Sixty years old with the army, the heirless boss loves his fertile wife

Chapter 81 So it's because of this
Maybe it was because Zhan Zeye’s kiss was so intense that Tang Qiyue felt a little short of oxygen. She did not refute Zhan Zeye’s words, but just rolled her eyes at him.

It was broad daylight and this man didn't even bother to be discreet and didn't even draw the curtains.

Fortunately, Zhan Zeye still had some sense of propriety. His attention was drawn to the gas lamp on the table. He just hugged Tang Qiyue and asked her where the light came from.

After learning that it was Tang Qiyue's dowry, Zhan Zeye sighed and said, "Your father got you a lot of good things. I've seen this thing before, but it's troublesome to use!"

Tang Qiyue hummed.

Just bright.

“When will electricity be available on the island?”

Tang Qiyue was used to using electricity, and it was really troublesome without electricity here. She could use it secretly, but it was never as comfortable as using it openly.

"It's too early. We just arrived on the island and the running water isn't even available yet. It takes time to lay down the wires and generate electricity. But your brother's technicians have already started laying down the wires and generating electricity after they arrived on the island. We can ask them to help us out!"

Now that the technicians have arrived on the island, they must contribute to the construction of the island.

Tang Qiyue naturally hoped that it would happen as soon as possible.

Before the two of them could talk for a while, someone came to call Zhan Zeye. He had work to do and couldn't possibly hang out with Tang Qiyue at home all the time.

"Sister Zheng will take care of other people's family affairs, so don't meddle in them. If you're bored, just chat with the people next door!"

Zhan Zeye left with Political Commissar Wu after saying this.

Tang Qiyue looked at their hurried backs and didn't understand why there were so many things to do every day.

Tang Qiyue had nothing to do at the moment as she didn't get any fish or shrimp from the fishing village, so she went to check under the fence and found that the seeds she had planted before had sprouted.

Now I'm thinking of collecting some dead leaves and making some wood ash to sprinkle around the fence. Wood ash not only provides fertilizer but also can kill bacteria.

Looking at the sky, Tang Qiyue didn't plan to go to the beach. She just cleared the weeds around the fence and was about to pick up a basket to get some dead leaves.

"Sister July, what are you doing?"

Xiaoyang appeared in front of Tang Qiyue carrying a backpack. Tang Qiyue saw that the backpack had bent Xiaoyang's back, so she hurried over to help him take the backpack down.

"Why are you here? Is your sister sick again?"

Seeing Xiaoyang like this, Tang Qiyue thought that he had finished taking the medicine she gave him, and was about to go back to the house to get him some medicine, but Xiaoyang waved his hands repeatedly: "My sister is already well, she doesn't need to take medicine, my mother picked up a lot of green clams at the beach today, and asked me to bring some to you!"

It turns out that he wasn't sick.

Only then did Tang Qiyue notice that Xiaoyang’s backpack was full of green clams.

This kind of green clams are very common on the seashore. As long as they are given something to cling to, they will multiply in large numbers and grow very quickly. You don't even need to add water to this thing. Just throw it in the pot and steam it. It's cooked when it opens.

It tastes delicious, and there's a ball of wool-like stuff inside that you can just pull out and throw away when you're ready to eat.

Tang Qiyue knew that this thing was not valuable, so she did not refuse.

He carried Xiaoyang's backpack to the kitchen, found a basin to pour the eggs out, took out the two eggs cooked by Zhan Zeye from the pot and stuffed them into Xiaoyang's hands.

“Eat it while it’s hot!”

Tang Qiyue rubbed Xiaoyang's head. She grabbed some candies, wrapped them up and put them in Xiaoyang's backpack.

She didn't leave Xiaoyang at home to play, but took him out.

He walked Xiaoyang all the way to the entrance of the fishing village before turning around to collect the dead leaves.

When Xiaoyang returned home, he found the candies Tang Qiyue had put in the backpack. Xiaoyang's mother sighed, "This stuff is too valuable. The green clams picked up from the beach are worth so much. I heard that she likes small fish and shrimps. Next time when your father comes back, I'll send some more to her!"

Xiaoyang agreed. They were all kind people who knew how to be grateful, and Tang Qiyue's kindness was worth it.

Tang Qiuyue gathered a lot of dead leaves and filled her backpack with them and was walking back. On the way she heard some noise and unexpectedly found a wild rabbit.

Tang Qiyue was just worrying about how to get some meat to eat, now she has it.

She grabbed a handful of stones and threw them as the rabbit ran away.

She was very good at throwing stones and she threw a fat wild rabbit into her backpack.

When I got home, Zhan Zeye hadn't come back, but I saw Xu Qiuju chatting with someone at the door.

"Sister-in-law, come here quickly!"

Xu Qiuju called out, and Tang Qiyue pointed at the backpack, "I'll put it in first!"

When Tang Qiyue put down the backpack, Xu Qiuju and the others were already waiting for her in her yard.

"Give!"

Xu Qiuju stuffed a handful of dried crab legs into Tang Qiyue's hand.

This thing is the crab legs that are cooked and dried. Because there is little meat and they are still in the shell, they can be used as melon seeds. It is a rare snack for fishermen on the island.

I don't know where Xu Qiuju got them from, but now everyone has one in their hand. They are sitting in Tang Qiyue's yard. There are a few children playing outside, so there is no need to keep an eye on them.

"What's wrong with you guys?"

When Tang Qiyue saw that it was dried crab legs, she didn't hesitate and picked one up and put it in her mouth. She used her teeth to break the hard shell on the outside so that she could eat the dried crab legs inside.

The salty dried crab legs tasted good.

"We were afraid that Sister Zhao would be upset. After you were taken away by Battalion Commander Zhan, we followed Sister Zhao to her home. You don't know that Captain Wang even knelt down before Sister Zhao!"

Xu Qiuju couldn't hold back and started gossiping with Tang Qiyue.

Li Erhong beside him also nodded: "We were all shocked at the time. We all thought that Sister Zhao would definitely recover. Who knew that Sister Zhao would stop talking at first? Later, Captain Wang wrote a letter of guarantee and asked Political Commissar Wu and Sister Zheng to be witnesses. Sister Zhao suddenly went crazy!"

Probably because they didn't expect things to develop this way, Xu Qiuju and the others got together to gossip.

Tang Qiyue had not witnessed the scene at that time, so she was naturally curious about what happened.

"Sister Zhao kept slapping herself, luckily Sister Zheng quickly held it in place! Tsk tsk tsk tsk... We all felt so sorry for her at that time, how wronged she was!"

Xu Qiuju sighed, threw away the crab shell in her hand, and spat: "Sister Zheng comforted her for a long time before Sister Zhao told her why she wanted to commit suicide. It turned out that Captain Wang disliked that Sister Zhao gave birth to only girls, so he complained a few words!"

Li Erhong added: "If it were just this, Sister Zhao wouldn't have committed suicide. It turns out that Sister Zhao almost divorced Captain Wang before she joined the army. If it weren't for the children who forced Sister Zhao to follow Captain Wang secretly, she might have been divorced by her mother-in-law!"

Tang Qiyue was confused by what she heard.

"Is it Captain Wang who wants to divorce Sister Zhao? Or is it Captain Wang's mother who wants him to divorce Sister Zhao?"

This question stumped Xu Qiuju and Li Erhong.

The two asked blankly: "What's the difference between the two?"

Tang Qiyue: ...

"My two sisters, this is a huge difference!"
