Chapter 118: Yesterday's Update
The next day was Sunday, and in the morning, Zhong's father went to exercise as usual, Luo Qin and Wang Li were preparing breakfast, and the phone rang in the living room.
"Ali, go pick up the phone."
Luo Qin was cutting steamed buns, and his hands were full of flour, so he called Wang Li to go.
Wang Li said "hey", put down the half-washed rice in her hand, dried her hands and went to answer the phone.
"Hey, hello."
"Ali, it's me."
Zhong Zijing didn't expect that it was Wang Li who answered the phone, and couldn't help but smile and squint: "Have you missed me these days?" As he spoke, his voice deepened, and he said slowly: "Ali, I miss you very much." ”
Wang Li only felt that his voice was like a feather, scratching and scratching her ears, and her heart was crisp when it was itchy.
A touch of rouge quickly flew up on her face, her fingers grasped the microphone, and she muttered, "I miss you too." ”
Zhong Zijing listened to her soft voice, and consciously recalled those three days in his mind, and his heartbeat immediately accelerated.
He never imagined that he could miss someone so much.
It's only been two days, but he feels that he has almost been separated by a lifetime.
Unfortunately, he was about to leave, and he didn't have much time to talk to her.
His eyes were red at the thought of the notice he had received this morning.
Shaking his head and getting rid of those troubles, he reluctantly said: "Ali, I'm about to go on a mission, and I can't contact you for the next month, you stay at home." Mom will arrange everything, you just follow Mom, don't run around alone for a while. ”
Wang Li was surprised: "Why do you have a task so soon?" She wanted to ask what the task was, whether it was dangerous or not, but since he didn't mention it, it was naturally something she shouldn't ask.
Don't ask about things that shouldn't be asked, at this time it is the most important thing to make him feel at ease, so he hurriedly said: "You can rest assured." I just follow my mother every day, and I don't know the way, so I run alone. I'm also afraid of getting lost. What's more, how comfortable it is to stay at home, what do I run out to do. ”
As for the fact that she had been running alone for most of the day yesterday, of course she didn't mention it at all.
Zhong Zijing was afraid that she would run away alone. Her look. He was really worried, what if someone took advantage of his absence from her to have bad intentions towards her? She is so simple, she doesn't know that she was deceived by others, so she should stay at home more first, and let her mother teach her well.
Now that I have listened to Wang Li's promise, half of my heart has finally been put down, as for the other half. Hmph, people are not in front of me. The other half of the heart can't let go.
Seeing that the nails not far away were urging, Zhong Zijing had no choice but to say quickly: "Ali, I'll leave soon, you tell your parents, be obedient at home." Don't worry me. ”
Wang Li nodded again and again, forgetting that Zhong Zijing couldn't see on the other end of the wire: "Don't worry, I'll follow my mother this month, and you should pay attention to yourself, don't forget, I'm waiting for you at home." ”
As soon as the voice fell, the phone hung up.
Wang Li held the microphone for a long time and was reluctant to put it down.
After saying a few words, I hung up, what kind of task is that end, such a tight one?
"Ali? Whose phone is it? ”
Luo Qin saw Wang Li answer the phone for a long time, so he raised his voice and asked.
Wang Li put the microphone back on the phone, patted her face again, and felt that the blush on her face had dissipated, so she walked to the kitchen: "Mom, it's Zijing's call, he said that he is about to go on a mission, and he will not be able to contact home in a month, let me talk to you." As he spoke, he continued to wash rice and cook porridge.
When Luo Qin heard this, he was stunned.
It's really a coincidence, isn't it, my son just got married, why did he send such a task? In the past two years, Zijing has taken over such tasks twice, why is there again this year? He had just gotten married, if he hadn't left Wang Li at home, but let her join the army, wouldn't it have allowed her to stay alone in that unfamiliar place for a month, this arrangement is too unfortunate.
Turning his head to look at Wang Li, his face was clearly worried, and he sighed in his heart, this child, this expression has to learn to be collected, it is too easy for people to see through.
When the middle father came back from exercise, Luo Qin told the middle father about it.
When the middle father heard this, he frowned, and Luo Qin's heart was sudden.
"Lao Zhong, here?"
Seeing that Wang Li was also looking at him with blank eyes, the middle father swallowed back the words that were about to reach his mouth, shook his head and said, "It's nothing, it's not like this." ”
When he had finished speaking, he walked to the table with his hands behind his back and said, "Let's eat, I'll go out later." ”
Luo Qin's eyes darkened, the old man's expression? But looking at the daughter-in-law's still worried face, thinking that she was only eighteen years old and had never been exposed to anything of their level, she didn't continue to ask.
But I secretly decided in my heart that I had to train my daughter-in-law out quickly, and if my son was not at home, my daughter-in-law would have to be able to afford it, otherwise, the family would be in chaos.
She smiled and said, "Ali, let's eat, this soldier, after taking the task, he will leave, in the future, you have to get used to it." ”
Although Wang Li still has doubts, now that her parents have this attitude, they will eat first.
After eating, the middle father went out, saying that he was going to visit an old friend.
Luo Qin waited for a while, made a phone call and went out, and told Wang Li before going out: "Ali, my mother has something to do today, and I won't come back at noon, you can eat alone, if you stay at home, go out for a walk, today is the weekend, and the street is very lively." ”
Wang Ligang promised Zhong Zijing not to run around, at this time, looking at his parents like this, where would he go out, he just said: "Mom, I haven't read a book recently, I plan to read a book at home today, so as not to forget all the things in the book." ”
Seeing her like this, Luo Qin nodded, didn't say anything more, and went out.
Wang Li was alone at home, where did she have the heart to read, and her mind was full of Zhong Zijing's task.
Two years ago, he also had such a mission. It was two months after it came out, and all contact was interrupted.
How was it at that time?
At that time, she worked every day and had to do housework. I have to find time to study, I am busy every day, where is there so much thought about him, that is, when it is time to write a letter, I will worry, how is his situation now?
At the end of the day, at that time. Her feelings weren't as deep as they were now.
But people's hearts are made of meat, and for more than two years, he has thought about her in everything. If you have something to eat, send it to her, and if you have good fabric, send it to her. What she wants. Say it, and he'll find a way to satisfy her.
In the face of such a person who takes her to heart, unconsciously, her heart is lost.
Now she knows why, when she gets married, she gets along with him so naturally. Just like a couple who have been together for a long time, there is intimacy in familiarity. There is a bit of shyness in the intimacy.
And when they were separated, even if it was only for two days, she would miss him so much.
She has been worrying about it now, not only worried about whether his task will be difficult, but also worried about whether he will be dangerous this month, and thinking of the attitude of her parents-in-law in the morning, and afraid that there will be any problems with this task.
All kinds of thoughts disturbed her restless, uneasy, a morning passed, let alone reading, not even touching the book cover.
Looking at the time, it was already noon, and none of her parents-in-law came back, so she went to the kitchen, heated up yesterday's leftovers, and filled her stomach indiscriminately.
After eating lunch and cleaning up the kitchen, Wang Li's attention finally shifted a little, she picked up the newspaper on the table and read it.
Since you can't read a book, you should read the newspaper.
You can't spend all your mind worrying, what's the use of sitting here worrying? This is his job in the first place, and he will encounter this kind of thing countless times in the future, is it not possible to do it every day? Now I have my parents-in-law to support me, but what about in the future? If she is still so worried, what will the family do?
It's better to do his own thing and let him go to work without worries.
Thinking about it this way, the worry in my heart has gone to two points, and I have the heart to read the newspaper.
After reading a few newspapers, her heart finally calmed down a little, and she began to read the book seriously as she had planned.
When Luo Qin came back, he saw the textbooks and notes spread out on the coffee table, and nodded in his heart.
"Mom, you're back."
Wang Li was busy cleaning up the textbooks and notes placed randomly on the coffee table, and after this serious study, the time passed unconsciously, and her mother-in-law came back.
She looked at the time, no wonder, it was four o'clock!
"I've lost track of time when I'm reading, so I'll put the book back." Wang Li was embarrassed to tidy up everything and planned to put it in the upstairs room.
Luo Qin nodded with a smile and said, "You go." ”
Seeing Wang Li go upstairs, Luo Qin nodded, it's good to calm down, she thought that her young daughter-in-law would be uneasy all day today, and the old man's expression in the morning The daughter-in-law also saw it, but she didn't expect that she could restrain herself and do what she had to do.
That's good.
When Wang Li came down, Luo Qin called her to go over and sit.
"Ali, originally, my mother planned to take you to various relatives and friends' homes for a while to take a turn, so that you can recognize people, your father has been in the army all his life, starting from a small soldier and working until now, old leaders, old subordinates, now you are also a part of our family, you also know more about these people, me and your father are also up in age, in the future, the family will have to rely on you and Zijing."
"Mom, what are you talking about, you and Dad are still young!" Wang Li didn't dare to answer this.
Luo Qin patted her hand and said with a smile: "Silly child, it is a person, there is an old day, I have been thinking about Zijing since he became an adult, when he marries his daughter-in-law, I will unload the burden, and then have a good time with your father, and live a comfortable life, who knows that Zijing's bad boy is always delayed, and I can't say what I am anxious about." ”
"Fortunately, he still has a little conscience, knowing that my father and I are in a hurry, and finally married you back, you say, should you let me and your father live a relaxed life in the future?"
Wang Li felt that she couldn't object to what her mother-in-law said.
I can only nod: "Mom, I listen to you." ”
Luo Qin took out a stack of manuscript paper and pens, put them on the coffee table, and said to Wang Li: "Zijing is going to go on a mission now, we can't stay at home in vain, come, let me tell you about these relatives and friends at home first." ”
As he spoke, he picked up a pen and wrote on the manuscript paper, wrote one, and carefully explained to Wang Li who this person was, how he met his family, what his relationship was, what he was doing now, who were in the family, and so on.
Wang Li listened carefully and silently kept these in her heart.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law said one by one, and soon filled a large sheet of manuscript paper.
Luo Qin stopped writing.
"That's all for today, you take this, go back and think about it carefully, memorize all these in your head, remember it, and burn the paper."
Wang Li held the manuscript paper, feeling that this thing was so heavy that she almost couldn't hold it, and when she heard Luo Qin's words, she nodded again and again.
Something so important must not be left on paper.
was interrupted by this matter, and Wang Li forgot to ask her father-in-law how Zijing's mission was.
In the next half month, Luo Qin didn't give Wang Li time to think about anything else, and her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law kept this state of teaching.
Every day, Luo Qin will take out what she has written before and ask Wang Li, if Wang Li answers wrong, she doesn't say anything, but she just wants to say it on her face, Wang Li will automatically feel full of remorse in her heart, and she will remember and memorize it more carefully.
After coming like this twice, Luo Qin asked again, and Wang Li did not make a mistake.
Later, Luo Qin smiled and said to his wife: "Ali, this child, everything is fine, but her heart is too soft, I just put some expressions on my face, and she softened first, what I want her to do, needless to say, I will do it first." ”
The middle father didn't care: "Isn't it a good thing to be soft on your family?" If there is something to do, she will have a headache if she refuses to bow her head, anyway, as long as she is not soft-hearted outside. ”
My son is working hard outside and comes home, don't you want to have a soft wife waiting for you at home?
Luo Qin thought about it, yes, the daughter-in-law's heart has softened, isn't her son comfortable! The old man still understands it!
It's April soon, and Wang Li has been married for a month.
Wang Li touched her stomach and thought to herself, should I go to the hospital for a check-up?
She has always had regular menstruation, but this time she was two weeks late and didn't come.
Although her body has not changed, her taste has not changed, and she doesn't want to vomit when she gets up in the morning, she thinks it's right, she should be pregnant, and she was like this when she was pregnant with her son in her previous life.
This is the joy of entering the door.
But for the sake of accuracy, it is better to go to the hospital for a check-up first.
When she got the list, she had to report the good news to her parents-in-law.
Although they didn't say it, she could feel her mother-in-law's eyes sweeping her stomach from time to time, especially in the past half a month, the eyes went from hot to dim to disappointed, so that she had to pretend not to see.
This has been checked, and I have received good news, so I think my parents-in-law will be very happy!
It just so happens that after Zijing's mission is over in a few days, he will be able to contact him by phone, and when the time comes, he will be happy and happy! (To be continued......)
