Chapter 38



After the mosquito nets on both sides were hung, Lin Wanxun said, "The water is already hanging there. When she wakes up later, take her to pee and then make some milk for her to drink."

She had made an appointment with Ji Hualan to go wash clothes together later. Seeing that his leg didn't seem to be a big problem, Lin Wanchun didn't bother to be polite with him and directly assigned him a task.

Qin Yan listened to her detailed explanation without a trace of impatience on his face, and nodded seriously.

"Okay, I understand."

Knowing that he was a stable and reliable person, Lin Wanfang had nothing to worry about.

After she finished explaining, she left.

In summer, the sun rises early. It is just past 5 o'clock when the sky is already white.

Lin Wanchun picked up the bucket of dirty clothes, took a soap, and went out.

I heard from Ji Hualan that the place for washing clothes was in a small river near the courtyard.

Although the family doesn't need to fetch water, everyone thinks washing clothes in the river is cleaner, so usually no one washes clothes at home.

Lin Wanxun came to Ji Hualan's door carrying a bucket.

But before she could shout, she saw Ji Hualan coming out of the shower room carrying a bucket.

"Wanchun, why are you here so early? I wanted to come find you."

She asked in surprise.

"I was afraid that I would be late and not get a good seat, so I got up early."

Generally, when you go to the river to wash clothes, you have to find a suitable stone. The stones are limited, so you have to go early to get a good position.

Ji Hualan had obviously suffered the loss of not getting a seat, so after hearing what she said, she stopped talking and walked quickly out the door with the bucket in her hand.

"Come on, I know the most comfortable place to wash clothes. Let's go early while it's still early."

Lin Wanxun had just arrived and didn't even know where the river was.

I decided to stay with Ding Ji Hualan the whole day.

The two walked side by side, talking and laughing, all the way to the back door of the family compound.

"Hey, Wanchun, how did you make the egg cake yesterday? My two kids made a fuss all night after eating it, and they insisted that I make it for them today."

She took a small bite of yesterday's cake and it tasted simply amazing.

It's fragrant, sweet, soft and dense.

Not only do the children like to eat it, even she, an adult, can't stop craving for it.

Nowadays, no matter who is doing business, if someone has good food, they are basically willing to share it with others.

There is nothing to lose, and it can also bring you closer together, so why not?

Lin Wanxun naturally had no intention of hiding it.

She wasn't ready to do business.

"This is very simple. I'll teach you whenever you want to do it."

Seeing how magnanimous she was, Ji Hua Lanxin had a better impression of her.

The two men were originally partners, and as family members, it would be best for them to have a good relationship.

Before she came to the family home, Ji Hualan was a little worried that she wouldn't be able to get along with her.

I didn't expect that despite his young age, he was so thoughtful in everything.

In return, Ji Hualan naturally told her everything about the situations of each family in the family compound without reservation.

Before reaching the river, Lin Wanchun had a better understanding of the family compound.

The focus is on Huang Fengying, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law!

"They say that those who are pitied must have something they hate. We advised her not to give the job to her sister-in-law, but guess what? She even accused us of stirring up trouble with her mother-in-law!"

She was a military wife in the city and she still had a job. Marrying Zhou Tianzhu, who came from the countryside, was already a step down. Why should she put herself in such a difficult position?

However, she felt guilty and sorry for the Zhou family. No matter how they persuaded her, she was determined to give the job to her sister-in-law.

She thought that by doing so, her mother-in-law would at least remember her and treat her better.

But she never expected that after she lost her job and gave birth to three daughters in a row, she was either beaten or scolded by her mother-in-law every day, living like a young daughter-in-law in the old society.

Lin Wanchun did not comment much on Huang Fengying's experience.

All of this is other people's business and has nothing to do with her.

After going through the back door, less than a hundred meters away was the small river where they usually washed clothes.

"Our land is right there. We can draw water from here to grow vegetables. It's very convenient."

Ji Hualan pointed to the right.

Lin Wanxun looked in the direction of her gaze and saw a large green vegetable field.

Looking at the green vegetables growing well, she felt itchy and wished she could open up a field of them soon.

"That's a paddy field. It'll be time to harvest the rice in a few days."

Ji Hualan pointed to the golden rice fields in the distance.

Both vegetable fields and paddy fields are on both sides of the river, so watering is very convenient.

Ji Hualan was pointing out to Lin Wanchun the land that would be cultivated in the future, when suddenly, a voice full of resentment came from behind her.

"Wanwan, why didn't you call me while you were washing clothes?"

Seeing that it was Yu Fangfang, Ji Hualan was a little shocked.

I don't know whether I was shocked that she came to do the laundry, or that she addressed Lin Wanchun so intimately.

Unable to hold back, Ji Hualan asked, "Wanchun, are you acquainted with Comrade Yu Fangfang?"

Otherwise, how could she, a person with high standards, be so good to Lin Wanshun?

Hearing this, Yu Fangfang rolled her eyes.

"We met yesterday. Why, you are allowed to be with Wan Wan, but I am not allowed to be close to myself?"

After saying that, she carried the bucket and stood on the other side of Lin Wanchun.

If you don’t know, you might think they are just jealous of each other.

Lin Wanchun felt somewhat helpless and somewhat amused.

"I didn't know you got up so early, so I didn't call you."

Hearing this, Yu Fangfang's face flashed a trace of discomfort, and then she straightened her chest and said, "That was in the past. I will get up very early in the future. Remember to call me when you are done washing clothes in the morning."

Ji Hualan: ...

Did she take the wrong medicine? Or is the sun rising from the west?

Who doesn’t know who Yu Fangfang is?

She said she liked to wash clothes at home, but in the end it was discovered that Feng Yandongwan secretly washed all the clothes in her house while hiding in the shower room.

However, no matter how shocked she was, Ji Hualan naturally would not refuse her request to do the laundry with them.

After walking through the winding path for a while, we arrived at the river.

The stream is fairly wide, the water flows gently, and both sides of the river are lined with rocks of varying sizes and shapes.

Those flat stones must have been washed every day, and their surfaces have become smooth.

When they arrived, there were already several military wives doing laundry in Shitan.

Huang Fengying is there.

She was seen sitting on a rock, holding a pair of gloves in one hand and a mallet in the other, beating the clothes in front of her non-stop. Her big belly shook with her movements.

"Fengying, what's wrong with your face? Did your mother-in-law beat you?"

Yang Zheng looked at her red and swollen right cheek and couldn't help but ask with concern.

Hearing this, Huang Fengying turned her head subconsciously and said hesitantly, "No, why would my mother-in-law hit me? I accidentally bumped into the wall last night."
