Chapter 66: The whole family won’t check the accounts?
Yun Tangyin pointed to a few books on the table: "Just these few, 'Red Rock', 'Song of Youth', and the 'Lin Hai Xue Yuan' you mentioned."
Fu Yucheng stacked the books and held them in his arms, then picked up How the Steel Was Tempered which she had placed next to him: "Take this one with you too, I'll read it to you tonight."
"I can see it myself." Yun Tangyin said with a red face.
"I want to read it to you." Fu Yucheng's tone was very serious: "Listen to me read it, it's different."
Yun Tangyin didn't refute and followed him out of the reading room.
When passing by the playground, they saw a few soldiers playing ball. Fu Yucheng's communicator, Xiao Liu, called out from afar: "Brother Fu! Sister-in-law! Do you want to play for a while?"
Fu Yucheng waved his hand: "No, take your sister-in-law home."
He lowered his head and said to Yun Tangyin, "Are you interested? Next time I'm free, I'll teach you how to play basketball."
"I can't learn it." Yun Tangyin smiled and shook her head: "I can't even play badminton well."
"It's okay, I'll take you to fight." Fu Yucheng stopped, looked at the book and then looked at Yun Tangyin.
Finally, he handed her the book in his arms, and then pushed the bicycle against the wall: "It's inconvenient to walk with the book. I'll take you back on my bicycle."
Although it is easy for Fu Yucheng to get a bike with his identity, at this moment, he really wants to experience the feeling of riding a bike with his lover.
Fu Yucheng bent down and turned the bicycle around. "Come on, I'll take you home."
Yun Tangyin had just sat down in the back seat when he wrapped his military jacket around her shoulders: "It's a cool breeze, don't catch a cold."
He mounted his bicycle and a deep voice came from the front: "Hold on tight."
Yun Tangyin gently grasped the corner of his clothes, and the faint scent of soapberry on his body lingered at the tip of her nose.
The bicycle passed through the tree-lined avenue of the barracks. The wind blew up the hem of her military jacket, carrying her laughter away into the distance.
When I returned to the gate of Fu's courtyard, I ran into Jiang Jianhua hanging clothes in the yard.
She saw the two of them coming back and curled her lips: "Finally you're back. Mom has asked several times."
Yun Tangyin got off the bicycle, and Fu Yucheng immediately took off her military jacket from her shoulders: "Didn't we say at the dinner table that we were going to the army to get the books?"
Jiang Jianhua's eyes fell on the book in Fu Yucheng's arms, and then he glanced at the silver bracelet on Yun Tangyin's wrist. Suddenly, he said without thinking, "What's the point of reading so many books?"
Fu Yucheng handed the book to Yun Tangyin and said calmly: "Knowledge is power."
Jiang Jianhua had just hung up the last coat when he heard this and couldn't help but pursed his lips: "Fu Yuanshan studied for three years, and now he is still working in the workshop..."
Her eyes rolled, and she suddenly shouted towards the east wing: "Runli! The clothes are hung out, come out and help me take the basin back!"
Xu Runli was trying on a new hairpin in front of the mirror. When she heard the shout, she immediately lifted the curtain and came out.
She deliberately touched the hairpin on her head. It was the one she had bought at the supply and marketing cooperative today. It had a bright red plastic petal with sequins on it. "Hey, sister?" She walked up to Yun Tangyin, the sequins on the hairpin dazzling her eyes. "You really have the leisure time. Unlike me, I just helped chop firewood in the backyard. I'm exhausted."
Yun Tangyin glanced at her palms, her lips curled up: "You don't want to do any work at home, but you rush to work in the Northeast. You are really good."
Jiang Jianhua's face suddenly turned red. She didn't ask Xu Runli to chop wood at all. It was Xu Runli herself who said that she wanted to show off. After showing off, she said it so shamelessly.
It's so embarrassing.
Xu Runli clenched her palms. "Zhicheng said that girls should be hardworking. They can't be like some people who never leave the house and become the daughters of capitalists."
"You're talking about me." Yun Tangyin weighed the book in her hand and said, "Ah, but reading can make you wise, and..."
She looked at Xu Runli: "I can still manage the accounts."
Xu Runli didn't know what was going on, but Jiang Jianhua's face had turned blue and white. Why did he fall on her again for no reason?
Yun Tangyin tapped her fingertips on the spine of the book, her eyes slowly sweeping over Jiang Jianhua: "If this account is not settled, won't the family's money slip away in vain?"
Jiang Jianhua slammed the wooden basin in his hand to the ground. "Alright, alright, we're all family, why are you saying this?"
"A family? If we're a family, we won't check the accounts?" Yun Tangyin handed the book to Fu Yucheng, "My mother asked me to be in charge of the purchases. I have to give an explanation to the family."
Xu Runli's expression turned even uglier. She hadn't expected Jiang Jianhua's status in the Fu family to be so low, even lower than Yun Tangyin's. "This is your second sister-in-law, and you still dare to manage her money?"
"Oh?" Yun Tangyin raised an eyebrow. "That's a good thing to talk about. My second sister-in-law wrote in her account book today that she spent fifty cents on a hairpin for you. Now tell me, should this money be deducted from her monthly salary, or should it be included in the public account?"
This question confused Xu Runli. How would she know how much Jiang Jianhua's monthly salary was?
Jiang Jianhua quickly tried to smooth things over: "It's just fifty cents, I gave it to her! Don't say anymore..."
While speaking, Jiang Jianhua tried to pull Xu Runli into the house and kept signaling her to shut up.
"Since you gave it to her, it should be deducted from your monthly salary." Yun Tangyin opened the small account book she carried with her: "It should be deducted from your salary."
When Xu Runli heard this, she looked at Jiang Jianhua with a bit more suspicion.
Could it be that Jiang Jianhua and Fu Yuanshan’s salaries are both in Yun Tangyin’s hands?
Jiang Jianhua's face turned the color of liver: "Whatever you want!"
Yun Tangyin scratched a red mark on the account book with her fingertips: "Second sister-in-law has already bought three bars of soap and two boxes of clam oil this month, which is 40 cents overspending. Add another 50 cents for the hairpin money... Well, I still owe 90 cents for this month's salary."
Xu Runli suddenly sneered: "The Fu family is haggling over even a few cents with their own family members?"
"The Fu family is not as wealthy as the Jiang family." Yun Tangyin said lightly: "Every penny must be spent in a clear place. If you feel wronged, don't live here."
Jiang Jianhua quickly waved his hand: "No, no!"
After saying that, she dragged Xu Runli into the house and said, "Let's go back to the house and talk. Don't stand in the yard."
Xu Runli staggered as she was pulled, and turned back to glare at Yun Tangyin: "Don't be so proud! Wait until Zhicheng comes..."
"It's just right to wait for Zhicheng to come." Yun Tangyin raised the account book, "Let's see if he is going to make up the 90 cents or just keep it as a debt. After all, Mom said that if Second Sister-in-law does anything greedy for money again, she will be the first to punish her."
Jiang Jianhua's steps suddenly stopped, and Xu Runli realized that Jiang Jianhua was not only controlled by his money, but also secretly falsified expenses to embezzle money!
Xu Runli looked at Jiang Jianhua and found that Jiang Jianhua's face was extremely ugly.
It was hard to tell whether she was ashamed or embarrassed. Fu Yucheng was afraid that she would get angry and hurt Yun Tangyin, so he immediately put his arm around her shoulders and said, "Yinyin, let's go. I'll read to you."
Yun Tangyin also knew what Fu Yucheng was thinking, so she put away the account book and went back to her room.
The two women were left staring at each other in an awkward atmosphere that made one's toes tap on the ground.
