Chapter 328: Meeting of In-Laws
Lin Qingqing opened the car door and let Lin's mother get in first.
"Let's talk about it when we get back."
She patted Xiaomei, who was talking to Jiang Haixia through the car window.
It was almost six o'clock when the three of them returned to the room.
As soon as Zhou Lie stopped the car, Damao and several children ran over, shouting, "Auntie, your house is so big."
Lin Qingqing patted their chubby heads one by one, took out a handful of White Rabbit candies from her bag, and placed them in the children's hands: "Come play in the yard."
Lin's mother got out of the car grabbing a bag of things, and Zhaodi and several sisters-in-law hurried out to get the things.
Their steps were fast but not chaotic.
They were brought here not long ago, and only after seeing this big house did they realize that their sister-in-law's husband was not an ordinary Kyoto native, and their brother-in-law was not an ordinary soldier either.
Now, they didn't need Mother Lin's reminders, as they were all very alert and made sure not to bring the habits from the village and embarrass their sister-in-law.
Xiaomei went to the door and talked to Jiang Haixia.
Mother Lin pointed at the bags in the hands of her daughters-in-law and said to the Lin family, "Adults and children, quickly change your clothes and get ready. We'll go to Ni'er's house for dinner later."
"Hey." Responses came from all directions.
Everyone came over to get their clothes and went back to their rooms to change.
Father Lin had divided the rooms for everyone. He and Mother Lin shared a room, sleeping with Damao and Simao. The six sons slept in two rooms. The daughters-in-law and Xiaomei slept in three rooms with their children. Zhou Lie had a room to himself, and the other room was Lin Qingqing's bedroom.
Song Yiyuan was in the yard discussing with Lin Qingqing what to do next in the compound. There were more than a dozen members of the Lin family, and more than ten children. Even if the adults carried the children in a car, they would have to make four trips back and forth.
"Sister~ there are many military vehicles coming."
Xiaomei suddenly ran in from outside and shouted to Lin Qingqing.
Zhou Lie, who was sitting in the car, stuck his head out and took a look with his eyes narrowed.
He shouted, "It's a Kyoto Military District vehicle, and there's no one in it."
Song Yiyuan and Lin Qingqing hurried to the door and saw that three military jeeps had stopped steadily.
Wei Bo got out of the first car, trotted over, saluted, and said to Song Yiyuan, "Old Marshal Song asked us to drive over to pick someone up."
It turned out that Grandpa Song arranged a car to pick up the Lin family.
Song Yiyuan also returned a military salute to Wei Bo: "Got it."
Wei Bo turned around, glanced at Jiang Haixia standing by the door, and trotted back to the car.
Jiang Haixia also glanced at Wei Bo in the same way, without any unnecessary expression on her face.
The Lin family members changed their clothes one after another and came out of the room.
The children were all wearing brand new clothes and laughing in the yard.
After more than two months of improved diet, the children have become much whiter and plumper, and look more like children.
The twins, Qimao and Bamao, can already run. Wearing their stylish blue overalls, they run around with their older brother and sister, with smiles on their faces all the time.
Zhaodi and the others held their children, fearing that their clothes would get dirty if they played with them later.
Lin Baojun brought out a basin of hot water from the kitchen: "My younger sister bought a wash basin and soap, everyone, come and wash your faces with the hot water."
After he said that, he picked up the basin and hit the second basin.
Washing it once definitely won’t work, you have to wash it twice.
Mother Lin came out of the room and walked around the yard, checking if everyone was dressed properly. Seeing Xiaomei still chatting and laughing with the stern-faced girl at the door, she ran over and grabbed Xiaomei's arm: "Oh, Xiaomei, it's almost dark, what are you doing..."
Halfway through her words, she saw three cars in the alley, with a soldier standing next to each car like a pole.
She pointed at the cars, but before she asked, Lin Qingqing had already answered.
"Grandpa saw that there were so many of us, so he sent three cars to take us across at once. Mom, you don't have to be so anxious."
