Chapter 105: Letter from Home Without a Reply
In the next few days, Shen Anan sorted out the things she had signed in before in the space again, and put all the things that she could not use for the time being in the system store for exchange.
Although the points for each item are not many, the exchange points have reached nearly 130,000 points.
Now Shen Anan was hesitating with the tracker in her hand. She had obtained it with great difficulty by signing in at the police station when the human traffickers kidnapped Shen Yulin's brothers last time.
She had just placed the tracker in the system store, but she didn't expect that this item could be exchanged for 10,000 redemption points!
Since the last time, this tracker has been kept in the space and has not been used. I feel that there will be no chance to use it in the future. Should I exchange it?
Shen Anan hesitated for a long time, but finally put the tracker away. After all, it was an item obtained by using the sign-in point level-up card, so she decided to keep it for now. If she really couldn't collect 300,000 exchange points in the end, she could recycle the tracker.
Shen Anan doesn't know yet, but in the near future, this somewhat useless tracker will help her expose a big conspiracy.
Ever since the incident with Hu Daniu, Shen Anan has paid more attention to the health of the Shen family. She has cooked several times just to put the roots of thousand-year-old ginseng into the dishes to nourish everyone.
The good news is that thousand-year-old ginseng is really nutritious. The Shen family members' complexions are becoming more and more rosy, and Wang Sufen and Shen Laiyou are also much healthier.
The bad news is that the medicinal smell of the thousand-year-old ginseng is too strong. In order to cover up this smell, Shen Anan had to make the dish very strong in flavor and add more other seasonings.
These days, even Wang Sufen, who doted on her the most, couldn't stand it anymore and forbade her to go near the kitchen.
Wang Sufen pinched Shen Laiyou's waist many times at night, thinking that it was he who passed on the kitchen killer gene to his daughter!
Shen Laiyou rubbed his waist with gritted teeth, but dared not say anything.
Shen Yuanxing was completely confused. The braised pork cooked by An An before was so delicious that he almost swallowed his tongue. What happened recently?
Is it because he was too sad about Hu Daniu's incident?
Shen Yuanxing didn't dare to say anything more, for fear of upsetting his sister. He only taught the children privately that they must never act like the food was unpalatable in front of their sister-in-law!
Shen Anan breathed a sigh of relief after being kicked out of the kitchen. The dark dishes she made were so hard for her to swallow.
However, thousand-year-old ginseng is very effective, and everyone has had enough tonic during this period, so let's wait for a while before making any decisions.
I hope she can find a way to cover up the smell of ginseng later, otherwise...
Of course, there was some good news this year, for example, Shen Yuanjia's fiancée visited the Shen family for the first time.
Shen Anan finally met the legendary sixth sister-in-law. Zheng Caiyan had a good appearance. She was not the kind of frail beauty, but full of healthy beauty.
Most importantly, Jung Chae-yeon’s cooking is really delicious!
This meal made the entire Shen family, who had recently been tortured by Shen Anan's cooking skills, have the highest recognition of her!
After eating and drinking, Wang Sufen and Aunt Zheng discussed and decided on the date for their wedding, which was mid-September, so as not to delay the autumn harvest.
Shen Anan joined in the fun with her nephews and nieces. Seeing Shen Yuanjia and Zheng Caiyan's faces as red as the rosy clouds in the sky, her mood also became relaxed.
……
……
At the same time, at the Communications Office of the South Island Military Region, Shen Yuanjun returned disappointed again.
"Sorry, Platoon Leader Shen, there is still no letter for you." The communicator looked through the registration book in his hand and spoke apologetically.
Shen Yuanjun pursed his lips. It had been almost three months. He wrote a letter home every week, but his family had never replied.
Could it be that his family disagreed with what he said in the letter?
But that doesn't make sense. Given his mother's temper, if she didn't agree, she would definitely write a letter to scold him. How come she didn't reply?
Could it be that his mother was so angry that she simply didn't want him as her son anymore?
Perhaps because it was the Chinese New Year and he hadn't received any letters from home for a long time, Shen Yuanjun's thoughts became a little scattered.
"Platoon Leader Shen, is it because your family members don't agree with that? Would you like to reconsider it? This is a matter of a lifetime." The communicator spoke hesitantly. It was not that he wanted to meddle in other people's business, but he had heard a lot of rumors during this period.
"Thank you, I understand." Shen Yuanjun pursed his lips, knowing that the communicator was kind-hearted, and agreed.
But he knew that he would never change his decision.
As a soldier, some things are not only promises but also responsibilities.
Shen Yuanjun paused when he caught a glimpse of a figure outside the communications room. He asked the communicator to keep an eye on the letters and then walked out.
The communicator looked at the two figures walking away outside the door and sighed.
Hey, Platoon Leader Shen is a good man, but he is too honest!
Shen Yuanjun looked at the figure in front of him, hesitated for a moment and said, "Sister-in-law, why are you here?"
Fan Lijuan's body trembled violently, and her eyes gradually turned red. "Why are you still calling me sister-in-law? Do you regret it?"
"Today is the Lantern Festival. I exchanged some glutinous rice with someone and borrowed the kitchen stove to make some rice dumplings. I wanted to bring you a bowl." Fan Lijuan said as she lifted the cloth covering the basket, revealing the aluminum lunch box inside.
Shen Yuanjun's expression remained unchanged, and he didn't take the lunch box. "No, sister-in-law, I'm not hungry. You can take it back and eat it yourself."
"Is the money I gave you last time enough? If not, remember to tell me."
Fan Lijuan's body was shaky, tears streaming down her face. "If you regret it, I won't bother you anymore. I'll leave tomorrow, and even if I die, I won't bother you again!"
Fan Lijuan turned around and was about to leave. Shen Yuanjun pulled her arm anxiously, but it was too hot to handle and he let go immediately. "That's not what I meant. I just think you should take care of yourself. After all..."
Fan Lijuan's eyes were red as she stared at Shen Yuanjun stubbornly, "Shen Yuanjun, what I said is true. If you regret it, I..."
Shen Yuanjun interrupted her and said firmly, "I promised Da Kui what I would do."
"In two days, I'll apply for a house, and then you can move in first."
"how about you?"
"I'd like to wait for a reply from home. After all, this is a big deal."
An unknown emotion flashed across Fan Lijuan's lowered eyes, and she whispered, "What if I still don't receive a reply? Do I have to wait indefinitely?"
Shen Yuanjun hesitated for a moment and said, "Wait another half a month. If there is still no reply, I will apply for marriage directly."
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
"It's getting late. I'll take you back to the dorm."
"Okay, this box of dumplings is specially made for you. Take it back and try it."
"Thank you."
