Chapter 476 Being looked down upon by my own wife
The bedding at home had been prepared long ago.
Moreover, there was already a bed in this empty room, and Xu Zilan had been sleeping here for the past few days.
After entering the empty room, Xu Zijin found that there was no need to clean up.
She took out two quilts that she had changed out before, thickened the mattress, and came out to call Lu Yulan: "Yulan, come in and sleep for a while."
The bed in the room is not big, it is a 1.2-meter-long bunk bed.
But the house was tidy.
The covers seem to be very thick.
Lu Yulan was deeply moved: "Sister-in-law, thank you."
Xu Zijin smiled and shook his head: "Don't say thank you all the time. You've made the word thank you old-fashioned."
"We're a family, don't be so polite."
"Go get in bed and warm yourself up for a while. I'll find you a set of cotton-padded pajamas. You'll be warmer wearing that later."
Lu Yulan didn't say anything, but her eyes were red and she secretly swore in her heart that she would be nice to her sister-in-law in the future.
It was ten past eight before Xu Zijin woke everyone up for breakfast.
"Wow, there's bread, I want to eat it!"
As soon as Liu Zilin saw the bread, he jumped up with joy.
Lu Yulan didn't know what bread was, but when she saw this yellow stuff and the fragrance went into her nose, she became curious.
"Sister-in-law, what is this?"
Xu Zijin put a large loaf of bread on the table. It was bread made in an electric rice cooker and was more fragrant than steamed bread.
"Try it and see if it tastes good."
"If you like, I'll teach you how to do it next time."
"Hmmmm."
Lu Yulan was very excited. She wanted to learn something, learn more, so that she wouldn't have to worry about having no food to eat in the future.
In the morning, I made bread, steamed buns, fried eggs, cooked porridge, and stir-fried two side dishes.
After breakfast, Lu Hanzhou went back to the regiment to report.
The snow stopped, the weather cleared up, the sun came out, and the snow on the ground melted quickly.
These days, the three children have been having fun and want to run outside as soon as they get home.
Especially Liu Ziwang, school is going to start tomorrow and he hasn’t finished his winter vacation homework yet.
Xu Zijin didn't let them go out. He pulled out a small table and placed the brazier under the table.
First, find two picture books and let the two little brothers play in their own room.
"Ziwang, do your homework on the table by the window."
"good."
In the three brothers' room, there was a desk against the windowsill. Liu Ziwang usually did his homework there. He immediately agreed obediently.
Lu Yulan came to the kitchen on crutches. She wanted to help Xu Zijin wash the dishes.
Xu Zijin glared at him: "Go back to your room quickly, why do you want me to wash the dishes?"
"Wait a moment. I'll move you a more comfortable chair and find you some books."
"You don't have to do anything now. If you want to do something, wait until you get better."
"I will go out to work for a few days every month from now on, so you don't have to worry about having nothing to do."
Lu Yulan naturally knew about Xu Zijin's work.
Since her sister-in-law refused to let her help, she had no choice but to go back to her room.
Soon, a simple lazy chair was moved into the room where Lu Yulan lived, and soon a cup of tea and two books were brought in.
"Sister-in-law, wow, you actually have this book?"
Xu Zijin nodded: "Someone sent it to me from outside, take a good look at it, it may be useful to you."
Lu Yulan was very excited: "Yeah, I will work hard and learn well."
Only by experiencing suffering can people grow up.
Xu Zijin believes that his sister-in-law will work hard.
After washing the dishes and cleaning up the kitchen, she took some things and went to Qi Hong's house...
"Zijin, you guys are back?"
Seeing her, Qi Hong was so happy that she immediately pulled her into the house.
The spring is chilly and the young people are freezing to death. This horrible weather is really unbearable and it makes people shiver with cold.
As soon as he entered the house, Xu Zijin felt warm all over, and immediately handed over the things in his hand: "Sister-in-law, this is a little specialty brought from my hometown, don't despise it."
When Qi Hong saw the dried rice noodles and dried herring, she immediately fell in love with them.
"Good stuff. These two specialties from Captain Lu's hometown are both famous. Thank you very much."
"But you are very generous. A fish this big doesn't cost a lot of money."
Xu Zijin chuckled: "My mother-in-law insisted that I take it. She would be unhappy if I didn't take it. There's nothing I can do about it."
Qi Hong was really envious.
There are few good mothers-in-law like this in the world.
As for your own mother-in-law, when you need her help, you can forget about it; but when she is sick and needs care, you have to take care of her.
Fortunately... I don’t have to worry anymore.
"Everything is okay at home?"
"Yeah, yeah, all good."
After making some tea, the two chatted for a while before Xu Zijin went home.
"Hello, sister-in-law."
As soon as I entered the room, I found Jiang Yongjun and his wife sitting in the room.
Xu Zijin greeted with a smile: "Hello, Ye Lin, I heard that your work has been arranged?"
Ye Lin’s work implementation was something she just talked about with Qi Hong.
She already had a formal job and was a graduate of an agricultural school, so it was normal for her to be arranged to work with the army.
Ye Lin nodded with a smile: "It's arranged, at the commune's agricultural science institute."
"We heard you guys were back, so we came to see you."
"You just got home, and I wanted to invite your family to my house for dinner tonight."
Xu Zijin felt embarrassed when he heard this.
Just now, Qi Hong asked her to have dinner together, but she refused.
"No need, we're not tired, really."
Ye Lin said, "It's not a matter of being tired or not. I left some food at home and have been waiting for you to come back."
"I have to go back to work in a few days, and I'm afraid I won't have time by then."
"Don't call anyone else, just your family and Lao Jin, let them drink together."
Since the other party was so sincere, Xu Zijin couldn't refuse.
"Okay, let's go."
Seeing Xu Zijin agreed, Ye Lin was very happy: "Then it's settled. I'll prepare dinner when I get home."
Xu Zijin also smiled: "Well, someone asked me to eat, why should I be polite?"
"Just now I was just being modest and servile, just pretending."
"Hahaha……"
Ye Lin laughed heartily: "Zi Jin, I just like your personality."
Jiang Yongjun and his wife sat for a while and then went back. The child was still at home.
It was too cold outside, so Xu Zijin immediately closed the door. At this time, Lu Yulan came out of the house.
"Sister-in-law, I won't go tonight."
Xu Zijin understood that his sister-in-law had not yet recovered from her grief and did not want to interact with too many people.
"Yeah, it's okay. Ask your eldest brother to bring it back for you from the cafeteria in the evening."
Lu Yulan was very touched. She really didn't want to deal with outsiders. She was afraid that others would ask her why she came here.
She didn't want to lie.
To be honest, she couldn't afford to lose face.
Lu Yulan joined the army just to avoid other people's gossip.
She knew that she had become a negative example of how other people educate their children, and she could not face the sympathetic yet deserving look in other people's eyes.
When you go to someone's house for dinner, you always have to bring some gifts.
Xu Zijin thought for a moment and said, "Hanzhou, will fish and dried vermicelli plus a piece of bacon and two kilograms of sausage be enough?"
"That's enough. It's okay without it."
Xu Zijin turned his head and glanced at the straight man. Lu Hanzhou shuddered: "What's wrong?"
"The emotional intelligence is worrying."
Lu Hanzhou: “…”
——My wife looks down on me!
"I never took anything from anyone's house before."
