However, Zheng Tiansen just hugged his wife and did not make any other unnecessary movements.
Linglong snuggled in her husband's broad arms, feeling sweet in her heart.
After taking a short nap at home, Zheng Tiansen got up, washed his face, and went back to work.
Before leaving, he told Linglong that if she had any problems, she could call his office.
After he left, Linglong went to ask her neighbors about buying groceries.
A new deputy division commander was transferred in, and the surrounding military families knew about it.
News in the family quarters also spread quickly.
However, at first, Zheng Tiansen didn't bring his family with him, so some people thought he was single. Some people who had seen his appearance were wondering if they could introduce him to someone.
But after asking her husband, she gave up the idea.
They knew that Zheng Tiansen had family, but his family did not follow the army, which made other military families curious.
As a result, Linglong showed up today with her son.
Zheng Tiansen lives in this yard, and his neighbors on both sides are the most curious about what's going on in his home.
After all, they are so close, and everyone would want to have a neighbor who gets along well with them.
The military wife that Linglong was asking about looked to be around forty years old. When she saw Linglong up close, she was a little surprised.
"Are you Deputy Chief Zheng's lover?"
"Yes, hello sister-in-law, I'm Zhong Linglong, you can call me Xiao Zhong or Xiao Linglong."
"Xiao Zhong, you are so young."
Linglong smiled. "What's your name, Sister-in-law?"
"My last name is Zhao, and my name is Zhao Aihong."
"Then I'll ask you to love Sister Hong."
"OK."
"Sister Aihong, I want to ask, where do we buy our groceries?"
"Buying groceries. Wait, I want to buy some too. Let's go together."
"Sister-in-law, I'm really sorry to bother you."
"No trouble, no trouble."
Linglong hurried home, found a basket, and brought Congcong out.
There was no one at home, and she couldn't let her son stay at home alone. Congcong was too young and she was worried.
When Zhao Aihong came out again, she looked surprised when she saw her holding Congcong's hand.
"Is this your son?"
"Well, my son, come and visit Congcong. Come on, Congcong, visit your aunt."
"Hello, auntie." Congcong's baby voice is so adorable.
Zhao Aihong is so cute.
"Hey hey hello, that's so cute."
The eldest child in Zhao Aihong's family is already ten years old, and she is looking forward to holding her grandson. Now when she sees the cute Congcong, she likes him so much.
Because she was smart, she looked at Linglong more kindly, which was an unexpected effect.
With Congcong following them, they walked much slower, but fortunately, neither of them was in a hurry.
On the way to buy groceries, Zhao Aihong also asked about Linglong's situation.
"I didn't see you guys coming over the past few days. Is your home far away?"
"Fortunately, I live in the capital."
"Oh? You're too busy at work?"
“Sister-in-law, I’m still in college and don’t have a job.
"Oh, you are still a college student. How old are you this year, Linglong?" Zhao Aihong was a little surprised.
"I was ten years old and started working a few years ago. I took the college entrance exam after it was reinstated and only quit my job after passing it."
"Which university did you attend?"
"We are the People's Congress of Beijing."
"Wow, you are really amazing." When the college entrance examination was resumed, Zhao Aihong's eldest son had just graduated from high school and took the exam on his own, but he had not taken his studies seriously before and did not pass the exam.
It was because there was a current college entrance examination candidate in her family that Zhao Aihong realized how amazing it was for someone like Linglong to pass the college entrance examination after the resumption of the exam even though she had already worked.
"Fortunately, it's all thanks to my husband. Before the college entrance examination was reinstated, he knew I loved reading, so he helped me find a lot of textbooks and materials. I guess I'm a bit of an early bird."
However, even if she knew that the college entrance examination would be resumed, she might not have passed it without sufficient preparation. For this, she was truly grateful to her husband.
"I can tell you and Deputy Commander Zheng have a good relationship."
"It's okay." Linglong smiled.
It’s really hard to find the place to buy vegetables without someone you know to lead you there.
But maybe it was because it was afternoon and there weren't many fresh vegetables.
Fortunately, Linglong’s main task today is to scout the location.
The two of them picked some dishes at random, and when they came out, Zhao Aihong whispered to Linglong.
"Actually, the old folks in the village over here often sell their own vegetables. They're fresh and cheap. You can see them if you walk a little outside our camp."
Linglong nodded.
"Sister-in-law, if you want to grow vegetables in our yard, you can do that, right?"
"Of course, there are people growing them in the family quarters. Why, do you want to grow some too?"
"I think if I plant a few kinds of vegetables, I can cover most of the vegetables I eat on a daily basis."
"Now that you mention it, I'm tempted." She had thought about it before, but since several families around her didn't grow it, she felt embarrassed and was afraid of being laughed at.
Now that Linglong is with me, I want to follow her.
"Then I'll find some vegetable seeds and we can plant them together."
"Okay, then we have a deal."
"good."
After returning home, Linglong put the vegetables away and started planning a place to grow them in the yard.
Because of the lack of tools at home, she couldn't organize it properly now, so she could only plan ahead.
Seeing that the house didn't have all the oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and seasonings, Linglong had to borrow some from Zhao Aihong next door before cooking.
"Look at me, I've only taken you shopping for groceries today, and haven't even gone to the grocery store yet."
"Don't worry, sister-in-law. We can wait a little longer."
The camp here is large, and the vegetable purchasing point and the grocery store are not in the same place.
Since they buy groceries together and make an appointment to grow vegetables together, their relationship is now very good.
After looking at the furnishings in the house, Linglong felt that she had to buy another big item.
At least a refrigerator is a must.
Oh, and I need to buy another bicycle too.
With a bicycle, she can ride back and forth to the area in the future.
When Zheng Tiansen returned home from work, he smelled the familiar aroma of food.
After eating in the cafeteria for several days, he was very happy to finally be able to eat home-cooked meals made by his wife.
While eating, Linglong mentioned the agreement she made with her sister-in-law Zhao Aihong next door.
"Planting vegetables! Hurry up and let Xiao Li know so he can find you a hoe and shovel and help you cultivate the vegetable patch."
"Just ask Xiao Li to bring me the tools. I can do it myself. It's not much."
"Look, if Xiao Li has nothing to do, he'll help you with some work."
"Oh, by the way, I want to buy a new refrigerator and a bicycle. It's still hot out, and things don't need to be stored easily. A bicycle will make it easier for me to commute to the area."
"Then buy it. You can choose whatever you want." Anyway, the financial power of the family is in the hands of the daughter-in-law, but the daughter-in-law discusses all household matters with him, and he accepts it.
"Well, after I finish cultivating the vegetable patch, I'll go back home. I also have some clothes and other things that I've packed up and brought back this time."
"That must be a lot of stuff. Let Xiao Li drive you."
This time Linglong didn't refuse because there were so many things.
