Chapter 63: It’s Just Pure Revolutionary Friendship

Shen Chuning looked up and met Lu Qiaoqing’s resentful gaze.

Shen Chuning remembered that in her dream, Lu Qiaoqing had always liked Chen Ziyun, although Chen Ziyun had never liked Lu Qiaoqing, he enjoyed being pursued.

Therefore, he always adopted a three-no policy towards Lu Qiaoqing: no initiative, no rejection, no responsibility.

This also made Lu Qiaoqing harbor illusions about him.

In the dream, she, like Lu Qiaoqing, was fascinated by Chen Ziyun.

Even after she married Chen Ziyun, she would still be jealous because Chen Ziyun accepted gifts from Lu Qiaoqing and talked to her.

Thinking of the tragic ending her family suffered because of Chen Ziyun in the dream, she felt a chill rise from her feet.

She also felt more sympathy for Lu Qiaoqing.

Getting close to a scumbag like Chen Ziyun would only make people unhappy.

After they explained their intentions, someone in the educated youth point had already called Wang Yumeng out.

“Comrade Shen, what’s the matter?”

Shen Zhengxu didn’t bother with Wang Yumeng, and said directly, “Comrade Wang, I heard that my second brother was injured saving you?”

Wang Yumeng had already spread this matter in the village, and it was well-known, she had nothing to hide.

“Mm, that day Comrade Shen Zhengliang helped me drive away the hooligans, I’m very grateful to him…”

“Comrade Wang, gratitude should be shown through actions, not words. I don’t know what you said to our Second Brother today, making him ask my sister for the family heirloom left by my mother, making my sister angry and unwilling to take care of him anymore.

Since you are the culprit behind both his injury and his making my sister angry, and you are very grateful to him, then please take care of him from tomorrow onwards.”

Wang Yumeng: …

“But…”

After a moment of shock, she hesitated, “Comrade Shen Zhengxu, it’s not that I’m unwilling to take care of Comrade Shen Zhengliang, but we’re both unmarried, if I take care of him, it might cause gossip.”

Shen Chuning blinked her big eyes and said innocently, “Comrade Wang, what are you talking about? We’re all good revolutionary comrades, and repaying kindness is a traditional virtue of our Chinese nation.

As long as your intentions are pure, and you only take care of my second brother in the hospital and don’t do anything else, people will only praise your good qualities, why would there be gossip?

Besides, you visit my second brother every day, and no one says anything.

Or, Comrade Wang, do you have any impure thoughts?”

Wang Yumeng subconsciously waved her hands repeatedly, “No, no, Comrade Shen Zhengliang and I have a pure revolutionary friendship.”

As soon as she said this, she wanted to bite off her tongue.

Now she had to go whether she wanted to or not.

She had no problem pretending to visit Shen Zhengliang every day.

After all, even though Shen Zhengliang didn’t have much ability, his face was still pleasing to the eye.

But to let her serve a stinky man’s eating, drinking, and bathroom needs…

Wang Yumeng felt disgusted just thinking about it.

It was all thanks to Shen Zhengliang, that fool. She only tentatively mentioned the pendant, and he eagerly went to ask Shen Chuning.

Now Shen Chuning was retaliating, and to avoid ruining the play she had set up, she could only jump into the pit Shen Chuning had dug.

After solving the problem of taking care of Shen Zhengliang, Shen Chuning left the educated youth point in a good mood.

But this good mood was once again ruined by Lu Qiaoqing’s venomous gaze.

Shen Chuning sighed softly, turned to meet Lu Qiaoqing’s eyes, and looked back directly.

“Zhiqing Lu, I know you like Chen Ziyun, and I’m sorry for sending him to labor reform.

But you’ve blamed the wrong person, Chen Ziyun went to my house to harass me, he went himself, I didn’t tie him up and take him there. He’s an educated youth from the city, with knowledge and culture, he should know better than me what the consequences would be of climbing over a single military wife’s wall to harass her.

You’re also a knowledgeable and cultured educated youth from the city, you should be smarter than me, can you imagine if someone like Chen Ziyun is really worth your liking?”

Lu Qiaoqing had only dared to glare at Shen Chuning secretly.

Now that Shen Chuning directly pointed out her secret feelings, she panicked instantly, “Comrade Shen, don’t talk nonsense, who… who said I like Chen Ziyun?”

Shen Chuning raised her eyebrows, “Anyway, I’ve said what I should say, whether you like Chen Ziyun or not is your business.

But don’t stare at me like that anymore, I don’t like it.”

After Shen Chuning finished speaking, she left the educated youth point with Shen Zhengxu.

Even after she left, Lu Qiaoqing was still staring at her back in a daze.

She hadn’t had direct contact with Shen Chuning before, she only heard Chen Ziyun and the villagers say that Shen Chuning was a crybaby, spoiled, and lazy and gluttonous.

But after Shen Chuning’s words just now, she really felt that Shen Chuning was cool and capable, she could express her preferences so bravely and directly.

Shen Chuning was unaware of Lu Qiaoqing’s psychological changes.

As soon as she reached the gate of her courtyard, several little children rushed out from the courtyard next door.

“Thank you, Third Aunt, thank you, Third Aunt…”

“Third Aunt, the sesame cakes are so delicious, I’ve never eaten anything so delicious.”

…

Zhou’s six children surrounded Shen Chuning, eating sesame cakes and talking.

Their little faces were full of satisfaction.

Shen Chuning touched the children’s little heads, “It’s good that you like them.”

At this time, in Zhou’s courtyard.

Sun Fengjiao came out of the kitchen to pour the washing water, glancing at her three daughters surrounding Shen Chuning, closer to her than their own mother, she rolled her eyes, “She’s the only one who knows how to be a good person!”

Lin Shulan heard the commotion outside and knew that Shen Chuning was back. She was about to go out and ask about her second son’s condition and ask Shen Chuning to eat here when she saw Sun Fengjiao’s rolled eyes and that sentence.

Lin Shulan was furious.

She had thought that the eldest daughter-in-law was shrewd, but now she found that the eldest daughter-in-law was a short-sighted fool and didn’t know good from bad.

The things given to her were better off being fed to a dog, a dog would still wag its tail!

If it weren’t for the pity of her three granddaughters, she really wanted to tell her third son’s wife to only give things to her second daughter-in-law in the future and not care about the eldest daughter-in-law.

Xia Yue’e also heard the commotion outside and stepped out of the courtyard before Lin Shulan, smiling and greeting Shen Chuning, “Ningning is back. The sesame cakes you brought have made these little gluttons happy.

You haven’t had time to cook yet, right? Your second brother rested yesterday and caught two fish in the river, I made fish soup, eat at my house tonight, don’t cook alone.”

Zhou Hongjun, Zhou Minjun, and Zhou Aijun immediately cheered Shen Chuning, “Third Aunt, eat at our house.”

“My mother’s fish soup is delicious…”

Zhou Xiaolian, Zhou Xiaoai, and Zhou Xiaoying were unwilling to be outdone and also wanted to invite Shen Chuning to their house for a meal.

But Zhou Xiaolian and Zhou Xiaoai knew their mother’s temper and didn’t dare to speak.

Sun Fengjiao stood at the door with a spatula in her hand and shouted, “Zhou Xiaolian, Zhou Xiaoai, Zhou Xiaoying, you three dead girls, come back to eat quickly, what are you doing outside? People give you a little bit of alms, and you think you can be fed?”

After saying this, she glanced at Xia Yue’e and said sarcastically, “Your mother is not as good at being a person as others, this time you have some, next time you may not have any, you still wag your tails like dogs…”
