The military wife is pregnant and the tycoon, who has no heir, spoils her rotten.

Chapter 25 Even selling vegetables is a mystery

Zhang Yi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and his eyes became a little moist. "The battalion commander is sick. He will definitely come to see everyone when he gets better."

Upon hearing this, the group quickly offered their concern and tried their best to give Zhang Yi something, but Zhang Yi rejected all their offers.

Xia Zhi watched this scene silently. The fact that the people cared so much about Lu Beiting showed that he was truly a good military officer in their eyes. How could she bear to let such a person spend his whole life in a wheelchair?

Xia Zhi took a deep breath and suddenly felt relieved. "Zhang Yi, let's go back."

The two had just turned around when they heard a commotion not far away.

"Hey, how do you do the math, young lady? You've shortchanged me by five cents."

In front of a vegetable stall, a man holding vegetables in one hand and looking at the money in the other immediately sensed something was wrong and yelled at Hao Liping.

Who knows if they did it on purpose?

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'll pay you back now." Hao Liping looked flustered, then hurriedly looked for change, beads of sweat appearing on her forehead.

The more anxious he became, the less he could figure it out. It took him a long time to find the money and hand it to the woman in front of him.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry," Hao Liping apologized, her eyes red and her face full of grievance.

Hearing this, the middle-aged woman next to her looked at the vegetables in her hand, then picked up the scale next to her and weighed them herself. Her face immediately darkened when she saw the scale. She threw the vegetables in her arms onto the stall and pointed at the stall, cursing at her.

"Hey, this isn't right either, the weight is wrong. Young lady, do you even know how to sell vegetables? What's going on here? I don't want it anymore, it's such a waste of time."

Upon seeing this, the people nearby quickly put down the vegetables they were carrying, saying that something was wrong with this and that, and who would dare to buy this?

As Hao Liping watched the departing customers, tears welled up in her eyes. "It's just selling vegetables, why are there so many demands?"

"What happened?" Gu Yun Shen heard the commotion and rushed over. He frowned when he saw the perfectly good vegetables scattered everywhere, some of them even spoiled.

When Hao Liping saw Gu Yunshen, she immediately burst into tears, feeling wronged. "Waaah, it's just a few cents wrong in the calculation, do they have to be so fierce?"

In her previous life, she had never calculated such trivial matters. She could have figured out even larger amounts, but who could possibly calculate these fractions of a cent?

Gu Yunshen looked at Hao Liping, who was crying uncontrollably, and noticed the stares of those around them. He quickly comforted her, "Alright, alright, I'll take care of it."

Gu Yunshen reluctantly packed up his stall and started calling out to customers. He turned his head and saw Xia Zhi standing not far away. His words caught in his throat.

He had never interfered with Xia Zhi's vegetable selling before. Sometimes when they came to the market together, he would finish his own business and go home.

Thinking about it this way, Xia Zhi is much less troublesome than Hao Liping. How come Hao Liping can't even sell vegetables well?

When Hao Liping saw Gu Yunshen stunned, she immediately followed his gaze and saw Xia Zhi standing not far away.

So Xia Zhi saw the whole embarrassing thing that happened to her?
Seeing Hao Liping's expression, Xia Zhi immediately smiled and walked forward, looking like she wanted to punch her, and said, "That's right, I saw it all, Hao Liping, you can't even do basic math and you want to sell vegetables? You should go home and farm."

"Oh no, asking you to farm is already giving you too much credit. You should just go back to being a good-for-nothing, eating and waiting to die."

"You!" Hao Liping stomped her foot in anger.

Xia Zhi raised an eyebrow and smiled, shaking her head with a mocking expression. "Tsk tsk tsk."

Then he led Zhang Yi directly past the two of them.

Hao Liping looked at Zhang Yi's overflowing possessions, both on his back and in his hands, and her eyes immediately turned red with envy.

How could Xia Zhi buy so much stuff? She even bought chickens! If they grow up, we could slaughter them and eat them. Hao Liping swallowed hard at the thought, then tugged at Gu Yunshen's arm, "Brother Yunshen, let's buy chickens too."

Gu Yunshen frowned. "Liping, we still have to sell vegetables. There are still so many that haven't been sold yet."

The money I just spent isn't even enough for the round-trip fare, let alone enough to buy chickens.

Hao Liping bit her lower lip in frustration.

Gu Yunshen patted her back and said, "Liping, you're a good girl, you'll understand me, right? Look at how extravagant Xia Zhi is with money, even if Lu Beiting has more, she'll squander it all."

While comforting Hao Liping, Gu Yunshen also comforted himself, thinking that it was a good thing he didn't marry Xia Zhi, that spendthrift woman, otherwise, with her spending habits, he would have been bankrupt sooner or later.

When Hao Liping heard Gu Yunshen compare Xia Zhi to herself, she immediately blushed and fidgeted a few times, then said coquettishly, "Brother Yunshen, don't worry, I will never be like Xia Zhi."

Gu Yunshen's lips curled up slightly, "Yes, I knew Liping was the best. You said you would definitely get into university in the future, and I will definitely treat you well. I will buy you more things than Xia Zhi does."

Gu Yunshen easily charmed Hao Liping with just a few words, making her overjoyed.

After Xia Zhi returned to the car, she waited for the people who had purchased the supplies to come back. Once everyone was there, the group went back.

Hao Liping and Gu Yunshen finally sold all the vegetables and ran back to find that Uncle Liu's carriage was no longer there.

"Brother Yun Shen, what are we going to do now? It's getting dark, are we going to be unable to get back?"

Hao Liping put her arm around his arm and whispered in his ear, "Brother Yun Shen, there are hotels in town, how about we..."

Hao Liping looked at him meaningfully, and Gu Yunshen instantly understood what she meant.

After all, their first time together was in a hotel.

Gu Yun Shen didn't agree immediately, but looked at her with difficulty, "But Li Ping, I don't have that much money on me."

"I have one!" Hao Liping said, taking his arm after he agreed, and they walked towards the hotel with practiced ease.

In her previous life, she was a widow for her entire life, but this time she has finally tasted the sweetness of life.

Ignoring the strange looks from those around them, the two went to a hotel room while embracing and hugging.

……

Xia Zhi returned to the army with Zhang Yi, followed by Xu Rufeng.

Hearing the noise at the door, Lu Beiting, who was inside the room, couldn't help but look outside.

Then Xia Zhi smiled at Xu Rufeng and took the chicken coop from her hand. "Thank you, Squad Leader Xu. I only have a few candies here. Please accept them if you don't mind."

"Thank you." Xu Rufeng smiled and accepted it, looking at her with a smile in his eyes.

Lu Beiting felt a tightness in his chest as he watched Xia Zhi hand the candy in her hand to Xu Rufeng.

Then, seeing Xu Rufeng's infatuated look, he felt increasingly unhappy. Perhaps because he was too excited, he choked up and started coughing violently.

"Cough cough cough, cough cough cough!"

The noise from Lu Beiting's side quickly attracted the attention of the group.
