Chapter 668: Eating at the Military District Courtyard
After working until six o'clock, Lin Qingqing and Song Yiyuan went home together.
In the evening, the two of them were going to the Song family for dinner, and today they brought their four children with them.
After returning home, Lin Qingqing changed out of her military uniform and put on soft and comfortable home clothes. She picked up the children's products prepared by her mother and got in the car.
Lin's mother and Li Zhaodi stood at the door of the car and handed the children in their hands to Song Yiyuan and Lin Qingqing in the car.
The two men held the two children, one on each side, and the car drove steadily towards the military compound.
Xinnongcun is only about ten minutes' drive from the military compound.
The distance is relatively close, so we arrived quickly.
As soon as the car stopped in front of the Song family's house, Grandpa Song, Grandma Song, Father Song and Mother Song opened the car door to pick up the child.
It’s just right for each person to hold one.
Song Yiyuan was carrying a big bag and walking behind Lin Qingqing.
People who were walking and chatting around started talking in low voices when they saw Lin Qingqing coming back with four children.
"The fourth daughter-in-law of the Song family is pregnant for the fourth time. She was not at the Song family from the time she became pregnant to the time she gave birth. The child was almost three months old before she came back. Wow, the Song family is really good to this little daughter-in-law."
"I heard that they're going to have a hundred-day banquet for the four children in a few days."
Food was so precious in that era. Even the Song family relied on public grain, so the amount of food was limited.
This buffet is really a big deal.
Everyone felt that the Song family was too good to their fourth daughter-in-law.
The mother's family takes care of the child during the postpartum period.
I don't have to go back to the military area to take care of my parents-in-law. I just live on my own. Life is so easy.
Someone chuckled.
"Song's youngest son-in-law is almost like a live-in son-in-law now. I see he hasn't been back in the past few months."
When the others heard this, they thought it was a very accurate description and nodded in agreement.
As soon as Lin Qingqing entered the Song family, she was warmly welcomed by everyone.
"Qingqing, come and sit here." Zhou Yingying pulled her to sit down.
Zhuang Chaoyue also sat down next to Lin Qingqing with a smile on her face.
Wu Fangnian brought over a plate of fruit and invited everyone to eat.
The four elders of the Song family sat in the middle, holding their children, with satisfied expressions on their faces.
Zhuang Chaoyue was a very eccentric person. As soon as she sat down, she smiled and said, "Qingqing, congratulations! You've been promoted to lieutenant general. Now you're one rank higher than Mom."
Mother Song didn't mind this at all. She said, "I earned my military position through hard work, and Qingqing earned it on her own. This isn't as simple as just getting a higher rank."
The eldest brother Song Yunhui said, "My sister-in-law is the youngest lieutenant general in the country. I'm afraid there won't be another person as powerful as her in the future."
Song Yunhai walked over to Song Yiyuan and whispered, "Xiao Si, your sister-in-law is now a lieutenant general. Are you under a lot of pressure?"
Song Yiyuan glared at his third brother.
"you guess."
He said unhappily.
Zhou Yingying looked at Lin Qingqing while speaking. Seeing that she was being praised by everyone without a trace of complacency or arrogance, she felt a little admiration in her heart.
Who can remain so calm in such a high military position as general?
Even if my father-in-law is promoted now, he can't live a normal life.
What’s more, my fourth brother’s wife is only nineteen years old.
She had noticed before that her fourth sister-in-law didn't care about such material possessions, but she didn't know what kind of thing could make her calm face change.
She was secretly curious and congratulated him, "Qingqing, congratulations."
Lin Qingqing responded to everyone with a smile.
Everyone sat for a while and then started eating.
Grandpa Song and Grandma Song, Father and Mother Song held the child and were reluctant to let go even at the dinner table.
