Lou Lu only goes back to Beijing once every few years.
After hearing the news, his good brothers who had grown up with him naturally wanted to get together with him.
But in the past few days, he devoted all his time to his parents and wife and children, so he declined one by one.
Nowadays, the women and children in the family are too tired to go shopping after running around for several days.
It was a rare opportunity for Lou Luhui to have some free time, so it was difficult for him to refuse his friend's invitation.
So that night, when he received the call again, he answered it directly.
After hanging up the phone, I returned to the bedroom.
I didn't want to see my wife sitting with her feet up, eating snacks with the kids.
When they saw him come in, the three mothers, one big and two small, all put their hands behind their backs in unison, pretending to cover up their mistakes as if they had done nothing.
Lou Luhui was speechless. If you want to hide something, you should be more careful. Look at the snack crumbs at the corner of the mouth, and then look at the mouth that is chewing secretly.
However, despite the countless complaints in his heart, when he met his wife's innocent eyes, Lou Luhui inexplicably had the illusion that he had raised three children.
He looked at the watch on his wrist. It was already 8:30 in the evening. "Haven't you finished washing up? Why are you eating so late? Aren't you full?"
Tian Mi did not answer, but instead complained first: "Why didn't you make any footsteps?"
She didn't hear anything just now.
Lou Lu replied angrily and amusedly: "Is it possible that you are eating too seriously?"
Hearing this, Tian Mi choked and simply gave up, smiled sweetly at the man, and then openly stuffed the last piece of dessert into her mouth, then stood up and took the children to brush their teeth.
When the mother and her two children come back again.
Lou Luhui had already cleaned up all the snack crumbs that had fallen on the floor, and was half-leaning on the bed reading a book.
Seeing his wife and children come back, he put down his book, and tacitly understood that he and his wife each held a child and began to coax them to sleep.
Although the little ones didn't go out to play today, they were still making quite a lot of noise at home.
Not only did my grandparents buy me a bunch of toys, but even the elders in the family compound or military families came to my house and gave me a lot of toys in the past few days.
There were new and old things. Where had Zhenzhu and Beibei ever seen such a scene
He spent the whole day surrounded by toys and was almost going crazy with joy.
Having consumed too much energy during the day, they are much easier to coax at night. Look, in just a few minutes, the children fell asleep one after another.
The couple carefully placed the child on the small bed specially prepared by Ms. Zhong, and carefully covered the child with a thin quilt. After staring at the child for a while, the two lay back on the bed.
Lou Luhui hugged his wife and kissed her out of habit before asking, "Are you bored?"
After being married for several years, he had already discovered that whenever his wife felt bored, she liked to find something to eat.
When she was on the island, she would go to the sea to play for an hour or two every day. Sometimes when she was resting, she would go for longer.
Now, in this unfamiliar military compound, it is indeed a bit boring except for my mother and Aunt Gu who I can talk to.
Tian Mi rubbed her husband's neck and said lazily, "Only a little bit."
"Then I'll take you out to play tomorrow?"
"I want to go see my third sister again. It's been five or six days. I don't know how the patient is doing. The little girl didn't even call me."
Lou Luhui patted his wife's back soothingly: "Then after visiting Third Sister tomorrow, will you accompany me to go somewhere?"
Tian Mi raised her head curiously and looked at the person: "Where are you going? The phone call just now? Or your old friend?"
"Yes, I haven't been back for many years. He knows I'm in Beijing and calls me almost every day. It's not good to not come, so we made an appointment to get together tomorrow night."
"Are there a lot of people?" Tian Mi didn't want to go because she didn't know anyone there.
"Not many, maybe six or seven. We're just close friends. They all sent us gifts when we got married."
After hearing this, Tian Mi couldn't refuse anymore, but... "Why don't the children go? Not only is it inconvenient to bring them, but it also feels like asking for a gift from someone."
Lou Luhui stroked his wife's waist with his big hand and laughed when he heard it: "No one would think so. We are all good friends. But it's better not to bring the children. This way we can go and come back quickly."
Except for Zhou Jianshe.
It was the first time that Tian Mi appeared in front of her husband's friends.
So after lunch the next day, she decided to dress up a little.
Although she didn't wear any makeup, she washed her hair, shaved a few eyebrows, and reshaped them.
Seeing her making such a fuss, Lou Luhui, who was heating milk for the children, wondered: "Didn't you wash your hair last night?"
It's amazing how clean his wife is. She takes a shower almost every day, but she is lazy when it comes to washing her hair. Every time she does that, she asks him for help. It's the first time he's seen Tiantian washing her hair so diligently.
Well, we weren’t so particular when we first got married.
Tian Mi rolled her eyes at her husband and said, "You don't understand. It won't be fluffy the next day."
She originally just wanted to wash her bangs, but there was no shower at the moment and washing her hair was too troublesome.
But then she thought that it only happens once every few years, so she had to look beautiful.
Alas, I work so hard, all because of my vanity!
Lou Luhui really didn’t understand what fluffy feeling was, but after his wife’s hair was dry, he saw her white fingers flying and she quickly braided a beautiful hairstyle.
Although I still don’t understand what fluffy means, it does look better.
Girls are really amazing. With just a few strokes, they can give themselves a nice hairstyle. It looks like a pigtail, but it is quite different when you look closely.
Lou Luhui, who has a straight male aesthetic, stood there for a long time before he wanted to touch it out of curiosity.
I didn't expect that as soon as I stretched out my hand, I was hit.
There was a "pop" sound, and Zhong Yuxiu's hand was a few seconds faster than her daughter-in-law's eye roll.
She glared at her son and said, "What are you doing? Don't mess it up."
Then she said to her daughter-in-law who had already fixed her hair with great interest: "Come on, mom will help you pick out clothes. Girls should be pretty."
Tian Mi didn't refuse. There were only a few colors anyway. The styles of clothes available these days were too limited. If she was a little too high-profile, people would easily find fault with her.
When the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were choosing clothes, Zhong Yuxiu complained several times: "I don't know what's wrong with the environment now. In the past, women looked so good in cheongsams. They showed off their figures and made them look graceful when they walked. I found an old tailor and made dozens of different ones for her. By the way, there were many patterns and colors of fabrics at that time. Later, we were not allowed to wear them. At least we changed into a decent-looking braid, which was also beautiful. I like beautiful clothes, so I made dozens more. But they haven't been worn for long, and they are no longer comfortable to wear. They are all in the bottom of the box, which is so annoying. Nowadays, if you look at the streets, at least seven or eight out of ten people are either wearing black or navy blue. White is rare. Anyway, I am getting more and more confused about this world."
As she spoke, she had already picked out a pure cotton white shirt with a doll collar and small puff sleeves from her clothes and handed it to her daughter-in-law: "Try this one."
It’s true, my mother-in-law has been a refined person all her life and has a good taste. Among all the clothes she can wear, Tian Mi likes this one the most.
Sure enough, after putting it on, her already sweet face became at least several degrees sweeter.
Tian Mi fiddled with her collar in front of the mirror and said curiously, "I've seen people wearing blouses on the street several times recently."
Among a pile of black, white and gray, such bright colors and styles suddenly appear, which is really beautiful.
Zhong Yuxiu was struggling to decide whether to wear more conservative trousers or a slightly prettier navy blue skirt.
Hearing this, he said without even looking up, "That's an individual case. Either their family background is good, or they are just stupid. For example, if our family really dressed like that, someone would definitely report us in a few days, saying that we are petty bourgeois."
As she spoke, Ms. Zhong, who was unable to make a decision, handed the skirt and pants to her daughter-in-law: "Try them all on, and wear whichever one looks good."
"Can I wear a skirt?" Tian Mi didn't rush to put it on, but stood in front of the mirror and gestured twice.
In fact, I am more satisfied with the skirt. After all, the shirt is cute in style and it will definitely suit me when I wear it with the skirt.
Hmm. There is a sense of innocence that comes with returning to school: "This dress is also suitable for my third sister. Mom, do you have any more material? I'll make a set for Xinxin as well."
After a few years, Tian Mi has gotten to know her mother-in-law's character very well.
Ms. Zhong hates it most when people close to her are nagging and unresponsive.
Sure enough, after hearing what her daughter-in-law said, she smiled and agreed: "Yes, I can make two more. Xinxin is about the same height as you, so you don't need to measure the size again. By the way, I remember that girl will be 20 soon, right? You have to keep a close eye on her, there must be a lot of people who are interested in her."
It's not that Zhong Yuxiu is worth her own money. Tian Xin is pretty and has a good personality. She also has a great master as her teacher. She will definitely have a good future. In addition, she has two brothers-in-law with great conditions behind her. It's easy for her to be targeted by people with ulterior motives.
As for the third sister's relationship, Tian Mi still had the same idea as before: "It's up to her. It's best to get married a little later, but if you meet the right one, it doesn't matter if you get married early. Of course, this right one must pass the tests of me and Huihui, as well as the eldest sister and her husband. Oh, I almost forgot, sister Nan and brother-in-law Jianshe also need to help give their opinions."
Hearing this, Zhong Yuxiu patted her daughter-in-law in amusement and said, "How can anyone be perfect? With your screening method, how can you find the right one? You might as well just let Xinxin never get married."
Tian Mi chuckled: "It's not that I want to find someone who is perfect. That kind of Mr. Perfect is scary. I just think Xinxin is timid and doesn't like complicated social interactions. The other person must at least understand her personality and like her personality. And he must be able to protect her."
At this point, worried that what he said was too general, Tian Mi also gave an example: "For example, my third sister, her personality is simple, even a little soft. This kind of girl can easily arouse other people's desire to protect her, but after marriage, the man may dislike his wife for not being independent enough and dragging him down. Anyway, I can't accept it, and I can't understand such people. Can the points of liking and disliking be the same? Just because of the difference in status before and after marriage, you can change from liking to disliking. For example, some people like straightforward women, but after marriage, they will dislike their wives for not being gentle enough. If the man is like this, my third sister must not be allowed to contact him, she is so timid."
The daughter-in-law's words were still too idealistic. Zhong Yuxiu sighed: "In fact, this kind of people are the majority."
Not everyone is lucky.
For example, her daughter Nan Nan, she and her husband also handled it very well.
But, people's hearts are hidden.
Tian Mi had no idea what her mother-in-law was feeling. After some gestures, she hung the pants back in the closet.
Following her heart, she still prefers skirts that reach the ankles, which are very conservative and low-key.
As she picked up her skirt to change, she concluded, "Mom, there's no rush. Xinxin is still young. Besides, if we can find such a good one, Xinxin can definitely do it too."
If she really can't find one, considering that girl's fear of trouble, it's possible that she won't get married.
However, she didn't say this.
When Tian Mi tucked her white shirt into her skirt and walked out, Zhong Yuxiu's eyes immediately lit up.
She pulled her daughter-in-law to look at her: "This is it. You don't need to change the pants. The skirt looks better with a pair of round-toed leather shoes. You are young, and wearing this will make you look younger. You look like a high school student at most."
There is no woman who doesn't like to be praised for her beauty and youth.
Tian Mi was no exception. She smiled and said, "If I walk with Huihui like this, won't it be a generation gap?"
Hearing this, Zhong Yuxiu smiled meaningfully: "Huihui's father is also 8 years older than me. I'll tell you a secret. He applies vanishing cream every morning and evening to maintain his skin. He is afraid of being embarrassed and will not go out until the fragrance fades."
Tian Mi didn't expect that Commander Lou, who seemed kind and wise, was actually like this in private. She couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Le He was very happy for a while before he said with approval: "That's right, I'll let Hui Hui learn from Dad too."
Lou Lu came up to urge people to go downstairs to drink milk tea, and listened to everything the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law said. Haha.
At 3:30 in the afternoon, Tian Mi and her husband prepared to go to the restaurant.
The couple had already agreed with Ms. Zhong to leave the child at home and return quickly.
But it is obviously impossible to go there and come back quickly.
When it comes to spoiling children, Lou Luhui, the father, spoils them much more than Tian Mi, the mother.
The children were good-looking, as white as jade. After they begged pitifully for a minute or two, the man who had always been strong-willed began to waver.
Then he and the children looked at his wife pitifully.
Tian Mi was so angry that her head hurt. She put her hands on her hips and shouted, "No one is allowed to act like a spoiled child."
Zhong Yuxiu: “Hahahaha.”
In the end, amidst the laughter of her mother-in-law and the pitiful looks of the two children, Tian Mi was outnumbered and completely defeated.
There was a moment.
She even had a feeling of powerlessness as if she and her children had secretly eaten cookies together every night.
Really, I'm speechless.
It was around four o'clock in the afternoon when the car arrived at the military hospital.
There are only about forty minutes left until the agreed dinner time.
As time was running out, Tian Mi asked her husband to park the car not far away and she went to find her third sister with her things.
When she saw her sister, she first looked her over before stuffing the food she brought into the little girl's hands: "My mother-in-law asked me to bring this to you. What's wrong with your eyes? Why are there so many red bloodshot eyes? Didn't you sleep well? Are you tired? Didn't you just say that the patient has been rescued?"
Tian Xin held the food in her arms and answered every question her sister asked, so she did not hide the fact that she had met the scumbag Cheng Jingtian.
Of course, I also talked about kicking people.
After hearing this, Tian Mi frowned immediately. She didn't expect such a coincidence to happen. "Good kick, but you must ensure your own safety. What does the old man say?"
Tian Xin originally wanted to say that it was thanks to Deputy Captain Wang’s help that she didn’t have to pay the price for her impulsiveness.
But when she heard her sister mention the teacher, she immediately put those words behind her and said with a somewhat depressed look: "The teacher said he didn't care, but I actually saw him secretly looking at that Cheng Jingtian, and I felt very sad. Anyway, I can't describe it well, but seeing the teacher like that, I felt sad and wanted to cry."
So, the little girl's eyes turned red because she cried secretly
Tian Mi didn't know what to say about this kind of thing. In the end, she just patted her sister's shoulder gently and rubbed her little head: "The old man is old. Just like you said, he looks normal on the surface, but he must be uncomfortable in his heart. As his only disciple, you should eat well and sleep well at this time, because only in this way can you take better care of the old man, right? Don't always have a sad face or be cautious. The most important thing is to make the old man happy more."
Tian Xin seemed to be thinking about something, and soon nodded, and she was also very energetic: "Second sister, don't worry, I know what to do."
"Your brother-in-law and nephews are still waiting for me over there. I have to go. Remember to call me more often when you have time. You should also call me if you are bullied, okay?" Tian·Mother Mi came online again.
Hearing this, Tian Xin nodded obediently: "The teacher said that we will be done in a few more days at most. I will try to call you every two days."
At this point, she raised the food in her hand again and smiled shyly: "Thank my aunt for me."
Tian Mi patted her head again: "Good boy!"
After watching her sister leave, Tian Xin's mood was obviously much better. As she walked towards the hospital with a large bag of food, her steps became lighter.
Just as she entered the gate, she saw a familiar figure. She greeted politely, "Deputy Captain Wang, what a coincidence, are you going out too?"
Wang Linkun. He followed the little girl out because he was worried that she would run into some weird people again.
But it was hard to answer this question, so he smiled and asked, "Was that your second sister just now?"
Tian Xin was very interested in this topic, and her eyes lit up immediately: "She's my second sister, my sisters are all very nice."
Wang Linkun pushed his glasses to hide the strange look in his eyes: "Is she the sister who said that men who like to laugh have dirty minds?" Brother Lou's wife
Hearing this, Tian Xin shook her head, then nodded, and thought for a while before she said honestly, "My elder sister and second sister both said that I was too honest, and that men who smile all day are cunning, and some are dirty-minded, so they told me to stay away from them, otherwise I would suffer losses."
Wang Linkun. So. How many good sisters do you have
And be honest, why does he think there is nothing wrong with what the little girls say
In other words, he scolded himself
Is that what you mean
836th Unit.
The busy farming season has just ended and there is not much to do in the army.
Apart from basic training tasks, everyone rarely has time to rest.
Captain Wang is a worrier. Even if there is nothing to do in the army, he is in the habit of wandering around.
When I strolled back to the office, it was almost time to get off work.
He just picked up the hot tea and was about to have a cup before going home.
At noon, his wife told him that there would be steamed fish with green onions and ginger in the evening, and he had been thinking about it for several days.
But unexpectedly, the phone rang before he finished his tea.
Who would it be at this time
Wang Lu was puzzled, but he didn't hesitate. He put the teacup on the table and picked up the receiver: "Hello?"
Hearing his old father's voice, Wang Linkun chuckled, "Dad, it's me."
Wang Lu didn't expect it to be his eldest son. He laughed and said in a loud voice, "Boy, didn't you say you had a mission a while ago? What? Are you back now?"
"Yes, I've been back for a few days. I just called you to let you know I'm safe after I finished my work."
Hearing this, Brigade Wang laughed: "You are a filial boy, unlike your brother, who seemed to be lost when he joined the army. Unless I look for him, you can see when he has ever called home on his own initiative."
At the end, Wang Lu, who had been quite happy, turned grim-faced again and was full of complaints.
Wang Linkun pinched his brows and thought he had to contact his second brother to call home.
"By the way, since your mission is over, when will you go home? You haven't been back for almost five years!" Maybe it's because of his age or something else, but Wang Lu didn't nag much in the past, but his wife has been nagging him a lot in the past two years, and he started to nag unconsciously.
Wang Linkun had originally planned to go back this year. After all, he missed home. Of course, the time was moved up a few months because of the little rabbit.
Thinking of this, he smiled and said, "I will go back soon. I have already asked for leave from our brigade commander."
"What did you say?" Brigade Commander Wang took the receiver away and took a look. After making sure that the phone was fine, he put it to his ear and asked hurriedly.
Wang Linkun repeated in a good-tempered manner: "You heard me right. I haven't been home for a long time. I miss you, mom, and my little sister."
"Haha. Good! Good! Good! It's good that you can come back, kid. I thought you were unwilling to come back. Since you have decided to come back, I will shamelessly talk to the two female comrades of the Tian family about matchmaking, and come back for a blind date at the same time. How about it?" In the past, Wang Lu would never urge marriage. After all, it is a lifelong thing. He himself got married when he was almost thirty years old.
But times have changed.
Seeing that Miss Tian Xin has good character and family background, and will be 20 years old in a few months, there are countless people waiting for her. How can he not be anxious
Helpless because his son is not doing well for him, he and his old wife are so worried that their hair has turned white, but the other party is indifferent. So at this moment, although he is still muttering about it, he has actually given up hope in his heart.
Young people nowadays, what's the point of being free to date
"Would you like to meet Comrade Tian Xin? That's great. I agree."
Just when Wang Lu was sighing in his heart, wondering when he would be able to see his son get married, he suddenly heard these words in his ears.
After being stunned for a few seconds, his first reaction was suspicion: "Something is wrong with you! Why are you so easy to talk to today? No, what are you trying to do to me again?"
Wang Lu was really puzzled as to why he, a firecracker, gave birth to a son with the attributes of a fox.
Of course, he was proud that his son was a good candidate to be a political commissar.
But sometimes, as a father, it is inevitable to feel a little embarrassed when being fooled by his son, and this has happened frequently over the years, so it is no wonder that he is so suspicious.
Wang Linkun on the other end of the phone was very excited, so he didn't hide anything and said directly: "Dad, I met Tian Xin."
"I knew it, kid. What? You met Tian Xin? Where? How was it? Did you two talk to each other? Your parents have good taste, right?" Wang Lu didn't expect his son to meet Comrade Tian Xin. He didn't care about anything else and immediately excitedly asked a series of questions.
"In the hospital, she came with Elder Cheng to treat my comrade-in-arms. I met her by chance. She is indeed a very good girl." Thinking of the increasingly clear and active impression the little girl had left on him over the past few days, Wang Linkun could not help but chuckle again.
"What did I say? What did I say! You said she was a good girl, but you just didn't come back. Look at your pretentious look. You have wasted so many years. If you had come back earlier, maybe you would have been married by now." Wang Lu slammed the table and said proudly when his son approved of his look.
Wang Linkun did not agree with this.
The girl is 6 years younger than him and was only 17 two years ago. At that time, he wanted to go to school and had not settled down at all, let alone plan to start a family. Why should he waste her time
In Wang Linkun's opinion, if it's not the right time, even if it's the right person, it's not certain that any good feelings can be developed.
He felt that this unexpected meeting was just the right arrangement.
Because he is ready.
But the parents obviously had too much confidence in their son.
The girl obviously had no idea of herself.
Thinking of the words she believed in without a doubt, 'Men with smiling faces have many minds, and some of them are dirty', even though it has passed, thinking back now, Wang Linkun still felt pain in his heart: "Dad, time is running out, let's make it short, I want to ask you a question."
Hearing the seriousness in his son's words, Wang Lu's face turned serious: "What's the problem?"
"Tian Xin, what kind of people are the two sisters?"
Wang Lu: "What? Sister Tian Xin?"
"right!"
"Why are you asking this? They are two outstanding female comrades. Because the elder sister is outstanding, I wanted to book her for you before Comrade Tian Xin even arrived on the island."
His father didn't understand his point at all and time was tight. In the end, Wang Linkun didn't care about whether he was embarrassed or not. He immediately told the girl that she had no feelings for him, and at the same time repeated the heartbreaking words.
For Wang Linkun, he is not afraid of difficulties. As long as he finds the crux of the problem and solves it, he will always find a way to restore his image in the hearts of the three sisters of the Tian family.
After listening to his son's retelling of Wang Lu, his first reaction was to laugh at his son: "Hahaha. He wasn't wrong. Haha. You deserve it. Haha. Toot toot."
He laughed very loudly, and became even happier after his angry son hung up the phone.
Should!
We should make that brat anxious.
After Wang Lu put the receiver on the phone, he walked back and forth around the desk with his hands behind his back.
Then he became happier and happier, and even hummed a song, and walked out with high spirits: "Forward, forward, our team is moving forward."
Seeing the smiling leader, the two guards standing outside the door couldn't help but look at each other.
what's the situation
I was already curious when I heard the chief's loud laughter, but now he was so happy that he was humming a song
One of the guards asked curiously, "Brigade Commander, what are you so happy about?"
Hearing this, Wang Lu laughed out loud again: "There is something happy going on. Let's go, let's talk about it when we get back."
Gotta share this with my wife!
It's such a joke on him, you little bastard!
