Xu Sui didn't notice 놛's gaze.

Perhaps it was because Lu Chenghuai often kept his eyes on her during the day, except at night when the two of them read the latest newspapers together, but he would also stay close to her.

She's used to it.

It seemed that the two of them did not need to discuss housework specifically. She cooked, swept the floor, washed dishes and clothes, and did things that required touching cold water and physical work spontaneously. She never needed to be urged.

As for storage and organization, she is definitely not as good as 놛.

In fact, in the family compound, no matter what the living habits of each military wife are, the house is very tidy. Not to mention anything else, things are not messy, and it looks very comfortable.

Xu Sui used to fold the clothes she received, but she stopped doing that after Lu Chenghuai rearranged the clothes she had put away.

They all have their own jobs, but Xu Sui's is definitely easier. She won't take on all the housework, nor will she do it all by herself.

In her spare time, she would do things that interested her, such as mathematics or drawing maps, for which she even bought two rolls of kraft paper.

But maybe the comfort of life made her forget it. Even though no one on the island had ever interacted with her except Xu Mian, and she didn't know her original personality, her performance was a little too abrupt compared to others.

Lu Chenghuai already had many doubts in his mind, but he just didn't make them clear.

The arrival of the delegation did leave some ripples after all.

Xu Sui was not affected. It seemed that several girls from the visiting group had contacted the young officers in the army, including one who had come to dinner last time.

This should have been a romantic encounter. The girl from the visiting group and the single young officer almost hit it off immediately.

But there were also some unsatisfactory things. There were many girls in the consolation group, and there were always two girls with different thoughts.

When Xu Sui went to her sister's house, she heard Xu Mian complaining.

Of course, she felt relieved to say this because Tuantuan and Yuanyuan had gone out to play with their friends and there were only the two of them at home.

Xu Mian complained: "I can guess why that girl is eyeing your brother-in-law. First, he holds a high position and she can live a good life if she gets married. Second, I gave birth to Tuantuan and Yuanyuan. They all think the same. Without a son, the chances are better."

"Look, they are obviously living a good life now. Compared with our team and the girls near home, why are their minds not as open-minded as our parents? Great people say that women can hold up half the sky, but they have the ability, but they want to do this unorthodox thing."

"What are you talking about? Your brother-in-law is the only one suffering in the army, so he is a hero. If I had been able to join the industrial group, I would never have married so early. It is so rare to have such a good rank and get the opportunity to rise. "

Xu Mian finished this long speech in one breath and drank all the water on the table.

From what Xu Sui could see, she just complained a lot, and she wasn't very angry.

This was also the reason why Xu Bing did not show any good face to this matter. Xu Sui heard about this from her military wife after get off work, so she did not go home but went to Xu Mian's house.

However, there were other families who had similar experiences. When those military wives who had nothing to do with the matter discussed it, they were envious of Xu Mian, and felt some sympathy for the other two families, as well as a little panic as if the rabbit had died and the fox had grieved for the other.

Although the men from the other two families did not have much contact with the proactive and enthusiastic girl, they did not know how to refuse.

The two families had already started arguing, and the children of one family were frightened and crying.

Xu Sui said: "Because some things come easily, we don't know how to cherish them."

Is it hard for the girls in the KO? Of course it is hard.

From the moment they enter, everyone has to face the pressure of elimination. They have to practice hard, strive to achieve and perform well. Those who just want to muddle through will definitely not stay there for long.

Therefore, those who can stay are all talented and hardworking girls.

But compared to these other women, they are much better off. There is no need to explain the situation in rural areas, where some are betrothed at the age of five or six. The situation in cities is not much better. They have fewer resources and opportunities because they are basically from large families. When they reach a certain age, they either get married or go to the countryside. Occasionally, there are a few lucky ones.

Those ambitious girls with no moral bottom line, they have careers and honors, but they still want to take shortcuts. This is their choice.

This was the only thing that made Xu Mian angry. "That's right, I still remember that girl. She danced really well and was pretty, but why did she have such a thought...ah."

She sighed and continued, "Sui Sui, we are so lucky. Not only do we have the opportunity to study, but our parents and grandpa are all upright people. I still remember when I was a child, I often saw mom coming home in a bad mood, and she was angry when she had to solve other people's problems in the team and couldn't say anything.

"After that, I disciplined my child. My mother was rarely affected by these things because she had seen so many of them. She knew that no matter how much she persuaded and educated her child, it would still be the same. It is better to set the rules directly. Filial piety does not mean domestic violence. Some punishment measures are better than saying a thousand words."

"But mom still educates us often. I know that grandparents don't like mom. She learned her ideas from reading newspapers with dad. But it is also because of this that our lives are different from other families."

Zhang Yunxiu's relatives from her mother's side basically don't visit her. In Xu Sui's memory, sometimes people from there would come on their own initiative, but Zhang Yunxiu never let them into the yard. However, she also never said bad things about them to her children.

Xu Sui held Xu Mian's hand and said, "Sister, we can't change other people's minds, but from our perspective, things will definitely get better and better. Look at the family compound, boys and girls go to school equally. After our team primary school was built, Dad also made sure that all those who were of the right age could go to school, and the tuition was paid by the team."

This was written in a letter from home last month. Xu Hongjun made a contribution to the team, which was to outsource some odd jobs in the factory to the Qingshan team.

This income certainly cannot be counted as personal income, it can only be counted as team income. To find out the bottom line, Xu Changgen directly held a meeting and asked everyone to vote on whether it was okay to take a portion of the bottom line to do the children's tuition.

More than half agreed.

Xu Mian was still happy when she thought about it. "You are too young to know, but your brother was very smart when he was young. He used to go fishing or dig mudskippers in the fields, and then walk an hour or two to sell them to passing truck drivers."

"But it was later that he ran into that guy. Not only could he not study, but he also dug up all the grass roots. When life got better, he was not allowed to do business. Your brother's temper gradually calmed down."
