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

"Old Li, those two young guys under you are really something! They were out at night... uh... having a wild game, and then they discovered that someone was stealing oil from our factory. The lads even took their clothes off and still stood up for what's right! I saw it all clearly when I came out!"

Party Secretary Li looked shocked: "What? Which young man from our regiment? So... fierce? No wonder they ran so far. Last year I caught a few couples in the wheat fields by the roadside, they crushed the wheat ears, and I scolded them and sent them away! Did they change locations this year? And run so far away?"

Zhang Ronghua chuckled, "No wonder! Look, it's these two, Zhou Yanshen and Su Wanqing. Don't speak ill of them, you should praise them!"

When Secretary Li saw the banner and the names on the list, his expression immediately turned very strange. He suppressed a laugh and asked Liu Shuqing to call Zhou Yanshen and Su Wanqing over.

So when Su Wanqing and Zhou Yanshen were inexplicably summoned to the command post, they saw Secretary Li, who was trying desperately to hold back his laughter, and Liu Shuqing, who was also trying to suppress his laughter and whose face was flushed. Both of them were looking at them with an extremely strange and meaningful gaze.

Su Wanqing's heart skipped a beat; she had no idea what had happened.

It wasn't until Secretary Li solemnly took out the banner, cleared his throat, loudly read out the words on it, and then glanced at them that Su Wanqing's face instantly turned bright red!

Done!

Judging from Secretary Li's expression, Zhang Ronghua from the processing plant must have said something to him! No! Secretary Li, let me explain! It's not what you think!

She just went to scout out a place with Zhou Yanshen, how could she have misunderstood so much? She hasn't even gotten her hands on that good guy, Zhou Yanshen, yet!

Secretary Li, trying to keep a straight face, walked up to Zhou Yanshen, patted him heavily on the shoulder, and spoke with a tone that was both teasing and understanding:

"Young man, you're young and energetic, I understand... but don't go that far next time, it's not safe."

He then looked at Su Wanqing with concern and tentatively asked, "Is it... that your home is too small? Or is it inconvenient? Once the quota for the oyster mushroom experimental site is officially allocated, we'll definitely need to build a few management offices and dormitories next to the experimental site. Or... could we apply for a larger one for you while we're at it?"

Su Wanqing: "!!!" She wanted to crawl into a hole in the ground!

Zhou Yanshen was so embarrassed that he dug his toes into the ground, but he had to maintain a serious expression.

"Thank you for your concern, Secretary Li. Wanqing and I have enough room, but my mother shares a room with us, separated only by a thin wall, which is sometimes...inconvenient. Could you perhaps apply for a separate room for my mother?"

Su Wanqing looked up at Zhou Yanshen in shock, never expecting him to say such a thing in front of Secretary Li and Liu Shuqing!

Zhou Yanshen felt her gaze and quietly grasped her hand with his large, steady hand.

Good, good, good, now they're really in deep trouble!

Zhou Yanshen's words were practically a confirmation—it was because their mother lived together and it was inconvenient for them to "do things," so the young couple couldn't hold back and went so far away at night to have sex in the wild!

Secretary Li's face showed a look of understanding. "Ahem... I see. Indeed, regarding Old Mrs. Zhou's situation... although according to custom, the families of those sent down to the countryside usually live with their children, your family's situation is special. So, when the oyster mushroom experimental site is officially approved and the supporting housing is built, I will specially approve a room for your mother to have alone! Ahem... for these days, you... just make do for now."

Su Wanqing felt her face burning and kept staring at her toes. Although she was sometimes very open, she was also very reserved at other times.

Zhou Yanshen's cold face didn't reveal much of his expression. "Secretary Li, Comrade Wanqing is sensitive about her reputation. Please, you and Secretary Liu, be lenient with her about this matter. Please don't let it get out; it will have a bad impact on her."

Party Secretary Li immediately patted his chest and assured him, "Don't worry! Only a few of us know about this, and we'll keep it a secret!"

As the two parted, Party Secretary Li coughed, suppressing a laugh, and said, "Hey, Yan Shen, you absolutely mustn't go out and do any more of that stuff lately! The autumn harvest is just around the corner, the fields are packed with people working from dawn till dusk, it would be such a bad impression if someone saw you like that!"

Su Wanqing: "..." She was powerless to defend herself.

Zhou Yanshen looked serious, as if he were receiving an important mission: "Secretary Li, rest assured, we will definitely not go out again tonight."

·

Su Wanqing didn't even know how she got home. As soon as she entered, Zhou Yanshen immediately closed the door, turned to face her,

"I'm sorry, Comrade Wanqing. I just went along with it and admitted it because I thought it was an opportunity to apply for another room for my mother. Once she moves out, we'll have more space, and she'll be more comfortable. If you feel uncomfortable about it or that it has damaged your reputation, you can hit me a few times to vent your anger."

He paused, his face apologetic: "On my way back, I was thinking that I shouldn't have used your reputation for this, since we weren't even thinking about it last night..."

He swore that what he really wanted wasn't convenience for sex, but rather to separate his mother from them, so that his mother wouldn't always have to pressure Su Wanqing as an elder, and she could be more at ease.

Su Wanqing was both annoyed and amused.

She shook off Zhou Yanshen's hand, sat on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed), and turned her head away, ignoring him.

To be fair, Zhou Yanshen is truly a talented individual! He actually managed to admit this "misunderstanding" to Secretary Li.

...but it did indeed bring some benefits to everyone.

If it weren't for this incident, Zhou's mother would probably still be crammed into this cubicle with them, having to sneak around and be extremely careful if she wanted to do anything at night.

Moreover, if we miss this opportunity, even if we want Zhou's mother to move out in the future, she will most likely have to live with other people, which Zhou's mother will be very unhappy about. Unlike now, we can directly apply for a separate brick house!

But! The price is just too shameful!

Doesn't this mean she's admitting to the organization that she and Zhou Yanshen went out for sex because it was "inconvenient" at home?!

God knows, she and Zhou Yanshen have never even had a proper kiss...

Seeing that Su Wanqing was still somewhat angry, Zhou Yanshen, with his tall figure of 1.85 meters, seemed a little at a loss.

He pursed his thin lips, walked over, and took Su Wanqing's hand again, his voice low and deep: "I'm sorry, Comrade Su Wanqing, it was my oversight and my methods were inappropriate. I am willing to accept any punishment."

Su Wanqing suddenly turned around, hooked her arm around his neck, and forced him to lower his head.

A hint of surprise flashed in the man's eyes as he looked at the woman so close to him, her eyes sparkling. He tried his best to remain calm, but his heart was pounding like a drum.

What do you want to do, wife?
