Chapter 43: The Epistles
In terms of time, Zhang Chenyi has been gone for more than a week, and his letter came so quickly, which means that he wrote the letter immediately after he returned.
Chen Xiangqin took the letter from her mother-in-law in surprise, bit her lip, and asked with some hesitation, "Mom, do you want to wait for Dad to come back, I'll read it to you." ”
"You don't need to read it, just tell us about it when you're done." Mother Zhang smiled and waved her hand, looking at her daughter-in-law with a clear face, "He just left and wrote a letter, and this letter must not be about us." Go back to the house and see for yourself. ”
Chen Xiangqin smiled embarrassedly when her mother-in-law said this.
When I returned to the house and opened the envelope, Chen Xiangqin's hands trembled a little, and I didn't know why she was so excited, but she felt joy filling her heart.
Xiangqin:
I'm already in the troops, and everything is going well. What about you? How are your parents? What about siblings? Did it get you in trouble? By the way, how are your clothes doing? Have they been sold? I think it must not be a problem to sell, you are doing so good. After my comrades-in-arms saw the clothes you brought me, they were very envious and said that I had married a good daughter-in-law. This also uses them to say, my daughter-in-law is the best, they don't even know how good you are!
Daughter-in-law, thank you for giving me "The Art of War", I was very happy when I opened my luggage and saw it. I finished reading the book in the car, and I thought it would be better for people to read more. You don't know, our army also has a borrowing room, and we can read the books casually, and I plan to go there to squat after training.
I just separated from you, and I don't know what to say, I just feel like I miss you. When I sleep by myself at night, I always feel that I can't sleep without you, obviously I have been here alone for more than 20 years, why can't I do it now. Alas, it's really hard to go from luxury to frugality, but it's really sad.
Daughter-in-law, don't be too tired, don't be in a hurry to make money, when I get good results in the military exercise, I will have the opportunity to get a commission as a platoon leader, and the allowance will be five yuan more a month. I'll mail it to you when the time comes. We've blown the trumpet, we're going to turn off the lights, that's all we have written, and we look forward to your reply.
Miss your Zhang Chenyi.
However, Chen Xiangqin read the letter of about 400 words for more than ten minutes, read it again and again, read it word by word, and finally memorized it.
Fortunately, I didn't read this letter to my mother-in-law just now, otherwise I would have lost my life, and the daughter-in-law on it felt ashamed when she saw it, and he also said that he missed her more than once, and said that he couldn't sleep without her.
That's what a thing!
Chen Xiangqin folded the letter, properly received it in her small box, immediately took out a pen and paper, and began to reply to him, originally felt that there were a thousand words to say, but when she began to write, she didn't know what to say, and finally wrote about the situation at home in a regular manner.
Brother Yi:
I received your letter. My parents are very good and healthy, and my younger siblings are so well-behaved, how can they cause trouble for me, you can rest assured. Good news for you, my clothes are selling! Today, the proprietress of the store came to our house to buy clothes, she ordered a lot, and we are going to make a lot of money!
Xiaoru is also great, she can already make her own clothes and sell them for money! This little girl is now in the eyes of money, and she has been busy making clothes and has not eaten.
There is no news from Sangu's side yet, but I am confident that it will not be less. Therefore, the family's money is enough to spend, you can keep the army's allowance and spend it, the training is so hard, you buy more meat to eat. Also, I think you're right, it's a good thing to learn more things and read more books, I heard people say that there are also places in the army to go to military schools for further study, Brother Yi, come on, read more books, maybe we also have a chance!
That's it, I'm going to make clothes too. Take care.
Chen Xiangqin looked at what she wrote, and felt that compared to Zhang Chenyi's letter, she was much more serious, and finally hesitated, and when she signed it at the end, she followed his example and wrote 'Miss your Xiangqin'.
Chen Xiangqin hurriedly found an envelope, affixed a stamp, and wrote the address on it.
After sealing the letter, Chen Xiangqin patted her head in annoyance, she actually forgot to ask her in-laws if they had anything to explain, so she just wrote it by herself.
Where is this family letter, this is going to become a love letter to the two of them.
The more Chen Xiangqin thought about it, the more embarrassed she became, and she didn't feel sorry for the envelope, so she simply opened it, went out of the house, and saw that her father-in-law had also come back from outside, so she said with a smile,
"Dad, Brother Yi has a letter. Said that he was in the army and everything was fine. He also said that he would read more books and learn more knowledge there, strive to get good results during military exercises, and seize the opportunity to become a platoon leader. Dad, I'm replying to the letter, what do you have to explain, I'll write it together. ”
"Good, good." When Zhang's father heard that his son was so motivated, he smiled a little from ear to ear, and took two puffs of dry tobacco before saying,
"You just let him train hard, don't worry about me and his mother, with you at home, it's much better than before."
Chen Xiangqin responded with a smile, and went to ask her mother-in-law again, but there was no new instructions, she thought that she would write it according to her in-laws' original words.
She went back to the house, took out another piece of stationery, added her in-laws' words, and sealed it in a new envelope.
When it was done, it happened that the village party secretary in the village sent someone again, saying that there was their phone number, and it was their third aunt who called from the county seat.
When Chen Xiangqin heard it, she knew that there was news about the clothes, so she hurriedly ran to the office of the village committee, and at the same time thought, it is really inconvenient to have no mobile phone now, and now she has a big brother, but where can she buy it. But when you have money, you can buy a pager to try, and it will be easier to connect.
-
"Niece and daughter-in-law, guess what, because of your clothes, the third aunt is really long-faced in front of her mother-in-law's family this time! Hahaha......"
As soon as the phone was connected, Zhang Meixiang's hearty laughter came from the other side, which made Chen Xiangqin laugh along, "Third aunt, is that good news?" ”
"Absolutely! The third aunt is afraid that you can't be busy, just this one person at the birthday banquet, as soon as they heard that my clothes can be ordered according to their wishes, it is like flowing water, they all come to me, there can be thirty or forty people! Also, the processing fee we just ordered was only five yuan, which is too little! The third aunt is in charge of you, ten yuan a piece. These people are fat sheep and don't care about the ten dollars! You wait, after the third aunt has finished the size and materials of these people, she will send them to you. ”
"Sangu thank you so much!!" Chen Xiangqin said gratefully, her heart was warm.
"Thank you, thank you, just because of you. Your third aunt and my waist pole are straight in front of your mother-in-law's family for the first time, and the third aunt has to thank you. Zhang Meixiang said with a smile, "By the way, what kind of medicine did you give my daughter-in-law, who stood aside and kept talking to you." ”
As soon as Chen Xiangqin heard the music, she knew that Sun Hong was looking for herself, and it must be for the bra, "Haha...... Third aunt, this is a secret between our little daughters-in-law, I won't tell you. Ask your daughter-in-law, and if you need it, I'll give it to you. ”
"You're bad...... Sun Hong answered the phone and said to her angrily, "My mother-in-law doesn't look at me right." Alas, I was so shy to sell you that thing, and you buried it in the end. ”
Chen Xiangqin hurriedly smiled and confessed to her, and when she heard the news she brought, she was even more happy, this is also the way to make a fortune!
After hanging up the phone, Chen Xiangqin did not go home directly, but went to Dazhu's house, which killed pigs and sold pork in the village, bought eight catties of pork, and brought three catties of pork ribs home.
"Xiangqin, why did you buy so much meat?" Mother Zhang was startled when she saw what her daughter-in-law was lifting.
"Hehe, Mom, we're making money, don't be reluctant, today we eat meat, and we're going to vomit!" Chen Xiangqin went to the kitchen with the meat, her eyes blinked, and she said to Zhang's mother mischievously.
Mother Zhang, "......"
