Chapter 127 The Envy of Young Girls and Young Wives
After hearing what his young wife said, Zhou Yong raised the corners of his mouth to show his agreement. "Indeed, eliminating potential threats is a good idea, but what if the enemy is too powerful to be eliminated?"
Li Caiyun calmly replied: "Then solve the root problem directly."
She knew very well that no matter how powerful the enemy was, he would have weaknesses. You don't have to fear any enemy as long as you find and exploit their weaknesses.
Zhou Yong slowly opened his eyes, with admiration in his eyes, he looked at Li Caiyun: "I didn't expect you to have such a unique insight into this matter, it shows that you have grown a lot..."
The reason why Li Caiyun can reach such a level is inseparable from Zhou Yong’s careful guidance.
It was Zhou Yong's patient guidance on how to analyze the problem in depth that enabled her to have such insights.
Li Caiyun looked at Zhou Yong, who spoke in an old-fashioned tone. At that moment, she felt that her man seemed no longer a 23-year-old young man, but more like an elder who was patiently teaching the younger one.
"Why are you staring at me?"
Zhou Yong raised his hand and gently stroked Li Caiyun's cheek.
Li Caiyun chuckled: "Just now you gave me the feeling of an elder, don't you think it's weird?"
Zhou Yong's body stiffened and he cleared his throat: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Li Caiyun chuckled and said nothing. Zhou Yong silently reminded himself in his heart: Be more careful in the future so as not to arouse the suspicion of this little girl.
Zhou Yong got up to light the stove, and Li Caiyun lay down and straightened her back.
He was lighting the stove when Li Caiyun, who was lying on the kang, suddenly said, "If I hadn't grown up with you, I would probably doubt your real age."
Zhou Yong's hand holding the wood trembled, and he realized that his wife had something else to say.
After all, he has changed a lot in the past six months. Li Caiyun is his wife. Others may not be able to feel his specific changes, but how could his wife not notice anything?
"Stop thinking about it."
Li Caiyun smiled, Zhou Yong added the wood into the stove, and then he left the house carrying the basket.
After coming out, Zhou Yong breathed a sigh of relief, secretly feeling that Li Caiyun was becoming more and more sensitive.
Isn’t it said that pregnancy makes people stupid for three years?
Why doesn't this work when it comes to my wife?
Zhou Yong was picking up some wood with a basket. Just as he was about to go back to the house, Cao Biao staggered into the Li family's gate.
"Lao Cao, why are you here?"
Cao Biao sneered: "Fuck, don't mention it. Secretary Guo went to the Public Security Brigade to guide the work, and I was almost mad to death..."
Zhou Yong and Cao Biao were talking as he carried a basket of wood into the house.
Guo Xiangqian felt that there were too many idle people in the public security brigade, so he suggested that they go up the mountain to hunt.
Going up the mountain to hunt is fine in the other three seasons, but now it is winter and going up the mountain to hunt is a torture.
It would be fine if there is something to gain from suffering, but I am afraid that after suffering, everyone will return empty-handed.
Furthermore, although the public security brigade appears to have little time, they do not realize that they have endless trivial matters to deal with.
Zhou Yong frowned slightly: "How did you resolve this matter in the end?"
Cao Biao looked very angry: "I didn't buy his story, nor did I indulge him. I just confronted him and made him speechless."
Zhou Yong narrowed his eyes and thought: I hope Guo Xiangqian is not a petty person, otherwise Cao Biao will be in big trouble.
He thought so in his heart, and said: "Brother Cao, Secretary Guo is a village cadre sent by the county after all, give him some face and don't make things too awkward..."
Cao Biao looked at Zhou Yong who was thinking about him, and a smile gradually appeared on his face: "Don't worry, I know what I am doing."
It's not enough for him to know it in his mind. What if Guo Xiangqian is not an open-minded person?
Zhou Yong pondered for a few seconds and said, "Brother Cao, don't judge by appearances. Go back and sit down with Secretary Guo and have a good talk. Don't offend him because of work matters. What if he makes things difficult for you?"
Cao Biao gradually frowned: "No way?"
Zhou Yong hopes that this kind of thing will not happen, but things are unpredictable, so it doesn't hurt to think more about yourself.
Cao Biao couldn't sit still any longer: "Fuck, you don't say it, if there is such a possibility, I have to go talk to Secretary Guo about this matter..."
Zhou Yong checked the time: "Secretary Guo just left my house a while ago. I guess he has returned to his residence."
Cao Biao nodded, indicating that he understood, and left Li's house and went straight to the educated youth's residence.
Zhou Yong looked at Cao Biao's back and smiled. He restrained his smile, turned around and saw Zhang Guifang.
"Mom, has my aunt finished making bean buns?"
Zhang Guifang responded, carrying a plate of bean buns and walking into the yard while talking to Zhou Yong.
"It's still warm in our house. Your aunt's house next door is so cold that mom's hands and feet are stiff from the cold..."
In those days, firewood was rationed, so families with a large population had to calculate the amount of firewood they used to cook.
As for the timber brought up the mountain, it all belongs to the brigade, and no one can cut it down at will without permission.
Of course, you can spend money to buy wood, just like the Li family. Li Baotian bought twenty yuan worth of wood before winter.
Otherwise, there would be nothing to burn in the stove, because every household had limited corn seeds and corn stalks.
"Mom, hurry up and get on the kang to warm up."
Zhang Guifang responded, took off her shoes and got on the kang. Li Caiyun gave up the head of the kang, and Zhou Yong was lighting the stove.
The three of them were chatting when it was time to cook. Zhang Guifang put on an apron and went to the outer room with Li Caiyun to cook. Zhou Yong was not idle either. He took a shoulder pole and a bucket to fetch water.
When Li Baotian arrived home, dinner had already been prepared. The four of them were sitting around the table on the kang. Li Caiyun looked at the food on the table and didn't feel hungry at all.
She had potato chips and steamed bread slices for lunch. It was only a little past three o'clock, so Li Caiyun gritted her teeth and ate a small bowl of rice.
Li Baotian looked at his daughter and said, "Caiyun, why are you only eating a small bowl of rice?"
Zhang Guifang curled her lips: "It must be lunch time."
No one knows a daughter better than her mother, and Zhang Guifang understands her daughter best.
Li Baotian smiled and said, "If I'm hungry at night, I can just steam some egg cakes and eat them..."
Zhang Guifang took over the conversation with a slurred voice: "Caiyun won't starve. There's plenty of food in her room."
Every time Zhou Yong went to the commune or the county town, he would buy delicious food for Li Caiyun, so Zhang Guifang often praised her son-in-law in front of others.
Now everyone in the village knows that Zhou Yong loves his wife to the core, making all the young girls and wives envious.
Li Baotian looked at his son-in-law: "Zhou Yong is much better than Dad was back then. When your mom was pregnant with Caiyun, Dad wasn't as attentive as you..."
It cannot be said that he was not considerate, it was just that life was poor at that time and Li Baotian could not even afford to buy some delicious food for Zhang Guifang.
Zhou Yong received praise from his father-in-law, but he just smiled and continued to struggle with the food.
Li Caiyun looked at Zhou Yong with love and put some food into his bowl.
Zhou Yong looked at his young wife and smiled. The door to the inner room was suddenly pushed open and Xing Laoqi came in panting.
"Village Chief, someone has died, please go over and take a look..."
Li Hongjun and four brothers of the Li family went up the mountain to hunt when they were besieged by a pack of wolves. Only one of them escaped with wounds all over his body. It is said that one of them died on the spot, and the whereabouts of the remaining three are currently unknown.
With a loud bang——
The bowl in Li Baotian's hand fell onto the dining table. Zhang Guifang's face turned pale, and Li Caiyun was unable to react.
Zhou Yong frowned, got up to put on his shoes and asked, "Who is the dead person?"
