A pot of dumplings, a plate of pancakes, and a pot of pickled tofu soup.

Zhou Lanqin also cooked a big bowl of egg soup for her daughter-in-law alone, brought it to her, and instructed: "Linglong, drink this bowl of egg soup to replenish your body." ”

"Mom, let's eat together, you don't have to prepare it for me alone." Gong Linglong said busily.

"Let's eat the rest, you drink egg soup."

Zhou Lanqin thought about her son's physique, it was estimated that she was tossed a lot last night, the physical strength and energy of being a soldier are strong, and her daughter-in-law may have been injured by him, and she must eat some nutritious supplements.

Although the mother didn't say it thoroughly, Lu Jingchuan understood what she meant, and was a little embarrassed, so he immediately took chopsticks to pick pork dumplings for his daughter-in-law.

"Aunt Zhou, have you finished breakfast?"

As soon as everyone put down the dishes and chopsticks, Jiang Yaping's shout came from outside, and Zhou Lanqin immediately got up to open the door, "Yaping, we just finished eating." ”

"Let's go to the back mountain to collect firewood today, will you go?"

Jiang Yaping asked her family members to act together yesterday afternoon, but they were very busy at that time, so they didn't come to inform them.

Zhou Lanqin thought about the banquet held at home yesterday, and used up all the firewood that her son had hoarded before, and the remaining firewood was only enough to burn for two or three days, so she nodded and responded: "Okay, let's go too, please wait a while, I'll wash the dishes and chopsticks and leave." ”

When he turned around and came back, he arranged work for his two sons: "Jingchuan, if you don't go to train today, then go to the mountains with Jingyang to get firewood." Today we will get more back, soon spring will come, there will be a lot of rain, it is better to pick up more firewood and put it at home. ”

"Okay." Lu Jingchuan responded and immediately got up to clean up the dishes and chopsticks.

They went out to collect firewood, and Bai Shuixian and Gong Linglong's mother and daughter also went, Zhou Lanqin didn't let them go, but their mother and daughter were idle people, so they directly took the rope machete and followed.

Half of the people who went to collect firewood were children, and there were two or three dolls about one year old, all of whom were tied to their backs with straps by their mothers.

The other five or six-year-old dolls all carried small baskets on their backs, and all of them followed them into the mountains to catch pine needles and leaves as matches, while the other two or three-year-old children simply followed along to play, and they had a lot of fun rolling and crawling all the way.

Gong Linglong brought a handful of candy when he went out, took one for each of the children, talked and laughed with the military families along the way, and soon integrated into their collective.

Jiang Yaping and the others thought that Gong Linglong was a lesbian who had never suffered hardships, after all, she was white and beautiful, not like she had done farm work, but when she started working, everyone found out that there was a misunderstanding about her.

"Linglong, let Jingchuan do this tree cutting work, don't go." Zhou Lanqin was afraid that her daughter-in-law would be tired.

"Mom, it's okay, I have a lot of strength, I can do it." Gong Linglong took a machete and went over to help.

Lu Jingchuan didn't let her cut down the big tree trunk, "Linglong, you stand next to you, I'll cut the tree first, and you cut the branches." ”

"You two brothers can get this one together, and I'll go there with my mother to cut it."

Gong Linglong is a good hand at cutting trees and getting firewood, and their mother and daughter have also cooperated for many years, so they directly left him and left.

Seeing that she cut down an arm-thick tree without effort, the military wives looked at her and their eyes changed, Jiang Yaping asked with a smile: "Linglong, you usually work?" ”

"I grew up in the countryside, and I do this kind of work every day."

Hearing that she also grew up in the countryside, Jiang Yaping was slightly surprised: "You don't seem to have grown up in the countryside at all, and no girl in the countryside is as white as you." ”

The military wives are all from the countryside, and none of the new daughters-in-law are as smart as her, not to mention them, even if they are from the art troupe, they may not be able to compare with her in terms of appearance and complexion.

Gong Linglong smiled when he heard this, "My skin doesn't tan, thanks to my mother who gave birth to me well." ”

White Narcissus was helping to chop the branches, smiled lightly, didn't say anything, and kept his head down and did things silently.

Jiang Yaping and the others noticed at the wedding banquet yesterday that Deputy Regiment Commander Lu's mother-in-law should be less than 40 years old, dressed and talked very charmingly, soft-spoken, and the leaders of the army praised her, and they guessed that she should be from the city.

But now that I saw her calloused hands, I was sure that they were a pair of hands that had done farm work, as rough as their hands, and it seemed that they were really living in the countryside.

Zhou Lanqin was helping to tie up the branches on the side, and seeing that their mother and daughter were working no worse than their two sons, she felt deeply: "Mother-in-law, your body has just improved, you can rest more next to you, I'll get it." ”

"It's fine."

Bai Shuixian smiled lightly and said: "I haven't been active for half a month, I have eaten, slept and eaten every day, I have no activity, my limbs feel rusty, and I still have to work." ”

"Then you work a little, don't do the heavy work, let Jingchuan do it."

Zhou Lanqin did not forget to arrange work for her son, and said: "The son-in-law is also half a son, and in the future, you and Linglong will not do the heavy work and dirty work at home, and tell him to do it." He is a man, it is right to take care of his daughter-in-law and honor his mother-in-law, you should rest more at home, take care of your body, and Linglong will give birth to one or two dolls in the future, just take care of the children. ”

Seeing that she was thinking about their mother and daughter in everything, Bai Shuixian was moved and said to her daughter: "Linglong, your mother loves you, you must honor your mother-in-law in the future." ”

"Mom, I will." Gong Linglong responded.

Zhou Lanqin's work in her hands did not stop, and she said with a smile: "Mom can move now and has a job income, so you don't have to worry about it." You just need to live your life now, work hard, have a son and a half daughter as soon as possible, raise and educate your children well, and do what you should do at your age. When my mother is old and can't walk anymore, and she can't even cook a meal, my mother will go to make things for you. ”

"Mom, you are simply a role model for mothers-in-law in the world."

Gong Linglong said what she said from her heart, such a sensible and thoughtful mother-in-law for the sake of her children is really extremely rare in this era, she is really lucky to meet such a good mother-in-law.

The sisters-in-law who work next to them are envious of Gong Linglong's good life, they are all from the countryside, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is indescribable, everyone talks about getting along with mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, it is estimated that they can tell a long story, in short, they can get along with their mother-in-law and become mother-in-law, basically extinct.

was praised by her daughter-in-law, Zhou Lanqin smiled and said: "There are so many mothers-in-law like Mom, and there are no role models." Mom also learned from your grandmother and grandmother, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law respect and understand each other, and the family will be harmonious and happy. ”

"Although I have been divorced from my child's father for many years, I get along well with my ex-in-laws and sister-in-law.

"Mom and Jingyang are usually very busy with work, they always don't eat three meals a day on time, your grandma often brings us food, and helps us do housework and laundry when she is free, she really treats me as a daughter."
