~9 min read 1,647 words

The next morning, the broadcast of the Shuangshui Brigade rang as usual, after the broadcast for work stopped.

They heard Su Qianqian's reluctant voice apologizing to Su Qingyue. "... Finally, I apologize to Comrade Su Qingyue again, I'm sorry! I promise to get along with you harmoniously in the future..."

Su Qingyue heard it in the room and the corners of her mouth curved. She got up, finished tidying up, and combed Qingxi's hair into a high ponytail. "Sister-in-law, you go collect vegetables with Brigade Captain Xiang; I told him I'm resting today." Su Qingyue clipped a delicate butterfly hair accessory onto her younger sister's hair.

"Alright, then you take the two children and take the car, go slowly on the road."

Li Zilan set out the food and hurried to the threshing floor with Su Qingwu.

"Sister, a ponytail looks really good, hehe~" Su Qingxi looked in the mirror and laughed out loud.

She usually helped with work and couldn't bear to wear the new clothes her sister brought back. Today, she was going to the county town and was exceptionally excited to be dressed up by her sister.

The little girl was already delicate and cute, and the lower half of her face was extremely like Qingyue's. She changed into a floral dress and wore a pair of small black leather shoes, looking lively, cute, and full of vitality.

Zhuangzhuang was still eating a bun, looking at the two aunts, and acted like a spoiled child with slurred speech. "Little Auntie has become beautiful, I want to be beautiful too~"

Su Qingyue tapped his little nose. "Alright, Auntie will dress you up too."

Su Qingxi smiled and took Zhuangzhuang to wash his hands and face. Su Qingyue changed him into a pure cotton white short-sleeved shirt, put on a pair of denim overalls, wore white sneakers on his feet, and a small sun hat on his head.

Zhuangzhuang thought the mirror was too small, so he ran to the big basin in the courtyard to look in the mirror. He touched the colorful buttons on his overalls with his little hands very lovingly, his voice soft and cute. "Auntie, am I too beautiful!"

"Who said that, you're not as beautiful as me!" Su Qingxi squeezed next to Zhuangzhuang, and the two of them showed off to each other in the water in the big basin, laughing and making a scene.

Shen Xunbao finally waited for the weekend, he couldn't bear it for a moment and wanted to change identities with Qiao Wang immediately.

Su Qianqian was kicked by Pei Huaiye yesterday and had been crying and making a scene all night. He had no choice but to promise her to move from the Educated Youth Courtyard to the new house.

Then it was terrible, Su Qianqian tried every means to be intimate with Shen Xunbao, Shen Xunbao avoided her and ran out of the door, going to find Brigade Captain Xiang to ask for a few days off.

He didn't expect Pei Huaiye to be there too.

He had changed into a set of coarse cloth clothes, but it didn't affect his tall and handsome appearance at all, he was talking to Brigade Captain Xiang about building a house.

Shen Xunbao had asked for leave and could have left, but his feet felt like they were glued to the ground and he couldn't move half a step.

He felt the heartbeat deep in his heart, there was a trace of joy, and a trace of sadness. Thinking of that letter in the Capital and the person he had harmed, he gave a self-deprecating smile and returned to the new house.

Shen Xunbao rubbed his temples and persuaded Su Qianqian for several hours before she agreed to read the apology draft he wrote.

"Then you promise me the bride price, I want the 'three rounds and one sound', not a single one can be missing!" Su Qianqian looked arrogant.

"Alright."

"Li Cuiyan won't make my wedding dress anymore, we'll buy a new wedding dress."

"Hmm."

"The bed sheets and quilts must all be new, don't make them!"

"Anything is fine."

Shen Xunbao drooped his tired eyes, listening to Su Qianqian's requirements, and calculated carefully.

Waking up early this morning, Su Qianqian changed into a red dress, wore small red leather shoes on her feet, and combed her ear-length short hair neatly. To cover her dark circles, she also applied powder. At this moment, she was applying lipstick in front of the mirror, the bright colors making her mood pleasant.

Su Qianqian was afraid the bicycle would be too bumpy, so she took Shen Xunbao's arm and went to the village entrance to wait for the public bus.

There were exceptionally many people waiting for the bus on the weekend, and Su Qianqian was dressed brightly, attracting a lot of attention.

She was triumphant for a moment and raised her chin. She was a daughter from the Capital, with a noble temperament, and it was only right that she was the focus wherever she went!

"My god, she's so beautiful!"

"Hey! Look at her dress, it's so beautiful!"

"Her younger sister is also very beautiful, and the little boy next to her is also very cute."

Su Qianqian was originally floating, but as she listened, the smile on the corners of her mouth suddenly stiffened.

She turned her head and saw Su Qingyue bringing Su Qingxi and Su Zhuangzhuang walking towards the bus station.

Su Qingyue was wearing a tender yellow dress, the material was soft and close-fitting, outlining her slender and exquisite figure.

The exposed swan neck, arms, and calves were all set off by the tender yellow dress to be more soft and snow-white.

Her cheeks were delicate and small, her pair of peach-blossom eyes were crystal clear, her skin was white and tender, and her black hair was braided into two loose braids in front of her chest. The whole person was fresh and agile, indescribably pure and charming.

Su Qingxi was beautiful and charming, and Su Zhuangzhuang was lively and cute. The appearance of the three of them instantly attracted everyone's attention.

"Qingyue, are you taking your sister and little nephew to the county town?"

Passersby greeted them one after another, and Su Qingyue responded one by one. "Yes, Auntie, just resting, taking them out for a stroll."

Su Qianqian looked at Su Qingyue, who was surrounded by stars, and was so angry that her back molars were about to be crushed. She spat softly, pushed through the crowd angrily, got on the bus, sat down, and kept a straight face without saying a word.

Shen Xunbao apologized to the people whose feet were stepped on behind her. He sat down next to Su Qianqian and roared in a low voice, "If you continue to be so unreasonable, let's not get married!"

Su Qianqian turned her head, her eyes red and pupils wide, just wanting to say something, but Shen Xunbao turned his head and ignored her.

Su Qianqian looked out the window, tears streaming down her cheeks, blurring her delicate makeup. She clenched her fists and then loosened them, her eyes becoming more and more resentful. She swore she must make Su Qingyue rot and stink!

Arriving at the county town, Su Qianqian went straight to the State-run Department Store.

She returned to her weak and obedient appearance. "Brother Shen, it was my fault just now, don't be angry with me."

Shen Xunbao had never felt anything for a woman's coquetry. He frowned slightly. "You go pick out a watch first, I'm going to the bathroom."

Su Qianqian knew that men didn't like shopping, so she had to stroll around by herself first.

Shen Xunbao walked out of the department store and ran all the way back to Fengshu Xiang.

Qiao Wang was writing a manuscript and saw his brother coming from the window, immediately opening the door. "You're here, what's the situation recently?"

The two exchanged information while changing clothes. Qiao Wang changed, handed the manuscript to Shen Xunbao. "Remember to submit it on time, don't worry about the money, I'll find a way."

Shen Xunbao pushed his glasses. "Don't ask Mom and Dad, how much money can they have?"

Qiao Wang sighed, his eyes flickering. "Don't worry, Su Qianqian has plenty of money."

Shen Xunbao pressed his eyebrows. "By the way, Su Qianqian is pregnant, don't have a conflict with Pei Huaiye and Su Qingyue for now."

Qiao Wang's hand on the door stopped. He turned around, his voice trembling. "Brother, you... are you saying I'm going to be a father?"

"Hmm, take her to the hospital for a checkup after buying things, she yesterday..."

Before Shen Xunbao could finish speaking, Qiao Wang grinned and ran out.

He was just thinking that his eldest brother was really stupid, buying what 'three rounds and one sound', spending that unjust money just to please a woman?

But thinking that Su Qianqian was pregnant with his own child, and thinking that he would have a home in the future, he suddenly felt it was worth it.

Buy! Anyway, he had a way to make Su Qianqian pay for it herself.

Qiao Wang ran into the department store in one breath. Su Qianqian was looking at clothes at a counter, hesitating about which one to buy. "If you like them, buy them all!"

Qiao Wang looked at Su Qianqian with joy, his gaze scanning her lower abdomen.

Su Qianqian was pleasantly surprised. "Brother Shen, are you serious?"

Qiao Wang took the clothes, held Su Qianqian's hand, and went to pay. "How could it be fake to buy two clothes for my own wife."

Su Qianqian's heart softened, and she suddenly felt that Shen Xunbao was actually quite good. It was just that he had the temper of a young master, sometimes good and sometimes bad.
