Is Aunt Lan pitiful?
It is certainly pitiful for the elderly to see their loved ones die.
But what did Lu Jianan do wrong? He is a soldier of the country and he was promoted to the position of regiment commander by accumulating military merits. Can he be slandered for no reason?
Even if she agreed, the troops could not agree.
The old lady's face turned red and white, and she was still muttering, "Maybe it will be okay if you don't provoke her."
Before Song Nanting could say anything, the other ladies were already annoyed. "What do you mean by that? Even though that old woman is not a good person, we all sympathize with her. What's wrong with going over to see if there's anything we can do to help her and giving her some advice?"
"That's right. Do you really think everyone will go over and watch the fun like you? If you care so much about her, why didn't you say something good for her just now?"
Aunt Mei sneered, "With that woman's character, who here hasn't fought with her?"
The lady felt guilty and said quickly, "I'll go home and cook."
Then he ran away quickly.
Several aunties comforted Song Nanting and told her not to take it to heart, but Song Nanting shook her head and said, "It's okay."
Even though the Zhao family was hateful, she really wanted to go over and say something nice about them.
But before he could even finish his words, he met with an unexpected disaster.
Bad luck.
It was already dark at this time, and Song Nanting went home to prepare dinner. As usual, there was Lu Jianan's nutritious meal, which tasted good but was light.
Lu Jianan came back, took two bites and frowned, "How long do we have to finish this nutritious meal?"
Song Nanting said, "Eat until your arm is healed."
Lu Jianan could only sigh.
After dinner, Song Nanting told Lu Jianan what happened in the afternoon. Lu Jianan frowned and said, "Don't worry about them. Let the Political Department handle it."
At night, Lu Jianan lay on the kang, doing nothing but hugging Song Nanting, "If..."
"If you say that again, I'll be angry with you." Song Nanting pushed him away, turned inside and ignored him.
Lu Jianan chuckled, then slowly moved closer and hugged her from behind. Their bodies were pressed tightly together, and she could clearly feel the heat from the man.
Her face felt a little uncomfortable, and she moved her hips, "You."
"Oh." Lu Jianan turned her over and kissed her, being especially gentle.
Lu Jianan usually looks cold and doesn't talk much, but he always knows how to tease Song Nanting every time they are on the kang.
When Lu Jianan exerted his strength, Song Nanting clung to his arms tightly, and every moment of their time together flashed before her eyes.
At this moment, there was a sudden flash of lightning outside, and in an instant there was thunder and lightning, and soon heavy rain fell down.
Accompanied by the sound of rain, Song Nanting was like a fish, floating up and down in the water.
The rain still didn't stop after dawn, it was drizzling, but there was no thunder and lightning.
Song Nanting wore a raincoat and re-dug the drainage ditch in the yard. After they finished what they did last night, they got up and covered the vegetable field with oil paper.
The vegetable garden outside the door was not covered, so there was a lot of water inside.
Song Nanting re-dug the drainage ditch in the yard and went outside the door to drain the water.
Across the street, Tian Xiao'e was also tidying up the vegetable patch by the wall.
Tian Xiao'e was thin to begin with, and she looked even thinner overnight, as if she could be blown down by a gust of wind.
Seeing Song Nanting busy, Tian Xiao'e looked up at her, pursed her lips and lowered her head to continue working.
Song Nanting looked at her and felt a little sorry for her. She couldn't help but say, "Mrs. Tian, it will be fine."
Tian Xiao'e nodded with red eyes, but she choked with sobs and said nothing.
Song Nanting sighed, "Mrs. Tian, you are the support of the four children. You have to protect yourself before you can protect them."
"I know." Tian Xiao'e couldn't help crying.
The rain was still falling, mixed with Tian Xiao'e's crying.
After finishing her work outside, Song Nanting went home and lay on the kang.
Thinking about what Lu Jianan said.
There are many things in this life that are different from the previous life.
So can Lu Jianan stay alive forever?
Of course I can.
Song Nanting fell into a drowsy sleep and dreamed of gunfire and Lu Jianan being shot.
Song Nanting suddenly woke up from her dream.
Near noon, there was a commotion outside again.
Song Nanting went out, but stood at the door of her house, and heard Aunt Lan crying and wailing, "I won't leave. Why should I leave? This is my son's home."
Song Nanting raised her eyebrows. Is the army going to let Aunt Lan go?
It's better that she is gone, so that Tian Xiao'e and her sons can live a better life. Otherwise, it would be difficult for a house full of women and children to survive with the pension.
I don't know what was said on the other end, but Aunt Lan said loudly again, "Then give me my son's pension and I'll leave."
There was sudden silence all around.
People around her know Aunt Lan's temper too well.
Everyone reacted as soon as they heard this.
Aunt Lan didn't really feel sorry for her son, nor did she want to drive Tian Xiao'e away.
This is to get Zhao Daqiang's pension!
All of a sudden, everyone started to blame Aunt Lan.
"Your daughter-in-law and grandchildren are still here, how can you say that?"
"Even if you give it to me, it's for your daughter-in-law to raise the child. How can you be so embarrassed?"
"You keep saying you love your son, but you really want the money."
Aunt Lan pushed another lady aside and shouted, "If you don't give me the pension, I will die in front of the military compound and embarrass everyone."
“…”
Tian Xiao'e's crying, the children's crying, and Aunt Lan's roar were all audible.
Song Nanting went home.
This matter is no longer her business.
Naturally, the Political Department and the Parents’ Committee will handle it.
After a few days, it seemed like it was over.
Sister Du Hua said that the army divided the pension into six parts, and Aunt Lan took one-sixth. She reluctantly took her eldest son's two children back to her hometown.
Song Nanting was surprised. "One sixth, will she agree to this?"
There was a commotion outside from time to time these days, but Song Nanting never went out once.
Mrs. Du Hua sighed, "Of course she was not happy about it, but the army called all the people from the committee here, and the old lady was scared."
Song Nanting was speechless for a while.
If Auntie Lan hadn't done this to herself, who could have done anything to her? Even Tian Xiao'e probably wouldn't have been able to chase her away. She did this to herself, and even after getting the money, she's still not satisfied.
Isn't this just looking for trouble?
"Can she feel at ease spending the money that was bought with her son's life?"
They don't have an answer to this question yet.
The matter of Zhao Daqiang seemed to have passed. After all, Tian Xiao'e had four children to raise. Lu Jian'an coordinated with the army and finally arranged a job for Tian Xiao'e in the family compound.
The oldest of the four children is nine years old and the youngest is only two years old. It's fine for the older ones to take care of the younger ones while Tian Xiao'e goes to work.
Aunt Mei couldn't help but sigh every time she talked about it, "If only that old woman didn't cause trouble, stayed at home to take care of the children, and Tian Xiao'e went to work, we could barely get by."
But there is no buts. Aunt Lan is just that kind of person.
Song Nanting was also worried that after losing her money, Aunt Lan would come back and continue to make trouble.
This matter is difficult to explain, and Song Nanting didn't say much.
In the middle of the month, Song Nanting suddenly vomited when she woke up in the morning.
Song Nanting wondered, is she pregnant?
