His predecessor failed
Chapter 8: Days at the He Family
Su Zhuzhu had a very comfortable time in Beijing. Uncle He had a high rank and was allocated a separate two-story building in the family compound. Su Zhuzhu lived on the second floor with the He couple, while Grandpa He, the guards and the nanny lived on the first floor. Grandpa He usually lived in a nursing home instead of at home, and only came home for reunions during holidays.
In the past few days, He's father and He Ningguo only had one dinner together. He's father was in a high position and was busy from morning to night every day, but he took out a dinner time to go home to welcome Su Zhuzhu to show his attention to Su Zhuzhu.
He's father is tall and sturdy with a stern face. Even in middle age, he is still full of masculinity. It is true that the older the wine, the better it tastes. He and He's mother look very good together. When they met for the first time, he made Su Zhuzhu starry-eyed.
He's father had a gentle attitude. He had been taking care of He's mother and Su Zhuzhu during the meal. Seeing this pair that looked like mother and daughter, He's mother seemed to be full of energy and extremely happy, and He's father was also happy. He has been busy all these years, and He's mother retired from the army early in order to cooperate with his work. Yes, He's father and mother are a revolutionary couple. He's father also knew that He's mother had been alone at home for so many years. In the early years, she worried about her sister-in-law. After her sister-in-law got married, she had to take care of the trivial matters for the He family and be filial to the old man. He Qiaojin, that bad boy, didn't go home much since he went to the army. When He's father thought about these years, he felt sorry for his wife. He's mother has a more straightforward personality. She can embarrass people on the spot if she doesn't like something. She was a famous hot pepper in the compound back then. There are many disputes in the military compound. Mother He knows her personality. She is afraid of causing trouble for the family in the past few years. Except for the two sisters who are close to her, she is not close to other people. So Father He knows that his wife is lonely at home. He is getting busier and busier. He will go out for inspection soon. Now seeing that Su Zhuzhu and his wife are so harmonious, it is really a good thing for them to keep each other company at home. Zhuzhu is impeccable except that she is too polite and a little timid. The old man is really discerning and has decided on a good marriage!
After dinner, He's father explained that he was going on a business trip for a few days. In order to take care of the two female comrades at home, he specially left Lin Wu to run errands. The next day, He's father got up at dawn. He's mother was already used to it. She gave her husband a few words of advice and sent him out.
Su Zhuzhu's room is located at the easternmost end of the second floor. It is a large suite with a small reception room that can also be used as a study, a bathroom, and a large bedroom.
It can be seen that the room was specially arranged to welcome Su Zhuzhu, and many items are new. The romantic black iron bed is matched with layers of white tents. On the bed is a pink four-piece set that He's mother bought from the department store. It is an imported product. It must be said that He's mother has a good aesthetic. In order to match the overall look, she also specially asked a tailor to remake white embroidered curtains. Opposite the window is a large wardrobe with four doors. The dressing table is also newly added. There is also a peacock blue three-seater leather sofa in the living room. There is a tea tray, a teapot and four glasses on the long coffee table. Opposite the sofa is the window, a large desk, a European-style table lamp, a pen holder, and a large vertical bookcase next to it. Su Zhuzhu also looked at the books in the bookcase these two days. It is full of military books and a few red books. There are two thermos on the floor near the door of the bookcase. Turning around is the bathroom, and the toiletries are also brand new.
To be honest, Su Zhuzhu almost couldn't maintain her personality and became sisters with He's mother. He's mother even prepared pajamas and slippers for her. It would be a loss if she didn't become sisters. As for mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, the relationship is too complicated. Sisters are very good, and He's mother's temperament is very compatible with her. Su Zhuzhu has been very good these days. She eats well, lives well, and is in a good mood. There are not many rules in the He family. However, she will not live in the He family permanently, and she still has to maintain the proper manners and etiquette. It's just that she relaxed a little when getting along with He's mother, and brought out a little of her own nature, and got along well with He's mother.
"Zhuzhu, wake up! Come and have breakfast. Today, Yang Ma specially changed the taste. Let's have whitebait noodles."
"Good morning, Aunt Wu!"
Su Zhuzhu smiled sweetly at He's mother, then quickly went downstairs and walked towards the restaurant.
"Aunt Wu, where are Uncle He and Brother Xiao Wu?" Seeing that there were only herself, He's mother, and the nanny Aunt Yang in the restaurant, Su Zhuzhu felt embarrassed to start eating first.
"Your Uncle He has to go out very early. Xiao Lin has gone to see him off. He will be back soon. Let's eat first and don't wait for him. The noodles are ready and we have to eat them quickly. Come on, come on, sit next to me."
He's mother looked at the pretty girl with delicate and fair skin with a smile, thinking that she really has a good eye. Although Zhuzhu was dressed in gray on the day she arrived in Beijing, she had a really good foundation, a pair of sparkling peach blossom eyes, a delicate and straight nose, and a cherry mouth with a faint dimple at the corner of her lips when she smiled. She was just as graceful and exquisite as described in the books. It must be the southern climate and soil that nurtured her.
Su Zhuzhu has also learned about Lin Wu's situation in the past few days. Lin Wu is the child of He's father's comrade-in-arms. Lin's mother died when Lin Wu was a child due to poor health. When Lin was seven years old, his father was unable to come down from the battlefield, so in an emergency, he was directly entrusted to He's father. The He family felt sorry for this child who had no father or mother since he was a child. Since he came to the He family, he has been given enough love and care. He grew up with He Qiaojin since he was a child. The two boys are so close that they wear the same pants. They are guards, and they are no different from their own children. They are still young, so they will be kept by their side for the time being. After two years, they will be released to experience some experience. After all, a wolf with blood cannot be raised in a cage.
After knowing Lin Wu's situation, Su Zhuzhu immediately changed her tone and called him Brother Xiaowu, which made Lin Wu very happy. Lin Wu originally supported He Qiaojin, and he also planned to follow Brother Qiaojin's footsteps and serve his country for life. Now, seeing the well-behaved little sister blinking her watery eyes and looking at him with a caring face, Lin Wu instantly smiled foolishly and scratched the back of his head embarrassedly. Brother Qiaojin, Sister Zhuzhu is really good, it would be a pity to miss her. Originally, he was planning to cooperate with Brother Qiaojin to find a way to postpone this marriage, but he was directly instigated by the call of Brother Xiaowu. He was ready to go back and persuade He Qiaojin that he should not miss such a cute girl like Zhuzhu. The comrades were right. He still had to find a partner as soon as possible. Who could resist this soft and cute girl?
Each person had a bowl of whitebait noodles on the table, as well as a dish of pickled radish that Aunt Yang had made herself and a plate of cold shredded potatoes. Compared to many other families, this was already a very rich breakfast. After all, the He family was well off. In those days, you needed a ticket to buy anything, so you couldn't buy anything good. Besides, Aunt Yang's cooking skills were not bad. A bowl of whitebait noodles required a lot of effort.
