Xu Qingluo enjoyed Zhou Yuheng's care, and the two of them had breakfast and lunch together today.

At this time, everyone at home except Zhou Yuheng and Xu Qingluo was out.

Zhou's father went to work, and Zhou's mother made an appointment with her little sisters to go shopping today.

It was also fortunate that Zhou's mother was not at home, otherwise if Zhou's mother saw Xu Qingluo's trembling legs, she would have to find a crack to crawl into.

After Xu Qingluo had eaten and drunk her fill, Zhou Yuheng went to the kitchen window to cut the frozen pear into pieces, and then brought it out to Xu Qingluo.

As a Suzhou native, Xu Qingluo drinks more hot tea in winter.

She rarely eats such cold food in winter.

Zhou Yuheng was also worried that she would not be used to the food and that she would catch a cold.

That's why I cut it into small pieces for her to taste. If she doesn't like it, I will help her solve it myself.

Xu Qingluo tasted a small piece. Although the frozen pear was very cold, it tasted quite special, especially the juice which was very sweet.

Xu Qingluo was satisfied after eating two pieces. Seeing that she didn't want to eat anymore, Zhou Yuheng quickly finished the rest.

"How long will your vacation be this time?"

"Two months."

Xu Qingluo nodded after hearing this and eliminated the round trip journey.

Then Zhou Yuheng can still stay in Kyoto to spend the New Year with several elders.

"Everything necessary for the house has been bought."

"The furniture and everything else have been made according to your drawings."

Zhou Yuheng told her about the house, and he had already done everything regarding the house.

Now we just wait for Xu Qingluo to come over.

Xu Qingluo listened patiently, and from time to time he was curious about what was happening in the military family compound.

"Syracuse is quite far north, and families rarely go out during the winter."

"There are two or three villages nearby, and the wives of the soldiers would usually go there with their money and exchange it for supplies with the villagers."

"If you're bored, you can also go up the mountain to dig wild vegetables. The supplies you get in the mountains are yours."

This is the benefit provided by the army to the families.

It is already very difficult for family members to come from far away to accompany the troops, so the army is also trying its best to find ways to retain these military wives.

After all, only when the work in the rear is settled can the soldiers at the front do their best to defend the country.

"The mountain behind the army is very safe, but you still need to be careful of insects and ants."

Xu Qingluo nodded, it was best to rely on the mountain for food.

This way, when you take out supplies, you will have a reason.

"The people living next door to us are Captain Zhang and his family."

"Captain Zhang and his wife are easygoing and enthusiastic. They are good neighbors."

Zhou Yuheng picked out the good places and told Xu Qingluo about them.

Xu Qingluo couldn't help laughing as she watched the man talking incessantly in front of her.

This man usually doesn't talk much, but now he is so noisy, it's probably because he is afraid that I suddenly don't want to go.

"I know, I know."

She heard it with both ears.

Xu Qingluo’s determination not to back down was the greatest encouragement to Zhou Yuheng.

He had experienced the pain of missing his wife, and now he really didn't want to live apart from his wife anymore.

The pain of missing someone is too unbearable, especially at night, when thoughts and feelings are infinitely magnified.

Xu Qingluo was lying on the sofa hugging a pillow, with her feet resting on Zhou Yuheng's legs.

Zhou Yuheng held her ankles and then put her feet into his clothes.

Xu Qingluo felt Zhou Yuheng's actions and the corners of her mouth rose slightly.

Neither the husband nor the wife spoke, both enjoying this rare time together.

---

It has been several days since Zhou Yuheng came back.

During the few days he returned to Kyoto, he accompanied Xu Qingluo to visit Grandpa Xu and Grandma Xu, and also visited Uncle Xu's home.

Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu live in the military district’s family compound, and Zhou Yuheng and Xu Qingluo are going to visit them.

Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu left work early and went home to wait.

"Commander Xu, why are you so anxious to leave work today?"

"My niece and her husband are visiting us today, so I have to get some fresh seafood for them to try."

Uncle Xu is the naval commander of the Kyoto Military Region, and Xu Qingluo loves seafood.

When his niece comes home, he will definitely make sure she is well fed and well watered.

Everyone knows that Uncle Xu’s niece married into the Zhou family and is the commander-in-chief’s daughter-in-law.

The little guys all came forward curiously and asked.

"Which niece of yours?"

"What niece could I have?"

Uncle Xu looked at the other person speechlessly. In his family, there was only one girl, Xu Qingluo. Where could he find a second niece?

As soon as Uncle Xu said this, everyone knew that Xu Qingluo and Zhou Yuheng were going to Commander Xu's house for dinner tonight.

I just want to go over and get to know him, mainly Zhou Yuheng.

When Uncle Xu heard everyone's request, he refused without saying a word.

"No, no, we're having a family dinner tonight, no guests!"

Uncle Xu refused with a cold face. He also knew what his subordinates were thinking.

After all, in this position, everyone wants to get closer to the Zhou family.

But his niece is his relative, not a tool for him to get closer to her!

Xu Qingluo married into the Zhou family, so Uncle Xu and Father Zhou were considered half-relatives.

But Uncle Xu never crossed the line by relying on Xu Qingluo's relationship.

He and Zhou's father are old comrades who have been through thick and thin together, but they have always kept their public and private lives separate at work.

Even though the two families are now closer, Uncle Xu has become more careful in what he does.

Uncle Xu refused sternly, and everyone naturally knew better and stopped talking about it.

After all, some things cannot be forced.

When Brigade Commander Fang heard that Xu Qingluo was taking his son-in-law to visit Uncle Xu's home, he felt embarrassed and bitter.

If my son hadn't run away on the way to Hai City, Xu's son-in-law would be my son now.

But what else can he say if his own son doesn't cherish him?

It doesn’t matter if the marriage with the Xu family doesn’t work out.

My son just came home from vacation yesterday, and as soon as he came back he told them that he was bringing his girlfriend home for dinner today.

It's a good thing that their son has a partner, but the person he is marrying is unacceptable to Fang's parents.

He and Fang's mother were angry and helpless, but their son was determined.

They only had this one son, and they didn't want to be alienated from him, so they had no choice but to give in and agree to have dinner.

Everyone in this military family compound knows more or less about the farce that happened when Xu Qingluo and Fang Yusen met.

Today, Fang Yusen and Xu Qingluo both brought their significant others to the family compound.

Everyone felt that it was a bit dramatic.

Moreover, Uncle Xu's family and Captain Fang's family are neighbors. I wonder how embarrassing it would be if the two families ran into each other.

Uncle Xu glanced at Father Fang. It wasn't his Xu family that caused this farce, so it wouldn't be his Xu family that would be embarrassed.

Could it be that he won't let his niece and niece-in-law visit because it would embarrass the Fang family?

Are you kidding me?

Uncle Xu ignored Mr. Fang's embarrassment. After he finished his work, he ran to get seafood from the warship that had returned from the sea today.

Every time a warship returns from the sea, it will salvage seafood, and the families can use money to exchange seafood with the army.
