Heartache and guilt almost overwhelmed him. Huo Donglin squatted down and said to the two little kids seriously: "Dad promises to share more housework in the future and not let your mother work so hard."
"But in front of you, if mom needs it, dad will come out to help."
Although Jiang Ningning looks frail, she is very strong inside.
In the past few days, he has heard many people praising Jiang Ningning in the county.
“Your mom is amazing!”
"Of course." Xia Xia was not shy at all when it came to praising her mother, and she puffed out her chest proudly.
Huo Donglin's heart softened as he looked at the two children's cotton-padded jackets that were obviously well-fitting. "After this rescue is over, Dad will take two days off, and our family will go to Jiang's department store on the way..."
Before he could finish his words, a little cat quickly came up and covered his mouth.
"You said the same thing last time, and you were carried away by the waves." He sighed in a very adult way.
"If you get swept away again tomorrow, you'll just be unlucky."
Huo Meidan: “…”
According to historical experience, Huo Donglin was unwilling to beat his son even if he had an argument with him, so he simply picked up the broom to clean the house, and then helped the two boys wash their feet and go to bed.
There was only one bed in the room. After putting the children to bed, he was about to leave as usual, but he keenly caught the hatred in the children's eyes that they tried hard to hide.
After thinking for a moment, he put two benches together, placed his legs horizontally on the back bench, then turned off the lights and lay down.
In the darkness, a voice full of surprise rang out: "You're leaving?"
Huo Donglin hummed softly.
"Okay, you are allowed to sleep here for one night." She is quite arrogant!
When Jiang Ningning woke up the next day, it was just dawn.
There was a rustling sound in the room. She raised her eyelids and saw Huo Donglin sitting on a stool, bending over with his back to her.
The moment the camouflage uniform was stretched tight, the forearm muscles formed an iron-like arc as the pressure was applied.
And those strong arms had once carried her like a princess...
Jiang Ningning curled her fingertips under the quilt.
She admitted that the camouflage uniform tightly wrapped around her good figure was really attractive with her hormones bursting.
"Did I wake you up?" Huo Donglin felt the burning gaze behind him and carefully tied a knot around his combat boots.
Just untie and re-tie.
Jiang Ningning came back to her senses at this moment. She had been distracted by Huo Donglin just now.
Thinking of this, my face got a little hot, "No, no."
Huo Donglin hummed, then asked, "It was too late yesterday so I didn't go back. Is there anything you want to eat in the morning? I'll go to the cafeteria and get it back."
When he asked this, Jiang Ningning suddenly wanted to eat something. "Chili!"
In her previous life, she didn't like spicy food. After she traveled through time, she never ate spicy food and felt that her taste became bland.
chili? Huo Donglin frowned slightly. The food in the area around Jiang County is light, and there are few people who eat chili peppers, so it is very easy to find peppers.
Jiang Ningning also knew the answer and didn't want to embarrass him, "Whatever is available, buy whatever you like. I'm not a picky eater."
It was cold in the house when he got up in the morning, so Huo Donglin took the coal stove to the corridor to light a fire. After the honeycomb coal was completely burned, he brought it back and stewed a pot of fermented glutinous rice and brown sugar water.
The water soon began to boil, and three more eggs were put in, just enough for the mother and her two children, one for each.
After a busy day, it was already dawn.
People in each household got up one after another.
At this time, the hospital cafeteria is open.
Huo Donglin went out with an aluminum lunch box. After he left, Jiang Ningning slowly got up and went to the boiler room carrying the thermos.
Just as I was about to put the thermos under the tap, someone rushed over first. Turning around, I saw someone else, Guan Wenxue.
There was confidence in her eyes and eyebrows, and she raised her lower body and curled her lips. It was obvious that she came to talk to her specifically.
Jiang Ningning's expression remained unchanged as she picked up the thermos and walked to the side expressionlessly.
There was only one tap in the boiler room.
Guan Wenxue's smile froze for a second, but she quickly found a way out: "Are you afraid of me? Did you feel ashamed after hearing that news?"
But Jiang Ningning seemed to have completely ignored her and didn't even glance at her.
Guan Wenxue had never been ignored before. Her face was immediately filled with embarrassment, and she walked forward and domineeringly turned off the faucet.
And Jiang Ningning finally looked up at her.
Guan Wenxue curled her lips and raised her lower body even higher: "My photos and articles have been published in Jiangcheng newspapers, and they have been published for two consecutive issues. The leader of the base also called me last night to verbally commend me."
In fact, after the first article was published, she couldn't wait to find Jiang Ningning to show off. But the other person goes out early and comes back late, and I don’t know what he is busy with every day, so the two of them never touch each other.
She deliberately did not go out today and stayed near the boiler room, which led to this encounter.
"Not only that, Director Wang has already sent these two articles to the provincial newspaper for selection!"
Of course Jiang Ningning could tell that she was showing off, and she knew what was wrong with her that she had to come to her to seek a sense of existence.
Obviously, the relationship between the two is average, even a little bad.
Jiang Ningning knew that if she didn't cooperate, she would be fine, so she said two words lightly: "Congratulations."
But after Guan Wenxue finished showing off, she asked her a series of questions: "Comrade Jiang, how about you? Did you send the manuscript to us? How were the photos?"
Her manuscripts and photos had long been taken away by Wen Xiuying, who said that she didn't let such a small matter divert her attention.
So Jiang Ningning actually didn't know how the filming and writing were, so she told the truth: "You know, I was arrested by the Women's Federation these days to serve as a soldier."
What? Hasn't she been out taking pictures recently?
Guan Wenxue looked surprised, and then she felt a surge of joy in her heart. Jiang Ningning is not doing her job properly and is not doing her job well in the Propaganda Department. She will definitely not be able to deliver this time.
Seeing other people coming in, she pretended to be generous and said, "Do you want me to introduce you to Director Wang from the newspaper? Even if your manuscript is well written, at least you have gained experience. With more experience, you will definitely be selected in the future."
Seeing her pulling herself down to improve her reputation, Jiang Ningning was somewhat pleased. He tilted his head and exclaimed innocently, "Wow, Comrade Guan is so talented. He was listed in the newspaper twice and got the contact information of the newspaper director."
"Then I will definitely write more articles when I go back today. I think I will definitely win the favor of Director Wang."
Upon hearing this, Guan Wenxue's face turned dark on the spot.
She looked over in surprise and suspicion, and saw that Jiang Ningning had a sincere expression. She could tell at all that she was pretending to be confused, and it turned out to be a good thing.
"Maybe you were moved by my writing style." She explained with a sudden inspiration.
Jiang Ningning suddenly realized: "I still rely on my family's connections for you. After all, you have never done such a thing."
Then he said with an apologetic look, "Comrade Guan, I'm sorry I misunderstood you. You are so generous, you must be angry with me, right?"
Guan Wenxue's face turned green with anger as she used Green Tea's own way to deal with Green Tea.
Jiang Ningning suddenly stepped forward and whispered in her ear: "I know you rely on your family's connections to get published in the newspaper. You always target me like this. In fact, you are jealous that I look better than you, right? Even if I divorce Huo Donglin, he will still be attracted to you, a crooked! melon! cracked! date!"
