Day and night, alternating back and forth, before I knew it, the weather started to gradually cool down.
Since that day Su Shu’s personality had undergone a huge transformation, Tang Zelin kept a cautious eye around her each time they met, fearing that the girl wouldn’t play by the rules and would tease him with her words.
Even though he didn’t know what she had come to understand, his attitude towards him was no longer as cautious as before; she was like a flower blooming in the spring breeze, shedding the caution that encircled her, each and every move carried an even more enchanting quality.
He wasn’t afraid of her teasing him, but now he feared her teasing him late at night.
After two or three “embarrassing” trips down from the mountain drenched in sweat, Tang Zelin no longer dared to go up the mountain for a free meal late at night.
Seeing this, old Qu couldn’t stop laughing.
He said he had been disdained by Su Shu.
Tsk!
He, so good, being disdained?
Old Qu had never seen how that little wench teased him late at night.
That little wench full of tricks had learned the ploys he had used to “bully” her in the past and, without changing the essence, used them perfectly against him!
Let it be used, Tang Zelin recently couldn’t understand it no matter how he thought about it.
How did she know where his “weak spots” were?
For example, she couldn’t keep mentioning plums, apricots, sour plums, and… such things in his ear, otherwise he would feel his cheeks puff up uncomfortably.
But every time he teased her a bit, she could come up with various ways to annoy him.
Also, there was a spot behind his right ear that couldn’t be touched by others, touching it brought an indescribable feeling.
Well… anyway, it wasn’t a good feeling.
That damned girl, if he scolded her harshly, she would find a chance to touch that spot on the rebound.
A single touch, and his body would shudder.
And he couldn’t say anything to her; she had an “I don’t know anything” expression on her face.
Tang Zelin chewed on his cafeteria food resentfully, just unable to figure out how Su Shu, who was supposedly clueless, managed to accurately poke that exact spot every time with her rounded fingertips?
“Old Tang, what have you got against cornmeal cakes?”
Tang Zelin looked up, opposite him old Qu was slurping his soup from the bowl, and after taking a sip, he looked up and met Tang’s gaze.
“Right, it came down officially, the original policy is still to be implemented, but there have been changes regarding newborns.”
Upon hearing this, Tang Zelin’s expression became serious.
“What’s that mean?”
“Originally, wasn’t there a one-time allocation of newborn quotas when they were born?”
“Yeah.”
“During the trial stage in the various safety zones, a lot of incidents have occurred. Life is getting more stable recently, isn’t there a lot of people banding together to live? You’ve heard, right?”
“I’m aware of that situation; quite a few people have been disturbing Su Shu over there.”
“Then your little wife is okay?”
“You’ve said it yourself, she’s going to be my wife in the future, how could I let anything happen to her? I had someone send a message privately; she’s fine. Keep talking.”
“Alright, I’ll continue. Because there wasn’t an age definition for newborns originally, many cases have occurred where people were specifically having children to receive the quota and then abandoning them in the mountains.” Qu Guo’an sighed continuously.
Tang Zelin frowned and thought for a moment, “The safety zone hasn’t been established for long, and even if people start marrying and having children now, it wouldn’t be timely. Even for the children in their arms or those still unformed in their bellies, isn’t it unreliable for so many people to do such a thing?”
“Isn’t that the thing. Previously, the newborns were from women who were already pregnant before the disaster, and it wasn’t easy for those with big bellies to hold on until now. Some still have family, and some have lost their men; with nothing to their names and no sources of supplies, others would match them up, and two families would become one, living with another person. If children are born in our safety zone, there are those conscientious men who would rather go to the public sector to see if there’s any work to exchange for food, rather than covet that child’s portion. And there are those who do covet it.”
Talking about this, even Qu Guo’an, known for his good temper, couldn’t help but shake his head.
