Chapter 154
When Xu Di arrived, everyone in the office was there.
"Xiao Xu, what are you carrying?"
"Sister Tang, this is some seafood I exchanged in the south. It just arrived today.
One portion for each family, not much, try something new.
I have taken a month's leave. Thank you for your hard work.
Sister Zhao, Sister Tang, Meng Jiao, Wang Wei, try it, it tastes good. ”
"Thank you, Xiao Xu. The seafood is fresh. It's one more dish for the New Year."
Sister Tang’s face was full of joy. The amount of things was not important, what was important was the attitude.
Xiao Xu asked for leave, so they had to work harder. There was nothing they could do about it.
However, they felt relieved because Xiao Xu appreciated the kindness.
"Thank you, Xiao Xu!"
"vomit……"
Meng Jiao was just about to say thank you when the unique smell of seafood rushed into her nose and she felt nauseous all of a sudden.
"Xiao Meng, are you pregnant?"
Sister Tang is an experienced person and she can tell from the looks of it that this is a pregnancy reaction.
"I don't know. My period has never been accurate. I can't even remember when it last came."
"Well, I'm going to go out for a while."
When Wang Wei heard this, he felt embarrassed and found an excuse to leave the office.
"Xiao Wang, I'm sorry. Really, his wife has already given birth to a child. What is there to be embarrassed about?"
Sister Tang’s child is in his teens. He is straightforward and speaks directly. Occasionally, he also drives a car.
"Meng Jiao, find some time to go to the hospital for a checkup so you know if it's true. You need to be careful in the early stages of pregnancy."
"I see. I'll go to the hospital tomorrow to check it out."
Meng Jiao had been married for less than half a year, and they hadn't used any contraception.
Xu Di didn't stay long, and gave some seafood to other colleagues with whom she had a good relationship, as well as the head of their logistics department. Xu Di also gave some to them.
As for the workplace, she didn't know much about it, but some things required give and take, and no one knew when help would be needed.
After coming out of the logistics department, Xu Di went to the front building to pick out a watch for Xiaojun.
Watches at this time are all similar.
Xu Di picked out a domestic watch and spent eighty yuan on it.
After returning home, Zhang Chaoyang put on his clothes and prepared to go out to deliver seafood.
"Wife, Yunlei will come to pick me up later, and I will also deliver the things to them.
I sent all the things to the retirement home and the military compound. ”
"Okay, be careful and don't be stubborn. The wound on your stomach hasn't healed completely yet."
"Got it, wife, I'll pay attention."
Zhang Chaoyang also knew that he had more than ten stitches in his stomach and could not be careless.
"Wife, wife..."
Nuannuan parroted what her father said, and when she heard him calling his wife, she followed suit.
"Oh, little Nuan Nuan baby, do you know what my wife means? Are you just shouting along?"
Xu Di hugged Nuannuan and tickled her gently.
Only when Nuannuan started to giggle did Xu Di stop.
Hao Yunlei arrived, came up to help carry the things into the car, said hello to Xu Di and Grandma Qian, and left without entering the house.
Song Hui and Chen Jianguo's workplaces were not far from each other, so they sent him off together and agreed to get together after the New Year.
"Let's go. I'll take you to the retirement home first, and I'll go see my old man."
Hao Yunlei's family is also located in a military compound, and his grandfather is also an old revolutionary.
"Okay, I'll see you later."
Zhang Chaoyang carried the things and knocked on the door of his master's house.
"Chaoyang is back. How is he? Is your recovery okay?"
Grandma Fang opened the door, saw Zhang Chaoyang, and asked about his health with concern.
"Hello, Grandma Fang. The stitches on my wound have been removed, but it hasn't healed completely yet."
"I heard that he had more than ten stitches. You have to be careful not to stretch it."
Zhang Chaoyang handed the things he had brought to Grandma Fang and went to have a conversation with his grandfather.
"You look healthy. Your wife has taken great care of you."
"Well, thanks to Xu Di, who cooks different soups every day, I got better so quickly.
The doctors thought I would recover quickly and I thought I would have to stay in the hospital for at least a month. ”
Zhang Chaoyang's nutrition is really not improving, and he himself feels it.
"Okay, for a couple to live together, knowing each other's feelings is better than anything else.
Your elder brother was delayed by family matters. After the New Year, he was transferred back, left the front-line troops, and went to school to work as an instructor. ”
“I heard from my grandmother that my eldest brother wanted to take care of the children, and the job of an instructor was not bad.
Xuan He no longer has a mother to take care of him, but at least his father cannot be absent from his childhood. ”
Zhang Chaoyang himself has experienced that kind of helplessness. From expecting his parents' love to giving up completely, the process was not long, but it was very painful.
"Let's hope so. He can't always raise the child by himself. He still has to find someone suitable."
Zhang Chaoyang did not refute. Wasn’t that what his grandfather did back then?
When he heard from the villagers that his grandmother had died, didn't he quickly find another one?
His second uncle is less than two years younger than his father, and his grandfather is very good at time management.
"I heard that you have made great contributions this time. Will you be promoted again after the New Year?"
"Maybe. This time I will study in the military academy for two years and report in March."
Zhang Chaoyang doesn’t care whether he can get promoted or not. It’s Grandpa Wang’s credit that he’s here, and no one else can take it away from him.
"It's also good to study for two years. When you graduate, you will have more choices."
"I obey the arrangements and follow the orders."
The two chatted for a while, and Zhang Chaoyang didn't say much. He never thought of asking the old man to pave the way for him.
His second uncle had just been transferred back to the Beijing Military Region, and the old man's connections would be handed over to his second uncle one after another, and his father would not be able to get any of them.
The old man looked at Zhang Chaoyang's tall back. This child was the most capable and best developed among all his brothers.
After leaving the retirement home, Zhang Chaoyang went to the army and delivered the things to his father in the logistics department.
"Are you feeling well?"
"It's OK. I need to take care of it for a while."
The two were strangers to each other and didn't know what to say, so Zhang Chaoyang turned and left.
Father Zhang opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he didn't know where to start.
In the evening, when Zhang's mother returned home, she saw the seafood brought back by Zhang's father and knew that it was sent by Zhang Chaoyang.
"Chaoyang has been here. How is he? Are his wounds healed?"
“It’s not completely healed yet, and you still have to be careful not to open the wound.
I'm going to visit my mom tomorrow, please prepare something. ”
"knew."
The couple looked at their deserted home and suddenly felt very lonely.
The next day, Xu Di's family of three finished their breakfast and went to the staff quarters of the machinery factory.
Father Zhang brought some things to visit his old mother. Every time he came, he felt a little guilty.
"Mom, this is some nutrition for you."
"Well, leave it there."
Grandma Qian no longer cares about her only son, nor does she blame him.
Over the years, she has let go of many things.
"Mom, let's celebrate the New Year together, shall we?"
"No, go wherever you want, you don't have to come and accompany me, having Chaoyang and the others at home is enough.
Now that you are here, can you cook or do something else?
By then, it will be Xiaodi who will be tired and cook a lot of food. It will be so tiring. ”
Grandma Qian thought to herself that they had a nice idea and they were willing to spend the New Year with her.
No need, just live your own life. If it’s already happened, don’t force it together.
Father Zhang couldn't refute it, he really didn't think so much about it. However, Zhou Hong's cooking skills are not very good, and his family usually eats in the cafeteria.
Father Zhang didn't convince his mother. He played with Xuan He for a while and then left.
Xu Di and the others also got off the bus and walked towards the machinery factory’s staff quarters.
