Chapter 186: Then you can marry a chicken!
She knew Zhao Chunni had no ill intentions, but she just felt a little sad.
From ancient times to modern times, and then to the modern times in which she lives, women have always been like appendages of men. Although men and women are said to be equal in modern times, women are still discriminated against in society. The idea that women are inferior to men is deeply engraved in the hearts of many people.
Just like what Zhao Chunni said just now, if she and Lu Beiye had a daughter, she would definitely not be of age yet, and the threshold of their house would be trampled down by people looking for marriage proposals. Does a girl's excellence have to be reflected by men's love?
Can't a good girl be capable, talented, and thoughtful? Does she have to have many men proposing to her to prove her excellence?
When Zhao Chunni saw Wen Jiu frowning, her heart skipped a beat. Did she say something wrong and made Wen Jiu unhappy?
She had not known Wenjiu for a long time and did not know much about him. In addition, Wenjiu was the commander's daughter and the boss who would pay her in the future, so she was inevitably a little timid when speaking.
"I see that you don't look very well. Did I say something wrong?" Zhao Chunni asked cautiously while looking at Wen Jiu.
Wen Jiu quickly said, "No, no, it has nothing to do with you, sister-in-law. I just think that my body is not well yet, and I feel a little regretful that I can't have a child for the time being."
It's not Zhao Chunni who is wrong, it's the idea of male superiority and female inferiority that has existed since ancient times.
Even with the development of modern technology, there are still many people who think that menstruation is unlucky for women and that it will bring bad luck to men.
Fortunately, Lu Beiye did not.
When she was menstruating, the bloodstained sheets and clothes were all washed by Lu Beiye by hand. Thinking of this, she felt a little comforted while warming the wine.
Change doesn't happen overnight, and her abilities are limited, so she can only do as much as she can.
"So that's how it is!"
Zhao Chunni breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "You and Captain Lu are still young. It is important to take care of your health first. There is no rush to have a child."
"Yeah, that's what my sister-in-law said."
Wen was drinking wine and talking to Zhao Chunni. Sun Mingzhu would occasionally chat with them and tease Weiwei by looking at her cute dimples. She didn't even notice how time passed quickly when she heard her cheerful laughter. By the time she realized what was happening, it was already getting dark outside.
Zhao Chunni's mother-in-law was outside cleaning the mud off her feet before walking home. When she saw Wen Jiu, she slapped her thigh and said with a smile, "You are the daughter-in-law of Captain Lu, right? You can tell from her appearance that she is a lovely girl. I just came back and heard your Captain Lu asking about you to Platoon Leader Zhao's family!"
Wenjiu stood up quickly and said, "Auntie, Sister Chunni, Sister Mingzhu, I'm leaving first. My Captain Lu is looking for me!" After she said that, she ran out in a hurry.
Damn it!
How could I have forgotten about it?
It's already this time.
Wen Jiu just walked into the yard and ran into Lu Beiye who was coming back from Ge Yueji's house and was about to go to Zhao Chunni's house.
"It's already evening and you haven't gone home yet. Are you a three-year-old kid who doesn't know his home?" Lu Beiye reached out and grabbed Wen Jiu and walked towards home.
Wen Jiu stuck out his tongue playfully, "With you around, I am just a three-year-old child, right? I am not afraid even if I get lost, because I know you will definitely come to pick me up and take me home.
Lu Beiye's lips curled up slightly, and a smile flickered in his deep black eyes, "What if I don't come to pick you up?"
"Um……"
Wenjiu shook Lu Beiye's arm, pretended to think distressedly for a few seconds, and then said: "Then I will be someone else's wife!"
"You wish!"
Lu Beiye pinched the fingers that were warming the wine, "Stop messing with me! Have you taken the medicine? Have you finished your meal?"
"I took the medicine."
"I haven't finished my meal yet."
The amount of food I eat while drinking warm wine is average, and I can’t eat much food after drinking a bowl of medicine.
"Chicken eats more than you do!"
"Dislike me? Then go marry a prostitute!" Wenjiu pouted and wrinkled her fair face to express her dissatisfaction.
Lu Beiye took Wen Jiu home, patted her butt and said helplessly: "Nonsense!"
How could he marry a chicken?
"What do you want to eat tonight? I'll make it. I have to go to the army for duty later."
"What shift are you on?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Huaishan came in with a swagger, punched his chest with his fist and winked ambiguously, "How can I let you be on duty when I have my brother here! What if my sister-in-law is scared at home?"
"I will take your place on duty from now on!"
Lu Beiye narrowed his eyes, "Tell me! What's your plan?"
If someone is diligent and attentive for no reason, he is either a traitor or a thief!
Xia Huaishan chuckled twice and looked at Wen Jiu with a wronged look on his face. "Sister-in-law, see how wary my brother Lu is of me? It's outrageous. I just made a small request, but he actually looked at me like an enemy!"
Wen Jiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "It's okay, I'll help you condemn him!"
"My sister-in-law is still the best!"
Xia Huaishan cheered happily and gave Lu Beiye a provocative look.
“I want to cook!”
"If you have nothing to do, get out!"
Lu Beiye is so rude and shameless to pretend to be pitiful to his wife!
"Cooking? Just right, Brother Lu, what do you think of the clothes I'm wearing today? Don't they fit me well and make me look handsome? Do they make me look wise and powerful? Since I'm so handsome and considerate of you, can you let me come to your house for meals in the future?" Xia Huaishan praised himself nonstop. If he hadn't seen Lu Beiye's disdainful look, he probably wouldn't have gotten straight to the point so quickly.
Lu Beiye scanned him carefully from head to toe twice, "The clothes are nice."
"The face doesn't match!"
After he finished speaking, he went to the kitchen. He did not inform Xia Huaishan to have a free meal, nor did he say that he disagreed.
"Sister-in-law, what does my brother Lu mean?"
Xia Huaishan was a little confused, but it was not his fault that he did not understand Lu Beiye. It was really that Lu Beiye's temper had changed faster in recent months than in the previous five or six years.
Wen Jiu joked, "You've often come to our house for meals without asking us to come! Come over anytime you want!"
"Sister-in-law welcomes you!"
"The clothes are nice, the face is nice too, and the outfit is even better. It's okay." After Wenjiu praised Xia Huaishan in all aspects, he also raised two thumbs up to him.
Xia Huaishan's mouth was grinning to the back of his ears. "It fits me perfectly and is very comfortable. I haven't worn anything this comfortable in years."
The clothes were all made by He Rongrong, and he had no chance to wear them in the army. He put them on after taking a shower at night and was reluctant to take them off, so he simply ran to Lu Beiye and Wen Jiu to have a free meal and ask for compliments.
He was separated from his family when he was fifteen, and joined the army when he had no food to eat and nowhere else to go.
"That's good."
Wen Jiu nodded, "Rong Rong will definitely be happy if she knows this."
"Sister-in-law, are you going to visit her soon? I want you to bring something to her." Xia Huaishan took out an earring from his pocket. "She made so many clothes for me. I think I should thank her."
"I saw the nice earrings in the captain's pocket, so I asked my comrades to help me buy a pair."
This was a poor excuse, because Wen Jiu knew that he liked He Rongrong. Xia Huaishan, who was never shy, had red ears this time and didn't dare to look at her for fear of being rejected.
