Chapter 28 Bicycles and Watches



"Yes, do you think they are good wives and mothers? They only care about dressing themselves up and saving troubles. They don't care whether their husbands are tired or not. The husbands are working outside. We must take care of the housework. How can we order men around? They spend all their money on vanishing cream, clothes and so on. What a waste."

"Sister Sufen, you should also be nicer to yourself." Su Qianqian said.

Wu Sufen immediately said, "I treat myself very well. I have enough food to eat, warm clothes to wear, and now I have such a nice house to live in. Isn't that good?"

"Then do you want to go out to work?" She remembered that family members accompanying the army could be assigned some simple jobs if necessary.

"Work? What? I can't do that!" Wu Sufen immediately shook her head. "If I go out to work, who will take care of my husband and children? No, I'll just stay at home and take care of them."

Su Qianqian nodded and said nothing more.

It is difficult for her to correct Wu Sufen's thoughts, so there is no need for her to correct them, just respect her.

After washing the dishes, she went to the room and got some vanishing cream, "Sister Sufen, come, put some cream on your hands, otherwise your hands will be very uncomfortable."

It was directly applied to Wu Sufen's hands, and Wu Sufen had no time to refuse.

"My hands are used to working. They are not so delicate that they don't need to be wiped."

"It's all on your hands, wipe it off, don't waste it. And you helped me wash so many dishes, you must wipe it off."

Wu Sufen had never used vanishing cream, but she was actually a little tempted. She had always heard about it, but she couldn't bear to buy it. After all, one box was quite expensive. Her husband's monthly salary was 68 yuan, so she really couldn't bear to buy it.

After rubbing it on the back of her hands, she felt that her hands became fragrant, and she didn't know if it was her illusion, but she felt that her hands seemed not so dry anymore.

She couldn't help but laugh, "It smells so good." Her smile was a little shy.

"I'm going back first."

"Okay, thank you Sister Sufen for helping me clean up."

Su Qianqian sent her to the door and found that she was carefully smelling her hands on the way back. Joy overflowed from her.

I hope she can be better to herself, instead of just being satisfied with the small demands of having enough food and clothing.

"Thank you for your hard work today." Cheng Yue said to Su Qianqian.

"It's very hard work. My back and waist aches, and my hands are sore. How much are you going to pay me?" She stretched out her hand and shook her legs, looking very playful, and Cheng Yue was so infected that he smiled.

Cheng Yue doesn't smile most of the time and looks serious, but this smile makes him look even more handsome. No wonder Zhou Yun likes him so much. Who wouldn't be confused?

The handsome brother has a nice body, he is simply the man of my dreams!

He pulled out a hundred-dollar bill and asked, "Is that enough?"

Su Qianqian immediately revealed a money-grubber smile and reached out to take it. "That's enough, that's enough. Do you have a lot of tickets? If you don't need them, just give them to me."

Anyway, Cheng Yue is a grown man and he doesn’t need many of his votes, so they can play a big role in her hands.

"Okay, I'll find all those tickets for you."

"Do you have a watch ticket? Or a bike ticket?"

These two things are more needed now. Riding a bicycle is quite cool in this era. As for the car, there is no rush. She can buy it when she earns some money. Anyway, reform and opening up will be coming soon.

"I have a bicycle. You can ride it if you want. I can't ride it now. I'll ask for a watch ticket for you." Cheng Yue said, then he remembered something, "Can you read a watch?"

"If you teach me, I will be able to do it, right?"

Cheng Yue nodded, his lips slightly curled up, thinking that Su Qianqian was very smart and would be able to learn it after being taught once.

"But I can't teach you to ride a bike now."

"It's okay, let Cheng Yuan teach me."

"?" It's Cheng Yuan again? Should he transfer him away?

Su Qianqian can ride a bicycle, but she has to show some courtesy, otherwise Cheng Yue will definitely become suspicious.

"Let Lin Xuemei teach you. She can do it too. Aren't you two on good terms?"

"Okay, I'll go find her tomorrow."

She stretched and said, "I'm so tired. I'm going to take a shower and go to bed."

She has gained some weight recently, but her waist is still slender. When she stretched, a small part of her waist was revealed, which had a certain visual impact. Especially since she is now a lot whiter than before, one can seem to feel the softness and slenderness of her waist.

He looked at his palm and felt that he could hold it with one hand.

Su Qianqian naturally didn't know what he was thinking. She went to check on the three little kids first. Seeing that they were not hungry, she felt relieved. She asked them to wash their faces, brush their teeth and wash their feet, and then she went to wash her hair and take a bath.

After spending the whole day in the kitchen, it smells like cooking fumes and needs to be cleaned thoroughly.

After this meal, word quickly spread throughout the compound about how delicious the cooking skills of Captain Cheng’s wife, Su Qianqian, were.

"Isn't Captain Cheng's wife from the countryside? How good can her cooking be? Not really."

"I also heard from Lin Xuemei that it was delicious. Oh, yes, Lin Xuemei let me taste the pickled cucumbers made by Su Qianqian, and they were indeed delicious."

"Didn't I say before that she was a shrew in the countryside? She was mean to everyone except her mother's family, and she also abused her three children."

"By the way, she also said that she was the one who got married to Captain Cheng because of her persistence. Otherwise, how could such an outstanding man like Captain Cheng be interested in her?"

Another woman came over to chat about gossip.

"I've seen Su Qianqian. She's pretty, but a little thin. But she's amazing. She gave birth to three children at once. I can't believe she's so easy to give birth to. Her breasts are small and her butt isn't big either."

"It may be that it is not easy to take care of three children, and life in the countryside is hard, so it is normal to lose weight. Now I think I can regain my weight here."

At this time, Su Qianqian and Lin Xuemei happened to come over, and Lin Xuemei was pushing a bicycle.

Everyone stopped talking immediately. However, the one who had tasted the pickled cucumbers walked up to Su Qianqian with a smile and said, "Mrs. Cheng, do you have any more pickled cucumbers? I want a jar."

"Yes, where do you live? I'll send it to you later."

"I live in that building over there." She pointed, "Third floor, 301."

"Okay."

"Where are you going?"

"I want to learn how to ride a bicycle. Let Xuemei teach me."

"Ah! This thing is not easy to learn. It's easy to fall. Be careful."

Su Qianqian nodded, "Well, I'll be careful, we'll go over first."

When they arrived at the open space, Lin Xuemei said to her, "Don't be afraid, I will hold you from behind. But it's inevitable to fall when learning to ride a bicycle. Generally, you will get the hang of it after falling once or twice."

"Haha, I have thick skin and I won't fall."

"How can you be considered thick-skinned? I feel like you're fairer than me. But Qianqian, the vanishing cream you gave me is really different. I've only used it twice, and I feel like my skin has gotten better. Am I overthinking this? Take a look."
