Ye Tao handed him chopsticks and said mysteriously, "You definitely don't know who she is?"
Yang Zhitao took the chopsticks and asked disapprovingly, "Isn't she the wife of Vice Colonel Gu? Who else could it be?"
Yang Erhu had already grabbed the sugar triangle and took a bite, sucking the brown sugar inside, and raised his hand: "I know, it's Aunt Qi."
Yang Zhitao was stunned for a moment. He remembered that Ye Tao had written to him and said that their new neighbor's surname was Qi.
"Could it be that Deputy Captain Gu's wife is our new neighbor?"
"Yes, when they moved here, Mengmeng and Gu Guizhi had just gotten married. I didn't expect that when we met again, you and Gu Guizhi would be partners." Ye Tao smiled and shook her head, "It seems that we are really destined to be together."
Yang Zhitao didn't say anything. He was a few years older than Gu Guizhi, and now he was Gu Guizhi's partner. In addition, he was transferred from the Beijing Military Region, so he felt a little uncomfortable.
Ye Tao didn't know this and was still speaking her mind: "I didn't expect Sister Qi to be here. I'll have someone I can talk to in the future."
Yang Zhitao did not comment. He and Gu Guizhi were partners, so it was normal for family members to be close.
"I guess I will stay in the Hebei Provincial Military Region for a long time. I have already inquired about the schools here. I have taken a day off tomorrow and will take Dahu and Erhu to visit the school." Yang Zhitao talked about the arrangements for the two children.
Ye Tao also felt that Yang Dahu and Yang Erhu were old enough to go to school. She glanced at the two brothers and nodded.
Yang Erhu paused for a moment and looked at Yang Dahu, who was grinning happily: "Dad, I've wanted to go to school for a long time."
Yang Zhitao happily picked up a piece of cucumber for Yang Dahu and said, "Dahu, study hard when you get to school."
Yang Dahu nodded heavily, and Yang Erhu took a big bite of the candy triangle. He didn't want to go to school, but seeing his father's expression, he didn't dare to say it for fear of being beaten.
The Yang family also got a two-bedroom house, which was smaller than Qi Zhijun's. After putting a table in the living room, there was only an aisle left. The Yang Dahu and his brother slept in the smaller room. Yang Zhijun planned to separate a small room from the larger room in two days, and let Yang Tiantian live there by herself when she grew up a little.
Now, Yang Tiantian still lives with the couple.
The couple hadn't seen each other for a long time, and the next morning, Ye Tao almost got up late.
Yang Tiantian squatted at the head of the bed, looked at Ye Tao, pouted and said, "Mom, you got up late today."
Ye Tao blushed and quickly got dressed and got up. She led Yang Tiantian out of the house, but she didn't see Yang Zhitao and his two sons. She lowered her head and asked, "Tiantian, where are your father and brother?"
"Dad takes my brother to school. Mom, I want to go to school too." Yang Tiantian was very unhappy.
She also wanted to go with her father and brother, but her father said she was too young and the school would not accept her.
Ye Tao didn't know what Yang Tiantian was thinking, so she lowered her head and coaxed her, "When our Tiantian is a little older, she can go to school."
"I want to go now." Yang Tiantian emphasized the word "now".
Ye Tao had already walked to the kitchen, took out the porridge and steamed buns from the pot, and asked her again: "Tiantian, have you had breakfast?"
"I ate it. Dad bought it for me."
Ye Tao broke off a piece of steamed bun and gave it to Yang Tiantian to eat. Yang Tiantian shook her head. She wanted to go to school now and didn't want to eat the steamed bun.
Ye Tao ignored her. After dinner, she washed the clothes she had taken off yesterday and cleaned the house. Then she saw Yang Tiantian standing beside her with a pouting mouth, looking like she was about to cry.
"Tiantian, what's wrong?"
"I want to go to school too." Yang Tiantian hasn't forgotten about going to school.
Ye Tao took out a piece of candy to coax her, but Yang Tiantian ate the candy and was still thinking about going to school.
"How about I take you to Aunt Qi's house to play?" Ye Tao packed up a few snacks she brought from home and wrapped them in oil paper.
"Aunt Qi?" Yang Tiantian tilted her head and thought for a moment before asking, "Aunt Qi who gave me the candy."
Ye Tao didn't expect that after such a long time, Yang Tiantian still remembered Qi Mengmeng. She smiled and nodded: "Yes, it's Aunt Qi who gave me candy. I'll take you to her house to play."
The unhappiness on Yang Tiantian's face faded away, and she pulled Ye Tao to go to Qi Mengmeng's house.
Ye Tao asked around in the staff quarters before arriving at Qi Mengmeng's house. Qi Mengmeng was knitting a sweater, this time it was black, for Qi Zhijun.
When Qi Mengmeng saw Ye Tao bringing Yang Tiantian over, she happily poured water for them and gave Yang Tiantian some White Rabbit milk candy.
"Tiantian, do you still remember Aunt Qi?"
"Remember, Aunt Qi gave me some candy." Yang Tiantian replied with a smile.
Ye Tao put the snacks on the table and pouted at Yang Tiantian: "When I mentioned Aunt Qi just now, she said it was Aunt Qi who gave her the candy, and urged me to come quickly."
"I also remember our little Sweetie." Qi Mengmeng tapped Yang Tiantian's nose.
Yang Tiantian chuckled at the two of them and ran to see the cabbages planted by Qi Mengmeng.
"I didn't expect Mengmeng could grow vegetables. The vegetables in the yard look well grown." Ye Tao didn't expect Qi Mengmeng could grow vegetables.
"To be honest, these vegetables were grown for me by Sister Li next door. Otherwise, I wouldn't know how to grow vegetables." Qi Mengmeng smiled and waved her hands, then asked about Qi Huilan's situation.
Ye Tao didn't interact much with Qi Huilan, but every time she saw Qi Huilan, she had a smile on her face, and she looked a little fatter than when they first moved there.
Qi Mengmeng nodded. It seemed that Qi Huilan was living a good life now.
She asked about Meng Laosi's situation again. Ye Tao was even less familiar with Meng Laosi, but she saw Meng Laosi coming out to bask in the sun every day, and judging from his mental state, he seemed to be in good health.
Qi Mengmeng felt much more relieved. She picked up the sweater at hand and continued knitting, wondering whether she should knit a sweater for Meng Laosi.
But thinking that Grandpa Jiang and Zhang Meiling had not yet knitted their sweaters, she nipped the idea in the bud, otherwise, she would become a tool for knitting sweaters.
Ye Tao looked at the yarn in Qi Mengmeng's hand and asked casually, "What is the color of this yarn? Is it knitted for Deputy Captain Gu?"
"No, I knit it for my dad."
"Your father? Uncle Liu?" Ye Tao asked hesitantly. She knew that Qi Huilan and Liu Dajiang had already obtained their marriage certificate.
"It's not Uncle Liu, it's my biological father. My biological father is Qi Zhijun, the commander of the Third Regiment." Qi Mengmeng said it very naturally. Anyway, Ye Tao lived in the staff housing compound and would know about this sooner or later.
Ye Tao didn't expect that Qi Mengmeng's biological father was also in the army. So it seemed that Qi Huilan and Qi Zhijun were divorced? But how could she remember that Qi Huilan moved next door to her house after the divorce?
She told Qi Mengmeng that they were neighbors, but they had not been together for long, so she did not ask this question out loud.
The mother and daughter stayed with Qi Mengmeng for more than an hour and left only when it was almost time to cook.
Qi Mengmeng sent the two of them to the door and promised to take Ye Tao for a walk in the staff quarters in the afternoon.
At this time, Li Pandi came out of her house wearing new clothes and greeted Qi Mengmeng: "Hello, Sister Mengmeng, I'm going to my boyfriend's house."
