We are all adults anyway, and the county town is not big, so we won’t get lost.
Shi Zhentang said, "That's great, and this opportunity is quite rare."
"That's right. Third brother and eldest brother have plenty of energy anyway. They must be looking forward to such an opportunity." After saying that, Tian Yuzhu began to pack her things. She had to take Shi Zhentang's clothes back to wash. Besides, it was almost time, so she had to go to the grocery store to buy some afternoon food.
I asked Li Shengli to take care of it while I went to do my work.
Li Shengli said stiffly, "Okay, take care, sister-in-law."
Tian Yuzhu: “…”
After walking out of the ward, she thought for a moment, wondering what was wrong with Shengli today. Why was he so weird?
Forget it, don’t think too much about it, she still has a lot of things to do!
In the ward, Li Shengli peeked at the door frame for a while, and only closed the ward door quickly after he was sure that Tian Yuzhu had gone downstairs.
Shi Zhentang frowned at his sneaky look and asked, "Is there something going on in the army?"
If it wasn't a secret, why would you close the door?
Li Shengli shook his head and said, "I don't know what's going on in the army right now, brother, but there's something I need to talk to you about."
"What's up?"
"Brother, I...don't get excited when I tell you."
"What is it? Tell me, let's see what you can do. Is there anything else that can excite me?"
Li Shengli only gritted his teeth and pondered for a moment: "Brother, do you know who I met when I went to the rental house?"
Shi Zhentang was a little impatient: "If you have something to say, just say it. If you have something to say, just fart. You keep making me guess when you'll finish your words. Hurry up."
"Then I'll tell you..."
Anyway, it's a knife to get out of your head or hide your head, Li Shengli felt that this matter must be resolved, so he might as well say it directly.
So, he told Shi Zhentang everything he had encountered in the rental house, including what the three thugs had said.
But after he finished speaking, the other person's face was as calm as before: "Is that all?"
Li Shengli was stunned. "No, brother, you know how good my sister-in-law is at fighting? She's just a woman from a mountain village. She hasn't received any special training. How can she be so good at fighting? Do you think that's normal?"
"So what you mean is that you think it's abnormal?" A fierce look flashed in Shi Zhentang's calm eyes.
"No, no, no, brother, you can't take this matter personally. You have to think about it from a soldier's perspective. My sister-in-law is so good at fighting. Did she receive any special training?"
"Are you suspecting Yuzhu is an enemy spy?"
“…”
Li Shengli froze.
To say he hadn't thought about it would be a lie. When he learned that Tian Yuzhu was fighting ten people alone, his thoughts had already shifted towards this. But when faced with Shi Zhentang's questioning, he could only answer, "I hope not."
"Good boy, you really like the food she cooks so much." Shi Zhentang sneered.
Li Shengli laughed so hard that he felt guilty: "Brother, of course I hope my suspicion is wrong, my sister-in-law..."
Shi Zhentang interrupted him calmly: "If you don't believe that Yuzhu is good at fighting, you can call Quanshui Village and ask. And I can tell you for sure that she was not as stupid as everyone imagined before she came to our Shi family. There was another reason."
What's the reason?
Li Shengli listened with great tension.
Shi Zhentang slowly explained, "Actually, after Yuzhu became smarter, I consulted an old doctor. He said she wasn't stupid, but had a mental problem. After coming to our Shi family, her condition improved, which is why she learns things so quickly. Including her fighting skills, she actually learned them secretly from the village hunters when she was at her mother's house, and she memorized them."
Shi Zhentang still found it funny at this point: "If you don't believe me, go ask the third brother. He'd be too embarrassed to say that even a guy as big as him couldn't beat Yuzhu, let alone those little hooligans on the street."
"So that's how it is." After hearing this, Li Shengli felt a little embarrassed: "Brother, I am narrow-minded."
"It's good to be a little vigilant, but it's not good to just blindly assume someone is an enemy spy."
Shi Zhentang spoke seriously, but in fact his heart was already in turmoil.
He had no idea that his wife had beaten up ten thugs, and he found it unbelievable.
But when Li Shengli asked, his only thought was that no matter what happened to his wife, he had only one purpose in his heart, which was to protect her without hesitation.
"Yes, I know I was wrong, brother." Li Shengli quickly apologized: "But you must not tell my sister-in-law about this, otherwise she will be unhappy and I won't be able to eat the food she cooks!"
Shi Zhentang glanced at him coldly and said, "If you say something like this again, don't come to my house for dinner."
Well!
Li Shengli was suddenly at a loss.
He went from being skeptical at first to now suddenly understanding that everyone has their own strengths.
My sister-in-law must have been bullied a lot when she was at her parents' home. It makes sense that she learned the methods of beating people over time.
Besides, since they had already knocked down Shi Lao San, it would be no problem for them to beat up a few thugs.
The problem at the moment was that he had offended someone, so he quickly said, "No, no, no, brother, I swear, if I say something like this again, I will be a puppy. You have to help me, brother, and don't let my sister-in-law know about it no matter what."
Shi Zhentang was speechless: "You really are..."
Neither of them knew that a beautiful figure quietly flashed past outside the ward.
When Tian Yuzhu walked to the road, she found that she had forgotten to take a cup, so she turned back.
She found that the door of the ward was closed, and she felt strange so she listened in.
Although Li Shengli and Shi Zhentang spoke softly, she could hear most of what they said.
My mind went blank...
Shi Zhentang clearly didn't know that she had beaten up those thugs, but now he pretended not to be surprised at all to help cover it up for her.
Why?
This only shows that Shi Zhentang had actually suspected her for a long time, so he was mentally prepared enough and was not surprised at all when Li Shengli said it.
He calmly helped her cover.
Oh no, what should I do next?
Tian Yuzhu came to her senses at this moment. Shi Zhentang was not an ordinary soldier. He had top-notch skills in all aspects of the army. How could he not see her flaws?
She still thinks she is acting very naturally.
What should I do? Should I confess to him?
But as a person born in the 1970s, can he accept this seemingly absurd statement?
If he doesn't believe it, where will their future go?
While walking, Tian Yuzhu, who was in a daze, almost bumped into someone. The other person quickly moved aside and said, "Watch the road, Yuzhu."
She raised her eyes: "Uncle?"
The one-eyed man hadn't shown up for several days. He rushed to Laowu Village to act as a matchmaker and find raw stones for Tian Yuzhu.
When Tian Yuzhu saw him, she immediately perked up: "How's it going?"
"Okay, we've made an appointment to go to Awu Village tomorrow to check out the goods."
