Chapter 236: Uncle is there too?
When Lin Siqiao saw the two oversized suitcases in Wang Xiaofei's hands, he hurried over and took the things.
"Aunt, you are still pregnant, how can you lift such a heavy thing?"
"It's nothing, just a few steps away."
Wang Xiaofei patted her face and said, "Don't worry, I can eat and sleep well now, and I'm in good health."
"That won't work either."
Lin Siqiao looked around and said, "Aunt, where is my uncle?"
"Your uncle..."
Wang Xiaofei opened his mouth and was about to speak, but his eyes saw Lu's mother not far away who was also carrying a lot of bags.
Lin Siqiao had sent back photos of her and Lu Jianchuan before.
Wang Xiaofei recognized her at a glance; the lady’s features and eyebrows were somewhat similar to Xiao Lu’s.
"Xiao Qiao, I'll tell you this when we get on board."
"Is that your future mother-in-law?"
Lin Siqiao nodded, "Well, Aunt Lu took half a day off today and said she would come over to see us off."
Upon hearing this, Wang Xiaofei immediately walked over enthusiastically.
"Hello, Sister Lu. I'm Xiao Qiao's aunt. You can just call me Xiao Fei."
"Hello, Xiaofei."
Mother Lu smiled and shook her hand. "No wonder Si Qiao said her aunt was a beauty in the art troupe. You don't look like someone who is almost 30 years old."
After saying that, he glanced at the two little guys and said, "And these two children, one is calm and the other is well-behaved."
"Sister Xiaofei, you are so lucky."
Mother Lu didn't mean to flatter when she said this; she really believed it from the bottom of her heart.
After hearing this, Wang Xiaofei was happy and felt more at ease.
As an experienced person, she naturally knows the importance of the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in marriage.
Based on her many years of experience, Xiao Qiao’s mother-in-law cannot be wrong.
Moreover, Wang Xiaofei could also see that Mother Lu loved Xiao Qiao no less than their elders.
In this way, Wang Xiaofei no longer has anything to worry about.
Perhaps it was because they loved the person and loved everything about him, the attitudes of both parties were extremely enthusiastic, and they were afraid that their lack of courtesy would leave a bad impression on the other party.
Lin Siqiao was distracted for a moment when the two of them were already holding hands and talking about their plans after the New Year.
"Sister Xiaofei, it's settled then. You must come to our house for a simple meal during the Chinese New Year."
"Yes! It's settled."
Wang Xiaofei nodded without any hesitation, and Mother Lu also laughed.
Lin Siqiao glanced at the time and it was almost time to board the boat.
"Aunt Lu, let's go then."
"Okay, okay, you guys hurry up and get on board. Be careful on the way, and remember to call and let me know you're safe when you arrive."
"Oh, and here are some more things, remember to take them."
"Okay, got it."
Lin Siqiao waved her hand and said, "Aunt Lu, you should go back soon too. It's windy at the dock, don't catch a cold."
The two little guys followed suit and waved their hands, "Auntie Lu, goodbye."
When this soft and tender voice came out, Mother Lu's heart melted.
"Well, goodbye, and have a safe trip!"
Mother Lu watched them board the ship and did not return home until the ship sailed out of the dock.
On the other side, with the help of the ship's staff, Lin Siqiao and her friends went to the second-class cabin on the third floor.
As it was the end of the year, there were obviously several times more people on the ship than usual.
After Lin Siqiao helped Wang Xiaofei to the bed and settled him down, he called the two little ones over and gave them some instructions.
"Don't worry, sister, we won't run around"
"Yes, I'm not going anywhere. I'll just stay in the room with my sister..."
Qiao Yingjing was a little boy with a smart face. As soon as he saw Wang Xiaofei's eyes, he immediately leaned over with curved eyebrows.
"I have to accompany my mother"
Wang Xiaofei: “…” I don’t believe you, you little brat.
Lin Siqiao held back her laughter and stuffed a White Rabbit into each of their mouths.
He also took out a simple military chess game and asked them to study it slowly on the other bed.
Wang Xiaofei looked at the obedient appearance of the two men and couldn't help but shook his head.
If these two little ones were half as obedient as they are now, she would be really lucky.
"Aunt, come, drink some hot water to warm yourself up first."
Lin Siqiao poured a cup of hot water and handed it to her, then sat down beside the bed. After she finished drinking it, Lin Siqiao continued with his previous question.
"Aunt, where did uncle go?"
Just now when she was at the dock, she noticed that there were dark circles under her aunt's eyes. It must be because she hadn't had enough rest recently.
Wang Xiaofei stroked her slightly bulging belly, and the worry in her eyes could not be hidden.
"Your uncle received a sudden notice in the middle of the night yesterday and went out on a mission."
"Uncle... is he also going on a mission?"
"Well, from receiving the notification to setting off, it took less than half an hour."
Wang Xiaofei suddenly stopped talking.
"Xiao Qiao, what did you just say mean? Could it be that the kid...he's also on a mission?"
No wonder, she said why Xiao Lu didn't show up today, but it was Lu's mother who came to see them off.
"Well, he's been gone for more than ten days."
The matter was confidential, so Lin Siqiao did not mention it on the phone before.
Now that they were the only ones in the room, Lin Siqiao just spoke frankly.
"Xiao Lu, did he go to the south too?" Wang Xiaofei suddenly lowered his voice.
Lin Siqiao widened his eyes when he heard this, and his aunt also used the word "also"!
That means my uncle and Lu Jianchuan should have gone to the same place.
But she remembered that her uncle's troops belonged to the Eastern Fleet. Why would they dispatch soldiers from such a long distance in the East?
Could it be that the situation over there has gotten out of control?
When Wang Xiaofei saw Lin Siqiao's behavior, she guessed something in her mind. As a military wife, she had long been accustomed to this.
But this was the first time Xiao Qiao encountered this, so she couldn't help but think more about it.
"Don't worry, Xiao Qiao. I went to Sister Guihua's house this morning to inquire about it."
"A lot of people were sent from the east this time, and the fleet and weapons are all the latest models."
"Since the Navy Fleet was founded, they have never lost a battle, and this time is no exception."
Lin Siqiao knew that her aunt said these things to make her feel at ease, but it was obvious that her aunt was the one who needed comfort the most!
Thinking of what Aunt Fu said before she came back, Lin Siqiao repeated it word for word.
After listening to this, Wang Xiaofei felt much better.
"Since that's what they said above, they will definitely be fine."
Lin Siqiao nodded and reached out to gently touch Wang Xiaofei's belly.
"Aunt, let's not have any extravagant thoughts. Just stay at home and wait for their news."
"Well, I'll listen to you."
After Wang Xiaofei finished speaking, he suddenly said "Ouch!" and the three people in the room instantly became nervous.
Lin Siqiao's hand was still on Wang Xiaofei's belly, and she was so scared that she didn't dare to move at all.
"Aunt, are you...are you okay? Did I hurt you?"
"No, no."
Wang Xiaofei looked down at his belly and said unhappily.
"The little guy in my belly was kicking me just now, and it was a heavy kick."
After she finished speaking, her face immediately wrinkled. She felt that this baby might be another bad boy.
Wang Xiaofei felt sick when he thought about a bunch of little kids following her and calling her grandma.
