The Pretty Military Wife

Such a simple sentence is naturally not the result Liang Xinyue wanted:

"That's all? I want to know, he has a child and is remarried, do you have any thoughts or requests?"

Min Honglian blushed and turned around and said:

"No, it's not like I don't know about his situation. I'm also looking after the two children. Besides, I... do you know about my situation?"

Liang Xinyue didn't say anything. She listened to Director Ye's brief talk, but she never asked Min Honglian about her past.

Finally, Min Honglian said slowly:

"My family and I have actually cut off contact. My family originally arranged a marriage for me, and we grew up in the same courtyard since we were young."

"But later on, his family was not well-off due to their background, and his parents died during the investigation. Then, when he was sent to labor education, I wanted to go with him, but my family stopped me."

"When I heard about him again, he was seriously ill. I ignored my family's objections and fled to the place where he was undergoing labor education. It was much harder than here. He did the hardest work and was looked down upon by others. When I found him, he was so thin that he could not even get out of bed."

"If there wasn't a person of the same level there who occasionally gave him something to eat, he might not have made it to my day."

"Later, I took care of him and did all his work. My family was notified and came to me, asking me to leave him. I refused, and they severed ties with me in front of the organization."

"It was mainly because they didn't want me to get involved with them. I was only eighteen years old that year."

"I stayed there, accompanied him, and took care of him. He was actually only nineteen years old. He was very well educated, but..."

When Liang Xinyue arrived at this era, she knew some things about this era based on some past events she had heard from her previous life and some movies and TV shows she had watched.

But she knew that the people she interacted with were all country people from her hometown and people in the army here, and they had little to do with that kind of activities.

So, I didn’t feel it was very real.

After listening to Min Honglian's story again, she stopped and listened carefully, feeling heavy in her heart.

"As a result, after I stayed there, they classified me as the same as him and treated me the same way. Fortunately, I was in good health. He couldn't bear to see me being bullied, so he wrote a letter."

"Half a month later, someone came to pick him and me up. We took him back to the provincial capital. He was sent to the hospital for treatment, and I was assigned to work for Director Ye. I didn't know at first, but before he died, I found out that he had used his father's skills to exchange for my job."

Speaking of this, Min Honglian burst into tears.

After calming down for a while, Min Honglian said:

"But he returned to the hospital too late. His illness was not cured. He just arranged my affairs well by the bedside. Xinyue, you don't know that when he died, he held me tightly and was reluctant to die."

As she spoke, Min Honglian burst into tears in Liang Xinyue's arms. They were the only two in the valley, and maybe crying would help.

"I found out his ashes and those of his parents, who were still in the funeral home, and buried the three of them together. I hope they can live a good life."

"I don't know who the person who arranged the work for me was, but he asked me to help with the burial. Otherwise, given his father's status, he would have been prevented from doing so."

"After that, I just kept working quietly. Whenever I had time, I would go to see them. I have been working like this for eight years. Some people have introduced me to other jobs, but I have never thought about looking for another one."

"My family saw that I had been assigned a good job and wanted to look for me again, but I ignored them. Over the years, they have been scattered because of work or because they were sent to work as educated youth, and I didn't care. For them, one more or one less may not make much difference, but for him, I was his only hope at that time."

Liang Xinyue couldn't imagine how much determination a young girl had to make such choices in such a situation. And how much suffering she had endured there, she couldn't help but admire Min Honglian sincerely.

Min Honglian wiped her tears and said in a hoarse voice:

"Coming here, to be honest, I was deeply touched by your family compound. It's obviously just a few families. It's obviously all rural women from all over the place, but you're united like a family."

"The sense of happiness that emanates from every family is something that one can only envy."

"At first, I didn't have any thoughts about Xiao Shun. As you said, he is divorced and has two children. But after getting to know him, I found that he has many good qualities."

"The first person who brought up this idea with me was Sister Yang. When you were in confinement, Sister Yang sometimes brought little Jiajia to play with me. By the way, Yaya is very protective of you. When you were not around, as long as she didn't have classes, she would always accompany little Jiajia."

Liang Xinyue nodded. She knew that Yaya cared about her, but she didn't expect that Yaya would still take care of Xiao Jiajia even when she was not around.

"When Yaya came, Xiaoer naturally followed her sister and came over. Xiaoer is a bit clingy. Sometimes Xiaoshun has to come over to find someone else before leaving. Plus, when you're not here, we have to discuss and do some things in the valley."

Liang Xinyue understood and knew that this was the case, and the two of them might have more contact.

Liang Xinyue smiled and said:

"Now I understand. I tell you, Xiao Shun is really a good person."

Then, she talked about Xiao Shun and Lin Xiaoju in detail, and explained why Yaya was so close to her.

When Min Honglian heard about Yaya's situation, she opened her mouth in surprise:

"Really? Now seeing Yaya smiling happily every day, you can't tell that this child has been through so much. However, Yaya does seem to be much more sensible than other children of the same age."

Liang Xinyue smiled and said:

"Xiaoer is also very well behaved. These two children know how to be grateful. If you treat them well, they will treat you well. Although Xiao Shun is missing a leg, you can see that he is no worse than others in doing anything."

Min Honglian nodded and said:

"He just has some low self-esteem."

Liang Xinyue patted Min Honglian and said:

"It's okay. With you in the future, I believe he will be able to stand better and walk further."

As they talked, they went to measure the land. They also had to quickly build the shed and plant the vegetables. The vegetables they planted this time would be just in time for the lean season next year, which would be right after the Chinese New Year.

If this batch of vegetables is delivered to the county town, it will be truly unique.
