When Si Guangming returned home, the Si family was preparing to have dinner!
He had known that the children had returned and was happy, but he had too many meetings and was too busy to get away, so he had to call home and tell them that he would be back later.
No one in the family waited for him to eat, but there were so many people around, and they were busy with things like hammering here and there, so they had a late dinner.
Making dumplings is a time-consuming job. If there are more than ten people in a family, how many dumplings do you have to make?
When Si Guangming arrived home, the dumplings cooked by hand were just served on the table. Even Si Qianjin couldn't help but tease him, "The blessed people don't have to work hard. They can eat ready-made food as soon as they enter the house."
Everyone in the room started laughing.
"That's true! This person in our family is destined to enjoy a good life." Ning Yu distributed bowls and chopsticks while saying, "Go wash your hands quickly."
"Ah, as you command!"
This is the fate of the men in the Si family. No matter how powerful they are outside, they have to listen to their wives when they return home.
Si Guangming not only changed his clothes, but also took a shower. He had been in a meeting for half a day and his body was covered with the smell of cigarettes. It was said that they were implementing a smoking ban and smoking was not allowed during meetings, but in fact, this was as difficult as climbing to the sky.
Many comrades are heavy smokers and never put down their cigarettes, especially when they are in meetings. It seems that they can only think clearly with a cigarette in their hands.
Si Guangming was mindful of the dangers of secondhand and thirdhand smoke, and did not want his two children to suffer, so he quickly washed himself from head to toe with soap to make sure there was no smell of smoke on his body. Then he changed into clean clothes and soaked the clothes he had taken off in water.
After changing his clothes, Si Guangming hugged the two children and cherished them. Like Si Qianjin, he hadn't seen his children for twenty days and missed them very much. But he was also afraid that the two children would become strangers to him.
"Hurry up and eat. Both children are sleepy."
Si Guangming put the child down, sat at the table, and drank some wine with the two elders of the Jiang family.
Eat dumplings and drink wine, the more you eat, the more you have!
Halfway through their meal, Chao Chao and Mu Mu were so sleepy that they couldn't open their eyes.
Si Xinnian quickly took the children into the house. When the two children came back, they had already taken a bath and changed their clothes. Before dinner officially started, they drank milk and ate rice. They just ate two dumplings, so they were definitely not hungry at all.
Ning Yu wanted to go too, but was stopped by Si Xinnian, "Sister-in-law, you don't need me. I haven't seen the baby for a long time. I can do it alone."
Si Zhen said, "Mom, you eat! My aunt and I will take care of the child."
In fact, the two babies are very well behaved and do not need to be coaxed at all. Having someone around them makes them feel safe and they will fall asleep quickly.
These two children are very easy to take care of and never cry easily.
The meal lasted more than two hours before it ended. At the end, Si Lu drove the Jiang family’s elders and Li Yuejin and his mother back to the courtyard.
The courtyard had not been occupied for more than 20 days, and there was a lot of dust in the house. Si Lu and Jiang Chuanjun fetched two buckets of water, wiped the dust in the house, and mopped the floor twice before it looked passable.
Both of them were soldiers, and they couldn't stand anything dirty or messy. Besides, the two elders were not young anymore, even Li Yuejin was over 50 years old, how could they dare to let the old people do it?
"Grandpa, grandma, auntie, you should go to bed early! I'll go back first."
We have been riding the train for three days straight, and the journey has been a bit exhausting. When we were at Si's house before, there were so many people and it was not a big deal. Now it is late at night, and I am back home, and I feel exhausted all of a sudden.
"Okay, then drive slowly on the road."
No one said anything polite, it was just too tiring.
"OK."
"Chuanjun, go and see them off."
Si Lu walked out and Jiang Chuanjun followed him out.
"Brother, go back and have some rest! I'm leaving now."
"Okay." Jiang Chuanjun didn't hesitate. He watched Si Lu leave the alley and heard the sound of the jeep starting. Then he turned around and returned to the courtyard.
He locked the gate and went into the house, inserted the bolt, and put the wooden stick against the door to prevent thieves. Then he turned off the lights and got into bed.
Si Lu drove the car into the compound, parked at the gate, and walked into the yard.
Xiaobai poked his head out of the nest, saw it was him, and shrank back in.
When Si Lu walked in, the room was quiet with only one light on. The whole family was resting.
The lights on the second floor were still on. He washed up in the bathroom, turned off the lights, and quietly went upstairs.
Jiang Yan had just finished washing up. "You're back. Why are you so late?"
"No one has lived in the house for half a month. There is dust everywhere. My brother and I cleaned it up. Otherwise, it would be difficult to live in."
Jiang Yan hugged his neck and kissed him, "You've worked hard. Take a rest quickly. You have to go to work tomorrow!"
The couple's vacation was originally only fifteen days, but it was stretched to twenty days. It would be a bit unreasonable if they didn't go back to work.
"good!"
Si Lu also felt a little tired, mainly because he felt sorry for Jiang Yan and didn't have the heart to bother her, so he changed into his pajamas and lay down beside her.
After turning off the desk lamp, the room became dim. Jiang Yan snuggled in Si Lu's arms and soon fell asleep.
No words were spoken that night.
The next morning, Jiang Yan's biological clock woke her up on time. She and Si Lu quickly got up, washed up, and prepared to go to work.
Breakfast at home had been prepared long ago, including steamed buns, porridge, pickles and eggs.
Jiang Yan felt that time was running out, so she put two steamed buns and an egg in her pocket, said goodbye to her family, and rode her bike to work.
When I returned to the capital again, my mood immediately changed.
When she was in the Northeast, she felt relaxed and comfortable. She woke up every day to the sound of roosters crowing in the village, smelled the mountain air, and the aroma of burning pine resin when cooking. She felt so relaxed.
But as soon as she returned to the capital, she immediately entered into working mode, feeling as if she was going to the battlefield. Although she couldn't be said to be in full working order, it was almost the same.
The first thing Jiang Yan did when he arrived at the research institute was to report to his master and cancel his leave.
"I think you are enjoying yourself so much that you don't want to come back!"
Mr. Xu didn't know what to say. "You only asked for half a month's leave, and then extended it by five or six days. What are you going to do?"
"Hehe." Jiang Yan said immediately: "Master, I am back. Besides, it's not that I don't want to come back, it's just that something happened, so I came back late."
"What's going on? You're a researcher, what kind of things can happen to you?"
Jiang Yan then told him about Bao Shengli.
"I can't just watch my comrades die and do nothing! That Wu guy has committed many evil things and has 29 lives on his shoulders. If he is not arrested, who knows how many more people will die! Am I getting rid of a scourge for the people?"
When Xu Tianlai heard this, he immediately lost his temper, "Really?"
Jiang Yan immediately said, "I dare not lie to you. This is a real story, truer than real gold. If you don't believe me, go and ask."
