Zhu Xiaomin chuckled.
“Wang Zhiqing, you’re quite confident. Well then, I’ll mercifully tell you that Hu Qinghua went back to her family to get married. You can wait here to die and you’ll never hear a word from her again.”
"Impossible! My relationship with Comrade Hu has stood the test of time. How could she possibly go back to get married?"
With whom?
Zhu Xiaomin gave a disdainful look:
You know Zhou Zhiqing, right?
Wang Jianguo had a strange expression, as if he had suffered a huge blow, and slumped back down.
"It's actually Zhou Zhiqing! Could it be that they were already there back then?"
Zhu Xiaomin quickly interrupted his wild thoughts.
"Don't overthink it. Zhou Zhiqing is a battalion commander. He only came here on a mission. Besides, he has his eye on Jiang Zhiqing."
Hu, a educated youth, thought he was clever enough to take Jiang's place in the military marriage, but he was exposed as soon as they met.
Now it's all been for nothing; they're currently undergoing reform at a farm in the Qilian Mountains!
"No way! How could someone be so shameless as to try to impersonate someone else?"
Wang Guihua was also very surprised to hear this.
Wang Jianguo sat numbly in his seat, his hands clenched into fists, whether from embarrassment or shame and indignation, it was hard to tell.
"Exactly. They keep talking about free love and how it can withstand the test of time, but that's all they are."
From this perspective, her childhood betrothal was quite well-known, and even though she wasn't in the city, her family was there to help look after her.
Wang Jianguo has now truly lost both his wife and his army.
"Perhaps there's some misunderstanding here."
Seeing that he was still being stubborn, Zhu Xiaomin rolled her eyes and waved the letter in her hand, saying:
"Any misunderstandings only prove that you have poor judgment. In fact, Jiang Zhiqing had good judgment. Breaking off the engagement with you back then was the right choice."
Ma Debi clicked his tongue twice.
"Alright, alright, they're already at the bottom of the pit, so don't kick them while they're down. See if they've written anything else, or if they've missed me?"
Zhu Xiaomin and Wang Guihua both rolled their eyes at him.
"What do you have in mind?"
"If Wanwan wants to think about anything, she'll think about me."
"And me too, Jiang Zhiqing promised to teach me how to cook."
Wang Guihua immediately raised her hand, earning a glare from Ma Debi.
"Make me salted pork and egg fried rice again, or don't blame me for getting physical!"
"You have absolutely no manners!"
Zhu Xiaomin finished speaking in an annoyed tone and put the letter away.
"Alright, I'm going to write back to Wanwan. You can tell me anything you want to say, and I'll write it in the letter."
"I have so much to say."
Ma Debi was the first to stand up immediately.
Wang Guihua was still thinking about having Jiang Wenwan teach her how to cook.
Zhu Xiaomin listened to them silently, then went inside to get paper and pen and began writing a letter.
Sitting outside, holding a multigrain steamed bun, Wang Jianguo looked thoughtfully in Zhu Xiaomin's direction.
The next day, Zhu Xiaoming went to the county to mail a letter. No sooner had she left than Wang Jianguo also left the educated youth settlement.
Upon arriving in the county, Wang Jianguo headed straight for the post office.
Sure enough, Zhu Xiaomin was seen coming out of the post office.
He waited, and only rushed inside after Zhu Xiaomin had been gone for quite a while.
"Comrade, comrade, did Comrade Zhu Xiaomin from our 18th Brigade's educated youth station just come to mail a letter? I have another letter here with it, could you please put it together with it?"
Oh dear, she forgot when she came, and I haven't caught up with her yet. I don't know where she went.
The postman who delivered the letter frowned, knowing that he was indeed from the 18th Brigade of educated youth settlements.
"You mean you should send your letter along with hers?"
But her stamps,”
"I have some here, I can put on an extra stamp."
"Alright then!"
When Jiang Wenwan received the letter, she saw a large envelope containing two letters.
The first letter was in Zhu Xiaomin's handwriting, the second letter?
It was written by Wang Jianguo; she felt she had nothing more to say to this person.
Jiang Wenwan was quite curious to hear that someone she had long since moved on from was now writing to her.
He glanced at Zhou Ye and Xiao Hei playing happily in the yard, then opened the letter and read it.
It really was written by Wang Jianguo.
"I know that Hu Qinghua and I hurt you in the past, but you and Hu Qinghua are sisters who grew up under the same roof."
I hope you won't be too hostile towards her.
I also heard that she was sent to a farm. Do you think you could help me transfer to the farm where she is?
We're in a relationship, and no matter what happens, I want to be there for her through it all.
Jiang Wenwan finished reading the letter speechlessly, and was truly speechless.
He casually tossed the letter aside and calculated the time.
This letter was written after my own letter had arrived.
But his second letter had not yet arrived.
Ma Debi hasn't left for the time being. The educated youth settlement is just about everyday family matters and working.
In the letter, Zhu Xiaomin wrote about the hardships of the harvest and her worries about hibernating through the winter.
"Zhou Meizi, I've hatched your goslings for you. There are seven in total."
Jiang Wenwan quickly put the letter away and went out to read it.
Then I saw Sister Xu holding a basket containing seven fluffy little goslings.
Don't be fooled by how cute and tender these little goslings are; they will all become the backbone of her goose army in the future.
"Sister-in-law, let me see! Wow! Such tiny ducklings!"
"They're geese! These geese are even more formidable than ducks!"
Jiang Wenwan couldn't help but adore herself at the group of fluffy little blondies.
"Not a single one has hatched yet? Your hatching success rate is just too high."
Sister-in-law Xu smiled,
"I just delivered two to Sister-in-law Dandan, and I have seven myself, so it's really quite a lot."
I've checked; there are four females and three males here.
Jiang Wenwan nodded and smiled.
But I still feel there aren't enough geese.
"Sister-in-law, do you know if there are any places in our county that sell goose eggs? I'm thinking that since we're raising them anyway, we might as well raise more."
Sister-in-law Xu shook her head.
"I don't usually go to the county, but the few times I've been there, I haven't seen any goose eggs for sale. Duck eggs, though, are available."
The most common one is eggs.
If you want to keep these, don't let too many into the yard, their poop smells awful.
Duck is good too.
Chickens were not even in her consideration. From a scientific point of view, the incidence of fowl plague is higher in chickens than in ducks.
Duck, um, Zhou Hei Ya?
Zhou Yunting happens to have the surname Zhou, hahaha.
"Let's raise these for now and talk about it next year!"
As the two talked, Jiang Wenwan began to learn how to feed the little gosling.
Zhou Ye and Xiao Hei were already playing around the goslings.
"Sister-in-law, let me help you raise the geese. By the way, will Xiao Hei eat them?"
Jiang Wenwan looked at the people who were lingering here again with amusement.
"The little black ones have muzzles on, so they won't eat them. Pet them gently, they're still small."
