When Xiao Yuer woke up early in the morning, he said to Zhou Meiying: "Auntie Meiying, I heard someone fighting last night. It was so noisy that Xiao Yuer couldn't sleep..."
When An Hua wanted to cover her son's mouth, it was too late.
The room they lived in was right next to Shi Xiaojun and Chen Qingyin, so they could hear some noises, but they were not as exaggerated as Xiao Yuer said. At least An Hua didn't think the noises she heard were real.
An Hua smiled awkwardly, "Don't talk nonsense, no one is fighting."
"I'm not talking nonsense." Xiao Yu'er was unhappy about being wrongly accused by his mother, and emphasized, "It was just a fight, a thud, and someone crying..."
An Hua covered his mouth and said, "Alright, stop talking."
Zhou Meiying picked up Xiaoyuer and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, Xiaoyuer, I didn't think it through. Next time you come, I'll arrange a quiet room for you, okay?"
Shi Xiaojun and Chen Qingyin, who were inside the room, overheard the conversation outside and wished they could bury their heads back in the quilt and never go out again.
Shi Xiaojun touched his nose and said, "I'm sorry, last night..."
"Don't say it!" Chen Qingyin said hurriedly, "It's so embarrassing."
Shi Xiaojun stopped obediently.
In fact, the two of them didn't even take the last step last night, because Chen Qingyin was in so much pain that she even cried. How could Shi Xiaojun continue?
According to Chen Qingyin's own description, it was like being cut by a knife.
Shi Xiaojun himself didn't know what was wrong, why did it hurt so much as if he was cut by a knife? Does it happen to others too?
Considering the time left for his vacation, he didn't know if he could become a real couple with Chen Qingyin before returning to the army.
Oh, I’m so worried.

The next day after arriving in Yun County, An Hua went to visit Xiao Fangfang. Before returning to the provincial capital, she went there again and stayed at Xiao Fangfang's house for one night.
Xiao An is also in high school. She has grown into a big girl. She is very cute, innocent and simple, but her academic performance is not very good. It is said that she ranks last in the basic test in her class.
However, Geng Biao and Xiao Fangfang did not have too high expectations of her, and the family of three lived a contented and happy life.
An Hua hesitated for a moment and said to Geng Biao, "Did you know that Xiao Cui opened her own shop?"
Geng Biao nodded. "I know. Fangfang has been communicating with her. She mentioned it in her letter."
An Hua said, "She sells electronic watches through a person I know who is her agent. If you want to open a store, I can ask around for you."
Geng Biao was stunned for a moment, and glanced at Xiao Fangfang. "I haven't thought about it in this regard. Our family is not short of money. I don't think it's necessary to go into business. After all, I'm still the deputy director of the factory. It will have a bad influence."
An Hua said: "Xiao Cui's family is not short of money... Of course, it depends on you. Everyone has different pursuits."
Xiao Fangfang glanced at Geng Biao, who understood her meaning and said, "Fangfang, you mean the same thing as me. We both think that as long as we have enough money, it's fine. Although doing business makes money, it also has troubles and risks... What we pursue is to live a simple and peaceful life."
Xiao Fangfang nodded in agreement.
An Hua did not try to persuade him any more. As she had said before, people have different pursuits. Forcing someone who only wants to live a simple life to pursue money may not necessarily have a good effect.
Soon, An Hua returned to the provincial capital with her son.
This time she was away for only a week, but she felt very tired, as if she had finished a long-distance run.
When Xiao came home, seeing that she was exhausted, he let her take a bath.
"It's so hot to take a bath in the hot summer..." An Hua shook her head, "I'll just take a shower."
When she came out of the shower, Xiao Chen came up to her again and massaged her shoulders and back. "Did you miss me, wife?"
"Yeah, I do." An Hua nodded perfunctorily, then sighed with enjoyment, "I feel like I'm getting old, and my body isn't as strong as it was when I was young."
"Nonsense, look at your face, it's as tender as a little girl's, how can you be old?"
An Hua didn't believe his sweet words and asked him to bring the mirror over so that she could look at herself.
Xiao Yu obediently held the mirror in front of her.
"Look, the girl in the mirror is someone's daughter-in-law, she's so beautiful."
An Hua smiled and glared at him, "Stop talking like that, it's corny."
"hey-hey."
An Hua returned her gaze to the mirror. At first glance, the person in the mirror was young and beautiful, without wrinkles. But if you look closely, you can still see that her face does not have as much collagen, and her muscles are not as tight as when she was young, especially around the mouth, where you can already vaguely see the nasolabial folds.
An Hua touched her jawline. Hmm, the line on her chin was not that clear anymore, and a fine line appeared on her neck!
An Hua slammed the mirror away with a look of horror on her face.
"What happened?" Xiao Yu wondered, "Is it a ghost?"
An Hua kept nodding her head. It was like seeing a ghost!
She noticed the aging on her face!
"Old Xiao..." An Hua was about to cry, "I'm an old lady."
