Chapter 208 Worry about the Future



"That's right. Look at how many of us military wives are college graduates." Another military wife also echoed.

"Okay, okay, just let Linglong go. She is young and has a fragile reputation. She is nothing like you guys." Sister-in-law Hao looked at Linglong and spoke.

"Lai Linglong, I know you have good cooking skills, so I will give up the position of chef today, and we will all help you." Sister-in-law of the Hao family said with a smile.

Linglong had come to help, and when the sister-in-law of the Hao family repeatedly helped her out, she immediately responded, "No problem, sister-in-law, leave it to me."

Seeing Linglong start to get busy, several military wives began to tease the sister-in-law of the Hao family again.

"This is because they dislike us because we are old-fashioned people."

"Alas, I'm just not as popular as the young ones."

"Come on, you guys! If you keep talking nonsense, I'll give each of you a carrot to shut up."

The kitchen was bustling with activity, and the people outside were no less bustling.

Those who want to light a cigarette light a cigarette, and those who want to drink tea drink tea.

Zheng Tiansen doesn't smoke much on weekdays, and at this moment he was just drinking tea slowly.

Knowing that his wife was back and he was in a good mood, everyone didn't let him go and insisted on dragging him into the queue to gossip.

Don't think that men don't gossip.

They were all from the same regiment, and at the moment they were discussing gossip about some people from other regiments and the division headquarters.

"Tiansen, you're going to be promoted again soon, right?" The director of the regiment said half-jokingly and half-seriously.

"No, I've only been at the regimental level for a short time."

"Well, you are different from us anyway." Another deputy captain sighed.

"Tiansen, your future path will definitely be longer than ours." Political Commissar Hao said with a smile. He was quite open-minded.

In fact, Zheng Tiansen already had some other ideas. He glanced towards the kitchen.

The kitchen is very smart, and while cooking, she has to deal with questions from other military wives.

Fortunately, no one teased her, but just asked her about things in Beijing, including her university life.

She had no contact with these people before, and now that she finally had this opportunity, everyone asked more questions.

When the food was served, Mrs. Hao started shouting to the men's table.

"This delicious meal today is basically all thanks to Linglong. You should thank Linglong very much."

When the men heard that the dish was cooked by Linglong, knowing her good cooking skills, they quickly picked up their chopsticks.

When Zheng Tiansen heard that the dishes were all cooked by his wife, he looked over worriedly. Only when he saw his wife's endlessly comforting eyes did he start to eat with peace of mind.

There was wine at the men's table, and while they were eating and drinking, some of them started to let loose.

"We've been training all day, and now we can't even see a single bandit. Do you think we'll have no more wars to fight in the future?"

"Peace is not good yet. You are the only one who thinks about fighting and killing all day long."

"No, that's not what I meant. I just feel bored from having so much free time all day."

"Oh, you feel free, I think you should move around."

A few men were talking casually, and Linglong, who overheard them, suddenly froze.

Fighting? She suddenly remembered something.

Not long after the Chinese New Year, the border situation will become tense.

She didn't remember how long the battle lasted, but she knew that it was the two of them who actually engaged in the fighting, and there were casualties.

Looking at the people at the table over there, especially Zheng Tiansen, her heart ached.

She didn't know that when that incident happened, how many of those sitting there would have to rush to the border front.

Because of this, all her meals after dinner tasted bland.

After the meeting, the couple went home together. Seeing that she didn't talk much and looked a little sad, Zheng Tiansen thought she was not feeling well.

"Are you tired today? Don't come to such gatherings again." He began to feel sorry for his wife.

"No, I'm not tired. I'm just responsible for cooking and the rest is done by the Hao family's sisters-in-law."

"So who are you?"

"I'm not busy. Go pick up Congcong quickly." She forced a smile.

"oh."

When they arrived at Tong's house, Congcong was still awake. Zheng Tiansen carried his son on his shoulders and went to their house.

On the way home, Linglong took a few deep breaths to adjust her mood.

The Zhong Linglong incident hasn't happened yet, and no one knows what will happen. If you start worrying about it so early, will you be able to celebrate the New Year?

After a lot of mental preparation along the way, she recovered a lot after returning home.

Seeing that she looked much better, Zheng Tiansen finally put his worries aside.

Linglong thought that this man would make more trouble tonight and was thinking about how to refuse him, but in the end he just held her quietly and slept.

Putting aside her worries about the future for the time being, she also had a good sleep.

In the next few days, Linglong tried her best not to think about the war.

Tong Dazhu's wedding was scheduled to take place on the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month.

Starting from the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month, Linglong began to go to the Tong family to help every day.

When she was in the most difficult time, the mother and son of the Tong family helped her a lot. They are also the few relatives she has now. Tong Dazhu is getting married, so how can she not do more to help?

Even now, few people in the army knew that she had no relationship with the Tong family, and they all treated her as a member of the Tong family.

As for the New Year's goods needed for the New Year, she had almost prepared them a few days before she went to the Tong family to help.

Zheng Tiansen and Tong Dazhu have a special relationship. Whenever they are free, they will come to help.

Starting from the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month, the three of them basically spent all their time at Xu Tong's house, except when they were sleeping and when Zheng Tiansen was on duty.

The house is bustling with activity every day. Aunt Tong is not bored at all, but very happy instead.

Her son Tong Dazhu's marriage has been a source of worry for her for many years. Now that she can finally see her son return home, she is in a surprisingly good mood.

Linglong is like Tong Dazhu's biological sister, going wherever she is needed.

The military families who also came to help, seeing Linglong's attentiveness, all praised Aunt Tong for being so lucky.

Isn't it a blessing? Aunt Tong deeply agrees. Although she didn't give birth to a daughter of her own, she now has an extremely caring daughter.

In the blink of an eye, it was the 28th, Tong Dazhu's wedding day.

Linglong got up when it was still dark and called Congcong.

Today, Zheng Tiansen also deliberately changed his duty shift so that he doesn't have to go to work.

After the three of them washed up and changed into new clothes, they went to Tong's house in high spirits.

They were among the first group to arrive.

Linglong was always there to support Aunt Tong, while Zheng Tiansen went to Tong Dazhu to prepare for the wedding.

My wife is getting married in the family quarters, so it is not difficult to pick her up.

Tong Dazhu's face was flushed, and he looked particularly energetic in his brand new military uniform.

Linglong couldn't help but tease him.

Although Congcong is small, he has a task these two days and is a bed rolling boy.

As more and more people gathered at the Tong family's house, the wedding officially began.

Tong Dazhu took his relatives and friends to pick up his wife in no time, and the wedding ceremony proceeded step by step according to the schedule.

The Chinese New Year is already a happy time, but because of this wedding, it becomes even more festive and lively.

Everyone's face was filled with smiles.

In this lively atmosphere, Linglong also forgot about those bad things.
