After Song Xi finished drinking the chicken soup, Zhou Yi took out a biscuit box, opened the lid, and handed the biscuit box to Song Xi.
Under his shining eyes, Song Xi slowly opened a piece of cloth.
What caught my eye was a stack of dimes.
One cent, two cents, five cents... and coins, one cent, two cents...
Song Xi was a little surprised. She raised her head and met Zhou Yi's smiling eyes. She was very surprised and said, "Didn't you say..."
"Daughter-in-law, you are still a high school student. Don't you understand the principle of keeping your wealth private? If people in the village know that I have so much money, do you think I can still live a good life? Then anyone who borrows money and steals money can be
The threshold is stepped on. I don’t want my money to be used by outsiders. I just want it to be used by my wife. Wife, when we go to the commune, I will go to the big restaurant to buy meat buns for you to eat. How about it? "
Zhou Yi stretched out his hand and scratched the tip of Song Xi's nose. He was very satisfied with this little daughter-in-law! He could do anything for her.
Zhou Yi then counted the money inside again in front of Song Xi.
A total of two hundred and thirty-two dollars and sixty-five cents.
In this era when families have a savings of ten or twenty yuan a year, it is rare for him to have so much savings alone.
Zhou Yi took out two dollars and sixty-five cents and handed the remaining two hundred and thirty dollars to Song Xi very solemnly, "Daughter-in-law, from now on, all the money I earn will be given to you. You can use it however you want."
"
Song Xi couldn't bear it, "You can take it yourself. You are in good health and can go out often. I'm afraid it's not convenient for me to go out for the time being."
She knows her body well, and I'm afraid it will take a long time to recover.
"Then when I need money, I will ask my wife to get it. When my wife collects the money, I will be full of energy."
Zhou Yi patted his chest and said so proudly.
Song Xi couldn't believe that there was such a person behind this seemingly serious man.
How should I put it, he was much better than most of the men she had known before.
Not many of her relatives, including the young ones, are willing to hand over their wages to their wife for safekeeping.
"Then please find a place to hide it first, so that it won't be stolen when we are not at home."
Song Xi handed the biscuit box filled with money back to Zhou Yi, acquiescing to Zhou Yi's request - to manage the money for him!
Because of poverty, she was a little anxious at first.
She didn't expect this man to give her such a surprise.
Now that I have more than two hundred yuan, I don't need to worry too much for the time being.
You can slowly make plans for the future.
When Zhou Yi was planning to hide the cookie box in a secret compartment under the bed.
Suddenly I remembered that my daughter-in-law came into the Song family in a hurry and didn't even prepare a new dress for her.
He planned to take another twenty yuan from it, but gave up the idea the next second.
This money is given to the younger daughter-in-law for safekeeping, that is, the younger daughter-in-law’s money.
Since you want to buy new clothes for your little wife, you have to use your own money to buy them to show your sincerity.
Besides, next time I take my daughter-in-law to the commune, the main purpose is to give her a review.
How could he leave his little wife alone in the hospital and go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy clothes?
What should I do if my little daughter-in-law is taken away from me in the hospital?
So I'd better wait to buy new clothes for my little wife when I go to the commune alone.
This can also give your little daughter-in-law a surprise.
Song Xike didn't know that Zhou Yi was thinking so much, and she fell asleep again after a while.
When she woke up again, the whole world was dark. Song Xi was a little scared and shouted, "Is there anyone? Is there anyone?"
Song Xi didn't know the name of her new husband, and she didn't think of asking him during the day.
Now if she was asked to call him, she really didn't know what to call.
After struggling for a long time, Song Xicai spoke again, "Comrade, sir, husband, where are you? Why is the room so dark?"
Because no one paid attention to her, Song Xi changed her names several times.
"Honey...where's the lamp? Where's the lamp?" Song Xi patted the bed board and made a sound.
After a while, a faint light appeared at the door of the room.
Zhou Yi held a kerosene lamp and stood there nervously, "Daughter-in-law, what's wrong?"
"It's so dark in the room, where do you turn on the light?" Song Xi wanted to cover her face shyly.
She actually called "husband" to a stranger.
Fortunately, Zhou Yi didn't ask any more questions, otherwise she really wouldn't know how to explain.
Only when Song Xi saw the kerosene lamp in Zhou Yi's hand did she realize.
There was no electricity in this era. As a person from later generations, Song Xi didn't like the days without electricity.
Zhou Yi put the kerosene lamp on the table beside the bed, sat next to Song Xi, reached out and held Song Xi's soft little hand, "Daughter-in-law, what did you just call me? Wife-in-law, you recognize me, right?"
It turned out that this man heard everything, he just waited for her to call 'husband' before he showed up.
Huh, what a bad person.
Song Xi retracted her hand, admitting that she was just a fool.
After only one day of contact, I already agree. Is she that careless?
As a person from the next generation, shouldn’t you keep your eyes open and search carefully when looking for a husband?
"Daughter-in-law, from now on, you can call me Zhou Yi, Yi Ge, or Brother Zhou when you are outside. At home, you can call me husband."
Zhou Yi pulled Song Xi's retracted hand and patted it gently, feeling extremely excited.
"It's hot!" Song Xi glared at Zhou Yi and withdrew her hand again.
Holding her hand in this summer, my palms were sweaty, which was really embarrassing.
"Are you hungry? Let's go out for dinner." Zhou Yi picked up Song Xi and walked to the osmanthus tree in the courtyard.
He put Song Xi on the chair, then returned to the stove room and brought dinner over.
Song Xi's was chicken soup and stewed chicken legs that were soft and rotten, with no bones at all.
Zhou Yi's own is chicken soup, meatless parts such as chicken necks and feet, and two large steamed potatoes.
Seeing Song Xileng there, Zhou Yi urged, "Daughter-in-law, what are you looking at? Eat quickly, half a chicken was stewed today, and half of the chicken was frozen with well water. I will continue to stew it for you tomorrow.
You eat what you do, don't think too much, and don't save for me, you are my wife, raising you is what I should do and what I must do."
"Why do you always emphasize this matter?" Song Xi felt a little embarrassed when Zhou Yi saw her, and quickly lowered her head to drink the soup.
I didn't expect that the rough guys of this era would have such ideological awareness.
But she kept stressing about this matter, which almost made her ears feel calluses.
After eating and drinking, Zhou Yi was not in a hurry to clear away the dishes, but sat with Song Xi under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree to enjoy the cool air.
The kerosene lamp on the table swayed slightly in the hot summer evening breeze.
Song Xi noticed that the rough man opposite him was looking at her deeply, and her heartbeat suddenly started to beat like thunder, feeling nervous and scared.
With her current fragile appearance, it would be really easy for others to attack her.
She couldn't resist at all. How could she not be afraid?
