Li Jian has dark skin, well-proportioned features, thick eyebrows and big eyes. He is one meter tall, taller than the average southern man and looks decent.

However, at this moment, Li Jian's face was full of disgust without any concealment. Coupled with the hard life in the past two years, he has become very decadent and even a little bit wretched, and he does not look so good.

As the saying goes, appearance determines the heart, and the most important thing in a person is his spirit. Li Jian is now tortured by life. Even though he has a good figure and facial features, he is not considered a good match.

Zhan Hongyan doesn't think so. Even though Li Jian has two sons and a sickly sister to raise, she thinks she has the script of Reborn Big Girl and knows the future plot. It doesn't matter if she works a little harder now, as long as she can be happy in the future.

"What are you thinking about? The radio just said that Captain Sheng will be back in the army tomorrow. Go find him while he's still here and tell him that you regret it and still want to marry him."

Li Jian saw that Zhan Hongyan didn't say anything for a long time, her voice was cold, and the expression on her face was even more disgusted.

I'm afraid Zhan Hongyan's brain isn't very useful, and she doesn't seem to be as smart as Zhan Xinyue.

Having lived two lifetimes and seen countless men, Zhan Hongyan could understand Li Jian's expression and knew that he was extremely reluctant to marry her.

Zhan Hongyan was also very unhappy at this moment. Li Jian was not one tenth as handsome as Sheng Tunan. He was not as good as him in any way. If it wasn't for the money, she would not have chosen Li Jian even if she was blind.

"If you don't have money, you don't have face. Dignity is worthless. If you don't have money, you will be a rich man in the future."

Zhan Hongyan closed her eyes, clenched her fists to hypnotize herself, and after a breath, she opened her eyes, smiled ingratiatingly, and whispered softly,

"Brother Li, that's not what I meant. I just thought we should make the wedding more lively so that you can have more face."

"However, I just realized that face is worthless. The two of us should live our lives well. Brother Li, I know that you will be a hundred times or a thousand times stronger than Sheng Tunan in the future. I don't like him, but I am willing to spend my life with you."

Zhan Hongyan's face was a little stiff from her fake smile. After she was reborn, she had thought about starting her own business without relying on men, but she had perfectly inherited Chen Juxiang's laziness. Normally, she would not even come to work until Zhan Aiguo hurried over. She would drag her feet all day and could only get 6 work points at most.

Not to mention the early days of the business, when I had to get up early and work day and night.

Just leave this kind of hard work to Li Jian. Zhan Hongyan was born to enjoy a good life, and it is her dream to reap the benefits of others' success.

"Hmph, I hope you are telling the truth." Li Jian gave Zhan Hongyan a blank look.

"It's absolutely true. Brother Li, you see, we should get the marriage certificate before it gets too hot, and then invite most of the army officers and relatives and friends to have a meal. I want to get married early to take care of Jinyan and Shenxing. I have a connection with the two children and I like them at first sight."

Zhan Hongyan continued to try to please him. She was afraid that the man she had just got would fly away, so she just wanted to get a marriage certificate with Li Jian as soon as possible to settle the matter.

"Have you agreed to the 50 yuan dowry?" Li Jian asked. The cadre must have invited her. If Zhan Hongyan brought 50 yuan, he would use part of the money to buy meat.

"Here." Zhan Hongyan gritted her teeth.

Li Jian: "I have to go back and discuss this with my sister."

Since the death of Li Jian's parents, Liu Ruyan has been in charge of all the big and small things in the family.

"Of course I should. My parents-in-law are gone now. I should talk to my sister about marriage."

Zhan Hongyan smiled with her long and narrow eyes, her shamelessness was jaw-dropping. Before she even got married, she called Li Jian's parents "parents-in-law" very naturally.

It is not easy to live a new life. Even if she has to rely on others, she will not rely on entering the Li family.

After she got married and was loved by her two children, she kicked Liu Ruyun out of the house.

That sister-in-law appears to be weak and timid on the surface, but she is actually very cunning and you can tell at first glance that she is not a good person! !

"You know your face!" Li Jian was not smart and could not see that Zhan Hongyan said one thing on the surface and did another in her heart.

He could not guess that Zhan Hongyan was plotting against the child bride who had given birth to his two sons.

"Work hard. Your parents can't control you. When you marry me, you are not allowed to be lazy at work. You must get ten work points every day. The new moon is always ten."

Li Jian warned, and complained that Zhan Hongyan was not as diligent as Zhan Xinyue.

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you, Big Brother Li." Zhan Hongyan's fake smile could no longer be maintained. She pinched her palms and tried her best to maintain her virtuous image.

Li Jian still looked at Zhan Hongyan with dissatisfaction and went back to work.

It was too stressful for him to have someone in the family who couldn't work, and he wanted to marry Zhan Hongyan as soon as possible, hoping that after marriage, Zhan Hongyan could be as hardworking as Zhan Xinyue.

Zhan Xinyue, who was still in the brigade headquarters, had no idea that Li Jian was thinking about her. She sat under an old tree to enjoy the cool air while Sheng Tunan continued talking to Secretary Liu.

"Secretary Liu, there is one more thing."

"You said, if you can help, you must help. If you can't help, you must create conditions to help!"

Secretary Liu said cheerfully that in this Shili Township, no, in the whole Zhi County, only Changhong Village had a regiment leader, and as the secretary, he would be proud of it.

Every time they went to the commune for a meeting, their Changhong Village would be rated as an advanced production brigade because of the great contribution made by Sheng Tunan and the fact that their production was quite good.

Secretary Liu knew that Sheng Tunan had contributed more than half of the credit. In 2001, the output of the neighboring Niushi Village was higher than that of Changhong Village, but because the brigade had no officers and a thief, it was not rated as an advanced brigade.

"According to military regulations, the families of officers at or above the battalion commander level can follow the troops and live in the military compound. When you come back, you will take Xinyue to the troops. She will not need to share rations with the brigade at the end of the year, so, this month or so..."

Secretary Liu understood this time, and before Sheng Tunan finished speaking, he waved his hand and said, "No need to go to work. Zhan Zhi, you should stay at the Sheng family this month to take care of grandma and wait for Captain Sheng to come back and join the army."

Sheng Tunan: "Thank you, Secretary Liu."

Zhan Xinyue also said: "Thank you."

Secretary Liu smiled and said, "You're welcome. I'm glad to see that you two are so close. Director Sheng is young and promising, ambitious and hardworking. You will surely live a prosperous life in the future."

"Go back, say hello to grandma, and then return to the unit as soon as possible. Drive carefully on the road."

"Okay." Sheng Tunan nodded and drove home with Zhan Xinyue.

"Thank you, Captain Sheng." As soon as she got in the car, Zhan Xinyue spoke with gratitude.

Rather than doing repetitive labor at work, she would rather spend her time on more productive things, such as collecting herbs or looking for honey in the fields.

However, in the 1970s, how could young people who were not sick or disabled not go to work?

Sheng Tunan didn't know that she wanted to go to school, but he must have been reluctant to let her suffer and felt sorry for her, so he went to the brigade headquarters to tell Secretary Liu.

"Xinyue, we are getting married soon, no need to be so polite."

When Sheng Tunan and Zhan Xinyue talked, their voices were always warm and clear.

"Also, considering your relationship, I won't call you Captain Seong anymore. You can be more intimate. I think a two-word title is fine."
