She left at 12 o'clock today.
She was holding a bucket of seafood in her hand, which was a small part of her "share". Most of it was sold directly to Squad Leader Qi.
When she arrived at the door of her house and heard a child crying from inside, Qiao Qingqing's heart tightened and she immediately quickened her pace.
When I opened the door, I saw Shi Meiyun bending over to take off a kid's pants, coaxing him, "San San, be good, don't cry. Grandma will wash your dirty pants for you. It's no big deal..."
It's tiring enough to take care of one child, let alone she has three.
The little ones were just over one year old and were in their noisy prime. It was often difficult to keep an eye on one while watching the other. Whenever Shi Meijun wanted to change their poop and pee, they only wanted to play and would hum and whine and refuse to cooperate.
If Shi Meiyun let them go, the three little ones would poop in their pants while she went to the toilet; if she insisted on taking it out, the two next to her would not be able to wait and would poop in their pants before it was their turn.
If it were a normal person, they would have been unable to bear it long ago.
Not to mention spanking the baby, at least he would lose his temper and swear at people.
But Shi Meiyun is very patient.
Maybe he was worried that his son was trapped in the jungle outside, and he didn't know if he would be able to come back alive... so he poured all his love into his three grandsons.
When Qiao Qingqing walked in and saw this scene, she felt extremely guilty.
She was so focused on her own emotions that she neglected her duties as a mother and didn't notice how much of a burden she was placing on her mother-in-law.
"mama~mama!"
Lu Xiaoqiao, who was holding onto the wooden horse and trying to sit on it, looked at his mother first. He immediately grinned, revealing his baby teeth, and shouted with joy.
He let go of the wooden horse and stumbled towards his mother, excited and happy.
Shi Meiyun also turned her head and looked over, a little surprised: "Qingqing, why did you come back so early today?"
Qiao Qingqing put the bucket down next to the water tank, then turned around to catch the little baby who was running behind her, and held the little guy's buttocks and picked him up.
"The head of the group talked to me today and asked me to focus more on my family. I thought that the work in the logistics department was almost done, so I came back early."
"Captain Cheng is so thoughtful. I was just telling your dad that you've been so busy this month and haven't eaten much. I'm afraid you'll get sick sooner or later."
Shi Meijun also breathed a sigh of relief. She had long wanted to give Qingqing more rest time, but what her husband said made sense. Qingqing worked for the army and there were some things she could not do, and it was not easy for family members like them to interfere.
I didn't expect that Captain Cheng would take Qingqing into consideration.
Shi Meijun felt even more grateful to Captain Cheng.
As soon as she changed clean pants for her grandson, the little guy immediately ran to pester his mother.
Shi Meijun shook her head and smiled. She didn't feel jealous at all. Instead, she felt relieved and took the dirty pants to wash.
With three little followers around her, Qiao Qingqing felt that she was "having a hard time".
Finally, she had no choice but to find something for them to play with to distract them.
While the children were playing, Qiao Qingqing quickly cooked.
When I looked at the water tank, it was empty.
She took the shoulder pole and bucket and went out to fetch water.
In fact, Lu Zhenfeng would fetch water every morning, noon and evening, because there were more people in the family now and the children were always getting their pants dirty, so there were more places to use water.
In the summer, people sweat a lot and everyone needs to take a bath, so even if Qiao Qingqing added two large water tanks to the house, fetching water twice a day is not enough.
The three little ones were fighting over toys, but when they saw their mother go out, they quickly dropped their toys and ran after her, making anxious humming sounds. When they found that their mother still didn't stop, they immediately started crying.
