Chapter 81 Human Touch



When Xie Dahong and Shi Yun really divorced, Xie Wan felt it was quite boring.

Her parents in her previous life were divorced.

She grew up with her grandparents.

Dad has one family, mom has another family, and she and her grandparents have one family.

This made Xie Wan never trust marriage.

After traveling to this era, she thought that people in this era were more loyal to marriage.

In fact, most people's marriages are indeed more solid.

But the bad nature of human beings exists in any dynasty.

Xie Wan began to fear marriage.

She reflected on herself, did she really want to marry Qin Muye?

Do I really like Qin Muye that much?

Even if you like it, do you have to get the certificate?

Tie your own destiny tightly to that of a man.

For women of this era, it may not matter. In fact, most women believe that a woman’s life depends on whether she marries well.

But Xie Wan doesn't think so.

Just because things are good now doesn’t mean they will always be good in the future.

Our parents in our previous life were once in love, but didn’t they eventually go their separate ways?

As for Shi Yun and Xie Dahong now, everyone used to think that Shi Yun had married well, but so what?

Isn't it the case that everyone just runs away when disaster strikes?

Xie Wan thought about it all night but still couldn't come to a conclusion.

She comes from an era where the divorce rate is close to 50 to 60 percent, so it's no wonder she is afraid of marriage.

On the weekend, Xie Wan went downstairs with big dark circles under his eyes.

The house became unusually quiet.

Aunt Zhou had already prepared breakfast and placed it on the table.

"Xiao Wan, eat by yourself. I'll go out and buy some food."

Xie Wan got up so early just to deliver food to the ten families in the compound.

"Aunt Zhou, take a rest. I'll go out and buy some."

Xie Dahong gave Xie Wan an envelope yesterday.

"Xiao Wan, from now on this family will be named Xie. Dad is busy with work, so you should pay more attention to him.

This is dad's salary, you are responsible for the family expenses."

Xie Wan opened the envelope and saw one hundred and twenty yuan, a lot of bills, and grain purchase certificates for the whole family.

Xie Wan was embarrassed: "Dad, I signed up to join the army, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of it for long."

Xie Dahong was surprised: "Why didn't you discuss it with me?

Have you submitted the registration form?"

Xie Wan nodded.

Xie Dahong thought for a moment and said, "It's good to join the army. Dad will help you with some activities. You will definitely be selected."

Based on Xie Wan's past meritorious performance, she will most likely be selected.

But Xie Dahong was willing to help her, so she didn't refuse.

Xie Wan is now in charge of the household expenses. Although she has given Aunt Zhou some money for buying groceries, she wants to go out and buy them herself, and Aunt Zhou has no objection.

Xie Wan pushed his bicycle to the market to buy some meat.

Then she took out more sacks, this time filling them with two full sacks of vegetables.

As soon as I pushed the car to the gate of the compound, I saw Zheng Li pushing Captain Wang to go to the market to buy vegetables.

Zheng Li saw the two sacks on Xie Wan's bicycle and became anxious: "Xiao Wan, is the old farmer selling vegetables here today?"

Xie Wan wiped a cold sweat.

Fortunately, she remembered this and got up early.

She said hurriedly, "I'm coming, I'm coming, but I bought all his cartloads of vegetables."

Zheng Li looked a little unhappy.

Xie Wan quickly explained: “I heard last time that Aunt Zheng wanted to buy it, so I brought it for you.

Aunt Zheng, take a look, there are cucumbers, garlic sprouts, lettuce, peas, eggplants, and cowpeas, you can take some back as well."

Before Zheng Li could make a move, Xie Wan had already grabbed a pile from the sack and piled them on the ground.

Zheng Li smiled brightly when she saw the juicy vegetables, "Xiao Wan, you are so thoughtful. Fortunately, you brought them for me, otherwise I would be late again.

We eat Swiss chard every day at home, but your uncle Wang is a picky eater and won’t even pick up his chopsticks.”

Captain Wang grinned and protested quietly, "It's obviously you who didn't move your chopsticks."

Zheng Li wanted to give Xie Wan money, but Xie Wan refused to take it.

"Aunt Zheng, this is for you. Thank you for protecting me that night."

Captain Wang said seriously: "Xiao Wan, your father is not at home, it is our duty to protect you.

I have to give you the money for the food, otherwise uncle and aunt won’t want it.”

Xie Wan had no idea how much these vegetables cost. They were all picked from her space, so how would she know how much they cost?

"Uncle, aunt, don't give me money this time.

I don’t have a scale either. When my dad isn’t home, I’ll go to your house for a meal.”

After hearing what Xie Wan said, Zheng Li and Captain Wang reluctantly accepted the dishes.

Then Xie Wan pushed his bicycle and delivered vegetables to each household, saying that he had bought too much at home and wanted to share some with everyone.

All ten families that she had harassed that night were sent away.

Everyone wanted to give money, but Xie Wan refused.

After this incident, the military families in the family compound all discussed privately: "Xie Wan is a grateful child. We said something for her that night, and it seems that she has remembered it in her heart."

At noon, several families brought their homemade meat, buns, dumplings and other foods to the Xie family.

When Shi Yun was at home, the Xie family was not so popular and was not so welcomed by military families.

When Xie Dahong saw this, he laughed out loud with joy.

The Xie family had already cooked meat and vegetables, so now there were more dishes.

There are only siblings Xie Wan and Xie Xing in the family now. Together with Xie Dahong and Aunt Zhou, there are only four people in the family.

I can't eat that much.

Xie Dahong asked Xie Wan to call Qin Muye and ask him to come over for dinner.

Xie Wan knew that Qin Muye had gone out to look for wood for furniture today and was not in the army.

"Dad, he's not here. Let's just eat. If we can't finish it, we can heat it up and eat it in the evening."

Xie Wan went to the kitchen and pulled Aunt Zhou out: "When there are no guests at home in the future, Aunt Zhou can eat with us."

When Shi Yun was around, Aunt Zhou was not allowed to eat at the table.

Aunt Zhou declined, saying that she would just eat in the kitchen.

Xie Wan took Aunt Zhou's arm and said, "Aunt Zhou, in my heart, you are like a family member, let's be together."

Xie Dahong had no objection either.

Although he came from a poor peasant family, he treated the working people equally.

It can almost be said that Xie Xing was raised by Aunt Zhou, and he has a good relationship with her.

Aunt Zhou finally sat down at the invitation of her family.

Aunt Zhou's eyes were a little red. She felt that although the Xie family was smaller, they were more human.
