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

Seeing the dim eyes of the eldest sister, Han Mingxiu felt uneasy, and almost blurted out, asking the three of them to come back and spend time with her.

But thinking about it, it feels unrealistic. The eldest sister is the kind of traditional woman who marry a chicken and follow a chicken, and marry a dog and follow a dog. As long as she can live well in her husband's house, she will definitely not drag her children back to her mother's house to make trouble for her sister.

Besides, she is about to give birth, and maybe she will give birth to a big fat boy. If she has a son, her life may turn around. Therefore, the eldest sister will never agree to her, at least not at this time.

Of course, if there is still a daughter, the eldest sister's life will be even worse. By then, it will not be too late to let her come back...

"Sister, can you stay at home today?" Han Mingxiu asked.

Considering that the eldest sister is heavy and the weather is cold and slippery outside, and it is not easy to walk back and forth, she thinks about letting the eldest sister stay at home for one night, she will make her something delicious to nourish her body, and then send some noodles to steam. A few steamed buns for her to bring back to her two nephews and daughters.

But the eldest sister said, "No, there is still a lot of business at home. I will leave in a while, and I will be relieved if you are all right."

Han Mingxiu didn't force it. She knew the situation of the elder sister's house. If she went back late, her mother-in-law and brother-in-law would have something to do. She should go back earlier to save them from making trouble.

"Take me to boil some water for you, you wait." Seeing the eldest sister sitting on the edge of the kang and pounding her legs, she knew that she must be in a hurry. She must be thirsty now, so she wanted to cook it for her. Drink some hot water.

The eldest sister said, "Don't bother, just scoop me some cold water to drink."

"It's okay, I just want to drink it too." Han Mingxiu took a few mouthfuls of the remaining lump of soup into his mouth, got up and cleaned up the tableware and chopsticks on the table, and went into the kitchen, while heating water. Cleaned the bowls and chopsticks.

The eldest sister did not see her outside, sitting on the head of the kang, across the wall, the two sisters talked in the same room and in the kitchen.

"Xiu, did your second sister write to you during this time?"

"No, the second sister hasn't written to me for a long time. Did I write to you?" Han Mingxiu was cleaning the pot with a brush.

The second sister in her mouth is the second child in the family. Her name is Han Mingyu. She is 19 years old this year. She married to the county town before her parents' accident last fall. Her husband's family name is Lin. Her husband is still a small official. The station master, after the second sister got married, she was arranged by her father-in-law to be a temporary worker in the acquisition station. She could earn twelve yuan a month, and it would be more than one hundred in a year, which is more than the old man who earns work points in the village. They earn a lot, and they are almost greedy for the big girls and the little daughters-in-law in the village.

However, other people's jealousy is someone else's, but Han Mingxiu is not jealous, because only she knows what the second sister is living in the city.

Although the second brother-in-law treats the second sister very well, the second sister's parents-in-law do not like seeing the second sister, and they always make her annoyed. People, the second sister is not allowed to recruit rural relatives to her home.

At that time, Han Mingxiu didn't know the second sister's status in her husband's house. After her father and mother died, she went to the second sister's house stupidly. Now that I am back, I will never mention the matter of visiting relatives in the city...

The second sister was arranged by her father-in-law to be a temporary worker in their purchasing station. She goes to work every day, she is busy with work, and has no time to come back to see her sister, but occasionally she will write a letter or two to ask her about her situation. Communication between the two sisters depends entirely on correspondence.

Later, Han Mingxiu was ordered by her grandmother to give Zhang Er a donkey. Han Mingxiu also wrote a letter to the second sister for help. Unfortunately, for some reason, the second sister never replied to her letter or came back to see her.

She had no way to ask for help alone, she hit a wall everywhere, and finally died in despair...

For the second sister did not respond to her letter or did not come back to help her, the original owner's psychology was resentful, thinking that the second sister was ruthless and unrighteous, patronizing herself to live a good life, regardless of her sister's life or death...

But now Han Mingxiu feels that she should not blame the second sister. By recalling the events of her childhood, she feels that the second sister is not the kind of person who cares for her to live a good life regardless of her life. There must be something wrong here.

As for what the problem is, she hasn't figured it out yet, but it's definitely not the second sister who ignores her.

"I didn't even write to me. I don't know what's wrong with this girl. It's been a few months and I haven't had a letter. It's really worrying..." The eldest sister was worrying about it in the room.

Han Mingxiu said, "Just in the past two days, I'm going to the town to do some errands, why don't I drop by the county seat to see her?"

"Well, it's okay to go and have a look, just take a look there and leave, don't eat at others' houses." The elder sister knew that the second sister's parents-in-law looked down on the rural people, and she was afraid that the younger sister would be annoying when she was ignorant to eat at others' houses, so she ordered a sentence.

Han Mingxiu said, "I won't go to her house to see her. I will go to their buying station to see her, but I won't meet his family."

"That's fine, your second sister finally got married in the city, let's not hold her back."

"Ok, I know."

"By the way, what are you going to do in town? Who are you going with?"

Han Mingxiu said, "I'm going to go to the supply and marketing agency to buy a few meters of plastic sheeting, and fix the windows. You see, it's cold in this room, so it's not too hot to burn. I thought about fixing the windows so that the wind wouldn't blow in. It will be warmer in the house.”

The eldest sister said, "You child, the older you get, the more delicate you are. Our family never orders plastic sheets in winter, and I have never heard you complain about being too cold. Why do you think about buying that thing now? What a waste of money. !"

Han Mingxiu said, I used to live in a building with collective heating. In winter, the room temperature is above 20 degrees Celsius. I have become accustomed to that temperature.

Hearing that Han Mingxiu didn't speak, the eldest sister seemed to feel that she had said a bit too much, and hurriedly asked for a supplement: "It's okay to buy some, but you don't have to go to the town, it's really hard to run back and forth when you're hungry all the way, in a few days. It’s the first day of the first year, so when the first day of the first year goes to the fair, it’s good to go to the fair to buy it, the stock is full, the things are cheap, and many things don’t even need a ticket, your brother-in-law buys things when there is a fair.”

The market in the mouth of the eldest sister is a large market held by several production teams on the first and fifteenth days of each month. These two days, each production team will go to the market to bring their chickens, ducks, geese and other livestock. Or the surplus production materials such as grain and firewood are sold at the market. The price is fair and cheaper than usual. The supply and marketing society and the store will move the backlog of goods to the market to sell. Willing to go to the set to buy.
