[Chapter 270 Chapter 270 Family Portrait]
Before Cheng Liyan even entered the door, he heard Xiao Mei praising her son, and he immediately felt relieved.
He knew his daughter-in-law was awake.
As long as my wife wakes up, there will be no mistakes.
Sure enough, when he went in, Xiao Mei was leaning in front of the crib, watching her son talking to his wife.
Seeing him come in, Xiao Mei stood up and said to him, "Director Cheng, congratulations on the birth of your baby. You must thank our Yuyao."
"Yes, yes, thank you, thank you, thank you." Cheng Liyan answered very readily.
While talking, he rubbed his hands vigorously, and after rubbing them warm, he touched Shen Yuyao's hand and asked, "Are you not cold?"
"What's so cold?"
Shen Yuyao couldn't help laughing: "I'm staying at home, covered with a quilt. How cold can it be? But you, why are your hands so cold?"
"I just washed my hands and came here." Cheng Liyan explained.
Although Xiao Mei had long been accustomed to the affection between the couple, she still hissed in jealousy when she saw this man clinging to his wife as soon as he entered the room, and couldn't help laughing: "I'd better leave quickly. I feel like I'm getting in the way by standing here."
"What's the eyesore? Stop talking nonsense."
Shen Yuyao pointed to a stool on the side and said, "Move a stool over here so we can talk."
Then he looked at Cheng Liyan and said, "Xiao Mei just helped to bring in all the bedding. Go get a bed sheet and help her make the bed. She doesn't know where the bed sheet is."
Cheng Liyan quickly glanced at Xiao Mei and saw that she didn't react. He knew that his wife had already explained it.
He agreed, took out a brand new bed sheet from the closet and walked out.
This was given to me by my mother. She thought it was so good, but had never been able to use it. It’s just right to give it to her now.
When Cheng Liyan arrived at the cottage, he saw the old lady staring at the bedding piled on the bunk beds in a daze.
The old lady came from a noble family and was raised by maids and old women.
She had never made a bed before, let alone a bunk bed with two floors.
After Cheng Liyan entered the room, he made the bed quickly.
The old lady stood aside and watched Cheng Liyan pull the bed sheet until there was not a single wrinkle and folded the quilt into a tofu block.
The admiration in his eyes could not be concealed.
Seeing that it was still early and realizing that Xiao Mei might stay for a while, Cheng Liyan gave her the clothes he bought for the old lady and invited her to go out for a walk.
The old lady was very surprised to hear this invitation, and couldn't help but repeat: "Take me out for a walk?"
"Yes." Cheng Liyan said.
He smiled and said, "Yuyao and Xiaomei who just came are very good friends, and they haven't seen each other for a long time.
Xiao Meilai guessed that Yuyao wanted to talk to her for a while, so while it's still light, can I take you out for a walk?
We won’t go far, just stroll around this yard and show you where we live.
If you can walk a long way, I will take you to see where I work. My second brother has been asking about it before, and he seems to be very curious.
Please turn around and talk to him later."
Although Cheng Liyan didn't know whether his mother-in-law could go back, he felt that both his wife and mother-in-law seemed very confident that they could go back.
In that case, he wouldn't say anything to spoil the mood.
After thinking for a while, he added, "I had planned to buy a camera after Yuyao gave birth. Now that you are here, I will buy it tomorrow. We will take more photos and some family portraits to bring back to show my father and three brothers.
Look at our lives, look at our home, look at our children, so that they can feel at ease too.”
Mrs. Shen was really moved when she heard this.
My daughter and son-in-law sent some photos home when they got married. When we looked at the clear images in the photos, the whole family was very excited and curious.
At that time, Mrs. Shen only hoped that her daughter could take some photos back often, but she never thought that one day she would have the opportunity to take photos.
Cheng Liyan took the old lady for a walk around the staff quarters.
I took her to see the family buildings in the front and back yards, the playground, the canteen, and the military service center.
Seeing that the old lady was still in good spirits, he took her to the division headquarters for a tour.
At this time, people who were more familiar with her already knew that this old lady was Cheng Liyan's godmother, and she had rushed over from her hometown to take care of him when she knew his wife was giving birth.
So no one felt strange about the two of them coming out together, and from time to time someone would come over to say hello and ask how they were.
Because Cheng Liyan was there to remind her, the old lady was able to face it calmly.
After entering the division headquarters, the old lady felt that her eyes were not enough.
The main reason was that she had never seen so many soldiers, and they were so well-trained!
At first, she was even a little timid when she saw the soldiers training on the playground, but with her son-in-law standing beside her, she quickly adapted.
The division headquarters was very large, so Cheng Liyan only took the old lady around places that were suitable for her to see, and did not walk too far.
Finally, he even took the old lady to the health center, wanting to take this opportunity to give his mother-in-law a physical examination.
It's a rare opportunity to come here. After all, the medical conditions here are better than theirs.
Cheng Liyan felt that after a check-up, both he and his wife would feel more at ease.
Just as Cheng Liyan took the old lady out for a stroll, Shen Yuyao and Xiao Mei also started chatting about family matters.
Because they were so familiar with each other, Shen Yuyao didn't hesitate to ask directly, "What's going on between you and Fade Chen? Why are you still fighting like this? Why didn't he come with you today?"
After hearing this, Xiao Mei glared at Shen Yuyao and said, "What are you talking about? Who had a fight with him? I've already said that I went to take care of him because of special circumstances!
He was injured like that, how could no one take care of him? No one else cared about him except me. "
Shen Yuyao clicked her tongue and said, "Why is no one taking care of you? Didn't their army send a young soldier to stay here? That's because you took such good care of me that the young soldier went to take care of others.
I am heartbroken, why are you still being so stubborn in front of me?"
Xiao Mei felt a little uncomfortable when Shen Yuyao poked her.
She waved her hand: "Let's not talk about the past. Anyway, there is nothing going on between him and me now."
Shen Yuyao glanced at Xiao Mei, thought about it, and did not continue the topic.
When Chen Fei was in the hospital, he was indeed very resistant to Xiao Mei. That was because he felt that his injuries were too serious and might never heal, so he didn't want to drag others down.
But later, as the injury improved, a doctor promised that as long as he persisted in rehabilitation, even if he could not recover to his best condition, he would have no problem living a normal life.
After that, Chen Fei changed his attitude and started pursuing Xiao Mei again.
But contrary to his attitude, Xiao Mei really tried her best at the beginning.
But knowing that he was fine, Xiao Mei did as she said and cut off ties with this man again.
Even after he was able to take care of himself, he stopped going to the hospital.
But who is Chen Fei?
How could someone who is not afraid of the enemy's weapons be scared off by such a difficulty?
Since he couldn't go back to the island after being injured anyway, he simply applied to be transferred to a civilian position. Now he works as the head of the military affairs department in a support regiment under the division.
Although the support group is not in the Binhai city, it is only about a hundred kilometers away and can be traveled back and forth in one day by long-distance bus.
So whenever Chen Fei had a holiday, he would run to Xiao Mei's side, and the tug-of-war between the two had been going on for quite some time.
