Rebirth in Famine: She Thrives by Lucky Space-Chapter 577 Life
Jiang Xinyu rolled her eyes at Wei Kaiyun, worrying too early as Feifei was only four years old.
"Wife, you’ll only be able to live here with me in the future."
"It doesn’t matter. It’s the same everywhere. As long as our family is together, I don’t care."
Wei Kaiyun felt deeply moved in his heart, thinking his wife was really good to him, which showed he had good taste.
The couple stayed close until 1:30 in the afternoon. When the children woke up, Jiang Xinyu made some milk for each of them. The kids were still young and needed more calcium to ensure they would grow taller and stronger in the future.
Of course, Wei Kaiyun also needed some since he was currently recovering from an injury and needed calcium supplements.
Finally catching a break, she called Sister-in-law Liu to the storage room, where they spent an hour cutting the ribs, which were to be kept for making soup for him.
During this troubling period, even though Jiang Xinyu was by his side and he had been nourished plenty, the injury was done, causing some damage that needed mending.
In the evening, the family ate porridge with ribs. None of the three children ate the ribs; they all gave them to Wei Kaiyun. This made him extremely satisfied. It was the children being filial to him.
Before bed, Sister-in-law Liu wanted Feifei to stay with her, but Jiang Xinyu refused. It was better for Feifei to stay with them. When the weather warmed, they would build two more rooms as the daughter grew up and needed her own room.
Sister-in-law Liu lay down on the brick bed and breathed a sigh of relief. Initially, Xiao Yang said after Shi Jing’s mother arrived, she wouldn’t be needed, but seeing today’s situation, it seemed she would still be kept.
She felt content with this. The family ate well, the work wasn’t tiring, and she earned twenty yuan each month. It was like a windfall from heaven. Losing this job would send her back to being a workhorse at home.
She wasn’t entirely without cunning. She told her mother-in-law that they provided meals and accommodations here and gave her five yuan a month, saving four yuan for herself, leaving sixteen yuan.
Her husband had died, and there were no children, so she didn’t need to give money, but it was still home. If she really estranged herself from her in-laws, she feared having nowhere to go. After all, her own family had already disowned her.
Sister-in-law Liu’s real name was Du Fengying, who had always led a hard life. Her father died early, and after her elder brother married, he couldn’t care for them. It was just her and her mother depending on each other. After her mother passed away, her sister-in-law sold her to a man. He was also useless, and died before they had children.
A few days ago, her father-in-law passed away. As a daughter-in-law, she still had to go back once.
Feeling settled, she soon fell asleep.
Wei Kaiyun held Jiang Xinyu tightly, provoking Jiang Xinyu to slap him twice, "Hurry up and go to sleep."
"Wife, I want to."
Jiang Xinyu righteously said, "No way, your injury hasn’t healed. If it leaves a lasting problem in your leg, I’ll despise you."
Wei Kaiyun knew even if he couldn’t get up his whole life, Jiang Xinyu wouldn’t leave him, "Wife, you wouldn’t bear to leave me."
"You have a thick skin. Go to sleep. You really need to take care of yourself. We all rely on you in the future."
Wei Kaiyun, because he was recuperating, couldn’t stay idle. So he was restless at night.
"Wife, how was Kong Demin when you came over?"
"There was a public trial meeting, but I couldn’t squeeze in to see it. The final result is he’s to be executed in July next year. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎
All his assets have been confiscated. His mother-in-law was dismissed, and those three kids and Zheng Xiuxiang are in our village."
"He hates me to death. When I went back to burn incense, his mother almost ate me alive."
"It’s better to go back less often. There’s no need to get upset with them."
"But I can’t just not go back. I think Kong Zhongyou’s tenure as village head is about over."
"What about the rest of the Kong Family?"
"The Kong twins have resigned to farm, Kong Menglin got divorced, and Kong Mengjie and Huang Hongwei were dismissed from the textile factory."
"What happened to Huang Hongwei?"
"Since Kong Mengjie harmed me, of course, I retaliated. The new director is understanding, and they were subjected to a public parade because of what happened before their marriage.
Many were envious of Huang Hongwei’s position, so there was a meeting to decide his dismissal.
Qian Jun gave him face by letting him resign himself."
"By resigning, there’s still a chance to work at the textile factory again in the future."
"Huang Hongwei is alright. Once this period passes, if he wants to go back, Qian Jun will agree."
Wei Kaiyun felt it was already late, rhythmically patting his wife’s back, and soon she fell asleep.
Wei Kaiyun didn’t have time to sleep before, so he closed his eyes and thought.
He was unwilling to stay here for life. This matter would eventually pass, and then he could take his family away.
By that time, things should have become clearer, and their family could be together openly and honestly.
Early the next morning, the children got up to exercise, and Jiang Xinyu accompanied them, doing simple exercises, mainly to keep the children company.
Sister-in-law Liu confirmed that breakfast was rice porridge, which she had never made before. So Jiang Xinyu went to the kitchen to make it, letting her watch.
This person was too cautious. There were pros and cons to this.
"Sister-in-law Liu, knead some dough and make a few pancakes. It can’t be too dry. Don’t make them too dry, and use more oil."
"Okay, I got it."
Jiang Xinyu heated a bowl of bone soup for Wei Kaiyun, adding some sesame oil. The whole room was filled with its aroma.
"Wife, once my leg heals, I’ll definitely gain weight."
"Once spring arrives and you’re back to working the fields, you won’t be fat."
After breakfast, the children studied, and Jiang Xinyu slowly unpacked the things she brought, secretly taking out some supplies and food.
Suddenly, she heard the sound of a car outside. Was Old Yang here again?
Jiang Xinyu stepped out of the house and saw two young men carrying a slaughtered pig into the yard. Old Yang followed behind them with a large bucket of oil. Judging by the color, it seemed to be soybean oil.
"Xiao Jiang, this is the New Year’s goods Han Xiangjun asked me to prepare for you and the children. You don’t need to go out and shop again. There are eggs, flour, and sugar in the car too."
Jiang Xinyu laughed, "That’s wonderful. I was just thinking of going to the city to shop for New Year’s goods, and now I won’t lack anything."
"There’s a big market in the township. You can go and have a look. It’s all collective stuff from different villages, and individuals aren’t allowed to buy and sell."
Once all the New Year’s goods were unloaded, Old Yang went to find Wei Kaiyun. Jiang Xinyu gave each of the young men a bowl of Malted Milk.
At first, they were embarrassed, but Jiang Xinyu’s attitude was so sincere that they finally took the bowls and drank it all.
At this time, those who could afford to drink Malted Milk were considered capable. Ordinary people couldn’t afford it.
