It's another bright morning.
The familiar horn sounded, and Xu Lei had already cleaned up the snow in and outside the yard.
It snowed all night last night, and the whole world was white, with snow everywhere.
After getting up, Xu Lei quickly cleared the aisle.
I’m worried that it will be inconvenient for my wife to travel.
"Captain Xu, you got up early enough. You've finished all the work."
"Good morning, sister-in-law."
Xu Lei saw the sisters-in-law in the family compound, nodded and continued working.
"Oh, look at Captain Xu, he loves his wife so much. The men in our courtyard should learn from him."
"That's right! Not only did they clear the snow from the yard, but they even cleared a path along our road."
"How lucky is Jiang Yuzhu to meet such a good man."
"Hey, I'm just born lucky. At this time, I'm afraid I haven't even woken up yet."
The more he talked, the angrier he became. Who in the family compound didn't envy Jiang Yuzhu?
When Jiang Yuzhu heard the sound of a shovel outside the house, she knew it was snowing and hurried out to see what was happening.
"Why did you come out? Come into the house!"
Xu Lei saw his wife coming out wearing a cotton coat and quickly pushed her back to the yard.
"I want to see the snow. It's snowing so heavily. It's so beautiful outside!" Jiang Yuzhu grabbed a handful of snow and held it in her hand, and it quickly melted into water.
"How cool it is!" The hot big hand directly wrapped the small hand in its hand.
He took off his coat and wrapped Jiang Yuzhu tightly.
"Hey, you two should stop making people angry so early in the morning. If you keep being so affectionate, everyone will protest!" Several battalion commanders passing by the door saw Xu Lei and his wife being so affectionate in the yard and couldn't help but interrupt them.
He was bombarded by his wife early in the morning, asking her how good Captain Xu was to his wife and why he didn't learn from him.
How can they be the same? They are a newlywed couple, and they are an old couple. Why bother about a sweet and long-lasting life?
"Let's go, Xu Lei!"
"You guys go ahead, I'll be right there."
Xu Lei smiled, brought his wife into the house, then got dressed and went to the training ground for morning exercises.
Jiang Yuzhu also took advantage of this time to quickly make breakfast.
The breakfast was very rich. I steamed a tray of frozen dumplings, cooked rice porridge, made cold shredded potatoes, fried two eggs, and served them with meat sauce.
After Xu Lei came back, the two had dinner together.
In this way, the two of them spent a few days happily together.
But time waits for no one.
"Wife, I'm leaving tomorrow. You should take good care of yourself at home. If you need help, ask the political commissar's sister-in-law for help."
"Well, go on your mission with peace of mind. Be sure to take care of yourself. I'll wait for you to come back, and then I'll make dumplings for you."
Jiang Yuzhu hugged Xu Lei reluctantly.
"Okay, go to bed. It's late."
Xu Lei fell asleep holding his wife in his arms.
When Jiang Yuzhu woke up the next day, the other side of the bed was already cold.
He left.
After Xu Lei left, Jiang Yuzhu continued to work. Because her belly was getting bigger, the political commissar asked her to rest at home and not go to work for the time being, considering that the roads were slippery in the snow.
When the canteen needs her, let her come over. Normally, she can just rest at home.
Before Xu Lei left, he gave his wife many instructions, fearing that she would be tired and asked him to take good care of her.
The political commissar knew that Jiang Yuzhu was the granddaughter of the Su family, so she naturally didn't need the money.
Jiang Yuzhu is pregnant and it's winter now, so don't bother her.
Let’s wait until spring.
Jiang Yuzhu was naturally happy. After she became pregnant, she became very lazy and didn't want to move around.
Besides, she has so much money in her hands now, and she feels much more secure.
"Yuzhu, how long has it been since you went out for a walk?" The political commissar's wife came over to see Jiang Yuzhu.
"Sister-in-law, you are here. Come in and sit down. I just made some egg cake. Please try it." Jiang Yuzhu was bored at home and tried to make egg cake. Unexpectedly, it was successful.
"Wow, you have such a dexterous hand, you can even do this?" The political commissar's wife came to see Jiang Yuzhu every few days.
Even without Xu Lei's instructions, the couple would still have to take care of it.
Jiang Yuzhu is young and pregnant. She is alone at home and it will be difficult if she is not taken care of.
"I was trying it too, but I didn't expect it to be successful. I made a lot, so sister-in-law, remember to take some away for Jiang Dong and Jiang Nan to try."
"No, you can't take it while eating it. You can keep it for yourself." These are made with expensive ingredients such as flour, eggs and sugar. She couldn't bear to take them for free.
"Sister-in-law, I'm just one person, how can I finish so much? This is my first time making it, so I didn't skim it off. If I make too much, the egg cake won't taste good if it's kept for too long."
Jiang Yuzhu knew that the political commissar and his wife took good care of her family, so giving them some things was nothing.
"Okay, then I'll thank his aunt on behalf of Jiang Dong and Jiang Nan."
Jiang Yuzhu said so, and since people gave it to her sincerely, she took it. Later, she asked the two boys to bring some pickled sour beans, as she remembered that Jiang Yuzhu liked them very much.
"By the way, Yuzhu, New Year's Day is coming up in a few days. The army is planning to get the families in the family compound together to make dumplings. They've also asked the art troupe to put together a bunch of performances so we can all celebrate the New Year together. Why don't you come too? Let's have some fun together."
The political commissar's wife didn't want Jiang Yuzhu to be bored at home alone, and she didn't want her to get bored anymore.
"Sister-in-law, I'm not going." Xu Lei hasn't come back for so long, so how could she have the heart to watch the show?
"Yuzhu, it's not good for you to stay at home all the time. Go out and walk around more often. Everyone should go and join in the fun. You're just sitting at home anyway."
"It's just right that you can use your expertise there. I'll leave the job of mixing the dumpling fillings to you. By then, this dumpling meal will definitely be the most delicious one ever."
Since the political commissar's wife said so, Jiang Yuzhu agreed with a smile.
Then go.
