With the arrival of Shen Limei, the military family compound became lively again.
Today this person comes to visit, tomorrow that person comes to deliver something, all of them come to see what Shen Congji's mother looks like.
They had originally planned to go to the city to buy New Year's goods on the 27th day of the lunar year, but there were too many people coming and going, so Liang Su postponed it for a day to let Shen Limei get familiar with the environment of the base first.
When Aunt Tian came to the door with something, she met Wu Na again.
She really didn't want to travel with Wu Na, but Wu Na was like a dog-skin plaster and couldn't be gotten rid of.
The two had no choice but to go to Shen Congji's house together.
"Xiao Su." Aunt Tian called out in the yard. After entering the door and seeing Shen Limei, she smiled: "This is your mother-in-law, right?"
Liang Su introduced with a smile: "Mom, this is Aunt Tian, our neighbor."
Aunt Tian put her things down and said with a smile, "I'm younger than you, so I call you Sister Limei. Yesterday I thought you should rest since you just arrived, so I came here today."
Shen Limei smiled gently, "It's okay, I just got here and was looking for someone to talk to, and you guys came."
Aunt Tian said, "I remember you guys are going to buy New Year's goods today, right?"
"Let's go tomorrow." Liang Su came out with tea.
Wu Na said with a serious look, "Just buy New Year's goods, don't buy any random things. Sister Limei, you don't know, your daughter-in-law knows how to spend money."
Shen Limei received several people, and everyone picked up Liang Suhao's words. This was the first time she heard such words.
But since it was their first meeting, she didn't want to make things awkward, so she just said, "Liang Su can make her own money, so it's okay for her to spend a little more. I haven't seen her spend money recklessly."
Wu Na clicked her tongue twice, "That's because you didn't see it. A while ago, Aji bought her a lot of gold jewelry and a pearl necklace. It looked expensive."
Shen Limei smiled and pretended to be surprised: "This is basically how marriages are done over there. The betrothal gifts are not much, but hardware must be bought. Even if Aji doesn't buy it, I will still talk to him."
Wu Na's face froze. "You have such strict rules there, and you still buy hardware."
“It’s not that the rules are too complicated, like three turns and one ring or something like that, we don’t really require it.” Shen Limei smiled faintly.
Wu Na's smile was stiff, and the words she was about to say were blocked back. What else was there to say?
After sitting for a while, she left with an unhappy look on her face.
Aunt Tian shook her head secretly, thinking that Wu Na came here on purpose to cause trouble for others.
Criticizing your daughter-in-law in front of her mother-in-law is just sowing discord.
What a lack of tact.
"Sister Limei, don't take it to heart. She's just like that. Just ignore her."
Shen Limei smiled gently, “No.”
There are so many people in the military family compound, and not everyone can become her friend.
In addition to Shen Limei, the person that attracted the most attention was Liang Qin's mother Zhan Xinlan who also came.
Since Liang Qin married Rao Yu, no one has ever heard her mention her family.
It was just by chance that some people heard that Liang Qin and Liang Su had some relationship, but it was just speculation because neither party came out to respond.
Gradually, everyone stopped even guessing.
Liang Qin used the excuse of preparing for pregnancy to get Rao Yu to agree to let Zhan Xinlan come and take care of him.
Compared to letting Zhan Xinlan make an embarrassing scene in front of Rao Yu, this result is already very good.
Liang Qin picked up Zhan Xinlan from the station and brought her to the base.
Along the way, Zhan Xinlan was commenting on this place.
"Although it's an island, it's not as desolate as I imagined."
Liang Qin rolled her eyes at her and said, "If this place is desolate, why would the troops settle here?"
Zhan Xinlan knew that she was impatient to receive her, but she didn't care.
Since she has already come here, she has no intention of leaving.
"Liang Qin, your father is so heartless. He hasn't even divorced me yet, but he's already found another woman. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have come all the way here to live with you."
Liang Qin was impatient to listen to these things and kept silent.
Zhan Xinlan didn't say enough and kept talking about how hard her life was.
The money Liang Qin gave her was originally enough for her to live on, but Liang Cong spent most of it on gambling, leaving them with a tight budget.
When she thought of this, Zhan Xinlan hated Liang Cong to death.
"Liang Qin, no matter what you say, you are my biological daughter. You are the only one I can rely on. You can't be as heartless as your father."
Liang Qin said coldly: "If you weren't my biological mother, I wouldn't have let you come here. But I told you in advance, since you are here, you are not allowed to cause trouble and live a good life."
Zhan Xinlan said embarrassedly, "What kind of trouble can I cause?"
Liang Qin glanced at her and said, "Don't tell me you don't hate Liang Su."
Because of Liang Su, the Liang family has reached this point today.
Not to mention Zhan Xinlan, even Liang Qin hates her.
Originally, after she married Rao Yu, she still had a reliable family, but now she has no choice but to rely on Liang Yu.
Zhan Xinlan's face darkened. "Of course I hate her! That bitch Liang Su, when I think of her now, I want to skin her alive! Liang Qin, she's our lifelong enemy! Mom doesn't know how much she regrets it. She shouldn't have adopted her in the first place. She should have just sold her to the mountains."
This way, I won’t have to think of Qiao Yu every time I see her, and feel uncomfortable.
Liang Qin: "This is a base. There are only military families here, no enemies. Let me remind you again, since you have come to me for refuge, you are not allowed to cause any trouble, including Liang Su. Do you hear me?"
Zhan Xinlan had no choice but to suppress her dissatisfaction and said reluctantly, "I understand."
When they arrived at the gate of the base, Liang Qin issued her an entry and exit pass.
After getting the pass, the two of them walked in.
Zhan Xinlan originally thought that life here was quite difficult, but she didn't expect that it was a completely different world inside.
The houses built side by side all have the same layout and have vegetable gardens outside.
"Is the house you live in this big?" asked Zhan Xinlan.
Liang Qin nodded, "The layout here is the same. Those above the division level live in single-family houses, which are better."
Not only is the house better, but the security is also better.
With Rao Yu's current rate of promotion, it is unknown when she will be able to live in such a nice house.
Zhan Xinlan looked around like Granny Liu visiting the Grand View Garden.
"Liang Qin, where does Liang Su live?"
Liang Qin looked straight ahead and said, "You don't need to know where she lives, because you won't have any contact with her in the future."
"Is it not possible for me to catch up with her?"
"What's the point of reminiscing about the past? Mom, if people knew that you were the one who switched me with Liang Su, how would they look at me? Then you'd be a human trafficker in their eyes, and Rao Yu would definitely send me back to his hometown!"
Liang Qin was a little angry. She had just explained it repeatedly, but Zhan Xinlan didn't listen to a word she said.
