Chapter 1101 Beginning of sixty: The best daughter 18(1/2)
"It's still the case that your parents, Youth League, are so caring and help you with your work when you get home. It's like your uncle doesn't know how to help you when his bottle of oil falls over."
Two tables of food were prepared tonight, one for men and one for women. Ji Changqing and the other grown men were eating and drinking there, while the fat aunt and the women were chatting, praising Xihe's life with smiles on their faces.
Moisturizing and comforting.
However, he said he was disgusted, but his face was full of smiles. I think he was very satisfied with his current life.
Xihe smiled and praised him back. Battalion Commander Zhang was an old man in the army. His two sons were also soldiers. He had a good relationship with Ji Changqing. In the past, when Ji Changqing didn't have a wife, the fat aunt would invite people home for dinner during the holidays.
Now that I have a wife, I am very friendly even watching Xihe.
After having enough wine and food, the fat aunt and her family left quickly, leaving only two people in the house.
Ji Changqing washed the dishes, Xihe cleaned the table and the garbage on the floor, cleaned up, closed the door, and the two got into bed.
The north wind roared outside the house, making the window lattice rattle. In the blink of an eye, it had been four or five months since Xihe arrived in the army. It was already winter, and the weather had turned cold. The two of them leaned against the quilt and fell asleep warmly in a short while.
.
It was daylight, and when Xihe woke up, Ji Changqing had already gone to training, with breakfast warming in the pot.
She opened the quilt and rolled out a glass bottle. The water was warm. Ji Changqing must have filled it with hot water to warm her feet out of fear that she would be cold.
The sun is nice today, but the wind is a bit cold and it hurts my face. The children are running wildly all over the yard.
The child next door cried loudly because he didn't want to eat, so he was beaten by his mother. He cried even louder, and the uniform sound of soldiers training could be heard in the distance.
Xihe had just finished breakfast and was about to take a nap when there was a knock on the door of his house.
The fat aunt and several young wives walked in with smiles and carried a basket filled with wool and shoe soles. Xihe knew at the first sight that he would not be able to sleep, so he had to dress up to entertain them.
What do a group of women do when they get together? Of course, they chat about all kinds of gossip and interesting stories.
Xihe listened for a while as the two of them were quarreling and crying. As a result, they seemed to be alone again this morning, which was quite interesting.
"Oh, you are all here? It's easy for me to find you."
A woman walked in at the door carrying a gift box.
She has fashionable curly hair, a long coat, high heels, and a plump face with a pair of powerful red phoenix eyes. After scanning the circle, everyone looked at Xihe with a smile: "Is this Battalion Commander Ji's lover?"
The fat aunt quickly introduced to Xihe: "This is Commander Ge's lover, Comrade Bai Lan."
While Xihe was greeting people, Bailan sat down unceremoniously, put her hands on her legs, and painted beautiful nails on her fingers. Several young wives immediately came up to her and praised her outfit.
Xihe looked at it with a smile. It was easy to see that Bai Lan came from a good family by her dress.
Fat Aunt told her about the situation in the compound. Except for the regiment leader’s lover who lives in the city, the three battalion commanders all live in the compound. One is Ji Changqing, the other is Fat Aunt’s man, Camp Zhang, and the other is Ge.
The battalion commander.
Camp Commander Ge is young and handsome, and his wife is also rich and powerful. It is said that her family is a high-ranking official.
The other wives in the compound were all very fawning over her. Well, this was what a young daughter-in-law said in private, but Bai Lan's popularity was undeniable.
The timing of her arrival was unlucky, Bai Lan happened to be returning to her parents' home, and the two parties never met.
Today is the first time we meet.
Bai Lan motioned for them to open the gift box: "My cousin brought it back from abroad, you guys have a try."
The little wives exclaimed: "What is this black thing?"
Bai Lan glanced at it and explained arrogantly: "I'm tired of eating chocolate."
When everyone tasted it, they all praised Cousin Bailan for being so good, but they were reluctant to eat it. After tasting it, they would put it back in their pockets and give it to their children, or share it with their men.
Bai Lan looked at Xi He: "Xia He, I didn't know that Ji Changqing got married as soon as he returned home. I'll give you a wedding gift next time."
Xihe took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, you're welcome, but no need."
Bai Lan looked her up and down: "Oh, I really didn't expect Lao Ji to get married like this. I thought he would be with Nurse Zhou. After all, Nurse Zhou's feelings for him are obvious to all. But now... I don't know what Nurse Zhou is now."
how's it going."
Xihe: "..."
Everyone: "..."
Everyone's faces froze for a moment. What does Bai Lan want to do?
Xihe put down the cup in his hand, his smile unchanged: "Maybe there is no fate, maybe you will hear the good news from Nurse Zhou in a while."
He actually did something like this, who is disgusting?
Her favorable impression of Bai Lan dropped instantly, and she decided to have less to do with this woman in the future.
The fat aunt quickly smoothed things over: "Oh, it's almost noon, the children will be back soon, let's go home and cook." She dragged all the young wives and left quickly.
At noon, Ji Changqing came back, and Xihe didn't show anything about what happened today, and still smiled beautifully.
Ji Changqing gave her the lean meat in the bowl, waited for Xihe to be full, then finished the rest of the dishes, washed the dishes and chopsticks, wiped his hands, hugged her and rested for a while, and then went to train again in the afternoon.
The fat aunt had been thinking about this and came to see Xihe in the afternoon: "She opens her mouth like that. Don't pay attention to her. Changqing has nothing to do with Nurse Zhou. He is sincere to you."
She has never seen Ji Changqing be so considerate to anyone, from washing dishes and cooking to doing all kinds of service.
Xihe smiled and shook his head: "Auntie, I know, I believe Changqing will not mess around."
The fat aunt breathed a sigh of relief and smiled: "That's good."
She was afraid that Xihe would get lost in thinking and get into trouble with Ji Changqing, which would hurt the couple's relationship.
Xihe wouldn't make a fuss. I guess Bailan had a good relationship with that nurse Zhou, or maybe he just didn't like her and deliberately tried to spite her. She was stupid and wanted to be fooled.
"Auntie, nurse this week..."
The fat aunt quickly explained that she was just a little girl from the health center, about twenty-three years old, not as good-looking as her, and told her not to worry.
Xihe smiled, the fat aunt was afraid that she would be jealous.
The topic was dropped, and the two of them talked and laughed for a while. The fat aunt's grandson woke up, and the fat aunt hurried home to take care of the child.
In the evening, Ji Changqing came back, and the two of them finished their meal quietly and lay down.
A man's scorching body temperature is the best heater on a winter night. Xihe lay in his arms, the heat making him drowsy, and he immediately fell into a dream.
Two or three days passed like this, Xihe and Ji Changqing were in harmony and did not make any noise.
Bai Lan couldn't help asking her husband around the corner. As soon as Ge Haonan heard this, he knew that his daughter-in-law was meddling in other people's family affairs again. He was so angry that he asked her if she could live in peace for two days. How could Bai Lan endure it? The two of them immediately started to quarrel.
The daughter-in-law of Captain Sun's family came over to tell Xihe and couldn't help but laugh: "Thankfully it's Camp Commander Ge, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to shock her."
Bai Lan comes from a good family, has eyes on the top of her head, and speaks without scruples. She will not offend the wives and aunts in the compound if they can, but if she really marries such a person, her life will definitely be miserable.
Fortunately, Ge Haonan was not used to her, but because of this, the two of them lived a very lively and noisy life.
Xihe took this as a joke and didn't pay attention, but Ji Changqing was blocked by Ge Haonan. He blushed and apologized to him. Ji Changqing's originally smiling mouth corners immediately lowered and looked at him coldly.
Ge Haonan scratched his head: "Changqing, which day do you think is suitable? I'll treat you and your siblings to dinner and apologize to her in person."
Ji Changqing turned around directly: "No need."
Ge Haonan hurriedly chased after him. It took him a long time to get some time. He watched the person walk away and couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.
He came to the army purely for some experience and then left. But Ji Changqing was different. He would definitely go further and further on this road in the future.
His father specifically told him that he had already made arrangements with Ji Changqing and told him not to offend him easily.
Ge Haonan couldn't help but sigh. He had worked so hard to get on better terms with Ji Changqing, but once he was offended by Bai Lan again, he turned around and said, "Oh, I hope Ji Changqing's daughter-in-law is less angry and doesn't hold on to her."
Xihe heard the knock on the door and stepped on his slippers to open the door: "Changqing..."
Ji Changye stood outside the door with a cold face, threw the envelope in his hand to her, turned around and left.
Xihe looked through it and saw that it was from the publishing house. She immediately went back to her room and slowly tore it open with scissors. Inside was a few dollars and a reply letter. The content was that her poem had been used and this was the royalties.
Xihe smiled broadly and thought about what to buy.
Creaking, the door opened again, and a tall figure walked in. Xihe raised his head and rushed over with a smile: "Look, husband!"
Ji Changqing took it and looked at it, a little surprised, but he didn't expect it to be successful?
Xihe hung on his body and said happily: "The Chinese New Year is coming soon. I want to buy a cotton-padded jacket for my mother and some nutritional supplements for my parents. Do you agree?"
Money is valuable at this time, and you can buy a lot of things with just a few dollars.
In the future, she will continue to write more and earn more royalties. From now on, she will continue to buy good things for Mrs. Xia, making her an old lady that everyone in the village envies.
Of course, it would be best to take Mrs. Xia over in two years, so that she would feel more at ease.
Ji Changqing was so funny. He just succeeded once and started to feel proud.
"Okay, it's up to you."
Anyway, all the money in the family is in her hands.
Xihe couldn't help but hug him and kiss him: "Honey, you are so kind!"
Ji Changqing subconsciously looked out the window and found that no one was there, so he grabbed her cheek and lectured her: "Be more serious."
Xihe:???
It sounds like you are serious.
