Reborn as a Tough Army Wife

In broad daylight and at home, Fang Pingying noticed the door wasn't properly closed, luckily nobody was in the house at that moment.

Her cheeks flushed red as she grabbed Luo Zhiyong's hand, whispering, "What are you doing? Mom and dad will be back any minute now."

"My wife, I've missed you." Luo Zhiyong hugged Fang Pingying, murmuring in her ear, "Think about how long it's been since we've done that."

Fang Pingying pushed him lightly, chiding, "Have you forgotten what the doctor said?"

"Hasn't it been almost three months? It should be fine now." Luo Zhiyong had counted the days and thought it was about time, whispering, "I'll be gentle."

Fang Pingying was worried and didn't comply, pushing him away firmly, "We haven't been to the hospital for a check-up recently, we still don't know if the fetus is stable."

Luo Zhiyong felt the emptiness in his arms, a hint of disappointment crossed his face as he looked plaintively at Fang Ping and said, "My wife, I miss you to death, what should I do?"

"Don't talk nonsense." Fang Pingying knew how vigorous this man's stamina was; even when she was in good health she could not satisfy him and now it had been nearly a month, she assumed he must be suffering, sparing him a glance, she whispered, "We can't right now, at least we need to go to the hospital for a check-up first, we can only do it after the doctor says it's okay."

Upon hearing this, Luo Zhiyong elongated his tone, "Wife, it will be at least another ten days before we go back to the provincial city."

"Don't get wild ideas." Fang Pingying made him sit up properly and got up from his embrace, "Get up, I have something to ask you."

"Hmm?" Luo Zhiyong sat up and took a sip from the cup of water Fang Pingying had poured for him earlier.

Fang Pingying asked him, "How is uncle's health now?"

"It's nothing too serious, the doctor said he just needs to rest for a while and he'll be fine." Luo Zhiyong sighed, "After all, he's getting on in years, his body is not like it used to be. If it was when he was younger, taking a cold bath or something wouldn't be a big deal for uncle."

"Yes, that's how it is with old age."

Luo Zhiyong nodded and asked Fang Pingying, "Anything happened at home these past days, have mom and dad decided on Luo Cuilan's marriage?"

Speaking of family matters, Fang Pingying wasn't sure where to start; one thing after another, it was all a mess.

Fang Xiu's child belonged to another man, Zhou Yunmei drank pesticide, Luo Dashan struck Zhou Yunmei in front of her for the first time.

Seeing her silent, Luo Zhiyong immediately guessed that something must have been amiss at home over the past few days, he pulled her to sit down, urging her to take her time to tell.

She told him everything about Zhou Yunmei and the others at home, but hesitated with Fang Xiu's issue and decided not to speak of it.

She felt it was up to Luo Zhiyong and Fang Xiu to deal with the matter themselves, even if she were to tell Luo Zhiyong, as an older cousin, he probably wouldn't know what to say.

It would surely cause another uproar at home.

After the couple finished talking, Luo Dashan and the others also returned home.

Seeing that Luo Dahu was in good spirits, Luo Dashan and the rest were quite happy.

During the festive season, the whole family was back together, and the midday New Year meal was very rich.

A big table was fully laid with dishes, and Luo Zhiyong and his fathers even had a few drinks.

Under normal circumstances, Luo Zhiyong never got drunk because of work, but since it was the New Year, he didn't hold back and drank two bottles of baijiu with Luo Dashan and Luo Zhiming, and all of them got red-faced drunk.

Luo Zhiming, who was starting to talk nonsense from being drunk, wrapped his arms around Fang Xiu beside him, let out a burp, and said with a laugh, "My wife is just great, pretty and capable. She even gave me a big fat son, really hit the jackpot."

Fang Xiu was giggling happily from his praise.

Luo Cuilan, who was sitting nearby, found this annoying and shot him a glance. "How do you know it's a big fat son? Might as well be a daughter."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yunmei patted her lightly and scolded with a smile, "What are you talking about? Can't you speak properly? If it really turns out to be a daughter, I will beat you to death."

Seeing this, Luo Zhiming suddenly squinted at Zhou Yunmei and shook his head, speaking with a bit of a slurred tongue, "Mom, why would you hit her? Just marry her off quickly. I heard from a buddy of mine in the village yesterday that the other day on the village hill, it seemed like they saw Zhang Jianguo and his sister doing who knows what. Maybe they were up to that sort of thing."

As soon as Luo Zhiming finished speaking, Luo Cuilan hit him, cursing, "Don't talk rubbish. You're always like this. Jianguo has always been honest about these things. He wouldn't do such messy stuff. Besides, although Xue'er isn't his biological sister, she grew up in their home and is considered family. How could they do that sort of thing?"

Luo Zhiming smacked his lips with certainty, "My buddy saw it with his own eyes, definitely no mistake."

Luo Cuilan didn't believe a word, "Your buddies are as unreliable as you. How can they be trusted?"

"Hold on, Jianguo and which sister?" Zhou Yunmei's face darkened after hearing this and said to Luo Zhiming, "Is it that one that their stepmother brought over?"

Luo Zhiming nodded, leering with a smirk, "Exactly, since she is not his real sister, why not sleep with her, it's a waste not to."

Hearing this, Luo Cuilan raised her hand and punched Luo Zhiming again, "You damned Luo Zhiming, I'm going to kill you today for spouting nonsense with your mouth."

"Why are you hitting him?" Zhou Yunmei stopped her, "In my opinion, you really should be careful in case there's truth to it."

Fang Xiu also sneered and chimed in, "Exactly, don't be so clueless that you don't even know when your man is having an affair right under your nose." Enjoying the story? Discover more on M|V|LEM6PYR.

Luo Cuilan glared at Fang Xiu with irritation and shook her head with certainty, "No, definitely not."

"Then why do people start such rumors?" Zhou Yunmei looked at her and said, "Plus, I think Jianguo's sister really does seem like no good, quite a tough cookie."

Zhou Yunmei's words did resonate somewhat with Fang Pingying. Although she had only met Zhang Xue'er once or twice, her intuition told her that Xue'er wasn't good news.

Moreover, the last time Xue'er visited her home, she seemed to have some animosity against Luo Cuilan. Logically speaking, at that time, Luo Cuilan wasn't married into their family yet, and there shouldn't have been any conflicts between them, but she just couldn't stand Luo Cuilan.

Even, Fang Pingying felt that what Luo Zhiming's brother said sounded somewhat credible.

Because she had memories of her past life, she knew that Zhang Jianguo only seemed honest and useless on the surface, but deep down, he was actually a womanizer; otherwise, in the past life, he wouldn't have found another woman as soon as he went out to work.

But her current relationship with Luo Cuilan wasn't very good, and seeing that Luo Cuilan really didn't like to hear others speak ill of Zhang Jianguo, she didn't bother to say more, lest she be blamed later.

Seeing that Luo Zhiyong was also quite drunk, she reached out to pull him, "Let's go inside and rest for a while, and I'll wake you up for dumplings later in the evening."

"Alright, I'll rest for a bit," Luo Zhiyong stood up, so drunk he could barely stand.

Fang Pingying quickly held on to him, "Lean on me."

Luo Zhiyong, grinning like a fool, leaned on Fang Pingying and went into the house. (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommended tickets, monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read at m.qidian.com.)
