Chapter 69: Supporting Xu Muzhou's Ideals
The land had to be turned over before planting vegetables, and Xu Muzhou did not let Xiao Qingru and her mother do heavy work.
"There is only one set of tools, Mom. You, Qingru, go sit over there and help sow the seeds later."
Mother Xiao thought that her son-in-law was responsible for plowing the land, her daughter was responsible for sowing the seeds, and she was responsible for watering the fields. But now her son-in-law doesn't let them do anything. She is happy and loves Xu Muzhou very much.
"You are already tired enough from training. You don't have to take on all the work. We are a family. We should work together."
"I have been training a lot and am in good physical condition, so this is nothing."
Xu Muzhou picked up the hoe and started working. "Mom, please go and dig some motherwort to make dumplings for dinner."
Xiao's mother knew that her son-in-law wanted to separate them and work alone.
He said helplessly: "Then I'll leave this place to you. Come home to eat in the evening, and don't cook over there."
"Okay, then we'll go home for dinner tonight."
"Your father insisted that young people don't like living with their elders, otherwise I would like you to go home to eat and live every day."
The two of them settled the matter in a few words. Xiao Qingru didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Why didn't anyone ask for my opinion?"
Xiao's mother glared at her and said, "Don't be ungrateful for what you have."
Xiao Qingru: “…”
What does it mean to be unaware of the blessings you have?
Now that she has a son-in-law, her status as a concubine has declined?
He glanced at Xu Muzhou resentfully, his eyes full of accusation, and then took a bamboo basket and went to dig wild vegetables.
Xu Muzhou touched the tip of his nose. How cute.
A low laugh escaped his lips, and he swung the hoe even more vigorously.
Finish the work quickly so that you can go home and spend time with your wife.
Many people saw this scene and praised Xu Muzhou as a good man. Xiao Qingru really found the right person this time!
Apart from anything else, just this thoughtfulness alone is enough to make other men far better!
"Some people really have a good life. They can be reborn and choose men. They come to the world to enjoy happiness."
"The hardship Xiao Qingru has experienced in her life is probably the same as when she was in love with Jiang Chuan."
"Who says no?"
“…”
One acre of land was not more or less. If it was just Xiao Qingru, it might take only a day to finish the work. But because of Xu Muzhou, it was finished in half a day.
The two went home to change and wash, and then went back to her parents' home.
Xiao Huaishu had not returned from his mission yet. Born in a military family, Xiao Qingru had already gotten used to not seeing her father and brother often.
Everyone has their own responsibilities and she understands the particularity of their work.
It's just that every time I don't see anyone, I still feel very worried.
This may be the daily life of every soldier's family, making them proud but also worried.
Thinking that she would have to miss Xu Muzhou more in the future, Xiao Qingru suddenly felt a little emotional. It turned out that no one's life was always smooth.
But no matter what, she will uphold Xu Muzhou's ideals.
Like he supported her.
Xu Muzhou was an eagle soaring in the sky. She would not ask him to abandon his wildness and stay in a safe and comfortable nest just because he wanted to get married.
For people with ideals, this is very cruel.
She hoped that her love could give Xu Muzhou the strength to move forward bravely rather than become a stumbling block for him.
"Wife, help me roll up my sleeves."
Xiao Qingru immediately took two steps forward and rolled up Xu Muzhou's sleeves to his elbows, revealing his strong and powerful muscles.
"I'm going to eat noodles. Go talk to mom outside. I'll show you when we get home."
Being caught, Xiao Qingru's face flushed and she chuckled, "Xu Muzhou!"
“What instructions does the leader have?”
Facing his teasing look, Xiao Qingru raised her chin and said, "It's nothing to see. Isn't it a humanoid version of the word Tai?"
Xu Muzhou didn't react at first. He was stunned for two seconds and was about to grab the man to let her know that he was not just that simple.
Unfortunately, she was a step late, and Miss 께 slipped away like a rabbit.
You can run away, but you can't run away from the temple. Go home and close the door. You will have time to prove yourself.
Xiao Qingru looked back at the kitchen and couldn't help laughing out loud.
Isn't it more shameless?
She can do the same!
"What are you dawdling about for? Come and learn needlework."
"I'm coming."
Xiao Qingru can knit sweaters, but she is not good at sewing and mending.
In the past, her mother always helped her with everything. Now that she is married and has moved out to live independently, she can no longer rely on her mother for everything as before.
"Look at Ren Xu, he's very hardworking. You should do more work for him and not let him do everything alone."
"If you praise him again, his tail will be flying."
"I'm speaking the truth."
Although Xiao's mother has always lived in the family compound, she has met many people.
When other sons-in-law go to their father-in-law's house, they basically just stretch out their hands for clothes and open their mouths for food. Few people cook like me.
Sure enough, throwing away unworthy people will help you meet the right person.
If not for Qingru realizing it in time, he would probably still be worried about Jiang.
Xiao Qingru learned very seriously and planned to make Xu Muzhou's socks and other things by herself in the future.
When Xiao's father returned home, he saw his son-in-law making dumplings in the kitchen. He washed his hands and went in to help.
When men get together, they talk about nothing but work. In the past, Mr. Xiao was very optimistic about Xu Muzhou, and now that this man has become his son-in-law, he naturally has to take better care of him.
"There is an opportunity to study in Beijing now. If you have an idea, you can apply to your direct leader."
There is always someone better than you. You can't be complacent, otherwise you will be eliminated sooner or later.
Regardless of his role as a leader or as a father-in-law, Mr. Xiao wanted him to go.
But it had only been a few months since they left, and they were newlyweds, so this was quite difficult.
"Dad, I want to go, but I have to discuss it with Qingru first."
Father Xiao's eyes flashed with a smile, "Are you worried that she won't agree?"
"No." Xu Muzhou shook his head, "Qingru will agree."
It's just that going away from home right after getting married, and being away for several months at a time, is bound to make people feel depressed.
This kind of situation will happen frequently in the future, so he needs to have a good talk with his wife and give her enough sense of security.
Let her know that even if they are not together, he is always thinking of her.
Xu Muzhou wants to give Xiao Qingru a better life. If she doesn't work hard now, when will she be able to succeed?
"Qingru grew up in a military region and was educated to serve the people while fighting for her ideals. She will support you."
Xu Muzhou nodded, "But I still need to discuss it with her."
They are married now, so they should discuss everything together.
He can't rely on his wife to support him in pursuing his ideals without telling her anything.
Father Xiao was very satisfied with Xu Muzhou's attitude.
As a man, if he can't even handle his family relationships, there is only one word to describe him as a loser when he wants to accomplish something big.
Suspense!
