Chapter 736: Another Educational Lesson for the Troops
When it comes to food, Xu Zijin is actually not picky at all.
But the love and care from her mother-in-law made her feel very warm.
"Children can't eat anything too spicy, so it's better to eat something slightly spicy."
"Mom, let's go to the commune and buy some lard. We'll make more and keep it for later. This will be delicious when stir-fried with vegetables."
Mother Lu nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, I'll go after dinner."
At 7:10, the four children came back, saw the big buns on the table, and quickly ran to brush their teeth and wash their faces.
Just as we were about to start eating, Wu Ying arrived.
Seeing her carrying an old hen, Xu Zijin frowned: "What are you doing? Can't you make chicken soup yourself?"
Wu Ying didn't know what to say about Xu Zijin's train of thought.
She pursed her lips and bit her lip.
"Zijin, these are the old hens I bought in the village. I bought two, one for each of us."
"Please don't refuse. This is a little gift from me."
"Don't worry, I don't mean to stick to you in the future. I just want to thank you and apologize to you."
Xu Zijin felt that his biggest shortcoming was that he was too soft-hearted.
Seeing Wu Ying's fearful look, she just couldn't harden her heart.
Raising her eyes, she said softly, "I heard that Wang Jianjun will go directly to work in the special operations detachment after completing his studies this time. Do you have any ideas?"
"Do you want to go back home? Isn't it inconvenient for you to be here alone with a child?"
Wu Ying shook her head: "No, I don't want to go back."
"I think the army is pretty good. Although it's hard to raise a child alone, it's much better than going back to my parents' home."
"You know, I don't even have a separate room in my mother's house."
"But here, the commander and his comrades care about me very much."
"Yesterday, the commander had the soldiers from the logistics department send me a lot of tickets and told me to take good care of myself and my children."
"Zijin, I'm sorry about what happened that day. It was all my fault."
Xu Zijin is not a person who cannot distinguish right from wrong. She knows that Wu Ying is not to blame for that matter. If anyone should be blamed, then blame the person who deliberately spread the rumor.
As she was also a military wife, she took the old hen and asked, "Have you had breakfast?"
Wu Ying shook her head: "Not yet, I'll go back and get food right away."
"My mother made meat dumplings. Come in if you want to eat some."
After saying that, Xu Zijin turned and went into the house.
Wu Ying pursed her lips and followed in silently...
On the third day after Qin Zhi left, Xu Yu's mother arrived.
Not long after entering the door, he came to the Lu family carrying a bunch of things.
"Zijin, your father asked me to bring this to you. He said everything is fine at home and you don't have to worry."
"By the way, the twins your sister-in-law gave birth to are so beautiful. Your sister-in-law thanked you for the gift you sent back."
Xu Yu's mother brought three old hens. They came from a long distance, and no one knew how she brought them on the train.
Since it was a gift from his father, Xu Zijin had no choice but to accept it.
"Aunt, I'll ask Sister Chang to take you to the vegetable garden later. You can pick the vegetables yourself from now on."
Xu Yu's mother nodded: "Jiaojiao, Yu'er really thanks you for taking care of me."
"But she doesn't plan to live back in the army. She said it's inconvenient to commute every day. I plan to live with her in the city."
It’s better this way. It’s really inconvenient to travel back and forth every day. Besides, Qin Zhi is not at home, so when they come back, it’s just the mother and daughter alone.
The next day, Xu Zijin called Chen Dapeng and asked him to have someone renovate the stairs.
"No problem, I'll go find someone right away."
Perhaps in preparation for war, the army once again gave all family members an education lesson, telling everyone the responsibilities of being a military wife...
After the class, Chen Xiumei, Qi Hong, Chang Qiumian and a group of people followed Xu Zijin out of the regiment officer training center.
"Zijin, why is my heart beating so fast? Is this going to be another war?"
Chen Xiumei still remembers the battle a few years ago.
At that time, she had just joined the army for a short time and her youngest son was still in her belly. The army suddenly started to educate military wives.
Not long after, Wang Jianqiang told her that he was going to the battlefield.
She remembered that she was at a loss at the time and felt like the sky was falling.
As soon as Chen Xiumei finished speaking, the other people's eyes fell on Xu Zijin...
Seeing everyone looking at her, Xu Zijin smiled gently: "Sisters, our men have given themselves to the country since the day they joined the army."
"From the day we became military wives, we all understood that a qualified military wife must firmly support her man in fulfilling his military mission of defending the country."
"Whether to fight or not is a national decision, and there is no point in us worrying about it."
"What we can do is to take good care of the family and children and not let our men worry too much outside."
"The conflict on the southwest border has never stopped since a few years ago."
"This time, our country doesn't want to play with them anymore and is ready to beat them down directly."
"Don't worry, victory will definitely belong to us."
right.
What he said made so much sense that everyone clenched their fists after hearing it.
Now that they have become a military wife, they cannot be afraid.
Only when they take good care of their small families in the rear can men protect the "big family" at the front.
These words seemed to be a stabilizer, calming everyone's hearts.
The military wives continue to live their ordinary lives, doing what they should do.
Especially Xu Zijin, who sleeps until he wakes up naturally every day, has whatever he wants to eat, and lives a very happy life.
She even found that carrying quadruplets was more comfortable than carrying just one.
Lu Hanzhou is very concerned about the situation at home, and he would find a way to call home every week. Currently, the special operations detachment he leads is undergoing basic training at the military district's training base.
That morning, after Xu Zijin finished his breakfast and was about to go out for a walk, the phone rang.
"Brother Xiong? Why are you calling? Is there something wrong?"
The person on the other end of the phone was Xiong Mazi.
"Xu sister, a friend from afar wants to meet you, are you free?"
Friends from afar?
How far?
Xu Zijin's face couldn't help but twitch a few times: "Brother Xiong, you know my identity."
"Understood, understood. Don't worry, there will be absolutely no problem."
"First, a friend wants to meet you, and second, I want to talk to you about architecture."
Xiong Mazi quickly explained.
The news of the crackdown has already leaked out, and Xu Zijin thought that Xiong Mazi should also know about this.
Accompanied by Lu's mother, she went to the city.
He settled Lu Ma in Zhu Xiaolian's shop, told her that he had something to do, and then went to Xiong Mazi's place.
"Little sister Xu, my brother is waiting for you in the house."
As soon as I arrived at the door, Gangzi was already waiting there.
"Thank you, Brother Gangzi."
"You're welcome. We're friends, let's not talk about this."
"I came to you today because a friend from afar wants to see you. Come in quickly."
ah?
Friends from afar?
Who could it be?
Xu Zijin was a little curious...
