"Sir, I've prepared the hot water. I'll go get lunch in a bit. Sister-in-law, do you have any dietary restrictions?"
Wen Qiao's expression was somewhat unnatural. She immediately got out of bed and sat down on a chair next to her.
"I don't have any dietary restrictions, so I'll trouble you with Zhang Wenshu."
"You're too kind, sister-in-law."
Wen Qiao looked up at Zhang Wenshu and saw that he seemed to have something to say.
Wen Qiao got up and told Shen Jichuan that she was going to the restroom.
Zhang Wenshui, who was in the ward, soon came out as well.
Wen Qiao took the initiative to ask, "Zhang Wenshu, is there something you want to tell me?"
"Sister-in-law, actually, I didn't know whether I should say this or not."
"Just now, when I went to get hot water, I saw Comrade Yu Mengxian. She hasn't left the hospital. I don't know if she will come to bother Deputy Division Commander Shen again. I think it's better to tell you about this to be on the safe side."
Wen Qiao immediately said, "Zhang Wenshu, thank you for telling me this."
Zhang Wenshu didn't say anything, but went to get lunch.
Wen Qiao stood at the door for a moment and thought carefully about what Yu Mengxian wanted to do.
She initially came to Northwest China intending to marry Shen Jichuan.
Wen Qiao didn't believe that Yu Mengxian didn't know Shen Jichuan was married before she came, but she still came anyway.
A woman who had been living abroad for many years suddenly returned to China and became a diplomat.
If she wanted to marry Shen Jichuan, what was she doing for the past ten years or so?
After much thought, Wen Qiao could only come up with two reasons.
First, Yu Mengxian got into trouble abroad.
Things that happen abroad are not clearly investigated domestically.
However, given that Yu Mengxian was able to become a diplomat, it's impossible that no one investigated her background.
If there were any problems, they would have been exposed long ago.
Secondly, Yu Mengxian's coming to the Northwest was not necessarily to marry Shen Jichuan.
She probably wanted to get some military secrets from Shen Jichuan.
She had heard Li Qin's sister-in-law mention it a few times, saying that Yu Mengxian was really rich and had become Director Li's cash cow.
Wen Qiao, not paying much attention, remarked, "Isn't 'money tree' a bit of an exaggeration?"
Knowing that Yu Mengxian could spend seven or eight yuan a day on the Li family, Wen Qiao also felt that this Yu Mengxian was frighteningly rich.
Every household spends two or three hundred yuan a month.
When Wen Qiao returned from the bathroom, she saw Shen Jichuan lying on the hospital bed reading a book.
When he saw Wen Qiao arrive, he asked, "Why were you gone for so long? Was it inconvenient to go to the toilet?"
Wen Qiao said, "No, just be careful."
Thinking about Zhang Wenshu's words, she asked Shen Jichuan a question.
"Yu Mengxian, what is her family background?"
Shen Jichuan immediately closed the book, his face showing worry.
"Did Yu Mengxian attack you because of your background?"
He received Wen Qiao's letter while patrolling the border, and he genuinely believed that Wen Qiao was doing well at home.
Seeing Yu Mengxian and Wang Yueju targeting Wen Qiao today, he immediately understood.
If he isn't tough enough, his wife will be bullied by anyone.
"From now on, as long as I'm here, no one will be able to bully you."
Wen Qiao simply asked Yu Mengxian about her family background.
The questions Shen Jichuan asked were all true events.
Yu Mengxian did indeed use her identity to attack Wen Qiao.
But Wen Qiao was more interested in knowing Yu Mengxian's family background.
“Her father was a diplomat. Actually, it was just because of the circumstances at the time that the country needed people who could speak foreign languages. Her father had studied in an island country and was considered a high-achieving student. Plus, my father acted as a guarantor for him.”
"Her father went to the island nation for three years and then returned to work in China. Only her father worked in their family. They weren't wealthy, but they were much better off than the average family."
"Yu Mengxian is their only daughter, so they dote on her a bit more."
"After that, I went to the United States, and I don't know much about that."
“Wen Qiao, no matter what Yu Mengxian’s identity is, it has nothing to do with me. You are my wife, you are my wife, Shen Jichuan’s wife.”
Wen Qiao didn't listen to what Shen Jichuan said next; she was just thinking that the Yu family wasn't a wealthy family.
Where did Yu Mengxian get her money?
