There was no need to buy anything this time, so Chen Wu and Xu Yin didn't go with them.
Less than twenty minutes after the two of them left, Xu Yin came over with a small blanket. Seeing Chen Wu half-lying on the bed reading in front of the kerosene lamp, she took the book from her hand.
"You're reading in this light, and you're pregnant, so you don't want your eyes anymore?"
Chen Wu automatically made room for her: "I think this damage is probably not as fast as the damage to my eyes when I turn off the lights and lie on my side watching videos at night."
He patted the spot where he had been lying and said, "Hurry up, it's still hot."
Xu Yin put the book down, covered herself with her own blanket, and looked at Shen Wu, looking her up and down, and finally settled on her belly: "Are you really pregnant?"
"How about we wait a few days for me to rest and then go to the hospital for a checkup?"
Xu Yin lowered her head: "Let me listen."
As he said this, he moved closer to her belly.
Before she put it on, she heard a "gurgle" sound, and Xu Yin was so scared that she sat up straight again.
Shen Wu whispered, "That's the sound of my stomach digesting food."
"You probably can't even hear the child right now, and you don't even know if he's as big as a bean sprout."
Xu Yin thought about it and simply lay down, wanting to put her legs on her, but in the end she thought better of it: "Have you ever thought about the future, is it like this?"
Chen Wu sighed, "I've thought about it, but I haven't come up with anything. Can I go back? I don't know. What if I go back? What if I can't go back? There's no result."
"Let's live the present life well first." Chen Wu has been like this since she was a child. If she can't see the future, she will live in the present first.
Xu Yin actually couldn't think of anything like Zi, Wu, Yin, and Chou: "Okay."
Chen Wu suddenly remembered something and spoke to Xu Yin with renewed energy, "This year's quota for the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University program has been announced, and one is available in Laoya Village. If you're really tired of staying in this small village, why not try to get a spot there? You can go to the city for a reasonable amount of time."
Xu Yin asked, "Did you choose one?"
Shen Wu nodded.
"Do you think I can be elected?"
Some time ago, when the weather was not cold, Lanlan helped everyone to work. She also followed the children to cut grass for the pigs, and the pigs grew four and a half centimeters a day.
She doesn't like to socialize with the villagers.
It would be strange if she was elected.
"Many people at the Youth Educatorate Institute really want to return to the city. I've inquired and learned that even if they are nominated, they still have to take exams and make a comprehensive assessment to decide who will go to university."
All the educated youth have been in the countryside for many years. They have not married in the countryside, nor have they become close to their fellow villagers. They even look forward to returning to the city when they go to bed. The people in the educated youth institute come from many places, but they are still very united in the countryside when there is no conflict of interest among people of the same status.
Every year when there are quotas for workers, peasants and soldiers to study at university, the educated youth are most restless. Even Lin Xin is looking forward to going back.
Xu Yin stared at her: "Unless you take the exam too."
"It's useless for me to take the exam. Laoya Village is so big, but there's only one quota, and it's chosen from farmers and educated youth. There aren't many workers in our village, and the only one, Lu Laoer, was sent to a farm."
Xu Yin: "Then I won't take the exam either."
The two of them couldn't sleep, and they kept whispering to each other in the middle of the night, talking about their past lives and this life. The last part was that they cursed the author of the book for a while, and then cursed the author for getting into her book.
Chen Wu fell asleep first.
It was when Xu Yin left that she woke up when she heard some noise.
In a daze, Shen Wu looked at her holding the small blanket.
Xu Yin said: "They are back."
Shen Wu listened and realized she heard nothing, "How did you know?"
"The donkey cart just passed by Lu's house. They should be returning the cart now. I won't say anything else to you. I'm leaving." Xu Yin kicked off her slippers and left quickly, quietly.
After about ten minutes, Lu Xuan opened the door.
Seeing Chen Wu half lying on the bed and not asleep yet, he subconsciously looked at the clock. It was almost four o'clock: "Not asleep yet."
"I woke up from a nap and dreamed about you. I missed you a little bit, so I wanted to wait for you." As she spoke, Chen Wu stretched out her arms: "Hug me, Third Brother."
It was late at night and it was already cold outside. Lu Xuan was covered in dew. Looking at her under the light, his heart softened.
Take off your coat and wash your hands before walking over.
Chen Wu hugged his waist, her face pressed against his abdominal muscles, and suddenly raised her head: "How much did it sell for?"
Lu Xuan took out some money from his pocket and said, "Ninety-three. Although the fourth brother doesn't go to the mountains very often, he usually cuts and dries some grass to feed the rabbits. Give him thirty-five. We have six kilograms of cotton. I heard that drinking milk is good for you, so the man got some milk powder from the city, unsealed and in bulk. I bought you two kilograms, a bag of chrysanthemum crystals, and some new-colored fabric. I also bought you a piece..."
Shen Wu listened, and finally looked at the milk powder, chrysanthemum crystals, and bright red fabric. These things were not cheap, and sighed: "I think I've spent enough money, Third Brother, you spend more than me."
Lu Xuan said: "The money you earn is to be spent."
He said so, and Shen Wu looked and saw that Lu Xuan didn't buy anything for her.
Lu Xuan hid the remaining money, washed his hands and feet, and lay down on the bed. He felt that he was still a little warm. "Did you sleep here with me?"
"I missed you so much that I couldn't sleep, so I just slept next to you."
When Lu Xuan heard this, he used his long arms to pull her into his arms. It was cold, and Shen Wu didn't refuse. She rubbed against him and soon fell asleep again.
When I wake up in the morning and cook.
Xu Yin gave her the milk powder and said, "You drink it. Lu Ye bought some for me too in order not to lose to his brother."
At this point, Xu Yin felt a little helpless: "Tell me, why hasn't he recognized it yet?"
"He was misled by you from the beginning. The villagers also said that we became close because of the good relationship between the third and fourth brothers, so he didn't think otherwise."
Not to mention Lu Ye misunderstood, even Lan Lan misunderstood.
Chen Wu was thinking about Lan Lan, and Lan Lan came out. She woke up and shuddered, then looked at Lao Wu and said, "Cheng, how are you preparing for the thing I told you about last time?"
Lu Cheng hasn't mentioned it to his parents yet. If he does something, he will also cause something to happen in their house.
Now that his mother had asked him, he gritted his teeth and said, "Soon, in the next two days."
After thinking for a moment, he added, "Mom, if you're really cold, just move to your third and fourth brothers' place. Their houses are so big, how could they not let you live there?"
Old Mrs. Lu hasn't spoken yet.
A voice drifted over from next door: "Lanlan, your old man doesn't want to support you anymore!"
Old Mrs. Feng's voice came from next door.
There have been fewer people going to the fields recently, and when these two old ladies are free, they quarrel all the time. However, enemies know their enemies best, and their words are often very sharp.
"Feng Fangpi, stop spreading rumors and take good care of your four grandsons who you got for free." Old Mrs. Lu shouted, standing on tiptoe.
While shouting this, Old Lady Lu didn't originally think that Old Fifth didn't want to support her, but since her mortal enemy had said so, she always felt a little uncomfortable in her heart and looked at Lu Cheng.
Lu Cheng quickly said, "Mom, I didn't mean that. I only mentioned it because I was afraid you would feel uncomfortable."
At this moment, Chen Wu opened the kitchen door and came out——
