Chapter 149 His Responsibility
Wang Xinxin took the apple that Su Tang had cut and took small bites of it.
She didn't ask any more questions. At this point, she felt that her cousin's wife was right and she should just do whatever she wanted.
There's no point in thinking so much. It's better to think about what she will do next.
So after that, Wang Xinxin rarely met Chen Zhengnian again.
Chen Zhengnian naturally realized that Wang Xinxin was deliberately avoiding him.
He didn't understand why Wang Xinxin was avoiding him.
But he couldn't bring himself to go find Wang Xinxin.
After a while, the two people started to get along like strangers.
It's like going back to the time before liberation.
After a while, Su Tang's pregnancy gradually became worse and it became inconvenient for her to move.
Su Tang hadn't heard from Su Xinyao for a long time and almost forgot about her.
So when Su Tang remembered it that day, he called his parents in Shanghai.
Coincidentally, the person who answered the phone was Aunt Su Su Yufen.
"Is that Tangtang? Your parents are out right now. I'll call you back when they come back."
"No need, auntie. I'm calling to see you. I want to ask if Su Ruian has been in Shanghai recently."
After hearing Su Tang's words, Su Yufen was a little confused, but still replied.
"Yes, your father asked someone to find him a job at the school. Now he goes to and from get off work with your father every day."
"What's wrong, Tangtang, do you need something from him?"
After hearing Su Yufen's words, Su Tang nodded and replied, "It's okay, auntie. Just stay at home and be well."
"Aunt, please keep an eye on Su Ruiang. He was hanging out with Su Xinyao before. Don't let him get involved with Su Xinyao again."
With Su Tang's words, Su Yufen naturally agreed.
After hanging up the phone, Su Tang felt much more at ease.
While thinking about this, she suddenly heard thunder outside. As she walked over, a strong wind blew towards her.
The scratches made her unable to stand steadily.
Fortunately, Lu Xiao came home at this time, went forward to support her and closed the window.
"Are you okay?"
"Nothing, why are you home so early today?"
As they were talking, Mr. and Mrs. Lu came back carrying a bunch of things.
"I heard it was going to rain heavily, so your dad and I went out to buy some extra things. You don't know, everyone went crazy grabbing them."
In this part of the northwest, once it rains, it is heavy rain, and sometimes there are thunderstorms and hail.
This is no joke.
"I came back to talk about this. I have to go to the front line. Mom and Dad, please take good care of Tangtang."
Lu Xiao would never hide anything from Su Tang, let alone such a big thing.
When Su Tang heard that Lu Xiao was going to the front line to fight floods and disaster relief, he frowned.
But he is a soldier, and this is his duty.
It is his responsibility to defend his country.
Su Tang didn't say much, but turned back to the room and packed a lot of things for Lu Xiao.
There are also some medicines among them.
"Be sure to come back safely."
Su Tang held Lu Xiao's hand, reluctant to let go.
Although the plot supports it, saying that once Lu Xiao successfully overcomes this incident, he will be promoted and get a raise, Su Tang is still worried.
"Don't worry, I will be back safely. Stay home and don't run around."
After the couple finished talking, Lu Xiao left.
Not long after, Wang Xinxin also came back in the heavy rain.
Wang Xinxin sneezed as soon as she entered the door, and the rain all over her body flowed down the corners of her clothes, forming a small puddle on the floor.
She shook her wet hair, a look of embarrassment on her face, and a chill in her voice: "This rain is too weird. It's like pouring down as soon as I go out. The umbrella can't stop it at all."
Su Tang quickly asked Lu Ma to bring a dry towel over, and slowly stood up, holding her waist. "Why don't you wait and come back in such heavy rain? What if you catch a cold?"
Wang Xinxin took the towel and wiped her cheeks carelessly. The tip of her nose was red from the cold. "How dare I wait? The radio said the rain might last for several days. I was afraid you guys were short of something, so I bought some things at the commune."
As she spoke, she bent down and picked up the bag at her feet, which contained a few packets of noodles and milk, as well as a few boxes of common cold medicine.
Mother Lu sighed at the side: "This child is so thoughtful."
Wang Xinxin felt a little embarrassed by what she said and scratched her head: "My cousin's wife is pregnant, so she needs to get enough nutrition. Oh, where's my brother? I didn't seem to see him just now."
When Lu Xiao was mentioned, the smile on Su Tang's face faded a little: "He went to the front line to fight the flood and disaster relief."
Wang Xinxin held the towel, her eyes suddenly widening. "Going to the front line in such heavy rain? That would be so dangerous!"
"Is the situation over there bad right now?"
Su Tang shook his head slightly, trying to sound calmer. "He didn't say much when he left, just told us to stay home. As a soldier, this is what we should do."
Wang Xinxin stood up and said in a low voice, "How about I sleep with my cousin's wife tonight? My aunt and uncle are old, and I can still help if anything happens at night."
Su Tang looked at the rolling dark clouds outside the window, and the raindrops hit the glass with crackling sounds.
She nodded and said calmly, "Okay, I'm also a little afraid of thunder."
Wang Xinxin sat aside and suddenly thought of Chen Zhengnian.
She saw him when she went out in the morning.
Since her cousin went, Chen Zhengnian should go too.
"I never thought it could rain so heavily in this place."
The rain showed no sign of letting up, but instead got heavier.
It feels like the ground has been soaked with medicine.
No one was sleepy and they gathered in the living room talking.
Lu's mother said she hadn't seen such heavy rain in decades.
I originally thought that sandstorms were common in the northwest.
"Oh, by the way, Xinxin, did you meet the person who proposed a blind date to you later in your commune?"
As they were talking, somehow the topic turned back to Wang Xinxin.
Wang Xinxin shook her head: "I don't even know who that person is. He doesn't even dare to show his face, and he still dares to mention a blind date."
These domineering words made Lu Ma and Su Tang laugh.
But it's also true that if he doesn't even dare to say who he is, who would want to be with him?
"Mom, you should go and rest. I don't think this rain will stop. How can you make it through the night?"
"What are you afraid of? I'm in good health. But you're pregnant. Go to sleep."
After saying that, Mother Lu helped Su Tang to rest.
After the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had been arguing for a while, Wang Xinxin interrupted them and asked them to go to bed.
"I'm waiting here for news from my uncle, you guys go to bed."
Wang Xinxin stood up and pushed the two people into the house.
Just then, everyone's conversation was interrupted by a rapid knock on the door, and Dad Lu was standing at the door wearing a raincoat.
"The radio said the rain is too heavy and there's a mudslide coming..."
Hearing this, Lu Ma's eyes almost went dark.
mudslide?
That's as terrible as a flood.
"Don't panic, Dad. What did the radio say? Is there any organization for us to move?"
