Zhao Junniang thought to herself: "You think you can compare to Lü Hui? Lü Hui's grandfather was a commander, your grandfather was just a worker: 'Who is Nao Nao?'"
"Nao Nao is my classmate."
"Your classmate?" Zhao Jun's mother hung her bag on the wall. She knew all of Zhao Jun's classmates: "Is he new?"
"Um."
Zhao Junniang immediately thought of Xiaoman. Xiaoman had arrived in a horse-drawn carriage, accompanied by two old men and three sets of twins. At first, everyone thought she was a bad stepmother. Therefore, Zhao Junniang had a particularly deep impression of Xiaoman: "You can't eat at other people's houses."
"Why?"
“Because…” He’s the deputy division commander, and your father is the regimental commander. “You can’t go to someone’s house to eat just because their food is delicious. Okay, Mom’s going to cook now.”
"Mom, Lu Hui said that Nao Nao's family's food is delicious."
"We still can't go."
"Mother, I want to go."
"You can't go. If you dare go, I'll have your dad beat you up. Go do your homework."
"My dad always beats me up. Hmph!"
Zhao Jun's mother glared at Zhao Jun: "Are you going or not? If you don't go, I'll really have your dad beat you up."
Zhao Jun snorted again before going to do his homework.
On the other side, after finishing their meal, Naonao and Tengteng led their younger siblings to take the bowls to the kitchen. This time, it was Tengteng and Youyou's turn to wash the dishes. Since the older sister and younger brother were still small, Xiaoman didn't assign them any.
Lu Hui walked up to Xiaoman and asked, "Aunt Xiaoman, what am I doing?"
"You and Nao Nao go do your homework."
Lü Hui didn't want to do his homework. "Aunt Xiaoman, I'll play with my younger brother and sister instead."
Xiaoman smiled. Commander Lü and his wife probably invited their grandson to their house for more than just meals: "It's a rule in our family that he can only play after finishing his homework."
Lu Hui hesitated for a moment. In the end, he decided that the taste was more important: "Okay."
After Nao Nao and Lü Hui went to do their homework, Zuo Zuo took her younger siblings to play in the yard.
Commander Miao and his wife chatted with Xiaoman and Han Bin for a while before saying goodbye.
When he got home, Commander Miao asked Sister Du, "Why did you go to Deputy Commander Han's house?"
"I came back early today, didn't I? I..." Sister Du recounted what had happened.
After hearing this, Commander Miao laughed and said, "Originally, they were going to come and visit you. Now, you've gone and visited them yourself."
"I thought they treated their sons like treasures and their daughters like trash."
"Luckily you didn't just rush in. This afternoon, Commander Lü brought his men..."
After Commander Miao finished speaking, Sister Du sighed, "Well, Grandma Lü is just like me. She could have stayed home waiting for Xiaoman to come and visit. Now she's gone to visit Xiaoman. But her food is really delicious. Also, her daughter is really strange; she likes to sit on stones."
"Kids can play with a leaf for ages if you give them a piece of paper."
"That's true."
Meanwhile, Grandma Lü had gone to the door several times to ask, "Old man, why hasn't Huihui come back yet?"
Commander Lü: "The Han family has many children, so Huihui must be playing with the Han family's children."
"Should I go take a look?"
"No need, he'll come back when he's tired of playing."
On the other side, Lü Hui scratched his head: "Nao Nao, how do we do this?"
Nao Nao looked at him and said, "Commander, how come you don't even know this?"
"I...I don't like studying."
Nao Nao looked at Lü Hui and said, "Then you might not be able to become a real commander in the future."
"Why? My grandfather didn't have much schooling either."
"Times change."
Lü Hui didn't understand: "What do you mean? I don't understand."
Tengteng came back after washing the dishes and overheard: "Naonao means things will be different now. Your grandfather didn't study much but he became a commander. If you don't study hard, you won't become a real commander."
"Why could my grandfather become one but I couldn't?"
Tengteng: "Back in your grandfather's time, most people didn't go to school. Now, all the kids in our military region go to school. You want to be a commander if you don't study hard? You're in for a tough time."
After finishing her homework, Xiaoman asked Hanbin to take Lü Hui back home.
The old lady saw that her grandson was sullen and assumed he was unhappy at Xiaoman's house: "Huihui, do you not like eating at your Aunt Xiaoman's house anymore?"
"no."
"Then why aren't you happy?"
"I……"
Commander Lü was also puzzled: "Did they have a conflict with Naonao and Tengteng?"
"No."
"Then why are you keeping such a long face?"
Lu Hui looked at Commander Lu and asked, "Grandpa, if I don't study hard, will I never become a real commander?"
The old lady was about to say that Huihui was so smart he would definitely become a real commander when Commander Lü interrupted, "That's right. If you don't study hard, you won't become a real commander in the future."
"But... I don't like studying."
Commander Lü: "Then you can only be a regimental commander at most in the future."
"I want to be the commander."
Commander Lü looked at Lü Hui and said, "Then you'd better study hard."
"Then...then I'm going to sleep."
Commander Lü: "Go."
After Lü Hui left, Commander Lü looked at the old lady and said, "See, it's effective after just one day, isn't it?"
The old lady found it strange: "You've said this before, haven't you?"
“I’m an adult. He might not take what I say to heart. Nao Nao and Tengteng are children, and Hui Hui is also a child. Hui Hui will definitely think more about what Nao Nao and Tengteng say.”
"You mean Nao Nao and Tengteng said these words?"
"Um."
"Why would they tell Huihui these things?"
"Maybe Huihui said he wants to be a commander when he grows up, and people say that if you want to be a commander, you have to study hard. Alright, let's go take a break."
"Okay. Then I'll go and deliver some more things to Xiaoman tomorrow."
"OK."
The next morning, Lü Hui got up early, put on his schoolbag, and went to Xiaoman's house. But Naonao, Tengteng, and the others weren't there. Even Xiaohei and Laolang weren't there.
Finally, Lü Hui found Lao Guo in the kitchen: "Grandpa Guo, where did Aunt Xiaoman and Naonao go?"
Old Guo was steaming buns: "Going to exercise."
Where did they go to exercise?
"have no idea."
"Grandpa Guo, do the kids exercise every day?"
"Um."
A little while later, Xiaoman and Hanbin returned with the children. Xiaohei and Laolang followed behind.
As soon as the older sister entered the door, she hugged Han Bin's leg: "Dad, we're home."
Han Bin picked his sister up from the ground.
The older sister immediately leaned against Han Bin: "Dad, I'm going to sleep a little longer."
"Okay. Dad will call you in a bit."
"good."
Hearing the noise, Lü Hui came out of the kitchen: "Aunt Xiaoman, Uncle Han, you're back?"
Xiaoman smiled and said, "Mm."
Han Bin: "Huihui, what delicious food did your Grandpa Guo make for us this morning?"
"Steamed buns and porridge. Uncle Han, when did you go out?"
"One hour ago."
Lu Hui's eyes widened in surprise: "So early?!"
"Um."
My sister is already asleep.
Han Bin sat down on a chair with his sister in his arms. "Do you want to train with us?" Han Bin had asked Lao Shang after Xiao Man agreed to let Lü Hui come to their house for dinner. Lao Shang said that Lü Hui was a good-natured boy. Han Bin had also asked Xiao Man, and Xiao Man said that she could train with Lü Hui.
Lu Hui didn't want to get up early. But... Lu Hui looked at his younger brother, who was so little, and he was going along too. "Okay."
"Then come early tomorrow. We'll leave if you're late."
"good."
The next day, Lü Hui arrived early.
After breakfast on Sunday, Xiaoman asked Naonao, Tengteng, and Lü Hui to take Zuozuo, Youyou, their older sister, and younger brother out to play.
After they went outside, Lü Hui asked Nao Nao and Tengteng, "There's a farm around here, have you ever been there?"
Nao Nao: "No."
Lü Hui: "Then let's go to the farm to play."
Nao Nao: "Okay."
Lu Hui went to Zhao Jun's house again, called Zhao Jun over, and then took Nao Nao and the others to the farm.
As soon as they arrived at the farm, Lü Hui introduced Nao Nao and the others to what this and that was.
In the field, an old woman was working. Hearing Lü Hui shout "Nao Nao!", she looked up. Upon seeing who it was, the old woman dropped her hoe and rushed towards Nao Nao.
