Maybe it’s because it’s close to the foot of the mountain and in the north, so winter comes early, and it came even earlier this year.
This is also Zhou Chaoyang's first year spending the winter here: "I don't know, how could it snow so early? The cabbages haven't been harvested yet, and the leaves on the trees haven't fallen yet. It's really strange. Sister-in-law, hurry up and get inside, or you'll catch a cold again."
Sheng An Ning looked at the snowflakes falling on the cabbages in the vegetable field, turning them white almost instantly, and her mood became depressed again.
It was still summer when Zhou Shixun left, and now it’s winter. Why hasn’t he come back yet?
I was a little upset. If Zhou Shixun didn't come back, I would ignore him when he came back.
…
Xiao Yan in the village also had a hard life. She married Han Niu in a hurry and got a marriage certificate, but she dared not inform her family. If her mother knew that she married a fool in the country, she would be furious.
But she wanted to go back to the city and go to college. She wanted a better life and to live for others, so this was the only shortcut she could take.
She thought Han Niu knew nothing and that she could just coax him after marriage so that they wouldn't have to have sex. But it turned out that this idiot, who knew someone had told him, actually pestered her to sleep with him every day.
He was still incompetent, so he tortured her body every day until it was covered with bruises.
Bite her, pinch her.
Yue Lian was very satisfied when she saw the marks on Xiao Yan's neck and face in the morning. She would cook two eggs for Xiao Yan every morning and said, "You and Han Niu should live a good life. If you have a child in the future, you will be a great contributor to our family. We will worship you like a Bodhisattva in the future."
Xiao Yan didn't want to hear this and looked at the village party secretary: "You promised to sign and stamp it for me. When will you stamp it?"
As long as she has the stamp of the village party secretary, she can register for the college entrance examination.
The village party secretary waved his hand and said, "Don't worry. Registration will end at the end of next month. There's still time. And I want to see if you really want to live with our silly cow. Once you get pregnant, I'll stamp your application."
There is no longer the sanctimonious face of the past.
Xiao Yan was a little anxious when she heard this. Hanniu was not good at that. How could he get pregnant? It was impossible in this life: "We have already got the marriage certificate. How can I lie to you?"
The village party secretary shook his head: "That's not the case. If you get into college, will you come back? Have you thought about how to arrange for Hanniu?"
Xiao Yan frowned: "What do you mean?"
Yue Lian was not afraid of Xiao Yan's anger: "As long as you give birth to a child for our family, we will definitely let you go, even if you get divorced in the future."
Xiao Yan sneered: "You can't even have a son, how can you have a child?"
The village party secretary and Yue Lian looked at each other. Seeing their son, who was as strong as an ox, couldn't do it? They thought he was just stupid, but they didn't expect him to be unable to do it?
Yue Lian was a little unconvinced: "Is he incapable of doing this? You are a doctor, can you teach him?"
Xiao Yan felt sick just thinking about it. Asking her to teach a fool about the bridal chamber?
She felt even more desperate, as if she had been deceived by the village party secretary. Wang Chunhong had already obtained his stamp and was actively preparing for the exam.
…
The snow fell for two days. It fell at night and melted during the day, and the roads were all muddy.
Sheng Anning saw that the neighbors were buying coal briquettes and coal blocks, pushing them back on small carts and piling them in the corner. She originally wanted to go with Zhou Chaoyang, but Zhou Chaoyang was busy those two days.
After thinking about it, she decided to go by herself.
First, I went to the housing management department of the staff quarters to borrow a cart, and then pushed it to the place where the coal briquettes were pulled.
The cart that seemed easy to push became very disobedient in her hands and ran around on the muddy road.
Sheng An Ning regretted the moment she pushed the car out of the family compound. She couldn't even push an empty car, let alone one loaded with coal. She stood on the side of the road somewhat discouraged, planning to return the car later.
Zhou Shixun was sitting in the car and saw Sheng Anning pushing a cart at the gate from a distance. His heart was warmed and he shouted to the driver to stop.
Lu Changfeng naturally saw Sheng Anning, and then looked at Zhou Shixun's impatient look, holding his forehead and said, "It's not too late to stop the car when you get there. Why are you stopping the car now and running over? We're already at the doorstep, why are you still in such a hurry?"
Sheng An Ning watched a jeep stop in front of her. She saw the person inside through the window and her heart suddenly stopped. The man she had been thinking about day and night had finally come back.
Looking at Zhou Shixun through the car window, she suddenly felt wronged. She held the handrail of the cart and looked at Zhou Shixun with red eyes.
Zhou Shixun opened the door and got out of the car eagerly without waiting for the car to stop. Looking at the woman he hadn't seen for more than two months, he felt a little excited and nervous, but he didn't know what to say. He stared at Sheng An Ning fiercely, and after a long while, he said, "I'm back."
Sheng An Ning had decided to ignore him when he came back, but when she saw him, she couldn't help but ask, "Why are you so thin?"
He is much thinner than when he left, and the lines on his face are clearer and firmer.
Zhou Shixun replied vaguely: "No, I haven't lost weight."
He hurried over to help Sheng An Ning push the cart. When he bent down for a moment, his eyes fell on Sheng An Ning's belly. He didn't know if it was his illusion, but he felt that Sheng An Ning, who was wearing a tight cotton jacket, had a bulging belly. Had she gained weight?
Lu Changfeng also got off the car and snatched the cart from Zhou Shixun's hand: "What are you going to do, sister-in-law? I'll go. You and Old Zhou haven't seen each other for a long time. Go back and talk first."
He didn't dare let Zhou Shixun move as his injury had not yet healed.
Sheng Anning looked suspiciously at the usually aloof Lu Changfeng who suddenly became attentive, then turned to look at Zhou Shixun: "Are you injured?"
Zhou Shixun quickly shook his head: "No...no."
Sheng An Ning didn't believe it, so she grabbed Zhou Shixun's clothes and tried to take them off in public: "Let me see."
Zhou Shixun quickly grabbed her wrist and said, "Let's talk about it when we get home. There are so many people here."
Sheng An Ning had already seen the gauze wrapped around her abdomen, and her eyes became even redder: "You promised not to get hurt."
Zhou Shixun looked at Sheng Anning helplessly: "It's okay, it's just a minor injury, let's go home first."
Sheng Anning told Lu Changfeng to return the cart to the Housing Management Department, and she wiped her tears and went home with Zhou Shixun.
After entering the room, he took off his cotton coat and stood in front of the stove angrily without saying a word.
Without her coat, Sheng Anning, wearing only a sweater, looked even more bulging in her belly.
Even if Zhou Shixun didn't understand anything, he knew that his wife was pregnant. His heartbeat quickened with nervousness, his mouth became dry, and he rubbed his hands and stood beside Sheng Anning: "When did you get pregnant?"
He wanted to touch Sheng An Ning's belly but didn't dare to, and his expression became a little restrained and cautious.
Sheng An Ning glanced at him: "What does it have to do with you? This is my child. You didn't tell me that you were injured outside. You might as well not come back."
Zhou Shixun pursed his lips and said, "It's not serious. It's much better now."
Sheng An Ning was very angry, but she couldn't help but worry. She was sullen for a while and glared at Zhou Shixun: "Go sit by the bed and take off your clothes!"
