Chapter 41

After climbing the mountain, the young couple became closer.

 Wei Jianguo fixed the two large backpacks, arranged a place for Song Shuqian to sit, and rode to the courtyard.

 There were no residents near the mountain. Song Shuqian hugged the waist in front of her as she wanted, feeling particularly relieved. If he was there, there was someone to support her.

 Wei Jianguo rode as steadily as possible, bypassing those places that might be bumpy. “If you feel sleepy, hold me and take a nap. I’ll call you when someone comes.”

 “Okay, I’ll take a nap.”

 When he regained consciousness, he was almost at the family compound.

 The aunts and aunties were chatting in the open space in the square among the family members. When they saw the young couple riding their bikes, the topic naturally turned to them.

 “Hey, do you know? Captain Wei’s wife is a lazy woman. I saw it with my own eyes. Captain Wei went to wash clothes after training. She not only washed his own clothes, but also Xiao Song’s. This kind of woman can only be beaten to death if the mother-in-law is not around.”

 “She’s still greedy. We live nearby and I can always smell meat from their house. I even went to see them specially. They like to cook things from the sea. They go to the sea every two days and pick up a lot.”

 “She’s such a spendthrift. She even put curtains in her house and made cotton cushions on the stools. My God, she’s such a spendthrift. It’s only because Captain Wei dotes on her. If she were in someone else’s house, she would have been beaten for being so spendthrift.”

 “She doesn’t know how to cook yet. When she first came, she ate in the cafeteria. Captain Wei would come back to cook when he had time. During that period, he was worried about her at noon, so he would take time out to come back and cook for her. Now she can cook simple dishes by herself, and he only leaves her alone at noon.”

 “Oh, it’s no wonder these young people are ignorant. Captain Wei treats such a spendthrift old woman like a treasure. In my opinion, except for her face, she has no advantages. She’s just a vixen. These old men are really like that. They only look at the face when they look at a woman. They look the same when the lights are turned off at night.”

 “Her aunt, you are so envious. How can they be the same? Look at you, you’re as rough as old tree bark. I’d rather touch myself than you. Hahahaha”

 “Hahahahaha”

 “It’s true what you said. They are the same before and after. Can your husband tell the difference when you lie there?”

 These aunts who have been married for many years have evolved to be free of taboos and especially like to talk about that. Song Shuqian went out to chat with them once and went back with a red face. After that, she kept her distance from such gossip gathering places.

 There was an aunt who felt that she had really made a mistake. When she was looking for a date for her niece, she felt that Wei Jianguo was too cold and didn’t like to talk. But her niece was also a quiet person. She was worried that two quiet people would get together and her niece would be bullied.

 Living in the same compound, she would come to her every day to cry.

 So, she eliminated Wei Jianguo.

 I didn’t expect Wei Jianguo to be like this after marriage. He would hold his young wife in his mouth for fear that she would melt and hold her in his hands for fear that she would fall. If she couldn’t cook, he would teach her little by little. If she didn’t like to do housework, he would take over and do it himself.

 After six days of training, he was exhausted. He finally got a day off, but he didn’t stay at home. Instead, he took his wife to climb the mountain to relax.

 The aunts didn’t think that Song Shuqian could bring back many mountain products. They thought that the couple went out to relax.

 Not all family members in the compound like to make random guesses. Some don’t like to gossip about others. They are worried that the real owner will know and

 it will be bad for their men, so they persuade them. “Tsk, his aunt, you are not jealous. Jealous that Xiao Song can marry Captain Wei and be spoiled by him like a child.”

 “It’s exaggerated. Who spoils their children like Wei Jianguo?” A woman in her 40s came to the crowd.

 This aunt is also enthusiastic. She introduced several people to Wei Jianguo before, but each time Wei Jianguo used various reasons to evade them. Now it seems that those she introduced did not meet Wei Jianguo’s eyes.

 The sister-in-law spoke with a bit of sourness.

 “I saw two backpacks tied to their bicycles. How many good things must they have brought?” This sister-in-law didn’t care about love affairs. She only cared about whether her five children could have enough food. She would go to the mountains whenever she had the chance. Recently, they were also harvesting crops. However, it was the women and children who went there. They didn’t have bicycles, so the things they could bring back were very limited.

 She wanted to know what Wei Jianguo and his friends had gained from climbing the mountain. It would be even better if she could share some of it with them.

 It is said that three women make a drama. The family compound is a gathering place for women. Everyone has their own selfish desires. In places where no one pays attention, many dramas are staged every day.

 Everyone will become a character in the drama.

 Wei Jianguo and Song Shuqian didn’t know about these things. They picked a lot of mountain products today and are now sorting them out.

 “Jianguo, can you make a wooden rack with five layers like this? Each layer can hold a large basket, and you can dry various things on it, such as mushrooms, dried vegetables, seafood or anything else.”

 Song Shuqian took a pen and drew out the little things she needed.

 “This is not difficult. Is there anything else you need? We have a carpenter in the logistics department. He used to work for wealthy families. He has very good skills. If you need anything, you can go directly to him. It is considered a benefit for military families.”

 Song Shuqian became interested when she heard it. She also wanted a rocking chair. He drew it with a few strokes. You can understand it at a glance.

 Seeing her looking at him with sparkling eyes, full of dependence.

 Wei Jianguo touched the top of her head and said, “I will go to him tomorrow and ask them to send it over when it is done.”

 Song Shuqian immediately gave her a sweet kiss.

 This is what Song Shuqian discovered recently. Wei Jianguo is soft-hearted and likes her to rely on him. He can’t stand the look just now.

 Wei Jianguo planted several transplanted wild fruit trees in the corner of the wall and tidied up the yard by the way. He did all the work he could see. Climbing mountains and picking mountain products is just a warm-up for Wei Jianguo.

 When he came back, he wanted to do everything he could to save Song Shuqian from working by herself.

 Song Shuqian’s physical strength is not in the same league as Wei Jianguo’s. After saying what she wanted to say, she went back to her room to sleep.

 A lively sister-in-law came to find Song Shuqian, wanting to ask about her harvest today, and saw Wei Jianguo cleaning the yard.

 “Captain Wei, we are busy. We came to chat with your wife.”

 “I’m afraid not today. She is tired from climbing the mountain and collecting mountain products today, and has already rested.” Wei Jianguo knew that his wife didn’t like these people, so he sent them away.

 “Which mountain did you go to today, Xiao Wei, and how was the harvest?” A sister-in-law was not giving up, and asked Wei Jianguo directly, waiting for him to be embarrassed and take out things to share with everyone.

 “The mountain behind us, the harvest is not bad. If sister-in-law wants to go, it’s best to go with more people. There are wild animals in the mountains, which is quite dangerous. If there are too many people, they can’t get them, but it’s still okay to get some winter snacks.”

 Wei Jianguo didn’t answer them and talked about his own things.

 Seeing that they couldn’t take advantage, everyone left together.
