Become a burden in a period novel

Chapter 40 Military Family

Later, when her son grew up and wanted to join the army, she agreed.

After her son left, she felt lonely living alone at home. She was a military family member and a family member of a martyr, so no one dared to mess with her.

When the team leader found her and asked her to sign up, she thought it was a good idea. This way, she would have someone to live with and she would not feel lonely.

In addition, the team leader also introduced the female educated youth who came to live in her house. She was a poor child, only fifteen years old, and she must have gone to the countryside to represent her family.

Now she saw Qin Wangshu, who didn't look like she was fifteen years old at all. The kids in their team all looked fatter than her.

Their team is not particularly wealthy, and the children are not fat, but they still look stronger than the child in front of them.

She had only one son and had always envied other people's daughters. Now that a female educated youth had moved into her home, her wish to raise a daughter was satisfied.

She felt really sorry for such a skinny little girl, but she didn't know if she was willing to eat with her. If she was willing, she would make more delicious food for her, or at least feed her to make her fatter.

Qin Wangshu didn't know that Aunt Luo in front of her felt very sympathetic towards her and was still thinking about feeding her to fatten her up.

She walked beside Aunt Luo with her remaining luggage, and then went to the captain to get her rations.

Just as she thought, the rations distributed to them were mostly coarse grains, and only enough for one month. The rest had to wait until after the summer harvest.

Qin Wangshu wanted to take his rations, but Aunt Luo took them away instead.

"Aunt, I can do it myself." Qin Wangshu hurriedly wanted to take it. After all, Aunt Luo had already helped her with the luggage, so how could she ask her to help her get the rations!

"It's okay. I don't care about such a small amount of food. Let's go. I eat alone too, so you can eat with me. You can just leave the rations at my house." Aunt Luo didn't give Qin Wangshu a chance to refuse and walked towards her home with the things.

When distributing rations just now, the team leader also said that they could eat at the villagers' homes or at the educated youth camps. It was all up to them and he had no say.

After the rations were distributed, it was already very late. It was now the middle of the month and a bright moon had risen in the sky, casting a layer of silver light on the square in front of the battalion headquarters.

With the moonlight, the road is not dark.

Aunt Luo walked in front, and Qin Wangshu quickly said goodbye to the educated youth here and followed.

Dong Shaofang looked at the family Qin Wangshu was assigned to and felt a little envious.

It was just that this was assigned by the captain, so she couldn't say anything. This Aunt Luo looked like a kind person, and she was the only one in her family, so she should live in a more spacious place!

Qin Wangshu was really lucky to be able to live there alone.

At this time, the family they were assigned to also came to help Dong Shaofang and the others move their luggage and rations.

"Do you want to eat with us?" asked the lady from the family they were assigned to, but her eyes were always on the rations with a slightly frown on her face.

"No, thanks. Let's go back to the educated youth site to eat." Dong Shaofang could see that they didn't seem to want the two of them to have dinner at their house.

Hearing what she said, Zhang Nan also spoke up, "Yes, let's go back to the educated youth site to eat."

Zhang Nan took his rations, and Dong Shaofang also took his rations.

"Okay, then you can take the rations back to the educated youth site tomorrow, and then just come back and stay here every day." The old lady seemed to be relieved.

There was no way out. These educated youth were unable to work. The work points they earned were not enough to feed themselves. The food they were allocated was not much, but they ate a lot.

If the two educated youth were allowed to eat with their family, their family would probably suffer. She didn't want to feed the food her family had worked so hard to earn to these two people who only ate for free.

The one at Sister Luo’s house is better. She looks skinny and small, and I guess she can’t eat much. She probably can’t finish the rations, so there’s no need to subsidize her.

As for making money from these educated youth, they would not do that. They had thought about it before when the educated youth came.

After all, these educated youth all came from the city, and their living conditions were definitely better than theirs. But before they could do anything, they found that their own family members had fallen in love with those educated youth.

A lot of fine grains and eggs were sent to the family, but the educated youth had no intention of staying here to start a family.

After beating their own children, they just wanted to stay away from these educated youth. Moreover, with the team leader watching them, they did not dare to do anything excessive.

Of course, these educated youth also had some good things in their hands, and their hands were loose. They didn't want to offend the educated youth, and they also wanted to exchange some things they didn't have from them.

"You are wearing what looks like a real military uniform. Do you have a soldier in your family?" When Qin Wangshu caught up with Aunt Luo, he heard Aunt Luo ask.

Nowadays people like to wear green military uniforms, but many of them buy cloth and make them themselves. There is a difference between the green and the real military uniforms.

Aunt Luo’s own son was in the military camp, so she naturally knew what a military uniform looked like. Qin Wangshu’s outfit was obviously a real military uniform.

"Yes, this was given to me by my brother. He is serving as a soldier in the frontier." As for which frontier, she did not say.

"That's really a coincidence. My son is also a soldier. We are both military dependents." Aunt Luo said happily.

But since her brother gave her the military uniform, how could he let her be so thin?

Her son has been sending her an allowance since he joined the army. It was not much at first, but it was enough for her to live on. However, she could support herself, so she saved the money.

However, there was a shortage of tickets in the countryside, so all the tickets her son sent back were used by her or exchanged with others for other things.

This girl has a brother who is a soldier. Her brother doesn’t seem like the type who would completely ignore her. So how come she is so thin? Is her family very poor, or do they have too many children?

"Yes, we are all military families!" Qin Wangshu smiled, and this smile made Aunt Luo notice the good looks of this young educated youth.

The child is still young now. If she were older, those young men would probably be upset.

Although Qin Wangshu's face is not as beautiful as the current public aesthetic, beauty has no limitations.

At least Aunt Luo has never seen anyone more handsome than Qin Wangshu at her age. Thinking of this, Aunt Luo didn't want Qin Wangshu to go back to the educated youth center.

With a face like this, the educated youth center can't protect her. But it's too early to say this now. Although she liked this young educated youth when she first saw him, whether she wants to stay or not depends on her own opinion.
