After being pushed into the water, rumors spread like wildfire. Her cousin, arguing and making a scene, refused to marry the husband from her past life, only because he saved Shen Jintao when she f...
Chapter 75: It’s a waste for you to ride a bike alone
After a commotion, Lu Qingshan was sent to the town hospital for emergency treatment. Because Shen Chunmiao had hit him very sharply, almost close to the solar plexus, it was still somewhat dangerous.
Fortunately, the final result was good. After the doctors and nurses performed first aid, they said that Lu Qingshan was no longer in danger of life, but he also needed to pay attention to his recovery and avoid inflammation. The doctor suggested that Lu Qingshan be hospitalized for observation for a period of time.
But where does Chen Chunmiao get so much money? She thought that Lu Qingshan was destined to become a wealthy man, so she felt that this minor injury would not be a big problem and insisted on taking him back.
Lu Qingshan rested at home for two days, but his wound became inflamed and he had a high fever. There was another round of chaos. After this incident, the relationship between the two almost reached freezing point.
All of this was mentioned in the letters that the Shen and Huo families sent to the troops. When Shen Jintao saw it, she just laughed it off, but when she read the letters from home, she couldn't help feeling a little sad.
Huo Beichuan knew his wife well. He knew she must be homesick the moment he saw her look. He couldn't help but feel a little sorry for his wife, so he hugged her in his arms and coaxed her softly, "When I have a vacation, we will go back to see our parents."
"Okay!" Chen Jintao also knew that her current identity was a military wife. From the moment she decided to become a military wife, she had already realized that she should put everyone first. Naturally, she would not be angry with Huo Beichuan. She just felt sad that she had not seen her family for a long time.
Time passed in the blink of an eye, and Chen Jintao returned to work at school. Because of her advertisement in the newspaper, she had a very good reputation in the school. Some people heard the news and insisted on putting their children into the class taught by Chen Jintao.
There were more and more children in the school, so the principal hired a few more teachers, all of whom were military wives and had at least graduated from junior high school.
As the weather is getting colder, the military wives actually don’t like going to the beach to pick up seafood anymore. The cold wind blowing on their faces feels like a knife scratching them.
The Chinese New Year is just a few days away, the schools are on holiday, and the military wives are starting to prepare to buy New Year’s goods.
That day, several military wives who were on good terms with Chen Jintao all came to Chen Jintao's house.
"Little Sister Shen, hurry up, you can go to the market today!"
Shen Jintao was a little confused, "Isn't there usually one?"
Because of the location, the control in this regard is not very strict here, and you can go to the market on weekdays and buy seafood caught by the villagers themselves.
"It's different. Today is different. Isn't the Chinese New Year coming soon? The control outside is more lax at this time of year. It can be said that there is no one in charge. It's very lively. There are also people selling snacks and everything. You should hurry up. If you are late, we may not be able to squeeze in."
Qian Mingfang hurried to explain.
After hearing this, how could Shen Jintao sit still?
"Wait for me, sisters-in-law. I'll go get a basket and get the money."
A group of military wives went out in a hurry. They were all officers' families, and basically every household had bought a bicycle. Of course, there were some frugal ones, but the quality of today's 28-inch bicycles can be said to be excellent. Those who didn't have a bicycle could just borrow the bikes of people they were on good terms with, and it didn't affect anything.
Not long after they rode out of the family compound, they saw several familiar figures.
When Liu Jinping saw the military wives, her face was obviously filled with joy and she waved at them frantically.
In fact, no one wants to care about Liu Jinping's personality. This woman is pitiful, but she may not appreciate it even if others speak up for her. Over time, no one wants to speak up for her anymore.
But since someone had greeted them, it would not be good to ignore them, so everyone stopped the car.
"Why did you bring the children out in such a cold day?"
Qian Mingfang was a little speechless when she saw the two children from Liu Jinping's family shivering from the cold.
"That's nothing. These two kids are grown up now and can help me carry things. Otherwise, it's inconvenient for me to go shopping alone."
Liu Jinping doesn't think there is anything wrong with her behavior.
Qian Mingfang didn't know what to say.
The ones brought out by Liu Jinping were the eldest brother Zhang Zhaodi and Zhang Laidi. Zhang Zhaodi was better off. When Zhang Laidi saw so many people, she immediately started looking around, and finally her eyes were fixed on Chen Jintao, or to be more precise, on the brand new bicycle under Chen Jintao.
"Mom, that auntie's bicycle is great. Let's ride that bicycle. It's still so far to the city. How long will it take us to get there if we just walk?"
People really do laugh when they are speechless, and Chen Jintao couldn't help laughing.
Liu Jinping thought that this was not a rejection, and was delighted. "Comrade Chen Jintao, you can see that it is inconvenient for me to take care of two children, and it is a waste for you to ride a bicycle by yourself. How about lending it to me?"
Chen Jintao: ...
Military wives:? ? ?
"I ride my own bike, so how can it be considered a waste?"
Shen Jintao expressed her incomprehension.
"No, I mean you can ride the same bike with Qian's wife. Isn't she riding without anyone else?"
"I don't like it!" Shen Jintao rolled her eyes.
It’s not that she has no sympathy, but she really doesn’t like others asking for things as a matter of course. They are not hers, so why should she indulge them?
Liu Jinping didn't expect that she would reject her, and she was a little angry. "How can you be so heartless? Don't you see how cold we three are? Everyone says you are selfless, but I think you are just selfish."
Chen Jintao laughed angrily, "I am just being selfish. Goodbye!"
Seeing her riding a bike in front, several military wives hurriedly pedaled their bikes to catch up with her, especially since there was no one on the back seat. They were afraid that if they walked a little slower, this strange mother and daughter would ask them to take them along, or give up their bikes.
If it was a good person, I would have lent it to him, but judging from his appearance, he is not a grateful person.
Liu Jinping was completely dumbfounded when she saw the backs of the military wives. She couldn't understand why they just left her and her daughter like that.
Zhang Lai Di spat on the ground. She was only an eight-year-old girl, but she acted so mean. "What a bunch of conscienceless people!"
Liu Jinping also agreed with her second daughter's words, especially towards Shen Jintao, whom she hated very much.
Chen Jintao was like she had eaten a fly, "Is there something wrong with this guy's brain?"
She complained to the military wife next to her while riding her bike.
"If she didn't have a problem with her brain, how could she have given birth to children one after another? Although it is said that having many children means more blessings, she also has to consider her own body. She is pregnant with one now. I don't know what she is thinking."
“That’s right…”
