Tang Baozhu had no idea that in her husband's eyes, she was the most foolish person in the family. If she knew, she would definitely show him what a tigress she was.
Because she didn't know, the two of them spent a passionate night together.
Tang Baozhu initially thought of not sending them anything, hoping they would keep a low profile and not be taken advantage of by others.
Later, Feng Yi urged them several times, and she was also worried that life in the countryside would be too hard. After all, she had been to the countryside before and knew how hard farming was. She couldn't help herself and started sending them things less than half a month after she arrived in the countryside.
Beautiful fabrics, delicious candies, and all kinds of cured meats and sausages—even shoes and gloves for when they finish work—were all packed up, worried that they wouldn't have enough meat to eat in the countryside and would starve themselves. We stuffed a big bag full of these things and mailed them to them.
Seeing all this, Feng Yi felt it was a bit unnecessary, but it was still a token of his wife's affection. He had been training the twins for many years and knew they were very skilled. As long as they went to the countryside where there were rivers and deep mountains, they would never lack meat.
Tang Baozhu maintained a pace of sending them a package every month for two years until they finally got their family visit leave and could come back to celebrate the Chinese New Year with their whole family.
I hadn't seen my beloved son and daughter for over two years. At first, I missed them quite a bit, but after a couple of days, they seemed no different from usual. In particular, they hadn't lost any weight; on the contrary, they had grown taller and stronger.
Even his daughter became stronger, which is quite in line with the aesthetics of this era, but there is always an awkward feeling. She had trained at home for so many years and had not become stronger, so how did she become stronger after only two years in the countryside?
After carefully inquiring about their situation and confirming that they hadn't been bullied in the countryside, I finally felt relieved. I was especially happy to learn from them that the two siblings were eating alone.
This way there won't be so many conflicts, because there are a lot of conflicts when you're eating from the same pot. If you don't gather enough firewood, people will complain; if you contribute less food, people will complain; and even if you cook late, people will complain.
It's much better for two people to eat alone, even if it's a little more work, than to mix things up together.
After spending the New Year at home, I was worried that they weren't eating well, so I went up into the mountains to hunt two wild boars to give them some nourishment. But in the end, I realized that it wasn't them who needed the nourishment, but rather myself.
Although that's what they said, they still fed them big meals of meat and fish every day, hoping they would eat to their heart's content so they wouldn't crave meat in the countryside.
They also specially smoked a lot of cured pork and sausages so that they could take them back with them when they went to the countryside after the New Year, enough to last them for a whole year.
When the college entrance examination was allowed in 1977, the triplets were only 13 years old. They were very disappointed when they heard that they no longer had to go to the countryside after the exam. They felt regretful that they hadn't been able to stay with their older siblings for a while.
Tang Baozhu and Feng Yi were not worried about their two children's grades at all. They simply sent them all their old books and even found some extra textbooks available on the market.
I wrote a letter specifically instructing them to cook their own food and bring their own water, not to eat anything given to them by others, and to try to book a room in advance so that there wouldn't be too many people sharing a room and they wouldn't have a good night's rest.
Tang Baozhu felt that she was never this worried when her children took exams. She was always worried that her two children would be cheated or tricked by others when they took exams.
Fortunately, after worrying for more than a month, I received a letter from them saying that they had done very well on the exam and that they would prepare to come back after the results came out. They had all applied to schools in Beijing, which would be closer to home.
After Tang Baozhu learned that they were coming back, she couldn't stay at home. She went to the city almost every day to see if there were any houses for sale near the school.
When I first started living in the military area, I never thought about buying a house outside, because houses were hard to buy back then.
But now more and more people are being exonerated and a lot of houses and shops have been returned. Some families are worried that they will have to live like this again and don't want to live in fear anymore, so they are thinking of selling those houses and shops and going abroad.
In recent years, although Tang Baozhu has never been to the black market or thought about making money, she has saved a lot of Feng Yi's salary.
Moreover, those who are going abroad don't need much money; what they need most is gold, and Tang Baozhu has the most of that.
Over several worlds, the five puppets have collected countless amounts of gold, jewels, and medicinal herbs. Especially now that they can't go anywhere, she simply releases the five puppets and sends them to places with diamond and jade mines.
Since it's not in her own country, she might as well benefit herself rather than let others benefit. Her favorite thing is to hoard all sorts of things, and even though she already has a lot, she still unconsciously wants to hoard more.
Tang Baozhu initially looked at houses near schools, especially those famous schools that were well-known even in later generations. Later, as she looked around, she also found those courtyard houses quite beautiful.
Thinking about being a landlady in this world seems pretty good. She's bought a lot of houses and shops, and has five children in total. That way, when it comes time to divide the inheritance among them, she can get a bigger share and make their lives a little easier.
Once their acceptance letters arrived, the first thing they did was buy train tickets to come home. After returning home, once Tang Baozhu learned which school they had been accepted to, she quickly bought the houses she had her eye on near the school. These were multi-courtyard houses, and although the prices were very cheap now, they would be worth hundreds of millions in the future, instantly making her a rich woman.
However, when they returned this time, Feng Zhiyuan brought a girl with him. The girl looked delicate and frail, like a typical innocent white lotus flower, and Tang Baozhu didn't like her at first sight.
Especially his eyes, which darted around everywhere, something only Feng Zhiyuan, currently in love, couldn't see.
Even Feng Aizhu said that she didn't like this girl either. They were all girls who went to the countryside in the same place, so who didn't know who?
When she went to the countryside, she started clinging to her older brother. It was only because her family sent her so many things every month that they knew she must be well-off, which is why she kept pestering him.
