"You still have the nerve to laugh."
Zheng Zheng glared at his daughter resentfully.
It is true that girls are extroverts.
My daughter used to be best friends with him, but now, seeing her own father making a fool of himself, she burst into laughter.
"Sister Dongmei, the old men are back and have already arrived at Captain Zhang's house. Let's not wait here anymore."
"Okay, I'll be right there."
Living in a row house is convenient. When Yan Xiaoyu heard the noise in the yard of the neighbor on the left, she immediately called the neighbor on the right.
"These two old ladies are more active than us."
The three of them are all in the Second Brigade, living next to each other, and their families get along well, so they are very happy.
"Captain Zhang, sister-in-law, let's go back and change our clothes before coming back."
Although it is still spring, the temperature in southern Xinjiang is not low.
In the barracks, we must always maintain military appearance and discipline, but when we get home, we want to change into thinner and looser clothes.
"I'll go call the brigade commander and the political commissar."
Zhang Xiangnan hurried out without even having time to change his clothes.
The county magistrate is not as good as the current one. Between him and Division Commander Cao, there are the brigade commander and the political commissar.
Even if the old leader took a liking to him, he could not frequently interact with the old leader without going through the brigade commander.
Doing so will inevitably give you a reputation as a speculator and an upper-class person.
Although you have a clear conscience, you still have to be careful about what people say.
"Let the sisters-in-law come along."
Su Hong shouted at Zhang Xiangnan's back.
"knew."
Zhang Xiangnan waved behind him.
"Sister-in-law, these are the peanuts that my parents sent me. I fried a plate of them and they will be perfect for the gentlemen to eat with their wine later.
This is fried chicken mixed with pheasant eggs. The pheasant Xiaoguang sent over yesterday laid eggs that same day.
Gao Dongmei walked in with a plate of food in one hand.
"Mom, why didn't you call me for help?"
Zheng Yushan quickly took the plate from her mother's hand and put it on the dining table in the house.
"Why am I calling you? I'm not too busy. Just talk to Xiaoguang more."
Gao Dongmei took out a handkerchief and wiped the cumin seeds from the corner of her daughter's mouth.
"Sister-in-law, don't fry eggs every time from now on. Just keep them for yourself."
If Su Hong were the head of a regiment, he would raise seven or eight chickens at home. Since the whole family needs to eat, they probably wouldn't have too many eggs.
"Your family pays the most, so what are these eggs of mine? Besides, we can't have dinner together every day, so my sister-in-law can provide it."
Not to mention that they are not relatives now, even if they become relatives in the future, Gao Dongmei will not eat and drink for free.
Sending something over is a nice gesture.
"Sister-in-law, don't speak too soon, you don't know my eldest son's ability.
Xiaoguang has never had his hands empty since he entered the mountains. He can get whatever he wants to eat."
Su Hong also wanted to keep a low profile, but her son was too ambitious.
"The first time I met him, I knew Xiaoguang was capable."
The more Gao Dongmei looked at her son-in-law, the more satisfied she became. This is why she tried her best to match Zhang Shuguang with her daughter.
“Sister-in-law Dongmei, you are still standing between us and our family. I let you get ahead of us again.”
Yan Xiaoyu and her family came together.
She and her two sons carried the dishes, while Lei Zhensheng and his guard Wang Da Kui moved the tables, chairs and benches.
As soon as the tables and chairs were set up, Brigade Commander Xiao Pengcheng and Political Commissar Qiao Lifang followed Zhang Xiangnan into the yard.
"Brigade Commander Xiao, Political Commissar Qiao."
…
Everyone greeted each other.
"Two leaders, why didn't the two sisters-in-law come with you? I just specifically told Xiangnan to do so."
Having just met them two days ago, Su Hong and the two leaders are acquainted with each other.
"Your sister-in-law has already prepared the meal. The current situation is still difficult, and we as a military family cannot afford to waste it."
"Uncle Xiao, Uncle Qiao, I was inconsiderate. I should have visited you in advance and said hello to Auntie when I came back from hunting today.
How about this, I'll grill some skewers and serve some pork rib soup for you two ladies to try."
Zhang Shuguang started grilling without saying a word.
"No need to go to so much trouble. We won't be eating at home, which saves one person's rations. The food we cook will be enough for them."
"My dear gentlemen, the meat skewers and charcoal fire are ready, and the pork rib soup is already cooked. It's no trouble at all."
Zhang Shuguang kept moving his hands and looked up with a bright smile.
"You're all here!"
At this time, Commander Cao and his family finally arrived, and Wei Hu moved another box of Maotai for the internal supply, and all the people who were having dinner tonight gathered together again.
"Hello, Chief."
"Hello, sister-in-law."
"Hello, Aunt Zhao."
…
Everyone greeted him respectfully, and several officers surrounded Cao Yongzhan and walked into the house.
"Xiao Guang, hasn't Xiao Li learned how to barbecue? Leave this to him. Come in and drink with Grandpa Cao."
Cao Yongzhan stopped and turned to look at Zhang Shuguang.
"Grandpa Cao, you drink first. I'll come over after I finish baking this batch."
This group of people is huge, and Zhang Shuguang knows his own business and can't handle it at all.
Zhang Shuguang baked two batches of pork ribs in a row and served two large bowls of pork rib soup.
"Brother Li, I'll leave the barbecue to you. Brother Wang, Brother Li, do you know the homes of Brigade Commander Xiao and Political Commissar Qiao? Take me and my mother there and deliver the barbecue and pork rib soup."
My family has been here for three or four days, so it is only right that I should go and visit them.
"I know. It's not far to the left. We'll take you there right away."
Wang Da Kui and Li Shunfeng are the guards of Lei Zhensheng and Zheng Zheng.
"Aunt Zhao, excuse me for a moment. I need to go to the two leaders' homes."
