In the past, the original owner quarreled with Cheng Jingmo every now and then. Every time they quarreled, they would smash this and that. There were only two or three bowls left at home.
The original owner went out to restaurants every day. Cheng Jingmo and Xiaojie usually ate the food brought from the canteen, or just made a random dish and ate it.
Today there are more dishes and more people, so the bowls are not enough.
Cheng Jingmo said with a slight embarrassment: "Xiaojie, go to Aunt Liu Zhen's house next door to borrow four bowls."
Xiaojie said: "We are only three bowls short."
"Borrow four."
After a while, Xiaojie came back with four big bowls.
Cheng Jingmo first took a bowl and scooped out a bowl full of braised pork. He then put the plain steamed buns given by Li Guihua into the steamer and scooped out a bowl of braised pork in the bowl.
It seems that when I was about to return the bowl, I brought a bowl of braised pork.
Needless to say, dog men are very good at dealing with people and the world.
After ladling two bowls like this, there was only half a pot of braised pork left in the basin.
"Let's eat." Cheng Jingmo asked, "Which of you will eat vegetarian buns? Sister-in-law Osmanthus gave them to you."
Li Guihua gave three plain steamed buns, but Yu Xiangnian didn't want to eat them. It happened that there were three men, one for each of them.
After dinner, Yu Xiangnian went to wash the dishes, but Yu Xiangyang stopped him again, "Let him wash the dishes! You don't do these things at home, why should you do them when you marry him!"
He is indeed my brother! Protect it tightly!
Cheng Jingmo didn't have any expression on his face. He tidied up obediently and went to wash the dishes.
Xiaojie picked up a bowl of braised pork and was about to return the bowl to Li Guihua's house. Yu Xiangnian said: "There are four candied haws in the jar. You take two to the two little girls and you eat the remaining two."
"Okay, Auntie."
There were only two brothers and sisters left in the hall. Yu Xiangyang lowered his voice and said, "Niannian, don't think so wildly. Where can you find a good man like Cheng Jingmo after you get divorced?"
Yu Xiangyang began to detail Cheng Jingmo's good things, "He does all the housework and doesn't let you do anything. He is reluctant to spend a penny and gives you so much money every month. You always quarrel with him, He tolerates you... Look at you, you are fierce, lazy and mischievous, yet he treats you like an ancestor!"
Yu Xiangnian: "..." Is it necessary to praise those who are superior and disdain those who are inferior?
"Except for his dull temper, he is good at everything! No! My mother said, he is not dull, he is deep and reserved, and he is the material for big things! Look at him, he is the youngest deputy commander in the army , you will have a good life from now on!"
Yu Xiangnian said to himself that Cheng Jingmo is very good, but the relationship between the two is tied together by this so-called "marriage", which is boring!
Yu Xiangyang glanced at Cheng Jingmo who was washing dishes in the kitchen, took out a few Unity tickets and some tickets from his jacket pocket, and stuffed them into Yu Xiangnian's hand.
"That's all I brought today. Take it and buy whatever you want. If you ever run out of money, tell me, don't ask Cheng Jingmo for it again. I don't need any money anyway!"
He paused and then said, "Look at what Xiaojie needs and buy him some. Don't spend it all alone."
Yu Xiangyang is close to Cheng Jingmo, and he knows their marriage situation very well.
Therefore, from time to time, he would buy some things and come to visit his home, and secretly give Yu Xiangnian some money, tickets, etc. In fact, he came to help Yu Xiangnian behave and try his best to help her maintain her precarious marriage.
Yu Xiangnian looked at the money and tickets in his hand, hesitated for a while, then put them into his bag, "Thank you, third brother."
She and Cheng Jingmo have no money now, and the family still needs expenses. Moreover, if she doesn't collect these things, Yu Xiangyang will be unhappy and suspicious.
Yu Xiangyang added: "By the way, I heard that you beat Company Commander Zhang yesterday, and the political commissar will come to your home to talk to you later."
"Well, if he hits his wife, I will hit him."
Yu Xiangyang said: "As long as you think you are doing the right thing, Third Brother will support you. We will talk later, I will be here too, don't be afraid."
Yu Xiangnian was a little touched. In the memory of the original owner, her father and three brothers loved her very much, so they spoiled her to be unruly and willful.
She laughed and said, "As long as the third brother is here, I'm not afraid!"
Just as he was talking, the political commissar came with one of his subordinates.
The political commissar's name was Su Mingliang. As soon as he came in, he saw Cheng Jingmo washing dishes in the kitchen and said with a smile, "Deputy Commander Cheng is really a model husband in our 9th Army."
As soon as Yu Xiangyang heard this voice, he immediately stood up and saluted, with a loud voice, "Political Commissar Su!"
Political Commissar Su: "Comrade Yu Xiangyang is here too."
Yu Xiangnian also stood up and said with a smile: "Commissar Su, you are here."
Political Commissar Su smiled at Xiang Nian and nodded, "Comrade Yu, excuse me."
When Cheng Jingmo heard the sound, he also came out of the kitchen and saluted in the same way, "Political Commissar Su!"
Political Commissar Su waved his hand, "At home, everyone is more casual."
"Political Commissar Su, sit down." Yu Xiangnian asked them to sit on the bench next to the Eight Immortals table. There was no other table in the house.
She went to the top of the cupboard and took out the tea jar, made four jars of tea, and placed it on the table in front of them.
Cheng Jingmo looked at Yu Xiangnian's actions with mixed emotions, confusion and surprise...
I'm still a little happy that Yu Xiangnian finally didn't embarrass him this time!
Political Commissar Su, his subordinates, Yu Xiangyang, and Cheng Jingmo each sat on one side of the Eight Immortals table. After Yu Xiangnian finished his work, he sat next to Cheng Jingmo, on the same bench as him.
Political Commissar Su took a sip of tea and cleared his throat, "That's right. Comrade Yang Qing'an and I are here today to talk to Comrade Yu Xiangnian from the delegation about yesterday's domestic violence incident involving Company Commander Zhang Hongzhi."
Political Commissar Su first expressed his position that the army would not allow domestic violence among soldiers, and then praised Yu Xiangnian's bravery.
Then he gave some advice to Xiang Nian: Don't act impulsively, and consider the consequences. What if someone is injured? Next time something like this happens, report it to the group and don't take action.
Yu Xiangnian nodded and said with a serious face: "The political commissar is right. I accept the political commissar's opinion. But next time I encounter such a thing, I will still take action."
Four grown men: "..."
Political Commissar Su clenched his fist to his mouth and coughed, then said, "Comrade Yu has a straightforward temperament, but the regiment is worried that you might be accidentally injured if you offer help out of kindness."
Yu Xiangnian: "Oh, I will be careful and run away if I can't beat you."
Political Commissar Su: "..." This conversation is a bit unbearable. Why don't you follow the routine?
Yu Xiangyang suppressed his smile and rescued him in time, "Commissar Su, my sister is not very good at talking, but she has already listened to what you said."
Political Commissar Su came down the steps, took a sip of tea, and looked at Cheng Jingmo, "Deputy Commander Cheng, you are an excellent soldier and the husband of Comrade Yu. You must teach by words and deeds and do a good job in the work of family members."
Cheng Jingmo always looked expressionless, "Okay, political commissar."
Political Commissar Su added: "I heard that Comrade Yu is pregnant?"
