Mass Update (1/10)

*****

Li Yuegui’s birthday was lively and the neighbors came to watch through the door curiously, knowing that it was the He sisters who started and gave their mother a birthday celebration. The neighbors all praised that Li Yuegui gave birth to two good daughters, which made Li Yuegui\'s face more radiant.

It was not until the afternoon that the two young couples took their children home.

The next morning, when Wei Yuanhang woke up, he asked his mother: "Mom, when shall we go visit Auntie\'s house?"

"Why?" He Xiaoyun continued to dress him, "Didn\'t you just meet your aunt yesterday?"

"I have an appointment with Sister Xiaohua, and I also want to lend her my building blocks to play with."

Xiaohua is the eldest daughter of He Xiaofen.

He Xiaoyun smiled: "Oh, you\'re not stingy with your toys this time? I will take you with me next time I go visit your aunt\'s house."

The child said with a serious face: "This is mom\'s promise."

"I know."

After breakfast, the Wei family members were busy. He Xiaoyun sat at the door while picking soybeans, and watched Wei Yuanhang not to go out of the house. Now, the sun is getting more hot, if she doesn\'t watch that naughty little dumpling, his smooth and delicate white skin might sunburn.

"Excuse me, Is this Wei Jianwei\'s house?"

An unfamiliar voice suddenly came from outside the courtyard. He Xiaoyun looked up and found that it was a man in a military uniform, his age about thirty years old.

"Yes, and you are?" She stood up.

The other party smiled heartily: "I am his comrade-in-arms, my name is Lin Yuefei."

He Xiaoyun was a little wary but hearing his introduction, she asked Wei Yuanhang to call for his father. Wei Jianwei was still in the bamboo forest so He Xiaoyun invited Lin Yuefei into the hall and poured him a bowl of tea.

"Are you old Wei\'s younger sister?" Lin Yuefei asked He Xioyun tentatively.

He Xiaoyun hesitated for a moment and didn\'t know how to answer. Whether it was "I am his wife" or "I am his lover", she was too awkward to say it.

"Mom, Dad is here!" By coincidence, Wei Yuanhang ran in from the back door. Wei Jianwei followed behind him.

Hearing the child\'s call, Lin Yuefei\'s eyes widened in surprise, and his gaze fell on He Xiaoyun again.

He had known that Old Wei was married, but when he was in the army, he never heard Wei Jianwei mention his other half. When someone occasionally made jokes about him, Jianwei never responded. So, they secretly guessed that Jianwei was married to either a tyrant or a tigress.

Who would have thought that Jianwei\'s wife is not only young but also looks so good? Just what kind of blessing did Jianwei have? No wonder he was hiding his wife!

Seeing Wei Jianwei\'s return, He Xiaoyun sighed with relief and exchanged a few polite words with Lin Yuefei before taking Wei Yuanhang away.

She entered the kitchen and hesitated if she should cook for the guests. Wang Chunhua and Feng Qiuyue happened to be away from home, so she have no one with whom she could discuss this.

While she thinking about it, Wei Jianwei walked into the kitchen.

"Why don\'t you entertain your comrade-in-arms?" Isn\'t this too negligent to leave the guest in the hall?

"It doesn\'t matter." Wei Jianwei said while opening a cabinet without knowing what to look for.

He Xiaoyun watched Wei Jianwei turn over things before he finally pulled out a bottle of wine, fill a plate with fried peanuts cooked by Wang Chunhua, and was about to go out.

She hurriedly stopped him, "You\'re just going to serve wine? Did your comrade-in-arms already eat breakfast?"

Seeing her so worried, Wei Jianwei said: "You\'re busy, you don\'t need to worry about him."

Listening to Wei Jianwei\'s tone, his friendship with that comrade-in-arms is very good. The person is willing to come all the way here, he shouldn\'t just feed the guest with fried peanuts, right?

He Xiaoyun was helpless with this man: "You should go out and talk to your guest first. I see what I can cook for now, at the least, I can whip out two snacks."

She took out a few eggs, fried a dish of egg, cut off a piece of bacon, and fry it with the garlic sprouts.

When her cooking was half done, Wang Chunhua came back. She hurried all the way back home when she heard someone that there was a guest at her home. Seeing the dishes in the pot, Wang Chunhua nodded, "The time you cooked in the rice planting, your fried bacon and garlic sprouts was delicious."

He Xiaoyun is embarrassed, "My cooking can\'t be compared to you, mother."

"It\'s not just me who praised it, but also your dad." Wang Chunhua said.

When the dishes are ready, He Xiaoyun took them to the hall.

Wei Jianwei and his comrades drank quietly. Most of the time, they talked in low voices.

Seeing her coming in with the plates, Lin Yuefei said hurriedly, "Sister-in-law, you don\'t need to me some food."

He Xiaoyun smiled, "This is nothing, I\'m just made it casually."

Wei Jianwei got up to take the plates and asked her, "Do you want to sit down with us?"

"I don\'t know how to drink. Should I sit and pretend to be wooden fish with the two of you?" He Xiaoyun joked and said: "You two can eat slowly, call me when you needed something."

Watching her leave, Lin Yuefei gave Wei Jianwei a thumbs up, "Old Wei, you really are blessed!" 

Not only does she look good, but she also treats people decently. She can go to the hall and go to the kitchen to cook. 

Wei Jianwei glanced at him, "Drink your wine."

Lin Yuefei smiled, "Why? You\'re not happy that I look at your wife? I can see your potential as a jealous husband. I really opened my eyes today. No wonder you\'ve been hiding her before, not letting us people know... I won\'t say anything anymore, don\'t look at me that way, it\'s scary."

Lin Yuefei came today, mainly to talk to Wei Jianwei about their departure. The two of them had returned home from the army before, and of course, they would go together.

Lin Yuefei didn\'t stay in the Wei\'s house for too long and left before noon. Wang Chunhua couldn\'t keep him for dinner anymore.

"Xiaolin has bought so many things, it\'s so expensive." Wang Chunhua looked at the gift Lin Yuefei had brought. There were two bottles of wine, two boxes of cigarettes, and a pack of glutinous rice cakes, which cost a lot of money.

She put away the wine and cigarettes and gave the glutinous rice cake to He Xiaoyun, which was reserved for Wei Yuanhang to eat when he was hungry.

"What time did you negotiate with Xiaolin?" Wang Chunhua asked Wei Jianwei.

"The morning after tomorrow." Wei Jianwei said.

"Oh...there\'s only one day left." Wang Chunhua turned around and wiped the tabletop to conceal her red eyes.

Her son has been in the army for two years.

He Xiaoyun stood nearby and Wei Yuanhang was leaning on her. The child seems to feel the emotions of the adults. Although he was greedy with the glutinous rice cake in his mother\'s hand, he was quiet for a while.

After dinner, the housework was done and seeing the sky was still bright, He Xiaoyun took the child out for a walk, together with Wei Jianwei.

The sky turned crimson because of the sunset, and the black silhouettes of egrets flashed in the fields. The seedlings had been planted for nearly a month, they had grown to be lush and sturdy.

Dogs barking can be heard from somewhere, adults were calling the children to go home, frogs were croaking in the paddy fields, the evenings in the countryside are so lively and peaceful.

The child hopped in front of the two of them, stopping from time to time to look at the grass and bugs on the side of the road. In Wei Yuanhang\'s little head, he still didn\'t know what the worry or sorrow of parting was.

"You..." He Xiaoyun cleared her throat, "Do you have to start packing at night?"

Wei Jianwei glanced at her, "It\'s not much, I will pack it tomorrow."

This is true. After he came back home, she only saw two sets of clothes and one drawer of books.

Wei Jianwei happened to think of his books: "Can you keep the books in the drawer for me? Don\'t let Jianhua go through with them."

He Xiaoyun half-joked and said, "I need to be paid for keeping it. Or else, I will take all your books and read them at that time."

"You can go read them," Wei Jianwei curled his mouth, "If the books in the drawer are not enough, I show you the books in my suitcase."

The two people\'s things are separated in the room, and the suitcase belongs to Wei Jianwei.

"Who wants to look at your things?" He Xiaoyun pretended to be disdainful.

Wei Yuanhang pulled a few dogs\' tail grass and ran over, "Mom, I want a puppy."

He Xiaoyun had made one for him before. After that, whenever he sees the dog\'s tail grass, the child will pull a few of it. The few blades of grass he grabbed were both long and short.

Wei Yuanhang looked up for a while, probably feeling tired, opened his arms and said to Wei Jianwei: "Dad, hug."

Wei Jianwei saw that He Xiaoyun had no objection, so he picked him up. The child turned around in his arms, almost putting his head on his mother\'s shoulder, flattering without hesitation, "Mom is so amazing."

"If you tear the puppy again this time, I won\'t make another one for you next time." He Xiaoyun was unmoved by his rainbow fart.

"It was the puppy that broke it..." Wei Yuanhang murmured.

"Yes, the puppy has a hand, and it tore itself into pieces." He Xiaoyun snorted.

The chubby kid didn\'t understand her, but he could hear his mother\'s tone that is not good, so he didn\'t dare continue to quibble. Wei Jianwei didn\'t speak, but he has a smile in his eyes, looking at both of them, mother and son.

He Xiaoyun asked him casually: "How long does it take for you to get to your troops by train?"

"Two days and one night." He said.

She calculated it, two days and one night are more than 30 hours. According to the current speed of the train, it\'s about a thousand kilometers. In her time, transportation is convenient and communication is developed unlike here. 

The puppy was made up quickly, and Wei Yuanhang took it in his hands, planning to cherish it properly, but children\'s love often didn\'t last long. It\'s hard to say whether this puppy can stay overnight safely. Wei Jianwei looked at her and seemed to be ready to put the child down.

He Xiaoyun stopped him: "You hold him. You won\'t be home anymore, he won\'t be able to have that treatment, since I won\'t hold him anymore."

Hearing this, Wei Jianwei raised his eyebrows slightly, "Can\'t bear  to see me go?"

He Xiaoyun cut, "Stop putting gold on your face." (Like, stop putting yourself on a pedestal or don\'t brag? Something like that.)

Even if He Xiaoyun was really reluctant to see him go, she wouldn\'t admit it. Wei Jianwei curled his lips, his expression seemed to be smiling.

"What are you doing?" He Xiaoyun asked, a little baffled, "What do you mean by making this expression?"

"It means to laugh," he said.

"What a laugh. Just laugh, don\'t make that expression."

"No." -WJ

"Yes, you can do it." -HX

"No." -WJ

"Yes." -HX

"No." -WJ

"Yes!" -HX

"Well then, yes." -WJ

He suddenly reversed it unexpectedly, and He Xiaoyun had to swallow her words, she stared at the man dryly. He looked at her, there seemed to be something else in his eyes, "Acknowledge it, there\'s nothing shameful at that." ((。・ω・。) Someone needs to admit she was reluctant to see someone go~)

"What, what do you mean..." (In denial ka pa.)

But Wei jianwei didn\'t explain it: "Guess."

He Xiaoyun thought that the smile at the corner of his mouth look so disgusting, she wants to hit him.
