Chapter 57: I'm doing this for your own good
In Huaxi Brigade, without Shen Jintao and Huo Beichuan knowing, the relationship between Shen Chunmiao and Lu Qingshan had completely deteriorated.
Lu Qingshan worked hard all day, but when he returned to the educated youth center, he found the food was deserted. Because he was married, he no longer ate with the other educated youth. He thought that Chen Chunmiao would have prepared dinner when he came back, but he was nowhere to be seen.
Lu Qingshan immediately became angry and rushed out of the educated youth site to look for someone.
I went to Old Shen's house and found Xie Lanzhi, but discovered that Chen Chunmiao was not at her mother's house.
Seeing her son-in-law so angry, Xie Lanzhi's heart skipped a beat. "Qingshan, what are you doing? Why do you look so unhappy?"
Lu Qingshan's expression was indeed not good, "Mom, have you seen Chunmiao?"
"No, what's wrong? Didn't she say she was not feeling well and went back to rest? Why isn't she at home?"
It was Xie Lanzhi who asked for leave. Now the acting captain was Shen Jianmin, which made her unhappy. She felt that her father-in-law was behind it. Otherwise, why would the team members choose Shen Jianmin, who knew nothing, instead of a family man?
"No, I worked hard all day, but when I got home, there was no one there, and I didn't even have a sip of hot water to drink!"
Lu Qingshan said with dissatisfaction.
He really regretted marrying Shen Chunmiao. He originally thought that the old lady of the Shen family liked Shen Chunmiao more, and that if he married her he would definitely be able to get a spot to return to the city. However, he did not expect that the old man of the Shen family would simply quit.
What's even more infuriating is that the current acting captain is Shen Jintao's father. If I had agreed to be with Shen Jintao at the beginning, it would have been easy to get a spot to return to the city. It's not like now, where everything is in vain.
Hearing her son-in-law say this, Xie Lanzhi felt a little uncomfortable. Her daughter said it was okay, but her son-in-law said it was not okay.
"Qingshan, you don't earn much work points to begin with, and Chunmiao has to work, too. She just asked for leave today because she felt uncomfortable. Maybe she went to see a doctor. How can you say that?"
"My family has helped you a lot since you two got married. It's really heartless of you to talk like that!"
Hearing Xie Lanzhi's words, Lu Qingshan was also very angry, "I know what you mean, but so what? I am a city dweller, and I will definitely go back in the future. It is already very good that Chen Chunmiao can get a city hukou with me. She should be content. Besides, which woman doesn't cook?"
"Chen Chunmiao is different. She does things based on her mood every day. If she's in a good mood, she'll cook for me. If she's in a bad mood, she'll leave me hungry. Now that we're not sharing a meal with other educated youth, is she going to starve me to death by not cooking?"
Xie Lanzhi glared at him, "What are you talking about? Don't you have arms and legs? Why do you have to let Chunmiao cook for you? Can't you cook? You are a man, can't you be more considerate?"
"I can't talk to you!"
Lu Qingshan left angrily again. He wanted to find Chen Chunmiao and teach this woman a lesson.
But after searching the entire brigade, there was no sign of Chen Chunmiao. Just when Lu Qingshan was planning to go home and cook something to fill his hungry stomach, he happened to see Chen Chunmiao walking out of Huang Erniu's house.
Chen Chunmiao did not expect that Lu Qingshan would find this place. After all, Huang Erniu's family lived in a relatively remote place, and he had never been seen looking for her everywhere. What happened today?
"Qing...Qingshan, why are you here?"
Lu Qingshan stared at Chen Chunmiao for a long time. Seeing that her face was ruddy, she didn't look sick at all. "Why did you come to Huang Erniu's house?"
He knew Huang Erniu, but he was a notorious scoundrel in Huaxi Brigade. How could she be involved with Huang Erniu?
Lu Qingshan felt a bad feeling rising in his heart.
Chen Chunmiao's eyes dodged, "I just... I just need Huang Erniu's help with something, so I came to find him."
Lu Qingshan didn't believe it, "How can he help? Chen Chunmiao, don't treat me like a fool."
"Really!" Chen Chunmiao's eyes rolled, and she thought of an excuse. "You may not know, but Huang Erniu has a relative who is a cadre in the commune, and he has more influence than the team leader. I brought some things to see him just to ask him to help put in a good word. Qingshan, I know you have always wanted to go back to the city. I, a country girl, can't really help you. Besides, my grandfather is not the team leader anymore, and my uncle is the acting team leader. You know, they have always disliked me because I pushed Chen Jintao's matter. If I go to ask them, they will definitely not agree. It's better to think of other ways. I'm doing this for you!"
"Is everything you said true?" He had been displeased with Chen Chunmiao for some time, but when he heard that she was working hard to get him back to the city, he suddenly felt guilty that he had even made malicious assumptions about her.
What’s more important is returning to the city. It would be great if Huang Erniu could really help.
"Really? I've already talked to him about it, and he promised to talk to his relatives when he gets a chance. Qingshan, let's go home. The baby in your belly is saying he's hungry."
Shen Chunmiao touched her belly and looked at Lu Qingshan with a smile.
Lu Qingshan didn't think about anything else. "Do you want me to go in and thank Huang Erniu?"
"No, no, the fewer people who know about this, the better. If someone passes by here and sees us here, they will definitely think too much. Let's not go in. Huang Erniu has already promised me anyway."
Lu Qingshan nodded, and went home with Shen Chunmiao. Halfway through the journey, he suddenly felt something strange. "Huang Erniu is not an easy person to get along with. How come he has such a good relationship with you? He wants to help you as soon as you ask? Why do I feel like something is wrong?"
Chen Chunmiao's heart skipped a beat. "Hey, it's because I often send him some gifts. I have used up all the treasures my mother gave me. This is all for you. You must treat me well when you return to the city."
"Think about it, I'm pregnant with your child, how could it be related to Huang Erniu? I know Huang Erniu has a bad reputation and that kind of thing happened to him before, but with such an outstanding man like you, how could I possibly be interested in someone like that? Don't be so suspicious."
Of course, Chen Chunmiao understood the meaning of Lu Qingshan's words. Wasn't it that he was thinking about the romantic scandal that Huang Erniu had caused before and was doubting himself? After all, the heroine of that incident has never been caught.
