Chapter 80 A Repressed and Abstinent Man
It seems that even the most abstinent man in normal times will become secretly passionate after marriage; outwardly abstinent, inwardly...

When Wen Ci returned home, only a few little ones were doing their homework by the pavilion in the yard. The bright sunlight shone on them. She walked up behind them and asked, "Why don't you go to the pavilion to do your homework?"

"The sun is shining and it's warm."

"And what about your mom and dad?"

"Go home."

"Going home?" Wen Ci frowned.

There was a lot of food left over from lunch, and the table was still set up in the yard.

Why did Jingjie and the others go home?

The little monkey, holding a book in his hands, slowly raised his head and explained, "Dad got drunk, so Mom and the others helped them back to rest."

Wen Ci: "..."

Men inevitably get drunk at the dinner table.

Suddenly, Wen Ci became curious about whether Huo Jingyuan could drink alcohol. Although resources were scarce in the Northwest region, there were still quite a few smokers who smoked hand-rubbed tobacco.

The flavor is extremely strong.

I've known Huo Jingyuan for so long and I've never seen him smoke.

She has no problem with men drinking, as long as it's not to the point of alcoholism.

But I can't really accept cigarettes. Not only do they smell bad, but they also affect my health.

Wen Ci asked with a gentle smile, "How is it? Can you understand it, little rascal?"

"I don't really understand, but it's beautiful," the little monkey replied.

Literary works may be a bit difficult for the little monkey at this stage; his reading ability is not enough to understand such profound principles.

Little Stone walked up to Wen Ci, tilted his head back, and said in a childish voice, "Pretty sister, I want to ride in the car."

"Okay." Wen Ci reached out and picked up Xiao Shitou from the ground. The bicycle was a large frame and wouldn't easily fall over. He then helped Xiao Shitou sit on the back seat.

Little Stone's face lit up with excitement: "Wow, the car is so tall!"

Worried that Xiao Shitou would fall to the ground, Wen Ci held him protectively with both hands the whole time, gently reminding him, "Xiao Shitou, don't sway from side to side~"

"Sister, can you take me for a spin around?"

Upon hearing this, the children gathered around Wen Ci, their bright eyes shining as they stared at her. She found it hard to bear the attention.

Wen Ci said, "Auntie's driving skills are not good."

If it were a regular low-seat bicycle, she could carry them around by herself, but she wasn't quite used to the bicycles from the 1980s.
-
That day, someone leaked the news, saying that the first place winner of the "Devil Week" would be awarded a bicycle, and the entire Northwest Military Region was in an uproar.

Even the Youth League Committee heard the news and came to Huo Jingyuan's office to ask, "Wasn't that bicycle your bride price? Why are you giving it away as a reward?"

"She thought it was too flashy."

Upon hearing this, the Youth League member nodded in agreement. It wasn't that he hadn't had industrial vouchers given to him before; he could afford them if he saved up. It was just completely unnecessary in the Northwest.

"Did you really discuss and agree with your partner to give it away?"

"Yes." Huo Jingyuan nodded. "Let's take this as an incentive for them."

The Youth League Committee member grinned from ear to ear: "Okay, I'll have each Youth League leader promote it in their own group later, and try to break new records again this Hell Week."

Originally, everyone was suffering from the arrival of the Hell Week, but after being given the reward, they were all like they had been injected with chicken blood, and they all shouted that they would strive to be the best.

During dinner in the evening.

Zhu Jing walked up to Wen Ci, looking awkward. She opened her mouth as if to say something but then hesitated, finally saying apologetically, "Wen Ci, I need to apologize to you."

"Apologize for what?" Wen Ci blinked.
