In addition to these, Xu Niannian also called the fabric factory and communicated with the factory manager.
They decided to use this time to exchange the vegetables for the defective cloth and oilcloth in their factory.
The factory manager also heard about this. He wanted to donate it. If a little girl had such courage, he might be able to do the same.
I just think of the complicated relationships in the factory. It would be bad if I became a handle for others.
Hearing the silence from the other side, Xu Niannian continued to persuade:
"These days, many soldiers are also going to disaster relief, so vegetables are not available. We use vegetables to exchange cloth, which is actually a win-win result."
The factory manager agreed this time.
Someone had previously proposed to include vegetables in the canteen, but the cost was considered too high and the proposal was ultimately rejected.
But now we are going with the flow and contributing our part to our factory.
The military wives acted quickly, and the soldiers also came over to move the picked corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes into the car.
Looking at the neatly stacked food.
The military wives also spoke up:?
"Xiao Xu, your corn is really well grown. I see that all the corns are plump and the seeds are good."
In order to save space, they peeled off the outer skin in advance, leaving only a thin layer of skin.
"Yes, the sweet potatoes are big and look delicious."
"Be sure to pay attention to safety on the road!"
Xu Niannian thanked them. Although everyone was sometimes harsh in words, true feelings could only be seen when something big like this happened.
Mother Lu was helping her pack her clothes at home, but she was still worried:
"Or let the soldiers take it. You, a little girl, can't help much."
Xu Niannian took a sip of water and checked the time:
"My noodles are almost done. I went there for the disaster victims and to bring some food to Huai Jin. He must not be full there. I used to make noodles for him when I was on a mission before. This time, I was in a tight spot and I felt like something was missing."
She got up and went to the kitchen. When the three cubs heard that their mother was going to look for their father, they also wanted to go with her, but of course they were rejected.
In the kitchen, Xu Niannian directly handed over the dough kneading process to the fully automatic kitchen in the space.
I didn’t know if there was hot water there, so I first made some soft pancakes that wouldn’t be hard even when cold, and then I made more than ten pounds of buns.
The buns are all filled with meat and are wrapped and steamed.
I also packed some pastries that I made two days ago. Eating some oily food at this time can also replenish my energy.
Looking at the pile of food on the table, Xu Niannian wiped the sweat from his forehead.
He looked at the time and it was already midnight, so he went into the house and found a few thick military coats for Lu Huaijin. It must be very cold over there, and he didn't know if what he was wearing would get wet.
The three babies have fallen asleep.
After finishing all this, she went to bed and kissed the little faces of the babies.
The next day, they left the house before dawn, and Lu's mother helped others carry the things to where the bus was waiting.
When I passed through the city, I brought all the fabrics with me.
In the past, the soldiers would have started making jokes when they saw my sister-in-law carrying these things, but now everyone had a heavy expression on their face.
The car is open 24 hours a day, and there are people constantly replacing the driver.
The disaster area was soon reached and was completely blocked off.
No one except military personnel can enter.
What you see in the movie is one thing, and what you see in reality is another thing altogether: devastation everywhere, and wounded people lying on stretchers.
You can even see cracks on the ground, and the collapsed houses in the distance are all reminders of the tragedy that happened here a few days ago.
Xu Niannian looked around, trying to see Lu Huaijin.
Make sure he's safe now.
At this time, the leading battalion commander ran over:
"Lu Tuan has gone out to rescue people. He should be back soon."
Xu Niannian nodded:
"You guys go ahead and do your work, don't worry about me."
The soldiers also began to join the rescue team at this moment, and Xu Niannian also helped by doing some bandaging work within his ability.
I don’t know how long it took, but Lu Huaijin came back, and as soon as he arrived here, he started looking for Xu Niannian.
He had just returned from his mission when he heard that his wife had come to deliver supplies.
I felt anxious and annoyed, but also a little proud.
He walked quickly, not caring about his tiredness. After seeing Xu Niannian being bandaged in the simple medical room, he finally couldn't help but hugged her anymore.
Perhaps because they had become accustomed to the separation of life and death in the past few days, no one else made a joke and just quietly did their own thing.
Lu Huaijin hugged her waist tightly:
"Why are you here?"
"I'm worried about you, so I came to see you."
Then he slapped himself on the head:
"I brought you some food in the car. I just arrived and I don't dare to distribute it directly. I'll leave it to your team."
Lu Huaijin's voice was a little dry:
"good."
Xu Niannian felt heartbroken when she heard his voice. She glanced at his dry, cracked lips and took out the thermos she carried with her:
"Drink some quickly."
Lu Huaijin didn't bother to be polite with her. He was indeed very thirsty. There was a shortage of water and food here.
Xu Niannian looked at Lu Huaijin. His clothes were just a little worn and tattered, with some blood on them, but he probably didn't suffer any serious injuries.
Lu Huaijin restrained himself and drank two sips, then handed it to her:
"Leave some for you. I'll find you a car later, and you can go back to the army with the wounded."
Xu Niannian pouted:
"You're sending me away when I first get here? I'll take you to see what to eat."
Then he pulled Lu Huaijin to the back of the truck:
"Open it."
Lu Huaijin sent a little soldier up to open the back door.
She said she brought some food before, and I thought she brought a few bags of flour, but I didn't expect she brought a whole truckload of things.
While it was open, Xu Niannian introduced:
"These are all corn, sweet potatoes, and potatoes grown in our greenhouse. They can be used as staple food. There are also some oilcloth and defective cloth in the back. I exchanged them with the cloth factory..."
Xu Niannian looked at Lu Huaijin with bright eyes, leaned close to his ear and said:
"I'm telling you, I also secretly brought you some dry food and pastries, which I made myself. There aren't many, so take a look..."
Before she could finish, Lu Huaijin kissed her.
The action was urgent and reckless, and he was really touched.
In his heart, Xu Niannian has always been a little girl who deserves his protection, but now she has done everything and even ran so far for him.
His heart was filled with sourness.
Hearing that Xu Niannian was here, Zhang Liang ran here as soon as he returned from the mission. He didn't expect to be fed a mouthful of dog food when they met.
Xu Niannian hurriedly pushed Lu Huaijin away. She couldn't kiss him in front of her brother-in-law.
Lu Huaijin also came to his senses, coughed lightly, and asked the young soldier to go back and call someone to bring some food.
Lu Huaijin shook her hand:
"Don't blame yourself. These are all good things here. Before you came, we ate small potatoes and wild fruits picked from the trees."
