After Wang Fugui arrived at the military family quarters, he would go to the supply and marketing cooperative early every morning to queue up or go to nearby villages to exchange supplies for the hundred-day banquets for his three precious grandsons and granddaughters.
On the day of the hundred-day banquet, the three little babies all wore bright red new clothes, looking like the lucky dolls in New Year pictures.
The three lucky dolls were placed directly in the small bed and displayed in the yard. Since the bloody incident in Company Commander Ma's family, this was considered a rare happy event in the family area, so quite a few people came to Wen Nuan's home today.
Sister Ma, the women's director, came, and several families who had previously asked Wen Nuan for diapers and had brought back good news also came. The families living halfway up the mountain, including Wang Xiangyu's good sister who had just moved up, all came.
However, these families were considerate and just came to visit. They didn't stay for dinner, but they still left some things. This family left a handful of vegetables, and that family left a few eggs. The things were not much, but Wen Nuan asked Wang Xiaomei to record them all down, as they would have to be returned later.
At noon, Wang Jianshe and Lei Hu brought back a few young soldiers. The leaders also knew that today was the 100-day banquet for the triplets in the family area, so they gave Wang Jianshe and his friends two hours off at noon. As a result, several young soldiers insisted on coming to see the triplets, and Wang Jianshe had to agree.
These little soldiers knew how to interact with others, and each of them brought something, mostly snacks and candies. Wen Nuan did not refuse and accepted them all.
Yang Chunhua, Wang Fugui and Wang Xiangyu were busy in the kitchen. Fortunately, Wang Fugui bought a lot of things for the house after he came these few days, so even if a few more people came, there was enough food at home.
Because we had training in the afternoon, we didn't prepare any wine for lunch. After we ate, we helped clean up and left.
However, before Lei Hu left, he said that he wanted to have a good drink in the evening.
So in the evening, Yang Chunhua set up another table. This time, there were only Lei Hu's couple, Wang Xiangyu's family of three, and Wang Wenya's family of three. The men had a great time drinking.
On the third day after the 100-day banquet, Yang Chunhua and Wang Fugui were leaving, and Wang Xiaomei stayed to help Wen Nuan take care of the children.
Yang Chunhua looked at the three precious children sleeping on the kang reluctantly, tears streaming down her face. "My dear babies, grandma is leaving. I really can't bear to leave you!"
Wen Nuan also looked at Yang Chunhua with tears in her eyes. She really didn't want to see her mother-in-law go. She had been living with her mother-in-law for more than half a year and they had become like real mother and daughter. She was very grateful for her mother-in-law's care during this period, so she was reluctant to let her go.
"Xiao Nuan, after mom is gone, you have to take care of the children by yourself. Fortunately, our three little darlings are very obedient and worry-free. With my little sister to help you, you can handle it. From now on, except for the children's matters, just let my little sister do everything else. When Jianshe is at home, let him do it. You just need to take good care of our three darlings, okay?"
"Mom, I understand. When you go back, you and my dad should also take care of your health. You have to take good care of yourselves. My younger sister and I are not around you, so you must pay more attention to yourselves. Don't work too hard and don't always think about earning work points. You and my dad are old, so you have to earn work points within your ability. Do you understand, mom?"
"Hey, I know, mom knows. Your dad and I will definitely pay attention to it. We will take good care of ourselves and come to see our eldest grandson in the future!"
"My dear grandma, grandma is gone..."
Yang Chunhua and Wang Fugui both had tears in their eyes and were reluctant to leave. Wen Nuan and Wang Xiaomei also had red eyes. Only the three little babies who ate and slept alternately did not know the sadness of parting.
After Yang Chunhua left, Wen Nuan was unable to adapt for several days. Sometimes she would call her mother directly, but after she finished calling her mother, she would realize that she was gone.
In the blink of an eye, another month passed and summer came. Wang Jianshe and Lei Hu went out on a mission again.
Lin Yiman moved directly to Wen Nuan's home. Lei Hu was worried about her being pregnant alone.
Ever since Wang Xiangyu's good sister and her family moved up, the hillside has become much more lively. She has two children, a boy and a girl, both of whom are very naughty. When Hu Zi and Peng Peng are added to the family, they make even more noise.
And Wen Nuan’s home is a must-visit attraction every day. Every evening, after returning from school, the three children must go to Wen Nuan’s home to see their triplets.
The triplets are now four months old and can already roll over. Wen Nuan had specially asked Wang Jianshe to go to a nearby village to customize a large two-meter by two-meter mat, wrapped it with rags, and placed it in the yard for the triplets to lie on it.
That night, the triplets ate and drank their fill, played with Wen Nuan and the others for a while, and then fell asleep.
After the children fell asleep, Wen Nuan fell asleep too.
However, in the middle of the night, Wen Nuan suddenly felt a palpitation in her heart and woke up suddenly.
When Wen Nuan woke up, she felt panic in her heart, as if something was going to happen. However, she thought and thought but couldn't figure out what it was. Just then, the eldest son Zhuangzhuang started to hum. Wen Nuan touched him and found that he had urinated. She changed his diaper and fed him a few more mouthfuls of milk, and Zhuangzhuang fell asleep again.
Because she had something on her mind, Wen Nuan didn't sleep well in the second half of the night, so when she woke up in the morning, there was a dark spot under her eyes. Wang Xiaomei and Lin Yiman were very worried.
"Sister-in-law, did the little ones bother you last night? Why didn't you call me?" Wang Xiaomei said anxiously.
"The children were very well behaved last night. It has nothing to do with them. I just had a nightmare and didn't sleep well." Wen Nuan had a headache because she didn't sleep well. She gently pinched the corner of her forehead.
"Sister-in-law, I'll watch the three children playing in the yard for a while, you can go back to your room and catch up on some sleep!"
"Yes, Xiao Nuan, you look so bad. My sister and I will take care of the child for a while. You can go back and get some sleep!"
"Okay, if there's anything, just call me anytime!"
After leaving the children in the yard, Wen Nuan went back to the house to catch up on her sleep.
The day was very uneventful and nothing happened until the evening. Only then did Wen Nuan put her mind at ease after having been worried for the entire day.
What she didn't know was that in a mountain thousands of miles away, soldiers who had just completed their mission were carrying their injured comrades to the hospital. Among them was a man covered in blood lying on a stretcher and receiving first aid.
Three more days passed.
"Yiman, are Jianshe and Leizi coming back soon?"
"That should be the case. They said this mission would take a month. It's already been over a month. They should be back soon!"
Wen Nuan looked at the door nervously. She felt anxious from time to time these days. The closer it got to the time when the man should come back, the more anxious she became. However, the man still didn't come back today.
