In the evening, Tiantian and Song Shuxi got together. They were too lazy to cook, so they just heated up the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall left over from lunch.
After taking a sip of the soup, Tiantian said, "It's really delicious, but it's too expensive. I felt so bad when I saw all the ingredients in the pot, and I didn't want to waste them at all. Fortunately, it's winter now, and everyone's windows are tightly sealed, so the fragrance didn't get out. Otherwise, we would be scolded for spending money again."
Song Shuqian didn't quite agree, "I don't think we're a spendthrift at all. We've been eating well since we got married, Wei Jianguo's health has improved a lot, and the deficit he had before has been slowly made up.
When you are in good health, the training effect will be better. If the training is effective, the chance of injury during a mission will be reduced. This is a virtuous cycle.
Wei Jianguo’s salary can support my daily food expenses, but I can’t save much money. "
The more Song Shuqian spoke, the lower her voice became, as if she was a bit of a spendthrift.
Tiantian continued to drink the soup. "Now that you mention it, it's true. Our Lao Liu is in better health now. Do you want to work? I heard that the county is going to build a food factory next year. The army should have a quota."
Tiantian plans to fight for it. Life at home is good and Lao Liu gives her a monthly allowance, but it is too boring and there is no challenge at all.
"What about the children?"
"The current rumor is that we are going to build it, but it will take at least a year to build a factory, from proposal to approval to hiring, and then to formal production. One year is enough for us. I want to send my child to a nursery, which is full of children of factory employees. After one year old, they can be sent there.
When I'm not busy, I'll go over to see him and just feed him. "
"One year old, isn't that too young? Is it unsafe?"
"We'll talk about this when the time comes. If it really doesn't work out, I'll find an aunt to help me take care of the child. I'll drop the child off when I'm at work and pick him up when I get off work."
Song Shuqian felt that it was a little unreliable and she was worried without her child by her side.
"I want to wait until my children are older before considering a job."
Both of them didn't quite understand each other's thinking. Influenced by the end of the world, Tiantian feels that children must not be raised too weak. They must temper their will from an early age and learn to face the wind and rain from an early age. During Song Shuxi's Yong Dynasty, one child had to be taken care of by three or four people, and even a single bump could not be tolerated. Although she did not spoil her child that much, she still had to keep the child in front of her to feel at ease.
But, don't rush.
While the child is still in the belly, thoughts will change. Maybe you will not want to let go when you see how cute the child is.
It was already dark outside, and there were only Song Shuxi and Tiantian in the room. It felt a bit deserted, "This Spring Festival is not lively at all."
"It will be fine next year. We have three kids. We can play with them while they are still young."
It was really boring, so they both went back to their homes and went to sleep.
When Wei Jianguo came back, Song Shuxi was already asleep. The two dogs had dragged their nests into the room and fell asleep too.
Time passes day by day, and life is plain and warm.
That day, Wei Jianguo brought back a piece of news. "Wife, there is a job opportunity, do you want to go?"
Song Shuxi was reading "Journey to the West", which was a bedtime story she prepared for her children in advance.
At present, she is not interested in work at all. Just living with a big belly has taken up all her energy, and now she wants to give birth as soon as possible.
He asked lazily, "What job?"
Wei Jianguo said, "He is a translator from the Weaponry Research Institute. They are in urgent need of translators. A weapons expert who was brought back from abroad when we were on a mission before recommended him."
Translation, Song Shuqian became interested. "I'm in such a bad condition now that I definitely can't work. When the baby is born, I want to take care of it myself. So I can only bring the materials home to translate. Is that okay?"
"I'll go ask tomorrow."
Wei Jianguo came over and hugged Song Shuqian and said, "Wife, I'm quite conflicted. As for me, I don't want you to go out to work. It's too tiring to take care of the children and work at the same time. I can help you at home, but you will be so tired when I'm not at home.
But I also know that the value that talents like you can create is immeasurable. "
Being praised again, Song Shuqian smiled. "It's not settled yet. When you go ask Captain Zhang tomorrow, confirm the content of the work with him. If you need to go there to translate, forget it. I'm too heavy to walk too far now.
After the children were born, I was left alone to take care of two and couldn't do anything. "
Wei Jianguo agreed.
Song Shuxi had her own selfish motive for agreeing so quickly. She wanted to find someone to help take care of the child. There's no need to do anything complicated, just help wash diapers and clean the house.
Song Shuxi herself would never wash diapers. If she couldn't ask for help, she planned to contribute all the fabrics in the magic gourd and put away the ones that had been used.
Let Wei Jianguo wash them all.
She had not told Wei Jianguo about this idea and planned to wait and see what would happen if the baby was born.
Maybe you won’t be disgusted when you see the child.
Since things were not settled, she didn't take it seriously and just lived her life as usual.
Wei Jianguo has already mentioned this to his superiors, and proposed asking his sister-in-law from the family compound to come and take care of him during the confinement period. Political Commissar Xu agreed. In fact, this was a very common thing in the past. We all lived in the same family compound, and if someone had a problem, everyone would help.
Those who are helped will not let the help go in vain and will express their gratitude in some way.
It's just that the current situation is sensitive, so we have to be careful.
Political Commissar Xu stressed, "When selecting people, try to choose those with difficult families. If you need my help, come to me. The military competition is coming soon, so you should spend more time and strengthen your training."
Captain Zhang and Political Commissar Xu are very optimistic about Wei Jianguo. There is no limit to his physical strength. Every time they think he has reached his limit, he always manages to break through.
Quantitative change leads to qualitative change, and his leaders can see his training day after day.
Wei Jianguo has recently improved the training plan, and their battalion seems to have become stronger. Political Commissar Xu is waiting to see what happens.
It snowed again yesterday, and the whole world was covered in white. In her previous life, Song Shuxi had seen snow, but she had never seen such heavy snow.
I moved the rocking chair under the window, went over to get a pot of tea, and drank it while enjoying the snow.
Outside, Mo Ying and Lightning were having fun in the yard, chasing each other and getting covered in snow.
After looking for a long time, Song Shuxi returned to the study.
Take out the pen and ink and draw the scene just now.
She was in very good condition today, completing the whole process from line drawing to finished painting in one go.
Wei Jianguo came back with people from the Weapons Research Institute. At the gate, Wei Jianguo shouted, "Lightning, come and open the door, Mo Ying, go back and tell your sister that there are guests."
Wei Jianguo was reminding Song Shuqian to put away the book she was reading. She is very cautious and usually just takes out a book and puts it back right away.
Lightning used his hind legs to support himself and struggled to open the door with his front legs. One of his front legs was lame, otherwise he would have been able to open the door very quickly.
Wei Jianguo patted its head and said, "Thank you, Lightning."
Lightning wagged its tail proudly and walked in front to lead the way.
Wei Jianguo and the Weapon Research Institute introduced that "Lightning is a bit arrogant. Once you get familiar with it, it still feels a bit stubborn. Don't be surprised, it's not targeting anyone."
Song Shuxi treated Lightning and Mo Ying as her family members, and Wei Jianguo was influenced. Everything was subconscious, and he himself was not aware of it.
Mo Ying received Wei Jianguo's instructions and went into the house to call Song Shuqian.
