Feng Xiaojun became serious when he heard this. Although he had not seen Su Ying yet, he heard from other comrades that his sister-in-law was very beautiful and petite.
He thought for a moment and said with a smile: “Brother Lu, if my sister-in-law goes, this matter will be easy.
Go back and ask your sister-in-law whether she wants a job with a higher salary or an easier job."
"Do you even need to ask? Just find someone who works the day shift. I'm worried about her working at night. Besides, staying up late is so tiring."
In Feng Xiaojun's heart, Lu Dongsheng had never been so considerate. He listened from the side and couldn't hide the smile on his face.
Seeing that he was staring at him and smiling, Lu Dongsheng's face became serious.
"Why don't you say something? Why are you staring at me and laughing?"
"Brother Lu, do you know what these new recruits say about you in private?"
"Tell me the truth about what you said about me. Did you join them in talking about me behind my back?"
...
...
"No, they said behind your back that you had a sullen face and were as cold as the glaciers in Kunlun Mountain that could freeze people to death. But I found that you have changed a lot since you came back this time. There is expression on your face. In the morning, I saw that the corners of your mouth were raised. It's different now that you have a wife."
Of course Lu Dongsheng knew that he had been sulking before because he wanted these little bastards to train well and not turn around and become weak and unable to even perform a military boxing properly.
"Don't talk nonsense, I'm talking to you about work."
"Okay, leave it to me. I'll call my dad tonight. If I can get this done, you'll owe me a favor. You'll have to treat me to a meal."
"Eat, eat, eat. All you think about is eating. Are you a pig?"
"Who told me to have a big belly?"
Lu Dongsheng really had no way to deal with him. Among their group of people, Feng Xiaojun's family was the best-off, but he was the only one who ate the most and used a bowl to eat. What kind of era was this? His parents would mail some biscuits and chocolates to this kid every now and then.
He has never asked anyone for help since he joined the team, but it is worth it for his wife.
Lu Dongsheng knew Feng Xiaojun's ability, but he was still a little worried, so he reminded her again: "Remember to find her an easier job."
"knew."
Li Xiumei was turning the soil in the yard in the morning. She also brought a hoe to Su Ying. Su Ying's soul was not used to it, but as soon as she picked up the hoe, she felt familiar.
When Lu Dongsheng came back, she had rolled up her trouser legs to reveal her two slender white ankles. She was wearing a straw hat on her head and had her sleeves rolled up at her wrists as she turned the soil over seriously.
He strode over quickly and said, "Who asked you to work? Aren't you tired after sitting in the car for several days in a row?"
Su Ying straightened up and panted: "You're back, and Sister Li said she wanted to plant some vegetables, so I thought about turning the land. I have nothing to do anyway."
Lu Dongsheng took the hoe from her hand and said, "Alright, wipe your face and take a rest. I'll go to the cafeteria to get some food."
Once Su Ying got busy, she felt that time passed very quickly. All she thought about all day long was eating, so she had to find something to do quickly.
Lu Dongsheng came back with the meal. He sat on a small stool and said nothing.
Su Ying said, "Mrs. Li said she's going to the county town to buy vegetable seedlings this afternoon. Can I go?"
He knew that there was a black market these days and that many people were engaged in speculative business, and she shared the same idea.
I heard that if you are not caught, it will be fine. But if you are caught, you will be criticized, fined, your goods will be confiscated, and even the people around you will suffer.
I just happened to go to the county town for a walk today to find out what's going on.
"You can go. If you want to go, you can go for a walk. There is a bus at the door. It takes 20 minutes to get there. You can take the bus back in the afternoon. You can buy whatever you want."
Lu Dongsheng shoveled a few more mouthfuls of rice, stood up and walked to the suitcase, took out the passbook he had given her last time, and walked to the door and locked it.
"This is the same passbook I used last time. There's about 200 yuan in change in it. This is the gift money we received in our hometown this time. My parents gave it to us before we left.
We are married now, so I'll give the money to you. This envelope contains some cloth, oil and grain coupons that I saved.
Since you are following me, I will try my best to be a good husband. As long as I, Lu Dongsheng, have something to eat, I will never let you down."
Su Ying hesitated for a moment and reached out to take it: "I will keep a good account."
Lu Dongsheng frowned: "Do you really want to be so clear with me? Besides, if I peel you, I'm still busy after eating, so I don't want to bother with you."
He lowered his head and ate unhappily. Su Ying took away half of the rice and meat in his bowl. She was not blind, and there were more meat and vegetables in her lunch box than in his.
Lu Dongsheng glared at her, and Su Ying glared back: "Why are you glaring at me? Let's switch places next time. I can't finish all this food."
She doesn't want to get too fat.
Lu Dongsheng gritted his teeth and said, "Why can't you talk to me nicely for one day? You just talk back and your little mouth keeps chattering. I think you deserve a kiss."
Su Ying pretended to be angry and said nothing. Lu Dongsheng put the meat back into her bowl, ate a few bites, washed the bowl, and went to the yard to clean up his pile of wood.
After a few minutes, Chen Qi also came to help.
Chen Qi had a cigarette dangling from the corner of his mouth, and the sound of ping-pong came from the yard.
When Su Ying and Li Xiumei went into the city, they saw clearly that Lu Dongsheng was making a table and had already installed the legs.
This guy is pretty fast.
Su Ying ignored him. Lu Dongsheng looked up at her back and reminded her, "Remember to buy two sheets of sandpaper when you come back."
Su Ying didn't look back, her tone sounded fierce: "I know."
Chen Qi listened and smiled: "Oh, your wife seems to be angry. I didn't realize that your wife has such a bad temper."
"Go away, stop talking about my wife."
"You're protecting her right away. It's normal to love your wife when you first get married. But later on, you'll quarrel to the death and get tired of each other."
"You and Sister Li are like this?"
"We won't. We are fine. Even though my wife has offended a bunch of people, this family can't do without her."
Lu Dongsheng smiled. Chen Qi was also a good man and was very tolerant of his wife.
Lu Dongsheng felt that Su Ying seemed to be ready to leave him at any time.
"Old Chen, let me ask you something, did you give all your salary to Sister Li, or did you keep some for yourself?
When you gave money to Sister Li, was she happy? Did she settle accounts with you?
"I give all my monthly salary to my wife, leaving only two dollars for cigarettes. I am the only one who earns money in the family, so why should I divide it so carefully?"
That's right, why make such a clear distinction?
Su Ying made it very clear what she was doing with him.
"That's right. My wife and I made it very clear. I even gave her my savings book from before we got married. Guess what?"
"What? She took it all?"
"She could have taken it all, but she didn't want it. She was going to the city with Mrs. Li today. She took the money, but she said she would keep a record of it. When she earns money, they will each have half for living expenses.
Do you think this is normal?"
He is usually alone and has money but nowhere to spend it. If two people live together, they don't know how to communicate, so he decided to ask Chen Qi.
