CHAPTER 29
Lin Qiu Shuang knew that Xie Jingming was back, so she went to look for him once. However, she didn’t see Xie Jingming in person, so she was left angry by Lin Chuxia.
But in the end, for the sake of her Sun Xiangxue becoming a successful man in the future, she ignored the matter and pretended that nothing had happened.
However, she didn’t expect that Xie Jingming would be called by the captain to help with the harbor. The moment they saw Xie Jingming, Lin Qiu Shuang became a little confused.
Sun Xiangxue is very ordinary, nothing special compared to other men in the village.
Xie Jingming is different. He has broad shoulders, narrow waist, and long legs. His facial features are so straight and sharp that he looks imposing at first glance.
When the two of them stood together, it was like… Lin Qiu Shuang took one look at Xie Jingming and was fascinated. She didn’t want to look at her man at all.
Damn it, back then, if she knew Xie Jingming could come back, why would she insist on not marrying Xie Jingming?
In addition to Lin Qiu Shuang, Xie Jingming’s sudden appearance also attracted the attention of many little girls in the village, including those educated youth from the city.
He is actually better looking than the rough guys in the village and stronger and muscular than the educated youth from the city. His aura is not something that ordinary people can match.
However, Xie Jingming has never cared much about other people’s eyes, and it seems that there is no need to care.
The work that needs to be done is done very neatly. He is absolutely appropriate to be able to do ten centimeters a day.
After finishing the work in the fields, he can still continue to do the work at home, such as cutting pig grass, carrying water, chopping firewood, planting vegetables, watering, etc., except for helping with the laundry.
When he got home from work, lunch and dinner had been prepared. Looking at Xie Jingming, whose whole clothes were soaked when he came back, Lin Chuxia and the three little children were very concerned about him and asked him to change his clothes before eating.
Oh…and pants, including boxers.
At first, when Lin Chuxia was washing clothes, she was a little shy when she looked at the man’s boxer briefs, but as she washed her clothes, she became indifferent. People become thick-skinned when they get used to it.
The wife brought clothes, and the sons brought mulberry sour soup cooled by well water and sat on the stool, which was completely in line with Xie Jingming’s expectations for his future home.
The serious expression on his face revealed a slight smile, which was a little gentle.
“Okay, it’s time to eat. Everyone must drink a bowl of bitter melon soup at noon today to reduce the heat!” Such hot weather is prone to heat stroke, so in addition to Xie Jingming, children also have to drink it.
Moreover, bitter melon soup is only a little bitter, but it still has many benefits. It can clear away heat, detoxify, and beautify the skin.
Xie Jingming, who was forced to drink bitter melon soup, was very well-behaved and felt warm in his heart. He liked being under supervision, and he also liked the commanding one.
The three children didn’t like bitter melon soup. As soon as they took a sip, their whole faces wrinkled up with grins and disgust on their faces. They didn’t like bitter soup.
They looked at Lin Chuxia eagerly, hoping to use their chubby and cute little face to soften Lin Chuxia’s heart, but unfortunately, Lin Chuxia had a stern face and still had some power when scaring people.
“You must drink it. Bad babies who don’t drink will not get dried meat to eat at night.” Of course, this dried meat refers to the dried meat that Xie Jingming brought back all the way.
The threatened little babies had no choice but to cast their eager eyes on Xie Jingming, hoping that their father could speak for them.
Xie Jingming, who was highly anticipated by the three little cubs, didn’t even raise his eyelids. “I also listen to your mother.”
After saying that, he picked up the bowl of bitter melon soup and drank half of it in one gulp. It didn’t feel like he was drinking bitter melon. Instead, he felt that he drank some sweet and sour drinks. With such a bold look, the three little cuties were dumbfounded.
There was no way; Dad had to listen to Mom…
They drank in small sips, and in the end, they felt disgusted. After finishing the meal, there was still more than half of the small bowl of bitter melon soup, and they sat there and touched their round belly.
Sanzai raised his head and begged Lin Chuxia with a milky voice, “Mom, I’m full.”
“Then you can eat again later. Come, mom will rub your belly.” Lin Chuxia sat over with a smile and stretched out her hand. The lying third cub got his belly rubbed. “Oh, our Sanzai has a round belly after eating. It seems that he is really full.”
When Lin Chuxia rubbed his belly, Sanzai had a shy smile on his face. On the bed, the little chubby hand subconsciously covered the back of Lin Chuxia’s hand, giggling happily.
…….
Ever since she met Xie Jingming, she didn’t know if she felt regretful in her heart. But when she looked at Sun Xiangxue, she inexplicably compared Sun Xiangxue and Xie Jingming in her heart.
It was okay not to compare, but once she compared, Lin Qiu Shuang felt that Sun Xiangxue was like mud on the ground. He was not good in appearance and could not work in the fields. She even felt impatient when talking to him.
“Sun Xiangxue, come here and help light the fire. Don’t just sit there like an uncle!” After returning from farming, she had to do laundry and cook. At first, Lin Qiu Shuang also felt that ‘you have to endure hardships to become a master’. The little daughters-in-law in the village aren’t all like this?
However, after meeting Xie Jingming and listening to others talking about Xie Jingming, Lin Qiu Shuang felt unbalanced.
She heard that Xie Jingming helped cut pigweed in the morning and also carried water, watered vegetables, and chopped firewood at home… While Lin Chuxia barely cooked the rice and washed the clothes… It was obviously during the harvest period. She and Lin Chuxia grew up together. How come Lin Chuxia was able to successfully appear on TV and become a rich wife after marrying Sun Xiangxue in her previous life, but she could only live on the streets?
She was reborn, stole Lin Chuxia’s man, and pushed her dead man and three white-eyed wolf stepsons to Lin Chuxia. It turned out that Lin Chuxia lived a more comfortable life than herself.
“When did I become an uncle? I earn more work points than you in the fields, so why don’t you make a meal?” Sun Xiangxue yelled, full of impatience.
” Don’t ask me to do everything. I am so tired from going to the field, and when I get home to take a rest, you ask me to do this or that.”
Lin Qiu Shuang, who was scolded
threw the firewood in her hand to the ground angrily, “Yes, you want to rest, but I don’t have to rest, right? I’m a woman going to the field. Isn’t farming hard work?”
Damn trash Sun Xiangxue, he can’t even support a woman, and he still wants his wife to farm in the fields to earn work points!
Will he not be able to become a rich man in the future ?
She looked at the calluses in her hands, and there was no hope. The little girl was so delicate when she was at home, but she has grown rough due to working after marriage.
Even if Lin Qiu Shuang wants to accompany Sun Xiangxue to prosper, she still knows what it means to be a poor and lowly wife. The rougher and haggard she becomes, in the future when Sun Xiangxue is rich, those beautiful and charming women will pounce on him one by one.
“What are you yelling about?” Sun Xiangxue saw Lin Qiu Shuang was so angry that she was losing her temper. He yelled at Lin Qiu Shuang angrily, “If you don’t cook, who will cook? If the girls work in the fields, don’t they still cook, and if you don’t work in the field, how can we still eat ?”
Sun Xiangxue said in particular. But she lost her temper at him even more irritably. She had worked so hard, and yet she still had to cook. Damn it, he married a wife! Not a maid.
“Who said that ??? My cousin Lin Chuxia married Xie Jingming and didn’t have to work in the fields. Now she doesn’t even have to cut pigweed. Why can he support a family of five, but you can’t even support a wife?” Lin Qiushuang said. She was so angry that she started to speak indiscriminately.
When Sun Xiangxue heard Lin Qiu Shuang mention Xie Jingming, his face turned dark. Even if Sun Xiangxue didn’t know about Lin Qiu Shuang’s incident at the beginning, someone would say something about it later.
At that time, he was still thinking proudly that Lin Qiu Shuang was unwilling to marry Xie Jingming and shamelessly married him because he felt that he was better than Xie Jingming!
Now it feels like he is wearing a green hat on his head. He was seriously looking at Lin Qiu Shuang in front of him and saying, “I regret that I regret marrying you. If you want to go back and hug Xie Jingming’s thigh, then go. I want to see how you can compare to Lin Chuxia and make Xie Jingming like you.”
It was ferocious and sarcastic, making Lin Qiu Shuang’s already irrational emotions explode even more, as if she was going to set him on fire!
“Yes, Lin Chuxia is better than me, so you just care about her, right?” Lin Qiu Shuang said angrily.
Sun Xiangxue recalled Lin Chuxia’s face in his mind. She used to be gloomy, but now that it has become clear, she has grown up white, with delicate features, as a little white lotus.
When Lin Qiu Shuang said this, her tone was angry and violent. She pushed Sun Xiangxue away and was about to start a fight with him… Oh, no, she had already hit Sun Xiangxue with her hand.
Sun Xiangxue, who was beaten by Lin Qiu Shuang, was full of irritation. He directly grabbed the arm that Lin Qiu Shuang hit. “What are you talking nonsense about? When did I care about Lin Chuxia, you stinky bitch?”
Xie Jingming has been a good fighter since he was a child. Yes, he was very unreasonable. If he really misunderstood that he was thinking about his wife and came to the door to beat him up, Sun Xiangxue immediately became even more angry at Lin Qiu Shuang. No, the two people who were tired and irritable because of working in the fields quarreled. If you beat me and I beat you, one side starts to take action, and the other side can’t suppress the fire.
There was a fight, and in the end, Sun Xiangxue was scratched on the face, and he cursed and sat in the kitchen to light the fire for Lin Qiu Shuang.
Lin Qiu Shuang, who had some bruises at the corners of her eyes, felt even more aggrieved. Damn it, Sun Xiangxue started beating his wife before he got rich. If he gets rich in the future, he will definitely abandon her, a woman who has shared wealth and woe. But, didn’t she marry Sun Xiangxue just because she wanted to? When Sun Xiangxue becomes prosperous in the future, will she be able to enjoy the blessings?
While cooking, she made up her mind on how to make Sun Xiangxue prosperous through hard work and how to prevent Sun Xiangxue from abandoning her, a poor wife, after he became prosperous.
If he died as soon as he got rich, what would happen?
“I’m sorry, Xiang Xue, I’m too grumpy. Recently, the captain has always given us such heavy work. When will the harvesting end?”” After finishing the meal, Lin Qiu Shuang began to apologize to Sun Xiangxue.
Sun Xiangxue was also very annoyed with Lin Qiu Shuang, but during the harvest period, he couldn’t run around yet, and the captain even came to him specifically to talk.
If you get into trouble with Lin Qiu Shuang and there is no one to wash and cook for him, “Well, sit down and eat.”
The two couples who had a relatively good relationship began to have cracks, and because of Xie Jingming’s existence, along with Lin Chuxia’s leisurely happiness , their defense was broken, and the cracks became even wider!
……
In the days when the harvest was about to end, the captain looked at the somewhat dull and black sky and kept urging the people in the village to work faster.
Even the children were called out, either to help pick up grains and peanuts or to help pull weeds…
Lin Chuxia put on new straw hats for the three little guys and wore repair sleeves on their hands. Don’t let them show off their skin, as it is easy to get sunburned.
Although the weather looks a bit gray, it is very hot and muggy. As soon as you step out of the house, you can feel the sweltering heat coming on you in waves, and you will be sweating in no time.
The four people, who had never done such hard work before, had not finished work at noon, so they were looking eagerly in the direction of going home. After Xie Jingming finished his share, he went to see how his little wife’s land was doing.
When he saw Lin Chuxia squatting there aggrievedly wearing a straw hat and holding a hoe, he reluctantly walked over and asked her to go home with her three children.
Lin Chuxia seemed to be liberated. Her attitude toward Xie Jingming suddenly became particularly bright, and she smiled happily, “Thank you for your hard work!!!”
Then she couldn’t wait to run away. Woo woo woo… When they return to the camp, she won’t have to farm in the military building. She raises her head and shouts in the direction of the three children, “Dazai, Erzai, Sanzai, let’s go home and cook!!!”
The three children carried a small basket to pick up the wheat ears and grains. When they heard Lin Chuxia’s voice, they raised their heads, then took up their short legs and ran towards Lin Chuxia quickly.
The small basket in their hand was swaying, and the wheat ears and grains in the basket almost fell out. “Slow down, slow down; don’t drop it; let mom see if our three little cubs can earn one.” Then she took it to the scorer. The scorer frowned very reluctantly and said, “Half a centimeter! Remember to come in the afternoon! Otherwise, you won’t get half a centimeter!”
If work points are so easy to earn, then others won’t say it’s hard and tiring.
Half a centimeter—that’s only 0.5 work points. Lin Chuxia pursed her lips and said on the way back with the three little cubs, “Otherwise, we won’t go in the afternoon.”
Originally, Lin Chuxia had no intention of letting the three little cubs come to the field together. Yes, she… It’s not like Xie Jingming can’t do it anymore, but when the three little children saw her following her, they insisted on going together.
Lin Chuxia felt that they insisted on going together because they didn’t know what “social beating” was, so she actually agreed.
Regarding the education of children, Xie Jingming flashed his eyes but did not say anything to stop it.
The three little children who had been “severely beaten by society” were so hot that they were sweating. They were so hot that they almost didn’t suffer from heatstroke. Moreover, they couldn’t win over other little friends.
The eldest son puffed up his face in dissatisfaction but looked at the two younger brothers beside him. His short legs were exhausted, and he pulled the corner of Lin Chuxia’s clothes and nodded aggrievedly.
It’s more comfortable to play at home.
“No, I won’t go.” Dazai and the other sons, who had been exposed to the sun and beaten severely, were very well behaved. They went back to change their clothes, washed them fragrantly, and stopped going.
Lin Chuxia also sighed. In fact, she didn’t want to go. The captain even went to each house in person to tell them that it might rain heavily recently, so no one should be lazy.
The arranged work was so tight that Lin Chuxia almost suffered from heat stroke. She rubbed her forehead and went back to boil water for a bath. She wanted to refresh herself before cooking!
The three little cubs didn’t dare to bathe in lukewarm water. After taking a bath with cold water, including Lin Chuxia herself, she started cooking.
