Lin Qingqing wanted to refuse, but when she saw the tomatoes and eggplants in the basket, her eyes lit up and she couldn't bear to refuse: "Mother Ji Yang is so polite." She took the basket, "Wait a minute, I made tofu pancakes here, you can try it too." After all, they were neighbors, so she didn't need to be so polite.
Xu Huijuan was dumbfounded. This Lin Qingqing was really rude. She brought vegetables over, so she should be polite, right? So this person is really different from the Lin Qingqing she knew in her last life. Except... they look the same.
In the time she was distracted, Lin Qingqing had already carried the basket to the kitchen, and it was too late for Xu Huijuan to refuse again.
When Lin Qingqing came to the hall again, she was still carrying the basket that Xu Huijuan used to hold the dishes, but there was a plate in the basket with five tofu pancakes on it. The tomatoes and eggplants inside were naturally taken out by Lin Qingqing: "Mother Ji Yang, I'll give you the basket, and you can take the pancakes back to try them. Don't be polite with me, I still have to thank Ji Yang for what happened today." Maybe she went to the vegetable market too late today, so she didn't see the tomatoes and eggplants, otherwise she would have bought them herself.
Xu Huijuan wanted to refuse, but since they were already prepared, she would seem too petty if she refused, so she could only accept: "Thank you so much, Comrade Lin. I'll go back first." Hey, she clearly wanted to distance herself from Lin Qingqing so as not to implicate herself, but why did she keep sending gifts to him? Xu Huijuan was speechless.
Before Xu Huijuan left, she also reminded Ji Yang: "Ji Yang, you must behave well when you eat at your aunt's house. Don't be willful and naughty."
Ji Yang said happily: "I know." As a child, he likes lively places the most. He is the only child at home, so he feels lonely when eating. Now he is eating with his good friend, and Ji Yang is very happy.
Xu Huijuan had just left, and Lin Qingqing didn't need to teach the children to count, because the cabbage and fried tofu soup was already ready. Cabbage is cooked quickly, and fried tofu is a cooked food, so it's naturally fast.
"Children, sit down, we are going to prepare for dinner." Lin Qingqing reminded them.
Lu Haici heard it and said, "Mom, I'll help you." His little body had already got down from the stool.
Children always follow suit. When Ji Yang heard Lu Haici say this, he also slid down from the stool and said, "Auntie, I'll help you too."
Lin Qingqing held Ji Yang and said, "Haici will help mom, Ji Yang doesn't need to, you are a guest, guests don't need to help with work."
Ji Yang heard it and hurriedly sat down, his legs still shaking. It was so good not to have to do any work. He liked being a guest so much.
When Lu Haici heard what his mother said, he was also happy. He followed Lin Qingqing happily.
Lin Qingqing asked Lu Haici to serve the tofu pancakes. The pancakes were already warm, so the child would not get burned holding them. Excluding the one Lu Haici ate, there were 21 tofu pancakes in total. Xu Huijuan was given 5, and there were 16 left. She put 3 tofu pancakes in each small bowl. Because the children could still drink soup, she was afraid that they would eat too much, so she only put three for them. She also put three for herself, and there were 7 left.
"Wow..." When Lu Haici brought the tofu pancakes to the table, Ji Yang saw the beautiful tofu pancakes in the small bowl and couldn't help but take a bite first. "Delicious, Lu Haici, your mother's egg fried rice is delicious, and this pancake is also delicious."
Lu Haici said proudly: "My mother's cooking is the best, twice as delicious."
Ji Yang said: "Well, twice as delicious, my mother's cooking... my mother's cooking is not twice as delicious." It's not that Xu Huijuan's cooking is not delicious, but Xu Huijuan's cooking is a dish that can be seen in this era, and children like rare things.
Lin Qingqing came in with the soup, and heard the two children's childish talk, and smiled: "Then Ji Yang can come often to eat in the future." How much can a little kid eat? With the conditions of the Lu family, it is naturally not a problem. Moreover, she could see that Lu Haici had no other friends, so Lin Qingqing would naturally pay extra attention to his only friend, Ji Yang.
When Lu Haici heard this, the smile on his face slowly faded.
"Really?" Ji Yang looked at Lin Qingqing expectantly.
"Of course, you are Haici's good friend, of course it's okay." Lin Qingqing said.
At the same time, the Qin family.
Commander Qin is over 50 years old this year. He started to serve in the army when he was in his teens. He didn't return home until he was 22 years old, that is, he only returned home once in 30 years. Because the national situation was not good, he had been away all the time. His parents were worried that he would never come back, so after he returned home after more than ten years, they immediately showed her a target. Although he was an "old young man" and it was not easy to find a wife, he was a soldier, had meritorious service, and had money in his hands, so it was not difficult for him to find a wife. Under the arrangement of his family, he found a young and beautiful girl, Zhang Hongping. Zhang Hongping was only 16 years old at the time, and the two were 6 years apart. Therefore, Commander Qin loved this wife very much, which was probably the case for "old husbands and young wives".
Commander Qin lived in his hometown for a few days and went to the army again. He stayed there for several years until he was 29 years old and returned home. At that time, the first two twin sons were already 7 years old.
The second year after returning home, that is, in 1938, Commander Qin's third son was born. For Commander Qin, this was considered a son in his old age, so he and Zhang Hongping were particularly partial to this son.
In 1955, Zhang Hongping brought her 18-year-old son to join the army. As for her two 25-year-old sons, they had already started families in the countryside and stayed in the countryside to be filial to their grandparents.
Zhang Hongping joined the army early and can be said to be one of the earliest military wives. She has lived in this unit for 8 years, so she is very confident and qualified. Moreover, she found a job for her youngest son in the canteen of the unit. This is also the reason why she brought her youngest son to join the army that year. Otherwise, what would an 18-year-old boy do?
Because of the national situation at the time, the first two sons did not have much education and were ordinary rural men. But when the youngest son grew up, it happened to be after the founding of the People's Republic of China, so Zhang Hongping still paid special attention to the cultivation of the youngest son. However, the first two sons were ordinary men in the countryside. Because their father was a teacher, one of them became a team leader and the other worked in the supply and marketing cooperative in the town. They lived a good life
. For Zhang Hongping, her life was already the best, except that the first two sons gave birth to six granddaughters, which made her feel ashamed. So later, she married Yang Mailian's daughter for her youngest son.
Yang Mailian's first child was a daughter, and then she gave birth to three sons in succession. Therefore, Yang Mailian also loved her eldest daughter, thinking that the eldest daughter would bring her good luck and the three sons were brought by the eldest daughter.
This feudal idea was recognized by Zhang Hongping, and she also thought so, so the two hit it off and became in-laws.
Zhang Hongping and Yang Mailian also went to the county market today, so when the kindergarten came to call the parents, they were not there. When she came back from the county, she learned about Qin Ming's situation and saw his wounds, and she was so angry that her heart ached.
"Look at Xiao Ming's arm, what kind of person is this?" When Teacher Qin came back during dinner, Zhang Hongping lifted up her grandson's arm to show Teacher Qin, "The little brat from Lu Cheng's family is too vicious." The skin was broken, and the wound had been treated. It should have been treated by Teacher Qian, but in Teacher Qian's opinion, such wounds did not need to go to the clinic, so no medicine was applied on the wound, and therefore, some blood was coagulated.
"Grandma, Lu Haici was also beaten by me." Qin Ming leaned into Zhang Hongping's arms and said unyieldingly, "I also bit Ji Yang, and Ji Yang bled from my bite." This was a boastful statement. Compared with Lu Haici, he hated Ji Yang more.
Qin Ming didn't know that this was probably... the natural dislike between the villain and the hero.
Commander Qin looked at the wound and said indifferently: "What's this? When I was fighting, bullets pierced my body, but I didn't frown. Besides, if a man can't stand this little injury, how can he have a great future?" Although he also loves his grandson, after all, he had a grandson after six granddaughters, but his philosophy is different from that of his wife. A man should be upright. If he cries and sheds tears over a little injury, how can he protect the country in the future? How can he protect his family? "When he becomes a soldier and goes to the battlefield, he will face greater dangers, so he has to adapt to the minor injuries and pains now."
Qin Ming immediately said, "I will be like grandpa in the future and beat the bad guys until they cry."
"Pooh, pooh, pooh..." Zhang Hongping said, "Xiao Ming will definitely not be a soldier when he grows up." She only has one grandson, and she would never let him go to the army. What if something happens?
As a soldier, Commander Qin certainly hopes that his children and grandchildren can inherit him. He has three sons, but the first two are too old and there is no hope. After the youngest son came to the army, he made special arrangements, but he failed the physical examination. So he pinned his hopes on his grandson. Hearing his wife say this, he didn't object. Anyway, when his grandson grows up, he will just let him have a check-up. "Let's talk about it when he grows up."
Zhang Hongping also knew his character and didn't continue the topic. However, she had to give an explanation for her grandson's injury: "I will take Xiao Ming to Lu's house after dinner. He is so vicious at such a young age. He will definitely harm others in the future."
Commander Qin said kindly: "It's not worth making a fuss about such a small matter. Lu Cheng will be selected as a full regiment commander soon, so don't worry about it."
When Zhang Hongping heard that Lu Cheng was promoted to regiment commander, she shouted: "What? So fast? He was promoted to deputy regiment commander at the beginning of the year before last, which is only two and a half years. Don't you select for promotion every three years?" Having been with the army for so many years, she still had some understanding of this.
Teacher Qin did not elaborate, only saying: "It is possible, but it has not been decided yet."
Zhang Hongping heard this and a calculation flashed in her eyes.
