Chapter 50

"Maybe a wild boar came into the house and knocked it open."

Chen Yinghong stared at Liu Cailan with a sneer on her lips. Seeing Liu Cailan lowering her head and pretending to be dead, she wanted to pick her up and slap her a few times.

"Ah? Is the wild boar still going on?" Zhao Xiuzhi wanted to ask, but was stopped by Jing Xian. Zhao Xiuzhi dared not to say anything and just shut up obediently.

Jing Xian said, "Then sister, we will go back first."

Chen Yinghong then smiled and said, "I'll see you off."

“No, no.”

Jing Xian took Zhao Xiuzhi and walked outside.

Chen Yinghong wanted to see them off, but she also wanted to see where the wild boar was, so she was a step slower. While she was hesitating, Jingxian and Zhao Xiuzhi had already left their house.

"Liu Cailan, when Baomin told me these things before, I didn't believe it at first. I think he didn't believe you. You were quite decent in the village, not hanging around those educated youths. You looked more sensible than other girls. But I didn't expect you to be so sensible."

Chen Yinghong glanced at her coldly, then opened the door and went into the room. She saw that the quilt on the kang was in a mess and there were a lot of toilet paper scattered on the floor.

Toilet paper is so expensive!

Most people are reluctant to use it.

There were so many of them thrown on the ground, and they were obviously used, which instantly stung Liu Cailan's eyes.

Her younger brother was a teenager, and he went out to serve in the army before he came of age. He went to the battlefield, killed enemies, and made countless contributions to get his current position. Seeing that he got married at an old age, she was looking forward to her younger brother living a good life in the future.

I didn't expect that she would show her brother this kind of thing.

Chen Yinghong came out of the house after just one look. She didn't even look at Liu Cailan because she thought it was dirty. The backyard was a wasteland with a toilet in the corner. There was no place to hide except the toilet.

The courtyard wall was not very high, so she could see far away when she stood there.

That wild man must have run away long ago.

She returned home and closed the backyard door. Liu Cailan had already gotten up and started packing things in the house. Chen Yinghong said nothing and opened the cupboard to find food to prepare dinner.

On the other side, Zhao Xiuzhi was pulled out by Jing Xian. When Jing Xian let go of her hand, she said unhappily, "Why did you pull me out? There's a wild boar in their house. The wild boar is full of meat. If we kill it, we can share some of the meat. This meat doesn't require a ticket."

Eat, eat, eat. All she thinks about is eating.

Jing Xian was very sure that this kind of single cell movement could not reach the level of spies.

"Why did you suspect I was a spy before?" Jing Xian suddenly asked, almost scaring Zhao Xiuzhi to death.

Zhao Xiuzhi wished that this had never happened. Now that Jingxian asked, she had to answer: "What else is there? Aren't all spies good-looking? They cause bloodshed wherever they go."

"How did you know?" Jing Xian asked calmly.

"That's how I knew it." Zhao Xiuzhi couldn't hold back her temper and wanted to get out of here quickly so she could go to the grocery store.

She didn't expect that Jing Xian didn't go home, but followed her to the grocery store.

Jing Xian raised her eyes and looked at her calmly without saying a word, which made Zhao Xiuzhi very upset.

"I was chatting with Liu Cailan the other day, and she talked about her family. She said her brother and sister-in-law caught a female spy in the factory, and they were rewarded with money for their meritorious service."

Jing Xian's eyes flickered slightly. She didn't expect that he had something to do with Liu Cailan.

"You think of me like that?" Jing Xian said coldly, "At that time, apart from going to the market and the grocery store, I didn't leave the house, right?"

"Tsk, you don't believe it when they say you have long hair but little knowledge. Liu Cailan said that the female spy was strong, skilled in martial arts, and pretty. Think about it yourself, how is she different from you? Aren't all of them right now?" Zhao Xiuzhi said in a very loud voice, as if she was right.

“…”

Jing Xian understood that Liu Cailan might not have said this unintentionally, but had done it on purpose.

Why choose Zhao Xiuzhi?

At that time, she had a conflict with me because of the child. Zhao Xiuzhi was famous for her strength.

She is even more arrogant than Zhao Xiuzhi, but she is much thinner than Zhao Xiuzhi.

It was really easy to lead Zhao Xiuzhi to suspect that he was a spy.

"You don't have to think about it. Anyone who can marry a soldier must go through a political review. Do you think I didn't pass the political review?" Her file was clean, otherwise she wouldn't be able to marry Shang Nanchen even if she wanted to.

Zhao Xiuzhi said stubbornly: "What if someone takes advantage of the situation, for example, by replacing someone else's identity?"

"I grew up in the village. After I grew up, I studied in the pharmacy class in our city, and later I was directly assigned to work in the pharmaceutical factory. Moreover, I am only eighteen. Although my grandmother and my master are gone, my parents are still here, and they come to the pharmaceutical factory to see me every month. Who do you think is so capable of impersonating me?" Jing Xian felt that it was fortunate that Mrs. Wu was in good health, so she was taken in by Captain Wu.

Otherwise, relying on Zhao Xiuzhi's brain, it would be fine if she didn't cause trouble, but if she did...

Captain Wu’s military career came to an end.

"Zhao Xiuzhi, you should talk less in the future, especially when something happens." Jing Xian was kind-hearted for once, and it was all for the sake of Mrs. Wu.

Zhao Xiuzhi immediately lost her temper: "What are you talking about? Why can't I say anything? You control everything in the world and you want to control other people's shit and fart?"

“…”

She didn't bother with her sister-in-law.

Jing Xian glanced over lightly, and Zhao Xiuzhi was frightened again.

She said calmly, "For the sake of your Captain Wu's future, I'm trying to give you some advice. If you don't want to listen, forget it."

Although Zhao Xiuzhi was greedy, lazy, and stupid, she was devoted to her husband and son. Wu Zhanfu's future was more important than her life, and she didn't want to go back to her hometown to dig the fields.

In order to make a living, she inherited her father's teaching job ahead of her older sisters.

Later, I followed Wu Zhanfu here and was assigned to be a primary school teacher.

Now all her sisters in the family want to eat her.

She didn't want to go back.

Although she is not a teacher now, she works in logistics, which is something she can do for the rest of her life.

"I was wrong in that matter. It was also because you matched the spy's skills. I don't want to doubt you. Who made you so good-looking and stronger than me?" Zhao Xiuzhi sincerely thanked Jingxian this time.

She actually knew that sometimes what she said was not listened to and was always disliked by her mother-in-law.

There is really no one like Jing Xian who reminds herself.

She didn't say she was grateful to Jing Xian, but her impression of Jing Xian improved a lot.

Jing Xian was speechless when she heard what Zhao Xiuzhi said.

There's nothing wrong with what he said, but it also feels a little weird.

"Yes, it's because I'm good-looking and strong?" Jing Xian said slowly.

Zhao Xiuzhi nodded immediately and said, "That's right! How could I doubt you? Even if I had ten heads, I wouldn't doubt you."

It turns out it's all her fault.

Jingxian didn't argue with Zhao Xiuzhi. They went to the grocery store. Zhao Xiuzhi saw Jingxian buying things and started buying things too.

She kept talking while she was buying: "Why buy this? It's all lean meat, not much oil, and it costs a lot of money."

"This meat is called heart meat. There's only one pound on the pig, so you're getting a bargain if you buy it." Jing Xian also bought a piece of pork belly, which is most suitable for braised pork.

It's been a busy farming season, so I haven't had a good time cooking.

Jing Xian wanted to give her children some good nourishment.

"It doesn't matter what kind of meat it is, doesn't it taste the same when you put it in your mouth? Buy more fatty meat and you can make oil for eating. You'll just lose money if you buy more of this at home." Zhao Xiuzhi was not very good at cooking, but she knew that fatty meat was good.

"It's easy for those who like to eat fatty meat, but what about those who don't like to eat fatty meat?"

"Is there anyone who can't eat meat these days?" Zhao Xiuzhi not only spoke with disdain, but her expression also showed disdain. "She was not born in an era of famine, otherwise she would have to put dirt in her mouth, not to mention meat."

"That's true."

Jing Xian thought she was right.

The ugliest side of human nature can be seen most clearly at the end of the world.

She felt that compared to those people, the stupid Zhao Xiuzhi was not that annoying.

The two of them went back after shopping.

When Mrs. Wu saw the fat meat Zhao Xiuzhi bought, she said nothing and cut off half a pound of meat to make fried potato chips later. If you want to eat meat in the village, you have to wait until the brigade kills the pigs before each household can get a little bit.

It's nice to eat it twice a year and taste the meat.

In the army, as long as you have a meat ticket, you can at least buy meat.

Old Mrs. Wu was also willing to give it to her family members.

Zhao Xiuzhi was watching with distress: "Mom, this is too much, right? This is just a small amount of meat. If we finish it in one meal, what will we eat next?"

"You don't like eating fatty meat?" Mrs. Wu turned around and asked Zhao Xiuzhi. Before Zhao Xiuzhi could speak, she added, "If you don't like it, then cut less and let Gousheng'er Hongmei and Wu Zhanfu eat some."

Zhao Xiuzhi really had a hard time expressing her feelings. It was difficult for her to say that she liked to eat it.

I could only watch as my mother-in-law cut less meat.

Old Mrs. Wu has plenty of ways to cure Zhao Xiuzhi.

Who made Zhao Xiuzhi stupid?

Most of the time, Mrs. Wu made it impossible for Zhao Xiuzhi to find any fault with her.

Zhao Xiuzhi was a bit stingy and was not very kind to her sisters. In order to make a living, she hid the fact that she was taking over the business from all her sisters. It can be said that she was extremely selfish.

She wants to take advantage of others whenever she can.

It's really good for my son.

For this reason alone, Mrs. Wu endured it.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have never had a quarrel in all these years, all thanks to Zhao Xiuzhi's stupidity.

Old Mrs. Wu disdained to argue with her.

Jingxian cooked a braised pork, and the children were so happy to eat it. Everyone ate until they were full, and then went out to play.

"Do you know Chen Baomin?" Jing Xian chatted with Shang Nanchen only when the child was not at home.

"My deputy battalion commander." Shang Nanchen noticed something was wrong and looked up at Jing Xian, "What's wrong?"

"Today his elder sister came to our house and asked for directions. She brought a lot of things with her, so Zhao Xiuzhi and I took her there. Chen Baomin's lover seemed to have some problems."

Jing Xian said it very tactfully, which scared Shang Nanchen.

Shang Nanchen asked cautiously: "Did you notice anything?"

"She seems to have someone outside."

"Is that all?"

Shang Nanchen breathed a sigh of relief. He thought Chen Baomin’s lover was a spy.

Jing Xian looked up at him suspiciously: "What are you thinking? You don't think Chen Baomin's lover has a problem with his thinking, do you?"

"Almost." Shang Nanchen didn't pay attention to the rest. "Don't tell anyone else about this. What if it's not true?"

Jing Xian said firmly: "Impossible!"

"How can you be so sure?" Shang Nanchen asked, "Did you see it?"

She didn't see it, but she heard it.

Was she going to tell him she had super hearing?
