Chapter 242 Someone Failed the Exam Again
The next day after they settled in, He Feng came back from the army on leave. He was a man of few words, but he brought Erhe some brown sugar and two pieces of cotton cloth, as well as fifty yuan.
"Brother, these are too much, keep them for yourself."
"No, I don't have anything to spend money on. I'm giving some to nourish you and some as gifts for the two babies." When it comes to babies, He Feng's heart feels warm. He glanced at Erhe's bulging belly, but felt that this action was too abrupt and inappropriate, so he quickly looked away.
He Zheng was watching from the side. He caught a glimpse of his brother's actions and snorted, "Are you envious now? When my two babies are born, you'll be even more envious of them. You'll be so envious. Who told you not to get married quickly? Just drag it out. When my two babies are old enough to help with cooking, you'll still be alone!"
He Feng: “…”
He clenched his fists, wanting to hit someone.
"He Zheng, don't talk like that," Erhe pulled He Zheng. Although what she said was the truth, she couldn't hurt anyone's heart.
Before she finished speaking, Wang Xiu washed the grapes and brought them out. "He Zheng is right. I've said it before. If you don't want to get married, then work hard to make money for me. The money you earn will be used for He Zheng and Erhe's baby in the future."
"mom!"
Erhe is simply outrageous. How can someone talk like that?
He Feng raised his eyebrows and said, "I feel that I am not welcome here. I will go back to the army first."
There's no place for him in this place...
When He Feng walked to the gate of the compound, he bumped into someone head-on. Liang Wenwen's school was about to start, and she knew Erhe was coming, so she came to see her before school started. She was holding a small box of cream cake in her hand. This thing was quite rare, and she wanted to bring it to Erhe to try.
As a result, he bumped into He Feng at the door, the cake fell to the ground, and the cream became a mess.
He Feng looked at the cream, then at Liang Wenwen, "I'm sorry, I'll compensate you."
"Forget it."
Liang Wenwen was a generous girl. She waved her hand and said, "It's a pity. This cream cake is in limited supply. Grocery stores only sell it one day a week. Forget it. You didn't do it on purpose."
He Feng stared at the cream cake and said nothing.
Liang Wenwen clapped her hands regretfully, and saw that there was still some cream on her hands. After thinking about it, she put her fingers in her mouth and licked them.
He Feng was stunned when he saw this action, and then looked at the white mass on the ground with some red things embedded in it.
Judging from Liang Wenwen’s actions, I guess the cake is delicious. I’ll give her one as a reward when I get the chance.
He Feng was not the kind of person who would always say nice things. He put his hands in his pockets and left.
…
Inside the room, Erhe was talking to He Zheng about buying a camera. It suddenly occurred to her that if she had a camera, she could take pictures of her baby without having to wait until the hundredth day to go to a photo studio. She thought it was meaningful to record the baby's childhood so that she could show it to her children when they grow up.
"Okay, I'll go buy it this afternoon."
Cameras are really not cheap in the market nowadays, one costs at least two hundred yuan, which is not affordable for an average family. He Zheng didn't even blink. If his wife wants one, he will just buy it.
Wang Xiu listened without saying anything, leaving the young couple to discuss their affairs. Then something occurred to her: "Do you want me to give you some money?"
Speaking of money, she slapped her thigh again and said, "Look at my memory. Your father specifically told me before we came here. Having a new baby is a big happy event for our family. We will pay for Erhe's hospitalization and conditioning. Mom made some money making clothes last year, and it's just right to use it to welcome the two little babies. And Erhe, just tell me what you want to eat and I'll make it for you."
"You earned that money yourself, so you can save it. He Zheng and I don't need any of it." Erhe said.
Wang Xiu said, "What you have is yours. Your father and I should pay for it. Let's put it this way, He Zheng, then you go buy a camera. When you come back, you can go to the hospital. You have an appointment with Erhe's elder sister to go to the hospital to take some photos."
"Mom, that's called a B-ultrasound. It can show the baby's development in your belly."
Wang Xiu said, "I know, it's that word... Anyway, it sounds weird..."
Erhe was stunned, and thought of something, but didn't say anything.
"Erhe, I'm here to see you——"
As they were talking, Liang Wenwen came over. The cake she brought for Erhe was smashed, so she had to come empty-handed. Liang Wenwen knew Erhe wouldn't mind, so she didn't mention the smashed cake. She came over happily, lowered her head, and put her ear against Erhe's round belly.
"Two little babies, do you miss your godmother? I'm here to see you."
The amazing thing is that the two little guys in her belly actually reacted, their little fists and feet were moving, pulling her belly this way and that.
"They heard it, haha, it's so funny,"
Liang Wenwen put her hand on Erhe's belly, moving it very gently, with curiosity written all over her pretty face.
After interacting with the babies for a while, Liang Wenwen withdrew her hand. Erhe pulled down her clothes. Liang Wenwen said with a bitter face, "It's a pity that school will start soon. Erhe, I can't watch the babies being born. I will miss them. Also, I wish you a smooth delivery in advance and two healthy and lively babies."
"Well, I'll send you photos of the babies when they're born."
"Okay, it's settled then."
Liang Wenwen came over and Wang Xiu went to cook vermicelli and eggs for her. This was the best snack to entertain guests here.
He Zheng was thinking about buying a camera, so he said something to Erhe and rode his bike out.
His jeep is too conspicuous. Unless he is with Erhe, he usually rides a bicycle when he goes out alone. He does this for no other reason than to avoid others saying that they are using Commander Nie's car. Although this car is not Commander Nie's, there is no need to create unnecessary trouble.
Seeing that no one else was in the room, Liang Wenwen pulled Erhe and said, "There's something I think it's better to tell you."
"What's wrong?" Liang Wenwen was a generous girl, and it was rare to see her hesitant, so Erhe said, "If there's anything between us that's hard to say, just say it."
"It's Su Chuan. He took the college entrance examination again in July, but still failed. Chen Yuqin has been staying on the big farm in the north for almost half a year. Before she went north, she seemed to have asked her parents to take care of Su Chuan. Now Su Chuan has failed again, and he probably won't take the college entrance examination next year. He either goes back to the countryside, or..." Liang Wenwen didn't finish.
Erhe made a rough guess, "Do you think he will come to see my dad again?"
Liang Wenwen frowned. "It's hard to say. He hasn't gotten into any trouble in the past six months. He's probably been so motivated and focused on studying. But he still didn't pass the exam. I can't guarantee he'll go to extremes. I'm telling you this now, so just listen. Be careful. It would be best if nothing happens."
"Okay, I understand. I'll pay attention."
Erhe stroked her belly gently. Su Chuan had been quiet for a long time. If he came out to cause trouble at this time, don't blame her for being rude. There were so many farms in the north anyway, and there were many places that needed to be reclaimed. The two of them could work together and make a contribution to the development of the Great Northern Wilderness.
