Forced to go to the countryside, the arrogant young lady got married and became a military wife

Chapter 114 Drinking Tea and Watching the Moon

Xu Huaian waved his hands repeatedly: "No, all our family's money belongs to you, spend it however you want, buy whatever you want, I have no objection."

Seeing that he had such a strong desire to survive, Shi Qingqian let him go.

Seeing that she was not angry, Xu Huaian said again: "Wife, how come you know so much about jadeite and can even tell whether the rough stone is good or not?"

Shi Qingqian paused, oh no, he had revealed too much and it was hard to explain.

"Well..." Shi Qingqian explained, "I'm fine. I read all kinds of books, so I know a little bit about everything."

Xu Huaian raised his eyebrows and looked at Shi Qingqian. As a soldier with sensitivity and as her husband, it was easy for him to tell whether she was talking nonsense or not.

But Xu Huaian did not ask any further questions. He knew that Shi Qingqian must have other secrets besides space. As long as it was not a bad thing, he did not want to interfere too much.

"Well, my wife, you really know a lot." Xu Huaian said with a smile, and then buried his head in eating noodles.

Shi Qingqian breathed a sigh of relief and continued eating noodles.

"Wife, put that thing in the space and don't take it out. The current situation is special and it may cause trouble."

Shi Qingqian nodded: "Don't worry, I know, I put it in a long time ago."

After eating the noodles, Xu Huaian took the initiative to clean up the dishes, while Shi Qingqian went to look at the persimmons in the yard.

After Xu Huaian came out of the kitchen, he saw Shi Qingqian checking the persimmons, so he walked over and said, "Wife, these persimmons look pretty good."

Shi Qingqian nodded and said, "Yes, it's definitely not going to be done in a short while. I have to wait until tomorrow to peel it."

Xu Huaian looked at the persimmons, then looked at Shi Qingqian, and said with a smile: "Wife, you put so much effort into making the persimmon cakes, they must be very delicious."

Shi Qingqian raised her head proudly: "Of course not, I have a famous teacher teaching me. My auntie... my neighbor's auntie is very good at making persimmon cakes."

Xu Huaian smiled. He knew that Shi Qingqian would sometimes be a little confused when speaking, but he also thought she was cute like that.

"Wife, I'll be waiting to taste the persimmon cakes you made."

"Why aren't you afraid of going to the hospital?"

"Eat it even when you're in the hospital!"

After all, it was made by his wife herself, so he had to eat it even if it poisoned him.

Shi Qingqian: "That's right, but don't worry, the persimmon cakes I make won't poison you."

Shi Qingqian turned around and went back to the house. After a while, she brought out a small tea tray with two cups of brewed bamboo leaf tea on it.

"Today is the fifteenth day of the lunar month, and the moon is full. How about we drink tea and admire the moon in the yard?"

Xu Huaian's eyes lit up, "Okay, that's a good idea."

He went into the house and brought out a bench.

Shi Qingqian placed the tea tray on the small table next to her, handed a cup of tea to Xu Huaian, and picked up a cup for herself.

The moonlight sprinkled into the teacup, and the light green tea seemed to be coated with a layer of silver.

Xu Huaian smelled the tea and took a sip, "It smells so good, my wife."

"This bamboo leaf tea is fragrant and refreshing, very suitable for drinking in summer," Shi Qingqian said, "and I brewed it very lightly, so it won't affect my sleep."

Today is the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar, when the moon is at its fullest every month. Although it is not as bright as the Mid-Autumn Festival moon, it still has its own charm.

The two sat quietly in the yard, enjoying this moment of tranquility.

Xu Huaian looked at Shi Qingqian. Her face looked particularly soft under the moonlight. He couldn't help but reach out and gently stroke her hair.

Shi Qingqian tilted her head slightly and said with a smile, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Xu Huaian said softly: "I just think my wife is so beautiful. Marrying you is the luckiest thing in my life."

Shi Qingqian's face flushed slightly, "You stole the honey and you actually say sweet words."

Xu Huaian gently squeezed Shi Qingqian's hand and said, "This is not sweet talk, this is my true feelings."

Shi Qingqian gave him a reproachful look and said, "You only know how to make me happy." But the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.

At this time, a breeze blew, bringing a hint of coolness and also blowing the clothes hanging in the yard.

Xu Huaian stood up, sorted the clothes and put them back on the clothesline.

Shi Qingqian looked at his back, her heart filled with warmth. She felt that although such a life was plain, it was full of happiness.

After Xu Huaian sorted out his clothes, he sat back on the stool and said, "Wife, the political commissar wants to arrange the meeting for the day after tomorrow. At that time, Wu Jiaojiao and Aunt Tan will come on stage to review and apologize. They will be examples, and the others can be ignored."

Shi Qingqian frowned. "Forget it? They've spread rumors about me so much, and we're just going to let it go. Political Commissar Wen is really good at smoothing things over."

"That's not called playing it safe," Xu Huaian corrected him. "The political commissar also took many factors into consideration. If everyone is singled out and punished, it will be detrimental to the harmony and stability of the courtyard."

"The key now is to use Wu Jiaojiao and Aunt Tan as role models to serve as a warning to everyone."

"Besides, the political commissar won't completely let the others go. He will privately have Sisters Zheng and Yang organize a reprimand for them."

Shi Qingqian snorted, knowing in her heart that this was the best solution.

"Okay, that's it for now. If there are any more rumors like this, I'll go complain to Grandpa."

She now has a backer, and a very big one at that.

Xu Huaian couldn't help but laugh after hearing what Shi Qingqian said, "Yes, my wife has a backer, no one can afford to offend her, but I'm here, I won't let you suffer this kind of grievance in the future."

Shi Qingqian rolled her eyes at him and said, "You only know how to say nice things."

"But then again, this incident between Wu Jiaojiao and Aunt Tan won't affect you, right?"

"What affects me?"

"Comradeship. They are all military families. Will it affect your relationship with your comrades?"

Xu Huaian: "Of course not. This was their fault in the first place. They all know what is right and wrong. Moreover, the political commissar's handling of the matter is also very fair and everyone can accept it."

Tan Xin is the battalion commander under him. He is an honest and upright person. He will only persuade his mother about this matter instead of blaming others.

Zhou Yang had already been beaten up by him, so even if he had any complaints, he couldn't utter one.

Shi Qingqian nodded. "That's good. I don't want to cause you any trouble in the army because of their affairs."

"Okay, it's getting late, let's go inside and rest," Xu Huaian said, standing up and pulling Shi Qingqian into the house.

"Hey, the teacups on the table haven't been cleared away yet."

Seeing Xu Huaian so anxious, Shi Qingqian knew what he was going to do and quickly found an excuse to escape.

Before he could even turn around, Xu Huaian picked him up and he had no chance to struggle.
