Jiang Dahai always wanted to talk to his sister, but when he saw her go into the room and didn't come out last night, he didn't disturb her.
At this moment, seeing that she had prepared breakfast, several people sat at the dining table. Jiang Dahai said, "Cuihua, I know what you are thinking. You and your sister-in-law also saw it yesterday.
From now on, put your worries aside, the couple is living a good life.
We'll talk about it later when we meet the right person. You're not a little girl anymore. Be careful with your words and actions and don't always go to other people's homes."
Jiang Cuihua paused with her chopsticks in her hand, then put down her bowl and chopsticks, tears welling up in her eyes.
She knew it was embarrassing, but she just wouldn't give up yesterday.
She is not bad, she just has a bad fate.
Xu Zhaodi is different. Apart from being a little prettier than me, how can that woman compare to me?
Brother Chen is such a good man, how could he marry such a lazy and ignorant tiger?
Jiang Cuihua was unwilling, but in front of her elder brother, she could only endure it.
At this moment, she had her head bowed very low.
She felt like her face was being torn off again.
Jiang Cuihua started crying again. Jiang Dahai felt annoyed and didn't even eat a few bites of breakfast. He got up, took his hat and went out.
As Jiang Dahai walked out of the door, he saw Chen Jianguo coming down the stairs with a rosy face, and smiled, "Hey, Old Chen, what good thing has happened to you again?"
Chen Jianguo glared at him. Jiang Dahai looked around, then whispered into Chen Jianguo's ear with a smile, "Did you have meat last night?"
Thinking about what happened last night, his face flushed and he quickened his pace.
Jiang Dahai: "Hey... I asked you a question, why are you running so fast?"
Chen Jianguo was in a good mood originally, but he felt extremely bad when asked this question.
Jiang Dahai wondered whether the dish was meat or not.
He caught up with her and said, "Walk slower, I have something to tell you."
"What do you want to say?"
Chen Jianguo really found this guy annoying, especially his mouth. He was always looking for opportunities to make fun of him.
Jiang Dahai: "My sister came to your house yesterday. Did she cause you any trouble?"
When Chen Jianguo heard that he was going to bring up what happened yesterday, he stopped immediately.
"If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten about it. Your wife brought your sister to my house last night and scolded my wife as soon as she entered the door. I almost couldn't explain it to my wife.
Go back and tell your sister to be more careful next time.
I don’t want my wife to misunderstand me. I have worked so hard to coax her into submission.”
Jiang Dahai was also embarrassed, but they had a good relationship, so some things were said openly.
"You kid, why haven't I seen you pamper your wife before?"
"The past was the past, and the present is the present."
"I know. I've already told her about it during breakfast. For my sake, please don't be angry."
Chen Jianguo snorted coldly and said, "That's more like it."
Jiang Dahai said: "Okay, okay, don't be angry, I'll treat you and Lao Zhang to dinner some other day."
As the two men talked, they walked towards the training ground.
Xu Zhaodi was walking on the road in the county town with Jiang Wan. Jiang Wan saw a red mark on Xu Zhaodi's neck and looked at it with wide eyes.
"Sister Zhaodi, what's that on your neck? Were you bitten by a mosquito last night?"
"Ah? What did you say?"
"There are red marks on your neck. They don't look like mosquito bites. There are several of them."
Xu Zhaodi reacted and recalled what happened last night. She subconsciously put her hand to cover her neck.
Why didn't she think that there would be traces left last night?
"This must be a bug bite."
Jiang Wan looked innocent and said, "I have some Fengyoujing at home. I'll give it to you when I come back in the evening."
Xu Zhaodi was a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say for a moment, so she tugged at the collar of her shirt.
Jiang Wan muttered to the side: "It's strange, there are no mosquitoes in Zhang Qingdong's room."
Xu Zhaodi didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
The members of the roadside village have begun to harvest rapeseed. In the fields, there are many strong men wearing straw hats and sleeveless white coats working hard.
There were some middle-aged men in white shirts and trousers.
You can't help but know that they are educated youth who went to the countryside to work.
Xu Zhaodi thought, if she could hold on for a few more months, her fate would soon change.
Xu Zhaodi came to the restaurant. She soaked the soybeans when she left last night. He Damei had already ground the soybeans to make tofu pudding.
Xu Zhaodi picked some wild mint from the river and brought it back. After the soy milk in the pot boiled, He Damei added the mint water into it, and then added the mint water into the soy milk. After a while of boiling, it solidified into tofu pudding.
The weather is hot now and they are worried about cooking.
At noon, the tofu pudding was sold out, and Xu Zhaodi was thinking of Chen Jianguo.
After Chen Jianguo came back this time, he ate noodles every day, and Xu Zhaodi felt bad about it.
Xu Zhaodi thought that she would make dumplings for him when she returned home tonight.
She didn't realize at all that her heart was getting closer to Chen Jianguo little by little.
Zhang Guilan saw Xu Zhaodi in a daze and said with a smile: "Xiao Xu, what are you thinking about?
What's wrong with your neck?"
Xu Zhaodi tugged at her collar and said with a smile, "I was bitten by a mosquito."
"Don't be in a daze, come and get your salary."
Xu Zhaodi was delighted. Time passed so quickly. She had been working in the restaurant for more than two months.
Xu Zhaodi was very happy when she received the forty yuan.
She earned this money with great difficulty, a little over one yuan a day, which was used to pay for three meals a day. In such hot weather, her clothes would get soaked twice a day.
When I was able to make money in the past, I spent money like a flood. Now that I can make money again, I want to split every penny into several parts to spend.
Zhang Guilan smiled and said, "Hurry up and buy a bottle of Fengyoujing. Look at the mosquito bites on your neck."
Xu Zhaodi: They are having a hard time with themselves, right?
Her face turned red and she smiled: "I'll do it right away."
She bought a box of foundation from the supply and marketing cooperative next door. In those days, foundation was packed in an iron box. A box of foundation cost 80 cents and could last for two years.
She was satisfied only after she applied powder to cover the marks on her neck.
Chen Jianguo received a notice in the afternoon that they would be leaving tonight after a meeting at the provincial government early the next morning.
After get off work, he rode his bike to the county town. The supply and marketing cooperative was still open at that time, so he went in and spent three yuan to buy himself a pair of cheap leather shoes.
The first pair of shoes I wore for eight or nine years, the leather on the toes is almost peeling off.
There was a meeting to be held in the city this time, and the political commissar was very concerned. He couldn't embarrass the political commissar, nor could he be laughed at.
The team distributed the uniforms before, but he was reluctant to wear them and mailed them back to his brother. He hasn't received the uniforms this year yet.
He wanted to buy some clothes for Xu Zhaodi, and after looking around the supply and marketing cooperative, he didn't see any styles he liked.
His eyes fell on the white leather shoes on the shelf behind the salesperson. Without thinking twice, he spent eight yuan to buy Xu Zhaodi a pair of cowhide shoes from Haishi.
Chen Jianguo was waiting for her under a big tree beside the restaurant, holding his leather shoes. Xu Zhaodi had just finished get off work and came out of the restaurant when she saw Chen Jianguo's tall figure pacing back and forth under a big tree, looking worried.
Xu Zhaodi didn't expect that he came so early today.
Perhaps it was psychological induction. When Chen Jianguo raised his head, he met Xu Zhaodi's black and white skirt. With happy eyes, he strode towards Xu Zhaodi.
