Chapter 59

Last night, Tang Wan and Lu Huaijing agreed not to invite family members, so these warriors did not bring their families either.

It was somewhat strange that Qiu Dazao showed up with his two grandsons at this moment.

Everyone looked a little awkward. Lu Huaijing and Tang Wan looked at each other but said nothing.

This matter had to be left to Captain Lu to handle. He also wanted to save face, so in front of his soldiers, he said with a stern face:

"Mom, Xia Qing has cooked at home, please take the children home to eat first."

"Why go back? Xia Qing is working overtime at the hospital and hasn't come back yet. We can just stay here and have a quick bite."

Qiu Dazao seemed to be saying this with some reluctance. She glanced at the children and Xu Heping immediately said:

"Dad, I'm hungry."

"Dad, can you please come in and eat?"

Xu Weimin looked up at Captain Xu. Captain Xu had never felt so embarrassed before.

It was as if he didn't give money to the family and the children were hungry.

"What are you hungry for? Get out of here!"

"The children are still young, why are you so fierce?"

Qiu Dazao didn't expect his son to get so angry, and said in a sarcastic tone.

"We are all from the same family compound, what's wrong with the children eating a little?

Could it be that they invite you to dinner just to please you, so we can't eat?"

The words were a bit harsh, and everyone present felt a little embarrassed.

If it weren't for the fact that this was Captain Xu's mother, everyone would have been unable to resist making a few complaints.

Lu Huaijing and Tang Wan looked unhappy. She thought, it was a pity that Captain Lu had such a trouble-making mother.

Veins popped up on Captain Xu's forehead. He glanced at Lu Huaijing apologetically and said through his teeth:

"I suddenly remembered that I have some things to take care of at home. Huaijing, you guys go ahead and eat. I won't stay here to eat."

"Xu Dashu, what are you doing?"

Qiu Dazao's eyes widened in anger. She had inquired about it and found out that her son was the highest-ranking official among this group of people.

She is a relative of their leader, what's wrong with eating something?

Just when Captain Xu couldn't help but lose his temper, a petite figure walked in.

It was Xia Qing, and she was holding Captain Xu’s eldest daughter, Xu Qiao.

"Old Xu, let me take care of the family affairs. You can just stay here and spend time with your brothers."

After saying this, her sharp eyes fell on the arrogant Qiu Dazao.

"Mom, do you want others to think that Old Xu can't support us?"

She walked a few steps to Qiu Dazao and said in a low voice:

"If you continue to go crazy in the compound and force Old Xu to retire, our family will get out of the compound together!"

Her appearance was a slap in Qiu Dazao's face. The overtime work in the hospital was obviously an excuse for her to get a free meal.

"What are you talking about?!"

Qiu Dazao is so powerful only because he relies on his son being the head of the group.

But Xia Qing's words made her feel uneasy, and she looked at her son's dark face.

Qiu Dazao became even more panicked. She opened her mouth but didn't know what to say.

"Peace and Defence, I have stewed some pork ribs at home, come back with me."

Xia Qing looked at the two children with a smile. Before the two children could say anything, Qiu Dazao dragged them out.

"It's really inconvenient for us to be here with so many big guys having dinner."

She ran very fast, fearing that Captain Xu would really get angry, leaving Xia Qing looking at everyone apologetically.

"Sorry to bother you. Please enjoy your meal."

She led Xu Qiao out of the hospital as well. It was obvious that Xia Qing was a well-educated girl.

Although he is a bit powerful, his values ​​are fine.

Tang Wan breathed a sigh of relief. It would be better if they could solve the problem themselves. If they stepped forward, it might affect Lu Huaijing.

She smiled and said, "Huai Jing, take everyone to the main room first. I have another bowl of soup. Bring it over right away."

"good."

Lu Huaijing also calmed down and invited everyone to go into the main hall. The laughter of several younger warriors eased the awkward atmosphere.

When Tang Wan entered the kitchen, she saw Tang Zhou had obediently scooped out a large bowl of soup.

There are radishes and pork bones inside, which are so delicious that you will drool.

"I'll take it out first."

Tang Wan came out carrying a large basin of bone soup. There were not enough tables, chairs and benches at home, except for Lu Huaijing and Captain Xu and a few others.

Many people were standing around the table, and Tang Wan felt a little embarrassed.

“Haven’t had time to make some stools yet.”

"It's okay, sister-in-law. We can just stand and eat. We used to eat while standing with our bowls in our hometown."

"Yes, yes, there are so many of us, so many stools are needed. You don't usually use them."

"Thank you for your hard work, sister-in-law. This dish looks delicious."

“…”

Captain Xu had a clear look in his eyes. He pointed to the spot next to Lu Huaijing and said:

"Sister-in-law, these brats are used to their own ways. Don't get used to them. Sit down and eat together."

"Thank you, Captain Xu. Please eat. I left some food in the kitchen so as not to disturb you brothers from chatting."

Tang Wan was speaking from the heart. They were all young men and it was awkward for her, a lesbian, to be with them.

Lu Huaijing took the soup bowl from Tang Wan and did not force her. He just said to Captain Xu:

"There are too many people and she is timid."

"That's fine. Thank you for your hard work, sister-in-law."

Captain Xu also immediately thought of Lu Huaijing. After all, no one brought their family with them, and it would be inconvenient for Tang Wan, a female comrade, to squeeze in with everyone else.

With Lu Huaijing entertaining them, Tang Wan returned to the kitchen with peace of mind. She left three big buns.

One for myself and two for Tang Zhou.

"Zhou Zhou, eat quickly."

“They all look so awesome.”

Tang Zhou looked through the crack in the door at the tall people outside, his eyes full of admiration and envy.

"Then you should eat well and grow taller. I support you in making contributions to the country."

Tang Wan took a bite of the meat bun and heard the screams outside.

"Oh my god, these buns made by sister-in-law are so delicious, so fragrant!"

"The other dishes are good too. You've hit the jackpot, Vice Captain Lu!"

"When I look for a wife in the future, I want to find someone like my sister-in-law, who is skillful with her hands, hehe..."

“…”

Tang Wan glanced at them sharply and saw that each of them grabbed a big bun and used chopsticks to quickly pick up the food in the bowl.

These people are well-trained soldiers. They are not chaotic when grabbing food. Some of them can finish such a big bun in just three or two bites.

Before Tang Wan finished her meal, everyone outside had already finished.

"Zhou Zhou, you eat first, I'll go over and take a look."

Tang Wan walked to the main room in shock, and found that there were so many hot pots of food, all of which had been eaten up.

Not even the nest of hair she added later was left.

Perhaps because her shocked expression was too obvious, Captain Xu gave a foolish laugh.

"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, my brother and sister-in-law. We usually train very hard and have big appetites."

Maybe it was because he was too soft-hearted, at this moment Captain Xu actually thought that Tang Wan was a pretty good person.

The meals looked rich, with not many vegetables or ingredients, but plenty of side dishes.

He is a man who knows how to live his life. No wonder Lu Huaijing is so determined.

"I understand."

Tang Wan looked at Lu Huaijing, "I was just wondering if I haven't prepared enough. Should I do something else?"
