When Qin's mother heard that she had to go back, she refused. She had come all this way, and now she was going back empty-handed without accomplishing anything.

Besides, these train tickets aren't cheap.

Isn't it just about adapting?

She refused to believe she couldn't adapt; after all, she was never going back.

Shen Jingyue had no idea what Qin's mother was planning; she had already had a good sleep in the space.

After changing the baby's diaper and feeding the baby, I took the baby out of the room.

Seeing that it was still early, and that she was also out of confinement, she could take the baby out for a stroll.

Shen Jingyue put the child in the stroller he had been sitting in.

Because the sun is strong outside, it's bad for a child's eyes to be exposed to the sun while lying down.

She even put a small canopy on top of the car.

He had Qin Xiang'an do these things when he had nothing else to do, and they were easy to disassemble.

Once everything was ready, she took the child out in a stroller.

It was Xiao Beichen's first time out, and his eyes were constantly darting around curiously, looking at everything.

As I passed by Sister Wang's house, I saw her washing clothes in the yard.

She pushed the child inside.

"Sister Wang, are you doing laundry?"

When Sister Wang heard the sound, she looked up and saw Sister Shen coming out with her child.

"Oh my, Shen, are you out of confinement?"

"Yes, nothing much, so I just brought the kids out for a walk."

"Also, to thank Sister Wang for all her help, we're having dinner at our house tonight. Sister Wang, you absolutely must come! Bring your kids too, so we can all have a good time together."

"Sure, I'll definitely go."

Sister Wang didn't refuse and happily agreed.

Remembering something, she dried her hands and said with a smile, "By the way, Sister Shen, do you still have those face creams you gave me before?"

"Yes, Sister Wang, have you finished those two bottles?"

Those two bottles should be enough for half a year. I hope Sister Wang won't use them all up in just one month.

"No way, I'm still using this bottle."

"Look, my face is much whiter now, my skin is much better, and even the spots on my face have faded a bit."

"Well, a couple of days ago, some of my older sisters-in-law noticed that my skin looked better and asked me what I was wearing. I told them it was a gift from you."

"They said they wanted it too, but don't worry, they won't take it for free. They'll pay whatever it costs."

She spoke the last sentence very softly, so softly that only the two of them could hear it.

This face cream is really effective; the changes in her face are quite noticeable. So when the other women saw how much she had changed, they wanted the same face cream too.

Women love beauty, whether it's applying makeup or wearing clothes. As long as they have the money, they certainly don't want to compromise their appearance.

Besides, these days, as long as you don't buy or sell things on the black market, no one cares if you make small things privately to exchange for money or other goods.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have said this to Shen Meizi.

And ever since she started using that face cream, her boyfriend said she looked fairer and prettier a few days ago.

She was also thinking of asking Shen Meizi to buy a couple more bottles to keep on hand.

Although Ms. Shen had said before that I could ask her for the rest when I was done using it, it's not appropriate to keep taking other people's things.

This stuff is so effective, it must be hard to make, she couldn't possibly accept it.

If Shen Meizi can sell this privately, then she can buy a few bottles too.

"I only have a few bottles on hand, that's not a lot."

She made this as a gift for Sister Wang and Sister Lu to thank them for their kindness, and kept the rest for herself.

I never thought I could use this to make money.

"Then you can make more. There are so many women in this residential compound; they must all want some."

"Let me think about it first, and then I'll talk to Sister Wang about it."

"Okay, then think about it carefully." Sister Wang didn't rush her.

Shen Jingyue stayed at Sister Wang's place for a while, and seeing that she still had a lot of clothes to wash, she didn't disturb her.

So we went to Sister-in-law Lu's house.

She arrived at an inopportune time; Sister-in-law Lu wasn't home, and the doors were locked.

She could only take the child for a walk around the residential compound.

The women in the family compound also gathered around when they saw her.

"Oh my, Comrade Shen, are you out of confinement after giving birth?"

A young woman came over and saw little Xiao Beichen lying in the stroller, staring at her with his round eyes. She couldn't be more delighted.

"Sister-in-law, are you going to the field to pick vegetables?"

Shen Jingyue had met her before, but she had forgotten which family's sister-in-law she was.

Seeing that she was carrying a basket filled with fresh green vegetables, I guessed that this woman must have just come back from the fields.

"Yes, I picked some vegetables to make lunch. Look at this child, he's so chubby and healthy thanks to your care. He looks just like your Deputy Regiment Commander Qin."

This child is so adorable, all fair and cute, just so endearing!

"Really? I didn't really notice that."

Shen Jingyue genuinely couldn't tell that the child resembled Qin Xiang'an; perhaps he was too young and hadn't fully developed yet.

Maybe it's because I see it so often that I don't realize it.

"It really does look quite similar. By the way, how did you get this stroller? You push the child around without even carrying him. It's so convenient and effortless."

She had heard that when she was in postpartum confinement, Deputy Regiment Commander Qin did all the work, from changing the baby's diapers and washing clothes to cooking.

She was incredibly envious; she never imagined that Deputy Regiment Commander Qin, who always had a cold expression, would treat his wife so well after they got married.

"I had Uncle Daji, a carpenter from a nearby village, make this. I was thinking of using it to push the child around so I wouldn't have to carry him around so much."

This baby is much fatter than when she was born; my arms get sore from holding her for too long now.

Not to mention holding the child the whole time.

"So that's how it is. I must say, this car is really well made."

Remembering something else, she glanced around; there wasn't much of anyone there. She hesitated before speaking:

"By the way, Comrade Shen, I heard from Sister Wang that you gave her two bottles of face cream, and that you made them yourself. I wonder if you have any more? Could I exchange them for money?"

Sister Wang's face has become much whiter and she looks much better now; her skin doesn't feel rough to the touch.

She also loves beauty and wants to make her face look better.

Shen Jingyue was surprised that her sister-in-law wanted some too. She smiled and said, "I made all of those myself, so there aren't many. Let's do it next time. I'll make more and let you know then."

"Okay, then I'll be waiting for your good news. My house is just up ahead, and my husband is Deputy Battalion Commander Qian."

"Okay, I'll definitely let Sister Qian know when I'm done."

"Then I'll wait for your good news. I won't disturb you while you're taking the kids for a walk. I'm going home to cook now."

Sister Qian happily carried her vegetable basket home.

Shen Jingyue took the child for a walk, and when she returned, Sister-in-law Lu happened to be back. She told her about coming to her house for dinner that evening, and then she went back too.
