Chapter 45 This is all my belongings
What she subconsciously thought of was the bar of soap she bought at the supply and marketing cooperative that day.
"I'll get it for you." Shang Ruoting walked to the door in a panic. She had just moved in and had not had time to sort out the things she brought, so they were all piled on the ground.
Shang Ruoting searched for a long time and finally found the long bar of soap.
"Here you go." With a blushing face and a beating heart, she handed the soap to Tan Chen.
Tan Chen took what she handed him and asked, "You didn't buy soap?"
Shang Ruoting answered confidently: "The soap is expensive, so I didn't buy it."
Tan Chen didn't say anything, thinking that Shang Ruoting was reluctant to use soap on him.
I used to use soap when taking a shower in the army, so it didn’t matter.
However, he didn't know what was wrong with him today. He was afraid that the woman didn't like the smell of him, so he asked for soap.
As a result, people were reluctant to give it to him...
Tan Chen was washing his body while talking to Shang Ruoting.
"Today I gave my grandma the yuan in compensation, but she just stuffed thirty yuan back at me."
"Later, I couldn't refuse, so I had no choice but to accept the 20 yuan."
Shang Ruoting had long expected that Old Lady Shang would do this.
"Medical expenses and money for that new dress?"
Tan Chen nodded: "Well, she said that we just got married and we will need a lot of money in the future, so I must accept it."
"Well, grandma gives it to you, just keep it." Shang Ruoting didn't think it was a big deal. She would be surprised if Grandma Shang didn't give Tan Chen money.
As the two were talking, Tan Chen finished washing up. Shang Ruoting took out a pear and broke it into two halves with force.
She handed half of it to Tan Chen: "Hey, try the pears I bought today."
Tan Chen took it, realized it was half a pear, and gave it back to Shang Ruoting: "You can't share a pear."
Shang Ruoting was puzzled: "Why?"
Tan Chen was obviously a little embarrassed: "Fen Li means separation."
"Hahaha, are you afraid that I will leave you?"
Shang Ruoting didn't expect that this man still believed this nonsense, and she laughed in an unkind way.
Tan Chen's expression was still very serious: "If you don't dislike me, stay. I will definitely treat you well."
"The doctor also said that my blindness is only temporary. I'll be able to recover once the blood clot in my brain is completely absorbed."
"Then I can work and support you."
Although Shang Ruoting had learned all this from books, she didn't expect Tan Chen to tell her so sincerely.
Why do I feel inexplicably touched?
There is no love between them now, and I believe Tan Chen has considered it carefully before saying such words.
"Can I understand that you want me to stay and live a good life with you?"
Tan Chen nodded affirmatively: "Yes."
His answer did not contain any fancy words, just this one word made Shang Ruoting feel it was very real.
"You don't even know what I look like. What if you don't like my appearance?"
Tan Chen smiled: "You didn't say a word of disdain when I look like this, so why should I care about your appearance?"
Shang Ruoting suddenly felt that if this man could really treat her well and live a good life with her, then she could also try to develop feelings with him.
"I think the emotional foundation is also very important for a couple to live together."
"To put it bluntly, this is a blind marriage between the two of us. We don't really know each other well."
"Why don't we try to get along with each other. If we can get into each other's hearts, we can live together forever."
"On the contrary, a marriage without love is very tiring to maintain. I would rather give up."
Tan Chen didn't expect that a girl who was born and raised in the countryside could speak such profound truths.
However, he also agreed with her.
"Okay, let's give it a try and give each other a chance. The deadline is determined by
You decide!"
Shang Ruoting thought for a moment and said, "Why don't we set a deadline?"
"What if you fall in love with someone else and still have to stick to the deadline? Wouldn't that be very torturous?"
When she said this, the first person she thought of was Shang Ruolian.
Tan Chen nodded: "Okay, I'll do as you say."
After saying that, he put on his shoes and groped his way towards the two suitcases.
He took out the key and opened the top box. This time, he did not cover it up, but opened the lid completely.
Shang Ruoting looked over in the dim light.
There were several stacks of books neatly arranged in the box. Due to the dim light, she could not see the names of the books clearly. She could only vaguely see the word "Algebra" written on the cover of one book.
There was a brown paper envelope on top of the book. Tan Chen fumbled to pick up the envelope and handed it to Shang Ruoting. He then took out the twenty yuan that Old Lady Shang had given him today from his shirt pocket and handed it all to Shang Ruoting.
"All my belongings are in here. From today on, everything is handed over to you."
Shang Ruoting took the heavy envelope, opened it and saw a thick stack of great unity.
"Where does all this money come from?"
Tan Chen patiently explained to her: "I was injured and discharged from the army, and the army gave me a pension of one thousand yuan."
"And there's also the two hundred yuan that Gao Ming and the others brought, which my comrades chipped in for my wedding."
"Excluding the one hundred yuan I gave my mom when I got back, and the ten yuan I gave you the day before yesterday, there should be a little over a thousand left."
Shang Ruoting counted carefully: "Here are 1,060 yuan."
