Su Ying never leaves a slap in the face overnight. Instead of getting so angry that she can't sleep, she would rather make others lose sleep.
She didn't care who this young man was to Han Jingyuan.
She called out to Su Congyan, "Stop."
Su Congyan turned around tremblingly, "What instructions does sister-in-law have?"
Su Ying asked the little one beside her to teach Su Congyan a lesson, "Xingxing, you come and correct him."
Han Xinxing stood on a bench, leaned on the wall, and corrected him righteously: "Uncle Yan, you are wrong. I was raised with the money sent home by my second uncle, and the nanny who took care of me was hired with my uncle's money. Didn't Aunt Duan do anything well? She rolled her eyes when she saw me. How could she miss me?"
At this time, Han Jingchen and Gu Zhinan also climbed to the top of the wall with stools in their hands. Looking over, they saw that the four children, one big and four small, were all very good-looking and they also looked at him with contempt.
Su Congyan was extremely embarrassed and apologized to Su Ying: "I'm sorry, sister-in-law. I'll go home and talk to my wife and ask her not to interfere in your family affairs."
Su Ying said: "Why do you like to be used as a gun for others? You are really useful. You can hit whatever you point at. Your job is special. Can you please stop interfering in family matters?"
Su Congyan's face turned red when Su Ying said that.
Han Jingyuan picked up the paper airplane on the ground, returned to the yard and helped the four children, one big and one small, to get it down from the top of the wall.
Su Ying said: "I didn't mean to eavesdrop, it was Xingxing who said he wanted to fly a paper airplane."
Han Xinxing said: "Yes, actually I didn't mean to fly a paper plane, I just wanted to find an excuse to eavesdrop."
Han Jingyuan tapped her clever little forehead and said, "You've been spoiled by your second sister-in-law."
He went into the house, took a letter and went out again.
Han Jingchen recognized that it was a forged letter that Aunt Duan had written to deceive him, and gloated: "Uncle Yan is going to be in trouble. He is so stupid."
Su Ying couldn't help but roll her eyes at him, "You talk as if you are so smart. If it weren't for you, would I have been caught by your second uncle and climbed up the tree?"
Han Jingchen was in the wrong and dared not say anything.
…
Han Jingyuan gave Su Congyan the letter that Duan Chuxia forged to deceive the child.
"Look, Duan Chuxia can even forge a letter. She is so extremely paranoid, how can I let her have contact with the child?"
Su Congyan is not a fool. Even if Brother Han Jingyuan has a letter to leave for his son, he will never give it to Duan Chuxia.
His face turned pale; he really didn't know anything about the letter.
“Brother, I…”
Han Jingyuan interrupted him and warned: "Don't let a woman affect your judgment. You are a soldier."
Su Congyan was not convinced. He said that soldiers were also human beings, with emotions and desires, eating grains and having concerns in their hearts.
"Will you be influenced by Su Ying?"
Han Jingyuan did not hesitate, "I have principles on major issues."
Besides, he always felt that Su Ying would never put him in a dilemma.
She asked Zhinan and Jingchen to wash her own clothes, but she would help him wash his military uniform. She would also put hot charcoal in an iron can to make a simple iron and help him iron his military uniform until it was wrinkle-free.
Soo Young says she can’t bear to see his uniform stained.
A woman who respects his profession more than he is as a person will not make him feel torn between his career and family.
Han Jingyuan felt a surge of excitement in his heart. He was really lucky to have found Su Ying.
Although it is just an agreement to raise a child for now.
…
In the evening, Su Ying asked Han Jingyuan what the relationship between Su Congyan and the Han family was, and why he had the nerve to come over and advise him to be magnanimous.
Han Jingyuan explained the relationships among the companies involved.
"Didn't I tell you before that my eldest brother has two good brothers, Duan Fan and Su Xun. Su Congyan is the same age as me and is Su Xun's younger brother. His wife Shen Meijing is his eldest brother's fiancée. After his eldest brother died, Su Congyan insisted on marrying Shen Meijing despite everyone's opposition."
"Shen Meijing gave birth to Youyou seven months after her wedding. Everyone tacitly agreed that it was Su Xun's child. Even the Su family agreed to their marriage and stopped talking about it."
When Su Congyan came to her house to thank her in the evening, Su Ying realized that Su Congyan and Su Zhenyou were not biological father and son.
For all blood relatives, the basic color of the energy field is the same, just like the DNA in the body, which can never be wrong.
When she found out that Su Zhenyou was not Su Congyan's biological son, she was still struggling over whether to tell Han Jingyuan.
Needless to say now.
Su Congyan is willing to help his eldest brother raise his son, Su Ying helps his original body raise his child, and Han Jingyuan also helps his eldest brother and sister-in-law raise their child.
Anyway, no one is qualified to question the teachings.
…
The next morning, Qiao Lanlan came to Su Ying and said that the logistics department had a car going to the market and asked Su Ying if she wanted to go.
There is a small market every five days and a big market every ten days. No tickets are required for the items on the market.
Although small stalls are not allowed now and even the market was cancelled for a period of time, the restrictions have been relaxed in the past two years. Farmers can pick up some things and exchange or sell them at the market, and no one cares; it has become a habit.
There are many fishermen on the coast, and if you are lucky, you can buy dried seafood that can be stored.
Of course Su Ying had to go, and her family members lined up at the entrance of the service center waiting for the car.
The service agency arranged a car for every big market. Shen Meijing did not bring her child and sat alone in the car. She was a teacher, with a strong literary temperament, quiet and beautiful, but she just didn't like to talk to people.
I heard from Qiao Lanlan that she has been with the army for a year and is even less popular in the staff quarters than Su Ying because she is too arrogant and looks down on everyone.
There were many people on the bus, and the seats on both sides of the bed were very crowded. The aunt sitting next to Shen Meijing accidentally squeezed her arm. Shen Meijing pursed her lips and frowned, crossed her arms across her chest, and turned her face to the other side.
As soon as the car arrived at the market, Shen Meijing couldn't wait to get off.
Qiao Lanlan whispered, "Do you think she heard the time to gather and return?"
Su Ying said, "Who cares? If you miss it, just walk two kilometers and take the bus."
Qiao Lanlan also couldn't stand Shen Meijing. "She's from a big city, and she looks down on us, the family members who came from a poor and remote area."
Su Ying found it funny. Qiao Lanlan was an educated youth from Beijing.
"Aren't you from a big city too? She wouldn't even look down on you, would she?"
Qiao Lanlan said, "That's different. She has never been to the countryside. I worked on the farm for six or seven years and was covered in dirt. How could she, a delicate young lady who has never suffered and is pampered by her parents-in-law and husband, possibly be interested in me? She would not even bother to be friends with me."
Speaking of friends, Su Ying is better. She broke up with her ex-husband cleanly and lived her life seriously, unlike Su Meijing.
She was too much. She had such a good life, but she refused to enjoy it. Later, she even got entangled with her ex-boyfriend and insisted on divorcing Su Congyan.
Su Congyan was disheartened and after changing his job, he engaged in the most dangerous drug enforcement work and died on the front line.
Therefore, Qiao Lanlan had no good feelings towards Shen Meijing before and after her rebirth.
…
She gossiped with Su Ying, "Shen Meijing had a boyfriend when she was in college, but they broke up because of her family's opposition. After that, she listened to her family's arrangement and got engaged to Su Congyan. Before they got married, Su Xun died. Then, Su Congyan had a crush on Shen Meijing, who was two years older than him, since childhood, and he insisted on marrying her despite his family's opposition."
Su Ying said: "That's probably true love, right?"
Qiao Lanlan pouted, "That was Su Congyan's unrequited love. Let me tell you, Shen Meijing's ex-boyfriend moved to the farm I went to last year, and then Su Congyan was transferred to South Island. He also told his family that the climate in South Island is good and the environment is good for Youyou's asthma. He took the initiative to ask to be transferred here, and it has nothing to do with my wife."
Su Ying asked, "Does Su Congyan know that Shen Meijing's ex-boyfriend lives on the farm on the island?"
Qiao Lanlan wasn't sure, "Even if I didn't know before I came here, I definitely know it now."
…
Su Ying and Qiao Lanlan took their four children to the market. Su Ying thought the dried eels were very good and asked Qiao Lanlan to buy some. "This is especially delicious when soaked in water and grilled with meat."
Qiao Lanlan bought some and said, "Then you can teach me when you get back."
Su Ying also bought a lot, including some vegetable seeds. There is also open space in the yard, so she can plant more vegetables, fruits and melons. There are four children in the family, so she wants to find more things for them to do.
Han Jingchen ran over and asked Su Ying to go to the west to buy eggs, and also told her the reason.
"There is a poor little sister. Her stepmother insists that she sell eggs for ten cents each. If she fails to sell them, she will be beaten when she returns home. Second Aunt, let's buy all her eggs."
The eggs sold at the supply and marketing cooperative were only seven cents each. Even though you didn't need a ticket to go to the market, you couldn't sell eggs that were only ten cents each.
The righteous Qiao Lanlan said: "Is there such an unreasonable stepmother? Let's go and take a look."
Su Ying analyzed, "Maybe someone bought the girl out of pity before, and it worked, so her stepmother will naturally continue to use this trick.
Qiao Lanlan said bitterly: "If you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather. You really can't count on a bastard man."
Su Ying burst out laughing, and Qiao Lanlan asked her what she was laughing at.
Su Ying smiled and said, "Your stepson is only a few years younger than you, how dare you mention him."
Qiao Lanlan blushed, "Bah, don't mention Lao Ding's heartless stepdaughter and son."
I was really screwed by Old Ding in my previous life.
Han Jingchen brought them over. Under the scorching sun, a little girl in her teens was wearing short-sleeved shirt and shorts, and there were bruises on her exposed arms and calves.
The little girl had the kind of delicate and soft look that made people love her. She was standing under the scorching sun, holding a small bamboo basket in her hands. There were more than twenty eggs in the basket.
If you buy all of them, it’s only a little over two dollars.
Han Jingchen pointed to them and said, "Look how pitiful that little sister is. The stars are shining brightly, and you two have beautiful dresses to wear. You are very lucky."
Cancan nodded quickly, "Yeah, I'm very happy."
Han Xinxing gritted her teeth and said, "If Second Aunt dares to ask me to sell eggs, I will throw all the eggs at her. Either she beats me to death, or she won't dare to ask me to sell eggs next time."
Su Ying couldn't help but admire Xingxing's amazing remarks. This was indeed a good way of bargaining.
Gu Zhinan was amazed. "Xingxing, why would you think so? My sister would never do such a thing to us."
Han Xinxing quickly expressed her loyalty to Su Ying, "Mom, I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about my former second aunt. Mom is the best, I like her the most."
Han Jingchen glared at his sister, feeling a little annoyed that she had no sympathy for the poor stranger.
Then he asked Su Ying, "Second Aunt, should we buy it?"
“No.”
"Why? If you buy all of it, it's only a little over two dollars. It's not like you can't afford it."
Su Ying explained to Han Jingchen: "Look at the scars on her arms and legs. Her stepmother deliberately hit her where others can see her, just to win everyone's sympathy for her."
"Today it's eggs, you can spend some money to solve it, but tomorrow it may be a problem that will cost you your life. It's a losing business to help others but end up losing your own life. I hope the four of you remember this. I won't allow it here."
"Besides, you can only rely on others to save you temporarily, but not forever. If you want to change, you still have to rely on yourself. Her stepmother is a smart person. The girl just has a hard time at home, but she won't die."
Han Jingchen obviously disagreed. He didn't understand what his second aunt said about just buying eggs.
He secretly discussed with Gu Zhinan and wanted to borrow some pocket money from him. Gu Zhinan was really in a difficult situation. If he didn't lend the money, he would be called stingy, and their relationship would be even more difficult in the future.
But he also felt that what his sister said made sense, so he hesitated.
Han Jingchen said dissatisfiedly: "It's not like I won't pay you back."
Su Ying heard this and scolded the two teenagers, "My words don't work anymore, do they?"
Gu Zhinan was frightened by Su Ying's severity. He nodded quickly, "Sister, I understand."
Only Han Jingchen was still struggling.
…
There was only half an hour left before the return trip, but Su Ying suddenly saw Shen Meijing going to a sparsely populated alley with a well-mannered young man.
In fact, it was none of Su Ying’s business what kind of man Shen Meijing met. If it weren’t for the color of the man’s aura, which made it clear that he was Su Zhenyou’s biological father, Su Ying would never have wanted to go over to take a look.
Everyone thought that Youyou was Su Congyan's brother's child. Su Congyan was willing to help his brother raise the child and no one had the right to interfere.
But today she accidentally discovered Youyou's biological father, and she was really curious.
Does the man know that the child born to his ex-girlfriend is his?
This is very important.
…
Su Ying hurriedly followed and asked Qiao Lanlan to take the four children back to the gathering point first. Turning around, she saw Qiao Lanlan still there, staring blankly at the little girl selling eggs in the distance.
"Lanlan." Su Ying called her, but Qiao Lanlan didn't even turn around.
Su Ying ran over and patted Qiao Lanlan on the shoulder, "Lanlan, what's wrong with you?"
Qiao Lanlan came back to her senses, and the aura around her suddenly turned bright yellow, a color that represented shock and disbelief.
Su Ying followed Qiao Lanlan's gaze and discovered that the change in her aura was related to the little girl who sold eggs at high prices.
The aura of that little girl is too mottled, a mixture of good and bad, both good and evil.
This is also one of the reasons why Su Ying does not allow Han Jingchen, this stupid boy, to show sympathy casually.
After having too much contact with a girl like this who couldn't decide whether she was good or bad, Su Ying was worried that Han Jingchen would become a stepping stone for her in the future.
Anyway, the little girl is lucky and has noble people helping her throughout her life, but Su Ying would never let the four children in the family be this stepping stone.
Qiao Lanlan had also retracted her gaze, pretending nothing had happened, and said, "Ah, the gathering time is almost here, let's go back."
Su Ying said, "I want to buy a few more bamboo baskets. You take the four children to the meeting point. I will definitely go back before the departure."
"Okay, go and come back soon."
…
After Su Ying left, Han Jingchen was still thinking of doing something good. He didn't dare to disobey Su Ying alone, so he instigated Gu Zhinan to go buy eggs with him.
"Gu Zhinan, let's go buy all the eggs for that little sister. She is so pitiful."
Gu Zhinan also felt that the younger sister was quite pitiful, but he was still frightened by Su Ying's harshness just now, "This is not good, I will be scolded by my sister."
"But we don't get scolded, but that little sister gets beaten when she gets home. We are men, so a few scoldings don't matter to us."
Gu Zhinan was almost persuaded.
Qiao Lanlan suddenly became very angry and exploded even more harshly than Su Ying, slapping the boy on the back of the head.
"How old are you? You're already thinking about being a hero and saving the damsel in distress. Where does your pocket money come from? It's given by adults. Wait until you've earned some money, then challenge your second aunt."
She was so angry that she grabbed Han Jingchen's ear and said, "You little heartless thing, your second aunt loves you so much in vain. Why do you want to make your second aunt angry for someone you don't know or have nothing to do with? Do you have a conscience?"
Han Jingchen was shocked. "Auntie Lanlan, why are you so fierce? It's just a few eggs."
Qiao Lanlan didn't care and dragged her away to Han Jingchen.
In her previous life, the little girl's life was not miserable. In fact, her mother married a capable man.
Later she went to her biological mother's house, and her stepfather treated her well. But later, the stepfather's biological daughter became jealous of her favor, and they fought against each other and ended up being sent to labor camp.
This little girl selling eggs had entanglements with Gu Zhinan and Han Jingchen in her previous life.
Han Jingchen, this stupid boy, even accidentally injured Gu Zhinan and was imprisoned for a few years.
In this life, these two boys unexpectedly became a family because Su Ying married Han Jingyuan.
Qiao Lanlan thought that the tragic love triangle from her previous life would never happen again, but because Su Ying stayed on the island with the children, they actually met each other as teenagers.
Several years earlier than in the previous life.
Qiao Lanlan was overwhelmed. She dragged the two teenagers to the gathering point and watched the four children waiting for Su Ying.
…
Su Ying returned to the gathering point at the appointed time, and all the family members except Shen Meijing had arrived.
The driver counted and found that one sister-in-law was missing, and his brows frowned. It was like this every time. There were always one or two sisters-in-law who bought things without looking at the time and made everyone wait.
The driver kindly urged everyone to be patient, "Sisters-in-law, please sit down for a while. I will go find it."
Qiao Lanlan was annoyed. "If she's late, just let her walk back. It's only two kilometers away. There's a bus two kilometers away."
Having said that, everyone continued to wait impatiently.
After waiting for more than half an hour, the driver finally found Shen Meijing.
Shen Meijing's face turned pale and the driver's face turned a little blue.
Su Ying estimated that when the driver went over, he saw Shen Meijing being ambiguous with a strange young man and was frightened.
After all, Su Ying also saw it, and it was Shen Meijing who took the initiative.
Her ex-boyfriend was about to leave, but Shen Meijing insisted on talking to him. Perhaps because she kept pestering him for too long, she was seen by the driver who came over.
The seats in the car were spacious and there were no suitable empty seats. The driver knew that everyone was resentful because they had to wait for half an hour longer, so he could only persuade them: "Sisters-in-law, please squeeze in and make room for Sister-in-law Shen."
Shen Meijing ignored everyone when she came, and asked everyone to wait for her when she left. Several sisters-in-law complained, "It's so crowded, where can we make room?"
It is possible to squeeze in, but people just don't want to.
Shen Meijing has a strong sense of self-esteem, and she didn't ask for help. "Then I'll take the bus."
The young driver tried to persuade her, "Sister-in-law, the bus from here to the family compound may not come for half an hour, and you have to change buses two or three times, which is too troublesome. I will be punished for not bringing one less person on this return trip."
Su Ying sighed. She couldn't bear to see the young driver being bullied like this. He had done nothing wrong.
She held Cancan on her lap and said, "Xingxing, sit on your Aunt Lan's lap."
This frees up a more spacious seat.
Shen Meijing pursed her lips and got into the car. It was not until the car started that she whispered, "Thank you."
Qiao Lanlan snorted, "If you don't mean it, don't say it. Who can hear it?"
Shen Meijing gritted her teeth and said it again.
Su Ying just nodded. She made room for the driver so as not to embarrass him. It was not for her, so she did not need her thanks.
…
After returning home, Su Ying counted the things she had bought. She bought a chicken, thirty eggs, a pound of shrimp, and some fruits and vegetables.
Prepare chicken soup and cold noodles for lunch.
The two teenagers were already able to kill chickens by themselves, and Gu Zhinan was scalding chicken feathers in the yard.
Su Ying fried the peanuts and asked two girls to crush them with a mortar. She bought an old hen to make soup, and asked Gu Zhinan to remove the chicken breasts and thighs and tear them into shreds.
Then he asked Han Jingchen to knead the dough. The boy was already very skilled in cooking and he kneaded the dough very well.
Knead the dough and let it rest for half an hour, roll it into a thin dough sheet, cut it into evenly thin noodles, rinse it with cold boiled water after it is cooked, sprinkle some crushed peanuts and shredded chicken, then pour the prepared seasoning on it, add some oil and some sesame oil. It is perfect to eat in summer.
Gu Cancan's belly was full after eating so much, "Mom, please leave some for Dad."
Su Ying said, "There is also shredded chicken, which we will make in the evening."
Then he asked Han Jingchen, "Can you still roll the noodles tonight?"
Han Jingchen didn’t eat enough either, so he nodded repeatedly.
Su Ying prepared another bowl and asked Xingxing to send it to Qiao Lanlan. Unexpectedly, after Qiao Lanlan finished eating, she came back with an empty bowl and said, "It's delicious. Do you have any more? Leave one for my Lao Ding. He loves noodles."
Now that the two families have become familiar with each other, she shouldn't be too thick-skinned.
Han Jingchen said: "I'll still make it tonight. I'll send you two bowls in the evening."
Qiao Lanlan praised, "You are awesome. I won't cook at night. I will roll more noodles at night, otherwise there won't be enough to eat. Oh, and I will provide the flour, so it won't be for nothing."
Han Jingchen: ...
Why are adults like this nowadays? They’re even lazier than him.
…
After lunch, Su Ying planned to take a nap. Just as she put down her bowl, the postman stood at the gate and asked, "Excuse me, is this Su Ying's home?"
Su Ying nodded, and the postman rummaged around, took out a letter and handed it to her, "Comrade Su, there's a letter for you."
Su Ying took the letter. The recipient was indeed "Su Ying" and the address matched. The sender did not write his full name, only "Ms. Ruan".
Su Ying has no memory of her original body, and doesn't know who this 'Ms. Ruan' is and why she sent her a letter?
She asked Gu Zhinan if he knew who it was?
Gu Zhinan said: "It seems that there are no relatives with the surname Ruan in my family."
Han Xinxing said: "My grandmother's last name is Ruan."
Han Jingchen thought it was impossible. "Grandma has a good relationship with the second aunt in front, why would she write a letter?"
The reason why my second uncle married my second aunt was that my grandmother acted without my permission and sent out the invitations. My second uncle disagreed at first, but agreed later.
Su Ying was probably written by Han Jingyuan’s biological mother.
It's quite novel that he wrote to her instead of to Han Jingyuan.
She wrote three pages of letter paper in total, two of which were all about how she regretted Han Jingyuan's first marriage. She criticized Han Jingyuan for a total of 800 words.
Then she said that she would be having her 50th birthday in early October and hoped to meet her grandchildren and Su Ying, her second daughter-in-law.
After reading the letter, Su Ying was so happy that she laughed all over.
If you think you can disgust her in this way, then you really underestimate her.
She handed the letter to the children and said, "Han Jingchen, take a look at this. Why does your grandma criticize your second uncle so much that he is worthless?"
Han Jingchen saw that it was really a letter from his grandmother and said unhappily, "What's so funny? Grandma won't like you. If you really go to her birthday party, you will definitely be angry."
"I can understand why she doesn't like me. Your second uncle is her biological son, so why doesn't she like him either?"
Han Jingchen shook his head. "I don't know. Sometimes I doubt that my second uncle is not her biological son, but my great grandfather assured me that my second uncle is definitely my grandmother's biological son and my second uncle. He told me not to let my imagination run wild."
Su Ying thought about it, handed the glue to Han Jingchen, and asked him to paste the envelope again.
He also told the four children, "Don't say you've read it. When Han Jingyuan comes back in the evening, let him deal with the letter himself."
Han Jingchen felt that his second uncle was in trouble and said, "What if I tell him?"
Su Ying said, "No, let's see what your uncle will do after receiving this letter. Don't you want to know who is more important to your uncle, you or your remarried grandmother?"
Han Jingchen really wanted to know. After all, his second uncle and great-grandfather were the only blood relatives he and Xingxing had left.
My grandmother doesn’t count, she remarried and doesn’t want them anymore.
…
When Han Jingyuan came back in the evening, he saw Han Jingchen kneading dough, Gu Zhinan chopping wood, and two little girls reading picture books with flashlights at the kitchen door.
This warm and daily scene was something he had never seen in the previous six years.
He told the girls to stop looking, "It's dark now, your eyes will be damaged."
Han Xinxing put away the book and said, "Uncle, let's have cold noodles tonight. I'll go next door and call Aunt Lanlan. She said, 'Make more tonight. Our old Ding loves noodles.'"
Han Jingyuan: "Don't go, don't give them food."
Han Xinxing: "That won't work. Aunt Lanlan brought the flour tonight. She said it's not for free."
Han Jingyuan was also speechless, "Go ahead."
Su Ying handed the letter to Han Jingyuan and said, "I received a letter from your mother today. Although I am the recipient, I have never met her. It is better for you, her son, to read it."
Han Jingyuan took the letter and found that everyone in the house, young and old, were looking at him. Han Xinxing, who was about to go next door to call someone, was waiting for him to open the letter before leaving.
He felt that these four children had set a trap for him to fall into, and perhaps the five of them had already seen it.
