Chapter 26 can cultivate feelings
"Are you kidding me, or are you out of your mind? Just because someone is too obedient, you want a divorce?"
After patiently listening to Zhou Zhenxing's story, Liu Wengao felt an urge to slap him to death.
Zhou Zhenxing also knew that his feelings were something most people couldn't understand. "Old Liu, what I want is a partner who can encourage each other and work together to move forward. Not a woman who has no thoughts, no opinions, and who obeys me blindly."
"Su Jin is that kind of person. She does whatever I say, whether it's right or wrong, just like a soulless puppet."
Towards the end, he became quite emotional, realizing that his thoughts were not wrong.
Liu Wengao found these words grating. "She takes care of your parents and manages the household chores at home, so why does she become a puppet when she's with you? Does she have no soul? Do you like a wife who always goes against you and drives your parents half to death?"
Zhou Zhenxing was extremely helpless, "That's not what I meant..."
“One should be content. A wife as good as you is hard to find even with a lantern. Besides, you've been married for three years, and the total time you've spent back home is less than a month. How can you be so sure that she doesn't have her own opinions and that it's not because she cares about you?”
As an instructor, Liu Wengao's analysis of the situation was absolutely incisive, and he left Zhou Zhenxing speechless with just a few words.
Liu Wengao knew he had spoken too harshly, but divorce was a big deal, especially since Zhou Zhenxing was a company commander, and the decision needed to take the consequences into account.
"Comrade Su Jin has arrived. You can take this opportunity to get to know her better and perhaps you'll discover her good qualities."
Zhou Zhenxing chose to remain silent.
the next day.
Su Jin was woken up by hunger. She had slept very well that night, and when she opened her eyes, it was already broad daylight.
The dry rations they brought had all been eaten on the way, but there was still some loose change and a few food coupons in their bundle.
The grain coupons were something Liu Guizhi insisted she bring, since living with the army was different from living in the village; coupons were needed for everything.
Su Jin quickly washed her face, went out, and went to find something to eat.
Although the area where the troops were stationed was in the suburbs outside the capital, it was still much more prosperous than Daliushu Village.
Not only are the streets clean and tidy, but there are also people traveling by bicycle everywhere.
Su Jin had no curiosity or interest in any of these things, and simply found a steamed bun shop nearby.
A steamed bun costs six cents, and you also need five cents worth of grain coupons.
Su Jin smiled helplessly and sarcastically, mentally calculating her possessions. She only had enough for about twenty steamed buns, and she might not even have enough food coupons.
So, apart from resolving the issues with Zhou Zhenxing, the most urgent task is to quickly find a way to make money and become self-reliant.
She bought four steamed buns and returned to the guesthouse. Since she wasn't sure when Zhou Zhenxing would arrive, these four buns would be her food for the day.
However, to her surprise, when she returned to her room, Zhou Zhenxing was already waiting inside.
His first glance wasn't at Su Jin, but at the steamed buns she was carrying.
Su Jin casually placed the steamed buns on the table and asked, "Have you eaten? I just bought some steamed buns, they're still warm."
"I've already eaten."
Su Jin was not surprised by Zhou Zhenxing's answer. She slowly took out a steamed bun and ate it with hot water.
