After all the trouble, Sister-in-law Cao Xiucha finally retired.

Of course, Su Nianxi still understands the basic etiquette of social relations and reciprocity.

"Sister Cao, this is what I brought from Beijing."

During the nearly one and a half hours of spending time with Sister-in-law Cao Xiuchai, Su Nianxi learned that Sister-in-law Cao Xiuchai had a seven-year-old daughter.

So, when Sister-in-law Cao Xiucha was about to go back, Su Nianxi entered the bedroom and "whoosh" took out a large bag of White Rabbit milk candies, which were a symbol of the era, from the space. She cleverly tore off the outer packaging and put the mouth-watering White Rabbit milk candies into a small bag. She then stuffed it into Sister-in-law Cao Xiuchai's bag and gave it to her to take back to her daughter Pang Ya.

Well, Su Nianxi's act of forcing candy on Sister-in-law Cao Xiuchai made Sister-in-law Cao Xiuchai very happy.

The enthusiastic sister-in-law Cao Xiucha was not only happy because she got a big bag of tempting White Rabbit milk candy.

She was more happy and glad that Deputy Captain Lu Chenting could marry such a "black ball" wife.

"Tsk, the way this 'Black Ball' girl behaves is really beyond my expectations."

"Why is it that the rumor about Deputy Commander Lu's wife in the army and the family compound is so different from the one I met today?"

"Rumor has it that Deputy Captain Lu's wife is an illiterate country bumpkin?"

"Isn't he fat and chubby, with dark skin and hideous appearance? And, besides, he's just as lazy as the pigs waiting to be slaughtered in the army's pigpen?"

"But today I saw that Deputy Captain Lu's wife, apart from being dark-skinned, was nothing like the rumors said!"

On the way back, Cao Xiuchai's sister-in-law was muttering in her heart:

It's no wonder that after half an afternoon of contact, the sharp-eyed Mrs. Cao discovered that Su Nianxi's facial features were very regular.

Halfway through the journey, Cao Xiuchai's sister-in-law, holding the White Rabbit milk candy tightly in her arms, continued to mutter.

"Fu, just thinking about Sister Xi's eyes, tsk tsk tsk——"

"It's so tempting!"

"Her eyes are gentle and soft, her smile is sweet and sticky, and her voice is even more enchanting. If it weren't for her dark skin, she would definitely be prettier than the mainstay of the art troupe."

Well, at first glance, Su Nianxi's eyes are like the bright stars in the night sky, emitting endless youthful and energetic light, deep and bright, like a clear spring, full of water, so exquisite that it is rare and intoxicating.

Not only that, her deep and bright eyes seemed to conceal a silky, smooth, and infinitely alluring magical charm that made people fall for her.

Therefore, Su Nianxi, with her jaw-dropping coal-honeycomb complexion, was able to attract the attention of her fellow female sister-in-law Cao Xiuchai with her devilish and exquisite eyes in the afternoon, making her feel extremely itchy.

"Hey, it's just the way Nianxi speaks to others. How can she be like an illiterate country bumpkin?"

"The city folks are quite generous; they are open-minded and unpretentious."

"Oh, and her pretty straight nose, wow—"

"..."

"Oh my God—"

"Who is that stinky mouth who spreads the rumor that Sister Nianxi is lazy? This rumor is so... "

"A good girl, but her reputation has been ruined..."

"How can you be so lazy as to learn how to make a fire?"

"..."

Walking on the snow, panting as she returned home, Cao Xiuchai's sister-in-law kept mumbling and grumbling all the way...

***

As soon as Sister-in-law Cao Xiucha left, Su Nianxi, who had been working like an ox or a horse for a long time, was really tired.

She was such a delicate girl that she wilted like a deflated balloon.

"Squeak-"

"pat-"

She was drooping, all in black. Suddenly, with the might of a tiger, she slammed the front door shut and locked it.

"Squeak-"

"pat-"

After closing the front door, Su Baozi quickly closed the back door with his dark hands and locked it.

"Well--"

"Space, my sister is here——"

"Natural hot spring pool, the treasure is here!!!"

Well, Su Nianxi, after closing the door, he quickly went to find some space.

……

The next day, around 1:30 p.m.

"Knock Knock Knock-"

"Knock Knock Knock-"

"..."

"sister in law--"

"Sister-in-law, I'm Shen Xiaoqi, and I'm here to bring you some matches."

"Knock Knock Knock-"

"sister in law--"

"..."

Comrade Shen Xiaoqi, who delivered the matches, came to the family compound, but he called for a long time and still didn't see Sister-in-law Su Nianxi respond to him.

"what--"

"Sister-in-law, what's this? Didn't you hear???"

"My voice isn't small, is it?"

"Oh, sister-in-law is taking a nap at this time? So she didn't hear it?"

"Well, it must be like this—"

The lovely orderly Shen Xiaoqi, who knows how to nourish his brain, started to have fun——

Suddenly, Shen Buqi looked around and saw that there was no one around. He cleverly placed a small bag of ten boxes of matches on the corner of the door threshold, and took out the paper and pen he carried with him from his clothes pocket, wrote a note, and then carefully stuffed it into the crack of the door.

"alright--"

"This way, my sister-in-law should be able to see it when she wakes up from her nap."

Comrade Shen Xiaoqi muttered as he put away his pen and paper. Then, he turned around and left the front yard, carefully closed the fence, and strode towards the troops.

……

The dusk is vast.

"Hey! Why is there such a big wooden barrel in this bathroom?"

"For bathing?"

"Lu Chenting is a gay man, but he's so health-conscious and has the habit of taking a bath?"

“But this is the 70s—”

"No, no, no, he shouldn't be that effeminate. He looks quite manly, quite masculine. No, no."

Su Nianxi's eyebrows turned into a caterpillar, she shivered, and shook her head with a look of resistance.

"Hey, could it be that this is prepared for me?"

"Yo--"

"Sure, I didn't expect this guy, such a warm guy, to be picked up by me——"

Thinking that all the furnishings in this small home in the family compound were arranged by Lu Chenting alone, Su Nianxi's lips, as soft as rose petals, couldn't help but curl up slightly, and a sweet smile appeared at the corners of her mouth.

Suddenly, Su Nianxi had an idea and skillfully set up the firewood, starting her real earthen stove life.

"Well, sooner or later you have to integrate with this era and get used to the life here—"

"Sister, I'll start from this moment!"

She was so obsessed that she boiled pot after pot of water as if she was going to prepare a New Year pig. She carried bucket after bucket of water to the bathroom and poured them into the wooden barrel with a clanging sound.
