Chapter 120 Chapter 120 Is that it?
Mr. Wen is already 68 years old this year.
Facing an old man who was only a few years younger than his grandmother, Mu Mian smiled sweetly, "Thank you, Uncle Wen."
The old man nodded seriously and said, "Keep it."
Mu Mian smiled and put her hands in her pockets. There were pockets on both sides of the dress, which were quite big, so she might have used them for daily use.
The pocket is so big that even after putting the red envelope in it, it still makes the pocket bulge slightly.
Mu Zhuo came over. Although he glared at Wen Zhan every day, he still had the proper manners when facing his elders.
Especially when facing former seniors, respect almost overflows from his eyes and he raises his hand to salute.
Mu Mian understood her brother very well and reached out to take the crutch.
They loosened one by one, and the movements were very smooth.
Mr. Wen really likes young and capable juniors. He glanced at Mu Zhuo's legs, raised his hand and patted Mu Zhuo on the shoulder, "Do a good job!"
Mu Zhuo said seriously, "Yes!"
Chai Shunan pulled a chair over and said, "We don't do this at home. Xiaozhuo, please sit down."
Mu Zhuo was wearing a military uniform today, and he looked very serious. "Aunt, you go ahead and do your thing. My legs won't be in the way."
Chai Shunan didn't bother to be polite. "Okay, you guys continue chatting. There's still food in the pot. I'll go take a look."
Liu Shuangcui followed and went over to help, "Is there anything else you want to do?"
Chai Shunan: "Hey, big sister, take a break and drink some tea. There's nothing else to do."
Liu Shuangcui naturally couldn't rest. She replaced Li Tianhe's position in just a few words and told the young people to get to know each other better.
Young people and little kids talk a lot when they get together. The living room is filled with so much chatter that it seems like they are going to blow the roof off.
Mu Zhuo sat opposite Grandpa Wen, and the two of them played chess with serious faces. The two half-baked players managed to create the atmosphere of a game between masters.
Mu Mian and her sister-in-law were pulled together by Li Tianhe to talk, and they got along very well.
Li Tianhe is thirty-seven this year. The two sisters-in-law are seventeen or eighteen years apart in age. She looks at Mu Mian like her own daughter. "I've heard An Jing mention you from time to time recently. I finally get to see you."
Her husband often said that the girl was fair and clean, and her smile was pleasing to the eye. Now that she saw her, she was even more beautiful than she had imagined.
No wonder
The fourth brother took a liking to the girl at first sight and risked breaking his legs just to take the little girl home.
Three little kids were making noises nearby. When Wen Anjing heard her name, she immediately stood in front of Li Tianhe and said, "Am I right? Little Mian is so pretty."
Mu Mian adjusted the little girl's short hair and said generously, "Thank you Comrade Weiguo for the compliment!"
Wen Anjing waved her hand and said, "We are family, why should we be polite to each other?"
Xixi acted like a little adult, "We will all be a family from now on."
While the female comrades and the little kids were chatting with each other, Wen Chen, who was standing next to them, was also pulled over by Wen Yi to talk in private.
He originally wanted to go into the kitchen to help, but he couldn't squeeze in and was driven out by Chai Shunan.
Wen Yi looked at the little girl who was chatting and laughing with their second sister-in-law, then looked at his own fourth son with a look as if he was looking at an animal, crossing his arms, "How did you get together with this person?"
He was really curious.
Wen Chen didn't want to say more, "You'll know if you go there yourself."
Wen Yi: “………………”
Wen Yi opened and closed his mouth, with an exaggerated sad expression on his face, "That's not what you said before. You just throw away the shield when you don't need it anymore, right?"
Wen Zhan gave his third brother an indecisive look.
In the past, the third brother was like a brick, moved wherever he was needed, but now he is really useless.
Wen Zhe, who was just watching the old man and the others play chess, heard the noise and came over. He hooked his arm around Wen Yi's shoulder and whispered, "Some gay men don't care about us anymore. They only care about their girlfriends."
The little guy himself didn't look at Wen Zhan at this moment. Mu Mian was pulled by Li Tianhe to look at the photos of Brother Wen's family.
Li Tianhe handed the photo to Mu Mian and said, "This was sent back by my eldest brother and his wife last year. They don't like taking photos, so they only take one or two photos a year. They are mainly sent to the children."
Nie Sihui took a look and said, "He looks quite young."
Mu Mian focused on the appearance, "He looks quite similar to Fourth Brother and the others."
Li Tianhe: "Well, they all look like their father. The eldest brother is not young anymore, he is already 45 years old, and the eldest sister-in-law is five years younger than him."
Wen Chen actually told Mu Mian all this. His eldest brother Wen Qi and his eldest sister-in-law Zou Wanxiu met through a blind date. After marriage, they had three children. Wen Anhang had two older brothers, the oldest of whom was already fifteen years old.
It was already late, so we chatted about this and that, and soon the dishes were ready.
The three little kids were counting the number of people and setting the table.
"There are twelve people, so take twelve pairs of chopsticks."
"I counted thirteen."
“Wen Anhang, are you stupid? There were clearly thirteen, but you didn’t count yourself. Aren’t you going to eat later?”
"Why don't I eat? I want to eat three big bowls!"
“I can eat four bowls.”
“Then I can eat five bowls!”
…………
…
Amid the noise, the large round table in the living room was filled with people.
The Wen family hasn't had a wedding celebration for a long time, and today's dishes were particularly rich. The three little kids were so greedy that they drooled and sat there staring at Grandpa Wen.
In such situations, the children naturally wouldn't dare to eat before the adults started eating.
Chai Shunan picked up a piece of food with chopsticks for Mr. Wen, and then immediately started to prepare, "Eat quickly, eat quickly, or it will get cold if you don't eat it."
Then he picked up another piece of food for Mu Mian with his chopsticks, "Eat more, Xiao Mian."
Mu Mian smiled and said, "Thank you, auntie."
Wen Zhan sat next to Mu Mian and was very adept at feeding him. He would pick up this and that, and Mu Mian's bowl was never empty.
The pockets are bulging, and the belly is bulging too.
Of course, the focus today was not on the meal. The two families chatted while eating. The meal lasted nearly two hours. After the meal, Mu Mian and Wen Zhan’s marriage was basically settled.
The 16th of next month is a good day. The two can get the marriage certificate first. Of course, it is impossible to hold the wedding in the capital. Whether it will be held in the brigade or in Ningzhang, we will see when the time comes.
Today is the 25th, and there are still about 20 days left, which is enough to file a marriage report back and forth.
This place is not particularly far from Ningzhang City, so there is still enough time to expedite the process.
By then, Mu Zhuo's injury will probably be healed, and he will have to bring his wife and children back to the team. His current vacation is an injury leave, so he will have to report back when he recovers and cannot stay outside for too long.
Wen Zhen took a long home visit leave this time. After all, he hadn't taken a leave for several years, and all the time he had saved up had been accumulated, so it was still early for him to return to the team.
Once the marriage report is approved, you can also apply for some marriage leave.
Liu Shuangcui and Mu Mian must go back to the brigade. They came out in a hurry this time. They only brought some spare clothes and daily necessities, and many things were not arranged.
Wen Zhan has vacation time and can go back with the mother and daughter.
The two families got together and chatted until almost four o'clock.
Just like when he picked him up in the morning, Wen Chen walked him all the way to the small alley. Since the bus had not yet stopped running, he was not in a hurry to go back.
Mu Mian took out the red envelope given by Mr. Wen and counted it. He had never looked at it before, but he felt that it was very thick.
As soon as Mu Mian opened it, all he saw was unity.
You won’t know until you count, and you’ll be shocked when you do. There are a total of eight hundred and eighty-eight!
Mu Mian opened her mouth. She knew it might be a lot, but she didn't expect it to be so much. In this day and age, who would give so much in a red envelope?
Liu Shuangcui was also startled, and turned around to call out to Wen Chen, "Xiao Wen, is your father giving you too much?"
There were so many that she wanted to ask someone to take them back, but it seemed that no one took back the red envelopes given to the gay men and lesbians when they met to discuss marriage.
Another thing is that the Wen family has more than one son, and except for the third son who has no partner, all the others are married.
Wen Chen seemed to know what Liu Shuangcui was thinking, and smiled and said, "Not much. My eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law also had some in the past. It was considered as a settlement fee. Part of it should also have been added by my eldest brother and sister-in-law."
While Liu Shuangcui felt a little relieved, she was still a little shocked that her future in-laws were so rich.
With so much money around her all of a sudden, Liu Shuangcui didn't sleep well at night. Before going to bed, she reminded Mu Mian several times to keep the money safe.
The main thing is that this is not home. The place where you hide money at home is very safe. There is nowhere to hide here.
Mu Mian slept soundly and had a good night's sleep.
At noon the next day, Wen Zhan came alone on a bicycle.
Wen Yi was at home this week. Wen Anjing and Wen Anhang were very interested in their third uncle whom they hadn't seen for a month or two, and started to make a fuss with him.
At this moment, Mu Mian and his daughter Liu Shuangcui were the only ones at home in the alley. Today, a cooperative was setting up a stall on the roadside, so Mu Zhuo took his wife and daughter to buy things.
Mu Mian was finishing up her picture book. Getting married was one thing, but money also needed to be earned. She had planned to send it out at the end of this month, and she couldn't delay it.
Wen Zhan came with a marriage report.
The two of them sat next to each other at the desk. Mu Mian was familiar with the marriage report. She had seen it when her brother and sister-in-law got married.
But when it was his turn, he still felt it was quite fresh. Mu Mian shook it open and took a look, and immediately noticed the crease on the paper.
She tilted her head to look at her boyfriend, with a smile in her eyes, "Didn't you write it in the past two days?"
Wen Chen also laughed, "Yeah, it's been a few days."
He wrote it on the first day they started dating and never showed it to them.
Mu Mian picked up the pen and skillfully signed where she was required to write.
Wen Chen didn't put it away immediately. While waiting for the ink to dry, he chatted with his partner, "I should be able to apply for a house after the report is approved."
Mu Mian raised his eyelids and said, "Don't you say that we need a marriage certificate?"
Wen Zhuan: "For those of me who got married at my age, Yang Lu should give me some special care. Some people have done that before."
Rules are rules, but they are not dead.
Once the marriage report is approved, they are considered half a couple by default. It is a good thing to have a bachelor in the army, and leaders generally won't be so stubborn.
Wen Chen looked at his partner and said, "I'll call Lao Dong in a few days and ask him to keep an eye on the house next to Lao Mu's. It was still empty before I went on vacation. I'll try to apply for that one."
Mu Mian's eyes sparkled. "Then we will live next door to each other. We won't have to cook and can eat together. Will the chances of getting the application be high?"
Wen Chen nodded, "It should be quite big. There are only one or two people at the regiment level who haven't gotten married yet. Besides me, the other one probably has no plans to get married for the time being."
Mu Mian knew this. "Captain Zhang, right? Big brother said that he is already 35 years old and is the oldest bachelor in the base."
Wen Chen lowered his head, his narrow eyes full of smiles, "Well, Yang Lu always said before that I can probably endure longer than Brother Zhang."
Mu Mian laughed out loud, "Then Commander Yang was wrong."
Wen Chen whispered, "If I really live to be Zhang's age, will you still agree to be a partner?"
Mu Mian held his chin up to his hand, without hesitation, "Chu, that's six years from now. I'll be twenty-six by then, and my parents will surely be worried about me. If we really wait until then, maybe you won't have to take the beating from your elder brother."
Wen Chen laughed softly, "That's not necessarily true.
Maybe more. ”
Mu Mian said seriously, "Then I will help stop them."
Wen Chen also replied seriously: "Thank you for your help."
Maybe it’s because the wedding date is on the agenda, or maybe it’s because the house is a little quiet without three people.
It was just normal small talk, but the atmosphere was much more boring than usual.
Liu Shuangcui was busy in the kitchen, and she didn't come out. There were only two young people in love in the wing room.
As he was talking, Wen Chen moved his naturally drooping hand to the side, accurately grasped his partner's small hand, and rubbed it twice as usual.
Mu Mian lowered her head, her eyes moving from her hands upwards, inevitably sweeping across the firm abdomen. Every time she went out before, she only pulled her clothes and didn't dare to reach out to the side.
Now that I’m not sitting on the bike, I dare not stretch out my hands.
Noticing the gaze, Wen Zhan straightened his back imperceptibly.
No one knew why, but the two of them tacitly stopped talking and looked at each other for several seconds. Mu Mian's butt left the stool first, and he leaned his head over and pecked his partner on the face.
It left as soon as it was touched, and the butt sat back in its original position.
Then the round eyes began to look around, at the ceiling, the ground, the book, the pen, but never looked to the side.
This is how it goes from theory to practice. We need to try it out first to see the effect.
Next to him, Wen Chen stared at his partner without blinking, and the warm touch on his face seemed to still be there.
My heart was pounding and my Adam's apple was rolling.
I don't know how much time passed, maybe just a few seconds, or maybe a minute or two.
Wen Chen lowered his head, and his breathing was hotter than usual.
Mu Mian tilted his head towards his partner and closed his eyes subconsciously, and then he felt a warm touch on his face.
It also leaves as soon as it is touched.
And then, nothing happened.
Mu Mian's pupils moved under his eyelids, "????"
She closed her eyes, and that was it...that's it?
