Chapter 180 Just Call Me Brother
When Zhu Yunying visited Old Lady Feng for the first time, she prepared gifts for her.
On the surface, she was carrying two large suitcases, but in reality it was just to hide her identity and make it easier to take things out of the space.
"Grandma, the herbal bags are all sorted. These are for warming and nourishing meals, and those are for soothing your feet before bed. They're all labeled."
"Grandma, I tried to make a cheongsam and specially enlarged the quantity. Please try it and you can modify it."
"Grandma, how about I show you my cooking skills tonight and make some soup?"
“…”
Old Mrs. Feng looked at her granddaughter-in-law who put down her luggage and started to get busy. She felt indescribable joy in her heart. She took her hand and quickly sat beside her.
"You kid, why are you preparing so many things for your own home? When Xiaoqin returned to Beijing, you asked her to bring wild ginseng. And this time you brought so much more!"
The old lady had a kind face, but when she pretended to be angry, there was still a sense of oppression between her brows.
Zhu Yunwei was also happy.
When she came, she was a little nervous, but when she saw people, she felt inexplicably close to them and naturally became nicer to them.
She smiled and said, "Grandma, I've already taken it, you can't just take it back! This cheongsam was made by Yun Wei herself, please don't despise it."
"Grandma, my sister-in-law also gave me a cheongsam! It's very beautiful."
Zeng Xiaoqin looked at her sister-in-law, who looked radiant and seemed unaffected by her cousin's unreasonable behavior, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
When Mrs. Feng heard this, she also laughed.
"Yun Ying is really capable. Xiao Qin is good in every way except that she doesn't like to dress up. We have made skirts at home, but they are all in the bottom of the closet. As for the cheongsam you gave her, I have worn it several times."
"You've worn them all out?" Zhu Yunwei didn't know the customs in Beijing yet, and was worried that her cheongsam would be affected. She was also a little annoyed, "The cheongsam is still not cautious enough. Next time, I'll learn how to make a braid."
"I haven't worn it outside. I wore it twice on purpose while I was working on a manuscript at home, just for my own enjoyment!"
"Hahaha!"
"Yun Yao, you make both cheongsam and braid. You are so skillful."
Old Mrs. Feng patted the back of her hand with a smile on her face.
Zhu Yunyao and the old lady didn't hide it either: "I want to hone my skills and see if there is any development in the future."
"That's great. Your grandfather and mother have been running a textile factory, and you've been exposed to them since childhood. It's only natural that you'd be interested in fabrics and clothing." Old Lady Feng changed the subject, "How about this? The boy from the Xia family works in a state-owned garment factory. You young people could meet him someday."
"Xia family? Is that the Xia family?"
Zhu Yunying's eyes lit up. She wanted to wait until after the greetings were over before talking about the matters of those families.
Unexpectedly, the topic was smoothly connected.
Mrs. Feng nodded. "Yes. Xia Jun is about the same age as you, only a year or two older. You can just call him brother. Back then, your mother saved Xia Jun's aunt, Xia Fangfei. It was because she was taken to the hospital after being rescued that Xia Fangfei was found to be pregnant. Your mother has made a great contribution."
Zhu Yunying nodded sensibly.
She understood what Old Lady Feng meant, and knew that the Xia family would definitely help with Zhu Qingyin's matter.
The two of them chatted animatedly, asking and answering each other.
Zeng Xiaoqin, who was standing by, broke out in cold sweat on her back.
It's over!
Her grandmother actually meant it.
Xia Jun, Xia Jun!
Isn’t Xia Jun the guy that the Xia family wants to arrange a child marriage with the Zhu family?
It's over, it's over.
My cousin is finished now!
"Sister-in-law! Let me take you to see the new house! Grandma and I decorated it together. It's a brand new dragon and phoenix wedding quilt that has been aired in the sun."
Zeng Xiaoqin didn't dare to tell her grandmother what to do, so she could only take her sister-in-law away.
However, Old Lady Feng saw through her thoughts and disagreed, "Why cover yourself with a quilt in the middle of summer? Save that quilt for winter. I have a cool mat in the room next door, wiped with toilet water, and it's comfortable to sleep on."
"Grandma..." Zeng Xiaoqin winked at her, but the old lady pretended not to see.
Zhu Yunying carried her luggage and went to the guest room.
Zeng Xiaoqin looked helplessly at the temporarily tidied room. There was a mat on the bed and a mosquito net hanging over it. There was a desk near the window with two folding stools, and next to the desk was a wardrobe.
Simple and clean, very comfortable.
But... there is no trace of my cousin at all!
Zeng Xiaoqin's face was wrinkled like a bitter gourd.
Although she often scolded her cousin and threatened him that if he didn't change his bad temper, her sister-in-law would run away, she never expected that one day she would help her sister-in-law run away...
"Sister-in-law, are you very angry with your cousin?"
Zeng Xiaoqin grabbed the mosquito net and asked Zhu Yunying with a guilty conscience.
Zhu Yunying shook her head: "Why should I be angry with him? If it weren't for him, I wouldn't even know you."
Zeng Xiaoqin muttered, "I'm not a big shot, so whether I know you or not is not a big deal."
Zhu Yunying was startled. Seeing the little girl's melancholy expression, she reached out and pinched her cheek, teasingly saying, "How come he's not an important figure? You took so many photos? Have you developed them? I want to see them."
Even more embarrassing.
Zeng Xiaoqin said with a sad face: "I just sent it out when I heard that you were coming to Beijing. I should have not sent it earlier."
Zhu Yunwei smiled.
Zeng Xiaoqin stole a glance outside the door and said mysteriously, "Sister-in-law, Xia Jun is quite old-fashioned and boring. Grandma wants to introduce you to him, but just ignore him..."
Before Zeng Xiaoqin could finish, she heard Old Madam Feng's voice from outside: "Yun Yao, I've made an appointment with the Xia family. Let's have lunch together tomorrow at noon."
"Okay, grandma."
Zhu Yunyao agreed.
…
In the valley.
Feng Shuo and the third regiment commander were studying the task allocation together. When he saw the soldiers from the kitchen squad were going back to the army to collect supplies, his brows jumped.
The third commander quickly covered up the list.
"Don't even think about it! Political Commissar Zhang said you should just stay here quietly for the next month!"
Feng Shuo's eyes darkened: "Did he say that?"
"The original words were, 'Stay outside obediently!'" The Third Regimental Commander wiped his nose and chuckled, "He was expelled from the compound."
Feng Shuo took a deep breath, shifted his gaze away from the list, and changed the subject.
At night.
The tent is too stuffy.
Feng Shuo lay casually on the grass, his hands behind his head, staring at the starry sky above his head.
call out--
A meteor with a long tail streaked across the sky.
He is away from home all year round and often works all night long to keep watch, so this kind of scene is nothing new to him.
But at this moment, he was thinking that Zhu Yunying should like to see these.
Who knows, she might even dance!
If there is no one around, she might even throw herself into his arms and ask to make a wish with him.
Although he had no experience with it, he was extremely confident.
My heart also feels empty.
I've been away for several days, and I don't know if I've calmed down.
Did you see the message?
Thinking back to the first time we met, he also left a note and slipped it into someone's hand, but no one saw it.
If he hadn't seen this and left without saying goodbye, would he have been even angrier?
Feng Shuo couldn't bear the mere thought of it.
He stood up suddenly, walked to the outside of the third commander's tent, and kicked the person inside: "I'm going back!"
"The political commissar doesn't allow you to go, but it's only for one month, so just bear with it!" The third regiment commander was extremely sleepy.
Feng Shuo used his trump card: "A month is too long. My wife is pregnant. Being angry is not good for your health."
"...So you're going to coax your wife overnight?"
When the third captain spoke again, his words sounded a little sour.
It’s a pity that I was so happy to teach people how to find friends, and now I even have a child!
It’s so unfair!
Why is it so difficult for him and his wife to have a child?
