After four years of marriage, the military officer husband came back
Chapter 16: What are your plans for Qing Ning?
In the evening, Lu Baichuan came back from a business trip. He was very happy to see his son whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
After dinner, everyone left the table. Lu Jingzhe went back to the room to get the wine he brought back for Lu Baichuan. As soon as he left, He Shanshan immediately pushed the dishes in front of Xia Qingning and told her to wash them quickly.
Xia Qingning was sick and not at home these two days, so He Shanshan was the one doing the dishes. Now that Xia Qingning is back, she naturally won't wash the dishes anymore.
Xia Qingning knew that these jobs had always been done by the original body, and He Shanshan had long been accustomed to ordering the original body around and pushed all the work to her.
But now she is not her original self, and it will be impossible for her to be ordered around by them in the future.
"What are you still standing there for? Go wash up." Seeing that she didn't move, He Shanshan began to urge her, and even reminded her deliberately:
"Oh, don't forget to wash my dishes separately."
Xia Qingning looked over and found that there was a beautiful small white porcelain bowl in front of He Shanshan. It was completely different from the rough bowls used by others, which were printed with the word "happiness" and mandarin duck patterns.
Didn't she ask me to wash it myself? Okay, I'll help her wash it right away.
Xia Qingning raised a barely perceptible smile at the corner of her lips. She stood up seemingly obediently and began to clean up the dishes. When she picked up the bowl in front of He Shanshan, her hand suddenly slipped and the bowl fell to the ground.
With a loud "clang", the two bowls smashed together. The mandarin duck bowl with the word "happiness" on it was not damaged at all, but He Shanshan's small white porcelain bowl broke into several pieces.
"Ah, my bowl!" He Shanshan saw her beloved bowl was broken, and her anger instantly jumped up. She immediately stood up and yelled at Xia Qingning:
"Xia Qingning, is your arm broken? You can't even hold a bowl!"
Just as Xia Qingning was about to speak, she saw Lu Jingzhe walking out of the room. She suddenly raised her hand to support her forehead, and her body shook twice, as if she was about to fall down in the next second.
Seeing Xia Qingning staggering, Lu Jingzhe immediately stepped forward and supported her.
"What's going on?" Lu Jingzhe asked.
"It's okay, I just felt a little dizzy, and I lost my grip on the bowl, and dropped it." Xia Qingning said, standing up straight and holding her head.
At this time, Wang Mingfang heard the sound and walked out of the room. Seeing Lu Jingzhe supporting Xia Qingning, she immediately said with concern:
"Oh, what's going on?"
Lu Jingzhe ignored her and looked at Xia Qingning. Seeing that her face did not look good, he said in a calm voice:
"If you feel dizzy, go back to your room and rest."
"But..." Xia Qingning said with a troubled look on her face, "The dishes haven't been washed yet."
Lu Jingzhe frowned and then said:
"Is there no one else in the room? You have to wash this bowl."
Xia Qingning still looked embarrassed, and said casually:
"But I used to do all the housework, such as cooking, washing dishes, and laundry."
Isn't this obviously a "complaint"? Wang Mingfang, who was standing by, looked embarrassed and immediately said:
"Hey Qing Ning, we all live under the same roof, how can the housework be divided so clearly? Isn't it just whoever is free to do it?"
"Oh, so it turns out that Auntie and Shanshan have been busy these years, and I am the only one who is free." Xia Qingning's voice was soft, and she didn't sound like she was accusing anyone at all. It seemed that she was just stating the facts. After that, she said obediently:
"Then I'll go wash it."
"Leave it there!" Lu Jingzhe raised his voice, his cold eyes swept across Wang Mingfang and He Shanshan, and said in a cold voice:
"If no one is washing it, I'll come and wash it later."
Upon hearing this, Wang Mingfang immediately put on a smile and said to Lu Jingzhe flatteringly:
"What are you talking about? How can I let you wash it?" After saying that, he turned his head and looked at He Shanshan:
"Shanshan, how can you be so tactless? Go wash the dishes."
He Shanshan looked at the "weak" Xia Qingning and her face twisted with anger. In the past, no matter she was sick or injured, as long as she could breathe, she would do these things. Why can't she do it now that Lu Jingzhe is back?
"Then I'll trouble you, Shanshan." Xia Qingning smiled apologetically at the right time, and pretended to apologize, "I just accidentally broke your bowl. I'm sorry."
It was obvious that she wanted to make things more difficult for He Shanshan. He Shanshan's face turned blue and she was about to lose her temper but was stopped by Wang Mingfang.
"Oh, it's just a bowl, just buy another one." Wang Mingfang said generously.
"Then I'll go back to my room and rest." Under He Shanshan's resentful gaze, Xia Qingning turned around gracefully and went back to her room.
Lu Jingzhe didn't say anything else and went to Lu Baichuan's room with the wine.
"She's just pretending. She's just pretending." He Shanshan's breath was stuck in her throat. She waited until Lu Jingzhe left before she dared to yell at Wang Mingfang.
How could the shrewd Wang Mingfang not see that Xia Qingning was pretending to be unconscious, but as long as Lu Jingzhe believed it, it was true.
Why didn't she realize before that Xia Qingning was so good at pretending and talking? Hadn't she always been stupid and gullible? Could it be that she took some magic medicine and suddenly her brain became smarter?
"Also, Lu Jingzhe bought her two cans of malted milk today. I wanted to drink some, but he refused to give it to me and asked her to take it all back home." He Shanshan felt wronged when she thought of this and continued:
"She broke my bowl on purpose. Ever since Lu Jingzhe came back, she's been so arrogant that she not only disobeyed me, but also went against me!"
Looking at her aggrieved daughter, Wang Mingfang patted her on the back and comforted her:
"Mom knows you've been wronged. Don't worry, Lu Jingzhe won't be able to stay at home for long. Just bear with it for now. When he returns to the army, we'll take care of him."
Although He Shanshan was extremely unwilling, she had no choice but to wash the dishes obediently. Looking at her beloved white porcelain bowl broken by Xia Qingning, a trace of hatred flashed in her eyes, and she thought to herself: Let's see how she can still show off after Lu Jingzhe leaves.
Xia Qingning, who was in the corner, heard every word of the conversation between the mother and daughter. Humph! They still want to deal with me. Xia Qingning's lips curled up slightly. Let's see who will deal with whom.

Lu Jingzhe entered Lu Baichuan's room carrying a bottle of wine. He put the wine on the table and said to Lu Baichuan:
"Dad, I brought you a bottle of wine."
Lu Baichuan looked at his son and said, "You haven't been back for four years, and you want to send your father away with a bottle of wine." He picked up the wine and looked at it, smiling in surprise, and said with satisfaction:
"Oh, China Moutai, this wine is good, this wine is good.
Lu Baichuan has a cheerful and open-minded personality. He was wronged in the movement and suffered a lot, but he never felt sorry for himself or gave up on himself.
Later, he was rehabilitated and resumed his job, and he worked diligently without any complaints.
His life had many ups and downs, but he never experienced extreme joy or sorrow and was always peaceful.
At the same time, he is a man who values feelings and promises, otherwise he would not have brought the original body to the city.
"I knew you liked it." Lu Jingzhe said that he always felt relaxed in front of his father. The two of them were more like friends than father and son.
"Have you been in good health in recent years?" Lu Jingzhe asked with concern.
"It's okay, it's okay, I can eat and sleep well." Lu Baichuan said with a smile, and then asked:
"Where are your two uncles? I don't think the injuries they sustained on the battlefield left any sequelae."
"Generally speaking, it's fine. Only my second uncle's legs hurt occasionally on rainy days." Lu Jingzhe replied in a deep voice.
Lu Baichuan sighed lightly: "It's inevitable that the steel plate hits the bone." Then he continued to ask:
"How long will you stay back this time?"
"One month." Lu Jingzhe replied.
"That's good." Lu Baichuan nodded repeatedly. After a moment, he looked at Lu Jingzhe and asked:
"What are your plans for Qing Ning?"
