Chapter 6: Don’t look for someone who has remarried

After Chen Tang finished the infusion, he went back to his room and fell asleep, and didn't wake up until the next afternoon.

Looking at the clothes hanging on the railing at the head of the bed, Chen Tang couldn't help but sigh. It seemed that he couldn't go back.

When you walk out of the room, the first thing you see is a red portrait of the Chairman. Below it is a wooden table with a teapot and enamel cups on it. In the middle is a large rectangular mahogany table.

My aunt lives in a bungalow with four rooms in total, with the main room and kitchen in the middle.

The original body would only come here to stay for a day during holidays.

Seeing that she woke up, Zhou Ling went forward and touched her forehead, and was relieved to see that she had no fever.

There was ready-made hot water on the stove, but my aunt was not used to the big bathhouse, so she built a small bathing cubicle at home with red bricks. It was not only convenient for taking a bath, but also for washing clothes.

After she finished taking a shower and washed and hung her clothes to dry, Zhou Ling gave her a meat bun that had been kept warm for a long time to fill her stomach.

Chen Tang sat quietly at the door with her hair loose, her beautiful face making the courtyard full of brilliance.

Perhaps because the meat buns smelled too good, her little cousin who was playing in the mud in the yard would walk past her on her short legs from time to time. Every time she passed by, she would swallow her saliva and secretly turn up her nose.

This three-year-old baby is quite funny.

"Hongmei, come here."

The little fellow immediately dropped the broken bowl in his hand, ran over, raised his head and rolled his throat, trying hard to move his eyes away from the bun in her hand.

"What do you want me to do?"

Chen Tang took some of the meat filling out of the bun and handed it to her mouth.

The little guy's mouth was watering, and he didn't forget Zhou Ling's instructions in the morning: "I don't want to eat it. Mom said that this bun is for my sister. I've already eaten mine."

Shen Tang was slightly surprised that this kid had quite a lot of self-control.

"Sister Chen Tang, are you well again?"

Aunt Zhang passed by outside with a basket of vegetables, and Chen Tang politely called her "Auntie".

Aunt Zhang saw the little girl drooling and walked in with a smile: "Hongmei, where is your mother?"

"In the house." The little guy said in a baby voice.

Aunt Zhang rolled her eyes and lowered her voice, "Sister, let me introduce you to another guy. I see that you like children so much. It just so happens that the other person has four children at home. He is only ten years older than you. He looks about the same as Captain Han, but he is a little shorter than Captain Han. But he is definitely more discerning than Captain Han."

Chen Tang frowned as she listened. She didn't want to be a stepmother. It would be exhausting to take care of the laundry and cooking for so many children.

Look at her aunt, she took one day off and was busy from morning to night without a moment's rest.

But after all, it was the original body who said that she wanted to find a second marriage, so Chen Tang did not lose his temper and refused in a nice tone.

"I don't like children now. I'm only eighteen. I'd better find a first-time marriage candidate. I'm sorry to trouble you."

Aunt Zhang didn't know Chen Tang's family background, but when she heard that Zhou Ling was the daughter of an old landlord and her family members were criticized and treated like rats, she guessed that Chen Tang must have come to Zhou Ling to escape being sent down to the countryside, and she immediately felt uncomfortable.

The person she introduced was at least an officer. If it weren't for Chen Tang's beauty, she wouldn't dare to introduce a family of status to him.

"I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you don't have a good reputation right now. It's good enough that you can find a man who treats you well. Women, don't be so picky. The more you pick, the harder it is to get married."

Before Chen Tang could say anything, he suddenly saw someone walking outside.

The man was holding a piece of meat in his hand, his brows and eyes were deep and full of indifference.

"Aunt Zhang, if you like second marriages, why don't you let your daughter marry him someday? Comrade Shen has Aunt Zhou and Political Commissar Fang to worry about him."

Aunt Zhang felt guilty: "It's Captain He, why are you here at Director Zhou's house again? But you are a man, so you naturally don't understand women's affairs. Sister Chen Tang likes men who are remarried and have children. Am I not taking her feelings into consideration?"

Chen Tang was furious at what she said, but this was the sin committed by her original body, and no matter how she explained, people just wouldn't believe her!

He Xu glanced at her. The little girl was so angry that her hair was about to explode, but she was too stupid to say a word in response.

Tsk, idiot.

"Aunt Zhang is really helpful, but I remember that you make a few bucks every time you make a successful introduction. Does this count as profiteering?"

Aunt Zhang's eyes were erratic, and she said nervously, "Captain He, please don't slander me. What I am doing is not speculation. I am just a little enthusiastic. If you don't want to introduce me, then don't introduce me. It's getting late, and I still have land to plow. I won't talk to you anymore."

After saying this, he disappeared in an instant as if someone was chasing him.

Shen Tang couldn't help but grin.

He Xu glanced over, and the smile on the little girl's face instantly disappeared in fear.

"Coward."

Thinking of the beautiful dream last night, He Xu's expression changed slightly.

It's really weird that he actually fell in love with such a stupid, cowardly and weak girl!

Chen Tang's ears twitched, and when he heard his cold words, he gnashed his little fangs in dissatisfaction.

Her red lips pursed, and her voice became almost inaudible: "You are the coward."

Coincidentally, Aunt Zhou Ling came out of the kitchen and happened to see the resentment on Chen Tang's face.

She laughed and scolded her: "Are you still not convinced? A good girl has to find a second marriage with children. If your sisters knew, they would break your legs."

Chen Tang hurriedly assured: "I know I was wrong, aunt. I was young and ignorant before. Now I think it through. I have just started working and I am still young. It won't be too late to find a partner in two years."

Zhou Ling was satisfied: "It's OK as long as you know what's going on."

When she turned around and saw the meat in He Xu's hand, she couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth.

"You kid, you always bring meat every time you come, and our family doesn't lack it. You should save some money to marry a wife, and take care of your family when you go on a mission. How can you work so hard all the time?"

He Xu was very respectful to Zhou Ling. Even when she was nagging him in words, he would just nod gently in agreement.

Zhou Ling took the meat back to the kitchen.

Chen Tang suddenly remembered something and followed him in.

The main reason was that He Xu was sitting outside, and she always felt a little embarrassed.

Of course, she was definitely not afraid of his sharp eyes.

"Aunt, do you think it's okay for me to take a leave and go back to the capital next month?"

Zhou Ling was cleaning the stove and turned to look at her: "What are you going back to the capital for? It will take at least a week to go back and forth. You just joined the art troupe, it's not easy to ask for leave at this time."

"On the thirteenth of next month, my grandfather will be celebrating his seventieth birthday."

I was born into a military family. My grandfather was the deputy commander, my father was the commander of a division in the Capital Military Region, my mother was the attending physician in the orthopedics department of a large hospital in the capital, my eldest brother entered the research institute at a young age, and his sister-in-law was also a military doctor. My second and third brothers also made great achievements in their respective fields.

As the only daughter in the family, Shen Tang was naturally spoiled when she grew up.

However, after the original body was reborn, he only cared about Han Zhongguo and never reminded his parents that the Shen family was framed and demoted.

She occupied the body of her original owner, but she didn't intend to be Han Zhongguo's bootlicker, but the Shen family still had to help.

From the original body's memory, we know that someone would report Mr. Shen on his birthday. Not only did the people from the Revolutionary Committee find a large number of foreign books in the original body's home, but those books also contained evidence that would lead to the downfall of the Shen family.

Mr. Shen was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot and died of illness a few days later.

Without the old man's protection, the Shen family's original parents were dismissed from their positions and demoted to the most difficult place, and several brothers and sisters-in-law were also implicated.

The second uncle's family promptly published a newspaper announcement to sever ties with their children, but only the youngest son was saved.

Almost all the younger generations of the Shen family died or became disabled. Even though they were rehabilitated ten years later, the Shen family had fallen into decline.

The original body was able to be saved at that time because Shen's mother severed ties with her by publishing an advertisement in the newspaper, allowing her to hastily marry Han Zhongguo and thus avoid the fate of being demoted.

If she wants to save the Shen family, she must first save the old man's life.

He Xu was sitting on a chair and couldn't help but prick up his ears when he heard the little girl's words.
