Ye Zhi opened the letter from Ye Hongying only after she returned home.
Ye Zhi thought about it over and over but couldn't guess what this cousin, who had always been at odds with her, wanted to talk to her about.
She pulled the letter out of the envelope and read it quickly.
At the beginning, she affectionately called her sister. Ye Zhi recalled that this seemed to be the first time Ye Hongying called her sister.
The letter began by asking her how she was doing on Qiongzhou Island.
Then the next two whole pages were devoted to talking about how happy her current marriage was, how Gao Wenbo cared for her and doted on her, and how happy her life was now.
The letter also mentioned Gao Wenbo's children. Ye Hongying said that although they were very naughty at the beginning, they have been well-behaved and sensible in the past few months and can help her with housework.
Ye Zhi read all the way through but still couldn't figure out what was going on.
What is this for?
Share every bit of your life with her?
It seems that the relationship between them cannot reach this friendly level.
Not to mention how excessive Ye Hongying's mother was when she got married, even if we don't mention this, the original owner and Ye Hongying didn't get along well before.
Because the two are cousins and were born in the same year and month, only two days apart, they have been compared to each other since they were young.
There is no comparison when we were kids, we were all just kids.
But as she grew older, the original owner became tall and beautiful, and her smile could make young men from all over the place fall in love with her. Ye Hongying began to become jealous.
She would often join other girls from other villages to ostracize her, and sometimes she would gossip about the original owner behind her back, saying bad things to hurt her reputation.
Fortunately, her mother Zhang Xiaomei was very protective and went to their house several times to seek justice. Ye Hongying and Li Ermei were both afraid of Zhang Xiaomei, and gradually Ye Hongying stopped being competitive on the surface. But Ye Zhi knew that Ye Hongying's jealousy towards her had never stopped.
So, what is the significance of Ye Hongying writing this letter?
Want her to know that she lived a happy life after marrying Gao Wenbo?
But in the past six months, when she corresponded with her family, Zhang Xiaomei and her elder and second sisters-in-law occasionally mentioned Ye Hongying, saying that Gao Wenbo and his children were very naughty and had even hit Ye Hongying.
Just at the end of December last year, her mother said that Ye Hongying had miscarried a child.
So when Ye Zhi read Ye Hongying's letter, she was a little confused.
But think about it, everyone has to swallow their broken teeth.
According to Ye Hongying's personality, no one would say the word "wronged" in front of her.
However, Ye Zhi saw the last part, where Ye Hongying mentioned that she wanted to cooperate with her and asked her to send some dried seafood and dried fruits to her...
Ye Zhi frowned. It turned out that this was Ye Hongying's purpose. No wonder.
There were a lot of other things following that saying that she wouldn't take things for free and that she would be paid.
Ye Zhi didn't read it again, but just folded the letter again and put it back into the envelope.
Even if Ye Zhi didn't care about what was happening outside, she knew how serious speculation was in this era.
Ye Hongying said she wanted a large amount of seafood and dried fruits, but there was no state-owned unit to match her. Apart from speculation, Ye Zhi could not think of any other possibilities.
Ye Zhi’s current identity is a military wife. If anything goes wrong, not only will she be in trouble, but Lu Wei will also be punished.
If the circumstances are serious, the offender may be expelled from the military directly.
Three generations of the Lu family are military men. How could she let Lu Wei fall into such danger and humiliation?
Ye Zhi recalled Ye Hongying's strange behavior.
She was willing to get into Gao Wenbo's bed at the cost of her dignity, and even endure the troubles of several naughty children in order to marry him.
After reading this letter, Ye Zhi felt that her previous guess might be true.
Ye Hongying's situation might be similar to hers, either traveling through time or being reborn.
Otherwise, why would she marry Gao Wenbo, who has three children?
Does she also know that Gao Wenbo will be very successful in the future?
The original owner was willing to marry Gao Wenbo because she liked children and also liked Gao Wenbo who had helped her.
But Ye Hongying hated children, not to mention that Gao Wenbo had three of them!
While she was thinking about this, Lu Wei had already brought her a bowl of chicken soup.
When Lu Wei put down the chicken soup, he blew on it for her and said, "It's just right. You can drink it now."
Although Lu Wei was also curious about the letter sent by Ye Hongying, he did not go up to ask Ye Zhi what it wrote.
As soon as he came back, he went to the kitchen and brought out a coconut stewed chicken soup that Ana Shen had cooked before she left.
Thinking that Ye Zhi couldn't stand greasy food now, Lu Wei scooped up the layer of butter on top and put it into another bowl. He could use the oil to stir-fry some vegetables tonight.
When Lu Wei brought out the chicken soup, Ye Zhi smelled a sweet and fresh coconut aroma. The golden dots of oil on it made the chicken soup look delicious and refreshing.
They had just had breakfast not long ago and went to send Ana Shen to the dock, so they were not actually hungry at the moment, but Lu Wei said that they could just drink the soup as coconut water.
Ye Zhi took the spoon handed over by Lu Wei, took two sips, and then said, "My cousin wrote to me and said that she wanted me to send her dried fruits and seafood. She said she would give us money."
Lu Weiyi listened, glanced at the letter on the table, and asked, "Can I take a look?"
"Look, just burn it after you're done." Ye Zhi didn't want to leave anything that would put Lu Wei in danger, not even a little bit.
Lu Wei quickly finished reading the letter, then sneered and said, "It's fine to say you can send some money, but it's a bit weird to talk about money."
Lu Wei almost skimmed over the affectionate words in the letter.
I only read the last part about asking Ye Zhi to buy dried fruits.
Ye Zhi nodded and replied with a smile: "I think so too, so I don't plan to send her anything."
Even Lu Wei knew the secret without even reading the letter, not to mention that her relationship with Ye Hongying was not good enough for them to send things to each other.
So, Ye Zhi would not send her anything.
Lu Wei's eyes darkened, and then he said, "Ignore those people."
Li Ermei's disgusting face flashed through Lu Wei's mind. If it weren't for the sake of the Ye family, he would have asked the Revolutionary Committee to deal with it the day Li Ermei talked behind his back in front of him.
He could do that because he might not meet Li Ermei again in his life, and he would not have to look at her face for food, so he could be ruthless.
But Ye Zhi's parents and brother and sister-in-law are still there. They see each other every day and are sisters-in-law. He has to make plans for Ye Zhi's family.
But now Ye Hongying wants to "buy" dried fruits and seafood from Ye Zhi. What's the difference between that and profiteering?
Lu Wei took out a match, lit it, and burned the letter.
Ye Zhi picked up the bowl, blew on it, took a sip, and said, "Well, I ignore her. I'm not short of money anyway."
She has no worries about food and clothing now. In addition to Lu Wei's salary, Ana Shen gave her some money this time, and there is also money from Lu Wei's grandparents. She is now a small rich woman.
She didn't even bother to look at the little money Ye Hongying gave her.
Moreover, in this sensitive age, she doesn't seek to be rich and powerful, she just wants to live a good life with Lu Wei.
She couldn't give Lu Wei any advice at work, but at least she couldn't hold him back.
There is no rush to wait until the time is right and then slowly make long-term plans.
Lu Wei pinched Ye Zhi's fingers on her knees and said with a smile, "Wife, buy whatever you want and eat whatever you want. You don't have to save money for me. When the baby is born, you can buy more."
Lu Wei now just wants to give everything to Ye Zhi.
I want her to be the happiest person.
He is a man and he has to take on the responsibility of earning money to support his family.
Ye Zhi smiled and joked, "Okay, then when I have time, I'll go to the county town and move the mall back directly."
Lu Wei smiled and said, "If you have enough money, you can."
Ye Zhi chuckled. Even if she had enough money, she didn't have that many tickets!
Then, Ye Zhi pushed the chicken soup to Lu Wei and said, "Would you like to try it too? It's so sweet."
Ye Zhi has drunk a lot of stewed soup these days, and coconut chicken is the most refreshing and sweet.
Lu Wei looked at her and said with a smile: "Drink it. You have to eat three people's portion by yourself now, drink more."
Ye Zhi laughed when she heard this, and couldn't help but said angrily, "It's you who always makes me eat more. I just weighed myself at the post office, and I weigh more than three kilograms."
The New Year isn't even over yet, and she's already gained more than three kilograms. Ye Zhi doesn't even know what she ate to gain several kilograms in an instant.
It must be because Lu Wei asked her to eat more every day and gave her a lot of meat.
After hearing this, Lu Wei smiled and said, "Heavier again? That's good, it means my two little ones are growing strong!"
"No, my mom's comrade-in-arms said that if I'm too fat in the later stages of pregnancy, it will be difficult to give birth. I need to control my weight, so don't let me eat so much every day." Ye Zhi muttered.
Besides, it’s only been a few days since the Chinese New Year. Even if the fetus is growing, it is impossible for it to gain several pounds all of a sudden!
So she ate too much.
Lu Wei looked at Ye Zhi's rosy face and couldn't help but hold her face with his hands and kissed her deeply.
Now that there was finally no one at home, he didn't have to act sneakily anymore.
It seemed like he hadn't kissed his wife properly for a long time.
Ye Zhi also felt that she hadn't kissed Lu Wei for a long time, and couldn't help but raise her head slightly to respond to him.
They didn't know how much time had passed. Just when their breathing became a little disordered, footsteps were heard outside the living room, fast and urgent. Ye Xiaoding screamed "Ah" and quickly covered his eyes with his hands and turned around.
"I didn't see anything! I don't want to see it either. I don't want to get corns!" Ye Xiaoding shouted.
Ye Zhi: “…”
Previously, Ye Xiaoding ran into the two of them dawdling in the kitchen, and it happened that Ye Xiaoding was bitten by a mosquito at the corner of his eye. Lu Wei said that he had seen something he shouldn't have seen and got a corn.
Ye Xiaoding cried for two days. Later, when he saw Lu Wei and Ye Zhi walking together, he turned around and walked away, fearing that he would get corns again.
Lu Wei let go of the person in his arms, made a "tsk" sound, and asked, "Why are you running so fast? Didn't I tell you not to run so fast when you're at home?"
The child doesn't know the seriousness of the situation and is in a hurry. What if he bumps into Ye Zhi?
Ye Xiaoding stuck out his tongue, still covering his eyes, and asked with his back to them, "Are you guys okay? I'm going blind..."
Ye Zhi said unhappily, "Okay, why are you running so fast?"
Ye Xiaoding jumped into the living room, took out a spinning top and a red envelope from his trouser pocket, and said, "Auntie gave me a red envelope, and Anzi came back from Yangcheng today and also brought me something fun."
Sister He is from Guangdong Province. She heard from Lu Wei’s mother that many people in Guangzhou give red envelopes to children of acquaintances.
So she also prepared red envelopes for Anzi and Sister He's children early on.
Ye Xiaoding only saw the spinning top and didn't care about the red envelope at all. He directly stuffed the red envelope into Ye Zhi's hand and asked, "Aunt, do you know what it is?"
Ye Zhi put away the red envelope, then pretended not to know and asked, "I've never seen it before, what is this?"
"Anzi said this is called a spinning top, it's really fun."
"Then you try one and I'll see what's fun about it."
Ye Xiaoding showed it to Ye Zhi again and again, asking happily: "Did you see it? Did you see it? This spinning top can spin many, many times!"
Ye Zhi clapped her hands to show her respect: "Very impressive."
Lu Wei at the side sighed unhappily, then said, "Let's play for another day. It's time to go to school tomorrow. That's great."
Ye Xiaoding: “…”
Ye Xiaoding's shoulders drooped instantly.
My uncle has no heart, and even if he does, his heart is cold.
