Zhan Chunying, who spoke without restraint, received a slap from her mother and glares from her two sisters-in-law.
Which sister-in-law has nothing better to do than to compare these things?
Zhan's wife picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and stuffed it into Zhan Chunying's mouth: "Even if there is food, it can't stop you from eating!"
Tang Qiyue handed Zhan Chunying a bowl of porridge and said, "Have some porridge, little sister!"
Both wives in the family had the same reaction, not to mention Brother Zhan and Mother Zhan. Instead, Zhan Zeye looked calm. He took the porridge and poured it into his mouth, seemingly unable to feel the heat.
Tang Qiyue's eyes widened at the sight, and she was so curious that she wanted to pry open Zhan Zeye's mouth to see if his throat was okay.
"Eat slowly, the porridge is too hot and will burn your esophagus. If it gets inflamed, it will be very painful!"
Tang Qiyue whispered a reminder that she had seen refugees drink hot porridge, which ended up burning their throats and causing them to die from the pain.
When Zhan's mother heard what Tang Qiyue said, she slapped Zhan Zeye on the back and said, "This is home, not your army. Drink slowly. No one is urging you to go to the battlefield!"
Zhan Zeye had long been accustomed to being beaten by his mother. He clicked his tongue and raised his eyelids to glance at Tang Qiyue beside him.
His expression was a little strange, but he didn't say anything in the end. Instead, he ate a lot slower.
The Zhan family is just an ordinary family. They don’t have so many rules at the dinner table. They don’t keep silent while eating or sleeping. This makes Tang Qiuyue a little uncomfortable, but it’s not that she dislikes it. Instead, she feels it is very warm.
She was raised as a noble lady by her mother Tang, but her mother herself was not a good role model, so she only learned the rules of not talking while eating or sleeping.
She was reincarnated into the end of the world, which was already the late stage of the apocalypse. Although she had parents, they were always busy working outside to make a living. She grew up in a childcare center and was later placed in the care of a related institution. She felt almost no family affection.
In the end times, what we learn is how to survive in a mysterious and ever-changing environment. Children are no longer innocent, but have numb expressions on their faces, learning mechanically and obeying mechanically.
What they get in return is a life that is barely enough to make ends meet, and family affection becomes the most insignificant thing.
At this moment, Tang Qiyue listened to the chattering of the Zhan family. Everyone seemed alive, which made her feel dazed.
While she was daydreaming, a pair of chopsticks suddenly appeared in the bowl.
"If you can't eat, don't force yourself!"
Zhan Zeye directly scooped the leftovers from Tang Qiyue's untouched bowl into his own bowl, and didn't think there was anything wrong with eating her leftovers.
This scene made the Zhan family quiet down, and they all looked at Zhan Zeye.
"What are you looking at? Or do you guys not want to eat anymore? Give it all to me?"
Zhan Zeye is at the age when his metabolism is the strongest. If he eats as much as he wants in this meal, he can eat five kilograms of rice. He can finish all the food cooked at home by himself.
Zhan Chunying remembered her brother's huge stomach capacity and immediately urged her nephew to eat faster: "Dahai, eat quickly, your uncle's stomach is a bottomless pit, it can never be filled, be careful he will steal your food!"
The aunt and nephew stopped talking nonsense and started eating like crazy.
The other members of the Zhan family also reacted and sped up, fearing that Zhan Zeye would snatch the food.
Tang Qiyue was a little dumbfounded when she saw this scene, and her eyes were full of curiosity when she looked at Zhan Zeye's belly.
Zhan Zeye touched his nose and felt embarrassed.
"You'll have to eat a bite!"
Zhan Zeye patted Tang Qiyue's head, put down his bowl and chopsticks and stood up. He heard the movement of a car. This was the car he had asked his old leader to get last night.
The daughter-in-law is going to visit her parents-in-law. As her husband, it’s fine if she doesn’t attend the wedding, but the visit cannot be shabby.
These are not the reasons why Zhan Zeye wants to borrow the car. It is mainly because of the free money.
Whenever he thought about the day when his father-in-law would find out about the marriage he had carefully planned and finally agree to it, he would get excited just thinking about that scene.
With the idea that if he was going to do something, he had to do it on a big scale, Zhan Zeye even changed into his military uniform, with a murderous look on his face that was particularly intimidating.
After Tang Qiuyue had finished her meal, Zhan's mother pulled her to see the return gift prepared for her. It was obvious that it was prepared with great care.
"I know your parents are separated, so I prepared two. Although they are not expensive, they are considered as a courtesy. What do you think?"
Zhan's mother was a little nervous. She had seen the dowry that the Tang family had prepared for Tang Qiyue. Just based on those twelve large boxes, she felt that even if she emptied her family's money, she would not be able to prepare a comparable return gift.
Tang Qiyue said that it was already good enough, and in fact there was no need to prepare so much. Tang's father's calculations were clattering. He didn't want to become relatives with the Zhan family at all, but because of the Zhan family's clean family background, he would be able to protect her dowry in any way he could.
The person who came today was Chen Dazhuang. He helped load the things into the car and acted as the driver.
"Sister-in-law, should we go to your father's house first? Or should we go back to your mother's house first?"
In order to support Zhan Zeye, Chen Dazhuang even wore a new military uniform today.
The military rank system was abolished this year, and rank could no longer be seen from epaulettes, but the fact that they were the first to put on new uniforms showed the importance of their troops.
What's more, the four pockets and the red collar badges all hinted at some information, as well as the weapons on their waists. Anyone familiar with the military could tell at a glance that their identities were not simple.
Zhan Zeye and Chen Dazhuang belong to the navy. Their clothes are dark blue and ironed straight, and they wear a pair of dark brown military boots on their feet.
When they arrived at the Tang family's door, Tang's father didn't know whether Zhan Zeye was dead or alive, and didn't take Tang Qiyue's return home seriously, so naturally he didn't attach much importance to this return home.
But when he heard the housemaid come in and shout that a jeep with a special pass had arrived at the gate, Tang's father jumped up from his recliner.
This kind of car is different from the car he uses. It cannot be bought with money. Only people with special status can own it.
Without bothering to tidy up his clothes, Tang's father ran to the door and saw a jeep parked at the door. The driver was indeed in military uniform. He ignored Tang's smiling father and opened the back door with an expressionless face.
A pair of military boots appeared in Tang's father's sight, followed by a long leg falling from the car.
You have to know that the base of the jeep is still very high, but the man's butt has not left the seat yet and his military boots have already touched the ground, which shows how long his legs are.
Following Tang's father's shocked gaze, he saw his cheap son-in-law, whom he was sure was doomed, appear in front of him alive.
The key point is that he was wearing a dark blue military uniform, with his sword-like eyebrows furrowed under the brim of his white hat, and his eyes were as sharp as a lion, which almost made Tang's father, an old man who had experienced many storms, feel weak in the knees.
He subconsciously grabbed his wife's arm beside him, his face twitching. If you didn't know him, you would think he was having a epileptic seizure.
