Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was the day when Song Shuxi and Wei Jianguo invited everyone to dinner.
The couple got up early, each riding a bicycle, and went to the village below. There are several villages near the army. The sisters-in-law in the compound would go to the coastal villages to exchange for seafood, and go to the slightly farther villages to exchange for meat and eggs.
The village that Wei Jianguo took Song Shuqian to was a well-known wealthy village.
The two men went straight to the village chief and explained their purpose.
With the help of the village chief, I exchanged for "two sea bass, two pounds of fresh shrimp, a chicken, 100 eggs, two chicks, dozens of pounds of dried seafood, and some vegetables and fruits." In short, it was a great harvest.
It was the first time for Song Shuqian to experience this kind of bartering and she found it very novel.
They used the defective cloth they had bought in Jinling before.
The purchasing power of cloth was really strong at this time. Song Shuqian planned to establish good relationships with the people at the supply and marketing cooperative or textile factory here so that she could buy more cloth and store it when she had the chance.
It was only later when she came with her sisters-in-law to exchange things that she realized that people also accepted money in exchange.
It’s just that Wei Jianguo has a special status and he’s worried about being criticized.
After exchanging their things, they walked back.
Wei Jianguo asked with amusement, "Are you tired? Will you come again in the future?"
It turned out that today Song Shuxi thought it was interesting to change things and insisted on coming along.
Song Shuxi snorted coldly, "Come again next time. I have made an appointment with the village chief's aunt, and she will leave us dried abalone, dried sea cucumber, dried shrimp and snail meat. Tiantian said these things are good for the body."
Wei Jianguo agreed with a smile, "If you can't come alone, it's better for you to come with me. The road is long and there is a dangerous section in the middle. It's not safe for you to come out alone."
Of course Song Shuqian knew what she looked like.
A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. She has always understood this truth.
Today went smoothly. The dinner party was in the evening, so the two of us were not in a hurry and walked back slowly.
When passing by a mountain, Song Shuqian heard a humming sound.
I was so scared that my hair stood on end.
"Founding of a Nation"
Wei Jianguo made a hushing gesture, carried Song Shuxi to a big tree, made sure she was safe, and quietly moved towards the source of the sound.
What I saw was a little black puppy, completely black without a single stray hair on its body.
Bring the dog over and show it to Song Shuqian.
Wei Jianguo thinks the dog can be handed over to the military dog base. They are currently testing which dog breed is more suitable to be a military dog.
Once sent there, this little thing will be well taken care of.
Song Shuxi was attracted to the little puppy at first sight. In her previous life, she wanted to raise a puppy, but she had never been able to do so due to various rules.
Holding the puppy in her arms, Song Shuxi felt that the puppy was shaking all the time.
Song Shuxi emptied her messenger bag and piled all the money, bills, handkerchiefs... all kinds of things into Wei Jianguo's backpack.
Then put the puppy into the backpack.
Feeling that it was not warm enough, Song Shuxi took off her coat and wrapped it around the puppy. He was stopped by Wei Jianguo.
Song Shuqian needed help from someone, so her attitude was particularly good. She agreed to whatever Wei Jianguo said without any objection.
Wei Jianguo didn't say anything either, just wanted to see when Song Shuqian couldn't hold back anymore. Less than two minutes later, Song Shuxi asked tentatively, "Jianguo, what do you think we should do with this little puppy in the future? It's so small."
Wei Jianguo teased her deliberately, "The military dog base will take good care of it. If it fails the selection, we will find a good home for it."
Song Shuxi... Is it possible that I am that good person?
"It's still a baby, how can it be trained? Why don't we let it live in our house first?"
Wei Jianguo...my wife is so tactful. I never see her act like this before.
Unable to bear Song Shuqian's pitiful eyes staring at him, Wei Jianguo decided to quit while he was ahead.
"If you like him, just keep him. I'm going on a mission, so let him stay with you."
Song Shuxi jumped for joy.
This has been her wish for two lifetimes.
Finally I can have a dog of my own.
Even though it is black, it still can't stop Song Shuxi from liking it.
The two returned to the family compound, and Wei Jianguo took the puppy to register. This is how it is in the family compound. If you bring back any living things, you must report it promptly, and staff will come to check on you from time to time.
Song Shuqian made a cup of milk powder for the puppy and fed it little by little with a spoon.
Wei Jianguo's eyelids twitched when he saw this. His wife gave the milk powder, which even people couldn't drink, to the dog.
"Wife, I know you are worried about this little thing, but you can't feed it milk powder or malted milk anymore. If you feed these precious things to animals, you will probably be reported."
"Those are all my things."
"Yes, they are all yours. You can feed them quietly in a place where no one can see, but you must not let anyone see."
Song Shuqian is a person who listens to advice, and she has been very careful since then.
"Are you hungry? I'll go cook you a bowl of noodles." Seeing that his wife had listened to him, Wei Jianguo didn't continue the previous topic.
"I'm hungry. I want an extra poached egg."
"no problem".
It’s strange to say, Song Shuxi had everything she needed in her previous life, but she was not happy. Even though I am so poor in this life, I am actually very happy.
She has changed a lot now, a bit like Song Shuxi when her mother was alive.
The couple had a simple bowl of noodles and began to prepare for today's dinner.
Tian Tiantian and Sister Ding came early to help.
Looking at the things in the kitchen, Sister Ding exclaimed that it was a sin. She had a hard life and valued food very much.
Sister Ding didn't bother to be polite with Song Shu. She said directly, "Sister, I don't treat you as an outsider. We should understand each other when we live together. You care about me and I care about you. Only then can we live together.

It's not easy for Captain Wei to earn money to support his family. You should think more about him. The smell of meat can be smelled in your house every day recently. If this continues, you won’t be able to survive.”
Song Shuqian knew that Sister Ding was doing this for her own good and that she treated her like her own child. But I felt a little unhappy in my heart, thinking that their relationship was not good enough for them to interfere in each other's family affairs.
This is also an influence from the previous life.
It was the same in her previous life. Everyone came to persuade her to be tolerant and understanding. What do you mean by ruler-rule, subject-subject, father-father, son-son? Alas, it was the royal family who wronged her first.
The royal family destroyed her family and killed her mother, so she was willing to become the knife used by various forces to overthrow the royal family.
If her body would allow it, she would like to put on armor and go into battle herself to kill the dog emperor.
Let her understand, what the hell!
This life has been earned. If you have to live in frustration, you might as well die.
This is what he thought in his mind, but what he said out loud was, "Jianguo has been in the army for so many years, and he has troubled everyone to take care of him, and he has also eaten at other people's homes. I thought I would take this opportunity to thank everyone, and also give my comrades some rewards. It will only be this time."
Tian Tiantian looked at the pile of dishes and didn't know where to start. "What dish does Shu Xi want to make?"
Song Shuqian told her about the menu she and Wei Jianguo had prepared, and said with a smile, "That's it. I'm just worried that there won't be enough food. Soldiers like them can really eat a lot. They eat more in one meal than I do in a whole day. If there isn't enough food, I'll make a fool of myself."
Mrs. Ding was also all smiles after hearing this, "That's enough, that's enough to eat."
Tian Tiantian looked at these things and got an idea. "My family is hosting a party next weekend and we will also follow this standard. Shuxi, you have to accompany me to go shopping."
"No problem, leave it to me."
