Yunduan walked to the door and just as he pushed open the half-closed door, he smelled the fragrance of food.
I looked up and found that Xiao Pu'er had opened all the aluminum lunch boxes, revealing the braised pork ribs, crucian carp soup, homemade tofu, bok choy and rice from the canteen.
Little Pu'er looked at the dishes, slurping his saliva. He was obviously very greedy but he was reluctant to pick up his chopsticks.
Yunduan changed his shoes and asked, "Why don't you eat?"
"Wait until you eat with Daddy."
"Go call your dad for dinner!"
"Dad's not home."
"Then let's not wait for him, let's eat first."
"What if Dad gets angry when he comes back?"
"What's there to be angry about?"
Yunduan found the Grand Canal soap and turned to ask Xiao Pu'er, "Have you washed your hands?"
"not yet."
Yunduan extended his hand to Xiao Pu'er and said, "Let's go wash our hands."
Little Pu'er slid down from the chair and followed Yunduan with his short legs to the public bathroom to wash his hands.
It is called a washroom, but it is also a public toilet. There are four squat toilets in a row, each separated by a wooden board and has a door.
If four people go to the toilet at the same time, it is like four people standing on both sides of the Yellow River at the same time, holding confidential documents in their hands, with gunfire coming from behind and the sound of washing in the sink in front of them.
A large rectangular sink was built in the front with two rows of faucets installed, so you can stand on both sides of the sink to clean at the same time.
When the weather is fine, you can hang the washed quilts and clothes on the cement space under the tube building to dry.
With such gloomy weather like today, where we don’t know when it will rain, everyone washes their clothes and hangs them directly in the bathroom to dry.
When passing by, if you are not paying attention, you will always be lifted by the hanging trouser legs, skirts, etc.
When Yunduan brought little Pu'er in, she saw several military wives busy around the sink, some washing dishes, some washing clothes, some cleaning shoes, and some washing vegetables...
At the same time, I also smelled an indescribable smell, probably someone was taking a big poop.
However, these military wives didn't care at all. They stood around the sink, busy with their work and gossiping.
Wow, this is another intelligence station in the family compound!
As soon as Yunduan and Xiao Pu'er came in, they were captured by the military wives at the intelligence station and became the center of gossip.
"Duanduan! I heard that your Captain Huo has made another contribution. Congratulations!"
Yunduan was confused, but still very happy, "Thank you."
"Duanduan, how did your Captain Huo know that those two criminals would be at the entrance of the army at that time? He had people ambushed there early in the morning."
"If you ask me, Captain Huo is a genius, a reincarnation of Zhuge Liang!"
"That's right, otherwise how could Captain Huo win so many battles?"
"Duanduan, you are so lucky to have found such an outstanding man like Captain Huo. There is more good fortune to come!"
“…”
Yunduan Xiaoxiao didn't respond. She quickly washed her hands with Xiao Pu'er and left.
Although the mother and daughter were gone, the topics of those military wives were still revolving around Yunduan.
"Look at what she's wearing. It's not tight, but it makes her look good."
"Yes, you really know how to dress up!"
"I don't know where she bought that dress."
"I heard she just came back from the county town and should be in the department store."
“That must be expensive!”
"What's a suit of clothes?"
"Didn't you see that Captain Huo bought her a bicycle, a sewing machine, an electric fan, and a washing machine in order to coax her back..."
"Captain Huo is really willing to spend money on her!"
"I just saw her carrying a rice basket, like she was coming back from the canteen. I didn't see any pots or anything at her door. I guess she's planning to go to the canteen from now on."
After hearing what they said, Jia Lanlan curled her lips and sneered:
"I was so focused on my appearance that I probably couldn't even cook a meal."
"Who lives like this? They spend money like water. No matter how much money Captain Huo has, he can't afford to spend it like this."
"How could Captain Huo, such a smart man, like such a useless embroidered pillow?"
When several military wives heard the conversation getting out of control, they didn't want to get involved in any trouble, so they left whenever they could.
Those who hadn't finished washing and couldn't go for a walk pretended not to hear her, talked about other things, and ignored her.
(ˉ▽￣～) Cut~~
Jia Lanlan rolled her eyes in dissatisfaction and cursed softly, "Coward!"
When she passed by Yunduan's house, she happened to see Huo Qiusheng coming back. She smiled and went up to greet him:
"Captain Huo, I just need your help with something."
"you say."
"Isn't your fiancée a college student? I want her to help He Xiang with her studies."
"She's going to take the college entrance exam soon, and my husband, Wu, and I don't know how to do it at all."
"You'll have to ask Duanduan about this."
"She's your fiancée, so she has to listen to you, right?"
"I can't be her boss. I have to listen to her about household matters."
Jia Lanlan suddenly became jealous. How could a good man like Huo Qiu Sheng look down on her sister?
Do you like vixen like Yunduan?
However, she smiled as she walked into the house with Huo Qiu Sheng, and when she saw Yun Duan, she smiled and explained her purpose.
When Yunduan heard that she was asked to help with tutoring, she immediately declined.
"I just found a job in town, and Qiu Sheng was worried that I wouldn't be able to catch the bus in time, so he bought me a bicycle."
"I really don't have time to tutor your sister. I'm sorry."
Jia Lanlan said she was fine, but as soon as she left the house she started to tell Wang Fengqin:
"Director Wang!"
"Cloud is definitely not a college student."
Wang Fengqin's eyes lit up when she heard this. "Why do you say that?"
"I did as you said and went to her house in front of Huo Qiusheng and asked her to help our He Xiang with her lessons."
"Guess what she said?"
"You say you can't go?"
"Not only did he say he couldn't go, he even lied and said he had found a job in town and was too busy."
"Even if not all the family members in our family compound have gone to town to look for jobs, at least eight out of ten have! Who do you think has found one?"
"Any of us military wives who stand up is better than Yunduan working hard, right?"
"She dresses up all day long, but she doesn't look like someone who can get things done."
"If jobs were so easy to find in town, everyone would have gone to work long ago."
Wang Fengqin thought that if she couldn’t find a job, it was either because she was too ambitious but lacked the skills, or because she was too focused on taking care of her family and couldn’t coordinate her time and energy.
However, when she heard Jia Lanlan say this about Yunduan, she felt very happy and did not correct her.
She instructed Jia Lanlan, "Tell Liu Anqi that Yunduan found a job in town. Just say..."
After hearing her words, Jia Lanlan smiled sinisterly, "Okay, Director Wang, just wait for my good news."
