The reborn peasant girl has space for farming

Chapter 163 Letter

The sweet potatoes in the field have all been finished, and Bai Meixi has no worries. Except for the beginning, she watered them once during the day and night, and Yao Jiusheng always appeared by her side every time to accompany her. Water.Bai Meixi would always reward him with a big steamed bun afterwards, and Yao Jiusheng was so satisfied after eating it.

Bai Meixi didn't have anything to do that day. When she was alone in the room, she felt particularly bored and her heart felt empty.Especially when I saw the only wedding photo of her and Cheng Haiyi of this era hanging on the bedside, I felt even more sad.

Counting on his fingers, it has been almost ten days since Cheng Haiyi returned to the army.In the past ten days, she has been busy with things at home and in the fields.

When I think of Cheng Haiyi, the longing in my heart almost overflows.

Bai Meixi thought to herself that she could write a letter to Cheng Haiyi to express her pain of lovesickness!In this era, communication equipment is underdeveloped. There are no phones, no computers, no calls or video calls, and the only way to contact us is to write letters.

Bai Meixi thought so in her mind, so she did so, found some letter paper, and started to write a letter to Cheng Haiyi.

I spread the letter paper on the table and was about to put down the pen, but for a moment I didn't know how to start.

Honey?
Husband?

Harney?

All of these titles seemed a little too outrageous.

Bai Meixi thought for a moment and finally wrote.

Dear Comrade Cheng Haiyi:

Bai Meixi looked at this line of words and thought to herself, is this okay?In this day and age, isn't that what people call each other more affectionately?Just writing these three words "dear" seems a little too untraditional.

Bai Meixi nodded with satisfaction and began to continue writing.

It has been more than ten days since you left me. I wonder how your life is in the army. Do you miss me?

I am living a good life at home. My parents and family are very good to me. You can work peacefully in the army and don't have to worry about me.I went to Uncle Cheng Sanbo a few days ago and asked him for a piece of land. Everyone in our family has land, and I can't just be a freeloader.

Cheng Sanbo was very generous and gave me the land on the hill behind our house.Although it is a bit difficult to cultivate, I am very satisfied.Now I have cultivated all the land.

Speaking of land reclamation, I have something interesting to tell you!My sister-in-law felt that the land on the back mountain was too rocky and it was impossible to grow crops. She didn't believe me and even made a bet with me.If I grow sweet potatoes, my sister-in-law can only eat sweet potatoes and not eat for free!Haha, am I going a little too far?

However, if it doesn't grow, I will give my sister-in-law 20 yuan to buy the clothes she likes.If you put it this way, it's quite fair, right?
Hai Yi, don't worry, I didn't mean to go against my sister-in-law, I just wanted to have some fun with her.My sister-in-law is still a child and I won’t argue with her.

After Bai Meixi finished writing this sentence, she bit her nose and looked at it, feeling that it seemed a little inappropriate to write this sentence.Will this make Cheng Haiyi think that she is really a petty person?

Bai Meixi thought to herself, and finally used an eraser to erase the sentence "My sister-in-law is still a child, I won't argue with her."Sometimes, explanation is just a cover-up, and saying too much makes it look bad.

Bai Meixi continued to write:
In recent days, the mountains have been cultivated and sweet potato seedlings have been planted.I met a child named Yao Jiusheng on the mountain. Everyone in the village was wary of him, but I thought he was quite cute, and the child was pitiful. I felt a little sorry for him.This child also helped me a lot in the matter of land reclamation!

Everything is going well at home. Dad and the eldest and second brothers are working as usual to earn work points. Tie Zhu has always learned well from the master bricklayer and is very attentive. You don't have to worry about him.I get along very well with my eldest sister-in-law and my second sister-in-law. My eldest sister-in-law is very diligent. When I work, she always comes over to help me.

Hai Yi, do you know?I just discovered now that my second sister-in-law has such good tailoring skills. When I have nothing to do, I will learn to knit sweaters from her. This kind of delicate work is a bit troublesome, but I learned it very hard... …Because, I don’t want to be idle. As long as I am idle, I will miss you very much.

Look, I got off topic while talking.The most important thing I want to tell you is that my mother's condition is slowly improving. Sometimes she can go for a walk and get some air in the yard.I believe that if this continues, it won’t be long before our mother can go to the ground and return to her former lively self.

Hai Yi, having said all that, how are you in the army?You have to take care of yourself one by one.

Don't read!

Missing your wife: Xiaomei.

Bai Meixi ended up with his wife.

Looking at this full piece of paper, it is densely packed with all my thoughts about Cheng Haiyi.This was a relatively traditional era, and she couldn't write too deeply, lest Cheng Haiyi would be criticized if the letter was discovered.

And she knew that Cheng Haiyi was alone and what he missed most was everyone in his family.Bai Meixi also told Cheng Haiyi everything about her family in detail, so that he could rest assured about everything at home.

As long as Cheng Haiyi has nothing to worry about, he will not be distracted in the army, and if he is not distracted, the whole person will become safer.

Bai Meixi put down her pen and read the letter from beginning to end.After reviewing it, she folded the letter.

To be honest, she didn't really write letters in the era she lived in.It can be said that this is the first letter in her life and the first letter written to the person she loves.

In this backward era, she could only use this backward way to communicate with her separated husband.

Bai Meixi stuffed the written letter into the envelope and glued it with glue.

I went to Cheng's mother's room and said to Cheng's mother: "Mom, I'm going out."

"Where are you going at this time?" Cheng's mother asked doubtfully.

"I wrote a letter to Hai Yi and went to the post office to mail it." Bai Meixi explained.

When Cheng's mother heard that the letter was sent to Cheng Haiyi, she quickly responded: "Then go quickly! Be careful on the road."

As soon as Bai Meixi came out of her mother's room, she was stopped by her fifth brother.He walked up to Bai Meixi and asked in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, are you going to send a letter to my brother?"

Bai Meixi nodded and replied: "Yes, are you bringing something?"

The fifth brother nodded and said, "Sister-in-law, can you wait for me? I also want you to send me a letter."

Bai Meixi nodded happily and responded: "Okay, then I'll wait for you."

The fifth brother responded with a look of joy and ran back to his room as fast as he could.
