Zhu Guihua couldn't sleep well because of these two secrets, so she didn't want Zhou Shixun to come back at all.
Zhou Changyun didn't think that anyone had discovered his rape. Seeing Zhu Guihua fidgeting, he comforted her, "Don't let your imagination run wild. Besides, my second brother has already married. He definitely didn't come back for Luo Caixia."
Speaking of Luo Caixia, he was also unwilling to give in. After sleeping with her that time, he didn't react when he saw Luo Caixia coming back, and he still went to work on time. Later, he looked for an opportunity to find Luo Caixia again, but he didn't expect that she had a knife hidden on her body and almost took his life.
So from then on, he gave up the idea of looking for Luo Caixia.
After hearing what her youngest son said, Zhu Guihua not only did not feel relieved, but she felt even more upset. What if Zhou Shixun discovered her life experience?
Would that mean I would cut off ties with my family and never send them a penny again?
Zhou Mancang was much calmer: "Don't overthink it. Everyone is back. Kill the chicken tomorrow morning and borrow some oil to make some fried cakes for lunch."
Zhu Guihua was unhappy when she heard this: "They are just two hens. We were counting on them to lay eggs and make money. What will we get in exchange after we kill them?"
Zhou Mancang coughed hard and cursed in a low voice: "You are such a shallow-minded person. This is the first time that the second son brings his new wife back. If you cook too shabby, will the second son be dissatisfied?"
As he spoke he began to cough with great effort, and it seemed as if he was unable to breathe. Zhu Guihua was so frightened that she quickly climbed onto the kang and patted his back.
Sheng An Ning washed her feet and went to the yard to get some water. She could hear Zhou Mancang coughing violently. She went back to the house and whispered to Zhou Shixun, "Is your father good to you?"
Zhou Shixun was stunned for a moment: "General, what's wrong?"
Sheng An Ning quickly shook her head: "It's okay, just asking casually."
Seeing that Zhou Mancang looked honest and kind, if it was good for Zhou Shixun, she could help cure his cough, but if not, forget it.
But judging from Zhou Shixun's tone, it shouldn't be a good thing.
After wiping his hands, he stood by the kang and looked at Zhou Shixun: "Lie down and take off your clothes. I'll take a look at your wound. Hurry up, I'm almost frozen to death."
Zhou Shixun couldn't hesitate any longer, so he took off his shirt and lay down. The gauze wrapped around his abdomen was already faintly red.
Sheng Anning frowned: "It's all bleeding, don't you feel any pain?"
As he spoke, he began to untie the gauze, slowly unwrapping it circle by circle. The already healed wound split slightly and the flesh was exposed.
Sheng An Ning poked around the wound: "It doesn't hurt? You can't move around tomorrow."
Zhou Shixun shook his head and pursed his lips. The slightly cool fingertips poked his skin, which made him feel like a fire was running through his body, and he tensed up unconsciously.
Sheng Anning checked the wound, went over to get some iodine and anti-inflammatory drugs, disinfected the area around the wound, sprinkled anti-inflammatory powder on it, and then bandaged it skillfully.
Zhou Shixun was lying flat on his back. Although he couldn't see Sheng Anning's movements, he could feel that she was very skilled at this, even more skilled than the nurses who changed his dressings every time.
If you think about the fact that this Sheng An Ning is no longer Sheng An Ning, everything can be easily explained.
But who is she?
While she was distracted, Sheng An Ning had already bandaged the wound: "Okay, you must not move around tomorrow. It's best to rest at home for two days."
Zhou Shixun hummed obediently: "Okay."
Sheng An Ning was about to say that it was time to make the bed and go to sleep, when someone outside the door called Zhou Shixun, "Second brother, are you asleep?"
Judging from the voice, it was Zhou Changlin, the eldest son of the Zhou family.
Zhou Shixun responded, sat up and started to put on his clothes.
Sheng An Ning was watching from the side. She had broad shoulders and a thin waist. Her skin was a bit dark, but her muscle lines were very smooth and she looked full of strength.
I knew before that Zhou Shixun had a good figure, but because he was a patient, I didn't think about it too much. When I took off his clothes just now, I was thinking about his wounds, so I didn't bother to take a closer look.
It looks really good now.
Zhou Shixun's face was hot, and he put on his clothes under Sheng Anning's unconcealed gaze: "Brother is looking for me, I'll go out and take a look, you go to sleep first."
Sheng An Ning was just feeling relaxed, and after Zhou Shixun left, she climbed onto the kang, got a quilt and spread it out, took off her sweater and trousers, and got in wearing her long-sleeved shirt and trousers.
The quilt was cold because no one had used it for a long time. I could only curl up shivering and fall asleep after thinking about random things for a while.
…
Zhou Changlin called Zhou Shixun to his room: "Your sister-in-law has returned to her parents' home with her three children. Her nephew is getting married. Come to my room and sit for a while."
Zhou Shixun sat down on the kang and looked at the tidy house: "Are you guys doing well?"
Zhou Changlin chuckled, "It's fine. The past two years have been much better than the previous years. At least we can have enough food to eat now. It's very good. How about you? I heard that you will stay in Longbei City in the future?"
Zhou Shixun nodded: "It should be about the same."
Zhou Changlin nodded repeatedly: "That's good, that's good, I'll be a city dweller in the future, and I don't have to go back to our mountain village to farm."
As he spoke, he took out a cloth bag filled with tobacco leaves and straw paper, tore off a small strip and handed it to Zhou Shixun: "Roll a cigarette?"
Zhou Shixun shook his head: "No, I'm not good at this."
Zhou Changlin rolled up his book, as if thinking about something. After a long while, he asked, "Why did you suddenly get married? Did you do something wrong? Or something else? You and Caixia were doing fine, so why did you leave her?"
Zhou Shixun frowned: "Caixia and I have never gotten along well."
Zhou Changlin was surprised: "Why didn't you get better? Three years ago, when you were injured, Caixia went to take care of you for more than half a month, carrying urine and urinating. She was thinner when she came back."
Zhou Shixun frowned and said nothing, thinking back to when they were in the town noodle shop, after Sheng An Ning left, Luo Caixia said with red eyes: "Axun, I'm not happy anymore, you must be happy."
He just couldn't understand one thing: why did everyone think there was something going on between him and Luo Caixia?
When he was at the border, everyone knew that he had a girlfriend. When he was in his new unit, those people also knew that he had a girlfriend in his hometown.
He had never been good at explaining things, and there was no way to explain this.
Seeing that Zhou Shixun didn't say anything, Zhou Changlin thought he was in the wrong, so he continued, "Since you are already married, let's not talk about Caixia's matter. However, the villagers are very dissatisfied with you. They all think you are Chen Shimei. If the villagers see you say something tomorrow, don't take it to heart."
Zhou Shixun still didn't say a word. He sat in silence for a while, listening to Zhou Changlin talk about the years and harvests in the past two years. Seeing that it was getting late, he went back to the house.
Sheng Anning had already fallen asleep in the room, curled up in a ball because she was afraid of the cold.
Zhou Shixun stood by the kang and watched for a while before he quietly made the bed, turned off the lights, and lay down gently beside Sheng An Ning.
For the first time, I slept in the same bed with a girl.
