Chapter 211 Lu Xiujin
The next day, almost everyone in the cadre compound knew about this matter.
No matter where you go in school, you can hear people talking about it.
Even the campus broadcast that Shen Zhiyou read at noon contained relevant content.
Wang Simin knew that her husband was a soldier, so after the broadcast, she asked her, “Youyou, is your husband okay? Did he participate?”
Shen Zhiyou nodded.
Niannian slept with her last night, but he didn't sleep well that night. "Yeah, he went too."
"Ah, did he say anything to you before he left? How long will it take for this to be over? It shouldn't be a problem."
Although everyone knows that her lover is a soldier.
But no one knew what rank he was. Shen Zhiyou didn't mention it specifically at school, and everyone thought her lover was just an ordinary soldier.
Tan Zhengqing curled her lips and said, "How could her lover know so much? He must be a group leader to know that."
Wang Simin rolled her eyes at her and walked to Shen Zhiyou: "It will be fine, don't worry too much."
This was not an ordinary matter, and even Tan Zhengqing stopped making sarcastic remarks.
In the past, Fu Chunmei was always able to find out the news and tell her in advance. But now, Shen Zhiyou spends most of her time at school. Apart from being familiar with the parents of her four children’s classmates, she doesn’t have any close friends who are military wives.
Fortunately, Manman was there to sleep with her at night, so Shen Zhiyou didn't have to lie alone in the double bed and have wild thoughts.
Shen Guowang also went out with Gu Ye and the others.
These weekends, Shen Zhiyou and Chen Cuijuan took them to the Children's Palace together.
Now they are all very familiar with the Children's Palace, just like their own school. When they first arrived at the Children's Palace, the little ones said something to Shen Zhiyou and then found their classrooms. Outside the classroom, they found their good classmates and walked into the classroom while chatting and laughing.
Shen Zhiyou and Chen Cuijuan were outside the piano room holding kettles.
Just like what the piano teacher said, Manman is talented in both music and dance.
It's only been half a year, and now Manman can play several songs.
Children's Day is coming soon. As a welfare institution, the Children's Palace will perform several programs at the provincial art performance.
Tuantuan Yuanyuan and Niannian are rehearsing a martial arts performance, and you can hear their shouts of “Hehehe” here.
Manman is now rehearsing a piano performance program with the young boy who played the piano that they met when they first arrived.
Nowadays, there are only a few children learning musical instruments, and even fewer who can play well, have a good image, and are not stage-shy.
In the end, Manman and the little boy were chosen to play the piano together.
No matter how talented he is, he is still young and has some difficulties.
But she was brought up well by her parents and brothers since she was a child. She is very patient and has a more stable mentality than many adults. She is also a little rebellious. The more difficult the situation is, the more determined she will be to overcome it.
The little girl had a stern face, sat upright, and played the piano very seriously.
Several times when I failed to keep up with my companions, the little boy next to me would slow down, and then slowly increase his speed after he caught up with me.
After practicing for almost an hour, Manman finally jumped off the chair and walked out with his companions.
"Mother."
Shen Zhiyou patted the chair beside her: "Manman, are you tired? Drink some water."
Manman shook her head and said, "It's not tiring, but it's hard, mom."
"It's okay, Manman is already very good now, just take your time."
As they were talking, Shen Zhiyou saw the little boy practicing piano with Manman and greeted him with a smile: "Xiu Jin, thank you for your hard work, taking care of Manman all the time."
"It's not hard, it's very smart."
Lu Xiu Jin is very polite. He is not much older than Tuan Tuan Yuan Yuan, but he is much more stable than Tuan Tuan Yuan Yuan.
Although she is still young and usually takes the bus by herself, she is fair-skinned, dressed neatly and appropriately, and it can be seen from her words and actions that her parents are quite particular people.
Maybe it’s because the three boys in the family are too lively, so Shen Zhiyou quite likes this calm little boy.
"You should sit down and rest for a while."
"Thank you, Auntie."
Manman was a little tired, and she hung on her mother, "Mom, when will Dad and uncle come back?"
“Soon.”
Shen Zhiyou touched her daughter's face and asked, "What's wrong? Do you miss your dad and uncle?"
"Um!"
Manman curled her eyes, stretched out her still chubby hand, and gestured: "Just think about it a little bit."
"My father and uncle are out on a mission. I know Manman missed them a little bit. I can't tell how happy I am."
Chen Cuijuan felt as if her heart was broken.
My son and son-in-law are both outside.
Although her daughter always said that nothing would happen, Chen Cuijuan heard others talk about how many people were injured today and what the situation was like today every day.
Every time Chen Cuijuan heard this number, her heart ached.
"Alas, I don't know when they will come back."
Lu Xiujin, who was standing by, heard what Shen Zhiyou and Chen Cuijuan were talking about and whispered, "It's almost done. It was finished yesterday. We'll finish the finishing work in the next two days. It's expected that the troops will be able to return one after another next week."
Shen Zhiyou and Chen Cuijuan were startled and turned to look at the little boy who still had a little baby fat on his face.
Lu Xiujin: ".......Auntie, is there any problem?"
Shen Zhiyou and Chen Cuijuan shook their heads at the same time. The mother and daughter shook their heads with the same amplitude and direction.
Influenced by his grandparents and parents since childhood, he had always been able to remain calm and at ease in any situation, but now he felt a little embarrassed for the first time.
Could it be that I said something wrong?
The first time Shen Zhiyou brought Manman to class, he learned about Manman’s father’s job from their conversation.
Later, Manman's uncle brought her here, which further confirmed this.
Now the soldiers and officers of the provincial military region are basically on that mission.
My uncle who came to visit our house this morning discussed this matter with my father. He was also there and learned the latest news.
Having practiced piano with Manman for such a long time, he has long regarded Manman as his own sister.
Now seeing Manman and her mother and grandmother so worried, he told them.
But, their reaction...
Until he got home, Lu Xiujin was still a little confused.
"dad."
Lu Xiujin opened the door and saw that the uncles who had come to the living room in the morning had not left yet.
When they saw Lu Xiujin coming back, they all stood up and said with a smile, “Mayor, Xiujin is back. We won’t bother you anymore. We’ll go back first.”
Mayor Lu put the cup aside and said, "It's lunch time. Come stay and have a quick meal together."
"No, no."
The guy has made it to this position now, so he still has some sense.
Everyone knows that Mayor Lu has a harmonious family and good relationships. It's not easy for his family to spend a weekend together, and these people stayed for dinner... How tactless would they be to do such a stupid thing?
Father Lu saw that his son looked a little confused and raised his eyebrows: "What's wrong? Are the preparations for the show not going well? Didn't they say that the little sister who performed with you was very smart and well-behaved?"
