Song Wenwen smiled and said, "It's not that Uncle Yanming is good to us, it's that Aunt Qiaoan is good to us. If it weren't for Bi Qiaoan, we would be nothing in Shen Yanming's eyes."
Wei Jiahe listened with a mixture of understanding and confusion.
Wei Liang, who was inside the house, walked over with a smile and ruffled his hair: "You must remember that the couple helped us when we were in the most difficult time. When you grow up and are able to do something, you should repay them in the same way, or even more."
Wei Jiahe nodded, "I understand, Dad." Then she looked at Song Wenuan, "Mom, are we having meat tonight?"
Song Wenwen really wanted to say that she would save it for the New Year, but looking at her child's bright and expectant eyes, she couldn't bring herself to say it.
So she smiled and said, "You can eat a little. You can eat the rest in a couple of days."
"I know, it has to be during New Year's Eve and the Lunar New Year."
"Yes, it should be a good omen."
Wei Jiahe licked her lips, thought for a moment, and said, "Then Mom, just cut this much today. My sister and I will just have a taste. We can save the rest and eat it slowly."
He gestured with his fingers, saying it was probably about an inch thick.
Song Wenwen truly sensed his change and nodded: "Okay, then let's stew a stew today and add some meat."
Wei Liang was happier than ever before as he watched this scene. Ever since Jiahe improved, this home finally felt like a real home.
He picked up Niu Niu and asked her softly, "Does Niu Niu like our home now?"
Niu Niu nodded, whispered in Wei Liang's ear, "I like it." Then she glanced at Wei Jiahe and said cautiously, "Brother hasn't bullied Niu Niu anymore."
Wei Liang smiled, stroking her short hair, and said, "Brother has grown up and become sensible. He will protect our Niu Niu from now on."
Niu Niu nodded, revealing her tiny teeth, and smiled with her eyes crinkling.
Shen Yanming was unaware of the Wei family's situation and returned home after delivering the holiday gifts. Now, he could finally relax and wait for the New Year.
The others in the base weren't as relaxed as him, because Wen Mengguan had just received a call from the capital.
The news was very encouraging; they said the helicopter had already departed and would arrive in about two hours. There are a lot of supplies this year, so they were asked to be prepared to receive them.
Wen Chaohui's lips curled into a wide smile, and he even started gossiping with Jiang Shulian about what good things were happening this year.
After arranging for a team to pick them up at the airport, Wen Mengguan, having nothing else to do, took Jiang Shulian to join in the fun.
Upon hearing the news, Su Sibin and Ming Jiakang followed. The group shivered in the cold wind, but their hearts were burning with excitement.
"Old Wen, I heard you got something good last time?" Su Sibin raised an eyebrow and whispered.
"What?" Wen Chaohui didn't react at first, and asked with a frown, "When have you ever not been given anything when things came from the capital?"
"That time, you know!" Su Sibin glanced around furtively, making sure everyone was avoiding him, before saying, "There was that one time your office smelled bad, and everyone said you had diarrhea. I didn't believe it. You must have eaten something delicious. Tell me, stinky tofu or durian?"
Wen Chaohui's facial muscles twitched uncontrollably. He stared at Su Sibin for a long time before finally saying, "Who the hell said I had diarrhea?"
Su Sibin was trying to suppress his laughter, but he couldn't control it; he was practically bursting with rage. "That's not the point. The point is, what did you eat?"
Wen Chaohui's face turned ashen, and he said without hesitation, "No!"
Su Sibin didn't believe him. He raised an eyebrow and said, "If you don't tell me, I'll go find Xiao Jiang. You know, he doesn't have that kind of mental fortitude."
Wen Chaohui remained silent.
"Oh, dear brother, just tell me."
Seeing that he didn't speak, Su Sibin changed his approach. But when he opened his mouth, he almost scared the Wen Alliance Officer to death.
He looked at the other person incredulously, thinking to himself, "You're a man in your forties or fifties, and you're still acting like a little girl?"
Seeing that Su Sibin was about to tug at his clothes again, Wen Chaohui could no longer bear it and said, "Durian, it's durian."
"Fine, I knew you were cheating on me. Waaah, my life is so miserable. Old Ming, come here quickly, let Old Wen give us justice!" Su Sibin pretended to cry, but his voice was still low.
Wen Chaohui looked up at everyone's twitching lips and couldn't help but push him with his hand: "You've gone too far. Aren't you afraid the young people will watch the show?"
Su Sibin immediately became serious: "Where did you get that durian?"
Wen Chao whispered a message about Shen Yanming's situation with the capital. Su Sibin nodded knowingly, "Do you think if we send honey over there, Captain Li might send us some durians in return?"
"What a pipe dream! Do you think there's no honey in the capital? With Li Sikai's space, he can't even keep a few bees. The fact that they're willing to give it to you is probably because of our past relationship. You should just forget about it."
"Heh, I was just joking. Little Shen is quite something, managing to connect with top bigwigs in the capital. He's not to be underestimated."
Wen Chao smiled and said, "Luckily, they're not enemies, and the couple is behaving themselves."
"Hmm, otherwise it would be really difficult. But if the capital city distributes fruit this time, you have to save some for me."
"I know, I know, didn't I already give you some last year?"
"That's nothing, just a few! They're gone before they even fill a tooth gap."
"They didn't give me many people in total, and I've already shared them all with you. That's more than enough, don't be ungrateful."
"Hehe, I was just thinking that since the space has been upgraded, the supplies should also be upgraded. I'm really looking forward to it, and I hope Captain Li can give us a surprise."
The two chatted for a while, and soon they heard the sound of a helicopter. They looked up and saw the familiar fuselage slowly descending.
A few minutes later, a familiar person appeared before everyone.
"Greetings, Lord Wen! I wish you a Happy New Year in advance. May your work go smoothly and all your wishes come true."
Wen Mengguan smiled and said, "I'm happy to share this with you. I also wish the young comrade peace and smooth sailing."
"There are quite a few gifts this year. Here is the list. Please sign for it."
Wen Mengguan nodded: "Okay, thank you for your hard work!"
Once the guard saw that the other party had taken the order, he began rummaging through the cabin to retrieve the items.
As he carried the items, he announced: "Ten fat pigs, five fat sheep, five fat cattle, two thousand catties of fresh fish, ten thousand catties of rice, ten thousand catties of wheat flour, five boxes of apples, five boxes of pears, one basket of grapes, one basket of lychees, one basket of loquats, twenty durians, two hundred catties of dried fruit, one hundred catties of candy, one hundred catties of dried fruit..."
"Wow, there are so many!" Wen Mengguan thought to himself.
After all the supplies were moved, the guard smiled and said, "This year the space was upgraded, so the supplies have doubled. Some of these are benefits from the Alliance for our guard team. Here, it's all written on the list; you can arrange them as you see fit."
Wen Mengguan nodded, signed the form, and gave one copy to the other party.
