Chapter 5: Haven't her husband and mother-in-law come back yet?



If he wants to climb higher, he has no choice but to give her up!

During his years in the army, Liu Dekai realized that without a background to climb the ranks and without strong capabilities, he would probably only ever be a lowly soldier.

Fortunately, he met the brigade commander's daughter.

Liu Dekai stared at the dark night sky, a slow smile creeping onto his lips.

It's summer now, and the sun is already slowly rising around four or five o'clock.

Farmers get up early so they can get some work done in the fields before the sun is fully up.

It got hot after seven o'clock.

"Why haven't I seen the Liu family's mother and daughter-in-law today?"

"Liu Dekai is back, the whole family is reunited, and they're bound to chat and stay up late."

"That's right, that young couple separated for three years right after getting married, and now they're back..."

The women, who had arranged to go to the fields together, started chatting while idly talking. When they mentioned the young couple from the Liu family, they exchanged glances and let out knowing laughs.

At 11 a.m., Su Yueya finally woke up slowly.

Su Yueya was still a little dizzy after propping herself up on her arms and washing her face with some water. She finally felt more awake.

"mom?"

"husband!"

Su Yueya called out twice, but no one answered. She went to two more rooms, but still couldn't find anyone.

I was a little confused. Weren't we supposed to leave today? Where are my mother-in-law and husband?

Could it be that they need to buy something else, or that they haven't used up their food coupons and went out to buy things?

Su Yueya didn't think too much about it, and even subconsciously ignored the fact that she usually got up at seven or eight o'clock, but today she slept until eleven o'clock, which was very strange.

It was already past eleven o'clock, so Su Yueya took a dollar and went out to buy groceries to prepare a meal.

After a busy morning, at 12:30, Su Yueya brought two dishes and a soup to the table.

A stir-fried pork dish, a spicy and sour cabbage dish, and a seaweed and egg drop soup.

Aside from the meat and seaweed which were bought, the eggs were laid by the two hens at home, and the cabbage was taken out of Su Yueya's space.

Before Liu Dekai returned, the money he sent back was limited. It had to cover the food and drink for the two of them, sometimes buy medicine for his mother-in-law, and take care of the household.

Su Yueya wanted to save money, so she often took out some vegetables from her space. This way, she could save some money on buying vegetables. Moreover, vegetables grown with spiritual spring water are just as good for the body as drinking spiritual spring water.

With the money she saved, Su Yueya would buy her mother-in-law some nourishing things or exchange them for cloth coupons to make clothes for her in the future.

In the past two years, Zhang Cuihua's health has improved a lot because she often drinks spiritual spring water. She has saved more money and can eat meat two or three times a month.

Liu Dekai has only been back for two days, and his family has already eaten meat twice.

Su Yueya and Zhang Cuihua both subconsciously wanted Liu Dekai to eat well, after all, he was a soldier and his health was the most important thing.

Sitting at the table, Su Yueya's stomach kept growling.

She didn't eat much last night, and she didn't eat breakfast this morning either. She's been busy for a long time, so her stomach is growling with hunger.

After waiting for half an hour without seeing her mother-in-law and husband return, Su Yueya couldn't take it anymore. She took out only a portion of the food from the plate and covered the rest with a dishcloth, so they could eat it when they came back.

After eating and washing the dishes, Su Yueya went to check on the four chickens in the yard and then the vegetable garden. After being busy for a while, she was a little tired.

After a quick wash, Su Yueya lay down in the room and fell asleep.

I woke up at six o'clock.

Those who had gone to work in the fields all went home to prepare for their meals.

Su Yueya walked out of the room, and the main room was still as she had tidied it up at noon.

The food on the table remained untouched.

Haven't her husband and mother-in-law come back yet?
