"What kind of vegetable seeds are these?" asked Wang Juan's husband, Deputy Director Sun.
Zheng Tiansen and Zhao Aihong's husband Yu Zhengwei both shook their heads. This was all their wives' concern, and they really didn't know about it.
Zhao Aihong had already discussed this with Linglong. "Eggplant, cucumber, tomato, pepper, that's basically it."
Deputy Director Sun found it interesting and started shouting towards his yard.
"Juan'er, why don't we grow some vegetables so that we can eat them at home in the future."
How many Chinese people don’t have a passion for farming?
Wang Juan was called by her husband, and she replied shyly. "Oh."
Deputy Director Sun then looked at Zheng Tiansen again and said, "Tiansen, do you have any seeds left? Give me some."
"I don't know about this. You have to ask my wife. My wife takes care of the household affairs." As he said this, he looked at Linglong.
Now everyone knows who is the boss in their family.
Linglong had been listening and smiled. "After we finish planting, there should be some left over. We'll give the rest to you guys to plant."
"Thank you, Linglong Zhi." Deputy Director Sun said enthusiastically.
"You're welcome, of course. We're all neighbors."
It is said that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, and this is true in many places.
In the next yard, Wang Juan was also listening to the conversation here, and now her opinion of Linglong had changed a little.
Congcong was digging in the soil, and Deputy Director Sun started to tease him after he finished speaking.
Zheng Tiansen and Political Commissar Yu were not idle, they were both helping their wives with work.
Dig a hole, place the seeds, fill it with soil, and water it.
The vegetable garden is not very big, but after finishing all the work, Linglong was sweating.
Looking around the yard, she muttered, "Looks like we'll have to build another bathing area."
When Zheng Tiansen heard his wife's words, he immediately replied, "Then build it."
Over there, Zhao Aihong and his wife were almost done with their work.
Linglong Yinuo handed all the remaining cabbage seeds to Deputy Director Sun.
"We will plant it tomorrow." Deputy Director Sun happily took the vegetable seeds home.
Linglong and the others went into the house, drank some water and rested for a while, then turned on the radio to listen.
They didn't sell small items like the radio when they moved.
Linglong saw that there was a hole in Congcong's pants, so she found needle and thread and started to mend it.
As she made up for it, she said, "I don't know if Xiao Jiang will come to see us."
"What are you going to do if Xiao Jiang doesn't come to talk?" Zheng Tiansen asked.
"Then just wait a little longer. I'm not in a hurry." She smiled indifferently.
If she doesn't have a suitable and trustworthy partner, she's not in a hurry to do business.
After all, she has to go to school and take care of the family, so she doesn't have enough energy.
Although their family conditions are not particularly good, they live much better than many ordinary families.
If there is an opportunity to make money, she will not miss it, but if the timing is not right, she will not force it.
After Congcong fell asleep, the couple talked about other things.
"School is starting this fall, and Congcong will also go to kindergarten. By the way, is there a kindergarten near our army?" Linglong asked.
"I haven't asked that yet. I'll ask it tomorrow."
"Okay, we still have to take care of Congcong's schooling. If there's no school near the military base, we'll have to send him back to the city."
"Yeah, I remember that."
The next day, Zheng Tiansen went to work and Linglong was watering the vegetables in the yard when a military truck stopped outside their yard.
She quickly put down the tools in her hands and walked out. Next door, Zhao Aihong and Wang Juan heard the noise and came out to see what was happening.
Xiao Li jumped off the car and worked with two other soldiers to lift a refrigerator off the car, and then put down a bicycle.
"Sister, where do I put all the things?" Xiao Li asked.
"Put the bicycle in the yard and bring the refrigerator into the house."
Seeing the bicycle and the refrigerator, Zhao Aihong couldn't help but walk over.
She is now quite familiar with Linglong and is not angry.
"Linglong, you bought a refrigerator."
"Yes, sister-in-law."
The refrigerator was carried into the house, the cardboard box was opened, and the real thing inside was revealed.
Linglong had already seen the appearance of her own refrigerator, and Zhao Aihong looked at it curiously.
After plugging in the power, Linglong wiped the inside with a rag and started putting things in.
"Linglong, do you think this refrigerator is useful?"
"A refrigerator is quite convenient. We bought one when I was with the army elsewhere. But it became inconvenient when we moved, so we sold it to our family for a cheaper price."
"It's not that noticeable in the winter, but it's really useful in the summer. It's very convenient for storing meat and vegetables."
In fact, Zhao Aihong had heard about the benefits of refrigerators before, but she had never observed and experienced them up close. Now that Linglong said this, she was even more excited.
"How much is your refrigerator?"
Linglong gave a number.
Zhao Aihong was not too shocked when she heard this. After all, it was a big guy, and she was mentally prepared.
However, she couldn't make up her mind to spend so much money on such a big item at once, so she decided to take a closer look at Linglong Home Furnishings' user experience.
They have three children. The eldest is already working and sends money home every month. The second is in high school and the third is in junior high school. Her husband also gives her a lot of allowance, so they still have some savings.
It's just that we were used to being frugal in the past, and apart from the radio, there were no other large electrical appliances at home.
Now that there is a refrigerator at home, Linglong dares to buy more things.
The weather was still hot, so she thought about making some popsicles.
However, she didn't have the tools to make popsicles at home, so she just used a bowl.
As for her son's kindergarten, she also asked Zhao Aihong about it.
"We have kindergarten in our army, so we don't have to go back to the city."
"That's great." She didn't expect Congcong to learn much in kindergarten, and the main thing was to let her son spend more time with people of his age.
Although she can teach Congcong things, she cannot replace other children in playing with Congcong.
You should do the right thing at the right age.
When Zheng Tiansen came back, he also brought back the news he had found out.
The army does have kindergartens, and children of soldiers can attend for free. They just have to pay a small amount every month to cover the children's food expenses.
"Then let's enroll Congcong first, and then send him to school when school starts."
"good."
Next door, Wang Juan originally wanted to come over to check Linglong's refrigerator, but because she had misunderstood Linglong before, she didn't feel comfortable coming over.
But after her husband came home, she still mentioned that Linglong's family had bought a refrigerator and a bicycle.
"Want to buy it?" asked Deputy Director Sun.
"No, I just mentioned it."
"Isn't the bicycle useful to us right now? If that refrigerator is useful, we can buy it. Why don't you go to the neighboring house and ask?"
"Oh, then I'll ask tomorrow."
Deputy Director Sun hadn't noticed his wife's slight discomfort.
The next day, when Wang Juan took the initiative to come to Linglong, Linglong was also very enthusiastic towards her and never thought that Wang Juan had misunderstood her before.
"Sister-in-law, come in quickly."
