"If Auntie is poor, then we won't take the expensive ones. We can go to the wholesale market and get some cheap ones. Let's go back early and let mom bring us next time." Lu Zhiyan spoke from the side and was about to take the things back.
"Buy it, buy whatever you want. Auntie has already said so, how can I go back on my word?" Chen Huihui gritted her teeth. It was just a jar of candy. She could afford it.
"..." Zhao Yuan looked at Chen Huihui with pity, and suddenly understood why Lu Yuanting wanted him to follow. He knew very well what kind of people the two kids in Lu Yuanting's family were. They looked like glutinous rice balls, but they were filled with sesame seeds. Chen Huihui didn't know how she had offended the two children.
"Thank you, Auntie." After hearing this, Lu Zhiyan was too lazy to pretend. He put the candies into the basket and then took another look around.
The two children were obviously very discerning. Even though the items were placed on the counter, they still knew what was expensive.
After a round, the basket was full of things, including food, drinks and other things.
It would be at least one thousand.
Chen Huihui could no longer maintain her facial expression, her forehead was covered with sweat. When it was time to pay, she looked at the things in the basket and wanted to take them, but when she looked at the two children beside her, she wanted to say, "Auntie, are you poor?"
Finally, Chen Huihui gritted her teeth and bought them all.
Zhao Yuanxian took it upon himself to carry the things. He couldn't let a woman or a child carry them.
"Uncle Zhao, wear these gloves." Lu Zhiyao took out a pair of leather gloves from the bag and gave them to Zhao Yuan. They were bought in a department store. They were imported genuine leather gloves, and this pair cost two hundred yuan.
"She." Zhao Yuan didn't expect that he would have a share in this. He took the gloves and glanced at Chen Huihui's face, which was as black as the bottom of a pot.
"Auntie, you are so kind. Let's go play together next." Lu Zhiyan praised Chen Huihui and showed a rare smile on his face. This rekindled Chen Huihui's hope and made her feel that the money she spent today was worth it. Wouldn't this please the child?
"Hey, what to play?" Chen Huihui nodded, thinking about what the child likes to play, which are picture cards, skipping rope, lassoing, spinning tops and the like, and she is quite good at these.
"Practice shooting." Lu Zhiyan said seriously.
"Ah?" Chen Huihui's face froze and she glanced at the two 16-year-old children in front of her.
You must be kidding.
Then she realized it was no joke and was real.
Chen Huihui simply held up the target and started playing with the two children. What the children were playing with were definitely not real guns, but rubber bullets. Even if they hit the body, there would be no harm, just a little pain.
Lu Zhiyao was not standing by and watching, looking at his brother with admiration. Lu Zhiyan, with the same cool face as Lu Yuanting, was playing with the rubber gun in his hand. It was not known whether it was intentional or not, but the first few rubber bullets just grazed Chen Huihui's body, scaring her.
It was like playing, sometimes she got it right and sometimes she missed. After going through all this, Chen Huihui's face was as pale as paper.
However, Lu Zhiyan had a lot of fun.
By the time Chen Huihui reacted, it was already dark and Lu Yuanting had finished work and came to pick up the children. Lu Zhiyao and Lu Zhiyan immediately ran to Lu Yuanting and were picked up by Lu Yuanting, one on the left and one on the right.
"Captain Lu, the two children seem to like me very much. They played with me all day today." Chen Huihui became excited as she looked at Lu Yuanting who appeared in front of her. Her cheeks flushed a little. She finally had the chance to be seen by him and to have a say.
But Chen Huihui had just finished speaking.
"Dad, I don't like her." Lu Zhiyao hugged Lu Yuanting's neck and spoke.
"Well, I don't like her either." Lu Zhiyan nodded.
Chen Huihui was dumbfounded after hearing this.
"Yeah." Lu Yuanting hummed and glanced at Chen Huihui with a cold look, as if he knew what she was thinking. He didn't say anything and just sat there with the child in his arms.
Not long after Lu Yuanting passed away, Chen Huihui received a transfer notice. Lu Yuanting had applied for the transfer, which had been made when she had just arrived at the army a few days before. At that time, she had just revealed a little bit of her own thoughts, and she thought Lu Yuanting had not noticed, or had condoned it.
It turned out that Lu Yuanting was planning to transfer her at that time, but after all, the army had strict rules and regulations, and it took a few days to go through the process. Now that the transfer had just been made, he gave it to her immediately, and the meaning was obvious.
Chen Huihui took the transfer letter and glanced ahead. Her eyes were dazed and a little envious for a moment. After seeing that scene, she completely gave up.
Lu Yuanting was notoriously strict in the army, and he basically never smiled, like a grim devil. But now, after seeing his wife coming to the army to find him, the edges and corners of his face softened. With a smile on his face, he put the two children down, hugged his wife in his arms, and kissed her, a kiss that was very natural.
Even after being married for so many years, we don't feel tired at all. We still feel like newlyweds, and our feelings are even stronger.
No one can get in the way, and only his wife can enjoy all his tenderness and love.
"Lu Yuanting, you are so clingy. There are people watching us in the army. You are not still carrying the marriage certificate with you, are you?" Jiang Xia blushed. Although they are an old couple, it still... feels a bit awkward.
"Of course, I'm a married man." Lu Yuanting listened to Jiang Xia's words and took out a red document, which was their marriage certificate.
"..." Jiang Xia.
"Did you two have fun playing at dad's place today?" Jiang Xia looked at her two children.
"Have fun!" Lu Zhiyao said.
"Mom, Dad said he would make sweet and sour pork ribs for us today. It's time for dinner." Lu Zhiyan said.
"Yeah, that's right, Xiao, let's go home." Jiang Xia nodded and took his two children home.
Lu Zhiyao and Lu Zhiyan smiled at each other.
Today is another day of successfully protecting my mother! Yay, time to go home for dinner!
