Chapter 416
Tang Yue hugged Zhao Shengrui's neck and let him do whatever he wanted. After all, she missed him very much, and what followed was just an appetizer.
～～～～～～～～～～～
The two of them kept making noise until midnight. Finally, Zhao Shengrui got up, fetched some water and washed up. Then the two of them fell asleep in each other's arms.
When Tang Yue got up the next day, she was the only one left on the kang. She took out the watch from under the pillow and looked at it. It was already eight o'clock in the morning. She thought that everyone in the family should be up, but she was still sleeping in. Although her family wouldn't say anything, she still felt a little embarrassed, so she quickly got up from the kang, put on her clothes and got off.
When I came outside, I saw that it was snowing, but not as much as yesterday. I went to my grandmother's room and saw several children playing with toys on the kang. "Mom, did Brother Shengrui go to the commune?"
When Zhao's mother saw her daughter-in-law got up, she smiled from ear to ear, "Why are you up so early? Why don't you sleep a little longer? Shengrui went to the commune to send bacon to his brother and sister-in-law. Before he left, he said he might go to see Li Yong and might not come back for lunch, so you don't have to worry."
Tang Yue felt that her mother-in-law was simply the best mother-in-law in the world. She got up so late, but she thought it was too early and asked her to sleep a little longer. How could there be such a good mother-in-law?
Although the mother-in-law meant it as a joke, she knew that she was just joking. The mother-in-law wanted her daughter-in-law and son to love each other, which would make the family more harmonious.
"Brother Shengrui rarely comes back, so he really wants to see his comrades. If we visit each other more often, we won't become distant and our relationship won't become unfamiliar. Since he won't come back for dinner, it's the same if we eat by ourselves."
Tang Yue knew that generally people who had been in the army had deep feelings for their comrades. They were people who trusted each other, and they contacted each other more often to deepen their feelings.
Seeing her daughter-in-law being so sensible, Zhao's mother nodded in satisfaction, "You haven't had breakfast yet? Go and have breakfast quickly. I'm heating it up in the pot for you."
After saying that, she looked at her seven grandchildren who were sitting on the kang and playing, "Your mother's task today is to watch these children and not let them go out. Your father and his family are going to clean up those rabbits."
The last sentence was said very loudly, for fear that Xiaobao and the others might hear it and make a fuss and not let me clean up.
Tang Yue immediately understood what her mother-in-law meant. She was preparing to move so that she could sort out the things at home.
"Thank you for your hard work, I'm going to eat first."
After all, my mother-in-law is really old, almost in her sixties, and she definitely can't handle taking care of so many children, so I hurried to eat breakfast so that I can come back to take care of the children.
"Go ahead, go ahead. You can go and rest after dinner. You don't have to take care of the baby. Your Aunt Wu and Aunt Li will come over to help take care of the baby later. You can go and do your own thing."
Mother Zhao likes to chat with her two old sisters about things they like to talk about. It is not very convenient for her daughter-in-law to talk, and she is definitely not interested in what they chat about.
Tang Yue understood the hidden meaning of her mother-in-law's words. It would be even more comfortable if she didn't have to take care of the baby, so she didn't refuse at all.
I went to the kitchen and brought the hot food in the pot to the living room. It turned out that what I steamed in the morning was steamed buns. The steamed buns went well with the bone soup, which just wouldn't choke my throat. The bone soup was simmered for a long time, and the soup was very strong.
After eating and drinking, I went to the firewood shed in the backyard and took in the clothes that the two of us had hung out to dry last night. Looking at the frozen clothes, I took a stick and knocked them hard to knock off the broken ice. Then I put them on the edge of the kang. I thought the clothes would be dry in a few hours.
Tang Yue took out the clothes she had made for Zhao Shengrui over the past year from her space and planned to put them in the closet first. This would be a way to get by.
There are seven other children who make clothes for her. She also took out clothes that she had hoarded in the past and probably wore them until they were several years old. As long as she has nothing to do, she will keep making clothes, and she makes a lot in a year.
Tang Yue also made herself several sets of Lenin suits, including several skirts for summer. Each one was relatively conservative and covered her body tightly. She felt that she was still young and there was no need to dress herself up like she was 30 years old.
When it was time for lunch, Zhao Shengrui did not come back for dinner as expected, but fortunately he had informed him in advance, so he was not worried.
At this time, Zhao Shengrui, who was being thought of by Tang Yue, was in the commune. Just like last year's Spring Festival, he first mailed the things out, and then went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy gifts for the whole family.
Ever since he bought the gifts last year and saw that the whole family was so happy, he originally thought that he only needed to give money and not buy gifts. But after what happened last year, he felt that buying gifts still showed more thoughtfulness.
So this year he came to the supply and marketing cooperative, planning to buy gifts for the whole family.
Now I'm buying clothes for the six elderly people in my family. After all, there's nothing new these days. Although they usually make their own clothes at home, the clothes from the supply and marketing cooperative are also very beautiful. I think they will like them.
As for buying something for my wife, it was a little more expensive. I bought her a pure gold necklace and a gold chain. Although I don’t use them now, I will always have the chance to use them in the future.
Zhao Shengrui also knew that this thing was not expensive at all. His wife could have any good thing she wanted. There were many good things. But this was his own idea, and his wife would definitely like it.
After buying a gold necklace for my wife, I saw that there was not much money left in my pocket. I took a rough look and found that there was only about a hundred yuan. There was no way that the gold necklace cost too much money. The item was very heavy, so I bought a more valuable one.
I originally wanted to buy some golden Buddha statues for the children, but unfortunately I didn’t have enough money, so I ended up buying them some toys to get rid of them.
Although Zhao Shengrui likes several children very much, that is because they are born by his beloved, so he would rather spend more money to buy something suitable for his wife than spend no money and just buy one for his wife.
After buying things, I was about to leave the supply and marketing cooperative, thinking about going to see Li Yong. After all, I haven't seen him for almost a year, and I really want to see my comrades-in-arms.
After leaving the supply and marketing cooperative, he came to a remote and deserted place and put the things he had just bought into the storage ring. He originally wanted to take two kilograms of meat to Li Yong's house, but he thought that his family was closed last year and it would be a waste to buy some meat. In the end, he took it to a state-owned restaurant and asked them to help cook it.
This time he wasn't going to bring any meat, just two bottles of wine, so the two of them could have a nice drink and reminisce about the past, as they didn't know when they would see each other again next time.
