When Shen Qiu came home from get off work, she saw that her mother-in-law and her family had cooked so many dishes, all of which were her favorites. She smiled so much that her eyes narrowed, "Why did you make so many? I can't finish them all by myself."

"If you can't finish it, we'll still be there. Xiaoqiu, I've invited some of my comrades to come over for dinner. I want to show off tonight. I'm going to be a father."

Jiang Ziqiang looked a little silly when he smiled, and Shen Qiu couldn't bear to watch it, but she was happy in her heart.

The man is so happy that she is pregnant, which proves that he is looking forward to having a child with her.

Comrades came over one after another, all holding things in their hands. Jiang Ziqiang was like a loudspeaker. Not long after he went out, everyone in the military region knew that his wife was pregnant, and they invited them to their home for dinner. No one was embarrassed to come empty-handed.

Shen Qiu asked them to sit down. "You are here, so why are you bringing anything? You are not outsiders."

"Sister-in-law, what we got are all local specialties from our hometown. They are not worth much. Let's try something new."

Everyone put the things they brought on the table. Jiang's mother poured them some sugar water and everyone sat in the yard chatting. They only started eating after all the dishes were ready.

"I've heard from Ziqiang that Auntie is a great cook. Today we're finally having a treat."

"If you like it, eat more. There's more in the pot."

Jiang Ziqiang invited his comrades to come, and he did not neglect his wife at the dinner table. He took good care of her in every way. Shen Shuyu saw this and smiled like an aunt.

Gu Jiandong himself did not neglect his wife, and he always held his son in his arms while eating.

He would only eat after feeding his son. Shen Shuyu took a look at the dishes that were out of her reach and that she wanted to eat, and the next second she would pick the dishes up and put them in her bowl.

Jiang's mother came to live with her son and daughter-in-law for half a month. She had something to do at the army, so she packed her clothes, said goodbye, and went to the station without letting Shen Qiu or Jiang Ziqiang see her off.

After her mother-in-law passed away, Shen Qiu felt that her home was empty. Before she got married, she was always worried that she would not get along with her mother-in-law.

After getting married, I found that my worries were completely unnecessary. My mother-in-law was so nice that she didn't interfere with their fertility and even came to see me when I was pregnant.

"Sister, I'm a little reluctant to see my mother-in-law go."

Shen Shuyu smiled, "When you and Ziqiang are free, go over and take a look. Your parents-in-law will definitely be very happy if you go.

Mid-Autumn Festival is coming in a few days. I will make mooncakes and you can send some to your parents-in-law."

They live nearby, so the mooncakes sent to them won't go bad. But it's not the same for her parents-in-law who live in the northwest. The mooncakes sent to them will go bad.

"Sister, can you make mooncakes?"

"I've read about it in a book and I want to try it." Shen Shuyu had nothing else but plenty of time.

"Then remember to call me. I want to make it with you. The supply and marketing cooperative is giving out mooncakes, and Ziqiang also said that the army will give out mooncakes. We won't have to worry about not having mooncakes. It would be great if grandpa and grandma were here."

They didn't eat much mooncakes. The supply and marketing cooperative sold mooncakes, and my family bought them every year.

But mooncakes are made of fine grains, so my grandparents are reluctant to buy too many. They just buy one or two, and the family shares a small piece to taste, and that's considered eating mooncakes.

Every Mid-Autumn Festival, Shen Qiu is craving mooncakes.

She and her elder sister are both married and have jobs. Their companies and the army give them mooncakes, but they can't finish them all. Their homes are too far away, and they can't eat the mooncakes sent back.

"When we get home, I'll cook for them. They can eat as much as they want."

Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching. Gu Jiandong is thoughtful and knows that Grandma Shen and the others will be reluctant to buy mooncakes. He sent a telegram to Du Changtian early, asking him to buy twenty mooncakes for Grandma Shen.

Jiang Ziqiang is also the grandson-in-law. Since he is not at home during the Mid-Autumn Festival, mooncakes must be bought. He also asked Du Changtian to buy twenty mooncakes.

This adds up to forty mooncakes. Fortunately, the Shen family is large and mooncakes are the best food nowadays, so there is no worry about not being able to finish them.

Du Changtian bought some mooncakes and came to the Shen family the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival to deliver the mooncakes to Old Lady Shen. He left after delivering the mooncakes. Old Lady Shen wanted to invite him to have a meal at her home but failed.
