The Pretty Military Wife

Zhu Guixiang seemed not to have heard clearly, and said in surprise:

"What? Xinyue, are you saying that you should give me some money even though I didn't do anything?"

Liang Xinyue laughed and said:

"Of course, but not as high as those of us who work. Not to mention you, even Sister Fu has gone to the city to take care of her children. She only comes back to work every weekend. Sometimes she can work in a vegetable store in the county town. I still have to pay her wages."

"As long as they are from our family compound, and have worked here, and are willing to work here, but cannot work due to special circumstances, I will at least give them the basic salary."

When Zhu Guixiang heard this benefit, she felt particularly comforted.

Of course I know that my health has not been very good recently, but I heard that I can still earn at least ten dollars a month without doing any work.

Maybe it is less than the dozens of dollars I made before, but compared to the past, when I was in my hometown, I made less than ten dollars a year.

Now Liang Xinyue said that she would give it to her every month, and she didn’t know what to say for a moment.

Liang Xinyue thought for a moment and said:

"Now that Wenqing is gone, you should help look after the kids at home. You don't have to hold them. If you want to hold a child, just call Aunt Li. From now on, you can just ask the older ones to take care of the younger ones in the yard. This will count as something you have done."

"Hey, hey, okay, okay, you can look after the baby, I'll go back and look after the child now."

Zhu Guixiang seemed to have found her goal and had done something, which was to get a salary other than the basic salary.

Having said that, he immediately turned around and went back to see the child.

In fact, the younger children in the family now are Liang Xinyue’s two children and Huang Ying’s little daughter. Every day Huang Ying asks Dayong to bring the little sister to Aunt Li’s place to play.

Xiaobing will be here soon, as well as Wang Zhi and Xiao Wangju. Aunt Li is still looking after the children.

Now that Zhu Guixiang has gone back to look after the children, she feels more at ease. After all, the older ones are all boys. They used to be looked after by Yaya, so they were not so wild. But now there is no Yaya to look after them.

After Zhu Guixiang left, Sister Yang said:

"Alas, if you don't think about taking good care of your body first, I've never seen a pregnant woman as thin as her. If this happens, giving birth will be very annoying."

Liang Xinyue also said:

"So, I wanted to take her into the city to get checked out."

Huang Ying said:

"She won't listen to you. Otherwise, you should tell Captain Long and let him take her there."

Liang Xinyue thought about it and nodded:

"Okay, I'll talk to Captain Long and see if he can take a leave and bring her along. I'll be driving anyway, so I'll go with her. I also think she's too thin. I heard from my little sister that she's been vomiting a bit lately."

Cleaning up the dead vines is also a meticulous job. I couldn’t finish it even after a whole morning, mainly because I planted too many this time.

When it was almost noon, Liang Xinyue called Zhou Xiaoying:

"Sister Ying, will you come back with me? Let's go back to see Dabao and Xiaobao and cook."

She also knew that Zhou Xiaoying had never worked before. She had worked all morning and was afraid she would not be able to bear it if she continued working. It was a bit hot today.

When Zhou Xiaoying heard her sister calling her, she ran to Liang Xinyue, but after hearing what Liang Xinyue said, she looked up at Liang Jun again.

Liang Jun said gently:

"Go help your sister cook. Dad and I will dig for a while."

"Ah."

Zhou Xiaoying, like a shy little girl, took Liang Xinyue's hand and walked home together.

When she got home and saw the children in the yard, she smiled happily. She walked over and hugged Xiaobao. She wanted to hug Dabao, but Dabao smiled and moved aside:

"Mom, I'm grown up now, don't hold me anymore."

Xiaobao also said immediately:

"Mom, I'm grown up now, and I don't want to be hugged anymore."

Little Jiajia didn't. She came over with her short legs and threw herself into Zhou Xiaoying's arms:

"Aunt."

Zhou Xiaoying sat down on the ground and smiled happily.

Liang Xinyue smiled and said:

"Jia Jia, are you ignoring your mother now that you have an aunt?"

The other children also gathered around Zhou Xiaoying. Xiaobing looked at Zhou Xiaoying and then at Dabao. He had been classmates with Dabao for a few days, so he was familiar with Dabao:

"Dabao, is this your mother?"

Dabao nodded.

"Your mother is so beautiful."

Indeed, Zhou Xiaoying is fair and plump and looks young. In addition, there is nothing confused in her mind and she is in a childlike state. This behavior is self-evident, and children are most likely to get close to her.

Zhou Xiaoying heard it and replied politely:

"Your mother is beautiful too."

Unexpectedly, the soldier said seriously:

"My mother is not beautiful. She is very thin. You are more beautiful."

Suddenly, Zhu Guixiang, who was sitting on the other side, froze.

Liang Xinyue could only pretend not to hear and tease her two sons, then deliberately spoke loudly:

"Ahh, Mommy, go wash your hands."

When Liang Xinyue went to wash her hands, she heard Dabao also say to Long Xiaobing:

"Your mother is also very beautiful. My aunt said that every mother is very beautiful because mothers suffered a lot when they gave birth to us. Your mother is thin now because she was pregnant with your brother. Your brother is absorbing her nutrition. When you were a child, your mother was pregnant with you, and you also absorbed your mother's nutrition."

The soldier listened blankly at first. It was such a long speech, and he needed to digest it slowly. After thinking for a while, the soldier suddenly remembered something and burst into tears.

Liang Xinyue came over just after washing her hands and hurried forward to coax her:

"What's the matter?"

Dabao felt a little aggrieved:

"Aunt, I didn't scold him. I told him that every mother is beautiful. You said that every mother should not be disliked. I don't even dislike my mother."

The soldier cried:

“Wu…wu…I…I don’t hate my mother, I…wu…”

Zhu Guixiang also came over and said:

"Okay, okay, you don't mind, and mom didn't say anything to you, don't cry, what Dabao brother said is right."

Zhu Guixiang half-knelt down and hugged her son. Unexpectedly, the soldier cried and said:

"Mom, is it because I absorbed your nutrients that you are thin?"

After the soldier finished speaking, he cried even louder. He felt like he had done something very wrong. His mother had become so thin because of the nutrients she had absorbed from him.

"Mom, I was wrong. I shouldn't have sucked your nutrients. I sucked too much. Ugh..."

After hearing this, Zhu Guixiang and Liang Xinyue felt angry, amused, and even a little like crying.

Children are so naive. He just thinks that he absorbed the nutrition from his mother and that is why his mother became so thin. He thinks he was wrong.

What's even more wrong is that I just said that my mother is not beautiful. The reason why my mother is not beautiful is because I sucked up her nutrients.

Zhu Guixiang was choking up a little, and Liang Xinyue took the opportunity to educate Zhu Guixiang:

"Look, if you take good care of your body, it will be a great thing for your children."

It took some effort to explain to the soldier what was going on, and only then did he feel comforted.
