"Oh, look at Battalion Commander Dou, he is worthy of being a city man, but he is rich." Niu Cuihua was envious in her heart.

But what she didn't expect was that this was just the beginning.

Because, within two days, another large Jiefang car drove to the family yard.

Dou Yuanchao and Annie received the letter and hurried downstairs. Seeing that the appliances and dowry were shipped, they found a few young soldiers to help.

“…This, is this the TV?”

"Oh, what is this?"

"God, there are also sewing machines, why are there so many good things?"

Now, not only Niu Cuihua, who was so lively, ran over, but also the neighbors who were going up and downstairs surrounded him.

"Sister Niu, that's a refrigerator. You can put leftover food in it and it won't break for several days."

The person who spoke was a woman in her forties. She was wearing a short-sleeved shirt with gray ladies' trousers underneath. She spoke Mandarin with a slight accent.

"Miss Yang family, this is the refrigerator."

Niu Cuihua stared at the two little soldiers helping to open the packaging, and carefully lifted a light green double-door refrigerator from it.

She wanted to reach out to touch her, but she was afraid that she would be touched badly.

In fact, Niu Cuihua also saw a refrigerator when she went to the city to visit the department store.

However, because it was far apart, I was shocked by the price quoted by the salesperson and didn't dare to go up and see it.

She just put on a packaging carton again, but she didn't recognize it for a while.

She remembered it very clearly that last year, this double-door refrigerator was more than 1,000 yuan.

The key is that you can’t buy it if you have money, and the department store is out of stock all year round.

There are overseas Chinese stores that sell them, but the price is more expensive, and the other is that they require foreign exchange coupons.

In that kind of place, Niu Cuihua didn't even dare to enter.

"Yes, this is a refrigerator, and it is imported from abroad." The middle-aged woman was speaking.

When Annie heard the voice, she looked at her and confirmed that the man was the family of a battalion commander above the building, named Yang Jie, from a northern province with a high school diploma, and was a primary school teacher before following the army.

After following the army, Yang Jie was arranged to be a teacher in the town near the military camp.

Because this primary school was jointly built by local governments and troops, children from nearby schools and soldiers all went to school here.

She claimed to be a cultural person and came from the city, so she didn't have much contact with the rural military wife led by Niu Cuihua.

On weekdays, I just say hello and say a few polite words.

Yang Jie looked down on Niu Cuihua and others' rusticity and stinginess. Niu Cuihua and others also thought that Yang Jie and others were stinking and particular.

However, Yang Jie and other military wives in the city are not too many. Compared with rural military wives such as Niu Cuihua, they seem to be at a disadvantage.

Now that the family of the Second Battalion Chief’s family has arrived, I heard that they are not only from the city, but also from college students.

Yang Jie has long been thinking of making friends with Annie, but she has been busy taking exams for her children these days and has not been able to come.

Today, there was still too much noise downstairs. Yang Jie couldn't sit still, so she ran down to take a look.

It didn't matter if this was not a big deal, but Yang Jie suddenly realized that it seemed that the person from the second battalion commander's family was very different from them.

Whether it is appearance, temperament, or clothes and jewelry that look very expensive, Yang Jie, who is proud, is actually a bit weak.

And those household appliances that were moved in like flowing water made Yang Jie envious.

Although she was not as fussy as Niu Cuihua, her heart was already churning - my goodness, TVs, refrigerators, washing machines and sewing machines, and they were all famous brands, and some were even imported from abroad!

These things, just take out, can attract the envy of countless people.

The second battalion commander's family is well, and they are all matched.

Just like their family, she and her husband both have wages, and they earn at least 300 yuan a month.

In addition to sending money to parents in my hometown, there are more than 200 yuan a month.

Yang Jie can also be considered a good life. Occasionally making new clothes and buying some snow cream is already her luxury as a woman.

In a year, Yang Jie can save 2,000 yuan, but even so, she can't bear to buy big items such as TVs and refrigerators.

Seeing these electrical appliances, Yang Jie couldn't help but think of "why, go buy one too."

But, soon she gave up the idea.

I bought a TV, but didn’t the neighbors around me still come from home to watch TV?

I bought a refrigerator, haha, most neighbors may be embarrassed, but those shameless people will definitely bring their own leftovers.

It's nothing to put aside some leftovers, but if those people get used to it, they will take away their own food, then that's all--

As for washing machines, you can’t buy them. I won’t mention the ones that cost water and electricity. I will definitely ask for help if I wash the bed sheets upstairs and downstairs.

Yang Jie is a little obsessed with cleanliness. Looking at the shiny cotton jackets and bedding full of urine, she usually feels disgusting.

When Yang Jie thought that if she bought a washing machine, those stores would wash the cotton jackets and bedding from home, she would be unhappy!

If you don’t buy it, you must not buy it.

Thinking of those top military wives, Yang Jie's envy for Annie disappeared instantly, and instead she felt inexplicable sympathy and pitifulness.

Annie was sensitive and quickly noticed the change in Yang Jie's eyes.

"Are you a family member of the first battalion commander?" Annie took the opportunity to pour tea for the young soldiers and poured water for Niu Cuihua, Yang Jie and other families who came to see the fun.

Annie handed Yang Jie the British white porcelain gold-edged teacup he bought from the Overseas Chinese store and greeted her with a smile.

"My name is Yang Jie, and our family is the battalion commander of the first battalion." Yang Jie generously introduced to Annie.

She took the teacup and found that the quilt was extremely delicate. She felt her pity for Anne in her heart: Tsk tsk, such a good cup must be very valuable, don't be seen by those people, otherwise-

"My name is An Nihong." Annie was a little puzzled why the other party showed a pity, and it was so obvious.

Annie looked around and found that Niu Cuihua and several military wives were watching around the TV and refrigerator. There was no one else around them.

Annie lowered her voice and said in a low voice: "Sister-in-law Yang, I'm a newcomer and don't know much about our military compound. I think you are also kind-hearted. If there is anything, please give me more advice."

Annie's compliments made Yang Jie very helpful.

When she faced Annie just now, she was a little weak, but now, Yang Jie feels that she is an old senior and is indeed qualified to give Annie a few words.

She took a sip of tea, looked around, and then said softly, "Xiao An, I think you are also a well-educated person, but you are too soft-hearted. Let me tell you, our military compound is from all over the world." There are all kinds of birds in the forest.

Annie raised her eyebrows, oh, this is a prelude to the best appearance.

Sure enough, Yang Jie whispered, "I'm not saying bad things about people behind my back, but there are a few people you need to pay attention to, especially the one you are opposite..."
