At dinner, the family of three, who hadn't eaten braised pork for a long time, ate it with relish. She was having dinner when Mrs. Gao came to her and asked her how to make pickled fish.

Shuying wrote down the steps, gave Mrs. Gao some bean paste and peppercorns, and asked her to go back and cook dinner.

Mrs. Gao took the steps and asked her husband to read out the instructions on how to make pickled fish. After hearing her husband say that pickled fish required adding oil twice and a lot of seasonings, Mrs. Gao felt so painful that she regretted agreeing to make pickled fish for her husband.

No wonder my husband said this pickled fish is delicious. How can it not be delicious with so many ingredients and oil?

Gao Zhi knew from his mother's expression that she was feeling sorry for him. He had not forgotten how many times his father had told him that Aunt Yang's pickled fish was delicious. He hurriedly said, "Mom, you promised me that you would make pickled fish. You can't go back on your word. Besides, we only make pickled fish once!"

"That's fine!"

Shuying, who was having dinner in the main room with the door closed, was also talking about this.

Gao Zhi read to Mrs. Gao the steps of how to make pickled fish in a moment. Mrs. Gao knew that it would require a lot of oil, so she probably didn't want to make it.

Chen Yi just took a bite of rice and picked up a piece of braised pork soaked in soup. His cheeks were bulging as he ate. He said sympathetically: "Xiaoyuan's mother's cooking is not good! She also feeds Xiaoyuan and his brother salted vegetables and sweet potato rice every day. It's so disgusting!"

Shuying thought to herself that she didn't know whether Mrs. Gao's cooking was bad or not, but it was true that Mrs. Gao was frugal. She didn't want to use oil when cooking, so how could the food be delicious? She was just as frugal as her mother, but only slightly better than her mother.

However, there are many children in this era, which is the basic national condition. But if she is asked to save money now for her children to marry in the future, she can't do it.

"It's a pity that you're the only one in our family!" Shuying said to her child, "Auntie is only responsible for raising you to be plump and white. You can find a wife by yourself in the future. Otherwise, we'll have to eat salted vegetables starting tomorrow!"

"I don't want a wife! I want my aunt, and I want to eat delicious food, not salty food!" Chen Yi smeared his mouth with oil, and laughed while saying, "I will make a lot of money in the future, more than my uncle, and spend it on my aunt! I don't want a wife!"

Shuying was so moved by the innocent words of the child that he was completely moved.

Chen Xi automatically ignored what the boy said, with a smile in his eyes, he raised his thin lips and said: "We can afford to raise as many children as we want! You can spend as much money as you want!"

However, when facing the child, he looked serious and asked him to swallow the rice in his mouth before speaking, and his eyes vaguely glanced at his wife's flat belly.

Shuying felt confused when the man looked at her belly from time to time, but she really liked what he said. It was worth it for her to cook for the two of them every day.

Shuying deliberately asked her husband, "What if I spend all your savings?"

Chen Xi remained calm and said that he received a salary every month and he would work hard to gain military merit in the future.

If he cannot support his daughter-in-law and children, he cannot blame his wife for spending money, but can only blame himself for not being capable enough.

The man said this as he put some food into his wife's bowl.

Shuying was full after eating a bowl of rice, and asked the uncle and nephew to eat slowly, saying that her family had enough money and she didn't want her man to risk his life for military merit.

The man's cold brows softened completely. She ate too little. Chen Xi was not very satisfied. He went to get a bowl of rice and left half a bowl for his wife, asking her to finish it.

Shuying only ate a few bites and put the rest of the rice back into the man's bowl, letting him eat by himself without having to worry about her.

At night, the family of three huddled in the quilt, listening to the wind whistling outside, feeling exceptionally warm.

Especially since there is a 'stove' next to Shuying, these days, she especially likes to sleep next to him.

Chen Xi held her in his arms, his big hands touching her flat belly as usual, thinking about his precious daughter!

Recently, her lower abdomen has been feeling a little sore, and she wonders if her period is coming. The man's warm big hands touch her very comfortably.

Even when the child was asleep, she dared to hum softly.

"Does your waist hurt?" the man suddenly asked in a deep voice.

The tree shadow felt so comfortable that I shook my head subconsciously without thinking much about it.

A man who wants a concubine but doesn't want his wife to be a widow naturally thinks he has to work harder.

This is not sure if her waist is not sore or her whole body is not aching. The man turned over and pressed on her.

He was tall and heavy, and the pressure on her was quite heavy. Shuying was unable to breathe because of the pressure. She had just opened her eyes when the man succeeded and sweat broke out on her forehead.

"uncomfortable?"

“Hmm!”

Chen Xi simply hugged her and made her sit on him, kissed her on the back of her head, and blocked her words, causing her to die several times on the bed.

When the two of them finished, Shuying's hair was wet with sweat and he felt drowsy. He was sweating all over, just like someone who had just been pulled out of the water.

Chen Xi pushed the wet hair on her forehead behind her ears, touched her slightly bulging belly, and hugged her to sleep.

The next morning, the man had something to do and didn't have time to eat breakfast, so he left first. Shuying got up and made breakfast for him.

Now, thinking back to last night when the man had succeeded in getting on with her and tormented her for most of the night, she felt her legs become weak and her back and waist ached.

Compared to the refreshed man this morning, her eyes were a little blue, her steps were unsteady, and she was very angry.

In the morning, she didn't have the energy to make a complicated breakfast, so she made a lot of meat floss.

Since the weather has turned cold, she has bought a lot of meat at the market and stored it in stock. She can also exchange meat at the mall. In short, eating meat is a must at home.

After the meat floss is prepared, it can be sealed in cans and can be eaten for several days. It goes well with steamed buns or porridge.

The freshly fried meat floss tastes very fragrant.

She even specially exchanged some seaweed from the mall, added some seaweed and sesame seeds to the meat floss and fried them together. The aroma attracted Chen Yi, who was playing in the front yard, to run to the kitchen.

Shuying gave the child some meat floss. Chen Yi's eyes lit up and he ate it with relish.

For breakfast, she and her children would eat rice porridge and steamed buns with meat floss.

There was meat floss for dinner this morning, so the child drank an extra bowl of porridge.

After breakfast, both the big and the small put on perfume. Shuying looked in the mirror and made sure there were no marks on her neck. Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief, took the child to school, and went back to the office.

The first class in the morning was her math class, and Shuying continued to talk about the test paper.

After class, when Niu Weiguo was about to enter the office with his homework, Shuying stopped him.

"Teacher Yang!" Niu Weiguo remembered that he got a very low score on the test and did not pay attention in class. He felt very guilty and stood obediently in front of the tree shadow.

Shuying didn't scold anyone immediately, but sighed a few times on purpose.

"Teacher, what's wrong with you? Did someone bully you? I'll avenge you!" Niu Weiguohu said in a loud voice with his eyes wide open.

Tree Shadow: “…”

"No one is bullying the teacher, it's just that the teacher is a little embarrassed!" Just now, Shuying said that a classmate came to her and said that his score was too low and he was not suitable to be a class representative!

"Who said that? I'm going to beat him to death." Niu Weiguo said angrily, imitating his father's tone. But when he remembered that the person in front of him was Teacher Yang, Niu Weiguo restrained himself a little and quickly shut up.

But he was also a person with a temper. Before he became a duty officer, he was quite interested in being one. After becoming one, he did not think it was anything special. He immediately shouted, "If I don't want to be one, then I don't want to be one. I don't want to be one!"

She had expected the child's reaction. Shuying said, "Niu, whether you are a class representative or not will not have much impact on the teacher. The teacher can just change someone else. But your parents already know that you are a class leader. If you suddenly stop being a class representative, how will you tell your parents?"

Niu Weiguo froze.

Since he became a duty officer, his father no longer beat him with a belt every day. He always smiled at him. When he wanted to eat meat, his father would buy him meat without saying a word and was especially nice to him.

His mother was fine, but if his father knew that he had been removed from the squad leader position, he would definitely beat him with a belt. Niu Weiguo trembled.

Shuying took in Niu Wei's expression, suppressed the smile in his heart and continued: "The reason why the teacher is so entangled is that he is a little worried that you will lose face. A few days ago, the teacher heard your mother tell everyone in the military area that you became a class officer. Everyone in the class also knows that you are a class officer. The teacher suddenly removed you from the class representative. What if you lose face?"

Children of this age are the most concerned about their reputation, so we are not afraid that the child will not respond.

So, after listening to what Teacher Yang said, Niu Weiguo's face turned green, and he wanted to jump up and down, but he didn't know what to do if everyone knew that he was removed from the position of class representative and laughed at him.

Shuying pretended not to see it and continued, "But the teacher also knows that these things will definitely not affect you. What's there to be afraid of if we lose face just once? Okay, Niu, the teacher knows that you don't want to be the class representative anymore. I will announce to everyone in the class that you don't want to be the class representative anymore!"

"Teacher Yang, I want to be a class representative, I want to be a class representative!" Niu Weiguo shouted anxiously, as if he was afraid that Teacher Yang would remove him from the position of class representative. Niu Weiguo hurriedly said that he would listen to the lectures carefully in the future and get good grades next time.

Shuying didn't agree immediately. Niu Weiguo was so anxious that sweat broke out on his forehead and he scratched his head: "Teacher Yang, please give me another chance! I will study hard."

Shuying thought for a long time before relenting, "Okay, since you are so sincere, I will give you another chance. If I catch you not paying attention next time and you are still the last in the class, I will remove you from the position of class representative!"

Niu Weiguo: "..."

"Okay, go back to class and tell other students that if there is anything you don't understand when the teacher explains the test paper, you can come to the office to ask the teacher."

It was cloudy and rainy for the next few days, and both the newly built mud brick house and the small courtyard were very damp.

With heavy rains suddenly falling for several nights in a row, there was some water seepage through the earthen walls of her house, but fortunately it was not too serious.

However, the Shilitun village suffered some flooding. Her husband went to help with disaster relief in the middle of the night two days ago and has not replied to her letter yet.

Also going with them were Gao Tuan and Fang Fu Tuan and several others.

It was raining heavily and her husband was not at home, so she didn't cook anything for dinner. She just made pork stewed with vermicelli. After she and her child finished eating, she took the child back to the house to sleep.

She didn't sleep, but sat aside, absent-mindedly hooking her shoes.

"Sister Yang! Sister Yang!" When Shuying was picking up her shoes, she heard someone knocking on the door and the voice of Mrs. Gao. She hurriedly found a hat and went to open the door. She asked Mrs. Gao to come into the main room and sit down, while pouring her a cup of boiled water.

"Are you okay? Sister Yang!"

Mrs. Gao came to the Chen family's yard because she was worried about Yang Meizi. After all, Yang Meizi had just followed Chen Tuan in the army not long ago, and she was afraid that Yang Meizi would worry about Chen Tuan, so she came to see her.

As for her, she has been following her husband in the army for more than ten years and has seen all kinds of storms. Her husband just rescued her from a disaster these days, which is nothing.

After sitting down, Mrs. Gao said that Chen Tuan and the others would definitely be back in a day or two, and asked her not to worry too much. She also reminded her to prepare a pot of ginger water.

Wait for the man to come back, drink a bowl of soup to dispel the cold, and then soak your feet.

"I understand, sister-in-law!" Shuying was very grateful to Sister-in-law Gao. With her words, she felt much better.

It was raining heavily outside, so Mrs. Gao didn't stay long in the main hall of the Chen family. She left after saying a few words. Shuying wanted to see him off, but Mrs. Gao wouldn't let him, saying it was raining too heavily outside.

Shuying still walked the person outside the yard, and only returned to the house after watching Mrs. Gao enter her own yard.

After hooking shoes for an hour and a half, her man still hadn't come back. She felt a little impatient and went to bed first.

Hearing some noise outside, Shuying quickly turned on the light and went out of the house.

The man, who was soaked in mud, was taking off his clothes and pants and washing his hair and taking a shower in the backyard. When he heard the noise, he looked up in surprise and asked in a deep voice, "Did I wake you up?"

"No, I'm a light sleeper!" The weather was cold, and the man had not returned for several days after disaster relief. She was afraid that he would catch a cold after taking a shower, so she didn't say much to him. She hurried into the house and cooked a large bowl of clear soup noodles and a large bowl of dumplings.

She made these dumplings yesterday because she saw that her children loved eating dumplings. It was raining heavily and she had nothing to do, so she made some dumplings.

Just the right amount to cook a big bowl for a man.

Chen Xi took a shower, went into the room to change clothes and came out with a big bowl of noodles and dumplings on the table. There was a smile and tenderness in his eyes.

Shuying then brought out a bowl of ginger tea and handed it to the man, saying, "First, drink a bowl of ginger tea to get rid of the cold!"
