Lu Huaijin rubbed from her wrist to her shoulders and neck with moderate force, and Xu Niannian fell asleep unknowingly.

Seeing her little face flushed from sleeping, Lu Huaijin couldn't help but steal a kiss on her.

He changed into clean clothes, looked at the woman curled up in front of him, and gently hugged her from behind.

The fragrance of her body became stronger. He sniffed her twice, then rubbed her into his arms, pressing his body tightly against hers.

Xu Niannian's eyelashes fluttered and she buried her head in the pillow.

When Xu Niannian opened her eyes in the afternoon, she saw Lu Ze looking at her with his round eyes.

He touched Lu Ze's little tiger head:

"What's wrong?"

Lu Ze lowered his head slightly. He felt that his aunt had been sleeping for a long time. He was afraid that something had happened to her, so he came to take a look.

Thinking of what Erniu said this morning:

"Aunt, can you be my mother?"

When Xu Niannian heard this, she shuddered.

There's nothing wrong with calling her mom, but the key point is that his biological father will come back later, so what should he call Lu Huaijin then? Isn't this confusing the generations?

Looking at his expectant eyes, I couldn't say no for fear of hurting him. The situation was a bit tricky.

"Why do you suddenly want Auntie to be your mother?"

Lu Ze clasped his hands. He felt that his mother was closer to him than his aunt. Erniu could even call her aunt, but he had his own mother and could not call Xu Niannian "mom".

Then Xu Niannian is still the closest to himself.

Xu Niannian looked at the little girl in front of her. Her face was much more moisturized than when she first arrived, and she looked very energetic in her dark green clothes.

Her eyelashes are long and thin and hang down.

He whispered:

"Erniu said he wants you to be his aunt."

Xu Niannian pinched his chubby little face:

"Auntie likes Lu Ze the most. Lu Ze is the cutest, right?"

Lu Ze's face turned pink:

"My aunt likes me the most."

Seeing how cute he was now, Xu Niannian couldn't help but kiss his chubby little face:

"Yes."

Lu Ze's face suddenly turned redder than before, and he ran out, covering the place where Xu Niannian had kissed him.

Xu Niannian didn't expect that the person would be kissed away after just one kiss.

I got up and changed my clothes, and then I heard a knock on the door:

"Is sister-in-law home?"

She quickly buttoned the last button and ran out.

The person who came was the young soldier she had seen before. When he saw Xu Niannian coming out, he called the other two people in.

"Sister-in-law, where is the sewing machine?"

Xu Niannian was stunned for a moment. Lu Huaijin didn’t tell her that he was going to buy this.

She saw a lot of people gathered outside to watch the fun. Yes, there were not many sisters-in-law in the family compound who had sewing machines, so naturally they all wanted to try them out.

"Put it in the main room."

As he said this, he led the way for the three of them.

The leading soldier shouted to the back:

"Be careful, don't bump into anything."

After the sewing machine was placed securely, the three little soldiers were ready to leave.

He was stopped by Xu Niannian:

"Please sit inside for a while. I'll be right there."

Then he ran to the kitchen.

This thing is quite a distance away from the military district gate to here.

Even though it was cold, they were sweating.

The kitchen cupboards were filled with desserts for children. Although they were delicious, they didn't seem cost-effective for the soldiers.

She returned with a bottle of hot sauce.

Hand it to them:

"Thank you for your hard work today. There isn't much food, so you can share it later."

The young soldiers' eyes lit up. They had heard that the sauce made by Captain Lu's wife was delicious, but they had never had a chance to have a taste of it.

I didn't expect that I would get meat sauce when I received a sewing machine as a gift.

But I still feel a little embarrassed:

"Sister-in-law, this is nothing. There's no need to send gifts."

Xu Niannian ignored him and forcefully stuffed the thing into his hands.

She has no shortage of meat sauce, and one bottle is enough for each person. But she can't be so generous now. If she gives too much, the other party will feel embarrassed to accept it.

Sure enough, the three people opposite looked at each other, and couldn't stand the torture of saliva and stopped.

They all grinned, revealing their snow-white teeth:

"Sister-in-law, if you need any physical work at home, come to us. My name is Wang Gang."

"My name is Wang Ming."

"My name is Song Qianjin."

"OK."

The group happily left Xu Niannian's house with a bottle of meat sauce.

Xu Niannian sent her to the door and brought Mrs. Li in.

The two little kids are already playing with the sewing machine.

Sister Li came forward as soon as she saw it:

"My dear, please don't break it. It's such a precious thing."

Then he pointed out Xu Niannian:

"Just put a red cloth on it and cover it up when not in use to prevent dust from falling on it."

"Will my sister-in-law use this?"

I just needed to make two more sets of clothes for the two little ones to change into, so this machine would be much more convenient.

Sister Li stared at the sewing machine:

"How could I know how to do that? Political Commissar Li's wife has a teacher at home. If you want to learn, go find her. But she's an elementary school teacher, so she might be a little arrogant."

"Sister-in-law, can you help me cut some more clothes? I'll make another set for the child to change into."

"sure."

Xu Niannian quickly walked into the inner room, and this time it was dark blue fabric.

When I came out, I saw Sister Li teasing two children:

"Your aunt is so kind to you. You should also be nice to her when you grow up."

Lu Ze thought of the kiss his aunt gave her and nodded proudly:

"I will treat her well when I grow up and take care of her in her old age."

Xu Niannian didn't expect that someone would take care of her in her old age at such a young age. She walked over quickly and put the cloth on the table.

Lu Huaijin was quite considerate. Not only did he buy a sewing machine, he also bought several sets of matching threads in different colors.

The color is bright and it feels smooth, it looks like it is of good quality.

Having already gained some experience from cutting two in the morning, Sister Li started cutting without even looking at the drawing.

While sewing, Li's wife chatted with her about gossip outside:

"Captain Lu was really conspicuous just now. Everyone said that you married a good man who is caring."

Lu Ze's eyes lit up. His uncle was quite sensible and really started to coax his aunt.

Xu Nianxiao laughed:

"It's not easy to be a wife."

Wasn't she misunderstood a few days ago? Lu Huaijin was apologizing!

When Sister Li heard this, she had a lot to say:

"That's right! Look at Shen Ming next door, he's a confused person. He's a kind person, but you have to be considerate of people. You don't have to be so nice to outsiders. It will only make his own family feel cold."

Xu Niannian frowned. She had been busy with Lu Ze's new clothes all day and had no time to go and take a look at Wang Hongmei.

"Has Deputy Battalion Commander Shen not reconciled with Sister Hongmei yet?"

"That's right. I heard another quarrel at noon today. It seemed that Hongmei asked him to report it, but he refused to go."
