The idea of ​​a lot of eggs is very enviable.

Someone thought of what Lin Wudi had just said and asked, "Didn't you say your sister is the president's assistant? Doesn't your sister have to go to work? Why is she in the army?"

Lin Wudi sighed, like a little adult: "Because my sister is pregnant, she is pregnant, so she will not be the president's assistant anymore." As he said this, he lowered his head and looked at Xiao Shiyi, "Isn't that right, Shiyi."

Little Eleven ate his hand: "One..."

The amount of information today is a bit overwhelming for everyone. Originally, everyone just wanted to see the excitement and listen to gossip. The gossip about the leader's family is definitely better than that about other people's families, but today's gossip is not as good as everyone imagined.

Lin Wudi chatted with everyone for a while and then pushed his stroller home, completely unaware that he was about to become famous.

Lin Yiyi was waiting at the gate of the yard. Everyone had finished their meal and left. Xiao Yu was clearing the table. Lin Yiyi was worried about the child, but she looked around and didn't see the child. Although this was a military unit, she knew the child was safe, but after all, one was a baby and the other was only seven years old, which made her think too much. Just as she was thinking too much, Lin Wudi came back slowly pushing the baby stroller. Seeing Lin Yiyi at the gate of the yard, he waved: "Sister..." So he pushed the stroller faster.

Lin Yiyi also waved at him: "You're back. Where did you take Xiaoyi for a walk?"

Brother Lin Wu said with a smile: "I will walk from here to the school gate. I am taking Xiao Shiyi to find the way." As he spoke, his smile gradually became bigger, and it was obvious that he was in a good mood.

Lin Yiyi patted his head and said, "Xiaowu is really amazing. He can even lead my nephew to find the way. Did you meet anyone on the way and what happened?"

Lin Wudi: "I met a lot of aunties on the way and we chatted with them." Lin Wudi, who felt like he had integrated into the aunties' group, was a little proud.

Lin Yiyi couldn't help but laugh: "What did you guys talk about? Share it with me."

So, Lin Wudi recounted what had just happened, his eyes sparkling and looking very cute. In fact, after hearing what Lin Wudi said, Lin Yiyi didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Xiao Wu already knows so many people, more than her sister." This is not something that cannot be said, and there are some things that cannot be said. When she talked about it with the Lin brothers, she would avoid Xiao Wu. However, proper education is still necessary, "Xiao Wu, next time someone asks about your sister and brother-in-law,

Don’t tell others about family matters.”

Lin Wudi narrowed his eyes and looked at his sister in confusion.

Lin Yiyi said, "Think about it. If others knew that we had meat and eggs, what would we do? If we didn't give them the meat and eggs, they would say we were stingy. But if we gave them the eggs, we wouldn't be able to exchange them for money at the supply and marketing cooperative, right? If we couldn't exchange them for money, we wouldn't be able to buy new clothes or White Rabbit candies for Xiaowu."

When Lin Wudi heard this, he was immediately sad: "Sister, I will never tell anyone again. Our meat coupons and eggs must be exchanged for money at the supply and marketing cooperative."

Lin Yiyi said: "Not only do we need to exchange money, we also need to make braised pork for Xiaowu so that he can grow up quickly."

Upon hearing this, Lin Wudi smiled. The child's smile was pure and simple.

Xiao Yu cleaned up the table and washed the dishes. He saw the couple chatting at the door. He said, "It's time to take a shower. Who will go first?"

Fifth Brother Lin: “I’m here.”

Speaking of bathing, Lin Yiyi wants to buy a big bathtub for Xiao Shiyi. She gave birth to Xiao Shiyi in October last year. It was cool at that time. Until now, Xiao Shiyi has been bathing with a towel. There is no air conditioning in this world, and Lin Yiyi is worried about putting him in the water to wash. Now it is almost June, Xiao Shiyi is eight months old, and can sit and take a bath in the bathtub, so Lin Yiyi plans to buy a big bathtub. There is such a big bathtub in the system mall. It is made of wood, just like a carpenter makes it, but she is not easy to buy it now, so she decided to go home when the time comes, and bring the bathtub with her when she comes back, saying that she bought it and asked the carpenter to make it before, but she just forgot to get it.

the next day

"Sister Lin...Sister Lin..." Lin Yiyi was eating when she heard this familiar voice. It seemed to be Mrs. Bei. She hurried out and saw that it was indeed Mrs. Bei. "Sister Bei."

Bei said, "Sister Lin, I'm going to the back hill to collect firewood. Do you want to go with me?"

Lin Yiyi was stunned: "Go to the back mountain to collect firewood?"

Bei said, "Yes, our coal and firewood are all issued by the army, but the quota costs money, so in order to save money, or some families who don't have enough coal and firewood on weekdays will go to the back mountain to collect them. The trees on the mountain cannot be cut down, but firewood can be collected. This mountain is so big, some people can collect firewood. Do you want to go?"

Lin Yiyi: "Go, go, go." For someone like her who needs to heat water for bathing every day, a month's supply of coal and firewood is definitely not enough. "Wait for me,"

Mr. Bei: "Then I'll go home for a while and wait for you at the army gate later."

Lin Yiyi: "Okay, thank you, Sister Bei."

Lin Yiyi changed into clothes from a few years ago, a gray cotton long-sleeved T-shirt and black cotton trousers, paired with a pair of black running shoes. She had to wear something loose and comfortable when going up the mountain. She originally wanted to wear cloth shoes, but cloth shoes are not durable for climbing, so she changed to running shoes. She tied up her shoulder-length black hair into a ponytail. Many heroines in books about time travel would tie their hair into a bun, but Lin Yiyi felt that a bun was really inappropriate in this era.

Lin Yiyi: "Xiaowu, my sister and the guests who came yesterday went to the back hill to collect firewood. Can you stay at home to take care of Xiaoyi and play with her? There are pumpkin cakes made by my sister on the table. You can eat them if you are hungry."

Fifth brother Lin: "Sister, I can go pick firewood too." When he was at home, he followed his brothers to cut grass for pigs and pick firewood. What kind of work hadn't he done? Fifth brother Lin thought he was great at work.

Lin Yiyi: "If you also go to collect firewood, who will take care of Xiao Shiyi at home?"

Lin Wudi thought for a while and said, "Sister, why don't you rest at home and I'll go collect firewood." He is a man and has to take the responsibility of taking care of his family, so there is nothing wrong with his sister taking care of the children while he goes to collect firewood.

Lin Yiyi: "...You are still a child. You take care of the baby at home. I am going to collect firewood." As for whether the child would cry, Lin Yiyi was not worried. She had never thought of raising a child. Although she would do her best to give the child the best, giving the child the best did not mean that she would spoil the child. Besides, Xiaowu and Xiaoyi always played together, so it was okay to let them stay at home. Of course, just in case, Lin Yiyi still set a time for herself, "I am going to collect firewood now. I will be back in about an hour and a half. During this hour and a half, the house will be left to you, Xiaowu, the little man."

Brother Lin Wu: "Okay, I will definitely take care of Xiaoyi."

Lin Yiyi: "Do you still remember what my sister taught you before? You can't touch the kitchen at home, you can't touch the firewood in the kitchen, and you can't touch the light switch on the wall." It's daytime now, and the child can't touch anything related to electricity. But it's not certain about the kitchen. Maybe the child will cook on impulse. Xiaowu has never cooked before, and Lin Yiyi doesn't advocate letting a seven-year-old child learn to cook. Although it is said that children of poor families become independent early, that is out of helplessness, and letting children become independent early does not necessarily mean cooking.

Fifth Brother Lin: “I remember everything.”

Lin Yiyi: "That's good, then sister is leaving."

Lin Wudi: "Hey."

Lin Yiyi waved to her son again: "See you on the 11th."

Xiao Shiyi also waved to his mother and did not make a fuss to stay with her. Normally, his mother would often go away for a while, and he was used to it.

As soon as Lin Yiyi left, Lin Wudi started to coax Xiao Shiyi to play. His method of coaxing was... telling stories, and he told them very vividly.

Lin Yiyi arrived at the entrance of the troop and ran into Bei, who had just arrived at about the same time. Lin Yiyi was a little surprised that there was only Bei. But she was smart enough not to ask anyone else.

Mrs. Bei didn't have to go to collect firewood today. She went to collect firewood because she was new to the army and didn't know anything. However, this kind of interaction has a kind of deliberate friendship in it, but it doesn't make people feel annoying. This way of getting along in life is very normal, and Mrs. Bei is a very cheerful person. Lin Yiyi likes to get along with her.

Lin Yiyi: "Sister-in-law, have you been waiting for a long time?"

Mrs. Bei: "I just got here too." She looked at Lin Yiyi's clothes, long shirt and long pants, which was good, otherwise there would be bugs on the mountain, and it would be bad if they bit her. Then she tied her hair into a ponytail, looking clean and tidy, and she just thought this girl was pretty. "The back mountain we went to is the back mountain of our unit, but we have to go around the outside of the unit, and it will take at least 15 minutes to walk there."

Lin Yiyi: "That's okay. When we go to the mountains to collect firewood in our hometown, we have to walk about this distance. I'm used to it." She also exercises in the countryside, taking walks and doing yoga from time to time, and her physical condition is still pretty good.

Bei was relieved to hear her say this. She was worried that Miss Lin was too delicate and could not endure hardships. However, she saw Miss Lin cooking yesterday, so she should not be the kind of girl who could not endure hardships. After all, if you don't work hard in cooking, you can't make such a dish.

When the two were leaving, Mrs. Bei said, "Sister, I heard what you and Sister Xu talked about in the kitchen yesterday. I was planning to come and see if I could help, but when I heard you talking about the child, I did not come in." In order to prevent Lin Yiyi from thinking that she was eavesdropping, Mrs. Bei explained.

Lin Yiyi was stunned. She was not stupid. There must be a reason why Mrs. Bei suddenly brought up this matter. She asked, "Is it related to the child?"

Mrs. Bei said, "Yes, the younger sister of the Xu family has had two miscarriages. She had been living in the countryside before, and now she is following the army to take care of her nephew, the child of Captain Xu's eldest brother. She also came because she wanted to have a child."

This news... surprised Lin Yiyi a little.

Bei said: "I heard from my husband that Captain Xu had

An elder brother, also a soldier, died in a major mission. After his death, the army representative went to Captain Xu's hometown and delivered his brother's belongings and consolation money. But at that time, Captain Xu came out and said he didn't want the consolation money, he wanted a recruitment quota. Because Captain Xu's brother made contributions in that mission, the army weighed the pros and cons and tested Captain Xu first to see if he met the requirements. After meeting the requirements, he became a glorious soldier. "

Mrs. Bei continued, "Captain Xu's brother had a wife and two sons at the time, and his place in the army was bought by his brother's life, so Captain Xu's sister-in-law asked Captain Xu to give her half of his annual salary for 20 years. Of course, this salary was used for Captain Xu's two nephews. If his sister-in-law remarried, she would not be able to take the money with her."

Lin Yiyi was a little surprised when she heard this. She didn't expect that this sister-in-law was quite smart. She only asked for half of Captain Xu's salary and left half to Captain Xu. This not only won Captain Xu's gratitude, but also made Captain Xu give her money and owe her a favor. For this sister-in-law, a consolation payment of a few hundred yuan was not enough to support two sons. It would be better to use the consolation payment to exchange for a recruitment quota.

However, since my sister-in-law is a smart person, life should not be bad. But from what Mrs. Bei said, it was obviously not the case.

Lin Yiyi: "Is this sister-in-law making things difficult for Sister-in-law Xu?"

Mrs. Bei: "No, I heard from the Xu family sister that the two nephews were not good people, they were very naughty. When she was pregnant for the first time, she didn't know it yet. The two nephews bumped into her when they were playing, and then she lost her baby. For the first time, because she didn't know it herself, she didn't think about other things. But the second time, because of the experience of the first time, she was very careful and kept calculating when she would get pregnant. After she got pregnant, she was even more careful, but she was still bumped and had a miscarriage. After the second time, she suspected that the first time was also intentional, so she came to join the army."

Lin Yiyi: "Could it be that sister-in-law's idea?"

Bei smiled slightly: "Why would Miss Lin say that?"

Lin Yiyi: "From what you said just now, from the behavior of Captain Xu's sister-in-law, she should be a smart woman, but how could a smart woman raise such a child? So I think that sister-in-law must have asked her son to do it behind her back. If this daughter has two miscarriages, we don't know what will happen next. If Sister Xu

"Since you won't have any more children in the future, Captain Xu still doesn't treat your nephew as your son?"

Mrs. Bei nodded: "Sister Xu also thought so, so she came to join the army. But my sister-in-law can't follow the army, right?"

Lin Yiyi: "Then my sister-in-law can't come, but her son can come."

Bei: "Sister Xu has been here for more than a year, and I haven't seen anyone from there come over. I guess that won't happen again."

Lin Yiyi said: "I will not mention this in front of Mrs. Xu in the future. I didn't know her situation yesterday. She is also very pitiful." Only a mother would understand the feeling of having a daughter who has had two miscarriages.

Mr. Bei: “That’s right.”

As they talked, the two of them had already gone around the perimeter of the military camp and reached the foot of the mountain. It must be said that the military camp was really large, otherwise it wouldn't have taken them so long just to walk from the military camp gate to the back mountain.

However, this mountain is even bigger, as big as a town.

There was a lot of dry firewood on the mountain. Lin Yiyi and Bei picked up a bundle and came back, but her amount was not even half of Bei's. There was nothing she could do because she was not strong enough.

Bei: "Ms. Lin, are you going to the village to exchange things these days? If we need something here, we will go to the village to exchange it, or we can buy it with money."

Lin Yiyi counted the vegetables at home and said, "I'll go there the day after tomorrow." They would last for two days, so she would finish eating the vegetables at home first, otherwise they would be wasted if they dried.

Mr. Bei: "Then I will come and call you the day after tomorrow morning."

Lin Yiyi: “Okay.”

When they got home, Lin Wudi and Xiao Shiyi were sitting at the door. Xiao Shiyi had fallen asleep in the stroller. Lin Wudi was reading his own picture book. When he saw Lin Yiyi coming back, his eyes lit up: "Sister." Seeing that his sister was covered in sweat, Lin Wudi considerately went to get a towel.

Lin Yiyi: "Thank you, Xiaowu. I'm going to take a shower. What do you want to eat for lunch?"

Lin Wudi: "Can I eat anything I want?"

Lin Yiyi said: "If it's something we have at home, then it's fine."

Lin Wudi: "Of course there is. I want to eat fried rice with egg."

Lin Yiyi: "Since Xiaowu is so well behaved today and is taking care of our nephew, let's have egg fried rice today."

Fifth Brother Lin: “That’s great.”

Before Lin Yiyi went to take a bath, she washed the rice and cooked. The matches were burning, so she asked Lin Wudi to watch the fire and went to take a bath. After taking a bath, the meal was not ready yet and Xiao Shiyi was still sleeping, so Lin Yiyi woke her son up maliciously. If the child sleeps too much during the day, he will not sleep at night, which is not good.

Lin Yiyi wakes up her son

The method was a bit naughty. She pinched her son's little nose. Little Eleven couldn't breathe through his nose, so he breathed through his mouth. His little mouth opened and closed, which made Lin Yiyi's heart beat fast. Then she lowered her head and kissed her son on the little mouth. She took away her son's first kiss without any guilt.

Little Eleven was disturbed again and again and was in a bad mood when he woke up. He opened his eyes angrily and was about to burst into tears when he saw clearly who was disturbing him: "Yi Yi..." It was his favorite mother.

Lin Yiyi took him out of the stroller and said, "Baby, wake up. Grandpa Sun is out."

Little Eleven lay in her arms, his eyes narrowed, and continued to sleep.

Lin Yiyi: "..." Gently poking his smiling face, his white and tender face was so soft and tender that it was really hard to let go. After playing for a while, Lin Yiyi put him on the bed.

It was almost noon when Lin Yiyi made egg fried rice with tomatoes and eggs, and the soup was made of dried wild vegetables brought from home.

During lunch, a young woman came.

"Excuse me, is anyone there?"

Lin Yiyi stood up to greet them: "Yes, yes, who are you?" Lin Yiyi looked at the young woman in front of her, who seemed to be in her early twenties. Her appearance was not very good, but she had a smiling face and looked virtuous and gentle.

The woman said, "Hello, my name is Li Hui. I'm in charge of logistics at the family home. Tomorrow is June 1st. Our military family home will celebrate Children's Day for the children. I heard the other day that you have family members here, but the children have not registered, so I came to ask, do you want to participate? Of course, this is not mandatory to participate."

Lin Yiyi agreed immediately after hearing this: "Yes, I'm sorry, we just moved here the day before yesterday and didn't know about this. Is there an age limit for children to participate?"

Li Hui said: "It doesn't matter. Generally, we will go to the door to ask if there are new family members accompanying the army. The children who participate range from toddlers who can walk around three years old to 14 years old. However, some 15-16-year-old children who are still in primary school can also participate."

Lin Yiyi: "Okay, I'll take note. We have a child who is 7 years old this year. He will go to the first grade of the military primary school in the second half of the year. Before that, he was in a nursery. If he participates in this Children's Day, are there any requirements?"

Li Hui said: "I have only one request. When the time comes, prepare a number of snacks according to the number of children coming from each family, one plate for each."

Lin Yiyi said: "That's no problem. Where is Children's Day held?"

Li Hui: "In the playground of the courtyard

, starting at 6:30 tomorrow evening, each child can perform a show. Do your children have any shows to perform?"

Lin Yiyi didn't know about this. She asked Lin Wudi, "Xiaowu, we are going to participate in the Children's Day tomorrow. There will be many children playing and eating together. Do you want to perform?"

Lin Wudi: "Can you tell me a story?"

Lin Yiyi: “…”

Li Hui: "You can tell stories. We don't limit the programs that children can watch. The important thing is participation. Any program is fine."

So, Lin Wudi signed up for a storytelling program.

Tomorrow is Children's Day, what should I prepare for the children? If I prepare a snack for each person, Lin Yiyi thought about it and got it. She was going to bring fried sweet potatoes for Lin Wudi. Cut the sweet potatoes into strips, steam them, and then coat them with a thin layer of flour and fry them. They are the French fries in the real world, but they are different from the French fries in KFC. Back then, Lin Yiyi particularly liked this kind of French fries, which were sold at Burger Boy.

The next day was Children’s Day, which was a Tuesday. The children had classes during the day, so after 6:30, the children were free, so Children’s Day officially began.

At 6:20, the family home radio broadcast sounded:

Parents, please note that it is almost 6:30. Please bring your children to the playground of the family courtyard.

The broadcast was broadcast three times in total.

Lin Yiyi brought her fifth brother Lin, and Xiao Yu held Xiao Shiyi, and the family of four went together.

I have to say that the staff of the family home of this unit has done a very good job. In order to provide a good environment for the children, the future flowers of the motherland, they are working very hard. Even schools outside may not celebrate Children's Day on June 1st.

Bei: "The Lin family's sister is here."

Next to Mrs. Bei is Mrs. Jiang, including Mrs. Bei's two sons and Mrs. Jiang's two daughters and two sons. The five-person team is still very powerful.

Lin Yiyi said to Xiao Yu, "Take Xiao Eleven and go for a walk. I'll stay here." They couldn't let him follow this group of women.

Xiao-Woo: "Yeah."

The author has something to say: Hello little angels, there have been two updates on weekends this month, and three more on weekends starting from September!
