Transmigrating to the 70’s: The Military Wife As A Farmer

The next morning, Han Mingxiu didn't wake up until eight o'clock.

She didn't get up by herself, but was shouted by Yingmei next door.

"Xiu, Xiu, are you up yet? Several sisters-in-law came to see you..."

Sun Yingmei was lying on the wall of her house, screaming one after another. Han Mingxiu heard this sentence in a daze, and she suddenly became energetic. She sat up, and now all the guests were at the door, and she also took care of her. There was nothing else to do, so he quickly got up and put on his clothes, folded the quilt, tucked his hair, and went down to open the door.

At this moment, Huo Jianfeng had disappeared, and it was estimated that he had gone to training. Han Mingxiu had to go out alone. After opening the door, he saw Sun Yingmei lying on the wall and calling her with her neck stretched.

Han Mingxiu hurriedly said, "Where are those sister-in-laws?"

"It's at the gate of your house, go and open the door!" Sun Yingmei said anxiously.

Hearing this, Han Mingxiu hurriedly walked a few steps to the gate, opened the gate, and there were four or five sisters-in-law standing outside the gate.

Among them, there are Li Hongmei, sister-in-law Huang, whom she knew, Sui Yingju, sister-in-law He, and Chen Qiulan, sister-in-law Hu, who she didn't know, and the annoying sister-in-law.

"Oh, I'm sorry, sisters-in-law. I just changed places. I was late last night, and I fell asleep in the middle of the night. I woke up late today, and I neglected everyone..." Han Mingxiu explained her reason for getting up late and opened the door. Open, please come in.

"It's okay, I'm not an outsider, no one can pick your reasons." Sister He walked in and held Han Mingxiu's hand affectionately, "Didn't you say that you will come home on the fourth day of the first year and come home on the fifth day? How about coming back late? I knew you were back last night, and my sister-in-law came to see you last night. "

Han Mingxiu said, "My family has so many things that I can't get over by train. Then the second brother-in-law borrowed the car from the unit and drove the car we bought back. Sister-in-law, come in."

She opened the door and let several sisters-in-law in.

"Ha, this time we have one more family member here, and it will be even more lively now." After entering the house, Mrs. Huang sat on the edge of the kang and made an opening remarks with a smile.

Sister He said, "Isn't that right? You see, it's only been a few days. Two family members came all of a sudden. They're both young daughters-in-law, and they're all very eye-catching."

"That's right, isn't the water and soil good in your place? Why are the daughters raised so handsome." A slightly dark-skinned sister-in-law said enviously.

"Cough cough..."

Several sisters-in-law were chatting enthusiastically, while sister-in-law Hu over there coughed with a stern face, with a very serious expression.

When Sister He saw it, she hurriedly said, "Oh, look at me, I was patronizing and chatting, but I forgot to introduce you. Come on, Xiu'er, I'll introduce you to me."

"These are the military sister-in-law of our battalion. This is Chen Qiulan, the sister-in-law of Hu's deputy battalion chief. You can call her sister-in-law Hu or sister-in-law Qiulan."

Han Mingxiu has known Chen Qiulan for a long time, and there have been so many unpleasantness with Chen Qiulan. Sister He knew this for a long time, but those past events were unpleasant ones. Sister He wisely chose "I don't know, I haven't heard of it", and she introduced them both like newcomers.

"Hello, Mrs. Hu!"

Since sister-in-law He introduced them as people they didn't know, Han Mingxiu simply made a mistake and pretended to be just acquaintance. .

Chen Qiulan saw Han Mingxiu greet her with a smile on her face, and her attitude was quite respectful. The expression on her face eased, and she said calmly, "You can sit too, it's tiring to stand talking."

"It's okay, thank you sister-in-law for your concern, I'm not tired, I've been lying down all night, and I just stood up to relax my muscles and bones." Han Mingxiu replied with a smile.

Han Mingxiu's posture was very low. Because she doesn't want to make enemies here. After all, her men work with their men. If she can get along well with these family members, and the rear is united, the men can work better together in the front, right?

Therefore, even if he hates this sister-in-law Hu, Han Mingxiu still tries to be friendly with her. She thought about it, as long as she didn't bully herself, she wouldn't take the initiative to make enemies with her or anyone.

Seeing that she had a good attitude, Sister-in-Law Hu ticked upwards at the corner of her mouth, and a smug smile appeared on her face.

Hmph, I finally understand things, and I know who should be flattered and who should not be offended. How good would it be if I had been so aware of current affairs? Why make so many enemies?

"This is Sister-in-law Yu, who works in our logistics department. By the way, Sister-in-law Hu works in our cafeteria, and this is Sister-in-law Zhou, who works in the hospital..."

Sister He pointed to a tall military sister-in-law with dark skin and high cheekbones to introduce to Han Mingxiu.

"Hello, sisters-in-law..." Han Mingxiu greeted obediently.

Several sisters-in-law smiled and nodded to Han Mingxiu friendly, and they all seemed to get along very well.

"And this sister-in-law Tan is a kindergarten teacher here. When you and Jianfeng have children in the future, you can send them to the kindergarten. Your sister-in-law Tan has brought the children very well. The children in our family area are basically all She brought it up." Sister He pointed to the last sister-in-law with a better temperament and small eyes.

"Hello, sister-in-law!" Han Mingxiu greeted with a smile.

Sister-in-law Tan said with a smile, "Comrade Mingxiu's temperament is really good. It doesn't look like she came from the countryside at all. I think her temperament is better than that of girls in the city."

"That's right, if I hadn't heard about it, I wouldn't have known she came from the countryside." Sister Zhou said with a smile.

Han Mingxiu lowered her head slightly, pursed her lips and smiled, "Looking at what the sisters-in-law said, they are embarrassed to praise me."

"There's nothing to be embarrassed about, it's a fact, tell me, just like Xiao Han, the art troupe can be an actor." Sister He said.

When Han Mingxiu saw that their praise was over, she said shyly (pretend), "Sisters-in-law sit down first, and I'll go grab some melon seeds for you."

"Oh, you don't have to be busy, you're not an outsider..." Sister He declined.

Han Mingxiu said: "It's not a rare good thing. I planted it in the garden myself. It's good that the sisters-in-law don't dislike it."

As he spoke, he walked out, pushed open the door of the Westinghouse, and pretended to look inside. In fact, I took out a tray from the space, filled it with some melon seeds, nested melon seeds, peanuts and pine nuts, and brought it out.

"Oh, don't you mean to take melon seeds? Why do you take out so many?" Sister-in-law Huang cried while looking at the various dried fruits in the tray.

Han Mingxiu said, "It's all country stuff. It's not worth anything. Sisters-in-law, let's try it."

Saying that, he put the tray on the kang table, and one person grabbed a lot of it.

With this plate of dried fruit, the atmosphere of chatting in the house became more harmonious. Everyone chatted while eating, and from time to time, the sound of 'kabakaba' and 'bah bah' spit out shells on the ground could be heard from time to time. the sound of.

Sister-in-law Hu may have eaten the dried fruit in a good mood. After eating for a while, she took out a handkerchief and wiped her mouth, and said in a tone of voice, "Xiao Han, Zhang He told me this morning that her daughter-in-law wants to go to the cafeteria. Come to work, you and her daughter-in-law belong to the same village."

Han Mingxiu nodded: "Yes, we have been in the same village since we were young, and I introduced them both!"

"oh, I see."

Chen Qiulan said with an 'oh' and said in a long tone, "Actually, we have no shortage of staff in the logistics department of our cafeteria, but seeing that you are all from the countryside, it's not easy, so I'll talk to the logistics minister and let him You two should go to the cafeteria to work, but the ugly words are over, if you go there and don't work hard or cheat and cheat, don't blame me for firing you..."

After speaking, she closed her mouth and sat there, waiting for Han Mingxiu to thank her.

After all, there is a salary of 8 yuan a month. If a rural girl can get such a job, what will it be like? They were probably too happy to kowtow to her.

The other sisters-in-law probably thought the same way. When they heard that Sister-in-Law Hu was willing to give Han Mingxiu such a job, they all wanted to wait to see Han Mingxiu showing a surprised look and looking ecstatic.

However, what surprised them was that after hearing the good news, Han Mingxiu didn't even show a half happy expression, and even a little more embarrassed and embarrassed, and said, "Uh...Thank you. Sister-in-law Hu's kindness is gone, but I don't want to go to work right now, so... my sister-in-law doesn't need to ask the Minister of Logistics for me, just ask Zhang He's wife to be alone..."

"Ah? You... don't want this job?" Chen Qiulan opened her mouth in disbelief.

Sister-in-law Zhou also persuaded in a low voice: "Mingxiu, don't you think about it anymore? It's not easy to enter the cafeteria."

Sister-in-law Wang also persuaded and said, "Mingxiu, you should discuss it with Jianfeng before making a decision. Eighty yuan a month, a hundred or so a year, you can decide on your own, if Jianfeng doesn't How are you happy?"

Han Mingxiu smiled and said, "I don't need to think about it, and I don't need to discuss it with him. I already have a plan for what to do in the next two years, and he already knows it, so thank you sister-in-law for your kindness, I really don't want to go. "

Chen Qiulan had been waiting for Han Mingxiu to express her gratitude to her, and she held the pot quite high, but they didn't buy her face at all. .

The lofty look just now appeared a little ridiculous.

Chen Qiulan coughed to hide her embarrassment, and said a little unwillingly: "Xiao Han, you don't have a child yet, you can live well on Jianfeng's salary, but when you have a child, When there are many places to use money, it is not so easy to make money. At that time, the children are holding you, and you can't come out to work to earn money. You just rely on Jianfeng's monthly salary, which is easy to do. What? Why don't you wait and starve, and tell your sister-in-law that you should take advantage of the fact that you can come out and earn some money now, and save money in the future."

She said so much, but Han Mingxiu only replied: "Thank you sister-in-law for your kindness, but I'm sorry sister-in-law, I really don't want to go."
