Chapter 113 Newly Married Old Man
After showing off, the "taciturn" and "cold-blooded" He Tuan went back to his office with his invisible tail raised, ignoring the pale faces of Wei Guoping and Yu Zhengyi.
Yu Zhengyi looked at Wei Guoping with an awkward expression.
"He was like this in the morning, too?"
Wei Guoping thought about it and realized that everything was fine in the morning and he didn’t notice it.
But when it was time for lunch at noon, he was holding his lunch box and was about to call He Tuan, who was working hard, to go to the cafeteria to eat, but he saw his back hurriedly disappearing in the corridor.
At that moment, Wei Guoping didn't know what had happened to him and thought something serious had happened.
He ran up and chased after him, and finally caught up with the long-legged He Yan after running out of breath.
When he grabbed He Yan's arm and asked if there was anything important, He Yan looked at him with confusion.
Wei Guoping can still recall those cold words.
"Lao Wei, I'm going home for dinner. You're not going home? Oh, my wife is still waiting for me at home, so I won't talk to you for now."
Wei Guoping looked at Yu Zhengyi, who was looking for an answer, and nodded heavily.
He said, "Old Yu, I think it would be better for you to talk less to Old He during this period of time."
"Why?" Yu Zhengyi began to rebel when he heard Wei Guoping say that.
Why! Could it be that Old He said bad things about him behind his back?
Wei Guoping said earnestly: "You can't mess with an old man who's just married."
He looked at Yu Zhengyi's face, which looked as if he had eaten bitter herbs, and added another sentence.
"We're fine, but as an older single man like you, you might be upset by him."
Yu Zhengyi gritted his teeth and looked at Wei Guoping, his voice forced out from between his teeth.
"Old Wei, don't you think I'm in a bad mood now?"
Wei Guoping smiled awkwardly. In the end, the way the two of them ended the conversation peacefully was something that even they found magical.
Compared with them, He Yan felt happy the whole afternoon.
More than one person was frightened by his smile.
And everyone felt a little comforted when they saw that the next person was also frightened by his smile and gentle attitude.
When He Yan got off work, he thought of Jiang Yingying waiting for him at the staff quarters, and he felt very happy. He walked a lot faster than usual.
Yu Hongbing looked at the backs of his own Hetuan as they ran away as soon as the time came, and shook his head. The difference was too big.
In the past, his He Tuan was a "workaholic" and had worked overtime all night in the office building. If it had not been explicitly forbidden by his superiors, Yu Hongbing felt that his He Tuan would be able to stay up late in the office building every day.
After the whole day today, Yu Hongbing felt that his He Tuan had changed, and the change was huge.
To be honest, not only the Red Soldiers, but the rest of the regiment were privately discussing how great the changes in the He regiment were. It was so great that it was a bit scary for them, but they were happy in their hearts.
The previous He Tuan was also very good, with high requirements for physical fitness and combat training. The current He Tuan is even better. You can see that he is in a good mood. All this is because of my sister-in-law.
"Yingying, I'm back!"
“I’m back!”
Seeing Jiang Yingying's smile as she welcomed him home, Captain He's lips, which had been curled up all day, became even more curled up, and he could hardly purse them.
He Yan reached out and hugged Jiang Yingying, and Jiang Yingying hugged him back.
"Welcome home."
When Jiang Yingying let him go, Jiang Yang imitated her and opened his arms. With his short stature, he only hugged He Yan's calves.
"Uncle, welcome home."
Jiang Yingying laughed loudly, while Xu Zhishu turned away before she could stop the chubby Jiang Yang when the couple greeted each other warmly, unable to bear to watch any longer.
The smile on He Yan's face became even more obvious. He picked up Jiang Yang and tossed him in the air.
Jiang Yang shouted excitedly a few times, "Haha, Uncle, Uncle!" After landing, he was still savoring the feeling of flying in the air.
Jiang Yang was still a little eager to try, but when he looked at his uncle who had already stuck to Jiang Yingying, he felt that there was not much hope.
So he withdrew his gaze regretfully, and walked back to Xu Zhishu with his short legs. As soon as he arrived there, Xu Zhishu secretly slapped his fat butt a few times.
Jiang Yang covered his butt and moved a little further away from Xu Zhishu, feeling a little aggrieved.
Seeing He Yan coming back, Xu Zhishu sat for a while. She took Jiang Yang's hand and said, "Yingying, we are going back. We will come to play with you tomorrow."
Jiang Yingying was a little reluctant to leave, so He Yan took the initiative to say, "Sister-in-law, it's almost time for dinner. Let's eat here before leaving."
Jiang Yang was holding Xu Zhishu's hand. He really wanted to stay with his aunt and her family forever, especially since there was a black back at his aunt's house!
But he looked up at the expression of his mother, Comrade Xu Zhishu, and chose to remain silent, as if there was something big to be announced.
After listening to He Yan's words and looking at Jiang Yingying again, Xu Zhishu smiled with relief.
She said, "Yingying, He Yan, I know you invited us to your house for dinner, not out of courtesy or anything."
"I am very happy. I am happy to have a sister and brother-in-law like you."
"But, Yingying, after you have a family, things will change. This change is not necessarily good, nor is it necessarily bad."
Xu Zhishu smiled and looked at Jiang Yingying with watery eyes.
"Yingying, what I know is that after you have your own family, you will have someone who loves you as much as we do. In the future, you two will have more children, maybe one, or maybe two or three."
"We are happy that you have someone who loves you so much, and we are also happy that you have grown up, have your own little family, and become an adult. As your elders, we still love you as before, but behaviors like freeloading on others' meals can only be an occasion, not a necessity."
"Otherwise, it might destroy the harmony of your little family. As people who love you and you love someone too, we don't want you to be embarrassed about this matter."
"Sister-in-law, I wouldn't..." He Yan was eager to defend himself. He really didn't think there was anything wrong with their family staying for dinner.
Xu Zhishu nodded with a smile, "Of course we understand, but the outside world's comments may change our mood in the future. Maybe we will take it for granted that you cook for us, or maybe one day you will get tired of eating with us. I don't want to see either of these two possibilities happen."
"Yingying, you don't have to feel that there is something wrong. Before you came to the military region, couldn't our family of three handle the problem of eating by ourselves?"
…
Xu Zhishu said a lot, but these words were full of her love for Jiang Yingying and her emphasis on the long-term development of the relationship between the two families.
