Chapter 143: Cannon Fodder 27
In the early morning, the sun gradually filled the Qi family yard, bringing a touch of warmth and brightness to this small yard.
When the eldest sister-in-law of the Qi family walked into the kitchen, she saw Qi Jiayi busy at work and said jokingly: "Old Fifth, you are becoming more and more caring after getting married!"
When Qi Jiayi heard this, he felt a little embarrassed, and even his ears turned slightly red.
Seeing this, Yuan Wei hurried to help him out and said to Ma Dasao with a smile: "Sister-in-law, please don't say that. Doesn't my brother love people?"
Ma Xiaocui looked at Yuan Wei's happy smile and couldn't help but sigh: "Look, Lao Wu hasn't done anything yet, and someone is protecting him! But he does need someone to love him."
Qi Jiayi quietly slipped away while they were chatting.
Ma Xiaocui and Ma Jinlan are from the same village. They have known the five brothers of the Qi family since childhood. As the eldest sister-in-law, she can be said to have watched Qi Jiayi grow up.
She has a straightforward personality and is close to Yuan Wei, so she speaks without any reservations.
With her help, Yuan Wei prepared breakfast much faster.
After the family finished their lively meal, they went their separate ways.
Those who go to work go to work, and those who go to school go to school.
Yuan Wei doesn't need to go to work for the time being because she is on wedding leave.
She followed Qi Jiayi back to the room and asked as she sorted out her things, "How many days of vacation do you have left?"
"There are still five days left. This is for you." Qi Jiayi took out a passbook and handed it to Yuan Wei.
Yuan Wei took it doubtfully, opened it, and was instantly shocked: "Where did so much money come from?"
There was actually a thousand yuan in the passbook!
You know, this is a huge sum of money in this era.
Based on Qi Jiayi's salary level, it should be impossible for him to save so much money.
Qi Jiayi replied calmly: "Most of it is bonus, and a small part is salary."
He would send one-third of his salary back home every month, and he had nowhere to spend the rest of the money. Apart from occasionally buying something for Xia Xing'er and her daughter and sending it back, he had basically no other expenses.
Yuan Wei didn't expect that the bonus given by the army at this time would be so high.
She couldn't help but wonder, are all the missions Qi Jiayi carries out highly dangerous?
Otherwise, how could the prize be so generous?
Qi Jiayi seemed to see through her thoughts and comforted her: "Don't worry, although the mission I am carrying out is a little dangerous, I will protect myself."
He paused, then continued, "Take this money, it should be enough to build a house."
It’s more than enough, it’s more than enough to build three brick and tile houses.
But Yuan Wei didn't want to build a house at all, so she said, "Put it aside for now and use it when needed."
Qi Jiayi nodded, he understood what Yuan Wei meant.
He wanted to tell her that they were rich enough and didn't need to worry about the meager family property, let alone feel dissatisfied or angry because of the small share they got.
Yuan Wei covered Qi Jiayi's cheeks with both hands and rubbed them hard: "Am I so stingy?"
Qi Jiayi let her hands play around, hugged Yuan Wei's slender waist, and said lovingly: "Of course not, my Wei'er is the most generous!"
The mellow scent of Qi Jiayi hit Yuan Wei in the face, reminding her of the chaotic night last night, and her face suddenly flushed.
She quickly put down her hands and tried to break free from Qi Jiayi's arms.
"Let go, aren't we going to my eldest sister's house?"
However, Qi Jiayi not only did not let go, but instead pulled Yuan Wei tightly into his arms, whispering: "Let me hug you again."
Yuan Wei had no choice but to throw herself into his arms and gradually relaxed.
Forget it, since he wants to hug me, let him do it.
Qi Jiayi and Yuan Wei went to visit Qi Zhaodi's home together, but they were treated with politeness and alienation.
When they left, they were also given a polite farewell.
Yuan Wei looked at Qi Jiayi, her eyes full of worry.
This doesn't seem like her elder sister at all. She treats him more coldly than an ordinary relative.
"Don't worry, I'm fine. Actually, there's never been any deep affection between us, it's just that Mom can't let it go."
Qi Jiayi gently took Yuan Wei's hand and walked forward slowly.
"Since we're here, let's go to the supply and marketing cooperative."
Halfway through the journey, Yuan Wei suddenly stopped, reached out and took Qi Jiayi's arm and said, "Let's go find Zhang Xiang."
In fact, we were supposed to take the photo on the day we got our marriage certificate, but the photo studio happened to be closed that day.
Yuan Wei pulled Qi Jiayi into the photo studio, and they both sat in front of the camera. The photographer asked them to sit closer, and Yuan Wei immediately did so, but Qi Jiayi seemed a little restrained and uncomfortable.
Yuan Wei looked at Qi Jiayi's nervous expression and couldn't help laughing. Then she patted his shoulder gently and comforted him, "Don't be nervous, relax."
But no matter what Yuan Wei said, Qi Jiayi just couldn't let go. Yuan Wei finally gave him an ultimatum: "If you continue like this, I will take the photo myself."
After hearing this, Qi Jiayi quickly adjusted his state. He took a deep breath and tried to relax himself.
"Okay, that's it, come closer." The cameraman was very happy. It had been a long time since he saw such an eye-catching couple.
It’s a pity that they are unwilling to put the photos in the photo studio for publicity, otherwise how many new people can they attract?
Coming out of the photo studio, Yuan Wei was walking happily, when suddenly, her eyes were attracted by the person in front of her.
On the street not far away, two people were walking towards them. One of them was Song Mengqiu, and the person walking side by side with her was actually... Lin Laosi!
Song Mengqiu didn't seem to notice Yuan Wei's presence and continued talking with Lin Laosi.
She didn't end up going out with Lin Laosi yesterday, and they didn't dare to take her away by force.
Today, she followed Zhang Shiling out because Lin Laosi told her that Zhang Shiling wanted to see her for something.
Unexpectedly, it was an excuse that Lin Laosi made up to deceive her.
"I'm warning you, don't bother me anymore, or I'll call the police." Song Mengqiu glared at Lin Laosi and warned him.
Lin Lao Si smiled indifferently and said, "Don't say that. Do you think I'm not good enough? I'm the only one who would want a fickle woman like you."
Hearing this, Song Mengqiu's face turned pale with anger. She pointed a trembling finger at Lin Laosi and said angrily: "Who did you call fickle? You are slandering me, you...you..."
However, Lin Laosi completely ignored her anger and warnings. Instead, he smiled and tried to reach out and hold her hand, but Song Mengqiu dodged it nimbly.
Song Mengqiu shouted angrily: "What are you doing?!"
Lin Laosi, however, still approached Song Mengqiu with a playful smile and continued to say provocatively, "Why don't you go to the Victory Brigade and hear what those people say about you?"
Song Mengqiu bit her lips tightly and stared at Lin Laosi fiercely, her heart filled with humiliation and anger.
Seeing this, Lin Lao Si continued to say smugly, "You! Your reputation in the village is so bad that it's ruined. Who do you think would want you?"
Song Mengqiu felt a pain in her heart and tears almost burst out.
She gritted her teeth, trying hard not to let the tears fall, and glared at Lin Laosi with a firm and hateful look, retorting: "It's none of your business who wants me to leave. Anyway, that person will definitely not be you."
After saying that, she turned and left angrily.
After walking a few steps, Song Mengqiu turned around and said quietly, "Your debt has been repaid. Don't come looking for me in the future, or I will report you to the Youth League Office and accuse you of coercing me."
After saying that, Song Mengqiu no longer paid any attention to Lin Laosi and turned away.
At this point she still didn't know that these people were plotting against her, so she had lived two lives in vain.
Thinking about what Zhang Shiling said before, Yuan Wei was a tough guy, it must be that they have something on Yuan Wei, so they are now listening to Yuan Wei's orders and causing trouble for her.
"Yuan Wei!"
Song Meng murmured Yuan Wei's name angrily.
You can get divorced even if you’re married, just wait and see.
