Chapter 65



Xia Yuying had a rare chance to rest today, so she gathered with several sisters-in-law in the yard of Chen Erni's house.

As she was choosing the dishes, she said: "Women in the new era have to rely on themselves. They can't just think about living off their husbands. Finding a job is the only way to rely on yourself. Even if you can't find a stable job, at least you can do some manual labor. Anyway, I don't agree with women being lazy and expecting men to support them."

Chen Erni looked at her without saying anything, but she was actually struggling a little bit.

Xia Yuying was very nice to her and always gave her extra vegetables when she got food from the cafeteria. Now that she no longer got food from the cafeteria, she would secretly give her some leftover cabbage leaves, onions, ginger, garlic, etc.

But Yu Li saved her child's life last time.

After thinking it over, Chen Erni nodded in agreement with Xia Yuying: "Yes, we girls cannot be lazy and gluttonous. Whose girls don't take care of children, do housework, and go to work? Even if they don't go to work, they have to make firewood boxes at home, at least to earn enough money to buy salt.

The wife of Captain Lu usually stays at home and only goes to the cafeteria for meals. She can't really rely on her beauty to be supported by a man, right?"

Xia Yuying said softly, "Maybe it's because the betrothal gift is too much? But if the betrothal gift is too much, Sun's wife was in urgent need of money a while ago and couldn't borrow money from anywhere, and I didn't see the couple lend a hand to help. If it were me, I would definitely lend her money."

Sun Caomiao, the wife of the Second Company Commander, looked up at Xia Yuying and indeed felt uneasy as well.

A few days ago, her kitchen burned down, and she was anxious to borrow money to buy and repair the kitchen, but couldn't borrow money anywhere. She knocked on Lu Guanshan's door, but Yu Li acted as if she didn't hear her and didn't come out.

Thinking of this, Sun Caomiao felt a little frustrated and said in a gloomy tone, "She hooked up with the head of the women's department. Everyone goes to her house to see the head of the women's department. Does she care about other people? Ha! If she doesn't want to lend it, then don't lend it! Who cares!"

Xia Yuying looked at her sister-in-law who also lived nearby and said, "Sister-in-law Liu, your instructor Gong was in the same company with Battalion Commander Lu. They have such a good relationship. Don't you have any contact with each other?"

Liu Yuzhen got angry when she mentioned this: "Lao Gong went to their house for two meals a while ago, and when he came back he said that the food I cooked was not tasty, and that Comrade Xiao Yu of the 그 family was a good cook! How could I have the nerve to go? Captain Lu of the 그 family didn't even invite me!"

Xia Yuying quickly comforted her: "Sister-in-law, don't be angry, come to my house for dinner next time! Some people may look down on people like us, but I am definitely not that kind of person. We should unite and help each other!"

Sun Caomiao, the wife of the Second Company Commander, said coldly, "Comrade Xia, why don't you lend me some money? You just got married, right? How much is the betrothal gift? It should be at least fifty or sixty, right?"

Xia Yuying felt uneasy when she thought about the betrothal gift, but she still smiled and said, "Guohua gave me 160 yuan as a betrothal gift, but I thought that my mother-in-law was in poor health and the family needed money, so I gave the money to my mother-in-law. When I get pregnant, she will definitely give it to me.

Sister-in-law Sun, why don’t you ask Captain Lu to borrow money first? I think they are both good people and will definitely not refuse. I just don’t know how much their betrothal gift is.”

Sun Caomiao's eyes moved. Her boyfriend was invited. He would go to the wedding in a few days. Maybe he could really borrow some money from Yu Li for the betrothal gift!

Liu Yuzhen thought of her boyfriend blaming her because of Yu Li, so she also said: "When you go to help, just ask directly. What's the problem? Isn't it just borrowing and not returning it?"

After whispering for several months, Chen Erni's face changed a little, she pursed her lips and said nothing.

Xia Yuying smiled beside them, and when the crowd dispersed, she chased after them and said to Liu Yuzhen, "Sister-in-law, Instructor Gong really shouldn't have criticized you because of Yu Li. In fact, how can Yu Li compare to you? You can endure hardships, but she only knows how to enjoy herself. It's her who ruined the atmosphere of our family compound! I think those men went to the Lu family for dinner. It wasn't Captain Lu who invited them. It was Yu Li who deliberately seduced them... The men stationed here are all simple, so how can we tell what she is thinking?"

Liu Yuzhen's eyes were irritated by these words!

"How dare she! She already has a boyfriend, and she still wants to seduce another man?"

Xia Yuying sighed: "Some women just like this, enjoying the attention of men chasing after them! I guess it's not just your husband who praises her, the other sisters-in-law must be unhappy too! If this continues, I don't know what tragedy will happen to the family! But sister-in-law, I'm saying this for your own good, you must not sell me out, I love you too!"

Liu Yuzhen was so angry that she was confused and said angrily: "How could I tell anyone else! This matter is not your fault, it is Captain Lu's love affair! Let her go, I will stab her when she gets married!"

After separating from Liu Yuzhen, Xia Yuying felt so good!

She had planned everything out to make Yu Li's wedding a complete mess.

She then held a lively and joyful wedding, creating an image of a loving couple with Wu Guohua.

Wouldn't it be like a fish in water in the family compound in the future?

She has a very good grasp of interpersonal relationships.

When Wu Guohua got off work, he saw Xia Yuying humming a song and doing housework, which was a rare occasion.

He took one look at the noodles on the table and felt a little nauseous.

꽭꽭 eat noodles, 꽭꽭 eat noodles, I’ve had enough!

But he couldn't say.

What's more, Xia Yuying couldn't let her know that he had heard many people say that Yu Li's cooking was delicious and he wanted to try it again after eating it once.

I could only eat the noodles while holding back my nausea.

But I didn't expect Xia Yuying to say, "Guohua, Yu Li and his friends have had their wedding, why don't we also have one here? At least let all the comrades know that we are married."

Wu Guohua frowned, and the noodles in his mouth felt even more bland: "What should we do? We have no money now. I have given all my salary for the past few months to Lu Guanshan. You have only been working for a few days? Why don't we just not have the wedding? We have already had one in our hometown anyway."

Xia Yuying immediately became unhappy: "Why can Yu Li and the others do it, but we can't? How will others look at you and me then? Won't Yu Li laugh at us behind our backs? No, why don't you go borrow some money to hold the wedding?"

You are the squad leader now, after all. Find some unmarried young people among you. They must have savings. Lend us their money first."

Wu Guohua suddenly put down his chopsticks and looked at her seriously.

"Xia Yuying, I've changed from a company commander to a squad leader. I don't want my people to look down on me anymore, do you understand? I know better than you what the backgrounds of my subordinates are. Few of them have a good family life. Some of them rely on saving their wages to marry a wife, and some rely on sending their wages back home to support their families. You want me to borrow their wages? I'm not that thick-skinned!"

When Xia Yuying saw him suddenly teaching her a lesson, she also put down her chopsticks!

"You mean I'm shameless? You also know that they will save their salary to marry a wife! What about your salary? The betrothal gift you gave me was a piece of paper! Don't you know what happened at our wedding?

The food is so shabby! You are being laughed at! Your sister was arrested for cheating! I will only get married once in my life, don’t I feel ashamed? ! "

Wu Guohua picked up the bowl and dropped it without swearing.

The older sister next door started to curse: "Throw it, throw it, throw it! Throw it! Is your father dead? Why are you throwing pots?"

Wu Guohua stood up and walked away, Xia Yuying said firmly: "I don't care what you do! Anyway, I will definitely get this wine! And it will be hot and noisy and glorious!"

She must not be worse than Yu Li!

All her life she has done is to step on Yu Li under her feet!

The two had a cold war for a few years, and in the blink of an eye, it was the day when Yu Li and Lu Guanshan got married.
