The two returned to the house again. Shen Jianfeng saw that his wife wanted to wash her hands and immediately prepared water for her.
"Daughter-in-law, let's send Chen Jiang's letter to his parents and the money."
Shen Jianfeng just wants to please his wife. In fact, he has too much to say, but he still thinks about his wife's body.
I met a pregnant woman on the train. I talked a lot with the man and learned a lot about the woman's pregnancy.
But he remembered that he must make his wife in a good mood. He could wait until later to ask other questions. Now he just stayed with his wife.
Chen Miao nodded, "That's okay. Mom told me to go there for dinner in the evening. I thought everyone in my family would go there."
Shen Jianfeng quickly found Chen Jiang's things.
Chen Miao went to the side room, opened the lid of the jar and asked Shen Jianfeng to take out two pieces of beef, two pieces of donkey meat and some cold dishes such as heart and liver.
The road outside was too slippery, so Shen Jianfeng carefully dragged his wife's arm, fearing that she might make a mistake.
When we arrived at my husband's house, I could smell the fragrance outside.
The three brothers of the Chen family who were working outside saw the two people coming in.
We all grew up in the same village, how could we not know each other?
After Shen Jianfeng came in, he immediately called him eldest brother, second brother, and third brother. In fact, Chen Tian was younger than him. But since he was his wife's biological third brother, he must be called him that way.
"It'll be great if you come back, Xiaofeng." Now of course I'm happy to see my brother-in-law with full beard and tail back.
Chen He came out when he heard the commotion and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Shen Jianfeng.
He just called people one by one, and all the sisters-in-law knew each other except Chen Tian's daughter-in-law Zhao Erya.
There was no snow in the yard, which made Chen Miao's walk much easier.
She entered the main room by herself, and Shen Jianfeng was surrounded by men, all asking about what was going on outside.
"Sister, this is a cold dish, you should cut it."
"Well, you go to the house and lie down."
"I just woke up today and I don't want to lie down anymore. It's okay. You guys go ahead and I'll peel a few cloves of garlic."
"Sangu, I can just peel it off." Xiaoqin hurriedly took it.
Yang Yuemei avoided Chen Miao. She also knew how much he didn't want to see her, so she just stayed away to avoid being unhappy.
There are two tables in the room, one on the kang and one on the floor.
Fried peanuts and mixed cabbage with heart and bean curd were already on the table. Chen Miao also felt that she was delaying their work in the main room, so she went into the room.
After standing for a long time, I was tired and lay on my side on the kang. I didn't dare to lie down for too long, otherwise my back would be sore.
Shen Jianfeng said what he could and knew that five people in his family were going to join the army.
"Xiao Feng, will they go find the main force when spring comes?"
"I don't know. Even if they don't go, they will go to the battlefield and compete with the national army for various areas. Even if they stay, they will still be responsible for the liberation of this area, so they will definitely fight with the national army."
Chen Shan sighed, "Then I hope they are not in danger and can come back safely."
Shen Jianfeng understood their feelings. Everyone at home felt the same. It should be said that they prayed every day.
"Xiao Feng, can you go and see them?"
"Okay, I just have something to discuss."
Everyone was smiling happily now, maybe I could bring more food to the children.
"Dad, Chen Jiang brought you a letter and money."
Chen Dongsheng smiled happily, "Xiaofeng, are you and Chen Jiang together?"
"We are not in the same army, but we are together now, and we have met Jianlin. They are both very nice."
He took the bag with a smile and opened it immediately. There were ten dollars in it.
"so much?"
“I usually don’t have any place to spend money.”
Chen Dongsheng knew a few words, but not many. After opening the letter, there were quite a few that he didn't recognize.
Shen Jianfeng said on the side that it went much smoother.
The Chen family members all felt very proud as they listened.
Of course, everything Chen Jiang said was good, and he wouldn't say anything about being hurt.
The letter was not long, so Chen Dongsheng took it into the house and showed it to his wife.
Liang Caixia knew more characters than Chen Dongsheng, and she could read them smoothly.
"When you are older, you are really older, you already know how to give me money." How can you not be excited? Your child knows his own temperament.
Among the five sons, the fourth is the most honest.
"Hurry up and put the money away and keep it for the fourth child. When he comes back in the future, he will say that your wife is just right."
The three daughters-in-law are envious of this. Ten yuan is a lot.
Liang Caixia carefully put it away, didn't she want to keep the money for the fourth child?
Chen Miao looked at her mother's actions and smiled, this was good.
Shen Jianfeng was worried about his wife, "Brother, I'll go in and see Chen Miao."
The children all called Third Uncle, and he nodded with a smile. If there is no wife in the main room, she must be in the house.
When I entered the house and saw my wife lying down, I felt relieved. "I'm going to do some work with dad and eldest brother."
Chen Miao nodded and thought to herself, what kind of work can I do for you? He would be more comfortable if he wasn't in front of her. It would be best to go out and work.
The cold dishes were served again. There were really many dishes.
Men just grind corn outside, and Shen Jianfeng just answers whatever is asked.
He has been outside for nearly ten years, and of course he knows much more than people who never leave home.
It all sounded quite new, and some things they had never heard of before.
Chen Miao was tired and stood leaning against the cabinet. Xiaoqin came in and said, "Third aunt, what's wrong with you?"
"It's okay, I'm exhausted from lying down."
"Third aunt, do you want some water?"
"No." What's going on with this child surrounding me? But he didn't ask.
"Third aunt, I just heard that my third uncle said that he was going to see my old aunt, my uncle, and the others. Can you take me with you? Let me join the army as well?"
So this is what happened, "Xiaoqin, do your parents agree? If they don't want you, you better not go."
Xiaoqin lowered her head, "Third aunt, my mother doesn't want me to go. She said that if I leave, there will be one less person to work in the house."
Chen Miao could understand Xiaoqin's reluctance. But so what if she understood? Her parents were unwilling.
"Third aunt, can you talk to my parents?"
"Xiaoqin, what do you want me to say? This is a matter of life. If Blade, Gun and Eyes don't get it right and something goes wrong, how do you want me to explain it to your parents?
You can only talk to your parents about this matter.
You also know that your mother is unreasonable, and I don’t want to be blamed for this for the rest of my life."
Xiaoqin snorted, she just wanted to leave this home, she was spinning like a top all day, her aunt and cousin had gone out, they would not come back to farm in the future, and she was not willing to farm either.
Chen Miao frowned and looked at this niece. She thought she was honest before, but she didn't expect that she was also unreasonable like her mother.
Forget it, it has nothing to do with me, I won't care about such things anyway.
"Third aunt, please help me."
"I can't help you because you don't have a good heart. Even if you don't do well after I help you, you will blame me." Chen Miao was not polite at all and simply dismissed her idea.
