Chapter 497 Old Friends

And the ladies...

Just think about it, Jiang Cuihua is very worried, she wishes she could have the ability to clone herself so that she can help her son and his daughter with more work.

But Brother Liu refused and said, "Mom, we don't need your help. Yeye is in school and Huzi is in the nursery. You don't have to take care of the children. We can handle it."

The hardship will only be in these two years. Once the two children grow up, it will be easier for them to be adults.

The situation is the same for Liu Yinyin.

Once the triplets are old enough to go to daycare, she will have time to do other things.

When we arrived at Brother Liu's house, Sister Liu was preparing lunch at home.

Her parents-in-law came to the island to visit them, and Liu Ersao took a rare day off.

Now that the children were being taken care of, Liu Yinyin got up and went to the kitchen to help.

Mrs. Liu bought a lot of food today, including pork belly, prawns, crabs, sea fish, and some vegetables.

"Little sister, are you and your brother-in-law okay over there?"

"It's pretty good." Liu Yinyin rolled up her sleeves and helped wash the vegetables. "It's just that eating seafood is not as convenient as here."

When I lived on the island, I had seafood to eat almost every meal, including palm-sized crabs, prawns, and abalone. I could eat as much as I wanted.

Thinking about it, it makes people miss it.

Mrs. Liu said hurriedly, "I exchanged a few packages of dried seafood with someone yesterday. You and mother can share them later."

Knowing that Jiang Cuihua and Liu Yinyin were coming, she bought these things specially for them.

I don't mean anything else. On one side are the parents-in-law, and on the other side is the sister-in-law who has done them a favor.

Not to mention a few packages of dried seafood, it would be reasonable to send more things.

Liu Yinyin smiled and said, "Second sister-in-law, I won't be polite to you."

This time she came, she also wanted to buy some dried seafood to eat.

Even if there is a system, it is not easy to smuggle pork out every day.

The children need nutrition, so when there is no meat to eat, we can only give them eggs, dried seafood and so on.

Mrs. Liu said, "Why are you being so polite to me? I'll send you some dried seafood when I have time."

Anyway, dried seafood is not valuable on the island.

Liu Ersao prepared lunch, and Liu Yinyin just helped her.

Braised fish, braised pork, garlic prawns, steamed crabs, cabbage stewed with vermicelli, shredded potatoes with green peppers.

At noon, Brother Liu also came to eat.

After dinner, Brother Liu and Brother Liu went to work, and Sister Liu stayed at home with them.

There are only two rooms in the house, and there is definitely not enough space for so many people to stay at night.

Mrs. Liu said, "Dad and Mom, you stay here tonight. Mingzhong and I will go to the village to borrow a room to stay for a few days. And Yinyin..."

Liu Yinyin interrupted her and said, "Second sister-in-law, don't worry about me. I can find a house by myself."

She was going to go to the family compound to see Zheng Qiangwei, but she didn't know if she was at home.

If she didn't see Zheng Qiangwei, Liu Yinyin would go to the supply and marketing cooperative to look for her former colleagues.

Having no place to live is inconvenient. Jiang Cuihua said to her daughter-in-law, "Seeing that you are all well, your father and I are relieved. We will stay for two days... We will leave the day after tomorrow morning. We will send your younger sister home first, and then we will go back to our hometown."

She originally wanted to stay for only one night, but thought it would be too hasty to leave tomorrow morning, so she changed her mind and said she would go back the day after tomorrow morning.

Mrs. Liu tried to persuade her to stay, saying, "Mother, it's a rare opportunity for you to come here, why don't you stay here for a few more days?"

"No." Jiang Cuihua waved her hand and said, "You all have jobs, and there's nothing for us to do here, so we won't delay your work."

Liu Yinyin had no objection; she could leave anytime.

After sitting for a while, Liu Yinyin went out with a basket on her shoulder. She wanted to go to the family yard to take a look.

The basket contained a bag of snacks, a bag of White Rabbit milk candy, a bag of brown sugar, and a can of premium biscuits.

Some of the food was given to Zheng Qiangwei, a young lady.

What a coincidence, Zheng Qianwei is off today.

When Liu Yinyin arrived at the family compound, she happened to see Yang Zishan walking in circles in the yard.

Zheng Qiangwei watched from the side...

Seeing Liu Yinyin, Zheng Qianwei almost thought she was seeing things, and wiped her eyes and said, "...Sister-in-law, it's really you!"

Liu Yinyin smiled and said, "I came to the island to visit my elder and second brothers, and I just happened to come to the family compound to see if you are here."

Zheng Qiangwei muttered: "You should have told me in advance. If I hadn't taken a day off today, we wouldn't have met."

Liu Yinyin: "Nothing, work is more important."

"You don't know, I miss you so much." Liu Yinyin doesn't live in the family compound.

Zheng Qiangwei has no friends anymore. She is not sociable and cannot get along with other military wives.

Liu Yinyin smiled and asked casually, "Has anyone moved in next door?"

She heard nothing next door.

Zheng Qiangwei nodded: "Yes, but the other party is quite old, about 40 or 50 years old. He is a nice person, but we don't have much in common to talk about."

How could Zheng Qiangwei not miss Liu Yinyin when she couldn't get along with anyone around her?

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Zheng Qiangwei asked, "By the way, how long do you plan to stay on the island this time?"

Liu Yinyin told her: "Stay for two days and go back the day after tomorrow morning."

Zheng Qiangwei asked hurriedly: "Where do you live?"

She remembered that Liu Yinyin's elder brother and second brother were both on the island.

Her eldest brother lives in the staff dormitory, and the second brother has only two houses, but...

There are only two rooms, and there is not enough room for us.

Liu Yinyin paused and said, "I was just thinking of going to the supply and marketing cooperative to ask Auntie Wang for help. I want to find a house in the village to stay for two days."

"You don't have a place to stay?" Zheng Qiangwei said, "Don't bother, you can just stay at my house. Yiming has just gone on a mission, and I'm scared to live alone at home with the child."

Liu Yinyin hesitated and asked, "Is it convenient?"

Zheng Qiangwei said indifferently: "What's the inconvenience? We have rooms at home. Yiming just left for a mission two days ago and won't be back for a while."

"You can live here and talk to me."

Liu Yinyin did not refuse: "Then I'll trouble you. I'll eat at my second sister-in-law's house during the day and come over to stay at night?"

Zheng Qianwei pursed her lips and smiled: "All is fine."

Having said that, Zheng Qiangwei took Liu Yinyin into the house and picked a room.

Just like when Liu Yinyin lived next door before, Zheng Qiangwei's house also has three rooms.

There is one room downstairs, two rooms upstairs, and a study.

Zheng Qiangwei and Yang Yiming live on the second floor.

Liu Yinyin chose a room on the first floor. She had to live with her triplets, and it was inconvenient for her to climb up and down.

After leaving Zheng Qiangwei's house, Liu Yinyin turned around and went to the supply and marketing cooperative.

As expected, when they suddenly saw Liu Yinyin, the group of people were surprised and happy.

There was another round of greetings, and when Liu Yinyin left, she was holding two sea fish and a bag of razor clams given to her by Aunt Wang.
