Ning Jing curiously took it and examined it closely. She saw that it was a grain purchase certificate, different from the one at home, with a brown leather cover.

It shows the number of tickets that can be purchased each month, as well as the quantity of each type of ticket.

It's obvious that this book has many more varieties than the one at home.

"You still get cotton coupons every month?"

Ning Jing noticed this at first glance and asked in surprise.

During this period, besides wanting to pickle vegetables, what she wanted most was cotton.

However, there was no way to get this stuff, and she had originally planned to keep her child indoors all winter.

Now that we have cotton coupons, how can we not be happy?

Fu Hongxing nodded and said, "I've already arranged with them to give me this month's cotton coupons first, and then I'll return them to them every month thereafter."

I also hauled a thousand catties of coal from the mine first. When I have free time, I'll dig up mud and make coal briquettes. That way, we won't have to worry about wasting firewood in the winter.

Ning Jing looked up at Fu Hongxing after hearing his words.

Unexpectedly, he saw through all my worries and even took care of them.

"Didn't we say we were going to catch chicks with Sister Guihua tomorrow? Go to sleep early."

Fu Hongxing pretended not to notice the way Ning Jing was looking at him and said to her.

Hearing Fu Hongxing say that, Ning Jing felt she could no longer stay in the outer room. She stood up, blew out the kerosene lamp on the table, and then went inside.

Fu Hongxing did not lie down immediately. He sat on the kang and raised his head when Ning Jing blew out the kerosene lamp.

What Chen Daohe said to him made him extremely angry, and he felt even more indignant on behalf of Ning Jing.

Others don't understand her at all, yet they point fingers and gossip about her.

If it weren't for General Chen's sake, Chen Daohe would have punched him in the face the moment he said those words.

Thinking of Chen Daohe's words, which implied that Ning Jing was an irresponsible woman, Fu Hongxing's anger burned even more fiercely in his heart.

However, he couldn't help but wonder if Ning Jing liked men like Chen Daohe, the kind of pretty boy.

Fu Hongxing thought of monkeys again after thinking of Chen Daohe, and then silently complained in his heart that Ning Jing had no taste in men at all, and that he should never let her choose her own men in the future.

He let out a long breath, leaned back, closed his eyes, and stopped thinking nonsense.

As dawn broke, Ning Jing and Fu Hongxing woke up at the same time.

Ning Jing instructed Xiu Hua to take good care of her younger siblings, then took a basket and went next door to find Sister-in-law Gui Hua, with Fu Hongxing accompanying her.

"Hey, Hongxing, are you going with Ningjing too?"

Wang Guihua clipped the stray hairs behind her ears with a hairpin, dusted herself off, and walked out of the yard. She was surprised to see Fu Hongxing standing next to Ning Jing.

"Sister-in-law, I'm going to work at the coal mine. I can give you a ride."

After saying that, he looked up at the sky.

Although it was indeed daylight, people were still not visible from a distance.

Having a man with me makes me feel more at ease.

Upon hearing this, Wang Guihua glanced at Ning Jing standing next to Fu Hongxing. One was tall and robust, while the other was charming and lovely. No wonder she couldn't rest easy!

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but smile and nodded knowingly.

When it was time to part ways, Wang Guihua looked back and saw Fu Hongxing still standing there watching them. She immediately nudged Ning Jing with her elbow.

"Look at your Red Star, he's still standing there, reluctant to leave!"
