Forced to marry a disabled man in the countryside? I'll repay you tenfold!

Isn't all of this just too much of a coincidence?

However, whether it was a coincidence or not, since he was going to go to the countryside, he had to make some preparations.

"Comrade Su Wanqing, you pack first. There's a lot to take. I'll go borrow some tools to make a cart and then push the things back from the truck."

"it is good."

So the two of them didn't make a fuss. Zhou Yanshen went out first, and when he came back, he was pushing a cart with a high pile of everything they had bought at the department store that day.

After putting his things down, Zhou Yanshen went out again, and no one knew where he went.

"So, the things you leave behind are things you can take with you? Yeah, enamel mugs, small iron pots, enamel bowls, aluminum lunch boxes, you have to take all of those."

"Pack up all the military-style padded jackets, and also bring the bedding and blankets."

"The grain is hidden inside, with a little left outside as a decoy."

"Most of the department store's items are hidden in the space."

Su Wanqing didn't have time to pay attention to Zhou's mother. Instead, she packed up the remaining things she could take with her, and secretly reduced the amount of things and put them into her space. By the early morning, she had compressed the things into seven large bags.

Zhou Yanshen has not returned yet.

Su Wanqing then made several flatbreads with unleavened dough, boiled twenty eggs, wrapped them in a soft cloth, boiled salted peanuts, drained them, and put them in a cloth bag. She put the pickled vegetables and preserved vegetables she had packed back into a large enamel lunchbox, and packed the other cooked food she had packed back into several portions. She put the steamed buns in a gauze bag and the rice in the lunchbox, preparing three days' worth of meals.

Pour the soy milk from yesterday's state-run restaurant into a new thermos, and put the boiled rock sugar water into a military water bottle.

During this period, I also used today's tenfold return to turn one serving of braised chicken into ten servings of braised chicken! Tomorrow and the day after, I will also return the braised beef, fried fish, and braised pork tenfold.

When you go to the countryside, you won't have to worry about not having good food!

If she can't openly offer it, Su Wanqing can just eat it secretly.

With all the food prepared, Su Wanqing hadn't even had time to sleep when Zhou Yanshen finally returned, looking travel-worn, his body still warm and his nose slightly sweaty.

He pulled Su Wanqing into the small room for the first time and took out something hard from his pants.

"Keep this for you."

Su Wanqing was somewhat surprised and was about to ask when Zhou Yanshen covered her mouth, saying, "Don't ask where they came from. These are all hard currency for our trip to the countryside. Keep them safe."

Zhou Yanshen brought not only some small yellow croakers, but also some "Yuan Shikai silver dollars," as well as a thick stack of universal national grain coupons and cloth coupons.

To be honest, these things are probably more useful over there than money.

Su Wanqing was genuinely pleasantly surprised. In the original story, the original owner and Zhou's mother argued until almost dawn, so Zhou Yanshen didn't have time to gather these things.

Su Wanqing nodded. "Okay, I won't ask. You can rest assured that these things are safe with me." She sewed herself an underwear pocket overnight, one in the front and one in the back.

He stuffed the gold and silver coins into his space, and sewed the cloth coupons and money onto his undergarments, because these would take up too much space.

By the time all these preparations were complete, it was already dawn.

"Is everything packed?" Zhou Yanshen only had time to change into ordinary clothes and brought a few other clothes.

Su Wanqing nodded, pointing to the large and small bags of luggage that filled half the room, as well as a large first-aid kit. "Everything is packed."

Just before they were about to leave, Zhou Yanshen was dumbfounded, and Su Wanqing was dumbfounded as well.

At the entrance, piles of luggage of various sizes, packed by Zhou's mother, were visible. Zhou's mother, dressed in a well-fitting dark cheongsam, sat elegantly to one side.

"Yan Shen, try to get Mom's luggage along. Didn't the political commissar say we're allowed to bring more luggage?"

So you call this luggage?

Su Wanqing stared at the camphor wood chest, which was already filled with various cheongsams, high heels, and silk scarves. It even contained a gramophone, a large bathtub, a porcelain teapot with a handle, and fine porcelain teacups...

Su Wanqing had a headache. In the original story, Zhou's mother didn't have time to pack all this luggage. Now, Zhou's mother had packed a bunch of useless stuff.

Zhou Yanshen frowned. "Mom, we're going to the countryside for labor reform, not to drink tea and listen to music. And look, we have so much stuff to bring. You can't possibly bring all this stuff on the train." He pointed to the even more exaggerated pile of luggage inside.

Zhou's mother glanced at the things with disdain. "Why bring so many tattered cotton-padded coats and green rubber shoes? I'm not used to your stuff. How am I supposed to take a bath in the countryside without this big tub?"

As she spoke, she suddenly burst into tears, "From childhood to adulthood, when have I never been waited on hand and foot? Now I'm being forced to go to the countryside to suffer, and I can bear it, but do I have to live like those peasants? What's the point of living like this? I'd rather die!"

That wicked mother-in-law is really something!

Su Wanqing deftly picked up her medical kit, slung a large basket over her shoulder, carried two large water bottles, and held various snacks in her hands. Before leaving, she gave Zhou Yanshen an understanding yet weary smile.

"Comrade Yanshen, there's too much stuff. I'll take these and wait for you at the intersection ahead. As for the rest of the things we bought yesterday, don't force yourself if you really can't carry them."

After saying that, he left without looking back.

She wouldn't play the villain. In the end, it would be a conflict between her and her wicked mother-in-law, which would only put Zhou Yanshen in a difficult position. She would shift the blame to Zhou Yanshen and make it a problem between him and his mother.

Zhou Yanshen pursed his lips. How could he possibly leave behind the things his wife had worked so hard to prepare?

Besides, she shouldn't have suffered like this; she was dragged into this undeserved misfortune because of him. Now, not only does she not resent him, but she has also organized her things neatly and carefully prepared food for the journey, showing thoughtfulness.

Then compare that to your own mother's unreasonable demands...

Zhou Yanshen turned around and tied the remaining packages to the cart, saying as he did so:

"Mom, it's better for you to keep your own wishes safe. Take as much as you can. I still need to take some things that I'll need to the countryside. Also..."

He paused, then said seriously, "Stop talking to Comrade Wanqing about serving others. She is your daughter-in-law. Please treat her the same way you treat me, otherwise it will only be your son who suffers."

After Zhou Yanshen finished speaking, he packed everything onto the cart and hurriedly went to catch up with Su Wanqing. He couldn't let his wife carry so many things.

"Hey! You ingrate! How could I possibly carry this by myself? I'm only doing this so you can have an easier time!" Before Zhou's mother could finish speaking, she had already disappeared. Zhou stomped her foot and finally followed behind, carrying the box, gramophone, and handbag, cursing all the while.

After squeezing onto the crowded green train and finding a hard seat, Zhou Yanshen stuffed his large bundle onto the luggage rack and the rest under the seat, finally settling down.
