"Promoted?!" Shen Zhihuan said cautiously.

Su Ziyu smiled and nodded, his fingertips with thin calluses gently stroking his young wife's soft hands as if addicted.

"The official letter of promotion just came this morning, so I have to hurry up and finish it in the next two days so that I can handle the handover."

While speaking, Su Ziyu even pointed his lips towards the desk.

Shen Zhihuan glanced at the pile of documents and observed a minute of silence in her heart for her Captain Su.

When Zhang Fengxia heard that the second boy had been promoted, she put aside her last bit of anxiety.

"How about you ask Xiao Liu to help you clean up the house in the staff quarters later. You can rest here for the next two days so you don't have to run back and forth." Shen Zhihuan thought about it.

The 82nd Army is quite far from Peking University, and it takes at least an hour to go back and forth.

Living here, he can go to bed at least half an hour earlier at night and sleep half an hour longer in the morning.

"Wife, I just need to work on these documents during the day." Su Ziyu gently scratched the palm of his wife's hand.

The meaning is very clear, no matter how urgent the matter is, it will not prevent him from going home to hug his wife in the evening.

As someone who has been through this, how could Zhang Fengxia not understand the meaning behind the second boy's words?

"Then when will you come back tonight?" Fearing that she would delay the second boy's work, Zhang Fengxia stood up and prepared to help her second daughter-in-law leave.

She came just to see the second boy. Knowing that he was fine and had been promoted, she felt relieved.

"Mom, there is dinner in the army. Don't wait for me to eat. I will go back after I finish the work at hand." Su Ziyu said hurriedly.

How could he not know what kind of personality his own mother has? !

If he said he would go back at 10 o'clock in the evening, his mother would wait until 10 o'clock with an empty stomach.

"Then I'll leave you a bowl of soup. Remember to drink it in the evening." Zhang Fengxia reminded.

"Yeah!" Su Ziyu nodded and sent the two downstairs.

The jeep was already waiting downstairs. He helped his young wife into the car. After the car disappeared at the gate, Su Ziyu turned around and prepared to go upstairs.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he turned around, the man leaning against the stairs joked, "I thought Commander Su was going to stand there as a wife-watching rock!"

We just separated in the morning, but he caught up with me in the afternoon.

How reluctant is this?!

There are so many couples in the family compound, but I have never seen a couple as affectionate as they are.

Day by day...

Who are you greedy for? !

"If you have nothing to do, take some documents from my office and deal with them." Su Ziyu glanced at Yu Jingyan and strode upstairs.

"I still have a lot to do!" Yu Jingyan snorted coldly.

What responded to him was the sound of Su Ziyu's footsteps gradually fading away.

When Shen Zhihuan and Zhang Fengxia returned, a bunch of aunts and uncles, young girls and wives gathered at the door of Old Lady Wang's house. They didn't know what they said was so funny, but everyone was laughing so hard.

Seeing Zhang Fengxia helping Shen Zhihuan get out of the jeep, Old Lady Wang walked over with a smile.

The group of aunts and uncles, young girls and wives behind it also looked over curiously.

"Sister, are you okay?" Old Mrs. Wang looked at Zhang Fengxia.

"It's okay. The doctor said I've been sitting on the train for too long and haven't recovered yet. He said I'll be fine after a few more days of rest." Zhang Fengxia, who was in high spirits due to the good news, looked several years younger. There was no trace of the anxiety and fear she had before.

"Sister Wang, you guys chat, we'll go back first."

"It's still early, let's chat for a while." Old Mrs. Wang said with a smile.

When the courtyard door was closed, all the aunts and uncles, young girls and wives curled their lips in unison.

"Isn't it just a pregnancy? What's the big deal? Just act like everyone has been pregnant before."

"I'm not even showing my pregnancy, so why should I be so tired?"

"Yes! Look at what happened just now. She needed help to get out of the car, just like the Queen getting out of the sedan chair. I just don't know if she is pregnant with a dragon seed. If she gives birth to a girl in the future, I wonder how she will still be so cocky." Xia Mei's lips were about to turn red.

Petty!

Having a baby is like having a nugget of gold.

Not afraid of being laughed at.

"Who told me to have two capable grandfathers!" Old Mrs. Wang sneered.

There should be two grandfathers standing behind her daughter-in-law, just to set up a shrine to worship her.

"Yeah, other people go out by car, unlike us, who just walk around." A middle-aged woman agreed with a smile.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Even if she gave birth to a girl, she would be a girl who could ride in a car.

How can ordinary people like them compare? !

Zhang Fengxia went back to the next courtyard, and a tired Shen Zhihuan went into the resort, took a quick shower, and went to bed to catch up on some sleep.

When I opened my eyes again, the street lights were on.

The dusk was like a translucent veil, covering everything in a gray manner.

As soon as Shen Zhihuan walked to the edge of the courtyard wall, he heard the slightly dry and rough voice of Old Lady Wang.

"Big sister, what does your second son do in the 82nd Army?"

Old Mrs. Wang's youngest son only saw Old Man Shen and Old Man Chu, but did not see Su Ziyu. In addition, Shen Zhihuan did not have much contact with the neighbors, so apart from knowing that her surname was Shen, he knew very little else.

Although many people know that Mr. Shen recognized his three granddaughters and one grandson, most of them only know the general idea and not many people know the twists and turns involved.

Apart from a few old comrades who were close to Mr. Shen, it was the entire 82nd Army.

Even in the compound, only a few people who were good friends with Old Master Shen had seen Shen Zhihuan, while most of the others had only heard of him but had never seen him.

"I'm not too sure about that. I just know that he is in the 82nd Army." Zhang Fengxia responded absentmindedly, glancing at the half-closed gate from time to time.

Didn't the flour mill say that work would end at six? It was almost dark.

"Lili, go check what time it is now?" Zhang Fengxia looked at Su Lili who was playing ball with Xiao Qiping.

"Hey!" Su Lili threw the ball to Xiao Qiping and walked into the house.

After a moment.

"Seven o'clock." Su Lili turned off the lights and came out.

Zhang Fengxia looked up at the sky, then glanced at the half-closed courtyard door.

Isn’t it said that workers in factories in big cities all get off work on time?

Why haven't they come back yet? "Mom, Dad, big brother, and big sister-in-law haven't come back yet?" Shen Zhihuan glanced at the yard and the dark house.

"Not yet, Zhihuan, are you hungry? I'll get you a bowl of yam soup. Fill your stomach first, and I'll go cook right away." Zhang Fengxia stood up.

"Mom, I'm not hungry yet. I'll wait for Dad, Big Brother, and Big Sister-in-law..."

Before Shen Zhihuan could finish his words, the half-closed courtyard door was pushed open from the outside.
