Dressed up as a Real Mom - Chapter 36
The journey was tiring, and I slept peacefully this night. When I woke up, it was already bright, and the light came in through the small window near the corridor.
He Xiaoyun sat up holding the quilt, and after a few seconds of daze, her consciousness gradually returned to the cage, remembering where she was now.
She looked at the bed next to him, Wei Yuanhang was still asleep, and Wei Jianwei had already gotten up and was not in the room. It seemed that she was indeed asleep, and the movement of the other party did not wake her up.
While staying, the door creaked, Wei Jianwei walked in. He had finished his dressing, holding hot water in one hand and two lunch boxes in the other.
He Xiaoyun was completely awake, and quickly got up to clean up herself, “Is it very late?”
“It’s not too late.” Wei Jianwei said.
In fact, after getting up in the morning, he had already gone to the camp to see how the new recruits were performing exercises. Then he abducted to the army canteen and came back with breakfast.
He Xiaoyun dug Wei Yuanhang out of the bed, dressed and washed for him, while Wei Jianwei laid out the breakfast he had brought back.
The child was still a little confused, without opening his eyes, and said to his mother: “Mom, I dreamt that we were going to find Dad…”
He Xiaoyun was amused, “We have found Dad, are you still awake?”
After washing his face, Wei Yuanhang woke up completely, hopping back and forth in this new “home”, take a look here, take a look there.
For breakfast, I have white porridge and corn steamed buns with a little pickles.
He Xiaoyun learned about it last night. The house assigned by the army, the bath room and the bathroom are shared. At both ends of the corridor, people can be opened in the house, but it is not like burning wood like in the countryside. It uses a coal stove and there is a utility in the kitchen. Wei Jianwei was well prepared, but there were no ingredients to cook.
He Xiaoyun calculated that they had to eat the food delivered enthusiastically last night, and the army canteen this morning, and they would have to cook it by themselves at noon.
“Is there a market nearby?” she asked Wei Jianwei.
“Yes,” Wei Jianwei nodded, stood up and took out a few things from the drawer to her, including the grain book, various tickets and money, “Sister-in-law will accompany you later, I have something to do in the camp in the morning.”
“You’re busy with you, business matters, don’t worry about me.” He Xiaoyun flipped through the grain book curiously, then remembered and asked: “Is the sister-in-law you mentioned last night?”
“Yes, her surname is Xu.”
He Xiaoyun said hurriedly: “Oh, then I have to hurry up, and I can’t let people wait for too long.”
As soon as the voice fell, someone knocked on the door outside, “Sister, are you up?”
Wei Jianwei went to open the door, and He Xiaoyun also stood up.
“Old Wei is here, I thought you were in the camp and wanted to call your younger brother and sister to go to my place for breakfast.”
The woman who came here was about 30 years old, with short neck hair and a full smile. She looked very capable. She saw He Xiaoyun standing at the table, and she walked a few steps and praised her at a glance. These are the younger brothers and sisters, right? They look so beautiful! No wonder Old Wei devoted himself to business affairs, and everyone next to them didn’t even look at them. It turns out that there is such a beautiful daughter-in-law in the family!”
He Xiaoyun smiled shyly, “My sister-in-law passed the award. I came too late yesterday and didn’t come to visit. I ate your meal for nothing.”
“What are you polite?” Xu Lanxiang waved his hand. “Your old Wei, Lao Wang, and Lao Lin are all brothers. In the future, our two families will live together again, so we can’t get closer to the hot spots? You’ve just arrived here. , If there is anything you don’t understand, just ask me.”
He Xiaoyun nodded, exchanged a few words with her, and then asked Wei Yuanhang to call someone.
Xu Lanxiang took out a piece of candy from his pocket, “You and Lao Wei look good, and the baby dolls are beautiful, isn’t Xiao Hang? Come on, I have candy here.”
Wei Yuanhang looked at her, then at He Xiaoyun, and when he saw her nodding, he took it, “Thank you auntie.”
“Really good.” Xu Lanxiang couldn’t help but said, “How do you look like those little monkeys in my house.”
She had originally planned to ask He Xiaoyun to eat. Seeing that they were already eating, and there were still a few children in her family who were inseparable, she made an appointment with He Xiaoyun to go out for a while and went back soon.
After breakfast, Wei Jianwei had to return to the camp, walked to the door, remembered and asked: “I came back from the cafeteria for lunch at noon, what do you want to eat?”
He Xiaoyun walked over and said with a smile: “I was just about to ask you. I will go to the market with my sister-in-law in a moment to buy some food and cook for myself. Can you come back to eat? What do you want to eat?”
“No rest for two days?” Wei Jianwei asked her.
“No,” He Xiaoyun shook her head, and stretched out her hands and feet with him, “I slept well last night, I feel energetic now.”
Wei Jianwei said in a convenient way: “If you look at it, there are fewer people, so you can do less.”
“There are fewer people, but you don’t have a lot of appetite at all. One can do two things.” He Xiaoyun teased.
Wei Jianwei also smiled.
“Then… come back early at noon?” He Xiaoyun hesitated, rarely reluctant to give up.
In fact, she understands very well intellectually, it is not the first time to send him out, and people will come back soon. There is really no need to be sticky, but after all, in a strange place, there is only one acquaintance in front of him, so emotionally it is inevitable to be a little dependent. See He wanted to leave, and he felt reluctant to leave.
“Yeah.” Wei Jianwei nodded, but did not step out, “If you are bored, you can walk around, don’t go too far. There is a bookstore not far from the market, and next door is a department store. Take a twelve-way tram back and forth—”
Before he could finish his explanation, he was interrupted by a smile with a smile: “I’ve been watching you two for a long time. If you continue to say this, the sun will be down. Old Wei, you can go to the camp with peace of mind. Your wife lost it.”
The two turned their heads at the same time and saw Xu Lanxiang standing at the door of the next room, and they didn’t know how much they heard.
He Xiaoyun’s face was a little hot, and she quickly changed the subject with Wei Yuanhang: “Hanghang, say goodbye to Dad.”
Wei Yuanhang ran over, tilted his head and said, “Goodbye, Dad.”
Wei Jianwei gave a hum, looked at them again, nodded at Xu Lanxiang, and left.
Xu Lanxiang also held a four or five-year-old boy in his hand and walked over and said with a smile: “I have never seen Lao Wei look like this. Today, you opened your eyes to my sister-in-law. I told Lao Wang that he I can’t believe it.”
He Xiaoyun was slightly embarrassed, seeing the boy next to her, and asked: “Is this the youngest child of my sister-in-law?”
“Yes, there is a elder sister and a elder brother above him. They have all gone to school. I will send him away in two years and I will be clean. Xiao Rong, don’t you call someone?”
While the adults were talking, the two little guys had looked at each other for a long time. After a while, the older one spoke first, “My name is Wang Derong, who are you?”
“My name is Wei Yuanhang.”
“Wei Yuan? Your name is really strange.”
“It’s Wei Yuanhang! My mother said it was ambition, ambition… lofty ambitions! I will be a promising person in the future!” Wei Yuanhang was not very happy with a small chest. Although he neither knows what it means to be tall and ambitious, nor does he understand what it means to be outstanding, it does not hinder his contempt for others.
“Oh…” Wang Derong scratched his head and didn’t understand. “Then do you have a slingshot?”
“What slingshot?”
Now it was Wang Derong’s turn to stand up, “My father made it for me, and my brother knocked the bird off with a swish.”
“Can you fight?” Wei Yuanhang hit the nail on the head.
“I, I don’t know how to do it now, but I will soon! I can borrow you to play.”
As soon as the little fat man heard it, he immediately put away the despised expression just now, and murmured with his new friend.
He Xiaoyun packed up, and Xu Lanxiang led a child out of the house.
As Wei Jianwei said, the family area has to take a tram to the market. The sky was dark yesterday, and I didn’t have time to look around. Today I really felt that the excitement and prosperity of the capital are beyond comparison in the small county town of my hometown.
After getting out of the car, He Xiaoyun held Wei Yuanhang’s hand tightly and explained that he could not run around.
The child was already dazzled to see, a little bun, if it weren’t for being dragged by her, it would have been rushed there by the crowd.
In the morning there were many people and children. He Xiaoyun didn’t want to hang out. Under Xu Lanxiang’s guidance, she bought all the things she wanted, only food such as rice and noodles. Because it was too heavy to mention, she only bought enough. Eat it in a few days.
Xu Lanxiang also bought some dishes, and said to her on the way back: “There is a market the day after tomorrow. The farmers in the suburbs will sell the vegetables they grow. They are fresher than the ones on the market. If you are interested, I will call you at that time.”
“Okay, thanks to my sister-in-law’s help in the past two days, I will invite you to come home for dinner when you are settled.” He Xiaoyun said.
This is not a polite remark. When she ate the meal delivered by Xu Lanxiang last night, she thought about it for a few days, and when she got used to it, she would find a time when everyone was free, and invite Wei Jianwei’s good comrades and their family members to have dinner at home. Meet everyone officially.
“Then I’ll wait for a big meal.” Xu Lanxiang didn’t shy away and said with a smile.
Back home, He Xiaoyun put all the things she bought on the table. She bought a catty of meat, a fish, a few catties of vegetables, 20 eggs, and the essential oil, salt, sugar, rice and noodles. A few dollars go out.
I don’t know that firewood is expensive when I am not in charge. Although I am happy to spend money, I really feel distressed. I used to spend less than a few cents a month in Qingshuihe, and the vegetables were grown by my own family. The firewood was picked up on the mountain and everywhere. need money.
Of course, she didn’t eat fish and meat very much when she was at home. She didn’t plan to be so extravagant in the future. She just thought, after all, it’s the first meal for a group here. The meaning is different, so I bought more.
Wei Jianwei gave her in the morning, in addition to various tickets, there are three great unity. At this time, more than half of the tickets have been spent. He Xiaoyun thought to herself that she didn’t know how much his salary was, and she had to plan carefully in the future.
After calculating the small account book in her heart, she rolled up her sleeves and prepared to cook, Wang Derong ran over to play with Wei Yuanhang, and the two little guys were about to go downstairs.
There are guards in the military’s family area. He Xiaoyun doesn’t worry about safety, but still says: “Don’t run too far, I will ask you to eat later.”
Wei Yuanhang responded and ran out, and started running wild in the corridor. In the past, his playmate was Yanyan, and the girl was at least gentler. Now that a boy with the same skin has arrived, He Xiaoyun can already think of how the two will turn to the sky in the future.
There were no children stumbled. She was familiar with it in the kitchen for a while, groping to make two meats and one vegetable, namely braised pork, stewed fish soup, fried rapeseed, and cooked a pot of rice.
Seeing that the time was almost up, thinking about whether to call the child back, Xu Lanxiang’s voice next door rang: “Wang Derong-come back for dinner!”
He Xiaoyun listened attentively, and two voices soon came from the stairs, running and making noises. After a while, Wei Yuanhang sweated profusely and appeared in front of her.
“If you are smart, if they go back to eat, you know they will come back.” He Xiaoyun said while wiping his sweat.
Just don’t know the other one, do you know if you go home for dinner?
In the camp, Wei Jianwei was about to leave, and Lin Yuefei caught up from behind, “Old Wei, the cafeteria is over there, where are you going?”
Wei Jianwei glanced at him, “Go home for dinner.”
At that glance, there was contempt in the silence.
Lin Yuefei was taken aback for a while before he realized that Wei’s family members have already arrived, and they are now people who can go home to eat, unlike theirs who can only eat in the cafeteria!
“Eh -” Wei Jianwei has gone far in just a few seconds, so he had to shout from behind, “I’ll go to your place!”
“I didn’t make your meal.”
“How can there be no food for me? The big deal is that I will eat less and just eat three bowls, right? Old Wei? Old Wei!”
