Chapter 6

“Sister-in-law Wei, I don’t like what you’re saying. With the reform and opening up, there are now individual businesses on the street. You’re taking advantage of me for nothing, so what’s wrong with me charging you a little money?”

Qiao Shuling said calmly, “But we are all military wives, so it’s not good to be so clear-cut…”

Wei Guofang thought Qiao Shuling was convinced by her. “Sister Qiao, it’s great that you’re willing to think it through. It’s not easy for us military wives. We have to help each other!”

Just as she was about to show a smug smile, she was interrupted by Qiao Shuling’s words.

“Sister-in-law Wei, you’re the only one who uses the toilet the most and takes the most toilet paper. The other sisters-in-law at least know to bring toilet paper when they go to the toilet. How about this? Each of you pays ten yuan a month, and I’ll let all the sisters-in-law use the toilet for free. Sister-in-law Wei, I’ve heard everything you just said. You’re such a kind-hearted person who likes to help others, so you surely wouldn’t mind giving me ten yuan a month to make it easier for everyone to use the toilet, right?”

Ten dollars!

That’s ten dollars!

Wei Guofang’s eyes were about to burst out in anger. The living expenses for her whole family were only 20 yuan a month!

The sisters-in-law and aunties who were originally going to use the toilet looked at each other in confusion.

Wei Guofang was notoriously stingy in their family compound, so how could he possibly spend half a month’s living expenses to let them go to the toilet?

Captain Xie’s wife clearly doesn’t want them to go to the toilet.

Wei Guofang gritted his teeth, but was too proud to admit that he had no money.

The atmosphere was deadlocked for a long time. Wei Guofang’s butt was still covered with filth. The sticky feeling made her feel nauseous. At this time, she just wanted to go home quickly.

In the end, Qiao Shuling let her go with a smile, “It seems that Sister Wei doesn’t have a sense of dedication and doesn’t want to pay everyone this money?”

“What about the other sisters-in-law? Are there any willing to pay?”

The family members who came to take advantage of the situation scattered instantly.

Wei Guofang also hurriedly followed the crowd and left.

This Qiao Shuling! I don’t know what’s wrong with him today!

How dare you go against her.

The next moment, Qiao Shuling’s soft voice came from behind her, “Sister-in-law Wei, don’t forget to wipe your butt when you get home. What if you don’t and your man gets choked up?”

Wei Guofang gritted his teeth and walked faster.

Now everyone knows that Wei Guofang didn’t wipe her butt after taking a shit, and Jian Shou is completely embarrassed!

How will she live in the family compound in the future!

It’s all the fault of that vixen Qiao Shuling.

Qiao Shuling did it on purpose. Wei Guofang had been using the toilet for so long and still dared to bully her son. Didn’t she deserve to be humiliated?

The two babies are very smart and know exactly what is happening between the adults.

Now when he looked at Qiao Shuling again, his eyes were full of stars.

It was as if Qiao Shuling was a superwoman.

“Mom, you’re so awesome!”

Qiao Shuling touched their heads with amusement.

But there was nothing at home now, and it was only noon, so she could go out and buy some things.

“Babies, can you go to Aunt Lu Hong’s house and play with the guards for a while?”

The guard is Lu Hong’s son.

Lu Hong’s man, Wang Yongjun, is the company commander under Xie Chengxiao.

They were brothers who served in the army together, but because Xie Chengxiao had outstanding abilities, he became a regimental commander at the age of 28. Wang Yongjun was two years older than him, and although he was only a company commander, it was considered a good position for his age.

Wang Yongjun treats Xie Chengxiao as his own brother, and Lu Hong is a sincere and cheerful person.

Before, the original owner abused the two treasures and ignored them. Lu Hong usually took care of them as if they were her own sons. As long as the guards had a bite to eat, the two treasures would also have a share.

But after hearing what Qiao Shuling said, the two treasures were stunned.

They used their short legs to hug Qiao Shuling’s thighs.

Two cute little faces were raised up.

“Mom, don’t you want us anymore?”

“Mmmmm, mom, please don’t go–“

Qiao Shuling: “…”

It seems that the psychological trauma left by the original owner on these two guys is really deep.

She had no choice but to squat down and look at the two treasures at eye level.

“My dear babies, I love you so much. How could I possibly not want you? I’m just going shopping. Don’t you want to eat the delicious lunch?”

Thinking of the delicious lunch that was almost mouth-watering, the two babies’ mouths were watering.

But they are more afraid of their mother leaving than delicious food.

Liang Bao still held onto Qiao Shuling’s sleeves tightly.

After Qiao Shuling persuaded them in every possible way, they reluctantly went to Lu Hong’s house.

The market and supply and marketing cooperative are some distance away from the family compound.

The living conditions in the army are much better than those outside. The leaders even send buses to pick up family members three times a day.

After lunch, a large group of people were heading to the city to shop.

The bus is similar to a tractor and can hold about a dozen people if you squeeze in.

The news that Qiao Shuling tried to chop He Chunlan with an axe in the morning and did not give Wei Guofang toilet paper had spread.

Originally, the impression that the people in the family compound had of Qiao Shuling was that she was always acting weird and looked like the type who would go out and flirt with men.

And everyone knows that Qiao Shuling has big gaps between her fingers, so anyone can take advantage of her——

Except for the two children she gave birth to.

Who would have thought that Qiao Shuling’s temperament would change so drastically today. Not only did he not let anyone take advantage of him, but he also started to protect his cub.

A sister-in-law’s eyes fell on Qiao Shuling and said strangely, “Isn’t this Captain Xie’s wife? What is she doing in the city again? Could it be…”

When she said this, her expression was full of disdain, as if Qiao Shuling was going out to have an affair.

Qiao Shuling sighed inwardly.

What kind of image did the original owner have among the family members in the compound?

But Qiao Shuling was a little displeased by her sister-in-law’s scrutiny. She was never one to suffer a loss. “Sister-in-law, I want to go to the city’s supply and marketing cooperative to buy something. Why do I have to report this to you?”

The eldest sister-in-law was a person who bullied the weak and feared the strong. Because of Qiao Shuling’s appearance, she liked to say sour words in front of her.

The original owner suffered from it before, but she won’t.

The sister-in-law didn’t expect that Qiao Shuling’s temperament would suddenly change. She was so annoyed that she shut up.

The cars at that time were different from those in later generations. They were not very stable when driving on small roads and would shake from time to time. Qiao Shuling almost vomited when she got into the city.

After getting off the car, she found an empty corner, entered the space and drank a sip of spiritual spring water.

After drinking the spiritual spring water, she felt much better instantly.

She even felt that her skin had become radiant.

There are still ten kilograms of meat in the space that was exchanged at noon. Although the space can only be exchanged once a day, the quantity is still quite large.

After Qiao Shuling came out of the space, she arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative. Looking at the faded green-painted wooden door, the feeling of traveling back to the 1980s became even stronger.

In that era, being a teller at a supply and marketing cooperative was a very respectable job. Tellers wore Dacron clothes and sorted the goods on the shelves.

Qiao Shuling tapped the glass counter. “Comrade, give me two cans of malted milk.”
