Chapter 125 Does he care about people’s lives, or does he want to hit her on purpose?
It was not surprising that Jiangnan was adopted by Chen Yi. People in those days were very simple and honest. Captain Jiang died to save him. If he had any conscience, he would have adopted the child.
When the political commissar of the Second Regiment learned that Chen Yi was going to marry his aunt Jiangnan, his face was full of smiles. Both of them were getting married for the second time, so neither of them should look down on the other. In fact, it would be beneficial for Deputy Battalion Commander Chen's future if he got married.
After the matter was satisfactorily resolved, Chen Yi took a few days off and accompanied Su Xiaoxiao and Jiangnan to the place where they were to be educated youth. He also brought all her things with him and got a marriage certificate.
In the blink of an eye, it was October, the weather was getting cooler, and Chen Tang planned to go to the city to buy things.
Li Hong had just gotten married and had some new things to buy, so she took a ride with them.
The tractors in the village gradually drove out. A maintenance worker looked up at the direction they left and walked towards the military area.
"Xu Ting recently came to work in the art troupe. In June, we had too few people assigned to the troupe, so we asked her to come back to work. Speaking of which, I heard that Shi Bing was planning to quit the troupe."
Shen Tang wondered, "Why did she quit the group?"
Li Hong lowered her voice and said, "They say they are getting married again, but who knows."
Shen Tang listened to it, and after a while, they arrived in the city.
The two of them went to the department store first. Chen Tang mainly wanted to buy a few blankets for the winter. He took a look and saw that they were all thin blankets for the autumn and winter seasons. Thinking that they could be used by children, he bought a few.
The fabric for children is relatively soft, but Chen Tang doesn't know how to make it, so he usually spends some money to ask other sisters-in-law to help him make it. Seeing that there were autumn long-sleeved cotton-padded jackets and coats for sale nearby, Chen Tang gestured to the figures of Aunt Zhang and my aunt and bought a few pieces.
The weather was dry in autumn, so Chen Tang bought a few more boxes of clam oil.
Thinking of Su Xiaoxiao and Deputy Battalion Commander Chen's upcoming marriage, Chen Tang left the department store and went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy a towel, a bag of brown sugar, and some biscuits and snacks to send to his second sister-in-law's house and his parents.
There were a lot of people crowding around, especially when the salesperson took out canned fruits and velvet-lined Liberation shoes, more people rushed over.
It was obvious that these shoes were in short supply, and Shen Tang had to work very hard to get three pairs.
Li Hong rarely left the military area on weekdays, so she didn't need to buy this kind of shoes. She saw that Chen Tang originally wanted to buy six pairs, but the salesperson limited the purchase to three pairs per person, so she helped Chen Tang buy three pairs.
The people next to them also wanted to buy more, but a pair of shoes required an industrial ticket and more than ten yuan, so they simply couldn't afford it.
In other words, Chen Tang was mentally prepared and prepared a lot of tickets when he came to the city this time.
Six pairs of shoes, two pairs of size thirty-seven, three pairs of size forty-one, and one pair of size forty-two.
Li Hong knew Chen Tang's size: "You didn't buy it for yourself?"
Chen Tang squatted under the tree next to him and folded all the shoes: "Two pairs for my parents, two pairs for my two grandfathers, one pair for He Xu, and one pair for Aunt Zhang. I haven't started working yet. Aunt Zhang usually buys groceries for me. She is old and can't stand cold feet."
Now everyone is wearing cloth shoes made by themselves. Such shoes are quite warm at home, but they cannot be taken out in winter, as they will easily get wet when going out.
Aunt Zhang came here without any preparation. She was afraid that it would be cold, so she bought a few things to deal with the emergency.
Li Hong: "Oh, I really envy you. I wish my mother-in-law and her family were so easy to talk to."
Before getting married, she went with her husband's family to meet their parents. Her mother-in-law was extremely critical. Later, when she heard that her family was well off, her attitude became better.
Later she found out that her mother-in-law had long had her eyes on another girl in the compound, who was a classmate of her husband and had long liked him. She said that as long as she married into the family, she would give her mother-in-law a job, and her sister-in-law would not have to go to the countryside as an educated youth.
If she hadn't said that she could give her sister-in-law a spot in the art troupe, I'm afraid the two of them might not have been able to get their marriage certificate.
Chen Tang heard Li Hong talk about the troubles in her husband's family, but she had no way to comfort her. After all, everyone has their own difficulties.
If Li Hong really minded, she would not have married her current husband. She is just complaining verbally, but she doesn't actually need anyone's advice in her heart.
After packing up his things, Chen Tang planned to go to the post office to mail the things in his hands.
Li Hong was bored so she didn't go with her, but went to the state-owned restaurant to reserve a seat first.
Chen Tang had just finished and hadn’t taken two steps when a terrified voice suddenly came from behind him: “Get out of the way!”
Chen Tang subconsciously dodged and saw the man on the bicycle suddenly fall to the ground.
He staggered to his feet, holding his butt with his teeth bared, and heard an extremely clean and clear voice: "Comrade, are you okay?"
The man turned his head and saw that the girl was wearing a light blue long skirt. Her long hair was tied into a thick braid and hung on one side. Her facial features were delicate, her eyebrows and eyes were like autumn water, and her lips were red without any makeup. She was so beautiful that it made people's eyes light up.
"No, it's okay. Didn't I bump into you just now?"
Chen Tang felt relieved when he heard him say that everything was fine, as long as it wasn't a scam.
"Since you're okay, I'll leave first."
Shen Tang picked up the bag and walked towards the state-owned restaurant without even looking at him.
This guy was riding his bicycle around in the downtown area. Either he was a heartless person or he did it on purpose.
The man didn’t expect Chen Tang to just walk away like that.
He hurriedly pushed his bicycle and followed: "Comrade, I almost hit you just now, how about this, I treat you to a meal?"
Shen Tang paused and glanced sideways at the man.
The man had a delicate appearance, and wore a watch on his wrist, a white shirt, military pants, and a pair of glasses, looking like a typical administrator.
"Comrade, this place is so close to the post office, and there are people all around. You are riding your bicycle recklessly. Do you not care about people's lives, or are you coming here on purpose?"
A hint of surprise flashed beneath the man's glasses.
He quickly explained: "Comrade, you misunderstood me. There was a problem with the brakes on my bicycle. I was nervous and bumped into you by mistake. I sincerely want to apologize to you."
Chen Tang didn't want to talk to a stranger. After the last experience, she was really afraid that another human trafficker would come.
"Then I accept your apology. My friend is waiting for me, so I won't say any more to you."
The man did not pester her. He stood there and called her twice: "Comrade, my name is Yang Cheng, and I am an employee of the fertilizer factory. If you have any problems in the future, you can go to the fertilizer factory to find me."
Chen Tang nodded casually and quickly stepped into the state-owned restaurant.
Yang Cheng took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it. Amidst the smoke, he looked at Chen Tang's back and smiled.
It’s really beautiful.
