Chapter 255 You'll be my master sooner or later, so say it now. I don't want any New Year&
He Xiufang was actually a little insecure. She liked to compare herself with the military wives in the family compound, but apart from having two sons, she really didn't have any advantages in other aspects.
If you don't have an advantage, try looking at your personality. But she doesn't. She's always complaining about crickets and playing with this or that. If she encounters someone with a bad temper, she'll fight with them.
She always says it's because she doesn't have a job. Look at Xia Chunyan, who came with her, she got a job at the service center. And that sickly Wang Xiaonan, she actually became a primary school teacher!
They look down on themselves because they don't earn money and aren't considered workers!
"Old hag, doesn't your daughter-in-law have a history of miscarriages? Instead of taking good care of her, you have time to nag me?"
"If anything happens to your delicate daughter-in-law, your eldest grandson will be gone!"
That's vicious! How can you curse someone's unborn child! The old lady can tolerate other unpleasant words, but she can't stand these words at all!
"Slap!" Aunt Sun slapped He Xiufang hard across the face.
Hehe, this sound made Tong Yuheng, who was still in the courtyard, feel so happy!
He Xiufang let out a scream and was about to start a fight with Aunt Sun, but was held back by Xia Chunyan and another military wife.
"The ladies are chatting here!" Tong Yuheng opened the door and came out, putting some mental pressure on He Xiufang, making her unconsciously fear Tong Yuheng.
"Is this Sister Chen? She looks great! Did you go to the market?" Indeed, she looked great; her face was bright red from being slapped.
"Yes, yes, I'm going to the market! I have to go back and cook, I'm leaving now!" He Xiufang picked up the basket from the ground and ran away!
My God, being stared at by that woman just now felt like having a gun pointed at my head. I felt like if I made a scene, my brains might splatter on the spot!
"Hahaha! Why is she running so fast? There wasn't even a dog chasing her!" Xia Chunyan said with a loud laugh.
"Hmph, luckily she ran fast, or I would have slapped her!" Aunt Sun was still a little angry.
"Aunt Sun, how is your Xiaonan doing? I just made some hawthorn cake, could you take some back for her? Sister Chunyan, could you take some back for the two little girls too?"
Wang Xiaonan is Grandma Sun's daughter-in-law. Grandma Sun only came to take care of her after she became pregnant. She and her husband have been married for five or six years, and she has had two miscarriages and still doesn't have children.
This time, she almost miscarried again at three months, but luckily Tong Yuheng came and gave her some essence pills to eat for a month. Now the pregnancy is stable, but she still has a sweet tooth.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had a good relationship. Aunt Sun would do everything she could to make food that was easy for her daughter-in-law to eat. Sometimes when she brought food to Tong Yuheng, she would just put it down and leave so as not to disturb her studies.
Grandma Sun was extremely protective of Tong Yuheng, as he was the savior of her future grandson. She would stand up for Tong Yuheng if anyone spoke ill of him.
A while ago, everyone was saying that Deputy Brigade Commander Li's wife was too lazy. She stayed at home all day, didn't go out, didn't look for a job, and didn't do any housework.
She does almost nothing. Often, Deputy Brigade Commander Li has to get food from the canteen and go home, or go back to cook for her himself.
These are their own business and don't bother anyone, but some people are just jealous and feel unbalanced!
She knew that He Xiufang's behavior was quite obvious, while others simply remained silent. Tong Yuheng didn't care about such things; she didn't have time for them. However, she didn't want such public opinion to affect Li Chengsong.
Now that she's the wife of a brigade commander and a cadre's family member, she can't just fight whenever she wants like before, so I'll just have less contact with them.
Those who click with you will get to know each other better, while those you don't click with will just be a nod to each other. I've been here for over two months, and there's still no sign of pregnancy. It seems that having children isn't something you can just decide to do.
Tong Yuheng invited Aunt Sun and Xia Chunyan into his home and served them a large piece of hawthorn cake in a big bowl. The two women cut off a piece to taste and praised it highly!
The hawthorns were grown in the planting space; they were big and red. She also added a little spiritual spring water when she made them, so the taste was, of course, superb.
"Your skills are amazing! Who said you can't do any housework!" Xia Chunyan said. "If you took this to a service shop to sell, you'd be robbed!"
"Yes, definitely! My own hawthorn cakes don't taste this good!" Grandma Sun praised as well.
"I made a lot, take more!" Tong Yuheng was about to cut more.
"No, no, this is enough for several days. We'll be going now. Just let us know if you need any help at home!"
"Okay, I'll go with you and take some to Sister Zheng!"
Tong Yuheng occasionally visited Political Commissar Gu's home and sometimes tutored Gu Wenqian. Amazed by her vast knowledge, the little girl had gone from idolizing Li Chengsong to idolizing Tong Yuheng! This was, of course, exactly what Political Commissar Gu and his wife wanted to see.
Commissar Gu also has a younger daughter, Gu Wenxi, who is fifteen years old and in her third year of junior high school. Once, she jumped very high to help a child retrieve a shuttlecock that had been kicked onto a tree branch, making it seem as if she were flying.
Gu Wenxi, who happened to be returning home from school, saw this scene and, convinced that she was a martial arts master, pestered her to teach him kung fu.
Tong Yuheng felt that she was in good physical condition, so he had her squat in a horse stance for three months first. He would only talk about whether to teach her or not after she passed this test.
I thought the little girl was just having a passing fancy and would give up after a few days because she couldn't stand the suffering. But I didn't expect her to persevere. She squats every day, from half an hour to an hour each day, and she's been doing it for almost three months now.
"Everyone's home! Sister Zheng, I made some hawthorn cake, I brought it over for you to try!"
"Xiaotong, come in quickly! Oh my, this hawthorn cake looks so red and shiny, it looks delicious!" Zheng Lihong praised, took the large bowl from her, replaced it with her own, and even washed the bowl.
At this moment, Gu Wenxi ran downstairs and grabbed Tong Yuheng's arm: "Master! You came to see me! And you brought me delicious food!"
"Heh, you wish! I haven't even accepted you as my apprentice yet! Good morning, Master!"
"You'll be my master sooner or later, so call me that first. I don't want any New Year's money!" Gu Wenxi was mischievous. It was clear that she and her sister had grown up under the loving care of their parents, and they were lively and innocent.
"If you pass the test, I'll take you as my apprentice. But being my apprentice isn't easy. Besides being physically fit, you can't lag behind academically either—at least in the top ten of your class! New Year's money is nothing; you'll get rewards for every bit of progress you make!"
"Huh? Studying like my sister? I think she's obsessed! If she had studied this hard earlier, she would have gotten into university long ago! Luckily, I'm not too late!"
Gu Wenqian's grades were below average, so she joined the army after graduating from high school. That year, the college entrance examination was reinstated. She'll be discharged next spring and can then apply for the university entrance exam. If she doesn't pass, she can just go back to her assigned unit to work!
