29 Military Wives of the Eighties (28)
"We cook our own meals."
Lin Xiaoxiao was surprised: "You guys can cook at such a young age?" ”
Sister Nie Xin said: "We cook noodles and eat them, we don't need to stir-fry. ”
Lu Xuan asked her sister Nie Yi: "Eat noodles every day?" ”
"Hmm"
Lu Xuan thought that she would be annoyed when she ate noodles in the morning for several days, so she asked a lot: "Are you tired of eating every day?" ”
Nie Yi doesn't dislike eating noodles for three meals a day: "How can you get tired?" ”
"Eat the noodles with pickles and bolognese. When we went back to our hometown, my cousins at home were envious. Nie Xin also said that he didn't understand why he would get tired of eating noodles every day.
Nie Yi also nodded in agreement: "That's it, when we go back to our hometown, some people still eat multigrain noodles at home, but they don't want to eat white noodles every day." ”
Lu Xuan said willfully: "But how can I eat noodles every day, I prefer to eat rice." ”
"When we go back to our hometown, all three meals are pasta, and noodles are considered good. If we don't eat rice, rice won't fill our necks. Nie Xin finished eating the last wonton in the bowl and said.
Lin Xiaoxiao noticed: "Do you want to eat a little more?" ”
Nie Xin was a little wanted and a little embarrassed: "I want a little more, thank you Aunt Lin." ”
"I'll cook more, and you can both order more." Lin Xiaoxiao was afraid that the two little girls would be polite, so she pulled Lu Xuan as a pretense, and it was better for the child who was growing up to eat more.
The twins are more sensible than Lu Xuan, but no matter how sensible they are, they are still children, and they couldn't help but agree to come to Lu's house for dinner after hearing Lu Xuan say that there were delicious wontons at home. Lin Xiaoxiao asked them to eat more, and they really ate more.
The little girl ate until her stomach was propped up.
Lu Zheng returned home before Children's Day, just in time for the Children's Day activities organized by the school. Lu Xuan not only participated in the show, but also was an outstanding student representative, and the school teachers attached great importance to it and invited parents to participate.
After Lu Xuan received the teacher's notice, she kept looking forward to Lu Zheng's return. Lin Xiaoxiao will definitely go at home, but she still wants Lu Zheng to watch her perform on stage with her.
Lin Xiaoxiao took the camera and Lu Zheng to school together. Lu Xuan performed on stage, and Lin Xiaoxiao kept filming offstage. Lu Zheng was also invited to the stage to speak on behalf of the students' parents, which was proposed by Lu Xuan's teacher.
Although the little girl has many shortcomings, her grades have always been very good, and she has scored double hundred points in every exam. Lu Zheng has to be modest about what he has achieved, but he is proud of Lu Xuan's achievements to show others.
At the end of the whole event, Lin Xiaoxiao pulled passers-by to help take a lot of photos for the family of three. The photos at home are filled with several books, and I took a few films on my last trip to the capital. A family of three, Lu Xuan has the most photos, from childhood to adulthood, various festivals, birthdays, etc., and she also got a big photo album for her.
After Lu Zheng participated in school activities, he went back to work before the vacation was over. He doesn't have much time off throughout the year, and he wants to spend time with his wife and children at home these days. Lin Xiaoxiao also planned to let him take Lu Xuan out to the amusement park to play.
Where is Lu Zheng willing to accompany them to play, with a wave of his hand, he said that he has work to do, so he asked Lin Xiaoxiao to take the child by himself.
Lin Xiaoxiao said that their mother and daughter were not in a hurry, they could wait, and wait for Lu Zheng to rest on the weekend before going together. She prepared the snacks, fruits and cameras for the play, but Lu Zheng was called away a moment before going out, saying that there was something in the group that he needed to do immediately.
Lin Xiaoxiao touched Lu Xuan's aggrieved little face, and could only smile bitterly and take the child out to play alone. Although Lu Zheng was missing, Lin Xiaoxiao took Lu Xuan to play outside for a day before going home. She thought that Lu Zheng should go home for dinner in the evening, but the food was cold and hot and didn't wait for anyone.
Lin Xiaoxiao could only ignore Lu Zheng, and Lu Xuan had dinner and rest first, and finally Lin Xiaoxiao fell asleep with a hint of uneasiness.
Lin Xiaoxiao got up in the morning and found no trace of Lu Zheng's return, and the uneasiness in her heart expanded again. She didn't show her face, and cooked as usual to send Lu Xuan to school. When the children went to school, she went out to ask the head of the regiment for news.
Lin Xiaoxiao knew that Lu Zheng's work needed to be kept secret, but it was strange that the man was suddenly called away at home and did not return overnight, so it was strange not to ask around.
It seemed that Lin Xiaoxiao's arrival would be expected, and before she could ask, the guard took the initiative to convey the regiment commander's words to her.
Lin Xiaoxiao didn't believe that Lu Zheng was on a mission and didn't return home for many days, so how could he not pack his clothes. But there was no sign of going home after Lu Zheng went out yesterday, and there was nothing missing at home. She asked the guard: "Lu Zheng has an urgent mission?" The head of the regiment is not there either? ”
"Yes, sister-in-law, when the task is completed, Battalion Commander Lu will go home."
"Then please let me know if you have any news." Lin Xiaoxiao didn't believe it in her heart, so she could only go home and wait first, no news at this time was good news.
Time passed day by day, and Lu Zheng never went home. The men in the army are like this, often not returning home for ten days and a half months, and no one pays much attention to Lu Zheng. Even if Lin Xiaoxiao is anxious, she has to save face, she can't let Lu Xuan find out that something is wrong, let alone let outsiders see the joke.
Of course, there are people in the army who know where Lu Zheng is, but these involve confidentiality regulations, and even if someone wants to do something, they can only hold it back.
"Lu Xuan's mother, Lu Xuan has made rapid progress in learning the piano, but there is too little time to practice, if you can, it is best to buy a piano at home, and you can still practice when you go home every day." The piano teacher of the Children's Palace kindly suggested to Lin Xiaoxiao after the end of the course.
"Okay, thank you, teacher, I'll think about it when I get home."
Lin Xiaoxiao took Lu Xuan's hand and went home: "Let's go, behave well today, mom invites you to eat ice cream."
Lu Xuan heard that there was ice cream to eat, and said happily: "I want to eat banana boat." "Banana boats are a bit more expensive than regular popsicles.
"Okay."
When she found a popsicle seller on the street, Lu Xuan changed her mind and wanted to eat red bean popsicles. After buying the popsicle, Lu Xuan took the first bite sweetly, and then raised the popsicle in his hand for Lin Xiaoxiao to eat.
Lin Xiaoxiao took a small bite, and her heart was soft. Lu Xuan didn't want to be alone, so she held up the popsicle when she took a bite, waiting for Lin Xiaoxiao to take a bite. Mother and daughter, you eat the whole popsicle in one bite.
Lu Zheng hasn't gone home yet, for the sake of her daughter's happy smile, Lin Xiaoxiao has to work hard to protect their little family. She can't do anything now, she can only wait quietly for Lu Zheng to come back.
Lin Xiaoxiao was still tormented in her heart, and she received a telegram from the old man here, saying that Da Mao was hurting people at school and wanted Lu Zheng to go back and solve it.
Lin Xiaoxiao looked at the short words on the telegram, she didn't know the specific situation, Lu Zheng was not there, Lu Xuan had to go to school again, and it was unrealistic to want to go back to her hometown.
Lin Xiaoxiao could only call Father Lin and ask him to help see what happened to the Lu family. It's not that she is close to her mother's family, it's that now the village will install a phone in the countryside, and she wants to call the village committee of the Lu family, but she hasn't called Lin's father yet.
After Father Lin received the call, he rode his bicycle to Lu's house as soon as possible to inquire about what happened to Lu's family. If there is something that can't be solved, you still need to call your son-in-law back, which doesn't affect the child's future.
