Marry an officer at the beginning, wear a book girl and play songs every day

"Sister-in-law Juxiang, do you want to go to the kitchen with me to warm yourself by the fire?"

"There are too many people in this living room, and there are men smoking. I think you don't feel comfortable."

Song Ranran looked at the pale Hu Juxiang, covering her nose and asking with a smile.

Hu Juxiang nodded when she heard this, and her eyes lit up.

She didn't want to be watched by those people, even if the Song Ranran in front of her had just insulted her mother-in-law.

She didn't want to stay with Li Guihua and let her disgrace her mother-in-law.

Song Ranran said hello to Lin Mengyun and brought Hu Juxiang to the kitchen.

There are two coal stoves in the kitchen, which are kept burning 24 hours a day.

There is a large aluminum pot on top of the coal stove, which is filled with hot water. It is very warm to sit next to.

"Sister-in-law Hu, sit here. You're too tired to sit outside. I just pulled you over to have a rest. You don't mind, right?"

Song Ranran handed a low stool to Hu Juxiang and sat next to her.

Being a mascot was tiring, and Song Ranran felt that her cheeks were starting to get sore after laughing for so long.

"I can't speak, and I don't like crowded places."

"Now that I'm pregnant and I still can't smell the strange smell, I want to thank you for rescuing me."

Her mother-in-law, Li Guihua, never brushed her teeth. When talking to her, Hu Juxiang had a hard time holding back her vomiting.

"Why do you smell like flowers? The fragrance is light and refreshing."

Fortunately, Song Ranran's body smelled faintly of flowers, and she felt much more comfortable now.

“In spring or summer, you can dry your favorite flower bones and make them into sachets, and hang them in your wardrobe. Over time, the fragrance will remain on your clothes.”

Of course, Song Ranran's clothes not only function as sachets, but also as fragrance beads.

A few hours later, the guests who came to pay New Year greetings all went home one after another.

Lin Mengyun was elated. She looked at Song Ranran lovingly and kept praising her.

Gu Beicheng paid attention to Song Ranran all the time, so he naturally knew why Lin Mengyun was happy.

Today, not only was she dressed more decently than Li Guihua, she was also the eldest daughter-in-law who took the initiative to honor her.

Song Ranran behaved gracefully and generously, and gave her face in every aspect.

He immediately noticed her displeasure with Li Guihua and took the initiative to stamp out Li Guihua's arrogance.

Today, Li Guihua was making fun of her all morning.

Li Guihua's eldest daughter-in-law was called to the kitchen by Song Ranran again. She couldn't leave even if she wanted to.

Lin Mengyun thought about Li Guihua's aggrieved expression today, and she could eat an extra bowl of rice.

After noon, Gu Beicheng took Song Ranran to Chen Guodong's house and picked up the supplies she had purchased before and the remaining cash.

Then he took her to Xinhua Bookstore and bought a lot of books and study materials.

There is no high school on the island, let alone study materials for the college entrance examination.

Students on the island have to go out of the island to go to high school. Now they can't go to college. It would be great if they can go to junior high school. Very few students go out to go to high school.

"Daughter-in-law, we will set off tomorrow morning, two days earlier than expected. We have to pick up two children on the way, the grandson of the chief ***'s family. I have already collected the living expenses and will give them all to you."

"His eldest son was reported by his brother-in-law to have jumped off a building, and his eldest daughter-in-law also died in love."

"Other relatives are afraid to adopt the two children. Food is rationed. The two children have moved through five families in the past two years."

"The train ticket to Yinhai City was bought temporarily. I only bought a hard seat. I will have to work hard for you then."

Gu Beicheng handed two wads of cash to Song Ranran. They were all cash without receipts.

Gu Beicheng is not short of money, but if he doesn't accept the money, others won't rest assured.

Gu Beicheng had already bought the train ticket and decided on the time before he explained it to Song Ranran.

"How old is the child? I have no experience raising children."

Song Ranran nestled in Gu Beicheng's arms. His embrace made her feel safe and reliable.

She got married as soon as she crossed over and followed Gu Beicheng to the island.

Song Ranran had never faced the struggles of this era directly, so suddenly hearing such a tragic thing was like reading a book, separated by a second wall.

"The twins should be over eight years old this year."

The half-grown boy eats the poor old man, and both children are in the stage of growing.

The longest family only adopted them for more than half a year.

"That's okay, but when they live with us in the future, I can't use the washing machine to wash clothes during holidays, and I can't cook rice in a rice cooker at ordinary times. The texture is completely different from rice cooked in an iron pot."

There are also various dry goods collected. The dry goods delivered by the black-faced uncle’s family increase every month.

Song Ranran planned to ask the black-faced uncle to help rent a small farmyard to store it after returning to the island.

The villagers in Linhai have been getting better and better in the past two years, and they have all built new buildings.

There are many vacant yards, which can be easily rented, and the transaction can be more concealed.

"Daughter-in-law, you should use this space as little as possible."

"An eight-year-old child can already cook and wash clothes. Don't underestimate children. They are smarter than we think and can see clues from details."

The child's father was a university professor, and he jumped off the building the first time his brother-in-law threw dirty water on him.

The child's mother was a waiter at a supply and marketing cooperative. The two fell in love at first sight and got married. The day after they found out that their husband was forced to death by his younger brother, he also died in love.

These two children, whose father and mother died within two days, must have matured earlier than ordinary children.

The chief was only under temporary supervision, otherwise the two children would not have been living in so many homes.

When they returned to Yanjing, the couple brought two full boxes and a large backpack.

When they returned to the island, Lin Mengyun packed six boxes full of things for them, as well as a backpack.

There are two boxes filled with books, and four boxes filled with food.

Most of them are gifts from subordinates or relatives of Gu's father and Lin Mengyun who came to pay New Year's greetings.

Malted milk, various canned meats, and various biscuits in tin cans.

If it weren't for the fact that the box couldn't fit in enough, Lin Mengyun would have wanted to bring all the good things at home to them.

Seeing this made Luo Xiaohua feel sour and wished she could keep them all for herself.

She also didn't want to think about how many gifts Song Ranran brought home to her parents.

Luo Xiaohua, Gu Beifang, and their two children filled their backpacks with just a change of clothes.

I went home empty-handed and didn’t take anything with me. During the New Year days, I didn’t spend a penny at home.

Now that Song Ranran and Gu Beicheng are gone, Gu's father and Lin Mengyun have to go to work too.

Luo Xiaohua cannot eat ready-made meals and has to spend money to buy vegetables from the supply and marketing cooperative and cook them at home.

For Luo Xiaohua, who is like a miser and spends money to buy groceries every day, her heartache will bleed.

In rural areas, there is private land, and there is no need to spend money on food.

Luo Xiaohua couldn't find any friends to chat with in Yanjing, so she kept urging Gu Beifang to return to the countryside.
