When Bai Shuixian came back, the excitement outside was not over yet, but it was almost over. She did not go over to watch the excitement, but went straight home.
"Mom, you're back."
Gong Linglong was washing vegetables in the kitchen. She quickly put down her work, walked over to pour her some tea, and asked, "Mom, did you find it?"
"We found a place, but my elders were transferred for work, and the whole family moved away more than ten years ago."
Bai Shuixian had just bought some vegetables at the meat processing factory and brought them to the kitchen. She said to her, "Linglong, your mother-in-law and Jingyang are leaving tonight. Cook this meat for them to eat on the way."
"Mom, I steamed some braised pork belly. Let's stir-fry this meat and eat it together tonight."
"OK."
Bai Shuixian put the bag back into the house and came out to see her mother-in-law coming out of the bathroom. She asked with a smile, "Did something happen outside? I see the family members are all gathered together, talking about something."
"Mom, I just had a fight with someone." Gong Linglong confessed honestly.
Bai Shuixian: "...You, your personality and temper are still so impatient and hot-tempered. You are impatient and your mood swings are huge. This is not conducive to self-cultivation and is not good for the health of a lesbian."
Seeing that she didn't blame them for the quarrel, Gong Linglong grinned and said, "I didn't initiate the quarrel. Someone took it out on me for no apparent reason. I won't be her punching bag."
"Mother-in-law, Linglong did nothing wrong. It was others who were wrong." Zhou Lanqin spoke up for her.
Bai Narcissus understands her daughter. She has a somewhat impatient temper, but she never quarrels or fights with others for no reason, and she never takes the initiative to cause trouble. Every time she quarrels or fights, it is because the other party is unreasonable.
Although she had done nothing wrong, she still warned him, "Linglong, this is the army, not Niujiao Bay. From now on, control your temper a little and try not to get into physical fights with others. If you encounter someone who is unpleasant and unreasonable, go and call the army leader to deal with it."
Gong Linglong nodded in response: "Okay, I understand."
"Okay, tell me what happened just now." Bai Shuixian wanted to understand what happened so that she could have a better idea of what was going on.
By the time she finished, Bai Shuixian had figured out what was going on. Today's incident had nothing to do with her. It was all caused by Qian Pozi, her daughter, and the two members of the art troupe. She sighed, "Where there are people, there's always trouble. These four people aren't easy to deal with, and they're not easy to get along with. I'll avoid associating with them in the future."
Zhou Lanqin thought the same and said, "Linglong, Yaping and Ximei next door are pretty good people. You can also make friends with Xu Lu and Yang Xiaolan. You can spend more time with them in the future. You don't need to get too close to the other family members."
"Mom, I know."
Zhou Lanqin could tell she was a very opinionated person with a very smart mind, so she didn't say much. She got up and went to the kitchen to get a bucket. "Mother-in-law, Jingyang is fishing in the river. We set up a trap today. Do you want to go with me to take a look?"
"Okay, I'll go too."
Bai Shuixian finished drinking the water and said to her daughter before leaving: "Linglong, prepare the dishes first. I will come back and cook later."
"Mom, I'll do it, you go and have fun." Gong Linglong didn't let her cook.
In the evening, the men returned together. Lu Jingchuan pushed the door open and entered the house. He saw his mother-in-law and brother squatting in the living room, cleaning the fish. He raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Where did all these fish come from?"
"I fished this afternoon."
Lu Jingyang looked at him with a smile and reported the results: "Two grass carps, one bighead carp, one carp, three crucian carp, and three or four mandarin fish and yellow croaker, which I have never eaten before."
He had a good catch in the afternoon. He became more and more excited as he fished and was reluctant to go back. Later, the wooden barrel was full of fish, so he put away his fishing rod and went home.
Bai Shuixian was helping to clean up the internal organs and said to him with a faint smile, "Let your mother-in-law take these fish back to Kyoto to eat. The temperature is low now, and it will only take a day to get to Kyoto. Don't worry about them getting stale and spoiling on the train."
"Well, take them all. The fish here tastes pretty good."
Lu Jingchuan went to the kitchen and saw his wife wearing an apron and quickly cooking. He asked with a smile, "Linglong, I heard that you took action to clean up the atmosphere in the family compound this afternoon?"
Gong Linglong: "...Is Political Commissar Zhao going to give me a certificate of honor?"
Lu Jingchuan's eyes were filled with doting, and he complained with grievance, "I don't have a certificate, but your man just got spanked by Political Commissar Zhao, and he even ordered that those two spanked chestnuts be stewed with you, this chili pepper, tonight."
"Ha ha..."
Except for Lu Jingchuan, everyone else laughed heartily.
Gong Linglong could tell that her man was highly regarded by the leaders in the military region. She pointed at the dish in the pot with a smile and said, "We'll keep the chili stewed with fried chestnuts for ourselves. Let's send him a bowl of this."
Lu Jingchuan glared at her, poured her a bowl of warm water, and asked with a smile, "What happened this afternoon? Tell me, who picked on you? I'll pick on him right now."
"Oh, why is my Deputy Captain Lu so nice?" Gong Linglong smiled.
"Ahem."
Lu Jingchuan coughed lightly, unable to suppress the curve of his lips. He winked at her, reminding her that her mother was still in the kitchen.
Seeing that the young couple was very loving, Zhou Lanqin was full of smiles. She pretended not to hear what her daughter-in-law said and told her son everything that happened in the afternoon, emphasizing that Meng Xiaoying had bullied her unreasonably.
"I see."
After Lu Jingchuan said these four words, he picked up the dish that his wife had served to Political Commissar Zhao, turned around and strode out.
Political Commissar Zhao had just arrived home and was reading the notebook that Jiang Yaping had sent him. When he saw the feedback from various parties, his brows were furrowed into a knot.
Onions, garlic, cabbage and radishes are nothing. There are also face towels, foot cloths, urinals, medicine jars, pickle jars, clothes, shoes, embroidery needles, and even paper airplanes and toy wooden guns and slingshots for children, with crooked words written on them filling up two pages.
When Lu Jingchuan came in, he saw his dark face and handed the dish to Yu Ximei, "Sister-in-law, Linglong's twice-cooked pork, it will be a good side dish for dinner."
"Oh, thanks to Linglong, we have delicious food tonight."
Yu Ximei took the bowl and quickly took it to the kitchen stove to warm it up. She also poured him a cup of hot tea. "Deputy Captain Lu, did Linglong tell you about this afternoon?"
"My mom just said that."
Lu Jingchuan was reading the paper that Political Commissar Zhao handed him. When he saw what was written on it, his brows furrowed and his expression turned grim: "Yuan Anbin's wife and mother-in-law are really outrageous."
"Ah, Deputy Battalion Commander Yuan is also unlucky. It's hard for him to have such a wife."
"He had tried to discipline them at home before, but it didn't work. He even hit Chen Eryan once out of frustration, and that only made things worse."
"Deputy Battalion Commander Yuan returned all the things they had stolen and even went to each family to apologize."
"They don't know how to restrain themselves at all, and they don't care about his career prospects. He's also very tired. His mental state has been much worse in the past two months. I heard that he sleeps with his son every night after training, and now he won't talk to them."
