Chapter 35 (2)



Since childhood, Su Mianmian had lived a better life than her and was loved by her family. Originally, Su Mianmian didn't need to go to the countryside, but her brother did. However, her brother was in poor health, so she went to the countryside in his place.

After she went to the countryside, her parents would only send her things once every few months, but Su's father and mother would send Su Mianmian things every month.

Don't say it out loud, but I'm jealous in my heart.

There were many times when she would find fault with her, but Su Mianmian never argued with her.

But who knew that Su Mianmian was so lucky that after going to the countryside, she could even marry a soldier, who was said to be a regiment commander. Moreover, she had also seen him before, and he was tall and big. When he looked at Su Mianmian, he could not see anyone else in his eyes.

During the Chinese New Year, Su Mianmian even brought some wedding candies to the Youth League Committee. It was clear from her expression that she was happily married.

But this marriage was arranged by Chen Rou. Why didn't Chen Rou arrange it for her but Su Mianmian? Su Mianmian is a very sentimental person and has been very spoiled since she was young.

How could she be as pretty as she is and as good at dancing as she is?

But he didn't introduce anyone to her. Instead, he treated Su Mianmian like a treasure and even asked her to marry out of her family!

It was the same when I went there today. She said her mouth was dry, but she didn't even offer to pour me a glass of water, and she didn't say much either!

Han Guogang didn't know she had thought so much, and said, "Second sister-in-law is close to my eldest sister-in-law, and is also close to mother. If you have nothing to do, don't go over there."

He could understand what his wife was thinking, but now that the situation was like this, he just had to live a good life.

Once the child is born, his parents will recognize him.

Ye Qian said, "How can I not go? I also want Brother Guobin to help me find the captain and get me a letter of introduction to return to the city."

"What?" Han Guogang couldn't help but look at her.

"I'm married to you now, and we even have a child, but my family still doesn't know about it. I have to go back and tell my parents, right?" Ye Qian pursed her lips and looked at him and said, "When Su Mianmian married her husband, her husband took her home to get his parents' consent before the wedding!"

Han Guogang said, "Let's talk about it later. Besides, why do you want to go home to find Guobin? Guobin didn't write the letter."

Ye Qian asked: "Then where can you apply for it from the captain?"

"Let's talk about it later." Han Guogang still said the same thing.

Ye Qian didn't say anything and asked him to prepare dinner. After eating lunch without tasting the food, she went to sleep.

Han Guo had just finished a day's farm work and had to cook and do other things when he came back. He was very tired and fell asleep soon after lying down.

Looking at the country boy beside her who had no sense of romance and couldn't even say a word of comfort, Ye Qian felt sad.

Is she going to have to live with a man like this for the rest of her life?

Will she never be able to surpass Su Mianmian in this life?

At this time, Su Mianmian in the camp had no idea that her former friends were thinking about her so much, and she was also very annoyed at the moment.

"It's so hot, you should sleep on the floor instead of lying with me." Su Mianmian said unhappily with her big belly.

When the weather is hot, people tend to be irritable, especially since she has such a big belly, and it's almost seven months, a honeymoon baby.

Gu Chengyao was helpless. His soft and gentle little wife had become difficult to coax since the beginning of summer and would get angry with him at any time. But what else could he do but coax her?

After asking him to coax her for a long time, Su Mianmian was finally satisfied, and then she said, "Now that my belly is big, have I become uglier?"

"How can you become ugly? I think you've become more mature and charming. I'm completely fascinated by you." Gu Chengyao patiently coaxed his young wife who was several years younger than him.

"Then why didn't you kiss me when you came home today? In the past, you would kiss me every day when you came home!" Su Mianmian said.

"Then I'll make it up to you." Gu Chengyao said.

Su Mianmian covered her mouth and said, "Do you think you can kiss me if you want to?"

Gu Chengyao took her hand away, and then kissed her until she couldn't breathe. She calmed down and hit him lightly, saying, "Don't think I didn't hear that you had a good conversation with Li Zi from the Workers' Union today!"

Gu Chengyao asked why he was so angry today, and it turned out that the symptoms were here, and said, "I have nothing to do with her."

"I heard that she liked you before, and has liked you for many years!" Su Mianmian said.

"She and I are just comrades-in-arms." Gu Chengyao said, "I just love you."

Su Mianmian was pleased and said, "Then you should keep your distance from her in the future."

"I spoke to her two meters away." Gu Chengyao said.

"You're smart." A smile appeared in Su Mianmian's eyes. She could almost imagine Li Zi's expression.

If her man really had any feelings for this female soldier named Li Zi, then it would not be her turn. Besides, she knew exactly what kind of person he was after being married for quite some time, and she was just trying to warn him tonight.

"Satisfied?" Gu Chengyao asked with a smile.

"Hold me and sleep." Su Mianmian hummed.

Gu Chengyao then carefully hugged his young wife and went to sleep.

Fortunately, Ye Qian didn't see this scene, otherwise she would have been so angry that her stomach would have ached. If it were her, she would definitely curse: You are still so pretentious from childhood to adulthood!

Marriage is just like that. Every family has its own way of living. There is no universal standard. Just do whatever makes you comfortable.

July was really hot. Although there were two heavy rains, they couldn't suppress the heat.

Fortunately, the hottest weather is only about a few months, and it will be much better after it passes.

Not long after the end of the month, the big white geese at home started laying eggs.

It was little Hanghang who saw it and went in to get it: "Mom, goose eggs!"

"Take it into the house and put it in the egg jar. I'll make scrambled goose eggs for you tomorrow morning." Chen Rou said.

"Delicious?" Little Hanghang looked at his mother.

"Of course it tastes good. You'll know when you eat it tomorrow morning." Chen Rou said.

Little boy Hanghang took the eggs into the house and put them there. He knew the bamboo jar for storing eggs at home, so he put them there and imitated his mother, squatting there to count the eggs.

I don’t know if I could count them or not, but at least I stood up with a satisfied look on my face.

Chen Rou boiled some water, and when she saw that it was about time, she gave each of the two brothers a bath, and then sent them to bed.

She washed the clothes and hung them on the fence to dry.

She bathes these two every day, so much so that Zhou Zhen and the others say that she has the skills to do so, and it is considered good enough for them to be able to give them a bath.

When I grew up, I went to the river to wash myself.

Han Guobin came back at night and brought a big box of condoms.

Chen Rou saw that there were quite a lot of them and asked, "Why are there so many?"

"I said I had many colleagues, so they asked me to come and get it, and the doctor got it for me." Han Guobin said with a little pride.

Chen Rou rolled her eyes at him. There was nothing to be proud of.

"Wife, let's try to see if there is any difference between the provincial capital and the county town." Han Guobin said.

Chen Rou didn't want to talk to this thief anymore. Why try? It wouldn't make any difference. She just told him to go to bed. However, Han Guobin was in high spirits, so she finally gave in.

The next day, Chen Rou woke up and found that their couple's sex life seemed to be a little too frequent.

She planned to let him recuperate from today on, as the autumn harvest would begin in a month.

It’s said to be a month, but it feels like the blink of an eye, and then the horn of autumn harvest sounds.

During the summer harvest, the second son Zhou Zhou was still busy, but now there is no problem at all. Chen Rou sent the two brothers to their grandmother's house long ago.

He gave her rice porridge, eggs, and half a can of leftover malted milk and sent her to her parents' home. His second sister-in-law was pregnant this year, and her belly was quite big now, so she was busy at home, and Chen's mother took her place and went to the fields to earn work points.

However, as her aunt, Chen Ersao did not treat her two nephews badly.

Brother Chen San brought his two brothers here after he came back from work.

Chen Rou was already cooking. The two brothers were so excited when they saw their mother.

Brother Chen San laughed: "This is still a nest."

"Third brother, have you eaten?" Chen Rou asked.

"My mother was just cooking at home, so she asked me to bring it back to you first." said Brother Chen San.

"Then I won't keep you, Third Brother. You should go back and eat." Chen Rou stuffed a tomato into his mouth and said.

After dropping off his two nephews, Brother Chen went back and ate a tomato to fill his stomach.

Chen Rou quickly prepared dinner and washed her two sons before feeding them. After they were full, she ate her own food and then asked them what they did at their grandfather's house today.

Hanghang said he was digging earthworms to feed the chickens. As for Zhouzhou, I don’t know what he was playing, but it should feel pretty good.

The mother and her two children went to bed early. After eating, washing up, and doing housework, they went to sleep on the kang.

The two brothers were tired from playing, while Chen Rou was tired from being busy, so they all went to bed early.

Han Guobin came back in the middle of the night. He slept until four o'clock, then got up in the dark and went out with the villagers.

This is the autumn harvest. They all go out in the dark, and by the time the women get there, they have already harvested a lot of grain.

Chen Rou got up early again to cook. She woke up her eldest son and fed him breakfast. Her youngest son was still sleeping, so she left him alone. After the eldest son finished eating, she sent the two brothers back to her parents' home. She told her second sister-in-law, Xiaoer, had not eaten yet, and then she went home.

I got Han Guobin a bowl of dry rice with fried goose eggs and cucumbers on top, a few small tomatoes, and some pancakes for her lunch. I also filled the military water bottle with warm water and went out.

It was actually still very early at this time, just six o'clock.

Chen Rou couldn't wait to come over.

When Han Guobin saw his wife coming, he came over to have breakfast. He first took a big gulp of warm water and then started eating.

"Just put it here after you finish eating." Chen Rou said, and then went down to the fields to start working.

The couple's real busyness during the year is the summer harvest and autumn harvest. The rest of the time they are quite free, so they have to work hard no matter what.

Everyone is tired, not just the two of them. Moreover, if they don't participate in the autumn harvest, even if her husband Guobin has secured many benefits for the village, people will not be willing to share the food rations for her family of four.

Now that the couple has shown such a fighting spirit, even if some people still have opinions, they can just keep them to themselves.

After the autumn harvest, Chen Rou's chin, which was originally round, became pointed again. This year, she didn't earn many work points because of the trouble caused by the waiter, and she ate well, so her chin really showed signs of becoming rounder.

But it hasn't become completely round yet and it's become smaller again. She estimates that she will lose three or four pounds during this autumn harvest.

Han Guobin had also lost weight. He was obviously tired due to his irregular work and rest schedule. When he came back from get off work that night after the autumn harvest, Chen Rou washed his face and let him go to bed.

Chen Rou was tired, but not to the point of being sleep deprived. She went to bed early at night and didn't get up so early in the morning.

Han Guobin is young after all, and after taking good care of himself for three or four days, he has almost recovered.

He was not needed for delivering grain or anything like that, and later he was not needed for farming winter wheat either, so it was quite an easy job.

In a blink of an eye, it was time to distribute grain. The day of grain distribution was considered the most festive and lively day in the village.

Chen Rou, Zhou Zhen, Cai Lihua and the others were all exhausted by the autumn harvest, but they all had smiles on their faces.

When Mrs. Han saw that they were all there, she came over and took the initiative to say, "I'll ask your brother to bring it back for you later."

Chen Rou said, "Then I won't be polite to you, sister-in-law."

Mrs. Han didn't care. She was sharp-eyed and winked at Cai Lihua, raised her chin, and signaled Cai Lihua to look over there.

Cai Lihua looked over there, and Chen Rou and Zhou Zhen followed suit. It was Han Guogang who brought Ye Qian over to divide the food.

Mrs. Han couldn't stand Ye Qian: "I just can't understand it. Wang Zhiqing knows not to show her face if she can, so why does she go wherever there is a lot of fun? Is she afraid that people won't skin her alive? And she was gone for three days during the autumn harvest!"

"I didn't see much." Zhou Zhen said.

"I heard that her stomach was not feeling well." Cai Lihua said. She saw that Ye Qian did not go to work, so she asked her brother-in-law Han Guogang privately, and her brother-in-law said that.

"What's wrong with her? I think she's just lazy!" Han Dasao said unhappily, "The autumn harvest work points have been raised so high, but she doesn't even want to earn any. Is she really determined to eat Uncle Guogang's money?"

She doesn't work as efficiently as Chen Rou. Chen Rou, the sister-in-law, is very capable now. She can get seven full work points for women every day!

She could probably get six, which was less than her, but she was still convinced. After all, when she was picking cotton with her, she was left far behind. She couldn't pick as fast as her, and couldn't pick as cleanly as her.

The same was true when they were picking corn. She tried her best to compete with the second child's family. But don't be fooled by the second child's appearance. She, an old hand, was not as skillful as her when it came to the work.

She estimated that if she were to fight with the second brother's family, she might not be a match for the second brother's family. Although he looked weak, his hands were very strong!

But if the one from the third brother's family fights with her, she will pin the one from the third brother's family to the ground and rub him!

Let’s not talk about all this for now. Mrs. Han just can’t stand Ye Qian.

I feel that Han Guogang, this cousin, is really unlucky. Otherwise, why would he fall for this girl when he has no crush on so many other girls?

You have to know that there are other female educated youths in the educated youth department, and they are not bad either!

Chen Rou said, "As long as Uncle Guogang is happy, we don't need to worry about it."

"I haven't asked you yet, but I heard that she seemed to have visited your place?" said Mrs. Han.

"I've been there once." Chen Rou said.

Mrs. Han immediately said, "Why did you let her sit there? If someone like that saw her, she would just be chased away with a broom. If it were me, I would scold her so much that she would cry and go back!"

"I don't know why she came here. She just came to sit for a while and then she didn't come again." Chen Rou said. He probably realized that she didn't want to have a close relationship with him.

A few people were chatting, and Ye Qian didn't come over. She was with Han Guogang. She didn't seem to care about the looks from all around.

Needless to say, Second Aunt Han's expression was very strange. She didn't say a word the whole time. After dividing the food, she called her old man, and then she took the food away on the family cart!

Chen Rou divided the food quickly, so Brother Han sent it back first. When he came back, it was just Sister-in-law Han's turn.

Mrs. Han is good at arguing. She first asked her brother-in-law Han Guolin whether he had made a mistake in the calculation. Then she stared at the scale and said that even if she was short of half an ounce, it would not be acceptable!

After distributing the food, the team distributed the money, and Chen Rou didn’t get much this year.

As for Mrs. Han, her eldest son Tiedan started to collect grass for pigs starting this year. Moreover, during the autumn harvest, Tiedan took his younger brother Ludan to pick wheat ears and other things. They picked a lot, and the two brothers got two work points together!

Plus, she also gritted her teeth and worked hard this year.

So this year, Mrs. Han got about 40 yuan, and she was so happy that she could fly.

And she continued to go into the mountains to dig mushrooms after the autumn rain.

After delivering the dried mushrooms that day, Chen Rou gave the money and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, shouldn't you build a brick house next year?"

"It's not that easy to build a brick house. How can we live in such a good house?" Mrs. Han said with a happy smile.

That being said, Mrs. Han is really already planning it. If she can build a brick house, it would be very prestigious and spacious to live in!

While the two sisters-in-law were talking, Song Xiaoyu came over on a bicycle wearing small leather shoes.

After the autumn harvest, everyone's skin, including Chen Rou's, who had good skin, looked a little rough, not to mention Han Dasao, who was even less particular than Chen Rou.

Chen Rou washes her face with rice water every day to keep it healthy.

But even so, it cannot avoid being damaged and turning red.

Song Xiaoyu felt comfortable and refreshed. She took her son to her parents' home every day to let her mother take care of him. Her parents-in-law had to go to the fields to harvest in autumn, so she didn't have to do that because she had to go to work.

So when Han Dasao saw her, she couldn't laugh anymore and said, "Third sister-in-law, this year's grain hasn't even been harvested yet, and I've already sent thirty kilograms to my parents. You should eat more too!"

Song Xiaoyu said: "I didn't eat yours, sister-in-law. I gave my mother three yuan for food every month. It's considered Guolin's food. We are still supporting our parents!"

"Don't say that. The two brothers Tiedan and Ludan went to the old house to ask for water. Every time they went there, they saw their grandparents feeding their brother egg custard. Do they really think I know nothing?" said Mrs. Han.

Chen Rou saw that the two of them were about to quarrel, and said, "Sister-in-law, you should go back first. I will come to find you when I have time."

Mrs. Han didn't want to see Song Xiaoyu either, so she went back first.

"She has a physical problem, who can spoil her!" Song Xiaoyu didn't want to see her either. Until now, she still couldn't forget that she had to give the three yuan meal allowance because she was so angry with her.

"Third brother's wife, are you here for something today?" Chen Rou asked.

"Sister-in-law, you have to help me. The autumn harvest is over and there are so many people getting married. All the Pechoin in the county have been sold out. Even clam oil is out of stock. My two colleagues are out of stock when they want to buy it." Song Xiaoyu said.

Chen Rou calmly refused: "No, your second brother is not a peddler, let them buy it in the county town after a while."

"My sister-in-law's colleague saw the quilt cover my sister-in-law had and liked it very much. She just got married not long ago and asked me to come and say that she also wanted a quilt cover like that. I wonder if I can give it to her?" Song Xiaoyu said anxiously.

Chen Rou frowned and said, "Someone actually wants that damn expensive quilt? These working women really don't care about their families, do they?"

"What's the big deal? People get so much salary every month, shouldn't they be able to spend some money to buy a quilt cover they like?" Song Xiaoyu said.

Chen Rouxin said that the nine dollars would be deposited into her account, and said with embarrassment: "I'm afraid your second brother is too lazy to ask."

"Pechoin is acceptable, but we have to ask my second brother to buy another pair of this quilt cover. He works in a government agency, so if anything happens in the future, he will be an acquaintance of ours." Song Xiaoyu said hurriedly.

"Let me ask your second brother. He will definitely do you a favor." Chen Rou glanced at her and said.

Song Xiaoyu smiled and said, "Second sister-in-law, please talk to Second Brother!"
