"Gao Tuan, I didn't say anything. I just said that my wife gave my eldest brother and two children 10 cents each during the Chinese New Year. But Chen Tuan said that his wife gave Chen Yi a piece of cake. I don't know what to say. I don't want to compete with Chen Tuan. Besides, there is no difference between 10 cents and 1 yuan. The most important thing is the thought, right? Why did Chen Tuan suddenly compare his wife with mine?"
"His wife is good, and my wife is not bad either. She was arguing with me before because she was worried that she would be too stressed out when having children. Now she has come to her senses and said that she wants to raise the two children well so that I can be worthy of my brother!"
Deputy Captain Fang looked very moved. Captain Gao thought that there was a difference between one dime and one dollar. But Deputy Captain Fang was not wrong. The most important thing was the thought, not the money. But who asked Deputy Captain Fang to show off in front of Captain Chen?
Chen Tuan doesn't care about other things normally, but he protects his wife? Last time, before he even tried to persuade her, he started to protect her, not wanting to say a word bad about his sister-in-law. He showed off in front of Chen Tuan, so Chen Tuan shouldn't say a word in return?
What Captain Chen Hui said to Deputy Captain Fang was truly amazing!
I was sitting in the main room, listening to Deputy Captain Fang's complaints with an embarrassed look on my face but wanting to laugh. After a while, I sent him away.
After everyone left, Gao Dasao, who had overheard the incident, came out of the kitchen and said unhappily, "There's a big difference between one cent and one dollar. What do you mean there's no difference? Let Xia Lina give the two children one dollar to see if she's willing to give it up? Yang Meizi is really good to the children, but Deputy Tuan Fang's family is not necessarily the same. Last time, she scolded the old lady in person for being stubborn and for letting the two children eat for free. Xia Lina didn't do anything. She just gave her one cent. How could Deputy Tuan Fang believe her so quickly?"
Gao Tuan thought that it was good that Xia Lina was willing to give a dime, as his wife would feel bad if she gave a penny. Besides, a dime was not a big problem. The key was Xia Lina's attitude, whether she was willing to live a good life with Deputy Tuan Fang and raise two children.
This time, Deputy Group Leader Fang went to Group Leader Chen to show off his wife but it didn’t end well, did it?
Gao Tuan was quite happy for Deputy Tuan Fang's family that they were willing to live a good life with him, and he thought it was all thanks to the encouragement given by Deputy Tuan Fang's mother-in-law last time.
As the saying goes, a couple quarrels at the head of the bed and makes up at the foot of the bed. How can there be any overnight grudge?
Mrs. Gao is not as optimistic as her husband thinks.
Xia Lina's attitude has changed so much that it's hard to think too much.
With Xia Lina's personality, she would admire the other deputy group leader's two children if they could be half as good to her as Yang Meizi is to Chen Yi.
After Shuying brought the children home, she did not forget to make the milk popsicles she made.
She took one and shared it with her man.
The child had a very weak stomach, so she didn't dare give him any food. While the child was playing in the yard, she and her husband sat in the main room and secretly ate popsicles.
I have to say that eating popsicles in the middle of winter is really a treat.
Chen Xi had no interest in popsicles. After taking a bite of the particularly icy one, he frowned and strongly disapproved of her eating popsicles.
Chen Xi's expressionless face was very stressful. Shu Ying was not afraid of her man at all and asked, "How does it taste?"
"Too cool, just average!"
Tree Shadow: “…”
She didn't believe it and took a taste. It was so cold that her teeth chattered and she felt particularly uncomfortable.
But apart from being too cold, the milk popsicles tasted really good. Today's milk is very pure, and with the addition of sugar it is sweet and has a rich milky aroma, which is particularly fragrant. She also sprinkled some raisins on it, which added a bit of flavor, and it tasted really good.
What's wrong with it?
If conditions permit in the summer, children will definitely love to eat popsicles.
Shuying was dissatisfied with her man's lack of appetite. She was wrapped in a woolen coat, and her mouth and nose turned red from the cold when she ate the popsicle. Seeing her man's face getting uglier and uglier, Shuying said guiltily: "I just wanted to taste it. I made this popsicle with milk. It would be a waste to throw it away!"
"It's too cold, it's not good for your health!" Chen Xi said expressionlessly.
"I won't eat anymore after I eat this!"
The man's stern expression finally eased a little. Shuying handed the popsicle to him and coaxed him into taking another bite.
Shuying was seen feeding her man a popsicle by Chen Yi, who had sharp eyes.
"Aunt, uncle, what are you eating?" Chen Yi ran into the main room and looked in disbelief as he saw his aunt and uncle secretly eating delicious food.
The young fellow looked at his uncle and then at his aunt with a resentful look, as if it was written on his forehead that 'Why do you only give delicious food to your uncle and not to me'!
Isn’t he auntie’s favorite kid?
"What's that expression?" Shuying laughed at her child's little expression. The popsicle was too cold, and she really didn't dare to give it to her child.
She said, "This is a popsicle. It's really cold. You probably don't like it!"
Needless to say, the milk popsicle sprinkled with grapes looks quite good, and at Chen Yi's request, he insisted on having a bite.
Shuying had no choice but to let him take a bite, and told him that he could only eat one bite and not eat more, otherwise he would feel uncomfortable in his stomach.
Chen Yi nodded without hesitation. When he took the first bite, he stamped his feet and trembled. After he strongly requested a second bite, the sweet and milky popsicle made Chen Yi's eyes widen suddenly. He was especially surprised, just like the first time he ate fried meatballs: "Delicious!"
No matter how delicious it is, she dare not let this boy eat more. Didn’t you see how gloomy her man’s face is?
"Okay, now that you've tasted it, go play!" Tree Shadow sent the child away.
"Auntie, what is this made of? It's delicious! I want to eat more!" Chen Yi stood there unwilling to leave.
Chen Xi ate the last half of the popsicle with an expressionless face, then walked out the door. Shu Ying didn't dare to say anything. Chen Yi was dumbfounded and screamed in anger.
In the evening, Mrs. Gao came to talk to Shuying. Shuying was still worried that Mrs. Gao's family would be unhappy because of a red envelope of one yuan. Seeing that Mrs. Gao's attitude towards Tai was the same as before, Shuying was slightly relieved.
Mrs. Gao first complained to her about Deputy Colonel Fang showing off the money Xia Lina gave to Colonel Chen and then got criticized. Then she complained to her about the money Xia Lina gave to Deputy Colonel Fang's two nephews and nieces, and most of the sisters-in-law in the military region knew about it.
She had just come back and heard a lot of people talking about this matter. She guessed that it was most likely Xia Lina who made the noise herself.
Otherwise, how come so many sisters-in-law know about Xia Lina’s one-cent package?
Mrs. Gao was very disdainful of Xia Lina's behavior.
Shuying was focusing on her man's words to protect her against Deputy Captain Fang. She blinked and felt pretty good.
Mrs. Gao complained that Deputy Headmaster Fang was probably not reliable, and her attitude changed too quickly: "Deputy Headmaster Fang was regretting marrying Xia Lina before, but now he's on to the baby again?"
Xia Lina just said a few words about her willingness to raise the child but did nothing, but Deputy Head Fang believed her. She wanted to see what kind of trouble Xia Lina could cause in the future.
Shuying feels that Xia Lina, Deputy Captain Fang's baby, is nothing. After all, Xia Lina is not bad looking and has feelings for Deputy Captain Fang. If Xia Lina is really willing to take good care of the old lady and the two children, Deputy Captain Fang will definitely treat her well with all his heart. It all depends on whether Xia Lina really wants to understand or is just pretending to understand!
While Shuying was talking to Mrs. Gao, they saw Xia Lina coming back with Fang Xiaobao, carrying a wooden bucket and a fishing rod, with a dark face.
Fang Xiaobao was small and couldn't walk that fast. Xia Lina cursed at him impatiently, and Fang Xiaobao's face turned pale and he hurried to catch up.
Mrs. Gao couldn't bear to see it and deliberately said, "Deputy Colonel Fang, didn't your husband say that you have become a better person? He is willing to raise two children, and this is how you treat them? If the children's biological father hadn't given his place in the army to your husband, would you and your husband have such a good life now?"
Xia Lina didn't expect that she had such bad luck. She was seen by Mrs. Gao just when she lost her temper, and was also seen by Yang Shuying, the fox and fox spirit?
Xia Lina's face froze, but she had made up her mind to rebuild her reputation, better than Yang Shuying's reputation as a fox, a vulture, and a spirit. Xia Lina forced a smile and said, "Mrs. Gao, you guys from the Chen Tuan family misunderstood me. I didn't say anything. It's getting dark, and I'm in a hurry to go back and cook dinner!" After that, she spoke softly to Fang Xiaobao.
Mrs. Gao almost rolled her eyes. She knew very well that ever since Fang's mother came, it was the old lady who cooked for Deputy Head Fang and Xia Lina and his wife.
"Deputy Captain Fang, are you going to the back mountain to fish?" Shuying asked curiously, as if thinking about something.
Xia Lina really went to the river behind the mountain to dig ice to fish. She caught nothing most of the time. Is that why her face looked so dark and ugly?
Xia Lina's face turned pale as she was laughed at by Yang Shuying, the fox, fox and spirit. Mrs. Gao was very curious about how many fish she had caught and ran over to take a look.
Upon closer inspection, there was no fish in the barrel.
Xia Lina's face turned blue and purple, with an extremely interesting expression. She hurriedly picked up the wooden barrel and took Fang Xiaobao back to Fang's house.
Mrs. Gao suddenly realized why Xia Lina had lost her temper at a child just now.
Most likely, she heard that Fang Xiaobao and Yang Meizi went to the back mountain to catch a lot of fish last time, so she was jealous and wanted to catch some fish too, so she asked Fang Xiaobao to take her to the place where they went fishing to catch a few more fish.
As a result, she didn't catch any fish, so she got angry with Fang Xiaobao.
Why does Xia Lina think everything is so beautiful?
Xia Lina returned to the Fang family in a rage. Then she remembered what her husband said, that when she was away, Yang Shuying next door went fishing and caught more than ten fish. She was so jealous.
Today she specifically asked Fang Xiaobao to take her there, but she didn't catch any fish. Xia Lina was very suspicious that Fang Xiaobao had taken her to the wrong place. Just when she was about to get angry with Fang Xiaobao, Fang's mother came out of the kitchen and asked her to have dinner.
Xia Lina thought about the thousands of dollars in the old man's hand, so she didn't lose her temper. Her husband just came back, and Xia Lina immediately smiled and said, "Mom, I'll help you serve the dishes!"
