Chapter 221 Before leaving
Su Chunsen gave him a thumbs up and praised him harshly, "You are very thoughtful, thoughtful and capable. When the time comes, I will follow you to the battlefield. It will be safer. Don't despise your uncle for holding you back!"
"How could that be! I am here and will definitely protect you."
If it were in the past, Shen Yi would not dare to say such words, but now he has Su Tai to take care of things for him, so he is particularly confident in what he says and does.
Su Chunsen laughed, "Okay, okay! After hearing what you said, I feel that going to the battlefield is not a life-threatening thing!"
Su Tai on the side said hurriedly: "Uncle, I will prepare armor and self-defense items for you. Auntie is here, so please help me make a waist bag. Cowhide is not easy to sew, and it has been very difficult for me these days!"
When Mrs. Wan heard this, she started to work immediately.
Ke Yunyun and Xiaoxi also expressed their willingness to help.
They are not worried about the children because Su Chunlin and Su Chunsen are looking after them.
That day, the Wan family lived directly in Su Tai's house and helped to make five or six waist bags, which were almost enough for their use.
After Su Chunsen and his family left, it was Shen Wen's wedding day.
If it were an ordinary time, Xu would have been laughing to the sky, but with conscription approaching, she had no enthusiasm at all. She was absent-minded in arranging the wedding and often made mistakes.
When others saw her and asked her a few more questions, her eyes would turn red. It was really difficult.
Su Tai went to help. After Shen Wen and Qi Yan returned to their room after the wedding ceremony, Xu secretly hid in her room and cried. She felt sad. Thinking of Han, she discussed with Shen Yi, "Do you think we should talk to our parents about letting Ming get married now?"
Shen Yi was shocked. "Wife, what are you thinking? Ming is only thirteen, he's still young!"
Su Tai sighed, "I was thinking of my father. My uncle must be very happy to have his status restored. Now if I can see my youngest son get married, I think he will have no worries at all!"
Shen Yi touched her head, "Don't let your imagination run wild! But this is something you can consider. There are many people who get married within 13 days of marriage in a village. Having more people at home can make it more lively, and there will be someone to help mother-in-law share some of the burden. It's not bad. Do you have a favorite candidate?"
Su Tai looked at Huang Xinghua's family who were having a feast, and asked in a low voice: "What do you think of Shen Xiang?"
Shen Yi was not surprised at all. "Shen Xiang is fine. She is smart and efficient. But you told Shen Xiang to her brothers from her mother's family. After I leave, who will do the work for our family?"
Su Tai looked at Shen Xiang's other brothers and sisters. "Da Gou has to go to military service, Shen Xiang is getting married, and their brothers and sisters should be good too. As long as they are good, they can make up for their lack. I think Aunt Huang will be happy too."
Shen Yi thought for a while before saying, "I'll ask my father-in-law, mother-in-law and Ming what they think first. If they are willing, we'll go talk to them."
Su Tai agreed. In her opinion, this matter was a sure thing and there would be no mistakes.
Sure enough, after Shen Yi went to Dongmen Village, he found out that both Su Chunlin and his wife agreed, and Su Ming was also very happy.
Shen Yi turned around and discussed this matter with Shen Dagou, "Dagou, what do you think of my brother-in-law?"
Shen Dagou was stunned for a moment before he realized, "Brother Shen, are you talking about Su Ming? He's quite nice! He always comes to help with the work on the first and fifteenth day of the month. He's very diligent, easy-going, and funny. What's wrong?"
Shen Yi laughed, "What do you think of him being your brother-in-law?"
With a clang, the rolling pin in Shen Dagou's hand fell. "Shen Shen Shen...Brother Shen, you are not kidding!"
Shen Yi regained his serious look, "How could I joke about this kind of thing! If you don't object, talk to your sister, and discuss it with your parents. If they are willing, ask your mother to give my wife a reply."
"But if that's the case, then there will be no one working here?" Shen Dagou frowned.
Shen Yi smiled with relief and said, "You don't have to worry about this. If your sister really marries my brother-in-law, you can let other brothers and sisters in your family do the work here. I only have one request, that you must be really hardworking and keep your mouth shut."
Shen Dagou's face became serious. "Don't worry, Brother Shen. We all look like our parents. There is no one in our family who is cunning. The smartest one is Ah Xiang."
"Hahaha..." Shen Yi laughed so hard that he couldn't stop amusing.
Shen Xiang came in with a pot of meat, "What are you talking about?"
The two looked at each other and said nothing.
When Shen Dagou and his sister finished their work and returned home, he immediately ran to Shen Mu and told him about this matter.
Shen Mu was a little surprised. "I heard that Su Tai's family is very well off. Why did they choose our Ah Xiang?"
Shen Dagou laughed, "Su Ming often comes to help with the work. We all know him well. It must be that boy likes our Ah Xiang. Dad, I think this marriage is great. Let's agree to it!"
Shen Mu was a little hesitant, "But who will make the pot cakes for Shen Yi's family? And we have a lot of work to do..."
"Dad! Life is always here. Ah Xiang will get married sooner or later. You can't let your sister's lifelong event be delayed because you are too busy with housework. The Su family is one of the best in the area. If you miss the opportunity, it will be gone!" Shen Dagou persuaded earnestly.
Shen Mu nodded heavily, with a frown on his face.
When Huang Xinghua came back and heard about this, she said without hesitation: "I agree! I agree to Ah Xiang's marriage!"
Mrs. Chen standing by had the same idea, so she didn't say anything.
When Huang Xinghua hurriedly ran to Su Tai for reply, Shen Xiang realized that she was going to marry Su Ming.
Seeing her hesitation, Shen Dagou advised, "The Su family is a rare good family. You won't have to worry about your life in the second half of your life if you marry into it. Moreover, Sister Su Tai's parents are good-natured. You can tell from their attitude towards their child brides. You won't have to worry about the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law problem if you marry into it. You definitely can't miss out on such good conditions.
I'm going to fight in the war, and you're getting married. You can let your younger brothers and sisters take over the pot-cake work. This is what Big Brother Shen told me. Then let Ergou and A Tian take our place."
"Who will do the housework?" Shen Xiang asked worriedly.
Shen Dagou thought for a moment and said, "Your sister-in-law is still at home. I'll discuss it with Brother Shen. There's always a way. Don't worry about it."
With the insistence of Shen Dagou and Huang Xinghua, the marriage between Shen Xiang and Su Ming was quickly settled.
They picked a good day nearby and the two families held the wedding with great enthusiasm.
While Shen Yi was still here, Shen Ergou and Shen Tian worked and studied as quickly as possible, trying to master it before Shen Yi left.
In addition to Shen Ergou and Shen Tian, Shen Wen and his wife also came to help.
After Shen Yi leaves, the Guokui business can continue to operate normally and will not be affected.
After everything was arranged, the weather suddenly dropped in temperature. A few days before Shen Yi's departure, Su Tai suddenly suffered from insomnia. She tossed and turned every night and became increasingly haggard.
Shen Yi was really worried and insisted on taking her to town to see a doctor.
