"Tomorrow is National Day. Don't you want to go to the military district to watch the National Day celebrations?" Qiao Xiazhi said.
Hearing this, Qiao Daguo said excitedly: "Can we go too?"
Qiao Xiazhi: "Of course, and because of your brother-in-law, we are family members and can sit in the front row to watch."
Qiao Daguo was excited and excited: "Sure enough, it's different to have an officer brother-in-law."
Qiao Xiazhi: "After lunch, we will go there in the afternoon. We will stay in the guesthouse there first, and then we can go there to watch the National Day celebrations tomorrow morning."
"Although I can't go to Beijing to watch the National Day celebrations, it's also nice to watch the National Day celebrations of the military district troops."
Qiao Xiaohua even joked: "If you go to watch the National Day celebrations, are they all soldiers? Are all the soldiers tall and handsome?"
"Sister, take a look tomorrow and see if there's anyone you like. I'll help you be a matchmaker."
As soon as she finished speaking, Qiao Xiaohua was slapped on the butt by her sister as expected.
"Why are you hitting me? I'm doing this for you. You'll be 16 or 17 soon. You can meet someone now. You can get married when you turn 18."
"Sister Dongzhi almost has a partner. She will be able to get married in two years. Aren't you in a hurry?"
"It's so nice to marry a soldier. Look at how tall and handsome my brother-in-law is. It makes me feel so safe!!"
"And Officer Su, he was also a soldier before, and he's also tall and handsome."
"Then you can't fall behind either."
Qiao Moli said shyly, "You said, I won't explain it to you next time if you don't understand a question."
Hearing this, this threat was nothing to Qiao Xiaohua, so she smiled and said, "If you don't want to teach me, then don't teach me. I'll ask Sister Dongzhi the same thing."
Unable to do anything for her sister, Qiao Moli had to ask Xu Li for help.
"Mom, look at Xiaohua."
Xu Li couldn't stop laughing and said, "Okay, Xiaohua, stop making fun of your sister Jasmine."
Seeing someone helping her, Qiao Moli smiled and said, "That's right, you're just a kid, it's better for you to study hard."
At this time, Qiao Xiuyun, who was washing vegetables in the yard, asked, "Xiaohua is in the second grade this year, right?"
Qiao Xiaohua: "I will be in the third grade in September this year. I am in the third grade now."
Qiao Moli: "He's still a little brat even in the third grade!"
Qiao Xiaohua made a face at Qiao Moli, "Lelelelelelelelel~~~"
Qiao Moli: "Children are children, no matter how childish they are."
Qiao Xiuyun: "So Dongzhi and Moli are both in the third year of junior high school now. Will they continue to study after graduating from junior high school?"
After that, Qiao Moli and Qiao Dongzhi answered in unison: "Go ahead."
Qiao Moli: "Of course I have to."
Qiao Dongzhi: "That's right, my second sister said that knowledge changes destiny, so we still have a chance and must continue studying."
After hearing what the two sisters said, Qiao Xiuyun nodded in agreement, "Yes, yes."
If it were in the past, she might not have thought so, but since she came to Hai City and saw the outside world, she really felt that she still needed to read more.
And let’s look at Xia Zhi. Xia Zhi has always been smart, and when he was at home, he also loved reading very much.
After finishing elementary school, he insisted on going to junior high school.
She loves reading and is smart, so look how capable she is now.
Now I have been appointed as the director of a military hospital while I am still in school. After graduation, I will definitely be promoted to a full-time employee and earn several hundred yuan a month. How great is that.
She has no hope in this life, and her son has no hope either, but in the future, she must save money to send her grandchildren to school.
As long as they are willing to learn, she will give them money.
Qiao Xiuyun continued to help with the cooking. In the yard, Qiao Dashan suddenly asked, "Xia Zhi, what are the names of the four treasures? We don't even know them yet."
Qiao Xiazhi pointed at the eldest on the far right and began to introduce them one by one: "The eldest is Jiang Junyun, nicknamed Xiaoyun."
"The second oldest is Jiang Junmo, nicknamed Xiaomo."
"The third child is Jiang Jintang, nicknamed Tangtang."
"The fourth child is Jiang Jinrou, nicknamed Rourou."
"Xiao Yun, Xiao Mo, Tang Tang, Rou Rou. Is Tang Tang the Tang in candy? Is she called Tang Tang because she likes to eat candy?" Qiao Xiaohua said seriously.
After he finished speaking, Qiao Xiazhi smiled and said, "They are still young and cannot eat candy. Tang is the Tang in the crabapple flower. It means beautiful, gentle, and perfect."
Qiao Xiaohua nodded, "Oh, that's how it is." Then she whispered to Qiao Moli, "Sister, how do you write the word 'tang' in haitanghua?"
Qiao Moli smiled and said, "Didn't you just nod to show that you understood? Now you can't write anymore?"
"Look at you. You're already in the third grade, but you can't even write the word 'Tang'."
Qiao Moli was just about to write the word "Tang" on the palm of Qiao Xiaohua's hand to show her.
Qiao Xiaohua didn't expect to be laughed at by her sister, so she pouted and said, "Humph, you don't need to teach me. I just didn't think of it for a moment. Now I know how to write it."
After saying that, in order to prove that she really could write, she deliberately wrote the word "Tang" on the palm of her left hand.
When Qiao Moli saw that she had written it correctly, she said, "Yes, that's it."
"Dinner is ready." Aunt Xu's voice rang out.
Then Aunt Xu led the way, followed by Xu Li, Fang Mei and others who brought out plates of dishes from the kitchen.
Fortunately, the long table in the grass pavilion is big and long enough, so there is no need to worry about not having enough seats even if there are many people in the family.
It's October now and the temperature in the north is relatively cold, but fortunately Qiao Xiazhi was well prepared. When building this thatched pavilion, he asked the master to make three removable thatched walls.
There is no need to install it when it is hot in summer, and just build a grass wall on three sides and leave one side empty in winter.
This will be warmer.
In the middle of winter, we definitely don’t eat here, we eat indoors.
All my family members are here today, and the lunch prepared by grandma, Aunt Xu, and my aunt is especially sumptuous.
Braised fish fillets, steamed fish, stewed pork ribs with potatoes, spicy chicken fillets, stuffed tofu, sauerkraut pork intestines, stir-fried cabbage, black chicken and yam soup.
There is also a cold dish of rabbit.
The rabbit was caught by my eldest brother Qiao Daguo and brought over from his hometown.
He worked hard along the way to let his sister eat fresh rabbit meat.
Fortunately, I have been weaned during the summer solstice, so I don’t need to follow any dietary restrictions and can eat whatever I want.
Otherwise you can only watch them eat.
On the lunch table, there was also watermelon juice specially squeezed by Qiao Xiazhi.
There was a sumptuous meal on the table, and everyone was very happy eating it.
After lunch, the car arranged by Jiang Yunchen came to pick them up to take to the army.
After packing up, the team headed towards the military area.
It was evening when we arrived at the military area.
Everyone first went to the military district family compound to get familiar with the route, and then after Jiang Yunchen finished his work and came back after dinner, he took everyone to the guesthouse to check in.
There are only two rooms in the house in the military district’s family compound, which is definitely not enough to live in.
