Chapter 15: Does your hand hurt?

Three days later, Huo Beichuan and Shen Jintao brought some gifts back with them, and Shen Jianmin and Xu Xuemei also prepared a table of delicious dishes at home.

"The wedding date of Chen Chunmiao and Lu Qingshan has been set."

Xu Xuemei suddenly said while eating.

"When?" Shen Jintao was a little surprised.

After all, Lu Qingshan proposed marriage before they got married, so it was quite surprising that the wedding date was set so quickly.

You have to know that except Chen Chunmiao, almost no one in the Shen family agreed with this marriage, or at least they were not very satisfied with it.

"It's the end of this month. I don't know what that damn girl Chen Chunmiao is thinking. She wants to be with that Lu Qingshan no matter what..."

Just when she said this, Xu Xuemei was suddenly stuck, thinking about how her daughter used to follow Lu Qingshan, she felt unconfident to say such things now.

"That's good. They are a good match." Chen Jintao said nonchalantly.

Huo Beichuan looked at his wife cautiously, and did not see any disappointment on her face. He breathed a sigh of relief. He was also afraid that everyone would say that his Jin Tao liked Lu Qingshan, and he was also afraid that his wife would be sad because of the matter between Shen Chunmiao and Lu Qingshan.

I am even more afraid that my wife has someone else in her heart.

Xu Xuemei also discovered that her daughter seemed to have no feelings for Lu Qingshan at all. "Speaking of which, that boy is really not good at all. That damn girl Chen Chunmiao regretted it after she married him."

Regarding the relationship between Chen Chunmiao and Lu Qingshan, Chen Jintao expressed her wish for them to be happily married forever.

After dinner, Xu Xuemei pulled Shen Jintao into the room, "Taozi, tell mom the truth, how are you getting along with Beichuan's parents?"

"Pretty good," Chen Jintao commented very objectively. For example, the deer that Huo Beichuan got, after Huo's father and mother dealt with it, they let them bring half of it back today.

"What about you... your sister-in-law?" Xu Xuemei knew that Huo Nanxi didn't like her daughter very much, and was afraid that her daughter would be embarrassed by her sister-in-law.

Thinking of that girl, Shen Jintao laughed for no reason. Ever since Huo Beichuan told her that he decided to leave the bicycle to them, the girl had become awkward, but she didn't give them a cold shoulder. She was an interesting girl with a good heart. "She's very cute. If someone outside talks about me, she will protect me."

Xu Xuemei nodded, feeling a little more relieved.

The next day after returning home, Huo Beichuan was recalled to the army.

"Wife, this is all my savings. I'm giving it to you. Don't treat yourself badly at home. Eat whatever you want and buy whatever you want. I will deal with the army affairs as soon as possible and then take you to join the army."

Before leaving, Huo Beichuan gave instructions reluctantly.

"Got it!" Chen Jintao was not polite at all and directly took the passbook and a handful of money handed to her by Huo Beichuan.

After counting, there were more than two hundred yuan in cash. Huo Beichuan even handed over the banknotes, and it was obvious that he did not keep any for himself.

Chen Jintao laughed, "You don't leave any for yourself, take this fifty."

"Thank you, my wife, for the pocket money!" Huo Beichuan showed his neat white teeth and looked silly.

"I'll prepare some food for you to eat on the way."

Shen Jintao didn't look at the amount on the passbook. Since Huo Beichuan could hand it over, she should give him some trust.

"Our mother should have made some preparations." Huo Beichuan held her hand, not letting her work hard. She could eat anything, but the important thing was to spend more time with his wife.

Shen Jintao couldn't do anything about him and could only accompany him.

Separation was inevitable. Even though both of them were reluctant, Huo Beichuan finally embarked on the journey back to the army.

He asked his family to send him to the brigade gate but they refused because he was afraid that he would not be able to leave.

Chen Jintao looked at the man's receding back, feeling extremely sad. They all said that being a military wife was difficult, but now that she had experienced it herself, she understood the helplessness of being a military wife.

Even though she was reluctant, she couldn't stop him, because he was going to protect everyone and she could only take care of her small family.

"Oh, so she's going to be a widow forever!" Shen Chunmiao heard from somewhere that Huo Beichuan had returned to the army, and she jumped out after the man left, with undisguised gloating in her tone.

"What did you say?" Shen Jintao looked at Shen Chunmiao. She could tolerate her unpleasant words, but she couldn't tolerate such words.

"I told you that you were going to be a widow, but I'm different. I'll marry Brother Qingshan, and we'll always be..."

“Bang!”

Before Shen Chunmiao could finish her words, Shen Jintao grabbed her hair and slapped her, "I advise you to speak a little more nicely, you are a widow, you will be a widow for the rest of your life!"

Chen Jintao quarreled like a primary school chicken, but she was very aggressive and showed no mercy when hitting people.

"You! You dare to hit me!" Chen Chunmiao covered his cheek in disbelief.

"I've wanted to beat you up for a long time, Chen Chunmiao. I've tolerated you for a long time. From today on, if I hear you say something like this again, I'll beat you up every time I see you!"

"Not convinced? If you don't agree, call your mother. I'm different. Not only do I have parents who love me, but I also have uncles and aunts who are full of fighting power. If you have the guts, just give it a try!"

Shen Jintao didn't feel embarrassed at all to use the banner of elders. If you don't use your uncle, you're a fool.

"You! You!" Shen Chunmiao pointed at Shen Jintao but couldn't say a word, "Shen Jintao, if you treat me like this, don't ask me for help in the future!"

As he said this, he covered his face and ran away crying.

Liu Guifen looked at Shen Jintao in surprise, "Taozi, does your hand hurt?"

"Puchi!" Chen Jintao thought her mother-in-law would say that she shouldn't hit people impulsively, but she never expected that this would be what she said.

Liu Guifen was serious, for she knew that her daughter-in-law had been a spoiled child since she was young. Her mother-in-law treated her daughter even more spoiled than her own Nancy. She felt pain just hearing about the slap just now.

"Show me your hands."

Chen Jintao reluctantly stretched out her hand to show her, and sure enough, her palm was red.

"Girl, just leave this kind of thing to your mother. Why do you have to do it yourself? Let's go back and make you some white wine."

Chen Jintao was annoyed by her mother-in-law's distressed tone, "Well... there's no need..."

It's too exaggerated!

But Liu Guifen dragged her home without saying anything, and Chen Jintao had no choice but to follow.

I thought this matter was over and done with, but in the end, neither Xie Lanzhi nor Wang Lanxiu, who had always liked Chen Chunmiao more, came. Instead, Lu Qingshan came.

Chen Jintao went to deliver mung bean soup to Liu Guifen and Huo Chenggong who were working in the afternoon, and was blocked by Lu Qingshan on the way back.

Shen Jintao quickly took several steps back, as if she had seen something dirty.

No matter how much she liked Lu Qingshan in the past, now that she was with Huo Beichuan, she had to keep her distance from Lu Qingshan, not to mention the warning from that dream.

Lu Qingshan noticed Shen Jintao's actions, and his face suddenly turned as dark as ink.

"Chen Jintao, what do you mean?"

"What's wrong with you?" Shen Jintao asked back.

"Chen Jintao, I know you still like me, so you targeted Chunmiao, but you really shouldn't hit people. I hope you can apologize to Chunmiao, otherwise, I will only hate you for the rest of my life."
