After the Mid-Autumn Festival, my father didn’t come, but my second brother Zhou Jianping came.

Lu Yuzhu was surprised. "Second brother, Second sister-in-law's child is still young, why are you making this trip?"

The people in the Huang family are already troublesome. Isn't it creating conflicts if my second brother comes here?

Zhou Jianping, "I was supposed to come two months ago, but because the child is young and your second sister-in-law just came back from her parents' home, I stayed with you for a while longer.

Now that I have my elder brother and his wife to help me, and Hehua can take care of the children, there will be no problem."

Zhou Dazhu looked at his second son happily and said, "Sit down and take a rest first. It's not lunch time yet. Ask your mother to make you two fried eggs."

Zhou Jianping glanced at Yuzhu cautiously and said, "Dad, don't. I came here after breakfast. We can just have lunch together later."

Lu Yuzhu said, "Mom, you hold the baby and I'll cook. Two fried eggs are enough. The men who do the cooking work are very hard. They need at least six!"

Zhou Dazhu looked at his son and laughed foolishly, "Your sister-in-law made it for you. Don't be shy. We are all family."

Aunt Zhou, who was picking vegetables, scolded, "The second son is my son, how can I treat him badly? I'll do it. Three poached eggs are just right."

The salted poached eggs were served, and Lu Yuzhu sat beside them holding Sanbao. "Second brother, eat while it's hot. What's the matter with you this time?"

I hope something strange is happening to the Huang family again.

Zhou Jianping was thirsty and drank a mouthful of soup first. "My eldest brother told me last time when he came back that you have five children and you will definitely not have enough space to live in the future.

We discussed that your yard is quite large, and since there is a vegetable garden behind the wall, we can add a house in the yard."

Everyone then looked towards the yard.

This yard is quite big, not to mention building one, we can even build two.

Lu Yuzhu immediately made the decision, "Then let's add another room. It will be right next to the area where the green onions are planted in the front, and the small vegetable garden can still be preserved.

Brothers are so awesome!"

Although Sister Hehua was speechless, the two brothers of the Zhou family really had nothing to say.

Zhou Dazhu, "Then when Jianguo comes back, you two brothers should go out together to buy bricks and other things, and try to finish building it as soon as possible, so that the second brother can come home earlier."

Xu Guihua, who was with her baby, was full of envy. "Deputy Commander Zhou's brothers are so nice! They're nothing like our Jiang family relatives, who we can't rely on for anything."

It happened that Zhou Jianguo and Battalion Commander Jiang came back for dinner.

Captain Jiang glared, "My brother is still back home, how did he offend you again? You are such an ungrateful woman, aren't you doing yourself any good by marrying me?"

Xu Guihua chuckled and said, "I was just saying this casually. Why do you take it so seriously?"

When Zhou Jianguo heard that his second brother was coming to help build the house, he thought it was a feasible idea.

"We'll build a room in this yard. It's quite large and will be used for the babies to live in.

When next summer vacation comes, I’ll bring Hongyu and the others over to play. It’ll be more convenient to live here with an extra room.”

"Okay!" Zhou Jianping grinned, feeling very happy when he heard that the third brother was being so affectionate with his children.

Captain Jiang joked, "Then your family will have more children, and the compound will be more lively."

Aunt Zhou called from the kitchen, "Old man, hurry up and get the wine glasses. We've cooked a lot of dishes today, so let's have a little wine for each person to cheer us up!"

The old couple are used to living comfortably here and can make their own decisions about food and accommodation. This is all thanks to the kindness of the third daughter-in-law, who is also generous with her money.

Xu Guihua quickly put the baby in the stroller bed, then went to the kitchen to bring out steamed egg custard to feed the three little ones.

They are more than 5 months old and have started to eat complementary foods.

Lu Yuzhu also went to get a bowl and followed suit to feed the baby.

The three little ones sat steadily in the stroller bed, holding on to the railings with their little hands, and opened their mouths to cry for food.

It is impossible for adults to eat if they are not fed.

Either this one is calling out or that one is making noise, making it impossible for you to eat peacefully.

Hey hey hey.

The eldest and second child stood around watching. They were grown-up kids now and sat at the table to eat with the adults.

Seeing the greedy look on the faces of my younger brothers and sisters makes me happy and amused.

Erbao would reach out and pinch Sanbao's chubby little hand from time to time. He loved his sister the most.

Dabao looked at his two younger brothers, holding a small handkerchief with cherries printed on it in his hand, wiping his younger brothers' mouths from time to time.

The eldest sister is super gentle and friendly.

Zhou Jianguo and Captain Jiang went into the kitchen to help serve the dishes.

Salted edamame, braised peanuts, dried celery shreds, tofu with green onions, scrambled eggs with green peppers, shredded pork with garlic, stir-fried green beans, cabbage and pork slices, bean curd leaves, and fish soup with tofu.

When Captain Jiang saw it, he saw that today was a very good meal.

Xiaolong stood behind him, sticking out his tongue.

Zhou Jianping kept rubbing his hands, feeling a little uneasy. It seemed that the extra dishes were served for him today.

If we continue to eat like this, how much more money will it cost!

It seems that I need to speed up the work at hand.

Within two days, everything we needed was bought, including the tiles.

The women took their children and went to the inner room.

Zhou Dazhu stayed outside to help the second boy.

Lu Yuzhu took care of her mother-in-law, "Mom, the food these days must not be less. Cook more meat and fish. Don't save money. Go to the military supply point early to buy food.

"My second brother works hard, so he can't afford to eat poorly."

The two brothers helped them and never asked for any payment. They always took the initiative to find work.

Just for this reason, Lu Yuzhu couldn't be stingy.

Aunt Zhou quickly responded, "Okay, I'll do as you say."

Zhou Jianping has excellent craftsmanship. After the house was built, he painted it inside and out.

Xu Guihua praised repeatedly, "Auntie Zhou, your son has good skills and works in an orderly manner. He will never have to worry about food."

Aunt Zhou said, "They earn their hard-earned money, and their life is not as comfortable as the third brother's."

Xu Guihua rolled her eyes. "Of course. A wife like my eldest sister earns as much money as two men. There's no comparison."

Lu Yuzhu came out holding the child, "Sister Jiang, you're talking nonsense! The father is the best in our family!"

Xu Guihua chuckled, "I know you don't have time to sell popsicles this summer, so you've lost some income. But when the kids are older, you can go back to working!"

At lunch that day, Zhou Jianping looked at the third brother and said, "Jianguo, I've finished my work and will be back tomorrow."

Zhou Jianguo, "I have a young child at home, so I won't keep you here anymore. I'll take you to the bus tomorrow."

Zhou Jianping, "Let this room dry for a few days before moving in."

While they were talking here, Lu Yuzhu hurried back to her room and dragged out some more things from some corner.

"Second brother, take all these things back with you. Some are for your two sisters-in-law, and some are for the children."

The second brother was a little embarrassed. "I always bring gifts back when I come here. I feel embarrassed."

Lu Yuzhu, "Why are you being so polite to my brothers at home?"

Then he took out a large oil bottle from under the bed and said, "This contains nutrient water for pig farming. I have prepared it well. If you come, just take some back.

But use it carefully."

Zhou Jianping's eyes lit up, "This is a good thing. We took it back and put it in my eldest brother's room, for fear that my lotus would subsidize her parents' family."

Lu Yuzhu smiled secretly. In fact, this was all spiritual spring water with some other things added, but she couldn't say it out loud.
