Chapter 60: Brother Yubai Is My Husband, Not an Outsider!

Before going to the hospital, Shen Chuning took the large bag of scraps of cloth to He Hui.

“Sister He Hui, I saw these cheap scraps of cloth at the supply and marketing cooperative today, and I thought of learning to make shoe soles from you when I have free time.

I only want this dark blue piece to make shoe soles, the rest is your apprenticeship gift, okay?” Shen Chuning said directly.

Actually, the cloth she bought, although called scraps, wasn’t the kind of small scraps left over from making clothes in rural families.

They were pieces of cloth left over after a three-chi or five-chi piece of cloth was cut and sold in the supply and marketing cooperative. They couldn’t be used to make clothes, so they were left there, and when there were many accumulated, they were sold as scraps.

He Hui’s tailoring skills were good, and she could use these pieces of cloth to make clothes.

He Hui was a little surprised, “Ningning, you…”

Their family was neighbors with the Shen family, and He Hui knew better than anyone else in the village what Shen Chuning was like before.

Before, the village rumored that Shen Chuning was spoiled, pretentious, and lazy and gluttonous, and it wasn’t wrong.

Shen Chuning, in the past, really didn’t touch any housework in the Shen family, she was completely spoiled.

Shen Chuning saw what He Hui was thinking, “Hehe” smiled, and said a little embarrassedly, “Sister He Hui, I’m married now! I have to learn to do what I should do.”

He Hui was only half a year older than Shen Chuning, and they grew up together.

When they were young, they often played together, but He Hui had to help with the housework around the age of five, while Shen Chuning never had to do anything.

The time they played together gradually decreased.

When her mother was looking for someone for her to meet, she had boldly said that she liked someone like Shen Zhengxu.

Her mother didn’t realize that she liked Shen Zhengxu, only thinking that if the Shen family didn’t have a daughter like Shen Chuning, Shen Zhengxu was steady and hardworking, and also clever, marrying him wouldn’t be bad.

It was a pity that there was a younger sister like Shen Chuning…

After that, her mother kept busy finding someone for her to meet, and didn’t mention Shen Zhengxu again.

Because of this, she had some opinions about Shen Chuning.

At the same time, when she heard people talk about Shen Chuning, she also felt sorry for the Shen family.

Now that Shen Chuning was willing to learn to do things, she was quite happy.

“Ningning, don’t be so polite. After the sweet potatoes are harvested, there’s no work in the fields, and I don’t have anything to do anyway. It’s just making shoe soles, I’ll teach you then, you keep this cloth.”

Shen Chuning quickly put her hands behind her back and said, “I’ve already brought the things, why would I take them back?”

“Sister He Hui, I still need to go to the commune hospital to take care of my second brother, I’ll go first!”

Saying this, without waiting for He Hui to react, she quickly rode her bicycle away.

“Xiaohui, who are you talking to?” He Auntie came out of the house at this time.

He Hui told her mother what happened.

He Auntie couldn’t help but sigh, “At that time, everyone in the village said that Ningning was spoiled by Shen Qingsong, and she would definitely not be able to get married.

Who would have thought that not only did she get married, but she married better than anyone else.”

“As for you…” He Auntie’s wistful gaze fell on He Hui, “You’ve been helping your family with housework since you were young, who in the village doesn’t praise you? But why is it so difficult to find a husband?

You’re already twenty-one after the new year, and you haven’t found a suitable one.

Tell Mother, what kind of person do you like, and Mother will help you find one, okay?”

He Hui stared at the large bag of scraps of cloth in her arms and whispered, “Didn’t I tell you before?”

After saying this, she blushed and ran into the house.

He Auntie was puzzled, “Hey, you girl, when did you tell me?”

Shen Chuning returned to the commune hospital and was about to enter the ward as usual.

But as soon as she opened the ward door a crack, she saw Wang Yumeng bending down and gently kissing her second brother’s lips.

Shen Chuning was instantly shocked.

Although she knew that her second brother was interested in Wang Yumeng, and Wang Yumeng had been visiting her second brother every day, their relationship would definitely develop.

But she never expected that they would develop to the point of kissing!

Moreover, her second brother was in a three-bed ward.

There should be other people in the ward, and they were kissing so openly?

While Shen Chuning was still stunned, Wang Yumeng, blushing shyly, ran out of the ward.

Seeing Shen Chuning, she didn’t greet her as usual.

She just ran away.

Shen Chuning: …

Weren’t you quite proactive and open when you kissed Second Brother just now?

You’ve already kissed, why are you still shy.

Shen Chuning pushed open the door and entered the ward, only then did she realize that the patients in the other two beds had been discharged today.

Now there was only her second brother in the ward.

No wonder Wang Yumeng dared to be so bold.

“Ningning, you’re back?” Shen Zhengliang greeted Shen Chuning, grinning with eight teeth.

He looked like he had drunk fake alcohol.

“Mm, I’m back.” Shen Chuning responded, deliberately asking, “I saw Comrade Wang running out shyly just now, what did you do to her? Didn’t you cross the line?”

Shen Zhengliang wanted to put on a stern face.

But the corners of his mouth were hard to suppress.

So he still had a silly smile on his face and said, “No, how could I? Believe in your Second Brother’s character, your Second Brother isn’t that kind of person.”

Shen Chuning raised her eyebrows and deliberately drew out her words, “Oh? Really?”

Shen Zhengliang controlled his happy mood and looked at Shen Chuning’s neck.

Finding that the pendant she had worn since she was a child wasn’t on her neck, he couldn’t help but ask, “Ningning, I remember you always wore the koi pendant your mother left you, why haven’t you been wearing it recently?”

Shen Chuning’s heart skipped a beat.

Shen Zhengliang would never suddenly notice that she wasn’t wearing the pendant, could it be that Wang Yumeng had already asked him for the pendant.

“Oh, didn’t Dad say that the pendant is for protection? I thought that Brother Yubai was in danger on the front line and needed protection more than me. So I gave him the pendant.” Shen Chuning said casually.

“What? You gave the pendant to Zhou Yubai?” Shen Zhengliang sat up excitedly, “Ningning, that’s an heirloom left by Mother, how can you give it to an outsider?”

Shen Chuning frowned, looking at Shen Zhengliang unhappily, and said seriously, “Second Brother, Brother Yubai is my husband, not an outsider!”

Shen Zhengliang realized that he had been too excited just now, and calmed down, saying, “Ningning, that pendant is our Shen family’s heirloom. You’re already married, you’re not part of our Shen family anymore, you should keep the pendant at home.

Find some time to write a letter to Zhou Yubai and ask him to send the pendant back.”
