With something on her mind, and perhaps having a drowsy sleep at night, Zhao Qinglan got up on time.
But as soon as she woke up, she saw the note left by Li Huai, saying that she didn't need to work hard to make breakfast, and that he would go to the cafeteria and bring some breakfast back.
Only serving soldiers and officers are entitled to free meals in the military canteen every day.
As for family members, unless there are special circumstances, such as events, festivals, etc., the military canteen may allow family members to come and eat together.
For those who come to visit relatives from far away, it is normal for them to be taken to the cafeteria for a few meals. Normally, according to regulations, the cafeteria does not provide free meals to family members.
However, every meal in the cafeteria will be cooked a little extra. Occasionally, the officers will take some back to eat, which is not so harsh.
If you don’t cook at home and often bring a lot of food, you will have to pay for food stamps yourself.
Just like before when Zhao Qinglan returned to her hometown and there was no one to cook, Li Huai often had to bring meals back to his children, but he didn't want to be criticized for such trivial matters, so he had to pay for it out of his own pocket.
After reading the words on the note, Zhao Qinglan smiled happily.
Since he performed so well, I can temporarily forgive his recklessness last night.
There is no need to rush to make breakfast, and she has a lot of time.
When Zhao Qinglan went out, the children hadn't gotten up yet, so she simply didn't call them. She just turned to Wu Mei and said something.
Wu Mei only knew that she went to the city to help her mother and sister. Because Li Huai applied for a car, she found out that Sun's store had opened.
When I saw Zhao Qinglan, I couldn't help but ask a few questions.
Even for Wu Mei, Zhao Qinglan would not say too much, she only said that the opening went smoothly and the business was okay.
As for how to do it, she wouldn't go into details.
Fortunately, Wu Mei doesn't care about this.
Zhao Qinglan left Wu Mei's house and rushed to where she was riding in the car.
Yang Qingmin followed him for a long time yesterday, and since he has to go to work today, he naturally won't go.
But he didn't feel at ease if his wife went alone, so he thought about making a special trip after he got a camera.
Otherwise, even if he asked his wife to go there many times, he still wouldn't be able to get much strong evidence.
Seeing no disturbing people in the car, Zhao Qinglan relaxed, squinted her eyes and continued to rest.
When she arrived at the store, as she expected, there was no longer a huge 50% discount, but only a 20% discount. There were obviously fewer customers entering the store than yesterday.
However, the guests who had it yesterday thought it tasted good, so they went back to the neighbors and relatives and friends to talk about it. Today there were many new faces that they had not seen yesterday.
There were fewer guests, and without the help of Li Huai and Da Wa, Zhao Qinglan, mother and daughter, were able to cope with it.
Mainly because of the high-intensity practical training yesterday, they are all much more proficient today.
In the afternoon, before the bus to pick up the children from the army arrived, the store was sold out and closed.
Li Huai and the children are not here today, and Zhao Qinglan does not plan to stay to cook and eat.
She didn't make breakfast or lunch for the children, so she thought she would make up for them during lunch.
The four mother and daughter counted all the sales together and found that they still sold more than 200 bowls at 20% off, which was still more than 40 yuan.
This made Mrs. Sun and her two daughters extremely happy.
In their opinion, wontons are not that cheap nowadays, and they don’t know how many people will come to eat them, but they didn’t expect that there are still many people.
After counting the account, he asked his mother and sister to put the money away, and Zhao Qinglan hurried to take the car home.
She really didn't have time to help sort out the work left in the store. Fortunately, Ms. Sun and the others didn't care about it.
When leaving the store, Zhao Qinglan also brought home a few big bones and some minced meat.
She was not at home, so she ate food from the military canteen for breakfast, lunch and lunch. The second baby became obviously depressed.
He even thought that he would have to get up early tomorrow, and even if it was hard work, he would follow his stepmother into the city.
Although Da Wa and Xiao Duo's appetites were affected by the change in the source of the food, they did not react as strongly as Er Wa.
When Zhao Qinglan came home and found out that she had made delicious food, the second baby's unhappiness was instantly wiped away.
As soon as the family finished eating, Wei Hong came over.
There was nothing she could do. In fact, she wanted to see Zhao Qinglan during the day, but Zhao Qinglan was not there.
Seeing Wei Hong coming, Zhao Qinglan motioned to Li Huai to take the children to clean up first, while she took Wei Hong inside to talk.
Wei Hong was very envious when she saw Li Huai washing the dishes and cleaning up so naturally.
Over the years, she has been doing almost all the work at home. Even if her husband occasionally helps out, she may not be willing to do so. She feels very sour when comparing the two.
That's it. It's really ridiculous that my husband still looks down on Li Huai.
Li Huai has a higher position than her husband, looks better than her husband, is considerate of his wife, and has several well-behaved children.
No matter where he compares, others are better than him, so where does he have the confidence to look down on others?
"Sister Wei Hong, have you encountered any difficulties again?" Seeing her silence, Zhao Qinglan asked curiously.
Hearing this, Wei Hong smiled, "No, it's my test results that came out."
"What's the result?" Zhao Qinglan asked eagerly.
When it comes to this, Wei Hong's mood is a little complicated. "The test results show that there is nothing wrong with me." But if she is fine, and they have not had a child for so many years, then there is a high possibility that there is something wrong with her husband.
"Great, as long as you have no problem." Zhao Qinglan was happy for her from the bottom of her heart.
However, seeing that there was not much joy on Wei Hong's face, she paused and said, "How did Camp Commander Naqu react?"
Wei Hong smiled bitterly. "I haven't told him yet."
She felt that since she and her husband had a fight that day, the gap between them had become wider and wider.
Moreover, if she wanted to tell her husband about this matter, she felt that there might still be a dispute between the two, so after going to get the inspection report during the day, she did not tell her husband immediately.
Zhao Qinglan was very transparent and could guess some of her concerns after just a moment's thought.
But what's the point of prolonging this matter?
"Sister Wei Hong, Commander Qu will know about this sooner or later."
"I know, Qinglan, you said, if there is really a problem with Laoqu and it cannot be produced, what should we do in the future?" Wei Hong became a little confused.
"It's up to you and your wife to face this problem together and discuss it together. Sister Wei Hong, I can't give you much advice."
"Thank you Qinglan, for listening to me nagging so much. I'm going back then. You should rest early."
After sending Wei Hong out and standing at the door, Zhao Qinglan sighed quietly.
It’s true that every family has its own sutras that are difficult to recite.
Fortunately, there is nothing that bothers her too much at home.
Happiness is sometimes expressed through comparison.
"Qing Lan, what's wrong with you?" Li Huai asked nervously from behind.
