Sweet love in military marriage: an egg in exchange for a rough husband

The Han family gasped in shock at Han Sen's "tiger-like" words. Everyone looked at each other, wondering if the third brother had a fever and was confused. Otherwise, how could he dare to make such a request?

"Third brother, what did you say? Just to marry Su Yunyun, your father and mother have to prepare three major items and a big tiled house?" Han's mother still couldn't believe it and asked tremblingly.

"Yes, mother, Su Yunyun's father is an accountant, her eldest brother is a team leader, her third brother works in a supply and marketing cooperative, and she herself is a teacher. If the betrothal gifts are not well prepared, not good enough, or not enough, and there is no tile house, it would be too unfair to her. I have no face and no way to propose marriage."

"If there is no other way, then don't marry him. Are you marrying a Buddha or an ancestor? Why do you need so many things?!" Han's mother confirmed that it was Han Sen who said the "treasonous" words just now. She excitedly pounded her chest with her fist, as if Han Sen had done something unforgivable and hurt her heart.

"Mom, how can you say that? Preparing the three major items and a house to marry a wife, isn't this in line with our family's old rules?" Han Sen continued, repeating the three major items and the tiled house just to provoke them, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes. Unfortunately, the Han family was immersed in the shock of the third brother's rebellion, and they didn't react for a long time and didn't notice.

"What old rules? How come we don't know them?" Han's father and mother were stunned by the question. When did their family have so many rules? The head of the family didn't know about them.

"When I was still in the army, you all wrote to my eldest and second brothers before they were getting married. In the letters, you told me that you couldn't let my eldest and second sisters-in-law down and that they had to buy three big items. You asked me to send the money back quickly. I didn't have enough money, so I discussed with you whether we could wait a bit. You said the wedding date was tight and asked me to figure it out on my own. What else could I do in the army? I could only shamelessly borrow money from all my comrades. Later, you said that my eldest and second sisters-in-law asked to build a tiled house, so you asked me to send money back so that we could build this big tiled house." Han Sen recounted what his parents did before his eldest and second brothers got married.

"I think my elder and second brothers did it this way, so it should be the same old rule for me. Besides, I should have a lot of money sent back over the years. If I calculate it, I can buy the betrothal gifts and build a tiled house with more than enough money!" Han Sen looked at them blankly and threw another heavy punch.

Han Sen got what he wanted and finally woke them up.

"Third brother, it's been so long, you must have remembered it wrongly," Han's mother couldn't stand being exposed like this, especially since it was her most hated son who exposed her. "And what money do we have left at home? I have to tell you the truth from the bottom of my heart. We have no money at home for a long time."

"Mom, that's impossible. I send so much money back home every year, and you two are so good at managing the household." Han Sen lingered on the word "manage the household" for a moment. If you think about it carefully, you will know that it is full of irony. "There must be a lot left at home!"

Hearing Han Sen constantly saying that there was still money at home, Han Mu and Han Lin were very excited. They also wanted to know how much money their parents had so that they could be prepared and not let their parents give the money to the eldest or second child privately.

Han Sen knew from the reactions of his eldest and second brothers that they were suspicious of each other, but it had nothing to do with him. "Dad, Mom, just give us the money! We can also marry your third son-in-law as soon as possible."

Mother Han never thought that she would be forced to take money by Han Sen, who was always obedient and cowardly in her eyes. But money was her life. How could she give money to this son who made her so annoyed just by looking at him?

"Oh my God, please open your eyes and look. There is actually a son like this in the world who comes to ask his mother for money. This is going to drive me to death!" Han's mother simply sat down on the ground, slapped her thighs rhythmically with her hands, and howled.

Soon, villagers outside the courtyard heard the noise and rushed over to see what was happening. When they saw Su's mother sitting on the ground howling and Hansen standing silently by the side, they knew that something good was going to happen.

Seeing so many people coming, Han's mother became even more excited. "Look, this bastard Han Sen is forcing us to give him money to marry him off. How can it be that easy for us to save a little money after working so hard all our lives?"

The people outside the door rolled their eyes when they heard this: "Is it easy for you to save some money?" Of course it is easy. Han Sen sends a lot of money home every month. Otherwise, how can you eat meat and flour every day? If they were to say, the Han family is supported by Han Sen, and it is all Han Sen's credit that they can save money.

What a pity that such a good kid like Han Sen is not blessed with a pair of good parents!

Villager A couldn't stand it anymore and shouted at Han's mother, "We all know that your family's money was sent back by Han Sen. I guess he has enough money left over to marry seven or eight wives. I advise you to be more generous and find a wife for your third son first so that he can have someone who cares about him and take care of him."

Mother Su was furious when she heard this. She stood up quickly and walked over to close the door. Before closing the door, she spat at him and said, "Mind your own business. Even if I have money, I will use it for my two sons, my eldest and second son..."

"Old woman, shut up! What are you talking about?" Han's father yelled at Han's mother to stop talking nonsense. Han's mother quickly covered her mouth. The people outside the door were also confused. What biological son? Aren't all his three sons biological sons? Which old man in the village hasn't seen Han's mother every time she is pregnant!

It can be seen that the Han family's parents are so partial to each other that they even reach the armpit!

But a hint of sharpness and pain flashed in Han Sen's eyes. Was this the reason why they were biased?

"Third brother, don't blame your mother. She's just old and confused and can't speak." Father Han came over and grabbed Mother Han, pinched her arm with his hand, and told her to shut up and stop talking. "If our family had money, they would definitely find you a wife, but what your mother said is true. Our family really has no money."

Han Sen looked at Han's father with dark eyes. He stood under the glaring and hot sunlight, exuding a hint of indifference and saying nothing.

"For so many years, the family has been eating, drinking and wearing clothes. Your elder brother and second brother married and had children. Your mother and I are not in good health. We have spent almost all our money on big and small things. So we are really out of money," Han's father continued to play the victim. "Your marriage is a big deal. How can we, as your parents, not take it seriously? In fact, we were already thinking about it when you just came back."

Father Han took a puff from his pipe and said, "Your shoulder is injured, so you can't continue to serve in the army. We heard that there is a retirement allowance, right?"

After hearing this, Han Sen was like, “Oh, this is actually mentioned.” Should he be sad or congratulate himself for his brilliant plan?

"Tell the army that you want to retire and ask them to send back the retirement pay. No matter how much money you have, your parents won't want it. You can stay and get married. But if it's not enough, you'll have to figure it out on your own. Eat as much as you can. We're old now and we can't help you. Alas, I'm so ashamed!"

The people lying on the wall watching the excitement were surprised to see Han's father pretending to be sad. The actors couldn't match Han's father's acting skills, right? If they were not neighbors and knew each other well, they might believe that Han's father had no money to help Han Sen now!

"Dad," Han Sen said, "My retirement pay is not much. I guess it's less than 200 yuan. But it's not enough to buy the three big things, not to mention the engagement gifts and wedding banquets. These all require money. I can't get married without money!"

"And the two elders won't help me with the house? I can't marry her and live with me in a straw hut, right? No girl should be treated like this!" Han Sen continued to express his helplessness with a sad tone.

"Third brother, Dad has made it very clear. Your shoulder is broken and your ears are deaf. You can do whatever you want to get a wife, but you have to figure it out yourself!" Han Mu glanced at Han Sen and said casually.

"But my shoulder is already like this, how can I find a solution? Besides, I sent money home before..." Han Sen said with difficulty, pretending to be bitter.

"That's your own problem. Why are you making things difficult for your parents?" Han Lin stepped forward and pushed him. Han Sen's chassis was originally very stable, but in order to cooperate with Han Lin, he staggered back two steps, holding his injured shoulder with his hand.

"I'll apply for discharge first!" Han Sen looked at the family in front of him, all of whom were staring at him, afraid that he would continue to ask for money. He was silent for a while and said that he would apply for discharge first. Then he walked back to the hut with a lonely and angry look.

The Han family breathed a sigh of relief, and the people on the wall took a deep breath.

The Han family's parents relied on Han Sen to arrange the marriage of Han Mu and Han Lin, and even built a big tiled house for them so that they could eat and drink well. Now, when it's time for Han Sen to get married, they want him to figure it out on his own?

Even Zhou Baopi from the old society would have to admit defeat when seeing Han’s parents!

This is not how you treat your own son, this is simply how you treat your enemy. Some villagers thought of what Han's mother had not finished saying before and began to think carefully.

Han Sen returned to the house with a smile on his face, which contained sarcasm, sadness, and relief!

He knew that his parents disliked him, but he didn't expect that they hated him so much!

No matter how poor a family is in the village, parents would try their best to bring a wife home for their son. His elder brothers' weddings were also held in grand occasions, but when it was his turn, he had to rely on himself, and the family was unwilling to spend any of the money he sent back on him.

Fortunately, he did not have any illusions about his parents from the beginning. Everything that happened today made him more determined to leave the Han family.

As for the money that was sent back before, if he doesn’t want to use it, then just don’t use it. As children, we should just consider it as being filial to them and providing for their retirement.

He raised his hand and touched his shoulder, and he felt much more at ease. He had Su Yunyun now, and he was not alone.

And Su Yunyun did not lie to him. The ointment she gave him was really effective. Just in this morning, the pain in his shoulder was relieved a lot.

He took off his clothes, revealing his muscular chest, which was solid and broad, and his bronze skin exuded warmth, but it gave people a sense of security and at the same time made people feel distressed, because the gauze wrapped around his shoulders had a hint of medicine on it, making people want to touch and comfort him.

He slowly untied the gauze. Some of the gauze mixed with the medicine was stuck to the skin. He felt pain when it was separated from the skin, but Han Sen had a blank expression on his face, as if he was not the one in pain.

After the gauze was completely removed, Han Sen's eyes lit up with surprise. The ointment was very effective. The originally red, swollen and inflamed wound now looked less scary, and the redness and swelling had subsided a little. The festering wound that originally needed to be cleaned every day now no longer seemed to need cleaning!

His shoulder injury will really be cured by Su Yunyun!

He can continue to return to the army he loves!

He can provide Su Yunyun with a better life!

Han Sen looked into the distance. He had to speed up a bit!

When it was time to work in the afternoon, Su Ping was supervising the progress of everyone's work in the threshing ground. He saw someone driving a yellow ox pulling a stone mill to go around in circles on a thick pile of wheat. Behind him, people were using forks to pick up the wheat below to facilitate the next round of crushing. After the crushing was done, someone would use a fork to pick away the threshed wheat straw on top. The remaining wheat grains were mixed with wheat bran, wheat awns, wheat straw, and dust. Then another group of people came and swept the wheat grains on the ground together with the debris and dust inside into a pile, and transported them to the threshing ground not far away.

Everyone works together and the efficiency is very high.

Not far away, the person in charge of winnowing wears a straw hat and covers his mouth and nose with a towel or cloth, which is tied behind his ears to prevent it from falling off during activities. This is done to prevent the inhalation of dust, wheat bran and other debris when breathing. But even with such strict protection, people occasionally inhale dust and cough continuously without paying attention. When they finish work, their mouth and nose are also very dirty, especially under the nostrils, which is covered with thick dust. There are also circles of black mud on the neck due to the sweat mixed with dust.

I saw the winnower holding a wooden shovel, standing upwind facing the direction of the wind, and throwing the wheat grains mixed with dust, wheat bran and other debris into the air. The dust, wheat bran and other debris were blown away by the wind, and the wheat grains fell directly. Then the winnower used a large broom to sweep out some large debris from the wheat grains that fell on the ground. After all, some debris was too large to be blown away by the wind. This operation was repeated until all the debris in the wheat grains was removed and then packed into bags for drying.

If a person who is not proficient in winnowing skills goes to winnow, he will suffer a lot, because he cannot accurately judge the direction of the wind. Dust, wheat bran and other debris will fly directly into his face when winnowing, making him cough loudly in the flying dust. People who cooperate with him in winnowing will also suffer the same torture.

Li Wenxuan and Wang Danju are such a group of people. Li Wenxuan is responsible for winnowing, and Wang Danju is responsible for cooperating with him. Then they shovel out the clean wheat and gather it into a pile for bagging. Because of their improper operation, it looks like they are watching two natives at work when viewed from a distance.

"Brother Wenxuan, you have to watch and learn from others. They are so good at dust control. There is no dust everywhere. Cough cough cough." Wang Danju did not prepare any towel or cloth. She faced the oncoming dust with a bare face, because she only had towels, and only two of them, one for washing her face and one for wiping her feet. She was reluctant to use them at work. In her opinion, it was a waste.

"Uh... cough cough cough." Li Wenxuan opened his mouth and inhaled a mouthful of dust, then started coughing. He also didn't have a towel or cloth around him, and he didn't have any extra ones to use, so in the eyes of the villagers these two days they were just weirdos and fools.

"I've tried my best. Don't talk. You will affect my judgment of the direction of the wind." Li Wenxuan blamed Wang Danju for talking and affecting his work.

Wang Danju lowered her head upon hearing this, and cursed in a low voice while holding back her temper, but when she raised her head, her face was full of tenderness: "Okay, Brother Wenxuan."

Su Ping came over and saw this scene. He felt disgusted. It was these two wicked people who caused his younger sister to fall into the river and be rescued by Han Sen, which made his younger sister notice Han Sen.

These two people are the culprits!

"Can you two stop dithering? Look at how much wheat others have threshed out. How much do you have?" Su Ping pointed at the two half-full bags next to them, and then pointed at the people threshing next to them who already had five or six full bags. He felt that these two people were not good at anything, but they were definitely the best at harming others.

Li Wenxuan and Wang Danju couldn't help blushing when they saw the difference between the two parties, but their faces were covered with dust and the redness could not be seen, which made Su Ping think that these two people were lazy and didn't want to work. He decided to arrange for them to clean the pigsty after the wheat harvest.

Well, we need to ask them to submit the inspections that were requested earlier as soon as possible. It has been delayed for so long.

"You need to speed up, and don't delay the inspection because of the wheat harvest. I will give you two more days at most, and then you have to hand in the inspection to me." Su Ping left after leaving these words.

But the two people who stayed there felt as if they had been hit hard. Winnowing was tiring enough. Every day they went home and forced themselves to wash clothes and take a shower, then fell asleep. The next day they had to get up with difficulty and drag their legs that felt like they were filled with lead to go to work. It had only been a few days, and the two of them looked like dehydrated vegetables, wilted and their faces looked several years older due to sunburn and peeling.

But even in this situation, they still have to write a self-criticism. Originally, the two of them thought they could delay the submission of the self-criticism and then shirk their responsibility by saying that the wheat harvest was the only reason. But now the team leader has mentioned that it must be submitted in two days. What should they do?

The two people were in despair.

But the two desperate people had to continue working with wooden shovels!
