"Old woman, take the money."
Seeing that the old woman didn't move, the old man nudged her with his arm.
The old lady angrily took out five dollars and gave it to Jiang Yuzhu.
Since the old man said so, what else could she do?
"Dad, this is too..."
When the sister-in-law saw that Jiang Yuzhu was paid for cooking, she immediately became unhappy.
Why does she get all the good things?
"Sister-in-law, if you don't want to eat, tell me in advance, and I won't bring you any."
After saying that, he took the five dollars and left.
"Who... who said they don't want to eat anymore? Why shouldn't I eat? I paid for it!"
"Alright, let's eat quickly, we have to go to work soon."
Everyone lowered their heads to eat.
Naturally, some are happy and some are sad.
Jiang Yuzhu happily took the five dollars, which was the proof of her victory.
This is a bargain for them.
She really put in the effort. Cooking must be tiring.
Jiang Yuzhu's side won a big victory.
Xu Lei finally got off the train.
But it was still a long way to the camp.
It was already midnight, so there was no car available.
Xu Lei could only walk back with his luggage.
But when I think about spending half a day longer with my wife, I don’t regret it at all.
I don’t know if she was already asleep at this time, or if she had tucked herself in under the quilt.
This time, no one covered her with a blanket.
When I get there, I will write her a letter to remind her to sleep well and cover herself tightly with the quilt to avoid catching a cold.
Thinking of his wife, Xu Lei didn't feel tired at all.
He couldn't bear to finish the steamed buns and egg-filled pancakes in his bag.
How come his wife is so amazing and cooks such delicious food?
"Xu Lei!"
Xu Lei heard someone calling his name and immediately turned around to see who it was.
The car approaches.
"It's you, kid!"
Lu Hongming is the one who caught the fugitive with Xu Lei.
The two have a good relationship.
"Why did you come back so late? Were you so immersed in the land of pleasure that you couldn't get out?"
Everyone knows that Xu Lei has gotten married.
This time he was given an extra ten days of vacation just to allow him to resolve his personal problems.
After finally getting married, the groom was called away on the wedding night, so naturally he had to make up for it.
"screw you!"
"It's just right that I don't have to walk back." Xu Lei threw his luggage into the car and climbed in.
"I think I shouldn't have picked you up. I should have let you walk back. You look so happy, why am I so angry?"
Xu Lei looked like he was in a very good mood.
Her complexion was rosy and shiny, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.
This guy is usually very serious.
Xu Lei punched Lu Hongming, "Thanks, brother!"
"Just a verbal thank you, no actual action?"
"I've been hanging around for two days straight. Yesterday I went to the train station and waited, but didn't see anyone. I went again today, but still no one was there. I didn't hear you say you were postponing your vacation, so it's a good thing I drove around, otherwise you would have had to walk back."
Lu Hongming didn't expect that the person who usually returned to the team early would be the last to return this time.
It's really different.
After all, he is a married man.
"Here, I'll treat you to a midnight snack. My wife made some egg-filled pancakes, but I couldn't bear to finish them all, so I saved one for you."
Xu Lei took out a plate of egg-filled pancake.
"Oh, sister-in-law's cooking skills are pretty good. I can smell it already." Lu Hongming drove the car with one hand and grabbed the egg-filled pancake with the other hand and stuffed it into his mouth.
“Woo, delicious!”
"Wow, there's meat!"
It contains not only eggs and bok choy leaves, but also meat and sauce.
"You are so lucky, boy. When you bring your wife over, we will have a place to eat." Lu Hongming nodded while eating.
"You wish!"
The two of them bickered all the way and soon arrived at the camp.
"Captain Xu is back. I heard that he got married. Congratulations." The soldier at the gate saw Lu Hongming and Xu Lei coming back and quickly let them in.
"Thank you. These are the buns my wife made. I'll give you two two each." Xu Lei didn't have any candy, so he had to share the buns in his bag with the two of them.
"My sister-in-law made this, thank you, Captain Xu." The two men put the buns in their pockets, preparing to eat them when they returned home after their shift change.
"Oh, you still have a lot of stock, take it out quickly!" Lu Hongming saw that Xu Lei still had food in stock, so he immediately grabbed it.
Egg-filled pancakes are delicious, so the steamed buns must be good too.
"Don't be greedy. I've already given you egg-filled pancakes. Be careful not to eat too much!" Xu Lei ran with his luggage, fearing that Lu Hongming would snatch it away.
This was specially made by his wife for him, and it will be gone once he finishes eating it.
"I'll eat even if I die."
The two of them chased each other, you grabbing and I dodging.
Finally, Xu Lei had no choice but to give Lu Hongming two buns before he calmed down.
"Why didn't you give it to me earlier? Why did you have to make me do it? Don't be so stingy. Give me two more." Lu Hongming wanted to eat two more.
"Go, go, go, it's all yours!"
"If you want to eat, ask your wife to make it for you!" Xu Lei refused to give it to him, as he only had six left.
Save it for tomorrow morning.
Xu Lei and Lu Hongming arrived at the dormitory.
Their dormitories are next to each other, both are single dormitories.
The room is not big, with only a bed, a cabinet, a table and a chair.
Toiletries are placed in the washbasin under the bed.
"Xu Lei, I see that you are really different this time when you come back. It seems that your future sister-in-law must be extraordinary." Lu Hongming guessed that the person who could control Xu Lei must not be an ordinary girl.
You know, the young nurses in the art troupe and the medical team are all thinking about Xu Lei.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Let's go quickly. I need to rest." Xu Lei pushed the man out.
"Eh? Xu Lei, are you going to kill the donkey after it's done useful?"
After being pushed out, Lu Hongming reluctantly returned to his dormitory. After all, it was too late and he didn't want to disturb others' rest.
Xu Lei packed his luggage, changed his clothes, washed up, and lay down on the bed with a smile on his face.
No, he should take this opportunity to write a letter to his wife.
Tell her that you arrived safely.
Seeing the unopened letter on his desk, Xu Lei frowned.
Judging from the date, this was a letter his family sent him while he was on a mission.
It definitely wasn't written by his wife, as they had barely exchanged a single word at that time.
Xu Lei opened the letter and saw the contents, which were all complaints from his mother and sister about their dissatisfaction with his wife.
Fortunately, I understand my wife, otherwise...
But my wife was sick those days?
She must have just gotten married and is not used to everything, and he is not at home.
Thinking of this, I felt even more guilty.
I must be extra nice to my wife in the future.
