The military master pledged his life to the country, and the military wife pledged her life to him.

Captain Li, who was working, was stunned when he heard what Zhao Yufen said next to him.

He subconsciously looked at Captain Zhou: "Are you going to have dinner with us tonight?"

Captain Zhou: “No please!”

"Then why did you ask Mr. Fu's wife to come to your house to help with cooking?" asked Captain Li.

"His wife's cooking is delicious. My wife was inspired and decided to learn a few tricks from her, so she went out to buy the vegetables. Or maybe she was tempted by the smell of meat wafting from Old Fu's kitchen. Anyway, I haven't heard that she is going to invite anyone for dinner!"

Captain Li: "I thought you were going to give Lao Fu and his friends a welcome party?"

"I think so. They should go too!"

Fu Huaichuan: "My wife has prepared dinner."

As the three were talking, they heard Lin Xi say, "Sister-in-law, wait a moment, I'll be right there."

Zhao Yufen: "I'm not in a hurry, take your time."

"Know it!"

Lin Xi went into the house and gave each of Fu Ning and the three children a White Rabbit candy before taking them out.

As soon as she appeared, Fu Huaichuan and other men who were working immediately looked over.

"Xixi, this is Captain Li we told you about before." Weekend introduced him to Lin Xi enthusiastically.

"Hello, Captain Li. I'm Lin Xi, Fu Huaichuan's wife. I'm very happy to meet you. You see, there's nothing to treat you and Captain Zhou at home. How about you take some kimchi back to eat? The kimchi in our house was brought back from our hometown by Fu Huaichuan and I!"

"This, this is so embarrassing!" Captain Li said a little embarrassedly.

Lin Xi: "It's okay, it's not something valuable. The main thing is that we just arrived and there is nothing good to give at home."

"Xixi, go and do your work. When you're done, go get some kimchi for Lao Li."

"I've also made the pickled leeks. If Captain Li doesn't mind, you can give Captain Li a few bottles as well. I'll bring Captain Zhou's leeks over as well. Old Zhou, your leeks are soaking in the water tank. Take as much as you want!"

It’s the weekend: “Okay, sister-in-law!”

Fu Huaichuan: "Watch your hands, don't bump into them!"

"I know. I brought Ningning and Dongdong with me!"

Fu Huaichuan: "Ningning, don't make trouble when you go to Captain Zhou's house..."

Fu Ning: "Fourth brother, don't worry, we are very good and will never cause trouble for Xixi or embarrass you. We are leaving now, just work hard!"

This is the first time that Fu Ning and his friends go out to visit friends with Lin Xi!

Everyone was extremely excited.

Seeing them happily following Lin Xi and chatting and laughing with her, Captain Li couldn't help but sigh, "I didn't expect that Dongdong and his two siblings would have such a good relationship with Old Fu's wife. When they lived in our family compound, they all looked like strangers were not allowed to approach them. They were never as close to each other as they are now!"

It's the weekend. "How can the relationship with the stepmother whom I saved myself and chose myself be bad? Didn't you see that Mrs. Fu went into the house to get them candy before taking them out? Even a biological mother would rarely be willing to give her children such food. Not only that, Mrs. Fu even bought them milk powder to supplement their nutrition!"

"Well, three children, it must cost a lot of money a month, right?"

Captain Li also has three children at home, but he and his wife have never bought any milk powder for their three children.

Even the children in the malted milk family drank very little.

Fu Huaichuan said, "My wife said that no matter how poor we are, we can't take money from our children and family, because health is the capital of revolution, so our family rarely saves money on food, but she and the children wear clothes that have been discarded by the family. Oh, by the way, Lao Zhou, have you heard about the radio and sewing machine I asked you to help buy?"

"Not yet. I'll let you know when there's news."

Captain Li: "You want to buy a radio and a sewing machine?"

"When we got married, I promised my wife that I would buy her a three-wheeler and a bell, but so far I have only bought her a watch."

It's the weekend: "As long as someone else's wife has it, Lao Fu will arrange it for his wife even if he has to borrow money, because his wife has suffered a lot with him."

Captain Zhou: "It's really unfair, but, Xiao Fu, do you have enough money?"

"The little money that Lao Zhou saved in the past few years is all here with me, so it will be enough for now."

It's the weekend: "In order for Lao Fu to get married smoothly, I gave him all my family savings. How could his money not be enough?"

It was not until then that Captain Li truly understood why coming to the Fu family on weekends was like going back to his own home.

The area of ​​land to be cultivated in the Fu family's yard was not very large, so the four men worked together and planted the vegetable garden in a short time. After that, they went to find some wooden boards and built nests for Fu Huaichuan and his friends for chickens, ducks and geese. After finishing all this, they sat back in the corridor to drink tea and rest on the weekend.

Fu Huaichuan went to the kitchen and brought Captain Li a bottle of kimchi and a bottle of pickled leeks: "Remember to wash the glass bottles and return them to me after you finish eating!"

Looking at the familiar glass bottle, Captain Li asked, "Old Zhou, weren't those pickled vegetables you ate earlier made by Old Fu's wife?"

"What else? Who else but his wife would be willing to give me food like that!"

Fu Huaichuan: "Where is the empty bottle you finished eating?"

"As for the dormitory, I'll bring it to you tomorrow."

"Although these pickled leeks were just made this afternoon, you'd better eat them tomorrow morning so that they will taste better." Fu Huaichuan reminded Captain Li.

Captain Li: "Didn't you just arrive today? Why are you in such a hurry to make pickles?"

Fu Huaichuan glanced at Zhou Mo and said, "Ask him."

It’s the weekend: “Because I want to eat!”

Captain Zhou: "I provided the leeks, garlic and the glass bottle in your hand!"

Captain Li: “…” It turns out he’s the only one who gets it for free!

The Zhou family next door.

When Zhao Yufen saw Lin Xi and Fu Ning and the others who were following her, she said, "Xixi, you guys sit down first. I'll go to the inner room and get some food for Ning Ning and the others!"

"What are you going to get? They just came here after eating, and they still have candies in their mouths and hands!"

Lin Xi grabbed Zhao Yufen and walked towards the kitchen.

"Sister Zhao, they are here to help me. You don't have to entertain them specially, otherwise I won't dare to bring them to visit your house in the future."

It would be fine if it was just one child, but now there are four or five of them, and they can eat enough to bankrupt the Zhou family. That's why Lin Xi went back to the house to get food for them before taking Fu Ning and the others out.

Zhao Yufen: "This is the first time they come to my house, I can't just say nothing!"

"Aunt Zhao, look at our bellies!" Fu Liangchen showed off his round belly. "After you left, Xixi made two small bowls of noodles for each of us, one bowl of oil-splashed noodles and one bowl of臊子面. We can't eat them now, and our bellies can't hold any more!"

Zhao Yufen looked at Lin Xi in surprise and asked, "Why did you suddenly think of making noodles for them?"

"We planned to eat noodles with sauerkraut in the evening. When I was frying the sauerkraut, I saw that they were drooling with greed, so I made them a bowl of noodles with oil. But after I finished frying the sauerkraut, they all stared at my sauerkraut eagerly, so I made them some more."

"Old Zhou and the others ate too?"

"Ah."

"Two bowls, too."

"Ah."

Zhao Yufen: “…”

"This old Zhou is really..."

Zhao Yufen had originally planned to save some meat for tomorrow's meal, but after hearing what Lin Xi said, she decisively cut up all the three pounds of meat she had bought.

I plan to let Captain Zhou eat his fill in one go so that he won’t be embarrassed later.
