Later, I was chatting with Liu Lin from Political Commissar Wang's family, and she also mentioned that she had seen Zheng Pingping bullying Ling Ju. That time, they had a fight, but Zheng Pingping had Xu Yan's help, so Ling Ju didn't argue. "You said Ling Ju did this later, I think it was revenge after being bullied so badly that she wanted to get back at Zheng Pingping." Everyone in the hospital knew that Zheng Pingping liked Song Qi, calling him "brother" all the time.
Li Zhigang glanced at his wife. After all these years of marriage, it was impossible for her to lie. Nor was it possible for her to speak up for someone just because they gave her some candy.
"It seems some things may not be what we think."
"Yeah, there's a lot of gossip going on in the courtyard right now. Zheng Pingping can't wait to say something bad about Ling Ju whenever she sees someone she goes out to."
"Song Qi has already filed a marriage report today, and the marriage certificate will be issued soon."
"I actually think that Ling Ju marrying Captain Song isn't necessarily a bad thing."
"As a soldier, you have to take responsibility."
Ling Ju decided not to eat dinner anymore in order to lose weight!
I boiled a pot of water and brewed jasmine tea. Drinking tea can relieve hunger. I walked more than ten kilometers that day and my legs were shaking.
Not knowing when Ling Yong came back, Ling Ju slept in a daze until dawn. The wake-up call rang, and her legs were so sore that she massaged herself for a while before getting up.
I looked at my face in the mirror, which was big and round, so I got up and boiled the Chinese medicine.
While I was boiling the medicine, Ling Yong came back, still bringing breakfast.
"Why do oranges smell so medicinal?"
"I went to the pharmacy yesterday to have my pulse checked to see what was wrong with my face, and the doctor prescribed some medicine for me to try."
"Okay, I'll leave your breakfast here. I'm going to work."
While eating breakfast, Ling Ju felt that Ling Yong was a really nice brother. He brought her lunch and money every day.
In my previous life, I was an only child and never experienced life with older brothers or sisters, but I found that having a brother is not bad.
After breakfast, I drank some extremely bitter Chinese medicine and was bored and dazed. I decided to go find Hongying to plant some vegetables today.
When I arrived at Hongying's house, Hongying was just about to go out with her child. I arrived just in time.
"Sister-in-law, I don't have any tools."
"It's okay, they're all there, we can just go get one."
When Ling Ju reached the edge of the field, he realized how big the ten acres of land was!
"Even though ten acres of land seems very large, there are still many people in our group, and it's not enough to eat." Hongying saw her confusion.
June is the hottest season and there are not many people working in the fields. Upon asking, I found out that it is usually the people from the kitchen team who are in charge, and the military families just help out as much as they can. In this season, they just plant some fast-growing green onions, coriander, leeks and the like. Other plants with long growth periods have already been planted.
Today's task is to pull out weeds. This acre of land is planted with green cabbages.
It was really difficult for a fat man weighing 170 or 180 kilograms to squat and weed in the hot sun, and it was also very hot, but Ling Ju was determined that doing some farm work could help him lose weight, and sweating more would help him lose weight faster.
In the morning, Hongying and I worked over half an acre of land, surprising her. Lingju was surprisingly efficient. While the adults worked, Tingting played nearby, pulling weeds, chasing butterflies, and chatting away. She was so happy that Lingju didn't feel so tired anymore.
I took a break at noon and unexpectedly got a big bag of purslane and Chinese cabbage after working half an acre of land.
Purslane is a wild vegetable, it would be a pity to throw it away.
Ling Ju likes to eat purslane very much. This vegetable can reduce internal heat and is especially good to eat in summer. It is also good for her skin.
I went to the grocery store and bought some soy sauce, vinegar, and sesame oil. I also borrowed two cloves of garlic from Hongying. I went back home to wash the purslane, stir-fry it, and make a cold salad. It was delicious! With the leftover cornmeal pancakes from this morning, I felt like this was a very healthy meal.
Fat people sweat a lot, and when the weather is hot, they keep wiping their bodies with a wet towel.
Just after finishing the meal and drinking tea, Ling Yong came back, followed by Song Qi with an expressionless face.
"Brother, why are you back?"
Ling Yong didn't say anything. Song Qi took out two red pieces from his pocket and handed one to Ling Ju.
After reading the four big words "Marriage Certificate" on the red paper, Ling Ju's mouth twitched...
How can the efficiency be so fast?
"You can move into Song Qi's house today."
"Ah!! I don't want to move!"
Ling Yong rolled his eyes. "What kind of girl would live with her brother after getting married and separating from her husband? Hurry up and pack up. We're moving in for you now. We're going out for a few days later, so you'll have to move on your own."
Nodding reluctantly, the two men took action.
There weren't many things, so Ling Ju packed her own clothes, while Ling Yong and Song Qi moved the other more important items.
Looking at the muscle lines on Song Qi's face when he was exerting force to move things, his face turned red unconsciously.
Just move, at worst we won't be sharing a bed. If that doesn't work out, we can just wait and get a divorce. Anyway, I can find a job and live in a dorm.
The two men moved in no time, to Song Qi's single dormitory. Ling Yong put the two single beds together.
Forget it, let’s separate the beds after her brother leaves. She doesn’t want to sleep in the same bed with Song Qi for the time being, it’s scary.
Looking at the Chinese medicine bag in Ling Ju's hand, Song Qi couldn't help but be curious, "Are you sick?"
"Well, take some medicine to adjust your mood."
Afterwards, no one paid any attention to each other and stood at the door, not knowing what to do. Song Qi was packing his luggage, and Ling Yong also went back to pack his luggage.
Looking at Song Qi packing his luggage with his head down, I didn't know what to say.
After thinking for a while, she said, "Song Qi, if you don't want to, let's wait a while before getting a divorce. I was wrong that day, and I apologize to you."
Song Qi still didn't say anything.
Song Qi left.
... It seems that he just ignored her.
Looking at this house that is both familiar and unfamiliar, I feel mixed emotions.
She separated the two double beds, one on the left and one on the right, and Ling Ju lay on her own bed, deciding to make the best of it.
