Lu Jingchuan first served soup to the mother and daughter, and then asked: "Mom, Linglong, do you like to eat cuttlefish?"
Gong Linglong nodded. She really likes to eat cuttlefish, but cuttlefish is very expensive these days and may not be available in state-owned stores in big cities like Seoul. The cuttlefish she ate today was mailed from Kyoto by her mother-in-law.
White Narcissus also likes to eat it. While eating, she said: "Squid is nutritious, nourishes the kidneys and yin, nourishes the blood and strengthens the spleen. It can be eaten by both men and women. Lesbians can eat more, especially during pregnancy and confinement. It is good for the body." .”
Seeing that it has so many effects and can be eaten by pregnant women, Lu Jingchuan took a look at his daughter-in-law and immediately arranged: "I have a friend who lives by the sea. My grandparents and parents are fishermen. They often go out to sea to fish. I wrote to him and asked him to take it." He mailed us more dried cuttlefish. Linglong, you can stew more at home later."
Seeing that her son-in-law was thinking about her daughter, Bai Narcissus smiled slightly and said, "Jingchuan, you also work hard in training. You must have suffered some injuries when you were performing tasks outside. You should also drink more nourishing soup to recuperate your body. "
"Okay, let's eat together."
Lu Jingchuan joined the army when he was sixteen or seventeen years old. He was later recruited into a special elite team because of his outstanding performance. He followed his predecessors to perform secret and dangerous missions, and he did suffer from some old wounds and diseases.
Every time he overtrained before, the injured area would always hurt a little, but since getting married, his old injury no longer hurts, and he feels that his body has returned to its best condition.
He attributed all of this to his wife. Thinking that her daughter-in-law carefully prepared three meals a day for him, stewed soup every three to five days to supplement his nutrition, and made him herbal tea prepared by his mother-in-law at night, his body must have been improving unknowingly. Prepared.
The weekend is here in a blink of an eye, and the cultural performance that has been postponed for January is finally about to begin.
The cultural performance is scheduled for the evening. The military wives received the program list from the art troupe early in the morning. The poetry recitation program was ranked third, the third troupe's program was ranked sixth, and Gong Linglong's personal speech Ranked ninth, the duo’s classical dance was the finale.
The military wives and children were very relaxed during rehearsals, but when it came time to go on stage, they were all so nervous that they were at a loss.
After lunch, everyone gathered in the rehearsal conference room. Wang Yumiao brought all the cosmetics and props over. Seeing everyone pacing back and forth nervously, he was very funny: "Don't be nervous, relax."
"Oh, this job of performing on stage is really not suitable for me. I would rather dig the ground and pick dung." Liao Qiuhua frowned.
Gong Linglong laughed when she heard this and was the first to call her name: "Sister-in-law Liao, don't go back and forth. You sit down first and I'll put your hair up first."
"Do I still need to put my hair in a bun?"
Liao Qiuhua shook off her shoulder-length braids. She had braided them with great care this morning. She personally thought it was pretty good.
"I'll change your braid for you."
Gong Linglong pulled her to sit on the bench, took out a comb and a bunch of hairbands woven with colorful ribbons, and helped her braid centipede braids neatly and skillfully.
"Wow, this braid looks great."
Wang Yumiao had just finished putting on makeup for the two girls. She walked over and took a look at the new hairstyles. She screamed on the spot: "Linglong, I also entrusted you with my hair, braided like this."
"OK."
Gong Linglong nodded and gave Liao Qiuhua a small mirror to look at, "Sister-in-law Liao, take a look, are you satisfied?"
"Oh, who is the pretty wife in the mirror?" Liao Qiuhua said shamelessly.
"Ha ha..."
A group of sisters-in-law and children all laughed.
After Gong Linglong braided her hair, he used makeup tools to help her shape her eyebrows and smooth her face. Then Bai Narcissus came over to apply cream, powder and lipstick on her.
Cosmetics these days are very simple and there are few makeup tools, but everyone usually looks bare-faced, and even with simple makeup, they look particularly beautiful.
"That's it."
As soon as the white narcissus stopped, Liao Qiuhua immediately picked up the mirror and looked at it. When she saw herself in the mirror, which was white and rosy and beautiful, it took her a while to say a word: "Is this really me?"
"Qiuhua, with the way you look now, when you perform on stage today, you will definitely charm the first battalion commander to death." Yang Xiaolan next to her teased her.
Gong Linglong smiled softly, took the mirror away from Liao Qiuhua's hand, and pushed her away, "Sister-in-law Liao, go put on the floral top you wore a few days ago. You can wear this coat. Take it off when you go on stage.”
"Put on those little leather shoes of yours. Don't keep them in the closet and be reluctant to wear them."
Yang Xiaolan pushed her away and sat on the bench first, smiling and saying: "Aunt Bai, Linglong, do it for me first."
"Okay, come one by one."
More than twenty people, large and small, were going to perform on stage, and only three of them knew how to put on makeup and fix their hair, so they speeded up and the others cooperated without wasting time.
At 6:30 in the evening, the artistic performance started on time.
Deputy Commander Li and another female leader co-hosted the party. Thousands of officers and soldiers in the audience sat down to watch the performance in formal attire. Thunderous applause broke out as soon as it started.
The art troupe's program didn't have much new ideas. The opening was the same as before, with a lively group waist dance.
The dancers are all young, beautiful and energetic. They are a unique and beautiful scenery in the military camp, so they won waves of cheers as soon as they appeared.
After the group dance, the second program was a drama performance.
Originally the protagonist of this drama performance was Meng Xiaoying, but now she has been fired and has to be replaced by someone else. This newly promoted actor has worked overtime and practiced hard in the past half month, and tonight she also presented her most perfect performance.
The performance was still going on on the front stage, and the military wives were preparing backstage. Gong Linglong and Wang Yumiao were the backbone of everyone, and they were cheering them on over and over again.
When the applause in front of them fell, the host came on stage: "The next people to perform on the stage are the family members of the military wives of our first and second regiments. They will bring us an impassioned collective recitation of modern poetry. Please give us the warmest applause and welcome They come on stage.”
"Walk!"
Jiang Yaping took a few deep breaths, raised her hands and took the lead on the stage.
Gong Linglong and Wang Yumiao led the children onto the stage from both sides and quickly led them to their respective positions.
After the military wives all stood up consciously, Gong Linglong, who was wearing a white shirt and skirt, borrowed a microphone from Deputy Commander Li and stood in the middle with a graceful expression: "Dear leaders and brothers, good evening, I am military sister-in-law Gong Linglong, and I am honored to lead all the sisters-in-law and children to perform on stage tonight."
"We will perform a total of four programs in this cultural performance. Now we will present the first collective program, reciting the modern poem "I am proud, I am Chinese"."
