respond, Gao Xiulian deliberately raised her voice and said, "Lin Wei is so lucky. She went to the island the day before yesterday and only came to register her household registration yesterday. When she returned, she said she had a job and was going to work at the military hospital! Tsk tsk tsk tsk."
Hearing this, Luo Shuzhi finally frowned, pointed at the short-haired woman and said, "Come out with me for a moment."
