"In our hometown, women should regard men as the most important thing and put men first in everything."
"The only ones who come here to join the army and hang out with us are the sisters-in-law from our hometown. Those in the city all have jobs and don't live here at all. Even if they do, we won't see each other sooner or later."
"When we country women get together, we usually just gossip about other people's affairs. No one has anything serious to say, and no one wants to find a job like the city women do."
"You are different from Captain Gu's family. You have ambitions."
"Look, your ambition has also affected us."
"I am Sister-in-law Hongli, Sister-in-law Hongling."
"That's what they say... 'A red flower becomes redder if it's kept company with a red flower, and a black flower becomes blacker if it's kept company with a black flower.' Yeah, that's the saying."
Wen Tang was surprised, "You went to the literacy class?"
Lin Yu nodded proudly, "Yes!"
"Ever since I found out the job was so easy, I went with Sister Hongli and the others."
Lin Yu said, thinking of something, and took the child closer to Wen Tang. "If Guo Youwei doesn't want me to go, then I will go."
"Now I bring leftovers from school every day, eat early in the evening, and after eating, I wash the children and myself, put the children to bed, and then I go."
"Then what didn't your Guo Youwei say?"
"Let him say that. Anyway, I've already taken care of the child's family. Even if I bring the matter to the political commissar, he won't have any say. I'm not afraid of him."
Wen Tang gave her a thumbs up and said, "You've made great progress!"
As the two were talking, Wen Tang arrived home.
Lin Yu said, "Then you go home. I'll go back soon. After dinner, I have to go to the literacy class."
Wen Tang clenched his fist and said, "Come on!"
Lin Yu followed her example and shyly shouted, "Come on!"
Lin Yu was still shy, but there was obviously light in her eyes!
Wen Tang thought that this was probably the meaning of mutual assistance among women.
To the best of your ability, help fellow men and women who are in distress.
Wen Tang entered the house and Gu Yanli came back just after washing the grapes.
Seeing Gu Yanli, Wen Tang's voice immediately became excited "You're back!"
"Come, try these grapes I bought," Wen Tang said, picking up a grape and stuffing it into Gu Yanli's mouth.
Gu Yanli was attacked suddenly and his mouth was not open too wide, so the grape was held on his lips.
Looking at the half-exposed grapes, Wen Tang swallowed and stood on tiptoe. "This... this one must not be very sweet. I... I'll eat it!" After she said that, she put her lips directly to it.
Are grapes sweet?
Gu Yanli thought it was very sweet, the sweetest he had ever tasted.
Things at the factory needed to be done slowly, so Wen Tang took the time to deliver the lipsticks he had promised to the girls in the art troupe.
When the girls received the lipsticks, they couldn’t help but try the colors immediately, and they were all very happy.
Some couldn't help but beg Wen Tang to sell some again, but Wen Tang shook his head and said, "This is a product that the factory will sell to the outside world in the future. I really can't sell it."
The girl from the art troupe had no choice but to give up.
After giving away the lipstick, Su Xiuxiu walked Wen Tang out, and Wen Tang said to Su Xiuxiu, "Xiuxiu, I may be back in a few days."
"Go back to the countryside?"
"Um!"
"When will you come again?" Su Xiuxiu held Wen Tang's hand, feeling reluctant to let him go.
After getting to know Wen Tang, Su Xiuxiu realized that among friends, one person doesn't have to be a supporting role.
The relationship between the two does not have to be based on interests. It can be just eating and drinking together, and then chatting about things that girls like.
Let’s share good things later.
"About three months, probably after the autumn harvest. I'll come back then."
"Then you must remember to come and see me then."
"Yes, definitely."
Time flies, and Wen Tang has been in Hai City for more than a month.
The hottest time has passed.
Wen Tang must go back because Chi Yue's due date is soon.
She didn't want to be away when her eldest daughter gave birth.
If she wasn't around, she was afraid that Chi Yue would have to find a midwife in the countryside to give birth.
She had to go back and take her best friend to the county hospital.
But the tractor is too bumpy and not very friendly to women who are about to give birth.
It doesn't matter. Wen Tang suddenly had an idea and came up with a good idea. That is to ask Lin Jingshen, the child's biological father, to take her best friend to the county town on a cart.
If you just walk, you can reach the county town in half a day.
Thinking it was feasible, Wen Tang began to prepare things for taking home.
Of course, I have to tell Gu Yanli about this, "My dear husband, I'm going home. Don't miss me too much."
Gu Yanli could tell from the things she bought.
When she went to deliver lipsticks to the art troupe, she bought several sets of children's clothes from the city.
The clothes were so small, Gu Yanli compared them and found that the clothes were almost smaller than his palm.
Only newborn babies can wear it.
No need to think about who it is bought for.
Why buy these things? You must want to take them home!
How to take it home? She has to take it by herself!
Gu Yanli held the person in his arms and asked, "Is it normal if you don't want to?"
Wen Tang shook his head. "That's not normal."
"If you don't miss me, you must be thinking of someone else."
"Don't think I don't know that you men will only behave yourself if you're hung on the wall."
Gu Yanli: "..."
"Then you ask?"
"I'll test you."
"Remember, there are seconds in a day. I allow you to think about me less for 6,400 seconds."
"It's okay, I tripled it, no need to think less, it's also over the limit."
"After all, there are three things I miss about you."
"Um?"
Gu Yanli raised his hand and pointed at his heart, then his brain. As for the last place...
Wen Tang: It’s over, something pressed down on her face.
Wen Tang: "..."
"Well, I can't think of any sweet words. Next time we meet, let's show it with our actions!"
Gu Yanli told her with his actions, "Don't do it next time, do it this time!"
Before going back, Gu Yanli accompanied her to the city to buy things for Zhong Meixian and others.
Everyone in the Gu family has a share.
Wen Tang also bought some delicious food that is not sold in the county town.
There were so many bags and it felt like moving house when I left.
Gu Yanli was very worried and asked, "How about I bring it with me when I go back?"
Wen Tang shook his head. "If you go back, the gifts will be out of season."
"A gift out of season is like love that's late, and love that's late is cheaper than grass."
Gu Yanli: "..."
"Then you're alone?"
"Don't worry, I'll buy two tickets as soon as I get on the bus and put my things on the seat so no one can touch them."
"Don't sleep on the road, don't talk to anyone, and don't eat anything given to you. Once you get to the county town, take a tractor."
"On the way from town to home, give the tractor driver two cents and ask him to help you move forward."
"Yeah, I see."
Gu Yanli looked at her dark little face and still felt uneasy.
Wen Tang patted his chest and assured him, "Don't worry, I'll send you a telegram when I get home to let you know I'm safe."
