Courtyard houses: Those who are capable are rewarded, and many children bring many blessings.

Su Ting absolutely hated this deputy commander; he was a lecherous old man. If she didn't have some connections, she would have been taken advantage of by this old lecher long ago.

"Hey, have you guys noticed? Ever since Su Ting's husband was sent to the countryside, he's become more and more radiant in the past six months. His skin is better, and his figure is more beautiful." The women at the back of the line began to whisper among themselves.

"Hehe, we've all been there, everyone understands..."

Su Ting, unable to bear it any longer, turned her head and said, "You guys are so boring, is it interesting? Liu Yanhong, do you think I'm like you, with such a loose belt?"

And you, Jin Qiaozui, if you like Deputy Regiment Commander Wang, why don't you go for it? Stop gossiping about me behind my back!

Finally, he glared at Deputy Commander Wang behind him, annoyed, and said, "Please have some self-respect. If you dare to do this again, don't blame me for reporting you to the General Labor Union! Humph!"

Deputy Regiment Commander Wang forced a smile and said, "I meant well and showed you concern, but it's made you sick!"

"I don't care. Just stay away from me from now on, thank you!"

After filling the thermos, Su Wan returned to her office with a gloomy face and poured a jar of jasmine tea into it.

Su Ting could handle things at work, but she blushed a little when she thought about what her own daughter had said this morning.

With limited resources at home, I can't even have my daughter sleep in a separate room. I can't bear to break up with Niu Dazhuang, it's a real headache!

That day, Qin Huairu asked Ningru to look after Xiaodang while she and Yueru went to clean the rented house. They bought a stove and brought it over to warm up the house so it wouldn't be too cold when they moved in.

They also had to heat up the kang (heated brick bed), and replace the window paper... After three days of work, the two sisters finally moved in.

"Sis, it's not bad, the room is small but warm. We finally have our own little space."

"It's rented, and Dazhuang rented it for us. What a dream! If you want your own house, you have to go to work. Your company will provide housing."

"I want to go too. I even talked to Dazhuang about it, and he said he could support me and I wouldn't have to work."

"Oh! Silly sister, he only cares about you now. I don't feel at ease knowing we're always being supported by a man."

"Jia Dongxu used to like me a lot, but look at him now, he's already seeing other women!"

"You haven't let him touch you for over six months, he's bound to find other ways!"

"You make it sound so easy. After that donkey-like Dazhuang messed things up, I had absolutely no interest in Jia Dongxu. It's better that we're divorced now; it saves me from feeling awkward!"

Qin Yueru hugged her arm and said coquettishly, "Sister, I never dreamed that we two sisters would actually be together... By the way, that night, why did Dazhuang seem so interested in you? The way he looked at you was different." The two sisters even did a post-coital review.

Before they knew it, the year was almost over, and Niu Dazhuang's company had given them a holiday. Niu Dazhuang and his colleagues didn't rush back. They spent two days working non-stop before finally dragging their exhausted bodies back to Beijing.

Although it was very enjoyable, there was still a regret. Su Wan absolutely refused to play with them, and even Niu Dazhuang's family discipline was used, but it still didn't work.

Niu Dazhuang returned to Beijing and first went to the Ye family to see Ye Chunmei, who was about to give birth, and also to scratch Ye Chunlan's itch.

We're just waiting for the Chinese New Year!

As if on cue, the weather turned into the heaviest snowfall of the winter on the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month.

Having learned from his experience of being sweltering this summer, Niu Dazhuang had something to do. He dug out the leather jacket, leather pants, and leather hat he wore while hunting, gathered his three brothers, and headed to the ruins of the Old Summer Palace in the north.

They were chiseling ice blocks and collecting clean snow. They were having a great time.

Niu Dazhuang's personal space has this function: hot things put in will still be hot when taken out, no matter how long they are left. Snow and ice are the same; whatever you put in, you take out exactly the same. This space should be an absolutely static space.

The four of them collected ice and snow for two days, and then it was the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month.

In the past two days, we've chipped off thirty-six blocks of ice, each over a meter long and ten centimeters thick. There's even more snow; in terms of piles, there are over sixty snowdrifts, each about a meter tall and two meters in diameter.

"Big Brother, why are we making so much ice?" Big Bear asked on the way back.

"I'm afraid you'll get sick from being idle, so I'm leading you to exercise."

"Tch, do you think we're three-year-olds? Fine, don't tell us then."

"I'll come fishing tomorrow, okay?"

"That doesn't make sense either. Why break the ice today if we're going fishing tomorrow?"

"You talk too much. Just do what I tell you to do. Would I cheat you guys? You still want to drink tonight, okay?"

"Hehe, of course we want to!" the three brothers answered in unison.

"If you want a drink, don't ask so many questions."

"oh!"

That evening, Niu Dazhuang made another trip and uploaded all the results of his two days' work to his online space. By the time he got home, it was already past eight o'clock.

"Dazhuang, go and call Third Sister again. We're all going to have New Year's Eve dinner at Uncle's. Third Sister isn't going, and neither is Seventh Brother."

"You've said it several times already, if they don't want to go, then they don't have to go!"

"That won't do. I said it, and you're not going to go and call them? That's disheartening!"

"Alright, alright, I'll go see what's going on!" After saying that, Niu Dazhuang put on his dog-skin hat and went out. Fortunately, the two houses were not far apart, only a ten-minute walk.

Although it was just a crescent moon, there was still no need to use a flashlight to go out. With a creak, Qin Yueru opened the door: "Why are you here at this hour? We've all gone to bed."

Niu Dazhuang casually picked the man up.

"The gate isn't closed yet."

Niu Dazhuang closed the door with his heel, and Qin Yueru stretched out her arms to lock the door, then hugged Niu Dazhuang's neck.

As I lifted the cotton curtain, a waft of hot air escaped.

"You've made this little house quite warm! Check the chimney in the morning, make sure it's not clogged!" At this moment, Qin Huairu walked out of the inner room, her clothes open and her body trembling.

"Keep your voices down, Xiao Dang has just been put to sleep."

Niu Dazhuang couldn't take his eyes off Qin Huairu's chest, and Qin Yueru even got jealous: "Hmph! Keep looking, or you'll get so fixated on it."

Niu Dazhuang put the person down, pulled up a stool and sat in front of the stove, and said in a teasing tone, "Auntie, what's going on? Xueru has told me several times already, and you still made me come all this way."

Qin Huairu chimed in, "My child's uncle, how could I possibly go? How would you and the old man introduce me?"

"Aren't you getting a divorce now?"

"It's precisely because I'm divorced that I feel it's not a good fit!"

"I don't care. In my eyes, all four of you sisters are the same!"

"I know you don't care, but I can't not care! Alright, I appreciate your kindness! If you want to sleep here tonight, we'll go to the kang (heated brick bed). If you don't want to sleep here, you should go back home right away."

"Hey! You want to get rid of your man? You're asking for it!"

Qin Huairu straightened her back and moved closer to Niu Dazhuang: "Come on, it's not certain who will take care of whom."

"Are you trying to murder your husband? Are you trying to suffocate me?"
