After washing and picking clean in the water room, the three came back with the dishes, He Shuilian sighed with emotion, "When I was with Lao Xu in the army, the courtyard was also about the same public water room and public kitchen, lively is lively, and the human touch is also heavy, but you have to queue up for everything, sometimes there are quarrels and fights for things, and it is easy to lose things, pots and pans and seasonings dare not be put in the kitchen, I was pregnant with Xu Hong at that time, every day with a big belly, I carried things over, finished cooking against the heat wave, and then carried back to the house, now I think about it, I don't know how I survived at that time. ”

Dong Lainan had never been with the army before, but he went to visit his relatives every year, and he always felt that the conditions of the army were very good, and the guest house was also very good, anyway, it was better than the thatched house in his hometown, but he didn't expect that there would be such a difficult time.

"Now that life is better, how bright is our family building, and the kitchen and toilet are all there." Lou Yanni replied with a smile, while greeting the family members of colleagues who were busy cooking in the family building, someone asked He Shuilian and Dong Lainan's identities, and Lou Yanni smiled and said that the sisters-in-law in the family courtyard came to see her.

He Shuilian because of the political commissar Xu, in the compound is also like the village women's director, she also followed everyone to say hello, and also said that please take care of Lou Yanni, at this time, in the tube building, the human touch is strong, everyone should naturally not mention it, and there are good neighbors, seeing that Lou Yanni has a guest here, I am afraid that she will not have enough food, so I specially sent the dishes over.

"In the past, it was difficult to return, but now that I think about it, I still miss it more." He Shuilian's eyes were full of nostalgia, just an iron-beaten camp, a flowing soldier, there were very few people who stayed in the army for so many years, and many people were afraid that they would never see each other again in this life.

The preparations are all done by He Shuilian and Dong Lainan, Lou Yanni is responsible for stir-frying on the stove, and as soon as the chili fried meat comes out of the pot, a neighbor smells the smell and comes over to laugh, living in this kind of tube building is like this, what do you eat at home, unless you buy cooked food and hide it and bring it in, there is no secret at all, but Lou Yanni has a guest, and everyone just smells the smell of the meal, and there is no way forward.

Fortunately, the conditions are good now, chickens, ducks, meat and eggs are all open to supply, if the butcher shop can't buy it, you can still go to someone else's house to buy it, and those who are willing to eat it always have to eat meat once or twice a week, Lou Yanni usually eats better, and it is not so eye-catching.

Although the room is small, Han Rin still prepared a serious dinner table, afraid that Lou Yanni will have a big belly, and it will be inconvenient to eat on the coffee table with her stomach pressed, Xu Hong has the demeanor of a big sister, takes good care of several children, and also helps to take a bowl of rice, which is very well-behaved.

After the meal, Dong Lainan wanted to wash the dishes, He Shuilian hurriedly snatched the job, Dong Lainan is a big man who is easy to get along with, but it is really not good to work, she washed the dishes, I am afraid that Lou Yanni will have to wash it again by herself, Lou Yanni said that she can wash it herself, He Shuilian did not agree, led Xu Hong to the water room, and washed the dishes clean in a while.

In the afternoon, the three of them took the children to the supply and marketing cooperative, and went to the newly opened South Grocery Store for a turn, He Shuilian and Dong Lainan came to this trip mainly to buy cloth to make schoolbags for the children who are about to start school, and then buy some books and pens for the children, the county is not big, Lou Yanni does not feel tired after walking around, Dong Lainan has seen the county all over, and is also very satisfied.

When the two went back, they didn't go to the roadside to wait for the minibus, but went to the market to wait for the army's procurement car to pass by, and then brought them back.

I didn't call the capital when I went back to the family home last week, and I don't know what Father Han thinks the little brothers want to be, Lou Yanni glanced at the time, and led the child to the bureau to make a call, Father Han waited in the living room after lunch, Sui Lifang pouted, she is now used to Father Han's preference for the little brothers, and she is too lazy to care.

Now there are two grandchildren in the family, and it is normal for Han's father to feel distressed, Sui Lifang now only hopes that Han Huan can get married as soon as possible and give birth to a grandson, and then the grandson can always be by his side, and he can meet often to see what the little brothers use to compete for favor.

Hearing the phone call, the little brothers called grandpa in a milky voice, Father Han smiled so that the folds on his face were squeezed together, his heart was sweeter than drinking honey, although the little brothers were clever and could speak, but after all, they were still children, and they would say this and that, and Father Han would listen to it with relish.

Lou Yanni listened to the little brothers and sisters talking to Father Han about the day they touched the snails, and they and their brothers and sisters caught small fish, and they also held their hands and gestured, as if they were catching a big fish that was taller and fatter than them, and she didn't feel a little like laughing.

"Sister Yanni, can I ask you for a favor?" Lou Yanni was listening, a front-line colleague came over, and asked her about the problem of translation, Lou Yanni's file has previous work experience, including what kind of honors have been achieved, are very clear, and now people in the post and telecommunications bureau know that Lou Yanni is not only a college student, but also a technical pacesetter at the grassroots level.

Someone came to ask questions, Lou Yanni did not refuse most of the time, the operator said that he would look at the little brother for a while, and Lou Yanni followed into the office of the translation and telecommunications department.

When she came out again, the little brothers were still talking excitedly about what kind of small box was filled with villains, and Lou Yanni was afraid that they would not finish talking, so she took the phone and said a few words to Father Han.

Knowing that Han Rin is working smoothly, the little brothers are also in good health, and now they are still in the nursery, Han's father is very relieved, although he really wants to take the little brothers back to Beijing during the New Year, but he also knows that Lou Yanni is now working and pregnant, unless he goes to Han Rin to see the little brothers himself, he is afraid that if he wants to meet again, he will have to wait until next year, not necessarily.

Lou Yanni hung up the phone quickly, Lou Yanni didn't call at home, now it's very expensive to call, you have to save money, there is no special emergency, Lou Yanni is writing letters, and it is more troublesome to call her hometown, the phone of the village committee can't get through, so she can only call the town's post and telecommunications office, Lou Sister has to wait for the notice, and then go over to wait for the call, which is very delayed.

When Han Rin came back from the mission, Lou Yanni planned to take a family photo of the family of four at the door of the post and telecommunications office and send it back, and let her grandmother see the little brothers.

In the past, when they were in Nanjing, the little brothers almost didn't mumble about their father, but now Han Rin is just on a mission, and they can't see each other for a few days, so the little brothers and their father muttered non-stop, except for asking Han Rin, that is, asking when they will go back to play with Brother Bao Dan.
