Chapter 295 The Female Cannon Fodder Who Falsely Claims Favors in the Historical Literature 36
As soon as she arrived in the countryside, Zhao Xue specifically inquired about Jiang Erya. She was indeed a poor little village girl who was not valued and bullied in the Jiang family.
But just in case, she still kept a trick.
After reading the system's report, she deliberately pulled off one of Lu Jianjun's buttons as evidence after saving him, and then watched coldly as the Lu family proposed to the Jiang family.
When the two were about to get married, she ran over to expose Jiang Erya's claim of favor. This way, she could completely push Jiang Erya into the quagmire and completely sever the fate between her and Lu Jianjun.
But surprisingly, Jiang Erya eloquently admitted that she did not save Lu Jianjun, thus resolving this situation that would ruin her reputation.
Zhao Xue successfully married into the Lu family, but she was still somewhat unhappy with Jiang Erya.
After marrying into the Lu family, most of the family's money was managed by Lu's mother, and Lu Jianjun only gave her a small portion for her to spend.
Previously, there had always been the Zhao family's slush fund, subsidies for going to the countryside, and active feeding from bootlickers. Zhao Xue was used to spending lavishly, and felt that the little money Lu Jianjun gave was not even enough to fill the gaps between her teeth.
But she was in the Lu family, with the whole family together, so it was difficult to find a reason to cook for herself. Even on market days, Lu Jianjun offered to accompany her.
Zhao Xue had always been sensible and understanding in front of Lu Jianjun, so naturally she didn't dare to indulge herself in extravagant activities.
Unable to bear it, Zhao Xue had to focus on the planting space.
When she first went to the countryside, several waves of fruits and vegetables matured in her space.
After reading a lot of novels, she knew that there were some farming spaces with spiritual spring water.
So she deliberately tasted the fruits and vegetables in the space, but to her disappointment, the fruits and vegetables were just fresher and did not have the magical effects they have today.
Zhao Xue felt that it was boring at the time, so she gave up the idea of using the planting space to dominate the black market. After all, some ordinary fruits and vegetables were not worth the risk of going to the black market.
Therefore, she only focused on completing the task, trying hard to enjoy the active feeding from the dogs and the envy of everyone.
After marrying into the Lu family, she gradually began to think about making money by using the planting space.
I really didn’t have any food coupons, and I was very panicked!
Especially after Wen Hao went crazy and asked her to borrow money, she was forced by Wen Hao to pay a huge sum of money with great reluctance.
Although Wen Hao claimed that he was borrowing money, he obviously had no intention of paying it back.
She could only take advantage of the market time to get Lu Jianjun away and go to the black market to trade.
When she first went to the black market, the transactions were not smooth, and she even encountered people from the Revolutionary Committee who came to investigate. She only remembered that the vendors in the entire alley fled with their heads in their arms. If she had not put the things into the space in time, she might have been arrested.
That failure left a huge psychological trauma on her, so the second time someone offered to make a long-term deal with her, she agreed without hesitation.
Now when she thought about how she had sold so many fruits and vegetables with magical effects that were in short supply at such low prices, she felt so heartbroken that her blood was dripping. If she had used these on Lu Jianjun earlier, his injuries would have healed long ago!
She would not risk her life and lose face just to win over the big boss in the bullpen!
Just thinking about it, Zhao Xue felt filled with regret.
Although she didn't know why these fruits and vegetables had undergone such drastic changes, Zhao Xue didn't take it to heart. After all, she could travel through books, control the plot, and have her own planting space. This was definitely the standard configuration of a heroine!
These golden fingers, which are exclusive treatment for the protagonist, will come late but not late, Zhao Xue thought.
When she thought of this, Zhao Xue looked at the bold system task that had been stuck with burning eyes.
System Task: [I am the best wife - help Lu Jianjun recover and return to the army.]
Now that she has her own space, it will not be a problem for Lu Jianjun to recover from his injuries. She will then follow the army and when the plot gets on track, she will become the wife of that great military officer with unlimited potential in the future!
Zhao Xue thought happily, feeling a little regretful that she discovered the usefulness of the space so late. She immediately took out some vegetables from the space and put them in the kitchen, ready to start her plan from noon.
When Lu's mother came back to cook at noon, Zhao Xue just said a few words casually, and Lu's mother cooked a pot of rice with those dishes.
After dinner, Zhao Xue asked Lu Jianjun in a good mood.
"Jianjun, how is your previous injury? Has it gotten better recently?"
Lu Jianjun frowned and thought, "It seems to be the same as before."
"Ah." Zhao Xue seemed to be thinking about something, wondering if it was because Lu Jianjun had been injured for too long and had not eaten enough spiritual plants.
"Then you must tell me in time if you have any changes in the future. We are husband and wife, husband and wife are one. You hid it from me before, I don't blame you, but I hope you won't hide it from me again in the future!"
Seeing that his wife was discussing the matter with him calmly, Lu Jianjun naturally agreed.
Lu Jianjun has been in a very good mood in the past week because he has felt his wife's thoughtful care and sweet words for the first time in a long time.
During these days, Zhao Xue tried her best to feed him fruits and vegetables, and occasionally picked food for him at the dinner table. She also asked him almost every day if he was feeling unwell.
He didn’t know if it was because he was in a good mood, but Lu Jianjun always felt that the pain in his chest, which used to occur every two days, was not as frequent as before.
He told his wife about these changes as soon as possible, and Zhao Xue felt better after knowing that.
Apparently, the fruits and vegetables she grew in her space were really helpful to her husband's injuries.
She thought things would develop naturally and she only needed to wait for Lu Jianjun to recover and then she could sit back and relax. However, things changed subtly.
In the blink of an eye, the last day of the month arrived.
In the Lu family’s house, the couple who were so affectionate a few days ago started arguing.
"No, I don't agree!" Zhao Xue's voice sounded firmly.
"Axue? Even if I pass the inspection successfully and get a job in town, I will still come back on time every day. Why don't you agree?" Lu Jianjun couldn't understand.
"Didn't I tell you before that you can't be a little more promising? Your injuries have obviously recovered a lot in the past few days. If you rest for a few more days, you may be able to apply to return to the army right away! There is no need for you to go to the town to participate in that inspection!" Zhao Xue said confidently.
Lu Jianjun frowned and explained, "But tomorrow is the last day to submit recommendation letters. If I don't recover, I won't have a job by then!"
Although it doesn't matter if I don't have this job, it would be great to get some salary every month to supplement my family after passing the job. The opportunity is right in front of me, there is no reason not to go.
Zhao Xue also frowned, "How do you know that your body can't recover? It's obvious that you're getting better these days?"
Lu Jianjun was speechless, and after calming down, he said patiently, "Axue, it's not bad for me to work in town. It's close to home, and my mother and my brothers and sisters are all here—"
Zhao Xue frowned as she listened to this somewhat old-fashioned topic, as if she had just realized it. "Okay! Lu Jianjun, have you already planned to stay at home and not want to return to the army, so you keep making excuses? You have been in the army for five years before, and your mother and brothers and sisters are still fine. What do you have to worry about? You can't always put yourself in a difficult position for them, right?"
"Do you know that if you really have a position in the town, personnel transfers will not be so fast. By the time you return to the army, the opportunity will be gone!" How can you get promoted in that case?
Lu Jianjun listened to this in silence, pursed his lips, and whispered, "I still want to stay here."
Zhao Xue was so angry that she glared at him with disappointment.
How much had she invested in him, and now he wanted to deny her contribution with just a few words?
She suppressed her anger, thought of Lu Jianjun's stubborn temper, and spoke softly.
"Then let's not argue anymore. Let's think about it carefully and make sure we're done."
Lu Jianjun looked at Zhao Xue and wanted to say that he had already thought about it and this was his final decision.
But seeing that Zhao Xue closed her eyes and seemed to refuse to communicate, Lu Jianjun had no choice but to wait for her to figure it out before coming over to discuss it.
The atmosphere in the room was dull and depressing. Lu Jianjun couldn't stand it any longer and went out to relax.
Hearing Lu Jianjun's footsteps gradually fading away, Zhao Xue, who was sitting beside the bed, immediately took out the letter of recommendation. She stared at the letter for a long time and finally put it into the space.
After doing all this, she put the previous resettlement letter into Lu Jianjun's bag.
She wanted to see, without the letter of recommendation, how could Lu Jianjun go to the garment factory in town for an interview?
When Lu Jianjun returned to the room again, Zhao Xue had calmed down.
After hearing Lu Jianjun clearly express his desire to stay at home again, Zhao Xue was dissatisfied in her heart, but her face showed great disappointment.
"You... forget it, whatever you want. If you really want to stay home, I can't stop you. The things are all in your bag, you can just take them when you wake up tomorrow."
As Zhao Xue said this, she kept an eye on Lu Jianjun out of the corner of her eye, fearing that he would go through her bag to check.
Seeing Zhao Xue being so considerate, Lu Jianjun naturally let down his guard. He approached Zhao Xue with a shameful look on his face and said nice things to her.
The two of them whispered to each other for a long time, and the relationship between the couple was restored. Zhao Xue pulled Lu Jianjun intimately and went to sleep directly.
-
Early the next morning, Zhao Xue vaguely felt that someone beside her was moving. She turned over sleepily and curled up in the quilt to continue sleeping.
When the sky brightened and the warm sun gradually shone into the house, Zhao Xue opened her eyes sleepily.
Lu Jianjun was no longer by her side. Zhao Xue sensed the recommendation letter stored in the space again, and happily got up, washed up, and had breakfast.
Lu's mother and younger brother had already gone to work, leaving Zhao Xue and Lu's younger sister alone in the room.
After leisurely enjoying her breakfast, Zhao Xue put the dishes in the kitchen, called out to Sister Lu to clean up the dishes, and then went back to the inner room.
Zhao Xue took out a mirror and combed her hair with a comb, but she still felt that life without a mobile phone was extremely boring.
After marrying into the Lu family, she went to work less and less often. She would make an excuse of not feeling well every three to five days. Anyway, no one in the family said anything to her, so she felt at ease staying at home.
As she was thinking about it, she habitually glanced at the system task -
There was a "clang" sound.
The comb in Zhao Xue's hand fell to the ground, but no one picked it up for a while.
She looked at the task panel in disbelief, and the tasks on it were refreshed.
The new system tasks are still in uppercase bold black font, making them easy to see at a glance.
System Task: [I am the best wife - please take care of the trivial matters in the military compound.]
The task that was previously issued has now turned into gray font.
Zhao Xue tried to point her finger at the gray font, but the panel did not respond. Instead, the new task flashed a few times in front of her eyes.
But what kind of military compound is this?
Lu Jianjun has not returned to the army at all, so where did the military compound come from?
Zhao Xue thought with a grim expression, and inexplicably doubted that the tasks issued by this system were all time-limited and one-time tasks.
According to the plot of the original book, at this point in time, Lu Jianjun has successfully taken his wife to join the army.
But as soon as the country girl Jiang Eryatou went there, she was invisiblely rejected by the women in the family compound, including some young girls who had once been interested in Lu Jianjun.
They looked down on Jiang Erya and had been sarcastic to her many times, both overtly and covertly. It was truly the case that I didn't offend others, but others offended me.
This is consistent with the new system task - to handle the trivial matters in the military compound.
Zhao Xue paced back and forth in the room impatiently. Now that the previous mission was out of date, she could only catch up as quickly as possible and get the plot back on track. Otherwise, she would be late for any future missions issued by the system, and this planting space would be wasted.
Thinking of this, Zhao Xue even took back all the vegetables that had been put in the kitchen.
There is not much stock in the space, and the seed cultivation progress cannot be unlocked if the task is not completed, so these things cannot be wasted at all.
Just as I was thinking about it, the Lu family's door slammed shut.
Zhao Xue looked out through the window and saw Lu Jianjun, who had a depressed look and hidden anger on his face.
He didn't even look at Sister Lu who was frightened and ran out to check the situation, and went straight to the inner room where they were staying.
Pushing the door open forcefully, the couple's eyes instantly met.
Lu Jianjun took a deep breath and suppressed his anger, "Where's the letter? Where's the recommendation letter?"
Zhao Xue was well prepared. She said "ah" with a puzzled look on her face and pretended to be completely unaware.
"Isn't the letter in your bag? Didn't you take it away? Why are you asking me what I want to do?" Zhao Xue even frowned and looked at Lu Jianjun with dissatisfaction.
Lu Jianjun's face darkened. After he left yesterday, it was Zhao Xue who packed up those things. How could she not know?
He immediately threw the bag towards Zhao Xue and spoke sternly.
"You packed the placement letter yesterday, why is it not in your bag?"
Zhao Xue took the bag and started searching in disbelief. After confirming again and again that it was not there, she looked at Lu Jianjun in a daze.
