Chapter 3: Family Affairs

Deng Hongbing beckoned the two soldiers who drove them back into the hall to drink hot water. Deng Hongbing's father and younger brother had also come back from the field, and they hurried out when they heard the sound in the yard.

Seeing that the prospective daughter-in-law and son were back, Father Deng and Mother Deng hurriedly asked, "How is it?" How about the in-laws? When will I be back? ”

Sunset replied: "Uncle, aunt, my father's condition is not very good, I will pick up my little sister and go to the hospital to see my father." ”

Father Deng heard that the situation was not good, and he was anxious, and just wanted to ask something, but was interrupted by Deng Hongbing: "Dad, let Sunset go in and clean up for my sister-in-law first, and I'll tell you about the situation on my father-in-law's side." "The two of them had already opened a letter of introduction in the village a few days ago, and they were waiting to get the marriage certificate in a few days, and then set a time to do wine, so they called those according to the family.

Father Deng nodded, quickly swept the non-existent ash on the strip-shaped bench in the hall with his sleeve, and said to the two green uniforms who came in with Deng Hongbing: "Come on, come on, comrades of the People's Liberation Army have worked hard, come and sit and rest for a while." Then he turned to Mother Deng and said, "Old woman, quick, go to the kitchen and let the flowers boil water, and make two bowls of sugar water to greet the guests." ”

Deng Mu also reacted, nodded and said, "Alas, alas, let's go." "In this era, the soldier is a very sacred existence in the eyes of the people, and this soldier can go to his own house, how honored it is to say it, but I have to greet it well.

Seeing the enthusiasm of the people, the two soldiers were also happy, and hurriedly said: "Daddy Deng, let's not drink sugar water, just two bowls of cold water." ”

Father Deng didn't insist, and shouted in the direction of the kitchen with a smile: "Old woman, just bring hot water!" "He's also a man, and men definitely don't like that sweet and greasy sugar water.

Sunset took Wanning back to the room where she was temporarily staying, lifted the curtain and came out, nodded to the people in the hall, and then said to Father Deng: "Uncle, I'll go boil some hot water and wipe Wanning's face." ”

Daddy Deng nodded: "Alas, go, go quickly, just let the flowers boil water." ”

Soon, Sunset and Deng Honghua returned to the room with a basin of hot water, and Sunset skillfully wrung a towel to wipe Wanning's hands and face, and then untied her braids and helped her comb her hair.

Honghua stood aside: "Sister-in-law, I wanted to wash Wanning's face and comb her hair in the morning, but she didn't let me, fortunately we only took a shower yesterday, so I thought I'd wait for you to come back." ”

Wanxia smiled and nodded: "I was in a hurry yesterday, and I forgot to tell you, my little sister is very recognizable, and she is only close to me when she is at home, and she doesn't even let my eldest sister comb her hair." ”

Honghua looked at her sister-in-law, and then at the stunned Wan Ning: "Then your sister-in-law will marry you in the future, and you are so far away from home, what should you do with Wan Ning?" Either you discuss with my brother and take Wanning to our house, you can live with me, or she will be alone in the Mu family in the future, how pitiful. ”

Mu Wanxia looked at the red flower, she didn't expect her sister-in-law to say this, although she also secretly thought that when she got married and became pregnant, she would find a way to take her little sister over, but now that her sister-in-law can actually put it forward before her, she said in her heart that it was false not to be moved, and she made up her mind to take good care of this family in the future.

Sunset turned her head to prevent Honghua from seeing the tears in her eyes: "Hua'er, thank you for thinking so, but Wanmei will be 20 next year." Do you want to get married? My dad told Wan Ning about the family, I'll come back now to dress her up, and take her to meet the person in a while. ”

Honghua's eyes widened: "Sister-in-law, what are you talking about?" Uncle Mu told Wan Ning about family affairs? Didn't you say that you were injured and hospitalized? What the hell is going on? ”
