"She used to be from Song City, which is about 800 to 900 kilometers away from here."
"Your son must be very outstanding, otherwise it would be difficult for your daughter to marry you from such a long distance."
"That brat in our family is not that outstanding. At most, he is just a little clever."
When saying this, Fang Mei's face was full of pride.
"When I saw you and your daughter-in-law getting along, you looked like real mother and daughter. I really envy you."
This was not just her mindless flattery, but what she felt from their interaction just now. Although the two did not have much dialogue, their every move showed a tacit understanding.
When Fangmei's voice changed, her daughter-in-law immediately poured her a glass of water. Later, the former seemed to notice that her hands were a little sore, and quickly took the little girl in her arms and held her.
It seems that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law know what the other wants to do just by looking at each other. Many times, even mother and daughter cannot do this.
"Xia Xia is a very sensible person, very hardworking, and very respectful to us old couple. After marrying into our family, she is a member of our family, so we should treat her well."
The two chatted casually as the aroma wafted from the kitchen.
When the food was almost ready, the sound of powerful footsteps came from the door.
"Just by listening to the footsteps, I knew that our old man had returned. Every time I heard him step on the soles of my shoes, it felt like they were going to be broken. He didn't even walk more quietly."
As soon as everyone came in, Fang Mei pretended to be angry and criticized Zhao Da.
However, the other party was not annoyed and replied with a smile: "I am just reminding you that I am back."
"Every day, there are only a few of us at home. Why do you need to walk so hard to remind us? Wouldn't they hear you if you just called out softly?"
"You know this is an old habit of mine that I can't change."
"Come inside, wash your hands and get ready for dinner."
Fang Mei introduced Song Fuyu to her husband. He smiled and nodded at her, then went into the bathroom.
From his physique and walking posture, it is not difficult to tell that he was once a soldier. He must have transferred to a garment factory after retiring from the army.
When the food was served, Song Fuyu sat next to Fang Mei.
"Fu Yu, you're welcome. It's just some home-cooked food. Help yourself to whatever you like."
"Okay, thank you Aunt Fang."
She picked up some of the shredded potatoes in front of her. It was sour with a hint of spiciness and tasted pretty good.
"Is the taste suitable? Is it spicy? We like our dishes to have a little bit of chili."
“I think it’s delicious and not spicy.”
"That's good."
"Dad, you and Xia Xia have to help me choose clothes later."
"Okay, no problem. I'll make sure to complete the task."
"Grandma, I'll help too."
"And me!"
"Okay, okay, just eat your meal first, and then help grandma choose."
"Fu Yu's craftsmanship is really good, but it's a pity."
"Aunt Fang, don't rush. Maybe we will have the opportunity to cooperate in the future."
"You said you were going to Lu City after the New Year. It seems to be more than 200 kilometers away from here? Are you going home?"
"My husband is in Lu City, I will go with the army."
"Oh, you're married?"
"yes."
"I didn't expect that you are so young and you are married. You are a military wife. It's not easy. Back then, I was also a military wife and lived in the army for seven or eight years, but in Wen City."
When Zhao Da, who was sitting in the first seat, heard that she was a military wife, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"It's good to be a soldier. If I hadn't injured my leg, I would probably still be in the army now."
When he walked in, Song Fuyu could tell that he used to be a soldier. He still walked in such an upright posture. He must miss the past very much. This was also the reason why she revealed that she was going to join the army.
After all, they were familiar with something, so the conversation would be much easier. Moreover, in this era, one person serving in the army brought honor to the whole family. The other party looked at her status, so if she wanted to discuss cooperation in the future, it would be much easier.
"Although you are not in the army now, but working in a garment factory, your ultimate goal is to serve the country. As long as you can contribute your own strength, it doesn't matter where you are. Uncle Zhao, you don't have to feel regretful."
"You make sense."
"Come and eat more, you're welcome, just treat it like you're eating at home."
Zhao Da's attitude instantly became much more enthusiastic.
"I suddenly feel that you are quite compatible with our family."
Fang Mei said with a smile.
"It's quite fate."
After dinner, I took a short rest.
Fang Mei handed the clothing sketch drawn by Song Fuyu to Zhao Da.
"Take a look, isn't it much better than the previous drawings of our garment factory?"
After Zhao Da took it, he looked at it carefully.
"It's really good. It looks simple and capable. It matches your temperament very well."
"That's right, I like every set and I can't decide. Please help me choose carefully."
"Grandma, let my sister and I see it too. We want to see it too."
"Be careful, don't tear the picture by accident."
"Okay, we'll be careful."
The three adults and two children of the Zhao family immediately entered into a discussion mode. Even the three-year-old daughter followed suit and expressed her opinions seriously, although she didn't seem to understand much.
"Grandma, I think this is very beautiful."
Zhao Xiaohai pointed to one of them, which was the first one drawn by Song Fuyu, and expressed his approval.
"As expected of my grandson, you have exactly the same opinion as your grandfather."
