"Sister-in-law Han, don't label me like that. You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. I'm spending my man's money. I'm not stealing or robbing. It's my freedom to buy whatever I want."
"If that's the case, then there's no point in opening gold shops. They open shops to do business so that people can buy things. Just because you can't afford it doesn't mean that others can't afford it."
Yun Jin pressed on aggressively: "I hope this is the last time I see you come to the political commissar to complain."
"You...you spendthrift woman!" Sister-in-law Han was furious.
He Tingchuan said to Commander Han, "Look at what your sister-in-law is saying. Even if my wife is a spendthrift, it's my choice to let her spend money. When has it ever been your business to interfere in the affairs of the He family?"
The summoned regimental commander, Han, looked embarrassed: "Don't take your sister-in-law seriously. She's from the countryside and doesn't know anything. All she knows is how to embarrass herself."
Yun Jin was displeased: "Commander Han, please don't say that. I'm also from the countryside. I know how to mind your own business and not interfere in other people's affairs. It seems that only Sister-in-law Han is being unreasonable."
When Sister-in-law Han saw that Commander Han was already keeping a low profile and didn't dare to shout, she cursed Yun Jin and his wife's ancestors for eighteen generations in her heart.
Commander Han said irritably, "Apologize to their sister-in-law! Why are you always so idle? Go back to your hometown and farm instead of causing me trouble!"
Upon hearing that she was to return to her hometown, Sister-in-law Han became obedient.
She must be crazy to go back to her hometown to farm. She works herself to the bone and still can't get enough to eat. It's nothing like the comfort of living with a soldier in the family compound, where you get a monthly salary, can eat government-subsidized grain, and can even eat meat two or three times a month.
I can still save about twenty or thirty yuan on me.
Hmph, it's just a gold ring and a gold bracelet, who can't afford that?
Within two days, all the young wives and older women in the compound were wearing gold rings, necklaces, and bracelets.
Of course, not everyone has them; most people have one or two.
Moreover, they all went to the same store where Yun Jin bought her ring, just because Yun Jin said to Sister Li, "The first store that sells rings has a bad attitude and looks down on people."
So Sister Li went to another store. When they asked her to come over and look at rings, Sister Li said, "I won't buy from you. You look down on me."
The saleswoman selling the rings: "......"
Because of Li's actions, when she later showed off her ring, she kept telling others how gentle and considerate the saleswoman at the store where she bought the ring was, how good her service was, and how she even gave her a red string as a gift.
I mainly went there because of the red string.
In this era when even red string is a precious commodity, a single red string can be used to tie the hair of the little girl in the family and braid it into pretty braids.
Every little bit helps.
Seeing the jewelry store across the street teeming with customers, and then looking at his own store with hardly any customers, the manager, after finding out what had happened, scolded the infuriating saleswoman and sent her to do something else, while arranging for his own niece to come in and sell rings.
The saleswoman was so angry she had nowhere to cry.
He said that next time he sees the culprit, he'll tear her mouth apart.
Yun Jin hasn't had time to go out lately. Little Niangao is a bit fussy in February, so Yun Jin doesn't dare to run around. She's focused on taking care of the child and is starting to learn how to be a qualified new mother.
He didn't dare to be greedy and ate an extra persimmon, which caused Xiao Niangao to have diarrhea after drinking milk, which made He Tingchuan very distressed.
Later, I heard from Sister-in-law Gao that breastfeeding mothers shouldn't eat just anything, as the baby's stomach can't handle it and it's easy for the baby to get diarrhea.
To atone for her mistake, Yun Jin decided to wash the diapers that Xiao Niangao had used herself, so that He Tingchuan wouldn't have a headache when he came back and saw a basin full of diapers.
Who knew that she vomited several times after washing only a couple of items. Sister Li couldn't bear to see her like that, so she had her hold the little rice cake and quickly washed it clean, without vomiting at all.
Yun Jin said with shame, "I'm not a big eater."
Sister-in-law Li retorted, "You're not just greedy, you're lucky to have Commander He spoiling you. I used to be like that too, and I still had to force myself to wash diapers. If I didn't wash them, no one would help me."
Yun Jin thought about it and agreed; she still hadn't been forced to that point.
To put it bluntly, it's all because He Tingchuan spoiled them.
When He Tingchuan returned, he was a little surprised to find that the diapers had been washed clean. He said to Yun Jin, "Didn't I tell you that you just need to take care of the child? I'll wash the diapers myself."
"It was Sister Li who helped me." Yun Jin said guiltily, "I originally wanted to wash myself, but I couldn't hold it in and threw up a few times. Sister Li couldn't bear to see me like that and helped me."
"Next time you bring me to wash, don't bother Sister Li. She's already doing well enough to lend a hand. Don't tire her out." He Tingchuan looked at her little hands, which were red, and touched them. Her cold little hands made his heart ache.
He Tingchuan casually put the cold little hands into his pockets to warm them up: "It's cold outside and the water is cold. Don't go into the water anymore. It's not good for you to go into the water during your postpartum period."
Yun Jin kindly reminded me, "I'm out of postpartum confinement."
He Tingchuan raised an eyebrow: "Why do I seem to remember there being a saying about double postpartum confinement?"
Yun Jin asked in surprise, "Are you planning to make me have to do double confinement?"
He Tingchuan said regretfully, "We originally planned to do this, but you were too diligent today, so you can only have a 52-day postpartum confinement period."
I did the math, and sure enough, it's been 52 days since I gave birth to Little Rice Cake.
Yun Jin couldn't help but praise, "You're such a good dad, remembering all this! Wow, our little Nian Gao is 52 days old now. Let's celebrate her 100-day milestone!"
He Tingchuan nodded in agreement: "I'll make the arrangements then."
Yun Jin was too lazy to worry about these things; someone else was taking care of everything, so she was happy to be free: "Just tell me if you need money."
He Tingchuan nodded.
Little Rice Cake's 100-day celebration will have to wait until next year.
The Lunar New Year is just around the corner, and it won't be 100 days until after the New Year.
He Tingchuan has holidays during the Spring Festival. Annual leave is annual leave, and Spring Festival holiday is Spring Festival holiday.
