"I'll go cook."
"Mom, I'll help you pick the vegetables."
Xu Qingluo couldn't sit still either. If she didn't find something to do, she would be in trouble.
"㵕."
Zhou Li brought the beans to the living room and gave them to her, asking her to sit on the sofa and slowly pick the beans to pass the time.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law worked together to cook dinner.
The wife of Captain Zhang from next door (Sun Cuiju) also brought some fresh vegetables to our house.
"Aunt Zhou, Captain Zhou's wife."
"This is the radish my family just picked today."
"I'll get some for you."
When Zhou Li saw Captain Zhang's wife bringing in some big vegetables, he smiled and quickly took them.
This big vegetable looks juicy and fresh, and it is very delicious when fried.
"Thank you so much, Captain Zhang's wife."
"Take these two cucumbers back."
"It's hot, let's make a cold dish."
Zhou Li went to the backyard and picked two cucumbers from the cucumber rack and brought them back to Captain Zhang's wife.
This cucumber rack was built after Zhou Li came, and now the cucumbers are growing.
"Thank you, auntie."
Captain Zhang's wife accepted it without hesitation.
The two families often send each other some of their own food, and after a long time, they will not become too formal.
"Then Auntie, I won't disturb you while you eat."
"I'm going back first."
"㵕."
Zhou Li sent the person away with a smile, and as soon as he sat down at the dining table, he couldn't help but start chatting with Xu Qingluo.
"This is a really nice wife of the group leader."
“He is warm-hearted and kind.”
“As neighbors, we can also look out for each other.”
Xu Qingluo smiled and nodded. Captain Zhang's family were indeed very good neighbors.
As the saying goes, a distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor. Having a good neighbor is more important than anything else.
"Mom, I want to eat the pickled vegetables you made."
"I want to eat pickled radish and pickled cucumber."
Xu Qingluo was really craving for the pickled vegetables Zhou Li made. All the pickled vegetables Zhou Li had made before were eaten up by Xu Qingluo.
She usually eats pickled vegetables as snacks, and when she feels craving for them she grabs a piece to satisfy her craving.
When Zhou Li heard that she still wanted to eat the pickled vegetables she made, his eyes were full of kindness and smile.
"Are you hungry again?"
"Mom will make it for you later."
"I promise you'll have enough to eat."
After Zhou Li had his fill, he happily went to the backyard to wash vegetables and start making pickles, with great execution.
Xu Qingluo was a little tired after a busy day. After taking a quick shower, he dozed off.
"Xiao Luo, go into the house and go to sleep."
Zhou Li saw her dozing off on the stool and quickly took her back to her room to rest so that she wouldn't fall asleep there.
"Mom, I'll accompany you."
Zhou Li was still busy washing clothes, and Xu Qingluo was somewhat reluctant to go to bed alone.
"Oh, no."
"Mom finished washing clothes and took a rest."
"Your rest is more important than anything else."
Xu Qingluo didn't want to hold on any longer, so he said goodbye to Zhou Qi and went back to his room to rest.
"Mom, then you should go to bed early."
"Ai!"
Zhou Li smiled and waved to her. Xu Qingluo went back to her room and fell into a deep sleep as soon as she touched the pillow.
After Zhou Li finished washing and hanging the clothes to dry, he returned to his room to rest.

One week later:
Zhou's father arrived in Xuecheng.
Before coming, Zhou's father called the military unit in Xuecheng in advance, and the military unit arranged a car to pick him up.
"Commander-in-Chief Zhou."
"Well, thank you for your hard work."
The soldier who drove to pick up Zhou's father saluted him immediately.
“It’s not hard!”
Father Zhou gave his security guard a look, and the security guard stepped forward and took the car keys.
