Chapter 319
"Lu Huaijing, are you sick?"
Tang Wan glared at him speechlessly and quickly went back to the house.
She missed her children very much as she hadn't looked after them for a day and a night, so she simply went into the house and spent some time with them.
The two babies, who were almost half a year old, giggled and made Tang Wan very happy.
Until Lu Huaijing came into the room, "Wife, I have talked to Old Cheng about the matter of the child in the Cheng family.
You were not at home yesterday, and I heard the couple having a quarrel.
We have done our best in this matter. No matter what they decide, we should not say anything more."
Tang Wan didn’t tell anyone at home yesterday, so I didn’t know such a thing happened in the compound.
No wonder Xu Cuiying looked at her with an unfriendly look.
She sighed, "Every family has its own problems, since her parents don't care.
I can’t change anything, I hope Lao Cheng can be more resolute.”
That child is older than her own child, and his eyes are not as bright as Xiaoheng and Yaoer's.
Tang Wan didn’t know much to say, she just felt sorry for the child.
"I know you love your child."
Lu Huaijing also expressed his understanding, "I will bring this up with Lao Cheng if there is a chance."
"No, I've said this many times, we've been honest enough!"
Xu Cuiying refused to eat or drink, and Tang Wan had no choice but to get up to wash up. She saw Wang Dani washing dishes with cold water in the kitchen.
"Mom, the weather is so cold, please use hot water to wash the dishes."
Tang Wan saw that Wang Dani's fingers were frozen red and she thought that old people were just thrifty.
Sure enough, Wang Dani said, "There's no fire, so I want to save some firewood."
She usually put water in the pot at all times. After cooking, the stove was hot and she could keep the water warm for use at any time.
Today, she didn't have enough time, so she just used cold water.
"Use hot water next time. It's not worth it to mess with it."
Tang Wan sighed and boiled some hot water for washing, which meant that Wang Dani had just been saving for nothing.
While she was busy, Wang Dani whispered, "Wanwan, are you guys having a holiday during the New Year?"
"There shouldn't be many days off. What's wrong, Mom?"
Tang Wan was a little confused for a moment. She was a barefoot doctor, and she had to go to the mountains to report for work even if she had nothing to do at the end of the year.
It’s not too busy, but she has to divide her time between collecting herbs, otherwise the herbs will be useless.
"Chinese New Year is coming soon. I have been here for more than a year. I want to go home and visit you."
Wang Dani did miss her children at home, and Tang Wan understood.
"I will be able to save some time at the end of the year and take a holiday. I will ask Huai Jing to buy you a ticket later. It's also okay for you to go home for the New Year."
Tang Wan thought that if Wang Dani returned to her hometown, she would take the children to Huzhuang Brigade during the day.
Anyway, there is space, and the children can use it when they make noise.
And if Lu Huaijing was not busy, they could even stay in Huzhuang Brigade to celebrate the New Year.
Anyway, he is a big man and walks fast. If he walks completely on the mountain road, he can climb up in 20 minutes.
Wang Dani heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this. "Okay, I'll discuss this with Huai Jing."
Seeing her so happy, Tang Wan was also happy, but Wang Dani was leaving, so Tang Wan thought she had to prepare New Year's goods early.
We have to ask Wang Dani to bring some back.
Even though there were several troublesome people at home, she just treated the things as if they were for Wang Dani.
After all, she had worked hard to raise the child for such a long time.
By the time Wang Dani went to discuss with Lu Huaijing, the water had just been boiled and Tang Wan carried the water to the small compartment.
After washing up in the space, she did not rush out, but went to the space supermarket and picked out 50 kilograms of good pork belly.
It's the end of the year, I need to make some bacon and bacon, I'll find a chance to make them.
When Tang Wan returned to her room, Lu Huaijing looked a little strange, "Did you promise to go back with your mother?"
"Um."
Tang Wan wiped her hair while saying, "You are not my only child.
She has been here for so long, it is normal for her to miss home.”
"I'm afraid she'll go back and tire you out."
Lu Huaijing understood Tang Wan's thoughts, but the children were so young and he was not at home most of the time, so it would be Tang Wan who would be tired.
"Xiaoheng and Yaoer don't drink milk at night now, I can handle it."
Tang Wan smiled and said, "The house the brigade allocated to me is pretty good, after my mother goes back.
I will live there with the kids, and you can go there at night."
"This……"
Lu Huaijing was in a dilemma. "We can't leave the base easily, otherwise we won't be able to find anyone for emergency missions."
Tang Wan then realized that her thoughts were a bit simplistic. She was stunned for a moment and said:
"Then I'll take the kids back and forth every day."
"We also have to climb mountains. It's very tiring to take care of two children."
Lu Huaijing looked at Tang Wan's petite figure and suddenly felt extremely distressed.
Seeing him being so persistent, Tang Wan said helplessly, "Who knows, I might be on vacation by then.
I think it depends on the situation. If it doesn’t work, I’ll ask Sister Hongyan to help me. I can go early and come back early every day.”
She also coaxed Lu Huaijing, and when the day really came, she left the children alone on the road.
We can take him out after arriving at Huzhuang Brigade, it won’t affect anything.
"Okay then, I'll buy a ticket for Mom."
Lu Huaijing was embarrassed to say the hidden worry in his heart. Given his sister-in-law's personality, what if she left his mother at home?
By then it will be his wife who will be tired.
He had to think of a way to deal with it in advance.
Perhaps because he had something on his mind, Lu Huaijing was not very careful in paying the public rations, but Tang Wan didn't mind.
She was just tired.
The next day, as soon as Lu Huaijing went out, Tang Wan had breakfast and ran to Huzhuang Brigade.
This time she did not take the long route led by Captain Hu, but started climbing directly from the back mountain behind their compound.
This road is closer, but not as easy to walk on. However, Tang Wan doesn't mind. She is dressed very neatly and it doesn't hinder her from climbing the mountain.
Along the way, she was not in a hurry. There were few people coming and going in the mountains, and no one knew about herbs, so Tang Wan picked a lot.
Because we were picking herbs, it was almost nine o'clock when we arrived at Huzhuang Brigade.
Hu Jianniang, who was picking up feces, said in a gloomy tone: "Cultivated people are different.
We started work at seven o'clock, but some people didn't arrive until almost ten o'clock. It's not unfair to take this salary!"
In the entire team, she is the one who dislikes Tang Wan the most. Even when she is picking up feces, it does not prevent her from confronting Tang Wan.
The people who were originally busy didn't notice Tang Wan, but now they looked over after being told by Hu Jianniang.
When I thought about how hard I worked, I realized that Tang Wan came so late.
Although the captain told them not to offend Tang Wan, they couldn't help feeling dissatisfied.
Tang Wan took off the backpack on her back and said, "A good cook cannot cook without rice.
There are no herbs in this mountain. If I don’t pick some, what will you use?”
Aunt Hu just happened to appear, and when she heard what Tang Wan said, she immediately glared at Hu Jianniang fiercely.
"Doctor Xiao Tang is right. Look at this full basket. It must have taken a lot of time, right?
Comrade Xiao Tang, thank you for your hard work. Do you want me to help you?"
"Thank you Auntie Hu for your concern. It only took two or three hours."
Tang Wan's casual words made Hu Jianniang blush. She thought that the other person was lazy, but it turned out that he was more diligent than her!
