Several aunts stood in front of them suspiciously: "The person who just went in, is he the one that Captain Wen hired to look after the baby?"
The wooden head shook his head like a rattle: "No, no, that person just now was Captain Wen's mother, and this one is Captain Wen's brother-in-law."
A single stone caused a thousand waves: "Oh my, the flood has really washed away the Dragon King Temple, and family members don't recognize each other anymore!
Look, we have misunderstood each other, haven't we?"
The short-haired aunt's voice was extremely gentle, and she wished she could hold Tuantuan and Yuanyuan in her arms and give them a good kiss!
When he saw clearly that the little girl was being protected by two people, his eyes lit up.
An aunt standing at the end said sourly: "Captain Wen's family is good-looking enough, but I didn't expect his brother-in-law to be even more outstanding!
Look at this baby, it's different from others!"
"Who says it's not true? Look at the one in our family, he looks like a coal miner when he smiles.
It's nothing like the delicate and exquisite ones others have, how cute! "
Although several people were complaining about their own family, they could not hide the pride in their eyes.
Mu Tou scratched his head and smiled at them: "Ladies, I'll take them over first!"
Looking at their departing backs, the aunts' eyes rolled around: "Let's go and take a look!
I heard that Captain Wen’s mother is a highly educated person, and she deals with foreigners!
I’ve never seen anything like this before here!”
A group of people rushed to Wen Shize's house in a hurry.
Wen's mother, who had arrived at Wen Shize's home earlier than them, saw the older child coaxing the younger child. She was so anxious that she was sweating profusely and she couldn't help but burst into tears.
Wen Ningzhou had seen his grandmother before, and when he heard the noise, he quickly turned his head.
I got up from the bed excitedly and threw myself into my grandmother's arms: "Grandma, why are you here?"
Mother Wen quickly wiped away her tears, forced a smile, and said, "Isn't this our break time? I wanted to come and see you guys!
Didn’t you say to ask the people next door to help look after your sister?
Why are you mixing the milk powder? "
The man with a crew cut standing at the back also had a rather unhappy expression on his face.
Wen Ningzhou grinned, revealing his white teeth: "Grandma, Aunt Li has gone home to cook. She usually not only has to take care of us, but also her three kids!
I have to cook for both of us, and I am a little overwhelmed, so I help out."
His words made Mother Wen feel heartbroken.
Wen Ningzhou is the same age as Pingping, only a few months older than Pingping. Now, he is just four years old.
But she has to take care of a baby. How can a grandmother not feel uncomfortable?
Mother Wen could no longer control her tears, and they flowed down like broken beads.
"Good boy, good boy, you are really grandma's good grandson and a good brother!"
Wen Ningzhou took his mother's hand and led her to the small wooden bed beside the bed: "Look at your sister, Dad said she looks exactly like mom, but I think your sister looks like me, look at this high nose and big eyes!
She will definitely be very beautiful in the future!"
The child spoke in a childish voice with pride in his eyes, which made the people following behind him grin.
Mrs. Li next door was cooking at home. When she suddenly saw so many people rushing over here, she was shocked and quickly took off her apron and walked out of the house.
The short-haired woman, who was usually on good terms with her, waved at her quickly: "Captain Wen's mother is here, and his brother-in-law is here too."
Sister Li's heart skipped a beat. She was afraid that others would think she didn't take good care of the child, so she quickly twisted her body and squeezed in.
As soon as he entered the door, he smiled and said to Mother Wen: "Hey, Auntie, why are you here?"
Sister Li doesn't like to dress up, and she is worried sick about her three sons at home. The three sons are not obedient and make the family compound a mess.
So he looks very old, and is actually ten years younger than Wen's mother.
Besides, she and Ningxia usually call each other sisters, so naturally she should call Mother Wen "Auntie".
But upon closer inspection, Wen's mother was well-maintained and looked younger than her, which made Sister Li a little embarrassed.
Mother Wen also knows that it is not easy for every family now, and she has no reason to blame others.
She stood up from the bed, smiled and took Sister Li's hand, patted her and said softly: "Let's talk about our own affairs. I should be more than ten years older than you, so you can just call me elder sister!
I am really sorry to bother you during this period. The baby is too small and needs to eat and drink, which is really annoying. "
Without looking closely, she could see the dark circles under Sister Li's eyes.
Sister Li only came to join the army in recent years. She had been taking care of her parents-in-law in the countryside before.
She joined the army after her parents-in-law passed away. To be honest, she has never dealt with people like Wen's mother.
She looked reserved, her palms sweating: "We are all neighbors, it's only natural for us to help each other.
When Mr. Li is not at home, Captain Wen always helps out. If the children have a headache or fever, Doctor Ning will help them.
They are in a special situation right now, so it’s nothing for me to lend a hand.”
Looking at this simple woman, Mother Wen felt a little relieved.
She stood up straight and said to the aunts standing at the door: "I came here in a hurry this time and didn't bring any gifts for you. Let me ask someone to buy some meat from the supply and marketing cooperative later, and we will eat here tonight.
It is also to thank you for taking care of my son and daughter-in-law over the years."
These words made some people blush and some laughed heartily.
The short-haired auntie came forward and said, "Hey, what are you talking about, big sister?
Just like what Sister Li said, everyone has difficulties sometimes, you help, I help, and we can get through this difficulty!
Besides, I treat all the children in this army as my own children, so there is no need to say these polite words. "
Another woman with twin ponytails also said with a smile: "But this is a kind gesture from the eldest sister of the Wen family. I happen to have a few chickens raised there. I'll kill one and feed everyone!"
For a moment, there was a commotion in the hut: "I still have dried beans!"
"I also have some smoked fish I brought from my hometown. We can just put some together for a table, so we don't have to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy more.
The supply and marketing cooperative is not close to us!"
Seeing how easy it was for these people to get along with, Mother Wen nodded with satisfaction.
When others show you kindness, you can't just climb up the ladder without considering the relationship.
She frowned and thought about what was most needed here, and asked her son-in-law to help buy some.
Lu Zhiye saw what his mother-in-law was thinking at a glance. When no one was paying attention, he searched in the space and stuffed the things at the bottom of the backpack.
