Jiang Mengning and her friends are having dumplings tonight.
Huo Jinyan has been busy for a few days and is free to have dinner together at home today.
Making dumplings is a technical job. Jiang Mengning and Nian Nian are the only ones in the family who don’t know how to make them. Even Huo Haowen knows how to make dumplings, and the dumplings he makes look pretty good.
Jiang Mengning didn't like learning this either, so she and Nian Nian added fuel to the fire.
They kneaded the dough, sometimes making a little rabbit, sometimes making a little puppy, and the big and the small had a lot of fun playing with it.
So much so that both of their faces and noses were covered with flour.
Huo Jinyan took a handkerchief and wiped Jiang Mengning's face. After wiping the big part, he wiped the small part, with an extremely gentle expression.
Even Grandma Zhao beside her couldn't help but curl her lips.
She finally understood that this home was only a home as long as Comrade Jiang was there!
Wherever Comrade Jiang is, there is laughter and joy everywhere.
However, Captain Huo really loves his wife and agrees with her in everything. She has never met such a good man.
If Huo Haowen were in the past, he would definitely have said something to his stepmother, saying that she was causing trouble instead of doing her job, and that he didn't know what was the point of his father marrying such a wife.
He won’t say that now. Not only does he not think his stepmother is useless, he even thinks that having a stepmother is fun and cute.
The atmosphere at home is warm, and the political commissar comes to visit.
"Oh, sure, let's have dumplings tonight."
When he saw Jiang Mengning and Nian Nian playing with dough, he couldn't help but laugh at Huo Jinyan: "Our team leader is here making dumplings, but your wife is not doing her job. I've never seen another family like you! Jinyan, it seems that the rumor that he is afraid of his wife is true."
Huo Jinyan glared at him, and the political commissar smiled and said nothing.
He said to Jiang Mengning fearlessly, "Comrade Jiang, as a military wife, you still have to do your logistics work well. You can't be clueless. Remember a few months ago when I asked you to practice washing dishes and fetching water? You have to persist in this kind of thing!"
"But then again, you haven't learned how to carry water yet, have you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a ball of dough was thrown at the political commissar's face.
"Are you here just to meddle in other people's business?"
Huo Jinyan glanced at him unhappily.
The political commissar was not angry either, and laughed out loud.
"I was just kidding. Look at how protective you are of your child. I've never seen anyone dote on his wife as much as you do."
Huo Haowen said, "My mom is very good, and it's only natural that my dad spoils me."
As soon as he said that, his face turned red again.
The political commissar was a little relieved that the family was now very united, which was very good.
It's much better than before.
He coughed and said, "Okay, let me tell you something serious. I'm going to get married."
Um?
Jiang Mengning couldn't help but gossip about this matter, mainly because it was not easy for the political commissar to get married at such an old age.
"Political Commissar, you've done a great job keeping secrets! I've never heard you mention this before, but you're suddenly getting married. Whose family is this lesbian from?"
Although the political commissar is old, he is still a pure man. When talking about this topic, he suddenly becomes less shameless.
"My mom picked me out for the wedding. I knew the guy and thought he was pretty good, so we set the date for the wedding."
"Originally, I wanted to invite you to visit my hometown, but my hometown is too far away, and I don't want to bother you, so I won't invite you. I'll treat you to the wedding banquet when I come back."
The political commissar had resolved the most important matter in his life, and everyone in the team was happy for him.
It is really difficult for an old man to get married.
After the political commissar left, Jiang Mengning went to tease Huo Haowen again: "Little ghost, I didn't expect you to be so protective of me now! If I remember correctly, you haven't called me mom since you called me mom back home. You are very rude! Come on, call me mom again and let me hear it."
Huo Haowen glared at her shyly: "I don't want it."
"hurry up."
"don't want."
"hurry up."
"don't want.
The two fought back and forth for more than ten rounds, and Huo Haowen's face was almost bleeding.
He asked his father for help: "Dad, please take care of her!"
Huo Jinyan remained calm: "Then just scream."
Well, he should have known that relying on his father was useless. Now, his father listens to his wife in everything.
After dinner, Jiang Mengning asked Nian Nian if she wanted to go out for a walk. Nian Nian said yes, so she and Huo Jinyan took Nian Nian out for a walk.
The three of them walking together look very harmonious, and they look like a normal family of three.
But they seemed to have forgotten that Huo Haowen was also a child now, and he also wanted to go out for a walk with his parents, but no one called him.
Thirteen or fourteen years old is a very sensitive age. Huo Haowen felt sad when he saw the family of three laughing and playing as they walked away.
The older boy stood at the door, his face full of thoughts.
Seeing Huo Haowen still at home, Grandma Zhao asked, "Why don't you go out for a walk with me? Take a walk after dinner. If you live to be ninety-nine, go out and have some fun! You can't stay at home all the time."
Huo Haowen hummed in a depressed tone, and as if possessed by some unknown force, he also went out.
He looked for his parents and sister in the yard but couldn't find them.
My heart felt sour again.
He walked to the basketball court alone, found a corner to sit in, and stared blankly.
"Huo Haowen, why are you here alone?"
Mantou walked over holding a basketball.
Huo Haowen ignored him, but Mantou still came over to talk to him.
"Isn't today your birthday? Why are you out here alone? Didn't your parents celebrate your birthday?"
It would be fine if I didn’t mention it, but once I did, the gap in my heart would be even greater.
