She sat up from the bed, trying to endure it again and again, but still couldn't bear it anymore. She sulked in silence until she arrived at the vegetable market, where she was distracted by buying vegetables and didn't feel so angry anymore.
From the moment Gu Huaijin called her to get up, he noticed that she seemed to be in a bad mood, and he looked up at her several times along the way.
"Let's buy some meat first, pork, chicken, fish. How many people are coming?" Song Zhi remembered that he still needed to confirm the number of people. It would be okay to buy too much, but it would be embarrassing if he bought too little.
"I invited the battalion commanders of four battalions, the division commander, the regiment commander and the deputy regiment commander." Seeing Song Zhi asking him a question, Gu Huaijin recounted the people he had invited.
Song Zhi calculated in his mind: there were seven people in total, including their wives, and there might be some unmarried people, but that would be less than 15 people. There might also be children, but children couldn't eat much, so two tables would be enough.
"Then let's just buy double, two fish, two chickens, and cut more meat!" Prepare the meat dishes first and then talk about other things. After all, things like meat are in short supply, and it will be difficult to buy them if they are sold out later.
Song Zhi arranged what to buy first, and the two of them went straight to the meat shop.
She also saw lotus root, green pepper, green beans, tofu, glutinous rice... Anyway, she bought everything she felt she needed.
Seeing Gu Huaijin carrying so many bags, Song Zhi felt a little embarrassed and reached out to take some, but Gu Huaijin dodged and stopped him, saying, "No, I'll take it."
Song Zhi was rejected by him, and his hand froze in place awkwardly, then quickly retracted. He was too lazy to help him, really like a dog biting Lu Dongbin, not knowing how to appreciate a good person.
After returning home with lots of bags, Song Zhi felt a headache looking at the chickens and fish.
"You should clean up these little animals first. I'll go wash the vegetables." Song Zhi pointed at the fish and chicken in Gu Huaijin's hands, and gave orders in an unquestionable and impolite tone.
"Okay, you wash the vegetables first, and I'll come over to help you when I'm done." Gu Huaijin nodded, obeyed Song Zhi's arrangements, and began to process the fish.
Song Zhi saw that he had swiftly put the fish into the basin and went to the kitchen to get a knife. He also picked up the vegetable basket, put it in the kitchen and started sorting the vegetables he bought today.
The two people each performed their duties and were busy in an orderly manner.
The courtyard is peaceful and quiet.
next door.
"Why hasn't your sister come back yet? Xiaoyu, go to the school and urge your sister." Zhao Yun had packed up, but he still hadn't seen his eldest daughter come back. He looked at the time and said anxiously that today was the day for his eldest daughter to see her, and if his eldest daughter was in a bad mood and didn't go, she would be in trouble.
"My sister said she will be back today, she will be back, you don't have to worry." Qin Yu sat calmly at the table doing homework, looking at his mother with an anxious look on her face, his attitude was unusually gentle.
Today is the day her sister comes to see her, everyone is in a good mood, and she doesn't want to mess things up.
"How can you not be anxious, kid? The appointment time is almost here, and there's no sign of her."
"No one has come back yet, where can you see him?" Qin Yu couldn't help but retorted.
"Okay, stop arguing. The boss knows what's important. Just wait." Captain Qin saw that the two were about to quarrel again, so he quickly stopped them and turned to his wife and said.
When Zhao Yun heard her husband say the same thing, she kept silent and lowered her head to busy herself with her housework.
After a while, the heavy wooden door was pushed open and Qin Xue walked in from outside.
Seeing his daughter's calm demeanor, Zhao Yun felt that his kindness was being taken for granted. He was so angry that he glared at his daughter fiercely.
"Oh, you still remember to come back!" Zhao Yun couldn't help but want to tease her, but she was interrupted by her husband as soon as she opened her mouth, "Ayun, stop talking. Our daughter is finally home. You two should pack up and go! We have to go to the next door for dinner this afternoon!"
Captain Qin also had a headache. His wife's personality always made her like to use words to tease the two daughters, especially the second daughter. Fortunately, the eldest daughter had a good personality and usually didn't bother with her.
He was really confused. His wife was always gentle and kind to others outside, so why was she like this at home?
Zhao Yun also knew that today was a good day and she shouldn't say anything unpleasant, but she felt pent up in her heart and always felt displeased when looking at her eldest daughter.
"Mom, let's go over there!" There is no overnight grudge between mother and daughter. Qin Xue spoke first to give her mother a way out.
"Why don't you change your clothes and dress up? Where are the clothes I made for you two days ago? Why don't you wear them?" Zhao Yun looked at her and frowned. He felt that the clothes she wore were no different from usual.
"..." Qin Xue was silent. The big cotton-padded jacket stuffed with cotton was just right to wear in cold weather. The sun was shining brightly, and she would be so hot that she would die wearing such a thick cotton-padded jacket.
"Mom, that's too thick. Do you want to kill my sister with heat?" Qin Yu couldn't stand it anymore and said.
"It's okay to wear it for a few hours. Forget it, I'll think of a way." You can't go out on a blind date wearing patched clothes. After all, their old man is the head of the group. It would be embarrassing! Maybe she also feels that she doesn't take this blind date seriously.
"Political Commissar Gu, Xiao Song, is busy!" Zhao Yun knocked on the door and saw two people busy washing vegetables and cleaning fish. She suddenly remembered that their family was going to have a dinner party today, but she was busy going to arrange a blind date for her daughter, so she would talk about it when she came back.
"Aunt, it's nothing. I just need to prepare the food for tonight. Please sit down, I'll pour you a cup of tea." After Song Zhi finished speaking, Gu Huaijin was about to walk into the house to get the teapot to pour tea.
Zhao Yun quickly stopped him and said with a smile, "Don't bother, I came to see Xiao Song for something." Then he turned around and whispered to Song Zhi, "Xiao Song, you look about the same size as Xiao Xue, could you lend her your clothes for a while?"
Song Zhi understood immediately after hearing this. Today was the day Qin Xue was going on a blind date. "Of course, auntie, what are you talking about? Come on, auntie, let's go into the house and pick out a suitable one for Xiaoxue."
Song Zhi took Aunt Zhao to the bedroom, opened the wardrobe, found some seasonal clothes, and let Aunt Zhao choose.
"Aunt, the weather is not very cold now, you can wear a coat or a thick cardigan. Xiaoxue has long legs, so I suggest you wear a cardigan, and pair it with tights or a skirt. But I'm worried that the pants won't fit, so let's wear a skirt. This is a sweater to wear under the jacket, take it with you. What do you think, aunt?" Song Zhi picked out two sets for Aunt Zhao to choose from.
In fact, she doesn't wear these clothes very often. If they are clothes she likes very much, she will not lend them to others. After all, she will feel a little uncomfortable with clothes that others have worn. However, after lending these clothes, she will probably not wear them again.
Zhao Yun was dazzled and didn't know what to choose.
