Framed at the beginning: Female educated youth forced to marry disabled military officer
Chapter 197 Who are you insulting?
Mrs. Wu sprained her foot. Although no bones were injured, it would take ten and a half days to recover.
When she heard that she had to rest for such a long time, Mrs. Wu quickly said no. She had been criticized for taking a day off for her leg injury two days ago. If she rested for half a month, she would never want to stay in the city again to clean toilets. It was not her turn and she had to be transferred to the farm.
"But you can't work like this." Meng Xiaoman advised, "How about I go and help you."
"No, no, I can't let you down." Old Mrs. Wu wiped away the tears from her eyes with her handkerchief. "If I didn't want to protect this home for them, I would have died long ago."
"Then let me take two days off for you first, and then I can work again after my feet feel better." Xiao Xiangdong said. He went without waiting for the old man to refuse.
Xiao Xiangdong went to the responsible department and first revealed his identity. When the other party heard that he was studying at the most famous military academy in Hai City, his attitude immediately became respectful and he readily agreed to Mrs. Wu's sick leave and approved half of it with a wave of his hand. moon.
"What about cleaning the public toilets?"
"Oh, I'll arrange for someone else to take over right away. This kind of dirty and tiring work shouldn't be done by someone so old."
"No, no, no, according to your rules, there is no need to arrange easy work for her." Xiao Xiangdong said that he helped to ask for leave, but he did not want to interfere with other people's work arrangements.
But the person in charge felt that he was hinting, so he cooperated on the surface and said, "Okay, okay." But he secretly decided that when Mrs. Wu gets better, she must arrange a relaxing job for her.
After solving the problem of asking for leave, the two bought some food, plaster and safflower oil, and sent them to Mrs. Wu's house. He told her that he was taking half a month off so that she could rest in peace and recuperate.
Mrs. Wu was stunned for a moment and couldn't believe it. Then she came to her senses and solemnly thanked her. Holding the bed, he walked to the wooden box at the end of the bed and took out a jade pendant from the inside. "I have nothing to thank you for. Just take this jade pendant."
Meng Xiaoman didn't answer, "These are just a piece of cake. They are not worth such precious things. You can keep them with you."
"Yes, we will help anyone we meet. We are not doing it for money." Xiao Xiangdong said that in this chaos, extending a hand to those in need is to live up to his conscience.
Mrs. Wu carefully stroked the jade pendant, as if looking at something else through it, "It's not actually a very precious thing, but it was carved by my wife himself and given to me as a token of love. When searching the house, don't Everything was searched and I only kept this jade pendant.”
"In this case, we can't ask for it anymore." Meng Xiaoman said that things with special meaning are more precious.
"I really want to give it to you. I can see that the relationship between you and your husband is very good. It is better to give this jade pendant to you than to have it taken away by others in the future. I think my wife is underground. If he knows about this jade pendant, If the pendant is given to a lover, he will also be happy."
Mrs. Wu wrapped the jade pendant with a handkerchief, took Meng Xiaoman's hand and put it in her palm. "This handkerchief is a token I gave him. We just happen to be together. You can keep it as a souvenir."
Looking at the old man's hopeful eyes, Meng Xiaoman clenched his hands.
Every now and then, Meng Xiaoman would visit Mrs. Wu and pick up some scented tea, dried fruits produced in the space, or a few packets of body conditioning medicine.
Whenever Mrs. Wu didn't want to accept it, Meng Xiaoman would always make excuses for the jade pendant. Mrs. Wu knew that she was doing it for her own good, so she accepted it. I just thought about how to repay her.
After learning by chance that she liked making clothes, I asked her if she wanted to learn embroidery.
Meng Xiaoman had seen the handkerchief, which was embroidered with exquisite bluegrass and was embroidered on both sides. She thought that Mrs. Wu bought the handkerchief at the embroidery shop, but she didn't expect that she had embroidered it herself.
"My mother is a famous embroiderer in Suzhou, and my father made his fortune from embroidery. I learned embroidery from my mother since I was a child, but after I got married, my husband's family was a big family and they couldn't make money from my embroidery, so I decided to It’s just a hobby to pass the time.”
As she spoke, Mrs. Wu pulled out a few yellowed books from the bottom of the box.
"My mother gave these to me and asked me to pass them on to my daughter, but my daughter doesn't like them, so she still has them with me."
Meng Xiaoman flipped through it. They were all about embroidery, in traditional Chinese characters, and all about various embroidery techniques.
"Do you want to learn? If you want to learn, I can teach you so that my mother's skills can be passed down."
Of course, Meng Xiaoman couldn't ask for it. In her previous life, she made custom clothing. Embroidery was a very important part of mid-to-high-end clothing customization. She even consulted embroidery craftsmen for this purpose.
Meng Xiaoman went to several places to buy all the needles, threads, base fabrics and embroidery frames needed for embroidery, and then started learning from Mrs. Wu.
By the way, while Meng Xiaoman was indulging in her embroidery skills, Qian Wei and Wang Meiling had already arrived at the Qinghe Brigade.
Trains, cars, donkey carts, all in a hurry, Wang Meiling vomited several times, and her well-maintained face suddenly collapsed a lot. Qian Wei was also upset and looked very ugly.
As soon as they arrived in the village, the two went straight to the brigade headquarters. However, everyone was working in the fields at this time, and the two found the fields along the way.
"What? Meng Xiaoman?" Party Secretary Zhou Baoguo looked at the anxious look of these two people, and it didn't look like they were up to something good. Moreover, Meng Xiaoman had been with the army for almost a year, and they didn't know about it, which showed that their relationship was not that close.
Zhou Baoguo suddenly became alert. "Why are you looking for her? She is no longer in our team."
"Not in your brigade? What do you mean, didn't she come here to go to the countryside?" Wang Meiling asked.
Zhou Baoguo gave her a disgusted look. This woman came to the countryside and was wearing a pair of leather shoes with heels. She just stepped on several of her crops. "Can't you leave after you go to the countryside? If you say you won't be here, you won't be here. Just get off the road and don't disturb me from my work!"
As she spoke, she picked up the hoe and started weeding. When Wang Meiling saw that the hoe almost fell on her head, she was so frightened that she quickly took two steps back and sat down on the ground.
Seeing that she had killed several seedlings again, Zhou Baoguo became even more angry. He picked up her arm and pushed her onto the field ridge.
"Don't touch me, you bastard, you're so dirty, you old gangster." Wang Meiling scolded her while struggling.
Seeing Zhou Baoguo's face getting darker and darker, Qian Wei glared at Wang Meiling and told her to shut up. He quickly stepped forward and spoke in a lowered posture.
"We are her parents. We have something urgent to do with her. Could you please help us?" Qian Wei said, taking out a pack of large cigarettes from his bag, taking one out and handing it to Zhou Baoguo, "Here, you smoke."
Zhou Baoguo glanced at the cigarette in his hand and showed a hint of disdain. When Xiao Xiangdong left, he gave him a pack of Peony cigarettes! This is just a big front door, so give him one. Who are you insulting? He is not a person who has never seen the world.
"No need." Zhou Baoguo pushed his hand away, "We country people can't get used to the cigarettes you city people smoke."
Qian Wei thought he had never seen it before and said hurriedly: "You're welcome, it's very good to smoke. You can try it. This is the front door. It's a very good cigarette."
Zhou Baoguo thinks there is something wrong with this man's brain. Can't you tell that he dislikes him? In addition, when asking for help, you don’t know how to tell your home address first, and then ask where the person is when you come up. These city people are really ignorant.
