Xu Niannian was feeling very comfortable being pinched, so she naturally felt a little happier:

"I don't feel wronged. I don't want my man's name to be associated with another woman as gossip. This time, although there will still be people spreading it, the nature of it will be different."

Lu Huaijin pinched the soles of her feet:

"Are you a man?"

Xu Niannian just felt an unbearable itchiness and pain where she was pinched, so she stepped on his knee with her foot, and water droplets splashed on him.

He was wearing only a tank top on his upper body and a pair of large shorts on his lower body.

Her foot stepped on Lu Huaijin's knee, the white and brown collided, Lu Huaijin's throat rolled, and he went straight up along her legs:

"It wasn't yesterday, it's time for today."

Xu Niannian was surrounded by his breath and didn't even have the strength to stop herself before she was kissed.

The scene of him saying in front of everyone that he liked her flashed through her mind, and she suddenly had no power to resist and even became more submissive.

Lu Huaijin obviously noticed something. His wife was no longer so shy and became even more excited:

"Wife, wife, you are so nice."

Xu Niannian was distracted by the whispers and pushed him weakly with her arm:

"What are you doing? Hurry up."

Lu Huaijin gritted his teeth:

"It won't be soon. Give me a baby. I see you like children very much."

Xu Niannian finally opened her eyes after being tortured:

"Humph, I don't know who said I'd give birth a year later, are you going to slap yourself in the face now?"

Lu Huaijin didn't care. In front of his wife, he slapped her in the face. What's the big deal?

"Give me a class and let you be the class monitor in the future."

Xu Niannian kicked over softly:

"Who wants to be the monitor?"

He caught me again.

There are 8 to 10 people in a class. Does Lu Huaijin want to work himself to death?

"I'm afraid you can't afford it."

Lu Huaijin's eyes brightened again, and he kissed her on the cheek again:

"No, I will work hard to make money, and I won't let you suffer."

That night, Lu Huaijin seemed to experience a different kind of happiness than before.

The newly made bed didn't stop working until dawn.

When Xu Niannian woke up again, Lu Huaijin was already dressed neatly and holding a bowl of porridge:

"Are you hungry? Eat something?"

Xu Niannian felt her stomach and realized she was indeed hungry. She looked at the time and it was already eight o'clock.

"Where are Lu Ze and the others?"

"They ate in the yard. I told them to go to class after they finished eating."

Xu Niannian looked at the high-spirited man and rubbed her aching waist.

The difference between people is sometimes greater than that between people and dogs.

Perhaps he noticed that Xu Niannian was feeling uncomfortable, so he put another pillow behind her:

"Drink more water."

As Lu Huaijin spoke, he handed over a white porcelain cup.

Her throat was indeed very dry, so she drank the whole bottle in one gulp.

But when she thought about who made her so thirsty, she couldn't help but glare at him.

Her face is also red, and she is even speaking in a hoarse voice!

Lu Huaijin let her glare at him. Knowing that she was shy, he stopped teasing her and rubbed her hair:

"If you still feel uncomfortable after eating, just sleep for a while."

He looked at the watch again and went to exercise.

Not long after Lu Huaijin left, there was a knock on the door.

Xu Niannian hurriedly got up from the bed and found a thick nightgown to change into.

I have slept till now, if this gets out people will gossip about me again.

He walked quickly to the door and opened it. Standing outside the door was the sister-in-law who had come to their house for dinner yesterday. They came just to bring some food and to get to know each other.

He invited people in to sit down but they didn't want to sit down. He just left after delivering the things.

Three or four people came one after another this morning. Xu Niannian didn't close the door and just left it open.

In the afternoon, holding a basket of vegetables.

As soon as he entered the door, he glanced at Xu Niannian timidly:

"Hello, my name is Wang Hongmei. I'm bringing you some shepherd's purse that I picked from the mountain this morning."

She is older than Xu Niannian, but not as tall as Captain Lu. She doesn't often interact with people, and her fingers are constantly fingering the corners of her clothes.

Xu Niannian glanced at the pile of shepherd's purse and took it:

"Thank you for your trouble. I'll just make some shepherd's purse dumplings for you."

As he said this, he fell into the kitchen. Sister Li from next door had heard people coming in and out of the Lu family all morning, and she also came to visit them out of curiosity:

"Hey Xiao Xu, your house is really lively today."

Xu Niannian saw Sister Li coming over, went into the house, got the teapot, and poured three cups of tea:

"Come, have some flower tea. I just made it recently."

Wang Hongmei retracted her feet that were about to leave. She really wanted to stay here for a while.

The three of them sat around the tea table. Xu Niannian felt the pain in his waist relieved after drinking the tea, so he rubbed it inadvertently.

When Sister Li saw this, she jokingly said:

"Is your Captain Lu very powerful? How many times do you do it in one night?"

Xu Niannian didn't expect that one action would expose herself, and her face turned red.

Sister Li tutted her tongue again:

"Why are you still as shy as an unmarried young wife?"

Wang Hongmei murmured beside her:

"Captain Lu is really good to his wife."

Sister Li knew a lot, so she also started to praise him:

"This is true. I live next door to them. Captain Lu gets up early to cook and do the laundry."

Xu Niannian interrupted Sister Li:

“I still cook most of the time.”

"Okay, okay, you did it."

Wang Hongmei felt bitter after hearing this and murmured:

"You two are a couple."

Sister Li seemed to suddenly remember something, she kept silent, lowered her head and drank a sip of water to hide her embarrassment.

Wang Hongmei didn't stay long. After resting for a while, she said she had to go back to cook for the children.

After Sister Li and the others left, she told Xu Niannian:

"Wang Hongmei is quite introverted. She happens to live next door to us. She usually speaks softly in her home. The occasional noise we hear is her quarreling with her husband, Deputy Battalion Commander Shen."

Pause:

"Sometimes you can still hear her crying. Her child is three years old now and she doesn't go out very often."

Xu Niannian was stunned after hearing this:

"Why?"

This time, Sister Li lowered her voice even lower:

"She wasn't like this when she first came. Although she was quite introverted, she would always smile shyly whenever she saw you, unlike now when she has a sad face."

"We have a military wife named Wang Xiuying here. Her husband died just a year ago. She lives next door to them, so she often comes to Deputy Battalion Commander Shen for help."

"I feel like that's why they always quarreled, because they often mentioned Wang Xiuying and other things during the quarrels. Of course, these are just my guesses."
