Rich in the 70s: I Made a Rugged Veteran a Millionaire novel Chapter 215

Chapter 215: Chapter 215: Returning to the Countryside

Shen Que didn’t ask any probing questions.

It’s likely Shen Xing encountered something difficult to speak about.

Little boys care about their pride; Shen Que understands that.

So this topic was deliberately sidetracked by everyone.

Jiang Cheng took the opportunity to talk about the house.

"I want to open a back door in the room I’m currently living in, so I can connect the two houses together."

Shen Que listened and said, "Sure, I can handle that for you. While I’m at it, I’ll also fix the smoke vents for the adjacent room. Let’s set up a stove, and repair the tables, chairs, and benches inside. We can replace anything that’s unusable."

"That’s perfect. Factory Director Fang said he’d give me fabric for curtains and blankets."

"Director Lu even told me that the furniture factory will provide furniture, the ceramics factory will cover pots and pans, the paper mill will give me paper to line the walls, and the bamboo weaving factory is preparing boxes and some small sewing tools for me."

Upon hearing this, Shen Que asked with a strange expression, "Shouldn’t our mechanical factory also make a contribution?"

Jiang Cheng raised her brows and teased, "What else can your mechanical factory give me besides a director?"

Shen Que pondered for a moment and realized there was nothing.

"No worries, a director can do laundry and cook, taking charge inside and outside the home!"

Jiang Cheng smiled faintly and said, "That’s my favorite!"

Shen Que’s ears turned red from being teased, as he silently counted down the days until he could stand up.

Once he can stand up, can they get married?

Thinking of marriage, Shen Que’s eyes lit up.

"What are you thinking?"

Jiang Cheng asked, and Shen Que glanced around nervously and said, "Nothing!"

Jiang Cheng looked at him skeptically but didn’t expose him.

The couple continued their affectionate display, Shen Xing and Shen Yue were used to it, and Grandma Shen paid no attention.

Everyone worked together, and the dumplings were soon in the pot.

Once cooked, Jiang Cheng took advantage of their warmth and went to the hospital.

She took Shen Que’s car.

Truly, Shen Que timed it perfectly, managing to spend as much time with Jiang Cheng as possible.

Two days later, Teacher Lü could go home to recuperate.

Initially, Jiang Cheng wanted to invite Teacher Lü to stay with her, but Teacher Lü declined.

Later, Jiang Cheng thought it wouldn’t be appropriate because she wouldn’t be home all the time.

If she wasn’t home, Teacher Lü would become Grandma Shen’s burden, and that wouldn’t be good.

Jiang Cheng took Teacher Lü home and was relieved to learn that someone would take care of her.

Having settled Teacher Lü, an exhausted Jiang Cheng returned to the courtyard.

Everyone was home today.

Grandma Shen sent Jiang Cheng back to her room for a nap, which lasted until dinner.

During dinner, Shen Que told Jiang Cheng that Director Lu would be going to the countryside tomorrow.

"Before the end of the shift, Director Lu called to say he’d pick you up at 7:30 tomorrow and try to return the same day. But just in case, be prepared and bring some items."

"Alright!"

Jiang Cheng acknowledged understandingly and continued eating.

After dinner, Shen Que left and informed Grandma Shen that he probably wouldn’t be back for the next few days.

Grandma Shen didn’t even glance at Shen Que and said, "I guessed as much."

With Jiang Cheng not being around, why would someone come home?

Seeing this, Shen Que quickly explained, "It’s not because of that; there’s a technical competition at the factory."

Grandma Shen, with a look that said she didn’t want to hear any explanations, waved him off.

"With both of you gone, I can relax for a few days. Off you go!"

Feeling dismissed, Shen Que left with a smile, and Jiang Cheng walked him out for a short distance.

After a brief moment of intimacy, Jiang Cheng returned to her room and packed a simple travel bag.

Having napped during the day, she wasn’t very sleepy at night.

She decided to translate the materials and books she had brought back.

The next morning after breakfast, Jiang Cheng took the lunchbox filled with the sauerkraut pancakes Grandma Shen had made early in the morning, along with a few eggs.
