In the morning, Zhao Qinglan was in a daze when she heard something moving outside, and she quickly sat up.
"Qing Lan, are you awake?" Li Huai asked over there.
"Well, you've woken up a long time ago?" She was a little surprised when she heard Li Huai's voice.
"No, a little earlier than you."
"What's this outside?" Zhao Qinglan was confused and started to put on her clothes and shoes.
"It seems like mom and the others." Thinking that his mother-in-law didn't know what she was doing outside, he was too embarrassed to go out alone.
"I'll go out and take a look." She dressed and opened the door.
As soon as he went out, Zhao Qinglan saw his mother and sisters busy at work.
"Qinglan, you're up." Sun smiled.
"Mom, what are you doing?"
"Didn't you say yesterday that you had finished eating the steamed buns, so we would steam some steamed buns for you."
From the time my daughter returned home to when I brought them here, I no longer know how much money I spent.
Ms. Sun didn't mention it, but she kept remembering in her heart that she couldn't help her daughter much now, so she could only do what she could.
Guessing her mother's psychology, Zhao Qinglan didn't say anything, but just joined in.
After a while, Li Huai got dressed and came out.
Seeing this son-in-law whom she was very satisfied with, Mrs. Sun was very enthusiastic.
Li Huai was not a talkative person, and after a while he felt a little overwhelmed. He hurriedly said that he was going to the military camp, and then broke off the conversation.
Before leaving, he did not forget to ask Zhao Qinglan to call his office if anything happens.
After he left, Mrs. Sun asked.
"Qinglan, my son-in-law doesn't even eat anything?"
"Mom, you don't have to worry about him. The army has a canteen. He can get ready-made food when he goes to the canteen."
"Hey, being a soldier is great."
Listening to his mother's emotion, Zhao Qinglan smiled and said nothing.
Being a soldier means taking care of food, housing and allowances, but it is not that easy. The responsibilities are also heavy.
Li Huai is a high-ranking soldier. If he were a low-ranking ordinary soldier, his family members would not even be qualified to accompany the army, let alone a separate residence.
When Xiaoduo and the others got up, they had a steaming breakfast.
After breakfast, Zhao Qinglan looked at the clock at home and quickly called her mother and sister to clean up.
If they hurry up now, they can still catch up with the army's bus that takes the children into the city to go to school.
"Will you guys follow me into the city, or stay at home?" Zhao Qinglan asked the children's opinions.
"Mom, I want to follow you." Xiaoduo immediately raised his hand.
Erwa looked at his elder brother. He had gone back there last time, and he felt that the city was actually like that. Besides, it was also very cold now.
Anyway, when his stepmother comes back, he can still eat the food cooked by her.
"What are you doing in the city?" Dawa asked without answering.
Zhao Qinglan did not bother with the children and explained seriously. "Grandma and aunts rented a house and haven't finished it yet. I'll help them clean up the house."
"Then you go ahead, I'm not going." Cleaning up the house is no fun at all.
Erwa immediately followed her brother's lead and expressed his stance, "I'm not going either."
Seeing that neither the eldest nor the other children were going, Xiaoduo also became hesitant.
Looking at her daughter's appearance, Zhao Qinglan smiled. "If Xiaoduo doesn't want to go, just stay at home with your brother and brother. Mom won't care about you when she goes to work."
"Well, then I won't go either."
Mrs. Sun felt strange when she saw her daughter, granddaughter, and other children having discussions with each other.
In their village, no adult would ask children for their opinions when doing something.
On the other hand, Zhao Qingzhu and Zhao Qingju thought this was great.
The mother and daughter packed some food from home. Zhao Qinglan went to the next door to inform Wu Mei and asked her to take care of some children, and then she hurriedly left with her mother and sister.
When they rushed over, the military cards for people entering the city were about to be activated.
Seeing that Zhao Qinglan brought a few unfamiliar faces, the military wife who came to the city with her also became curious and asked.
Everyone was enthusiastic when they found out that she was Zhao Qinglan's mother and sister.
After driving into the city, Zhao Qinglan and the others did not rush to the rented house first. Instead, they went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy the missing daily necessities.
When she left home, she took all the tickets with her because she had just made a big purchase before and some of the tickets were not enough. She even borrowed some when she went to find Wu Mei.
I bought a lot of things piecemeal, but thanks to the large number of people, I was able to get them.
After shopping, I sent my mother and the others to the rental house. It was almost time for my military card to go back.
After thinking about it, Zhao Qinglan was still worried about leaving her mother and sisters behind, so she rushed over and told the waiting soldiers that she would wait for the bus to pick up the children back in the afternoon.
After saying that, she went to find the phone and called Li Huai.
"I won't go back at noon. You still have to worry about the children's meals. Now that the steamed buns are available, you can bring some food back from the cafeteria."
Li Huai also guessed that Zhao Qinglan probably still wanted to help her mother and sister, so he agreed without asking.
But before hanging up the phone, he still asked one more question.
"Are you coming back tonight?"
"Come on, I'll take the car that picks up the children in the afternoon." The rented place should be almost tidied up today, and my mother and sister can live in it.
"That's good, I understand."
After hanging up the phone, Li Huai felt excited.
He should be able to get his wish tonight, right?
However, he didn't know if his mother-in-law and two sisters-in-law would come back to live there. He became depressed again when he thought that several of them might come back.
Alas, she is obviously his wife, but he cannot touch her. Who can understand his suffering as a man?
Yu Huimin knew the name and department of the girl his son wanted to pursue, so he could naturally check it out very quickly.
But when the results came out, they said that the girl was from an ordinary family. She lived out of town and seemed to only go to and from the classroom, canteen, dormitory and library on weekdays.
There are no complex social relationships, nor does he seem to have any emotional entanglements with others.
Is such a girl still capable and able to find someone to beat her son?
Yu Huimin is not stupid. Thinking about it, she thinks it is unlikely.
But if it wasn't this girl, where did the person who beat his son come from?
She couldn't figure it out herself, so she had to go to her son and ask for help.
As soon as Yu Huimin opened her son's door, she saw her son hiding things in a panic.
"Xiaowei, what are you doing?"
Li Wei sat down immediately and swallowed nervously. "No, I didn't do anything."
Yu Huimin walked over directly, pushed her son away, and pulled out a book from under his pillow.
Just after turning two pages, Yu Huimin blushed and said, "What are you reading?"
Li Wei lowered his head and said nothing, only feeling annoyed that it was over, why did his mother find out.
This was because he saw someone secretly looking at this in the dormitory. It was said that it was kept secretly by a wealthy family in the past, and they swore to never disclose it to anyone, so they lent it to him.
Originally, she wanted to ask her son about business, but now Yu Huimin couldn't say anything.
Take the book and run out.
"Hey, Mom, give it back to me, it's not my thing."
"This kind of trash should not appear in our home."
Yu Huimin ignored her son's cry, took the book and left.
When she returned to the bedroom, the blush on her face had not faded.
She never expected that her son would be watching erotic pictures in the room!
If someone with a heart knew about this indescribable thing and reported it, their old man, Mr. Li, wouldn't even be able to live with it.
She had just taken out a basin with matches and planned to destroy it. When the matches were lit, she suddenly blew them out again.
Or she could just hide it and tell her son to burn it.
Maybe she can still use it in the future, after all, this thing is not something you can see casually.
