Fu Hongxing's family also needs to provide a laborer. Logically speaking, Fu Hongxing is a worker, so he should not be included in this participation.
Therefore, among the entire family, only Ning Jing agreed to participate in the reservoir repair project.
Upon returning home and learning that his family needed to send someone to repair the reservoir, Fu Hongxing immediately offered to go in Ning Jing's place.
Ning Jing did not agree. She calmly prepared the meal and let the children eat first. Then she pulled Fu Hongxing into the house for a heart-to-heart talk.
"After Sister Guihua told me, I went to the brigade headquarters with her to register."
However, we applied for the cooking team.
With so many people building the reservoir, cooking is no small matter.
Could it be that Comrade Fu Hongxing intends to cook for someone else in my place?
Ning Jing pursed her lips, stepped forward with a smile, hugged Fu Hongxing's waist, rested her chin on his chest, looked up at Fu Hongxing, and chuckled.
A woman desires most when a man is willing to do anything for her and doesn't want her to suffer.
She made a decision, originally intending to find a suitable opportunity to treat the bullet in Fu Hongxing's head.
However, if they wanted to get Fu Hongxing to receive treatment without anyone noticing, they were still a little short of gold coins.
Why not take this opportunity to resolve this matter properly, so that she can feel at ease and no longer have to worry?
Fu Hongxing's brows remained furrowed even after hearing Ning Jing's words.
Just as Ning Jing said, with so many people building the reservoir, cooking is no small matter.
I guess I'll have to go wash and chop vegetables very early in the morning. In the dead of winter, it's hard to relax with my hands in the icy water.
He couldn't help but feel heartache when he thought about how hard his wife had worked to raise her fair and tender hands.
"Don't worry, I won't mistreat myself."
If you don't work, how will you manage your household expenses each month?
It's just washing and cleaning. I cook at home and I cook there too, just more often.
Besides, there must be more than just me in that mess hall.
With so many people working together, it wasn't easy, but it was still much better than digging mud and carrying soil.
Seeing that the man still had a stern face, Ning Jing couldn't help but twist her body and say in a coquettish tone.
Most importantly, cooking for so many people can earn you a considerable amount of gold coins every day.
I believe that once the reservoir is repaired, there will be even more gold coins.
However, Ning Jing had planned that once she had enough gold coins to buy the medicine, she would use it to treat Fu Hongxing.
Fu Hongxing was unaware of Ning Jing's ulterior motives; however, Ning Jing's coquettish behavior finally eased his furrowed brows.
She sighed and hugged Ning Jing back.
"I should find someone to get you a job in the coal mine."
Fu Hongxing said with some annoyance, "In that case, we don't have to worry about this kind of thing today."
Ning Jing lowered her head, tilted it to the side, and pressed half of her face against Fu Hongxing's chest.
Listening to the heartbeat in her ear, she smiled and said, "Silly girl, who can guarantee that there won't be anything else while working in a coal mine?"
Besides, it's just doing more work, it's nothing.
After all, we are striving to build a better future.
If this world is as turbulent as hers was before, then in the years to come, being a worker might not be as reassuring as being a farmer.
After hearing Ning Jing's words, Fu Hongxing remained silent for a long time before letting out a long sigh.
From the moment he learned about this incident to the words his wife spoke to him, he felt as if a heavy stone was pressing on his chest, making him extremely uncomfortable.
