The next morning, Huo Beian carried the broken bed board outside, intending to chop it up with an axe and burn it as firewood.
Then I'll buy a new bed board.
Qian Aihong from next door saw it.
Qian Aihong couldn't help but laugh, "Oh my, Battalion Commander Huo has such great stamina."
"Cough cough..."
Huo Beian coughed lightly, feeling embarrassed, and began chopping wood.
Song Ning finished washing up and came out to greet Qian Aihong.
Qian Aihong said with a smile, "Oh, Song Ning, you've been quite happy lately. Looking at your little Huo, he's got great stamina. You're truly blessed."
"Sister-in-law Ai Hong is joking."
Song Ning's ears turned red.
“I need to go to the post office,” Song Ning said to Huo Beian.
Huo Beian put down the axe. "Wife, I'll go with you. We can buy a new bed board."
He specially borrowed a tricycle and took Song Ning to the county town.
Song Ning went to the post office.
Song Ning packed a thick stack of drawings into a kraft paper bag, rubbing her fingers repeatedly along the seal.
"I hope the second volume will also be published smoothly!"
She muttered to herself.
This time, when she was mailing her letter, she saw that Aunt Sun was also mailing a letter.
When Aunt Sun saw Song Ning, she felt a little guilty.
She sent the letter and left immediately.
Song Ning wondered if this Granny Sun was hiding something from everyone.
No, she has to tell Wu Qianqian about this later.
We need to get Huo Beian to investigate this as soon as possible.
Song Ning came out and told Huo Beian about it.
“I just saw Aunt Sun mailing things back to her hometown. Why don’t you take this opportunity to check on it?”
Huo Beian nodded. "Okay, I happen to know someone at the post office. I'll go ask. Wait for me a moment."
Without any hesitation, Huo Beian went directly to the post office, found the relevant person in charge, and investigated Grandma Sun's remittance slip.
Then I received the receipt.
There were five or six in total.
Song Ning was stunned when she saw the receipt.
"My goodness, Aunt Sun has only been here for a few days and has already sent money so many times."
"And they're all the same person."
"When Company Commander Liu returns, we'll definitely have to give him a good talking to."
"Alright, honey, let's go buy a bed board."
The two of them went to the furniture market together and picked out a sturdy bed frame.
When buying the bed board, he even lay down to test it out of fear that it wasn't sturdy enough.
"Salesperson, I want the sturdiest one."
The sales clerk had a smile on her face.
"This is the sturdiest one. You can jump rope on it and it won't break."
She smiled and continued, "But young man, you still need to take it easy, otherwise even the sturdiest bed frame won't be able to withstand it."
Upon hearing this, the aunties around him immediately burst into laughter.
Everyone turned to look at Huo Beian.
Look at Huo Beian, then look at Song Ning.
Song Ning felt so embarrassed that she wanted to disappear into the ground.
Huo Beian was a little embarrassed and could only say, "Okay, this one will do."
I couldn't stand being stared at, so I quickly paid, grabbed the bed, and left.
Because they had to train new recruits in the afternoon, the two did not linger.
Huo Beian took Song Ning back to her family home, where he installed the bed frame before returning to his unit.
...
After Song Ning made the bed, she went directly to Company Commander Liu's house.
It just so happens that Granny Sun isn't home.
"Qianqian, how have you been lately? Has Aunt Sun stopped thinking about selling the children?"
She noticed that Qianqian looked much better, and then she looked at the child, who was chubby and adorable.
"If she dares to do it again, I'll fight her to the death! I've really had enough, and I don't want to do another day of this postpartum period."
For Wu Qianqian, this was not a proper postpartum period, it was a nightmare.
Her mother-in-law deliberately made things difficult for her while she was in postpartum confinement.
"Persistence is victory. By the way, Qianqian, does your husband have any other relatives or friends in his hometown? I met Aunt Sun who was sending things back home."
Wu Qianqian was very surprised.
"She doesn't have many relatives in her hometown, so who can she send letters to?"
"Yes, I also found it strange at the time, and I saw that there was money, meat coupons, and food coupons. This happened several times, and I didn't know who they were mailing them to."
"What? Mail money and tickets?"
Wu Qianqian was immediately furious. "No wonder she hasn't been willing to buy meat and eggs lately. It turns out she's been secretly sending them to the countryside."
Song Ning nodded. "I've already asked Huo Beian to check. Here are the receipts. Give them to Company Commander Liu when he returns."
Holding the mail receipts, Wu Qianqian fell into deep thought.
On the other side.
Grandma Sun was on her way back.
When I passed by Li Xiaoyue’s house, I saw Li Xiaoyue’s youngest son, Zhang Ermao, playing in the yard, while Li Xiaoyue was cooking inside the house.
A wicked thought suddenly came to her mind.
After saying that, Aunt Sun immediately picked up Zhang Ermao, covered his mouth, and ran towards Song Ning's house.
Then she knocked Zhang Ermao unconscious and threw him into Song Ning's woodshed.
Because Song Ning hadn't locked the door, she easily got in.
"Hmph, Song Ning, you've been meddling in my business and ruining things. This time, let's see how you get away with this."
After finishing all this, Grandma Sun slowly walked home.
Li Xiaoyue finished cooking and, without even untying her apron, went out into the yard and called out.
"Er Mao, dinner's ready."
It turned out that Er Mao was missing.
"Er Mao? Er Mao?"
Li Xiaoyue immediately thought of Aunt Sun, guessing that she had taken the child away.
