The Pretty Military Wife

Chapter 6 Returning to Mother’s Home

Follow the army?

Liang Xinyue's eyes lit up. Isn't this just like someone giving you a pillow when you're dozing off?

Joining the army would allow me to escape from the clutches of this family. Besides, the military camp has always been the most righteous and brightest place. Living there would definitely not be such great pressure.

Besides, as a time traveler, if I stay where I am, something will go wrong sooner or later. It would be a good idea to move to another place!

Liang Xinyue's mind was very clear.

Just when I was about to agree, a little light came through the small window of the main room.

It was Liu Jinxiu who got up.

In the original body's memory, Liu Jinxiu rarely got up early. Before going to bed, she would put the food to be cooked the next day in a pot in the kitchen and cover it with a lid.

The next day, Liang Xinyue prepared dinner, so she got up and had something to eat, and then went to work.

Maybe she was thinking about her youngest son coming back alive today.

Liang Xinyue said quickly:

"Will your parents agree to let you take me away?"

Ten years of military career have made Zhou Guoliang a man of his word.

He made this decision after thinking about it overnight.

Although he did not marry this wife of his own free will, it was because of the trouble his family had caused him, and he had treated her like this for three years.

If I don't take responsibility, this girl might be forced to death.

"I'm not young anymore, it's time to get married. You and I can get the marriage certificate and then I can take you away."

The door of the main room creaked open, and when Liu Jinxiu came out, she saw two people standing in front of the door:

"Liang Xinyue, take these rice and eggs and cook them. Cook white rice this morning. Don't eat this steamed egg custard secretly again. If you do, I'll kill you."

It seems that I made a sudden decision last night to eat white rice this morning.

In Liang Xinyue's memory, the family had only a limited number of times to eat white rice during the past three years. Apart from the Chinese New Year, they would cook white rice on the day when the team distributed food and calculated work points every year.

But they were the only ones who ate it, Liang Xinyue had no share.

Thinking about what Zhou Guoliang said, that he would take her to get the certificate later, Liang Xinyue took the rice and eggs with anticipation, went into the kitchen and started cooking skillfully.

Having the memories of the original body really makes things a lot more convenient for Liang Xinyue.

Seeing Liang Xinyue enter the kitchen to cook, Liu Jinxiu said:

"San'er, if you look down on this woman, mother will send her back to the Liang family. Don't worry, your father is the captain, and the Liang family won't dare to let your sister down."

Liu Jinxiu was able to control the Liang family just because he was the captain, so he never took Liang Xinyue seriously.

"Mom, we need to change some of the old social practices. You can't look at people with the old ideas anymore. Xinyue is fine. I was not at home before, so you must not have gotten us a marriage certificate. Today I went to the commune to get the marriage certificate. Otherwise, I'm afraid it will take another year or two when I come back next time."

Zhou Guoliang only has one day to get everything done, so he has to make good preparations.

To get a marriage certificate, you need a letter of introduction. You have to go to the village to get a letter of introduction first.

While he was planning this, Liu Jinxiu said with some surprise:

"Are you really going to marry her?"

"Mom, didn't you choose this for me? She has been in our house for three years. You can't just abandon her like this. I am a soldier. I can't do this. I will be punished."

The word "punishment" made Liu Jinxiu shrink his neck and mutter:

"If I had known you were alive, I wouldn't have brought back a skinny one with such a small butt that it looks difficult to give birth."

Zhou Guoliang: …

At daybreak, Liu Jinxiu went to her own private plot and picked some vegetables, and asked Liang Xinyue to cook them.

Two pickled vegetables, a fried fresh vegetable, a steamed egg, and white rice, today's breakfast suddenly became rich.

While Liang Xinyue was cooking, Zhou Guoliang also saw how the family treated her.

No one would go to the kitchen to add firewood, Liang Xinyue was the only one working in the kitchen.

While cooking, I also have to chop up some of the grass I brought back yesterday, add some rice sugar and cook it. This will become pig food.

They were the only family in the team that raised a pig. Some other families couldn't even feed themselves, so how could they afford to feed a pig?

The three children who were called to eat were extremely happy.

But when they saw their uncle wearing a military uniform, they were a little scared. To the children, he was a stranger.

Only then did Zhou Guoliang realize that in the bag he brought back, there were two barrels of malted milk, two kilograms of white sugar, and one kilogram of fruit candy.

Zhou Guoliang took it out and handed it to Liu Jinxiu:

"Mom, Dad, I didn't buy anything for you, keep these for yourself."

He took out the money he had prepared to give back to his family from his bag, which included ten big unity bills and some food and meat coupons. He also gave them to Liu Jinxiu.

Liu Jinxiu immediately put on her apron and went into her room and put all her things in the closet.

The three children also knew what was good, and they ran after Liu Jinxiu, wanting some candy.

Zhang Lianhua was attracted by the big unity banknotes. There were ten of them, which was the most money she had ever seen.

I didn't expect that the third brother still had money while serving in the army.

After dinner, Zhou Guoliang prepared to go to the village to get a letter of introduction.

As the team leader, Zhou Dezhu also wanted to show off his son, who had returned after ten years, so he personally took Zhou Guoliang and Liang Xinyue to the village.

When the village Party Secretary Liao saw Zhou Guoquan, he was extremely surprised:

"The third brother is still alive. It's good that he's back. It's good that he's back."

And when he heard that Zhou Guoliang was serving in the army, the secretary immediately handed Zhou Guoliang a cigarette:

"Uncle Liao, I don't smoke."

"Ah, I understand, I understand. You soldiers are disciplined. That's a good thing, a good thing."

As he spoke, Secretary Liao took out Liang Xinyue's letter of introduction, saying that Zhou Guoliang didn't need it as he had his ID.

Zhou Dezhu didn't have to accompany them to the commune because he was the team leader and had to go back to ask the team members to go to work.

Zhou Guoliang took Liang Xinyue to the commune alone.

There is a main road leading out of the brigade, and there is a fork in the road about a mile or two ahead.

When he got there, Zhou Guoliang walked towards the fork in the road.

"Just take the main road to the commune."

Zhou Guoliang looked at her and said:

"Let's go to your house first. There's not much time left, so I can only go and take a look. Can't I just take you away without even saying hello?"

Liang Xinyue: ...Oh, I forgot that this road leads to my original body’s parents’ home. I was still immersed in the excitement of leaving here.

However, I was also touched by Zhou Guoliang's attentiveness.

Liangjia is in the fifth team of Xintang Village, and the small place is called Liangjiawan.

Everyone who lives here has the surname Liang.

So, as soon as Zhou Guoliang heard where it was, he could find the place.

Although I had seen the Liang family's appearance in my memory, it was hard to believe when I actually visited the place and saw the dilapidated thatched house. The eaves were so low that a person had to bend over to enter.

There are bamboo forests in front of and behind the house. If you don’t get closer, you wouldn’t know that there is a family living in the bamboo forest.

Liang Xinyue can only sigh about life in this era.

When she reached the gate of the fence in front of the yard, Liang Xinyue called out timidly:

"Sister Ying."

She was a little worried because the Liang family members were the ones who knew her best, and she was afraid of being exposed in front of them.

I am no longer the original Liang Xinyue.
