Mother Lu looked at the time and said to Lu Xiaotang, "Go to the door and pick up Xiaoan and the others!"
The military compound is strictly controlled, and they cannot get in if no one answers the call.
Just as Lu Xiaotang was about to go out, Xiao Mo ran out and said, "Brother-in-law, wait for me, I'm going too."
Mother Lu pulled him aside and said, "Why are you going with me? You've been riding in the car for several days, aren't you tired?"
Xiao Mo pretended to be angry and said, "Huh, now you remember me! You don't need to care about me, go inside and kiss your grandchildren!" After saying that, he ran out with a smile.
Mother Lu laughed and scolded, "This stinky boy."
Then he smiled at Xu Ning and said, "Xiao Ning, let's go in."
Lu Xiaotang helped Xiao Mo put on his scarf and took him to the gate of the military area.
An aunt who knew Xiao Mo greeted him with a smile: "Hey, isn't this the eldest son of the old Lu family? When did you come back?"
Lu Xiaotang saw that it was Aunt Liu from Chief Qin's family and was about to say hello.
Xiao Mo spoke up, "Aunt Liu, I just came back. Did you go shopping for groceries?"
"I went to buy some vegetables. Isn't Chinese New Year coming soon? There were so many people buying vegetables. I waited in line for a long time before it was my turn."
Xiao Mo patted her hands and said, "It's so cold, and it's really painful to queue there.
Aunt, please go home and cook. We can have a good talk again in a couple of days. ”
Aunt Liu smiled and said, "Okay, I'll go back first. Come to my house when you're free!"
When she was about to leave, she glanced at Lu Xiaotang next to her and thought he looked familiar, so she asked Xiao Mo, "Xiao Mo, is this your relative?"
Xiao Mo introduced with a smile: "Aunt Liu, he is my brother-in-law."
"Oh, your brother-in-law is so handsome." After saying this, he realized that his brother-in-law is the son of the Lu family.
Seeing that the two of them had been talking for a long time before they remembered him, Lu Xiaotang smiled helplessly and said, "Aunt Liu, long time no see. Are you and Uncle Qin all right?"
"Hey, Xiaotang, I didn't recognize you. When did you come back?"
"Aunt Liu, I just came back today. The weather is cold. You should go back soon. I will visit you in two days."
Aunt Liu nodded and said, "Okay, I'll be leaving first. Come over to my house and play when you're free."
After she walked away, Xiao Mo asked, "Brother-in-law, do you know Aunt Liu too?"
Lu Xiaotang looked at him with amusement, "Xiao Mo, have you forgotten? Brother-in-law grew up here."
Xiao Mo slapped his head and said, "Oh yeah, I didn't even think of that. I must have been so confused while riding the train."
Seeing his quirky look, Lu Xiaotang said with a smile, "Let's go, your second brother and the others should be here soon."
Not long after the two of them walked away, a man in military uniform came up. Xiao Mo took two quick steps, stood there and saluted, "Hello, Comrade Sun."
The man also returned the salute and asked with a smile: "When did Xiao Mo come back?"
Lu Xiaotang didn't know this person. He smiled and nodded, then stood aside and listened to the two people talking.
"Comrade Sun, I won't keep you any longer, go home and have dinner!
Then he said to Lu Xiaotang: "Brother-in-law, let's go too!"
Lu Xiaotang held back his laughter and walked behind him. He saw him saluting and greeting the aunts and sisters, as if he was familiar with everyone.
He coughed lightly, suppressed the smile on his lips, and asked, "Xiao Mo, how did you get to know these people who greeted me just now?"
"Brother-in-law, I stayed here for a few days when I came back last time, so we got to know each other."
Xiao Mo felt very strange. Didn’t he tell his brother-in-law about it last time? When he lived here, he slept in his room.
"You've only lived here for a few days and you know so many people?"
"Yes! We can get to know each other just by saying hello. Besides, they are all comrades-in-arms of Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu.
We live in the same courtyard, so we see each other every day.
If we have good relations with them, they won't feel comfortable making things difficult for us when there are small problems in the future. ”
Lu Xiaotang was silent for a while after hearing his words. He knew that Xiao Mo was preparing for a rainy day. He grew up in such an environment and thought about everything more carefully than others.
"Xiao Mo is really smart. What you said is very right. But there is one more thing. If we want others not to embarrass us, we must become strong ourselves. From now on, you can have fun and make friends happily. Your brother-in-law will take care of the rest."
After saying that, he squatted there and said, "Come up, brother-in-law will carry you."
Xiao Mo said embarrassedly: "Brother-in-law, I'm so old now, and you still carry me on your back!"
Although she said she was sorry, her actions were very honest. She lay directly on Lu Xiaotang's back and hugged his neck.
