As she spoke, Jiang Si took out two more sets of pajamas from the closet.
"Mom, this is a pair of pajamas I had someone make for you. I don't know if it will fit, but you can try it on later."
"Here are the washbasin, the foot basin, and the slippers."
"Oh, I almost forgot, there's also this..."
As they were talking, Huo's mother suddenly stepped forward and gave her a big hug.
“My daughter-in-law is so thoughtful and considerate, unlike this brat.”
Jiang Si was stunned for a moment.
Realizing what had happened, she glanced at Huo Tingzhou with a questioning look in her eyes, "What did you do to upset Mom this time?"
Huo Tingzhou didn't say anything, but simply cupped his hands in a gesture of respect towards her.
They practically had "Save me" written all over their faces.
Jiang Si was puzzled, but what could she do? He was her man.
So she cleared her throat twice. "Mom, the water supply to the family compound has been restored. Why don't you take a shower to relax?"
"Okay, Mom will go right away."
Mrs. Huo had been traveling by train and ship for several days and had been wanting to take a bath to get rid of the smell.
Upon hearing this, he immediately nodded in agreement.
However, before going into the bathroom, she couldn't help but glare at her eldest son.
What exactly did you do?
After Huo's mother closed the bathroom door, Jiang Si looked over with curiosity.
Huo Tingzhou: "We didn't do anything."
He probably didn't do anything, which is why his mother was so angry with him.
After hearing the whole story, Jiang Si gave him a look that said "it's hard to explain".
"You deserved that scolding all the time, really!"
That's Heilongjiang Province, where temperatures can drop to minus 20 or 30 degrees Celsius, and there's no heating!
When Huo's mother went to visit him at the flight school, she found that apart from an old military quilt, there wasn't even hot water in the room.
The only edible food was frozen pears.
When Huo's mother took a bite, her teeth almost broke.
No wonder Mrs. Huo still remembers it even though it happened seven or eight years ago.
A shower takes very little time, and after showering, Mrs. Huo washed her clothes in the bathroom.
However, with so many people around, it's not appropriate to hang it out to dry in the yard, so I can only leave it in a basin for now.
When I came out of the restroom, the food was already on the table.
Due to the typhoon, vegetables are not only expensive now, but also hard to buy.
So today, the dishes that Uncle San and Uncle Zhong prepared were mainly fish, shrimp, and crab.
Uncle Zhong is a skilled cook; he can easily prepare steamed dishes, garlic-flavored dishes, charcoal-grilled dishes, and braised dishes.
In addition, he also made several Shanghai-style stir-fries that Jiang Si liked.
There were no outsiders present; including Qian Bao, there were six people in total.
Everyone enjoyed the meal.
After dinner, it was already quite late, so Huo Tingzhou quickly cleared away the dishes.
Fearing that Mrs. Huo would feel uncomfortable, Uncle San and Uncle Zhong stayed for a while before deciding to leave.
The two sides then engaged in another long tug-of-war.
Finally, it was only after Jiang Si's persuasion that Huo's mother gave up the idea.
However, Huo's mother still accompanied Huo Tingzhou to the gate of the family compound.
Jiang Si, on the other hand, took the opportunity to go to the bathroom to take a shower.
Although the water supply to the residential compound has been restored, it will still be cut off after 8 p.m.
Not long after they finished showering, Huo's mother and the others returned.
"Mom~~"
No sooner had Jiang Si finished speaking than Huo's mother came running excitedly from the second bedroom, carrying large and small bags.
