Chapter 140 It's True Love, But It's False
——If soft tactics don’t work, then you can only use hard tactics
"Jiao sister, sister-in-law really misses you. Look how long it has been since we last met. Don't you miss sister-in-law?"
"Jiao sister, you finally came here, please give us some face."
"Come on, come on, let's go with the sisters-in-law!"
The two sisters-in-law stood on the left and right of Lin Shijiao.
They stretched out their hands and tightly hooked Lin Shijiao's arms.
There was another person who quickly took the things from Lin Shijiao's hand.
No matter what Lin Shijiao said, he decided to go all the way and just carried Lin Shijiao away.
This is not just inviting someone for tea, it's almost like kidnapping.
Lin Shijiao looked reluctant.
But at this time, feeling the warm embrace of her sisters-in-law, she did not turn her face away, but really walked with her sisters-in-law.
After a while.
Lin Shijiao was carried into her sister-in-law's house.
A group of people were pouring water, handing out melon seeds and peanuts, all surrounding Lin Shijiao.
There were also two sisters-in-law who sat on Lin Shijiao's left and right sides from beginning to end.
It was as if if Lin Shijiao dared to walk out of this door, they would immediately reach out and grab her tightly.
Anyway, she must not be allowed to see Jiang Ning!
"Jiao sister, I haven't seen you for a while. I feel like you have lost weight. Your chin looks so pointed. Your sister-in-law feels so distressed when she sees it."
“Have I lost weight?”
Lin Shijiao touched her face subconsciously.
In this era, traditional aesthetics still prefer a plump and healthy figure, and there is no trend of considering thinness as beauty.
Being thinner is not something to be happy about.
"Let me see, let me see..."
My sister-in-law, who was sitting on the other side, also took the initiative to look around.
After looking up and down for a while.
Nodded heavily immediately!
"You've lost weight! You've really lost weight! How come you've lost so much weight? If General Qin saw this, he would be heartbroken..."
Although the sisters-in-law forced themselves to chat with Lin Shijiao in order to delay time.
But really speaking.
Still sincere.
Especially seeing Lin Shijiao looking lonely and haggard, I still felt somewhat distressed.
At this flower-like age, it is the time to bloom beautifully.
Lin Shijiao paused at this moment, and the arrogant expression on her face disappeared, becoming a little gentler.
even……
I still have some concerns.
Ever since she last met Jiang Ning, Lin Shijiao has been thinking about what Jiang Ning said.
Keep thinking about it.
Slowly...
It becomes a knot in your heart.
"Jiao sister, you are so young, you should eat more, nourish your body, and eat more good food."
"Is it because the weather is too hot that you have no appetite? Or are you sick? Have you been to the hospital?"
"Your health is the foundation of everything. Sister, even if you are alone, you must take good care of yourself! If you really can't, go back to find General Qin——"
The sisters-in-law’s concern was genuine, and their desire to divert Lin Shijiao’s attention was also genuine.
As they talked, they looked at each other.
If Lin Shijiao had paid a little more attention at this time, she would have noticed these strange details.
But her thoughts were involuntarily filled with the concern of her sisters-in-law.
They held her hands tightly...
Those worried eyes...
Words of concern and advice...
These were details that Lin Shijiao had never noticed before.
[Lin Shijiao, don't underestimate yourself.] 】┅
Jiang Ning's words once again appeared in Lin Shijiao's mind.
The little girl, who used to be so arrogant and used pride to disguise herself, now felt warmth she had never felt before.
She was... loved by so many people.
"...I have a poor appetite recently, but it doesn't matter. I will be returning to the provincial capital in a few days."
Lin Shijiao spoke.
When the sisters-in-law heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up.
"Go back to the provincial capital?! Going back to the provincial capital is good! Good!"
"That's right, it's great to have General Qin and his men taking care of us!"
"Sister Jiao, life in the military camp is too hard. It's a far cry from the provincial capital. It's better for you to live in the provincial capital."
A group of people surrounded Lin Shijiao and chattered.
Lin Shijiao was not annoyed at all. She answered whatever her sisters-in-law asked.
His expression still looked a little awkward.
But the domineering look he once had is completely gone.
Just chatting can keep people for a while, but not for too long.
"Sisters-in-law, thank you for the tea and melon seeds. It's almost time. I have something else to do--"
Lin Shijiao stood up and said some words of farewell.
The sisters-in-law were so anxious, afraid that she would rush into Jiang Ning's house again.
Someone came up with a quick idea.
He slapped his thigh and immediately interrupted Lin Shijiao's words!
"Hey! It's already this late! It's time to eat!"
Immediately following.
The other sisters-in-law, who were panicking, also started to speak up.
"...Yes, yes, yes! It's time to eat! It's the middle of the day, it's time to eat!"
"...Jiao sister, please stay for dinner! My sister-in-law is from Northeast China, and the iron pot stewed goose she makes is absolutely delicious!"
"Stewed goose in an iron pot? Then we will take advantage of Jiao Mei's kindness and have a good meal together today."
that's all.
Everyone was "discussing" what to do for lunch.
Lin Shijiao, who had originally stood up, was pulled by the hand and sat down again.
Lin Shijiao was a little confused and hesitant, but looking at the enthusiastic smiling faces around her, she finally did not stand up again, nor did she say she wanted to leave.
The sisters-in-law saw this.
They all breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.
Finally... I managed to keep the person.
Having lunch can last a long time.
…
Let’s talk about the other side.
The sisters-in-law also arrived at Jiang Ning and Qin Jiulie's homes.
Jiang Ning had just woken up at that time and was weeding in the yard while wearing a straw hat to protect himself from the sun.
In the sunshine.
She had fair skin, rosy cheeks, and long hair.
Standing in a green vegetable field, one feels the peacefulness of life and the charm of a beautiful lady.
The sisters-in-law originally came in a hurry.
But from the moment he saw Jiang Ning, he suddenly calmed down for some reason.
It was as if Jiang Ning had this magical power.
Anything can be easily solved as long as it is in front of her.
The sisters-in-law looked at each other and slowly calmed down. Instead, they had an idea in their minds.
"Sister Ning, you're pregnant, why are you still working? I'll be in charge of your vegetable garden from now on. If you need anything, just call me."
"Sister-in-law, this is embarrassing. Besides, when you were pregnant, you still had to take care of household affairs, inside and outside. I am the same as you, I don't need any special treatment."
Jiang Ning smiled and talked to his sisters-in-law.
She is gentle, tough, and her words are soft and pleasant to the ear.
There are also
A recognition of the hard work of my sisters-in-law.
Whether it is the person who is speaking or the person who is listening, everyone feels warm and comfortable in their hearts.
The sisters-in-law surrounded Jiang Ning, taking turns to talk to him, caring about his every aspect, from eating, drinking, and defecating to urinating.
"Sister Ning, where is Captain Qin? Has he come back in the past few days?"
A sister-in-law asked with concern.
She subconsciously looked around the room, wishing Qin Jiulie could appear in an instant.
If Qin Jiulie was there, no matter how naughty or willful Lin Shijiao was, she would never be able to hurt Jiang Ning.
Unfortunately——
"No. He hasn't been back for several days, and there's no news. But in the barracks, no news is the best news. I heard gunshots today, maybe he went to the mountains for target practice."
Jiang Ning smiled softly.
It’s a pity that we can’t see the Qin Jiulie area.
But that is the honor of a soldier, and she also has the responsibilities of a military wife.
