Chapter 181
"Yes, it looks like a grandmother. Auntie, go and have a look."
Guizhi liked Tang Wan very much, so when she heard the man asking the security guard, she trotted in to inform her.
Upon hearing this, Tang Wan said goodbye to everyone and walked quickly towards the gate of the compound.
Tang Wan was extremely surprised when she saw Wang Dani's familiar figure from a distance.
"Mom, why are you here?"
She was really a little surprised. After all, her hometown was so far away from the army. Wang Dani had rarely left the hospital in her life, but she actually found the army.
"The third one's family."
Wang Dani excitedly waved to Tang Wan and said to the guard, "This is my daughter-in-law."
Tang Wan went forward and explained to the security guard, and Wang Dani supported Tang Wan very naturally.
"Isn't it just over five months? Why is your belly so big?"
She was quite worried, so Tang Wan took her arm and wanted to help carry Wang Dani's huge package.
Wang Dani refused, "You are so pregnant, I can do it myself."
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law walked into the yard. Tang Wan was a little confused, "Mom, why did you come to the army by yourself? Let the eldest brother and the second brother come to see you off."
"Although I have never been far away from home, I have the ability to ask questions."
Wang Dani smiled cheerfully, "The New Year is coming soon, Huaijing hasn't come back yet, I'm worried about you.
Luckily, the team was not busy during the Chinese New Year, so I just wrote a letter of introduction and came here directly. ”
How could Wang Dani feel at ease knowing that her daughter-in-law was pregnant and spending the New Year alone here?
Hearing this, Tang Wan's eyes were red, "Mom, thank you."
Wang Dani was in charge of all the big and small things at home. She left her home and came all the way here for her.
Tang Wan was touched. This mother-in-law seemed to be quite nice.
"What are you thanking me for? We are all family."
Wang Dani patted Tang Wan's hand gently, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law looked harmonious and happy.
When passing by the tube building, Tang Wan called up, "Huai Li, look who's here?"
As soon as Tang Wan left, everyone dispersed, so when Lu Huaili stuck her head out from the upstairs and saw Wang Dani, she almost screamed.
"Mom, why are you here?!"
Lu Huaili was shocked that her mother, a rural woman who had never left home, had run so far.
Her call of "Mom" was so deafening that people nearby looked over curiously.
Everyone knows that Lu Huaijing and Lu Huaili are siblings. Is this Vice Colonel Lu’s biological mother?
Everyone looked at Wang Dani quietly. Wang Dani was a cheerful person and didn't care about what these people thought at all.
She yelled, "Don't run down by yourself, hold Niuniu with you."
"Oh, okay."
Lu Huaili ran a few steps and then realized that she had forgotten her daughter. She hurried back to the house, picked up Niuniu, locked the door, and walked towards Tang Wan's house.
When she arrived, Tang Wan had already brought Wang Dani back to their courtyard.
Zhang Hongyan next door and Xu Cuiying opposite looked over here curiously.
Tang Wan introduced them with a smile, "This is mother-in-law, mother, and this is sister Hongyan and sister Cuiying from next door."
She didn't explain in detail, but Wang Dani was very outgoing and took out some dried sweet potatoes from a big bag.
"The third daughter-in-law is young, thank you for taking care of her. This is the dried sweet potato I brought from my hometown. It's not worth much. Come and try it."
"Thank you, ma'am."
Zhang Hongyan took the dried sweet potatoes enthusiastically and said, "Actually, we didn't do anything to help the elder sister.
Although she is young, she is very hardworking. You can see this from the vegetables grown in the family plot. "
She was used to speaking up for Tang Wan, and Xu Cuiying smiled and said, "We are all neighbors, and we should help each other."
She was quite shameless. It was obvious that Tang Wan often helped her, but Zhang Hongyan did not expose her.
“This vegetable looks really good.”
Wang Dani glanced at the onions, ginger, garlic and radishes in her private plot with satisfaction.
The third son’s wife looks delicate and gentle, but unexpectedly she is also good at housework.
"That's right, the elder sister is very skillful."
Zhang Hongyan said exaggeratedly: "I think the sweater that Vice Commander Lu is wearing is very well woven."
"I know. The third daughter-in-law also knitted it for me."
Wang Dani's most satisfied daughter-in-law is Tang Wan. The eldest daughter-in-law is talkative and likes to take advantage of others, while the second daughter-in-law is cold and looks down on farmers.
Only Tang Wan is different.
"I know that my eldest sister is filial and obedient."
Zhang Hongyan awkwardly blocked Xu Cuiying's gaze and said, "Auntie, you must be tired after taking the train.
Come inside and have a rest. We can chat again when we have time."
"good."
Wang Dani carried a big bag and went into the yard with Tang Wan, and saw that the yard was tidy.
Wang Dani couldn't help but feel sorry for Tang Wan, "Old Third Wife, I know you are hardworking.
But it’s inconvenient for you to do anything now that you’re pregnant, you can wait for the third child to come back and let him do these things.”
"mother."
Tang Wan held her waist and lit the coal stove, and the two sat opposite each other, "Lu Huaijing's work is special.
His mission might take several months, and I can’t wait for him to come back for everything.”
She did almost everything she could on her own.
Hearing this, Wang Dani held Tang Wan's hand and said apologetically, "Old Third's family, I'm sorry for putting you through this."
"Mom, I'm not wronged."
Tang Wan smiled softly, "We were just discussing that men are out there making contributions.
As military wives, we should support them in their work. Is everything okay at home?"
Although she was not very familiar with the Lu family, they were Lu Huaijing's family after all, so Tang Wan was just asking politely.
"Everything is fine."
Wang Dani smiled and said, "There are only so many things to do at home in winter, so I thought I might as well come over to keep you company.
At least I can spend a good New Year with you, otherwise you will spend the New Year alone and it will be lonely."
"Mom, don't I still have you?"
Lu Huaili walked in speechlessly holding Niu Niu. It was true that this mother only had her daughter-in-law in her eyes.
"You have to take care of Niuniu, what can I do to help?"
What Wang Dani didn't say was that Lili also has her own family, so how could she always support her parents' family?
As they were talking, the water that Tang Wan had boiled became hot. She made two cups of brown sugar water and pushed them in front of them.
"It's cold, mother, drink some water to warm yourself up first,"
"good."
Wang Dani held the water and drank it in small sips. Only after she finished drinking did she have time to look around their small courtyard.
She walked back and forth several times, and became more and more satisfied the more she looked.
There was firewood prepared long ago placed under the eaves in the yard, which should be enough to last the entire winter.
There were also some bacon and sausage hanging in the kitchen, not much, but enough to eat.
Everything at home is in order and he knows how to manage his daily life.
She rolled up her sleeves and said, "From the third brother's house, I brought a lot of things from home, so I'll sort them out first."
Tang Wan stared in amazement as Wang Dani took out a large bottle from the big bag.
There was a lot of rice in it, and the middle was full of eggs.
If you put it this way, the eggs won't rot, which is really thoughtful.
"Mom, you brought eggs with you when it's so far away?"
Tang Wan really admires Wang Dani, but these days are different from later times, and buying eggs is not that easy.
