Military husband hasn't returned home for two years? He reads his daughter's heartfelt wor
Chapter 25's reminder came too late.
When Xiao Wu brought lunch, several soldiers followed behind him.
They were all very excited to see Cheng Baichuan; the sentimental person's eyes even welled up with tears.
Li Wanqing took the children to another room for dinner, leaving the space to them.
When the group had finished chatting, Li Wanqing was playing with her child in the yard.
A group of soldiers, roughly the same age as her, saluted her in perfect unison.
"Hello, sister-in-law!"
"Hello everyone!" Li Wanqing greeted them calmly on the surface, but she was a little excited inside.
After experiencing this way of greeting several times, she gradually got used to it.
It even felt somewhat familiar!
Nuonuo nestled close to her mother, her round eyes curiously observing the person in front of her.
Her cute and shy appearance instantly captured the hearts of a group of tough guys.
Everyone wanted to tease the child, but they were also afraid of scaring him.
Only Xiao Wu, who had become familiar with Nuonuo, won the little girl's favor, making everyone else look at him with envy, jealousy, and hatred.
Not long after he arrived, Cheng Baichuan's old comrade-in-arms came over.
Upon seeing the little girl, even the loud-voiced men lowered their voices to speak.
"Old Cheng! You're a lucky guy!" Shao Wenzhao looked at Nuonuo with extreme envy.
He already has three sons, and he dreams of having a daughter.
A few years ago, Lao Liang had a daughter, and he was envious.
Unexpectedly, Lao Cheng, who had been in a coma for almost two years, also had a daughter without anyone noticing.
And this daughter is beautiful!
Shao Wenzhao nudged Cheng Baichuan's shoulder and whispered, "Old Cheng, we're so close now, how about your daughter be my daughter-in-law?"
"Choose any of the three boys you want!"
Cheng Baichuan rolled his eyes at him. "If you dare say that again, you're not allowed to see my daughter anymore."
He had only just recognized his daughter and hadn't even had enough of kissing her yet!
So they've come to snatch him away?
Shao Wenzhao smiled shamelessly and dared not say anything more.
But he had already made up his mind to have his wife bring their sons over to visit often.
Whoever can win the heart of the beauty, whoever has the ability!
"When is Lao Liang coming back?" Cheng Baichuan asked.
They were all comrades-in-arms who had fought side by side for many years. They heard that Lao Liang had been on a mission for more than half a month.
"I'm not sure, but it should be soon." Shao Wenzhao's expression turned serious. "After all, his wife is due to give birth next month."
If he can't get back in time, Lao Liang is in for a lot of trouble.
Old Liang's wife is a pampered young lady from the city, and she will make a fuss if things don't go her way.
These past two days, Lao Liang's mother came from the countryside to take care of his wife, and the sounds of things being smashed and arguments can be heard every day in the family compound.
"Old Liang is the same. He insisted on choosing a capitalist's daughter back then, and now not only is he not getting a promotion, but his family is also a mess," Shao Wenzhao sighed.
Cheng Baichuan frowned slightly. "I remember Xiao Feng wasn't like this before?"
Shao Wenzhao sighed, "Who knows? He's like a completely different person in the last six months."
Shao Wenzhao glanced at Li Wanqing, then leaned close to Cheng Baichuan's ear and whispered, "I suspect it's related to that Qin Qianqian."
Although he thought Qin Qianqian was quite popular and wouldn't do anything to sow discord between couples.
But no matter when or how long it didn't change, Feng Weiwei gradually changed from the moment the two of them met.
It's hard for him not to overthink it!
Cheng Baichuan raised an eyebrow. How come this person is everywhere?
Shao Wenzhao kindly reminded her, "You should remind your sister-in-law to stay away from that person in the future."
Cheng Baichuan: ...Too late to warn you, the person has already been seen!
However, given the circumstances at the time, the two shouldn't have had much interaction.
Everyone knew that Cheng Baichuan had just returned and had a lot of things to do, so they left after chatting for a few minutes.
Li Wanqing handed the child over to Cheng Baichuan, took the shopping list, and followed Xiao Wu to the military service station.
The military service station is not far from the family quarters, about a 20-minute walk away.
The layout inside is similar to that of a supply and marketing cooperative in a typical town, except that it is specifically for military personnel and their families to purchase supplies.
Li Wanqing glanced around and found that the items inside were quite complete, comparable to those in supply and marketing cooperatives in big cities, but at more affordable prices.
When Li Wanqing and Xiao Wu arrived, the service station had just opened, and the sales clerks inside were acquaintances of Xiao Wu.
"Xiao Zhao, this is Battalion Commander Cheng's sister-in-law," Xiao Wu introduced, blushing.
Li Wanqing: ...She seemed to smell the melon.
This saleswoman, Xiao Zhao, is pretty and has a straightforward and efficient demeanor.
With Xiao Wu...
She always felt that this silly boy was only enthusiastic about barbering.
Xiao Zhao was slightly surprised, then smiled and said, "Hello, sister-in-law. Did you just move to the family quarters?"
Li Wanqing nodded, "Yes, as soon as I entered, I found that a lot of things were missing, so I quickly asked Xiao Wu to bring me over."
Xiao Zhao immediately adopted the enthusiasm of a salesperson, saying, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, our service station has everything."
"The food, clothing, and daily necessities are no worse than in the city. As long as it's not a particularly large item, you can buy it immediately."
"Xiao Zhao, I have a list here." Li Wanqing took out the list. "Could you help me check if everything is available?"
When Xiao Zhao took the list and looked at it, he finally understood that Li Wanqing's statement that "a lot of things are missing" was not an exaggeration at all.
"Sister-in-law, wait here while I go check."
"Thank you then." Li Wanqing didn't intend to be polite, after all, there were indeed too many things, and Xiao Zhao was much more familiar with them than she was.
While we were waiting, quite a few people came in to buy things.
Because of Xiao Wu, Li Wanqing also got to know several military wives.
They were almost all family members of Cheng Baichuan's old comrades-in-arms, so they were very enthusiastic towards Li Wanqing.
Xiao Zhao worked quickly, and in less than half an hour, he had found most of the items on Li Wanqing's list.
"Sister-in-law, there are a few things that the service station doesn't have in stock. I'll save them for you when they arrive."
"Xiao Zhao, I really owe you a lot. If it weren't for you, I would have been in a real bind with all these things." Li Wanqing checked the list and found that the missing items were not urgent, except for the quilt.
"Xiao Zhao, how long will it take to get this quilt?"
Without blankets, the family of three couldn't sleep well.
Xiao Zhao explained, "The quilt is made to order; the service station usually doesn't keep stock. You can wait until cotton comes into season, buy some cotton, and then have it made by the cotton fluffer next door."
"If you need it urgently, it will be available the next day."
Li Wanqing: ...That was too hasty!
"Does the service station still have cotton?" Li Wanqing asked.
Xiao Zhao shook his head. "Cotton is a scarce commodity. It's usually snapped up as soon as it hits the market. The first batch this year was gone half a month ago, and the second batch should be here in the next day or two."
Li Wanqing was anxious, but there was nothing she could do. She could only ask Xiao Zhao to reserve 30 jin for her when the cotton arrived.
October is almost here, and it will gradually get colder in the mountains. It's time to prepare clothes for autumn and winter.
Not far from the service station, Li Wanqing heard a familiar voice.
Following the sound, I saw Aunt Li standing anxiously in front of the pork stall, clutching money in her hand.
