Chapter 22 The rough man comes to see his wife
  An Haitang smiled, put his hands in his pockets, and walked briskly to the canteen.

It was really cold outside. When I came out, I heard the weather forecast broadcast, saying that the cold air would move southward in a week, but I didn't know that the cold air from Siberia would be so strong.

She brought a cotton-padded coat and a sweater. These thick clothes could withstand the coldest winter in 2020, but in the s, these clothes seemed a bit thin.

Since the past two days, many classmates' families have rushed to deliver thick cotton-padded coats and quilts before it snowed. An Haitang shrank to the cafeteria, looking at the thick cotton-padded coats of her classmates, her envious tears turned into two lines of snot clearing her nose.

"An Haitang!"

The magnetic bass was so melodious that she couldn't believe her ears.

"cough……"

An Haitang slowly turned around and stood opposite Wen Wu. He was wearing a military coat and a snow cap, and he was carrying a plastic bag tightly tied up on his shoulder.

Compared with the petite and exquisite her, he stood in front of her like a wall.

"Why are you here so early!" An Haitang was surprised. A gust of cold wind blew, and she crossed her arms and shivered.

Wen Wu didn't say anything, put down the plastic bag, took off his coat, shook off the snowflakes, and put it on her body.

It was really like a child putting on his father's clothes, with the hems of his clothes dragging to the ground.

"You are so short..."

"162." An Haitang complained, that's because you are too tall! But when she was frozen like a dog, it was really comfortable to put on the military coat with his body temperature.

"How did you get here?" she asked again.

"I borrowed a tractor from the village. I was supposed to come two days earlier. Wenwen caught a cold and had a fever, so we were delayed." He carried the bag and walked with her to the canteen.

"Are Wenwen feeling better?" An Haitang rolled up the sides of his coat and followed closely behind his long legs.

"It's better, but she still has a cough. I'll buy her some medicine later." Wenwu replied.

"I'll make an order in a moment, and you go and get the medicine according to the order."

"Oh, okay."

"Mom doesn't have a cough anymore, right? I'll make an order later and let her take care of it for another week to consolidate it."

"Mom is fine. She looks much better. She worked hard day and night to make your cotton coat. I don't know if it fits you well."

"Ah! Thank you for your hard work, Mom!"

The two of them were chatting together in the canteen, and immediately attracted a lot of attention. An Haitang suddenly became a little conspicuous person. Without waiting for the students to ask, he introduced each one he saw: "Hey, my child's father, give me clothes and quilts." Here you go! My mother-in-law made my cotton coat for me!"

"Your lover is so handsome!"

"That's great. Your lover and mother-in-law really care about you!"

In the 1980s, the title "lover" sounded strangely nice.

An Haitang opened the bag, took out the new cotton-padded clothes made by her mother-in-law, and put them on happily. The pink plaid mid-length cotton-padded jacket is very exquisite in workmanship. It also pinches the waist, making it neither fat nor thin!
  "You sit down for a while while I go buy breakfast. I must be very hungry after running around most of the night!" She found a seat for Wenwu, put the military coat on him, and asked him to sit down and rest first.

He didn't speak much in civil and military terms. He nodded and greeted his classmates, and silently went to bring two bowls of rice porridge.

"Brother Wenwu!" An Xiaocha came in from outside.

Wen Wu stood up, nodded and said, "Hello, Xiaocha."

An Xiaocha looked at the plastic bag at his feet, gave him a resentful look, and whispered, "All of this should have been mine."

Wen Wu moved his mouth and frowned when he saw that she was wearing very thin clothes.

An Xiaocha's eyes turned red instantly, and she choked and said, "Because of her intervention, I have been miserable and miserable all my life..." She left after saying this, looking at her back with a complicated look on her face.

An Haitang watched this scene from a distance and knew that An Xiaocha was acting like a monster. This damn girl has changed her role. Why is she still acting so affectionately?
  She came over with a bag of steamed buns, filled Wenwu's military kettle with boiling water, and bought him a bowl of rice porridge.

While Wenwu was eating steamed buns, An Haitang took a pen and paper from his pocket, wrote two lists, drew a picture, and circled a few acupuncture points.

"If Wenwen coughs badly, rub these two acupuncture points for her."

After An Haitang showed him the drawings, he reached out and held his hand, asked him to flatten his arm, and taught him to find acupuncture points.

Her fingers were slender and white, a little cool, which was in sharp contrast to his rough hands. When her skin touched, she could clearly feel his nervousness and vigilance.

"remember?"

"remember."

An Haitang pursed her lips and smiled, then let go of his hand: "It's freezing and snowy. Actually, I'm not very cold. It's hard for you to run so far."

"I just happen to have to go to the city to do some errands." He said calmly, feeling a little confused and lowering his head to hide it.

An Haitang glanced at him and curled his lips.

After the two of them finished eating, with ten minutes left, Wenwu helped her deliver her things to the dormitory.

He took out a few big coupons from his pocket and gave them to her and said, "I helped others run the car for two days and earned some reward. You can take it to buy some fruits and snacks."

An Haitang hurriedly refused: "I don't want it. The money I brought is enough. You can keep it, or you can bring some food back from the city. It's snowing. Please store more food at home."

Wen Wu frowned, this woman has always only asked for unlimited things from him, when did she know how to refuse, and she said such considerate words!
  "I have money to buy things." He forced the money to her, turned around and left.

An Haitang accepted the money, locked the bedroom door, and followed him downstairs.

She walked him to the school gate and repeatedly told him to be careful.

"Don't delay in the city. You're afraid of freezing. Don't go out in the car on such a cold day. It's not safe. Take good care of your health first. After spring, you can go back to your career."

He couldn't help but glance at her, but said nothing.

"I'm going to take the exam, you go ahead."

"Okay." He finally said.

An Haitang walked over and helped him turn up the collar of his coat and tie his hat tighter. She looked at him and smiled, then turned and trotted back to the classroom.

Wen Wu stood staring at her back for a moment, always feeling that a lot of things were wrong, and couldn't figure out why.

But she was indeed doing good, and even her eyes had become clear and innocent, no longer the disgusting cunning and mean, or pretentious and charming person before. This change made him feel very comfortable.

The snow was getting heavier and heavier. Wenwu started the walking tractor and was about to leave when he was stopped by a middle-aged man coming out of the school.

"Are you An Haitang's lover?"

"Yes."

"I am her class teacher, Teacher Yang. Please wait a moment and I will report her situation to you."

Wenwu turned off the tractor and asked coldly: "What happened to her?"

"An Haitang learns to do nothing, hangs out with boys all day long, forms cliques with boys, isolates and bullies her sister An Xiaocha. I have warned her many times, and I hope you will also have a good talk with her. A married pregnant woman has no idea. Respect yourself!" Teacher Yang said, spitting and filled with righteous indignation.
