Liu Yinyin paused slightly, understood, and immediately smiled more brightly than flowers. She ran to Xia Lei's side, grabbed his arm, and said, "He's inside. It's an old man. I heard from others that he's promoting heresy and has a lot of books in foreign languages. I heard that they're going to lock him up in the cowshed until he dies. The people who bring him food have been investigated, and those with bad class backgrounds have been sent to the Northwest."
“Jiang Ci is the kind of person who only knows crooked ways, and he’s just like that guy in the cowshed.” Disgust flashed in Xia Lei’s eyes. “I’ll find an opportunity to talk to the brigade leader.”
The cowshed was close to their Shanding Brigade, so most of the people assigned to deliver food to the cowshed were from the Shanding Brigade, and the brigade leader was in charge of this.
Liu Yinyin didn't think there was anything wrong with sending Jiang Ci to the Northwest. Such a vicious and ruthless woman needed to be thoroughly reformed in the Northwest, otherwise she couldn't stand Jiang Ci's constant troublemaking.
Liu Yinyin smiled and leaned close to Xia Lei's cheek, giving him a kiss on the face. Her voice was sweet and cloying as she said, "Xia Lei, I'm so happy to have married you."
Xia Lei gave her a long look and said, "Don't cause trouble."
"Can't I even kiss my man in my own home?"
Liu Yinyin smiled like a little fox, making Xia Lei's heart itch with desire.
Xia Lei didn't say anything and kept cooking in silence.
After they finished eating, Liu Yinyin had just coaxed Xia Xi to sleep when Xia Lei carried her into the room.
Sweating profusely, Xia Lei panted and said in a low voice, "You can rest at home this afternoon. I'll take Xixi to the supply and marketing cooperative on my bicycle today to buy some things to deliver to the brigade leader."
Liu Yinyin said lazily, "Okay..."
...
Zhou Mingli stayed outside alone for a while. When he returned, he saw that Jiang Ci was already asleep. The bed was filled with the two children, and Jiang Ci, with her limbs outstretched, didn't even have a chance to get on the bed.
Zhou Mingli sighed, "We still need to get another bed."
After taking a nap, Jiang Ci put on the clothes she wore to work that morning and went to the field to continue picking up wheat ears.
Although she had never done manual labor, Jiangci had already learned the principles of diligence and thrift without any formal instruction.
Her parents praised her when they saw the difference in her appearance.
She was working alongside the same group of middle-aged women, who gossiped about each other's affairs and even asked Jiang Ci in a serious tone, "Jiang Ciqing, how's your Yangyang? Is he badly injured?"
"If it weren't serious, would you not have come to work with me?" Jiang Ci said. "I let the two of them play at home. My husband is watching them. I dare not let them come here again. What if they run into that Xia family kid again and see my daughter with candy and start making a fuss?"
The older women perked up, "You expect Zhou Lao Er to look after two kids? Aren't you afraid he'll sell them to you!"
In the mouths of the older women, the second son this week is nothing.
Jiang Ci's lips twitched. "Let's see if he changes. When I went back for lunch today, he said that his family was almost starving and wanted to take me and the children to the supply and marketing cooperative in town."
At this point, Jiang Ci thought for a moment and added, "My husband also said he wants to buy a bicycle."
An older woman chimed in, "Could it be that you saw Xia, the educated youth, bought Liu, a bicycle, so you're making up lies to fool us?"
Jiang Ci said seriously, "I don't want to compare myself to his family."
No sooner had the words left his mouth than someone exclaimed, "Hey, what's Xia Zhiqing doing riding her bicycle?"
