Since last month, Gu Qinghan's salary passbook has been handed over to Wen Nuan for safekeeping. The family's expenses are basically handled by Wen Nuan. Even if Gu Qinghan needs money, he will ask her now, even if it is just to buy a bag of candy.
After Gu Qinghan's allowance was paid last month, Wen Nuan went to the post office and sent 20 yuan to Zhao Wuzhu according to the amount he had previously remitted home.
She had sent the January allowance on time a few days ago, so Zhao Wuzhu should have had some money.
Twenty yuan for household expenses is actually enough to cover the expenses in his hometown. After all, except for Zhao Wuzhu who is unemployed, Gu Qingsong is also an adult in the Gu family. He himself has become a team leader in the soy sauce factory.
Although Wen Nuan didn't know how much Gu Qingsong's monthly salary was, she knew it when she was in her hometown. Gu Qingsong never gave his salary to Zhao Wuzhu. He spent it himself or saved it.
However, Zhao Wuzhu repeatedly asked Gu Qinghan for money, sometimes twice a month, and sometimes three times. Gu Qinghan was also a filial child. It might be because he had been in the army for a long time and didn't know the situation at home, so whenever Zhao Wuzhu asked him for money, he would send it back home as long as he had money on hand.
After she married Gu Qinghan, Wen Nuan had lived in the Gu family for so long that she could tell that Zhao Wuzhu treated Gu Qingsong as a treasure in her hand, caring for him and protecting him as if the whole family revolved around him.
Normally, even if Gu Qingsong didn't work or did something wrong, Zhao Wuzhu would turn a blind eye.
Even for the household expenses, Zhao Wuzhu relied on Gu Qinghan's allowance alone, but was reluctant to use Gu Qingsong's salary, fearing that he would not have enough.
Gu Qinghan and Gu Qingsong actually have a younger sister named Gu Qinglan. However, because Zhao Wuzhu favors boys over girls and loves Gu Qingsong very much, before going to the countryside, he secretly went to the street office and asked someone to change Gu Qingsong's name on the list to Gu Qinglan, who was only 17 years old at the time.
After Gu Qinglan found out, she cried for several days. Zhao Wuzhu even threatened her that if she didn't go to the countryside, he would marry her to a mute from the next street.
In a fit of anger, Gu Qinglan asked someone to change her place of work and fled far away. She never contacted her family since then.
However, before going to the countryside, Gu Qinglan actually had a very good relationship with Gu Qingsong. It was only because Zhao Wuzhu was too partial that a rift arose between the two siblings.
I heard all these things when I lived in the staff housing estate.
But what makes Wen Nuan most angry now is that what does Gu Qingsong’s marriage have to do with her man
Did Gu Qingsong help when they got married
As far as she knew, Gu Qingsong's current job at the soy sauce factory was done by Gu Qinghan who had to find a classmate to help him, and this was also what Zhao Wuzhu asked Gu Qinghan to do.
But the original book mentioned that Gu Qingsong would resign after working in the soy sauce factory for only a few years. This was also his first setback after marrying Lin Meizhi.
But Wen Nuan didn't want to care about what would happen to the two of them in the future. After Gu Qinghan returned home that evening, she told him about this matter.
Because it has snowed occasionally recently, Gu Qinghan comes back earlier now, and Wen Nuan also prepares dinner early.
The weather in North City is cold, so Wen Nuan makes some soup every day to warm up Gu Qinghan. Gu Qinghan has training these days, and if he doesn't eat enough in winter, he will not be able to keep warm.
Tonight Wen Nuan made seaweed egg drop soup, stir-fried pork belly with black fungus and chili peppers, and spicy and sour shredded potatoes.
The seaweed was brought back from my hometown, and there was a little bit left, which was almost finished. The black fungus was exchanged at a nearby village. This place happened to be close to the mountains, so there were a lot of dried black fungus and mushrooms. Lele and Gu Qinghan both liked to eat black fungus, so Wen Nuan would cook it for them from time to time.
Wen Nuan filled two bowls of rice and also two bowls of soup and placed them on the table.
Before Gu Qinghan came back, Wen Nuan had already fed Lele. Now she was sitting in the stroller playing with the rattle that Li Daxiang gave her. She was having so much fun that she didn't even look at Gu Qinghan when he came home.
Wen Nuan had previously told Gu Qinghan not to interrupt a child when she was concentrating on playing with toys or when she was playing by herself.
So when Gu Qinghan saw that the child ignored him, he simply got some water to wash his hands and then prepared to eat.
When the two of them were sitting at the dinner table, Wen Nuan said directly to Gu Qinghan: "Your brother is getting married, and your mother asked you to send money back."
Gu Qinghan picked up a piece of lean meat for Wen Nuan, and without even raising his eyelids, he replied, "Have you sent the money this month? If you have, you don't need to pay attention to her."
Wen Nuan looked at him in slight surprise, paused for a second while eating, and then said, "I sent it a few days ago."
To be honest, Wen Nuan didn't want Gu Qinghan to send money. Why did Gu Qingsong need money from him, his eldest brother, for his marriage
Gu Qinghan is not his father!
Now that both brothers have started their own families, what if Gu Qinghan asked them for money
Not a single hair!
Gu Qinghan looked up and met her warm eyes, then said, "Before we came to Beicheng, Qingsong asked me for money and said that his girlfriend, Comrade Lin, was pregnant with his child."
Wen Nuan paused while eating and waited for him to continue.
Perhaps because he saw Wen Nuan's gossipy expression, Gu Qinghan started talking about what happened that night. This was probably the longest speech Wen Nuan had ever heard him speak.
The night before leaving for North City, Gu Qingsong found Gu Qinghan and said that Lin Meizhi was pregnant and the gift money of 200 yuan must be paid, otherwise the child would be aborted. Gu Qingsong shamelessly begged Gu Qinghan to borrow 100 yuan. Zhao Wuzhu had already prepared 100 yuan of gift money, but was short of 100 yuan.
However, Gu Qinghan rejected it outright, saying that Lin Meizhi's gift money was much higher than Wen Nuan's, and Wen Nuan would not be able to hold her head up high at home in the future, so the gift money could not be more than 120 yuan, which was fair to everyone.
The two broke up that night, but before dawn the next day, Gu Qingsong found Gu Qinghan again and finally compromised and gave Lin Meizhi a gift of 120 yuan. However, Gu Qingsong wanted to ask Gu Qinghan for the remaining 20 yuan.
Gu Qinghan said to Gu Qingsong: "You are a grown man, but you can't even take out 20 yuan, why do you want to marry a wife?"
Wen Nuan laughed when she heard this. She had always thought that since Gu Qinghan took such good care of the family, he would definitely help with the twenty yuan without even thinking about it.
Who knew that before leaving his hometown, Gu Qinghan severely insulted Gu Qingsong.
That’s a great rebuttal!
Indeed, although Gu Qingsong's salary is not as high as Gu Qinghan's, he is still a team leader after all, and he must have 30 yuan a month.
It's just twenty dollars, but she still asks her man for it. How shameless!
Wen Nuan smiled in an unpresentable manner. Even the little kid who was playing with the rattle looked over at her, gazing at her with curiosity in his big eyes.
Wen Nuan said, "I thought you would give it to him directly."
Gu Qinghan glanced at Wen Nuan, and then explained to her: "I'm not stupid, it's just that you and Le Le were both in your hometown before, and I really didn't need much money in the army, so it's reasonable to give it to the family expenses. But Qingsong is a man, if he doesn't even have the ability to shoulder family responsibilities, then this marriage is really not worth it."
Wen Nuan really didn't expect that the good-natured Gu Qinghan would think this way, so she asked, "What if your mother can't wait for you to send money and calls you again?"
Zhao Wuzhu and Gu Qingsong must have tried every possible means to achieve their goal.
Gu Qinghan thought for a moment, picked up a handful of potato shreds and put them in the warm bowl, saying, "Your body is not well yet, and the New Year is coming soon. You will need money in many places. Keep the money."
Then Gu Qinghan added calmly, "Starting next month, you don't have to send my mom 20 yuan. Now Qingsong and I have both started our own families, so we'll just give the same amount of money as Qingsong gives to our family."
Wen Nuan smiled and nodded, "Okay."
Then Wen Nuan said, "It's your brother's wedding after all, so as his brother and sister-in-law, we have to send him a wedding gift."
Gu Qinghan nodded slightly: "Just follow the arrangements."
"Yes, I will arrange it." Wen Nuan said with a smile.
Suddenly, Gu Qinghan stretched out his warm palm and grasped Wen Nuan's slightly cool fingertips, staring at her with scorching eyes, "Wu Nuan, I won't let you suffer with me."
For some reason, Wen Nuan's eyes suddenly felt a little hot, as if something wet was swirling in her eyes. She nodded heavily and said, "I believe you. Let's live our own lives from now on."
Gu Qinghan looked at her, his handsome face slowly approaching, and she could feel the man's hot breath spraying over her warm and delicate nose.
Wen Nuan heard her own heartbeat like a drum, subconsciously closed her eyes, and raised her chin slightly—
"ah-"
Lele suddenly screamed, and Wen Nuan was so scared that she straightened her waist instantly, and a blush instantly appeared on her fair face.
Wen Nuan immediately stood up and said quickly, "Let me see what's wrong with Le Le."
I saw the little girl sitting in the cart, stretching her little hands out of the cart bed, and dropped the rattle she was playing with outside. No wonder she got angry.
Wen Nuan picked up the rattle and put it back in the little guy's hands. Lele took back his favorite rattle, smiled at Wen Nuan again, and called "Mom~Mom" twice.
Wen Nuan heard the little girl's cry very clearly this time, so she immediately picked her up and gave her a big kiss on her round, white and tender face.
"Qinghan, did you hear that just now?"
"LeLe called me mom, and this time she called me so clearly!"
The little girl seemed to know that Wen Nuan was praising her. She opened her little hands and twisted her neck. She rubbed her little head against her neck. The soft hair on her head made Wen Nuan's heart soften. She called out in a baby voice, "Mom~"
Gu Qinghan heard the little guy call "Mom~" so clearly, and the little bit of beauty just now instantly turned into joy.
He also stood up, walked towards Wen Nuan and the child, and hugged them both in his arms: "I heard it, our Lele is awesome."
The little guy raised his clumsy little head, looked at Wen Nuan with his big black eyes, then looked at Gu Qinghan, and suddenly narrowed his eyes and laughed loudly.
Then he stretched out his little arms towards Gu Qinghan, wanting him to hold him and fly away.
Wen Nuan simply stuffed the slightly heavy Le Le into his hand and kissed the little guy on the cheek: "You play with Daddy for a while, Mommy will wash the dishes."
As long as Gu Qinghan is at home, Wen Nuan rarely washes dishes. Although there is a stove at home, the kitchen is still a bit cold. Even if she uses warm water, the water will get cold very quickly.
However, after taking care of the little one all day, Wen Nuan really doesn't want to take care of him at night, so she is now rushing to wash the dishes. Then before going to bed, she will pretend to pick up a book and read it at the bedside, waiting for Gu Qinghan to coax the child to sleep.
It was the same tonight. Wen Nuan drank the Chinese medicine, soaked her feet, and then picked up the book that Gu Qinghan left at home to read.
After an unknown amount of time, Gu Qinghan suddenly reached out and took her book, and asked, "Don't read it. The light at night is a bit dim, and it's not good for your eyes."
Because it is a tungsten filament lamp, the light is warm yellow, and the wattage of lamps in this era is also low, so it can only provide a rough illumination, and you have to use a desk lamp to read.
However, Gu Qinghan also discovered that Wen Nuan was not really reading, because she just picked up a book called "Wind Tunnel Test", which was his training book. From the time she took the book until the child fell asleep, she only flipped through two pages.
Wen Nuan yawned slowly and looked at the little guy beside her who was sleeping soundly, with his two little hands clenched into fists and raised high on both sides of his little head. He looked so cute that people wanted to take a bite.
Especially her long eyelashes, which look like a small fan, which she inherited from her father. Her little mouth sucks them from time to time, and they look so pink.
Wen Nuan lowered her voice and looked at Gu Qinghan with a smile: "You are amazing. You coaxed the little guy to sleep again!"
Gu Qinghan met Wen Nuan's cunning eyes and his Adam's apple rolled. "Well, let's go to bed early too."
Wen Nuan had been feeling sleepy for a long time. Gu Qinghan's professional books were so dry and difficult to understand that they worked better than a lullaby. She dozed off several times and finally could sleep.
When Gu Qinghan saw Wen Nuan lying down, he also fell asleep. However, when the two looked at each other, he couldn't help feeling embarrassed.
Wen Nuan was just about to turn over and face the child, but Gu Qinghan reached out and grabbed her arm, then wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her tight into his arms. His deep black eyes darkened, and he lowered his head to kiss her soft, pink lips.
Wen Nuan looked at the handsome face so close to her, and her heart was pounding so hard that she couldn't even think straight.
I said dumbly: "Good night."
Wen Nuan turned around again.
Gu Qinghan tucked the quilt in for her and said, "Good night, go to sleep."

Province G.
Zhao Wuzhu went to the post office for several days in a row to see if Gu Qinghan had sent her money, but apart from the twenty yuan at the beginning of the month, there was nothing left.
Gu Qingsong was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. Seeing Zhao Wuzhu coming out from the counter, he asked hurriedly, "How is it? Did big brother send the money?"
Zhao Wuzhu was also annoyed. For her, this was no longer a question of money. Rather, ever since Gu Qinghan took Wen Nuan to North City, he was like a kite with a broken string, and she could no longer be controlled.
She poked Gu Qingsong on the head in annoyance and scolded him, "Look at you, why are you pretending to be so rich? Can't you measure your own weight? How dare you agree to Lin Meizhi to hold a wedding banquet at her house?"
It's fine. Now is not a particularly difficult time. Who doesn't set up a few tables for a wedding? But this unfilial son actually promised Lin Meizhi that there would be pork, fish, tofu, eggs...
Isn't this just shooting oneself in the foot
She didn't even know if she could finish eating that thing in a month, but this thing is great, and she said that these things would be included in the wedding banquet!
But she was so mad at me.
Gu Qingsong immediately shrank his head and pouted: "Isn't this because my elder brother sent you money before? How do I know that you gave the money to grandpa? You knew I was getting married, but you still gave the money away!"
When Zhao Wuzhu heard this, she immediately became even more furious, pointing at Gu Qingsong and scolding, "Doesn't your grandpa need to take medicine? You unfilial son, how dare you say that to me?"
Gu Qingsong was also anxious now. He had long been dissatisfied with Zhao Wuzhu's frequent support for her mother's family. He snorted, "Mom, grandpa's medicine didn't cost much. He gave it to my uncle! I don't care. Why don't you call your eldest brother again? Maybe he didn't receive the telegram?"
Zhao Wuzhu sighed and gritted her teeth and said, "I owed you a debt in my previous life! Fight, fight, fight, go and line up."
It took Zhao Wuzhu three days to get on the phone before she answered Gu Qinghan's phone call.
"Mom? Why are you calling?" Gu Qinghan was looking at the report. In fact, he had expected that his family would call him sooner or later.
Zhao Wuzhu sighed, "Finally the call got through. Boss, I want to ask you, did you receive the telegram from mom? Why haven't you sent the money yet? Qingsong will have a wedding in ten days, and the Lin family also said that Qingsong must set up a few tables, and there must be pork and fish..."
Telephone communications in this era were not that good, the line would often be disconnected, and sometimes you couldn't hear clearly what the other party was saying.
However, Gu Qinghan roughly guessed what Zhao Wuzhu would say next.
Gu Qinghan kept looking at the paper in his hand, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "Mom, I can't help much with Qingsong's wedding, and I need money here too. But I have prepared some gifts for Qingsong and his sister-in-law."
Zhao Wuzhu was furious when he heard this and asked loudly, "You need money? What money do you need in the army? Food, lodging and other necessities are all provided by the army. Where else do you need money?"
"When I first came to Beicheng, I bought a lot of things for my family, and my children didn't have enough clothes. I even borrowed money and tickets from my former political commissar in the provincial army. Now I'm really broke."
As soon as Gu Qinghan finished speaking, the phone was disconnected. Zhao Wuzhu exclaimed and wanted to call back, but found that she had to reconnect the line.
Thinking that it took two days to make this call, Zhao Wuzhu hung up the phone immediately.
Gu Qingsong saw Zhao Wuzhu hung up the phone and ran over in a hurry: "Mom, is the call connected? What did big brother say?"
Zhao Wuzhu shouted fiercely: "Your elder brother said he has no money!"
"What do you mean he still needs to borrow money from the political commissar of the provincial army? No, I don't believe that the boss has no money! Qingsong, find some time to ask your brother's former comrades in the army to see if he really needs to borrow money from others!"
"Or is it that lazy bitch who didn't let him send money home?"
*
North city.
In the family compound, Wen Nuan received a package. When she opened it, she found that it contained some oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, including oyster sauce, soy sauce, seafood sauce and chu-hou sauce. Wen Nuan recognized the brand; it was from the factory of Gu Qingsong.
Sure enough, there was a letter in the package, but it was addressed to Gu Qinghan.
She couldn't open it casually.
When Gu Qinghan came back from the group and saw the sauce sent by Gu Qingsong, he frowned and opened the letter.
He was simply saying that he was waiting to use the money for the wedding, and the previous betrothal money had been settled, but Gu Qingsong also said that he had promised Lin Meizhi to set up a few tables at her parents' house to entertain her relatives, so he asked Gu Qinghan to borrow thirty yuan and meat tickets.
"My mother just called me, don't worry about them." Gu Qinghan folded the letter and put it back into the envelope.
"What did she say?" Wen Nuan asked curiously.
Seeing how curious she was, Gu Qinghan repeated what Zhao Wuzhu said, "They said that they would hold a wedding banquet at the girl's house, and that there must be pork and fish. I think Gu Qingsong must have made a random promise to his wife."
Wen Nuan frowned, thinking about how anxious they were to get married, and bought some candies.
It seems that Gu Qingsong loves Lin Meizhi very much, but he doesn't need to be so pretentious. Doesn't he still have to ask Gu Qinghan for help in the end
He made a promise to someone here, and now he comes to ask Gu Qinghan for money and tickets.
It's a pity that he would get what he wants if he spends so much money on others!
Wen Nuan was a little angry. She felt that it was really unfair for Gu Qinghan to help the family all these years. Not only did he not get a single word from his mother, but his brother seemed to have become accustomed to relying on him. If he didn't help just once, it would be as if they were no longer a family.
She said angrily, "You should do the work according to your ability. Your brother keeps pretending to be rich, but in the end he still has to ask you for money. If it were the other way around, he would have cursed you if you asked him for money! Besides, he has a salary too. If he really wants to marry her, it's not too much to spend a month's salary on a wedding banquet. He has money, but he still has to ask you for money every time. You really spoil him! You can't be soft-hearted this time. Don't give him a penny!"
In fact, the money that Gu Qinghan sent back home was already enough. According to the food Zhao Wuzhu used to eat at home, where they only saw meat once a month, he should have saved a lot of money.
Why does Gu Qinghan have to send money home every day
Wen Nuan thought she was not a stingy person. Whenever Gu Qinghan wanted to send household expenses to Zhao Wuzhu, she had remitted the money on time for the past two months.
But now Gu Qingsong also wants Gu Qinghan to pay for the wedding!
So shameless!
Gu Qinghan looked at Wen Nuan's face, which was a little red from anger, and suddenly realized that she was worried about him, so he smiled: "I'll take care of this matter. I won't give Qingsong any more money. We'll both start our own families and take care of our own lives in the future. You keep these sauces and use them as a housewarming gift for us when we come to Beicheng."
Wen Nuan knew that Gu Qinghan was serious this time. He would definitely not intervene if he said so. So she didn't need to worry about it and put all the sauces sent by Gu Qingsong in the kitchen.
These sauces arrived just in time. She had thought that if she didn't order any sauces during the Chinese New Year, the pork would be wasted when it was shared.
It has been snowing during this period, and the supply and marketing cooperatives in the north city don’t have such a wide variety of sauces for sale. If you want to buy so many ingredients, you have to go to Beijing.
Thinking of the bad experience of sitting in a military truck for six or seven hours, Wen Nuan missed the mutton hotpot but didn't dare to think about it anymore.
Especially now it snows a lot.
The next day, Gu Qinghan woke her up early in the morning and lowered his voice: "I have to go on a mission, you have to take good care of yourself and Lele at home."
All the warm sleepiness disappeared at once. This was Gu Qinghan's first mission after coming to Beicheng for two months. He immediately became nervous and no longer sleepy.
Because it was still early, the room was still a little dim. Wen Nuan looked at Gu Qinghan's blurry face and asked, "How many days will you be gone?"
"I don't know yet." Gu Qinghan stretched out his fingers to tidy up her messy bangs, and then said: "If you have any problems, go to the 76th Regiment to find Li Daxiang, don't force yourself."
Gu Qinghan had actually made all the arrangements, but he was still worried about leaving Wen Nuan and the child at home.
Wen Nuan moved her body, reached out and hugged Gu Qinghan who was standing beside the bed. His waist was very strong without any fat, and she felt very safe just hugging him.
"Gu Qinghan, you have to come back safely, do you know?"
After Wen Nuan came to North City, she found out that many young girls were unwilling to marry pilots, no matter how high their allowances were.
Because the work of a pilot is full of danger, once something goes wrong, it is almost a 100% accident.
Gu Qinghan's mission was kept secret, so she didn't dare to ask any more questions. She just said to him again, "Lele and I will be waiting for you at home."
Gu Qinghan's Adam's apple rolled, and he bent down and kissed her smooth forehead: "Wife, wait for me to come back."
Wen Nuan nodded: "I will take good care of myself and Le Le, you don't have to worry, just focus on your task."
Gu Qinghan had good eyesight and had long since adapted to the dimness in the room. He looked at her warm and pretty eyes, her small nose, and her long black hair that was like a waterfall.
He did something he had wanted to do a long time ago. He stretched out his index finger, picked up a strand of hair, and let it slide through his fingertips.
Gu Qinghan patiently explained, "I bought two candles and placed them on the bedside table. I also placed a flashlight in the living room. The batteries have been replaced with new ones, so you don't have to worry about running out of power."
"The wild ginseng is almost done. You can put it away tonight. Remember to cut off some of it when you boil the medicine."
"I folded Lele's diapers and put them in a wooden box. I also washed her coat last night and hung it on the clothes rack. You don't need to change her coat these days. I'll change it when I come back and then wash it..."
Wen Nuan really felt like she was being taken care of like a child, and couldn't help but smile: "I know everything. When you come back, bring me some delicious food and a toy for Lele!"
Gu Qinghan nodded, bent down, and kissed her warm lips: "Okay."
Bring delicious food to my wife and toys to Lele.
Not long after Gu Qinghan left, the bugle sounded. Wen Nuan couldn't sleep anymore, so she simply got up, washed up, and prepared to make some breakfast. However, when she came out to the living room, she saw two bowls of porridge being heated by the stove.
Not long after Wen Nuan had breakfast, Le Le woke up. She prepared a meal for the child and fed her some porridge. It was almost noon.
During the winter, there are hardly any people outside the housing estate.
Although Wen Nuan has gradually gotten used to life in the staff quarters in North City, she still feels a little uncomfortable without Gu Qinghan around.
In the afternoon, Wen Nuan took her child to the house of her neighbor, Guihua, and knitted a sweater with her. However, knitting a sweater was a little difficult, so under the guidance of Guihua, she first learned to knit a scarf.
However, there was not much warm wool, only enough to knit one. As soon as Gu Qinghan left, her mind was full of him. Thinking that the wool was gray, she knitted one for him first.
On the second day after Gu Qinghan went on a mission, sister-in-law Juxiang also came with her two children.
"Sister Nuan, Deputy Captain Gu is not at home, so I came here specially to accompany you." Deng Juxiang was wrapped tightly, leaving only a pair of eyes visible. When she entered the house, her shoulders and hat were covered with fine snow. She was holding the hands of her two daughters, who were seven or eight years old, and were also wrapped tightly.
Wen Nuan didn't expect that Sister Juxiang knew that Gu Qinghan was on a mission and came to accompany her specially. She felt a little touched.
"Sister Juxiang, Xiaodong, Xiaomei, please come in. It's very cold outside, isn't it?" Fortunately, Wen Nuan usually prepared some ginger tea or monk fruit tea, so she could just greet them now.
Seeing that the two children had already accepted the tea, Deng Juxiang reminded them, "You should thank Aunt Xiao Nuan."
Xiaodong and Xiaomei held the teacups and felt their palms slowly warming up. Looking at the beautiful Nuan who looked like a fairy, they politely said, "Thank you, Aunt Xiaonuan."
Wen Nuan smiled: "How nice."
Then she walked over to the chest of drawers in the living room, took out some peach cakes, and placed them in front of Xiaodong and Xiaomei: "Come, have some peach cakes."
Wen Nuan had just finished speaking when Le Le, who was sitting in the stroller and playing by herself, looked over. Seeing her take out the peach cakes, she yelled "Ah Ya" twice, waving her little arms in the air as if to say that she wanted to eat some too.
Xiaodong and Xiaomei looked at the cute Lele and couldn't help but walk over, "Auntie, can we play with Lele?"
Wen Nuan was very happy. Although Lele was still young, he loved playing with older brothers and sisters the most. Even the older ones didn't like to play with the younger ones, especially since Lele couldn't walk or talk yet.
It's snowing now and there are even fewer people walking around. The little guy hasn't played with the older kids for several days.
Now that two little sisters have finally arrived, little Lele's eyes are bright and he looks at them with a smile, his face looking like a chubby ball.
Everyone who sees it wants to pinch it and try out the plump feel.
The children were playing with each other, while Wen Nuan was chatting with Deng Juxiang. Sister Guihua heard Deng Juxiang's voice and came over.
As soon as Sister Guihua came in, she asked gossiping questions one after another: "Have you heard about it?"
"The pork from Liu Meili's house disappeared. They said it was frozen in the yard, but it was gone the next day."
Sister Guihua whispered to Wen Nuan again: "Xiao Nuan, is your wild ginseng okay? Don't let anyone get caught up in it!"
Wen Nuan put it away last night, and she didn't tell anyone about digging up the wild ginseng, so no one should be thinking about it.
However, after Sister Guihua and the others left, Wen Nuan still went to take a look in the box.
Fortunately, it's still there.
