Chapter 12 Jiang Wanwan wakes up
Thinking about how she was pressed on the kang to endure his brute force last night, Jiang Wanwan's face was burning. She didn't know where this guy learned this trick from. She counted it and knew exactly how shallow and deep it was.
He deliberately bullied her until she cried, then watched her tears under the kerosene lamp and listened to her begging for mercy.
Jiang Wanwan hurriedly put on her clothes. She didn't dare to think too much, for fear of dying of shame on the bed.
After getting dressed, Jiang Wanwan opened the door to look for Shen Xingjiang. As soon as she stepped out of the door, two childish voices came from the side.
"Mom, Fourth Aunt is out."
"Aunt Four is so pretty, her face is like a flower. When Guoguo grows up, he will be as beautiful as Aunt Four."
Jiang Wanwan looked over and saw Xu Lan sitting under the eaves altering clothes. She was holding clothes in her hands, and next to her was a dustpan filled with flattened yellow cotton. Two children who looked exactly the same were squatting beside her, playing with the cotton with their little hands.
Xu Lan saw Jiang Wanwan had woken up and greeted her with a smile: "Old Fourth's, I've got lunch warmed up in the pot for you, go and have some."
Sui Sui and Guo Guo are twins born to Xu Lan. They are three years old this year. Sui Sui is the older brother and Guo Guo is the younger sister.
Guoguo had two small braids, a round head, and a chubby face. She was very cute. She looked at Jiang Wanwan and couldn't help drooling.
Jiang Wanwan couldn't help laughing as she walked over and touched their chubby faces.
“Sister-in-law, have you seen Shen Xingjiang?”
Xu Lan didn't think much about the fact that Jiang Wanwan knew her, thinking that it was Shen Xingjiang who told her, but she didn't know that Jiang Wanwan liked Xu Lan very much in her previous life.
My sister-in-law is gentle and reasonable, and she is always tolerant even of those with bad tempers.
Xu Lan replied: "He went to join the army in Xinjiang. He said he would leave half of his earnings to you so that you can buy good food and clothes."
Jiang Wanwan was confused for a moment: "When did he leave?"
In his previous life, Jiang Lian said that Shen Xingjiang was promoted to regiment commander two years after joining the army. He was swift and decisive, and ruthless. Later, for some unknown reason, he switched to business, and in just a few years, he became the king of the city.
She didn't expect that Shen Xingjiang would join the army so early in this life. In the previous life, Shen Xingjiang joined the army after she ran away.
It seems that her rebirth has affected many things. The only thing that remains unchanged is that Shen Xingjiang is still moving forward along the glorious path of his previous life.
I’m not sure... Will she be lucky enough to be the wife of a military commander or the wife of a president in this life?
When this thought came to her mind, Jiang Wanwan slapped her face.
Jiang Wanwan, wake up!
You have influenced many things after your rebirth, but not everyone can be the wife of the commander-in-chief or the wife of the president!
Eh…
Although she had been married to him for only one day, Jiang Wanwan felt empty inside when she learned that he had gone out. She missed the smell of his body, his slender waist and his unrestrained strength.
She was very tired at night, but she didn't like being alone in the empty room.
Seeing that Jiang Wanwan was in a state of panic, Xu Lan sighed and comforted her.
"He left this morning. Don't feel bad. He went out to make money because he cared about you and wanted to lead a good life with you. When the fourth brother does well in the army, you can go with him and you two can spend every day together."
As a woman, Xu Lan could empathize with Jiang Wanwan. If her father's Dazhu went out and she couldn't see him for ten days or half a month, she would feel uncomfortable.
Jiang Wanwan didn't want to reveal too much of her emotions in front of Xu Lan: "Thank you, sister-in-law."
Xu Lan felt sorry for her when she saw that her hands were so skinny that there was no flesh on them. She said, "Go eat quickly. Don't starve yourself."
Jiang Wanwan nodded and went to the kitchen to eat.
There were steamed buns and cabbage soup hot in the pot. My sister-in-law was a good cook. The cabbage soup was delicious, and the potatoes were soft and full of the flavor of the cabbage. She ate half a bowl.
After dinner, Jiang Wanwan took out the candies and peach cakes that she had bought in the county town a few days ago, and gave one portion each to her grandparents, the first and second wives, and her father-in-law.
Old Lady Shen praised her for her filial piety, Shen Yejun was grinning from ear to ear, Suo Suo and Guo Guo from the eldest room were munching on peach cakes and thanked her in a baby voice, the two children hugged her legs and were affectionate with her, and Jiang Wanwan felt much less depressed and homesick as they kept waiting for her.
I only have two rooms, and the things I received were mediocre.
According to the rules of the Shen family, all the daughters-in-law have to work. The first wife cooks breakfast and the second wife cooks lunch. Before Jiang Wanwan got married, dinner was cooked by all the women in the family. When she came, dinner fell on her head.
Jiang Wanwan can’t cook, but luckily Xu Lan comes to help. She makes sorghum pancakes and wild vegetable soup in the evening.
There are more than a dozen people in the Shen family. The men eat at the kang table, and the women eat at the floor table.
When they sat down to eat, Liu Yeju looked at Jiang Wanwan with an unfriendly and critical gaze.
Jiang Wanwan was too lazy to pay attention to her.
Liu Yeju deliberately pretended that she couldn't eat when she saw Jiang Wanwan.
She did it on purpose for everyone to see, thinking that later when someone asked her why she didn't eat, she would express her unhappiness and let everyone comfort her.
But no one cared about her halfway through the meal.
Finally, someone spoke.
"Wanwan, try this mushroom. I picked some small gray mushrooms from the mountains when it rained a lot in the summer and dried them. This mushroom is the freshest and tenderest. Eat more."
Xu Lan noticed that Jiang Wanwan ate slowly and could only take a few bites of a bowl of food. So, under the pretext of recommending the small gray mushrooms, she picked up a lot of food for Jiang Wanwan, filling up Jiang Wanwan's bowl.
“Bang!”
Liu Yeju slammed her chopsticks on the table: "That's enough, is it fun for two of you to bully me?"
Jiang Wanwan ate the mushroom slowly, and after a few bites she realized something was wrong: "Are you talking about me?"
Liu Yeju sneered: "Why are you asking when you already know the answer?"
Jiang Wanwan looked so innocent: "My sister-in-law and I were eating normally, how did we bully you? What happened? Did I chew your tongue while eating?"
This person must be sick.
Xu Lan also felt that Liu Yeju's words were unreasonable: "Don't wrongly accuse people."
Liu Yeju laughed angrily: "Did I wrong you?"
She pointed two stubby fingers at her eyes: "I saw you pick up food for Jiang Wanwan with my own eyes. I didn't eat much today, why didn't you pick up food for me?"
"And you, Jiang Wanwan." After Liu Yeju finished talking about Xu Lan, she looked at Jiang Wanwan with her vicious eyes, "Give two portions of peach cakes and one portion of candy to the first room, and give two portions of peach cakes and one portion of candy to our second room."
Jiang Wanwan raised her eyebrows: "Yes, is there a problem?"
"I gave you the same amount of things, not less, but you put on a sad face. Could it be that I am sorry for you?"
