If she went to the county guesthouse, she wouldn't be able to get in touch with Shen Jichuan. She didn't want to die a miserable death, so she had to cling to Shen Jichuan's coattails.
"Brother Wang, my things are still at Director Li's house. I'll go get them from Director Li first. You just got back too, you must be very tired. Go home and rest first."
Before Wang Gang could finish speaking, Yu Mengxian quickly walked towards Director Li's house.
Yu Mengxian did not come from the military farm with them; she came directly to the Northwest military camp. The only news she heard in Beicheng was that Shen Jichuan had been sent down to the Northwest.
She had heard a little about Shen Jichuan's marriage and that he had married a woman from the countryside. Because she was in a hurry to come to the Northwest to find Shen Jichuan, she didn't ask any more questions.
Upon arriving at the Northwest military camp, the first person she met was Wang Yueju, the wife of Director Li.
That day, she was waiting at the gate for the guard to deliver a message to the leader when Wang Yueju returned from outside. Yu Mengxian took the initiative to go up and greet her.
After exchanging warm and polite words, Wang Yueju, who loved being praised, naturally became familiar with Yu Mengxian.
Upon learning that Yu Mengxian was from Beicheng, Wang Yueju was given several nationally valid cloth coupons. Wang Yueju immediately treated Yu Mengxian with the same warmth as a family member.
Yu Mengxian is now going to Director Li's house, and she is going to see Wang Yueju.
She had to stay in the family compound; otherwise, how could she have more contact with Shen Jichuan?
When Yu Mengxian knocked on the door, Wang Yueju was gossiping with Director Li about Shen Jichuan's affairs. She didn't expect Yu Mengxian to come knocking on the door.
Wang Yueju added, "They must be here to pick up their luggage."
“I think she’s a pretty good person. She gave me several cloth coupons that can be used all over the country. I haven’t been able to use our family’s cloth coupons, but I’m going to use all of these on myself.”
Wang Yueju was overjoyed at the thought of wearing new clothes soon.
He turned around and went to open the door for Yu Mengxian, who had called for him.
"Hey girl, you're here to pick up your luggage, right? Wait here, I'll go get it for you right now."
"How did your talk with Deputy Division Commander Shen go? Actually, let me tell you, Deputy Division Commander Shen and you are quite a good match. That Wen Qiao is too young. Look at her, standing next to Deputy Division Commander Shen, she looks like an old man and a young woman, but if you didn't know better, you would think she is a daughter and her father."
It was hard to tell whether Yu Mengxian's expression was good or bad.
Wang Yueju really doesn't know how to speak properly.
She was ostensibly praising her and Shen Jichuan for being a good match, but her words sounded like she was saying that Wen Qiao was older and younger than Wen Qiao.
“Sister-in-law, I’d like to stay at your house for a few days, is that alright? I can pay you, I’ll give you five yuan a day. Don’t worry, you can keep the money and don’t tell anyone. Just say I’m your sister and I’m staying at your house for a few days.”
"As you know, I just arrived in the Northwest and I don't know anyone here. I've heard that this place is quite chaotic. It's not safe for a woman like me to stay in a guesthouse."
Wang Yueju's mind was filled with nothing but five yuan a day...
As for what Yu Mengxian said later, she didn't hear a single word.
***
After Shen Jichuan followed Wen Qiao back into the house, Wen Qiao, who had been very affectionate towards him in the courtyard, suddenly turned cold.
He hurried forward, and a hint of panic and helplessness appeared on the usually composed old man's face, as he was afraid that Wen Qiao would sulk and not ask or say anything.
"Wen Qiao, just ask what you want to ask. Don't get angry. You're pregnant."
Wen Qiao actually knew a little bit about it; when she first arrived at the Shen family, the Shen family's nanny, Sister Ling, mentioned it casually.
It is said that the room on the second floor was prepared for the husband's first love.
Wen Qiao didn't care at the time, she didn't care when she got married, and she didn't care before she came to Northwest China.
But now, his first love, who was supposedly married young, has reappeared and even found him and his wife.
Wen Qiao couldn't possibly not be angry.
"She was your first love? Did she come to see you this time because she still can't forget you and wants to get back together with you?"
Shen Jichuan immediately denied it, saying, "It wasn't my first love. We were never together. As for lingering feelings or going back to an ex, I don't know, and I didn't ask."
“Wen Qiao, I knew she was coming to the Northwest about half an hour apart from you.”
"I can assure you, this blade of grass is yours, and no one else can have it."
Wen Qiao pursed her lips.
"Are you trying to soothe a child?"
Shen Jichuan chuckled lightly, "In my eyes, you're just a child."
"Let me tell you about my relationship with her; it's not what you think."
