Yu Xiangnian and the three of them also returned to their homes.
The weather in Nancheng is already over 20 degrees in May. At the end of the day, my body is sticky.
Yu Xiangnian was very grateful to the original owner for his coquettishness.
In this era when everyone goes to public bathhouses and public toilets, the original owner asked Cheng Jingmo to build a small room in his courtyard, which is equivalent to a modern bathroom.
Although there are no water heaters or bathtubs, it is still very good.
There is a water tank installed in the house, which can flush the toilet with just one pull. For bathing, use a large basin, boil hot water, mix it with cold water, and you can wash.
I have a briquette stove at home. When in use, open the damper. When not in use, close the damper until a small hole leaks to ensure that the briquettes do not go out.
This kind of stove, the fire comes too slowly, so it is not suitable for cooking, but it is just used for boiling water. Every day, a pot of water is placed on the stove to ensure the supply of hot water.
The things the original owner used were also the most fashionable in this era. She had soap, soap, cream, moisturizer, clam oil...she had it all.
Unfortunately, there is no shampoo yet. You can only use burned plant ashes to wash your hair. After soaking in water, wait for it to precipitate, and then wash it with the layer of alkaline water above.
After taking a bath, she wiped her hair with a dry towel in the bedroom and was thinking.
She originally planned to settle down here, but look at the current situation:
She had a husband who had no choice but to marry her, children who ignored her, neighbors who disliked her... no one around her liked her!
Let’s just say that men, children, neighbors, etc. are not necessary people!
Since men have sweethearts, she will make them happen!
Since the child doesn't like her, whoever wants to be this stepmother should do it!
As for those neighbors who dislike her and have nothing to do with her, love her!
However, once divorced, she would have no place to settle down.
She needs to be self-reliant as soon as possible!
In another room.
Xiaojie was lying on the bed and said excitedly: "Uncle, my aunt is so relieved today. I told Daya and Erya a long time ago that as long as their father beats their mother, they will give him a good beating. Once. If he's afraid of being beaten, he won't dare to hit him again."
Cheng Jingmo sat on the edge of the bed, and the image of Yu Xiangnian grabbing a large bowl and smashing it against Captain Zhang's forehead reappeared in his mind. There was no hesitation or fear in his action.
Hands up and bowls down!
Why is this woman so fierce!
Cheng Jingmo touched Xiaojie's head and said, "No matter what, it's wrong to hit people. Although your aunt was helping people today, she didn't do the right thing."
After a pause, he added: "I'm not here for a month. Is your aunt treating you well?"
Xiaojie said: "She ignored me some time ago. I always went to Uncle Dong's house to eat. She was very kind to me these two days. She bought me popsicles, candied haws, and brought me meat buns. That restaurant The meat buns are delicious!”
Xiaojie swallowed as he spoke, "My aunt said that as long as I want to eat, she will take me to eat."
In other words, Yu Xiangnian became strange only in these two days.
Cheng Jingmo asked again: "Have you ever seen your aunt bring that Captain Ding home?"
Xiaojie pouted with a depressed expression, "My aunt asked Company Commander Ding to help us weed and dig the ground in our yard, repair the furniture, and clean the house! But I heard the aunts outside saying that she brought the man back to steal people."
Xiaojie didn't know what stealing meant, but just by the word "steal", he knew it wasn't a good word.
Cheng Jingmo narrowed his eyes and said, "Don't listen to the nonsense of those people outside. Also, don't talk to those people about family matters."
Xiaojie nodded sensibly, "Uncle, I won't tell."
He has been fooled once and will never tell outsiders about his family affairs again!
It was the second day after Cheng Jingmo and Yu Xiangnian got married. The people outside were talking to Xiaojie. Xiaojie didn't understand anything, so he told the truth that Cheng Jingmo slept with him last night.
As a result, Cheng Jingmo became a joke in the family yard.
Cheng Jingmo tucked Xiaojie into bed and said, "Go to sleep."
The next day.
Yu Xiangnian didn't get up until the third bugle sounded.
When I walked to the small house outside to wash up, I saw clothes hanging on the rope in the yard.
It was the skirt she changed into last night, along with Xiaojie's clothes and a military uniform.
She felt tired yesterday, so she didn't wash her. Unexpectedly, Cheng Jingmo did.
The original owner refused to let Cheng Jingmo wash except his underwear, and threw all other clothes to him.
But that’s the original owner!
Yu Xiangnian was a little embarrassed to let a strange man wash her clothes by hand!
When she walked into the small house, she saw that her underwear was still in the dirty clothes basket. She washed it quickly and took it to the rope outside to dry.
After taking two steps, she turned back and hung her underwear under her skirt.
This small courtyard is separated from the courtyards of the two houses next door by a row of one-meter-high bamboo fences. You can see the situation in the small courtyard next door from your own house.
Just after washing up, Cheng Jingmo came back with two large lunch boxes.
His face was sweaty, he must have just finished having sex. He put the lunch box on the table, said "I made breakfast", then went into Xiaojie's room to wake him up, and went to wash his face again.
The three of them sat at the table. Yu Xiangnian broke off half of the steamed bun and ate it. This steamed bun was not a modern white flour steamed bun. It was mixed with most of the cornmeal, which made it choke.
She swallowed a mouthful of steamed buns with difficulty and said, "Cheng Jingmo, I will wash my clothes myself from now on."
Cheng Jingmo said nothing, not sure if he was acquiescing.
Xiaojie was also nibbling on a steamed bun and suddenly asked: "Aunt, you have never eaten this kind of steamed bun before. Why did you eat it today?"
If it weren't for the fact that she helped Da Ya Er Ya yesterday, he wouldn't have talked to her!
These words made Yu Xiangnian choke up. She quickly drank two mouthfuls of corn rice porridge before swallowing the steamed bun in her throat.
When she looked up, she saw Cheng Jingmo and Xiaojie looking at her with doubtful eyes.
She pretended to be nonchalant and said, "Auntie, I want to try the taste of these steamed buns today. They are quite delicious. I will eat whatever you want from now on."
"You don't want to eat meat buns anymore?" Xiaojie asked again.
This kid wants to eat it himself!
Yu Xiangnian said: "I think you look like a meat bun!"
Cheng Jingmo lowered his eyes, with more doubts in his eyes.
You know, during the six months of marriage, Yu Xiangnian ignored Xiaojie. She ignored Xiaojie's calls.
The three of them went out after breakfast.
The soldiers and family members met along the way all greeted Cheng Jingmo, but no one spoke to Yu Xiangnian. Everyone looked at her with complicated eyes.
What happened last night has spread throughout the family home.
I didn’t expect this evil woman to help others, but she is too aggressive. Now she is pregnant again. I have to stay away from her when I see her in the future!
Xiaojie went to primary school in the military area, not far from the family home, so he ran there with his schoolbag on his back.
The original owner had attended high school and was able to write and do math. He was a non-staff member recruited by the logistics department and received a monthly salary of 18 yuan.
Cheng Jingmo is the deputy commander of the 9th Military Region of the Army in the Southern Theater Command. The original owner does not know how much his salary is. Anyway, he will give the original owner 80 yuan a month.
After Xiaojie left, the two of them walked into the military gate gate one after another in silence.
