Hearing this, Jiang Si was also a little surprised. She had no relatives or friends here, so who would come looking for her at this hour?
Could it be Third Uncle and Uncle Zhong?
After thinking about it, Jiang Si really thought it was possible.
She had just called her third uncle a few days ago, even though he kept saying on the phone that there was no rush to come to Qiongzhou Island.
He also said that they had just gotten through this, and he was worried about not having anyone at home to take care of them.
But who knows if Third Uncle is planning to give me a surprise?
Jiang Si felt more and more certain that she had figured out the truth, and was about to get up and say goodbye.
He Ping rubbed his dizzy head and suddenly exclaimed like a thunderclap from nowhere.
"Sister-in-law, it's the regimental commander's mother who's here."
ah?
Is my mother-in-law here?
Jiang Si was genuinely surprised this time.
She had heard Huo Tingzhou mention before that Huo's mother was currently performing for the troops in the old revolutionary base areas of Jiangxi Province, but she hadn't heard her mention coming to Qiongzhou Island!
However, Jiang Si didn't think too much about it. It was good that her mother-in-law was coming; she hadn't seen her for a long time.
"Sister-in-law, I'll head back now."
"Okay, okay, go ahead."
As Hu Meili spoke, she packed two meals for her.
“It’s rare for your mother-in-law to come all this way, so I won’t keep you for lunch. Take this with you and come over anytime if you need anything.”
Jiang Si didn't stand on ceremony with her; at this hour, the cafeteria really didn't have much food left.
After thanking her, she took the items.
Hu Meili escorted the person to the door and saw a tall woman in a navy blue Lenin suit walking towards them from afar.
Seeing that Hu Meili was standing in the yard, the Wei brothers, Wei Dong and Wei Min, curiously peeked out.
After watching for a while, the second brother, Xiao Weimin, suddenly said something surprising.
"Brother, Aunt Jiang's mother-in-law looks like a good mother-in-law. She's definitely not the kind who would badmouth her daughter-in-law behind her back!"
The eldest brother, Xiao Weidong, nodded in agreement. "I don't think so either."
After saying that, he glanced at Hu Meili and said, "Mom, you can rest assured now."
Upon hearing this, Hu Meili laughed: "You two don't know anything."
She's lived for so many years, yet she wouldn't dare say she can tell a person's character at a glance.
These two little brats haven't even grown their first hairs yet, what do they know?
However, to be honest, she was indeed a little worried.
Having lived on the island for so many years, she had never seen any of Huo's relatives come to visit.
As a result, no sooner had Xiao Huo left than his mother arrived on the island.
Don't let them come looking for trouble!
It's no wonder Hu Meili thinks that way.
Back then, Mingjuan's mother-in-law took advantage of Lao Lei's absence on a mission to torment her in various ways every day.
Hu Meili still can't understand what Mingjuan's mother-in-law was thinking.
Instead of enjoying a perfectly good life, they insist on making a ruckus at home.
Thankfully, it wasn't her mother-in-law, otherwise Hu Meili would have definitely fought with her.
What kind of people are these? They've suffered at the hands of their mothers-in-law, so do they have to make their daughters-in-law suffer the same way before they're satisfied?
Hu Meili was secretly thinking that the Wei brothers, Wei Dong and Wei Min, were not having it.
The second son clenched his fists and said defiantly, "Mom, don't underestimate us. We may be young, but we're not stupid!"
“Last month, Xiaohong’s grandmother came to visit. She didn’t bring anything with her and beat Xiaohong every day, not wanting Xiaohong to go to school.”
"Don't you always say that your appearance reflects your heart? Xiao Hong's grandma doesn't look like a good person at all!"
"Anyway, people who roll their eyes all the time, have thin faces, droopy eyebrows, thin lips, and deep wrinkles around their mouths are not good people!"
The second child not only summarizes, but he also gives examples: "Xiao Hong's grandma, Xiao Hua's grandma, and Xiao Mei's..."
Before she could finish speaking, Hu Meili quickly covered her mouth.
My God.
Shut up!
Is this something you can just spout off about?
But covering it up won't help; the two brothers have always shared both good times and bad.
Under the protest of his second son's eyes, Xiao Weidong spoke again.
"Mom, did you see the net bag that Aunt Jiang's mother-in-law is carrying?"
"There's malted milk powder, milk powder, biscuits, and two big boxes of chocolate at the bottom."
In addition to having 5.0 vision in both eyes, Xiao Weidong also has an excellent memory.
“My dad brought us a box of this chocolate back in April two years ago when he came back from a mission in Guangzhou.”
"It seems to only be sold at the Friendship Store, and it's very expensive!"
After being reminded by her eldest son, Hu Meili noticed that the other person was indeed carrying a large bag of things.
She's just nearsighted and can't see what's inside.
At this moment, Xiao Weidong sighed like a little adult.
"Mom, I already told you not to worry."
“If she weren’t a good mother-in-law, she wouldn’t have brought so many things to visit Aunt Jiang.”
It was quite a coincidence that the young leader had just finished speaking.
From afar, Hu Meili saw that after Jiang Si called out "Mom," Huo's mother happily threw down her luggage and gave Jiang Si a big hug.
Huo's mother had no idea that her arrival had caused Hu Meili to overthink things, but even if she did, she wouldn't care.
After all, her daughter-in-law lives on Qiongzhou Island year-round, and she is very grateful to have such a neighbor who always thinks of her.
Not to mention, the moment her daughter-in-law met her, she sweetly called her "Mom."
Mrs. Huo was overjoyed!
Seeing her mother-in-law carrying large and small bags, with beads of sweat on her forehead, Jiang Si felt a mix of emotions.
