Huh, Lu Chuyao opened the newly-decorated curtains and raised his fair, poreless face to welcome the first ray of sunshine in the morning.Viewed from this perspective, the outline of the rising sun is as big as a flying saucer, as bright red as the molten iron melted in a high-temperature furnace, and the jet of light covers the distant iron ridges, mountains, and continuous house roofs.

It was a bit dazzling after looking at it for a long time, so she calmed down slightly and closed her eyes.When the halo sparks dissipated, the sound of women shouting and cursing loudly could be heard downstairs, as well as the harsh sounds of ping-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pang-pong-spatulas colliding with aluminum pots.Lu Chuyao looked down suspiciously, only to see a military pickup truck parked in the middle of the compound, with two large bags of luggage on it.

Could it be that a neighbor is here?

Thinking of the new neighbor that Song Mingze summarized in a few words last night, Lu Chuyao couldn't help but have a headache.She is most afraid of trouble and hates wrangling.

Song Zhiyu was lying in the crib, calling "Mom, Mom" ​​through the surrounding railings.He woke up for a while and saw his mother standing by the window against the light and ignoring him for a long time. He was so hungry that he finally couldn't help but speak.

Lu Chuyao turned his head in surprise and hurriedly picked up his son. This time Song Zhiyu was very strong and called her mother one after another.

"It's a pity that there is no phone at home, otherwise if your father listens to it, you will call mom!" She was really happy, and her son started to learn to speak. "My dear, when daddy comes home, you have to call him daddy too. Dad works hard every day and has to go to work every day to earn money for us. Let's return the favor and call him daddy a few more times."

I don’t know if Song Zhiyu understood it, but anyway, he opened his milky mouth and bit his mother’s face with a squeal, causing Lu Chuyao to exclaim, “You brat, how can you be as virtuous as your father!” They all love to bite so much...

Make the milk powder for the brat and feed him to drink it.She was just about to get up and go to the kitchen to cook some thin noodles for herself when someone knocked on the door, "...who?"

No one responded, but the banging on the door continued. The rough slapping sound made Lu Chuyao frown in displeasure. She secretly muttered to herself who was so incompetent, and opened the entrance door hesitantly.

Standing outside the door was an old woman with white hair and a slight skinny appearance. The corners of her dry mouth opened and closed, and she spoke a dialect with a thick accent. It took Lu Chuyao a long time to understand clearly that she was here to borrow money. Salt shaker.

"Auntie, please wait a moment. I'll go in and get it for you." Lu Chuyao was cautious and didn't lend the whole bottle out. She made a portion and poured it into a small cup, and then filled the two cups separately for consumption. The small porcelain cup of oil and cooking salt was handed to the old woman.

The old lady took it unceremoniously, a trace of disgust flashed through her sullen triangular eyes, and she muttered as if to say, "How come this little bit is not enough to cook for a few days? City women are so stingy~"

Lu Chuyao looked up in anger.

The door opposite made jingling noises from time to time, which made Lu Chuyao unable to concentrate on her work. Only one sleeve came out of her baby son's top... "Hey~", she irritably crumpled the remaining fabric into a ball and stuffed it. Enter the wooden frame.

The little Zaizai standing in the walker has very pointed ears. He doesn't mind the noise. The louder the sound from the opposite door, the faster his two short legs jump.He grabbed the walker with his little hands and ran to the door, shouting "Ah, ah, ah", as if he was communicating with the noise on the other side.

Lu Chuyao sat elegantly on the sofa and ate fruit, observing the little guy's every move with great interest. Seeing his ears raised high, he couldn't help but sneer, "Why are you more nosy than me?"

Song Mingze didn't come back at noon. The army was busy during this period. When he went out in the morning, he hurriedly reported to her and asked her not to leave any food.When her husband didn't come home, she didn't bother to cook it herself, so she just fried two pancakes and ate them.In the afternoon, mother and son woke up from a nap, both in a daze. She sighed, these days were so decadent and boring!

In order to stretch his muscles, Lu Chuyao planned to take the little guy for a walk downstairs.There is a large area around the family courtyard. Although there is not much greenery, the paths are flat and there are seats for people to rest.Most of the young wives who accompanied the army had no jobs. After cleaning the housework every day, they would come out to chat with someone.

It was rare for them to see Captain Song's wife come out today, so they all waved to her to sit over and chat together.

Among them, the sister-in-law with bangs and round face was the most lively. She moved her chubby body to make a space, "Xiao Lu, sit here."

Lu Chuyao couldn't be disappointed by the warm invitation. After sitting down, he put Zaizai on his knees, then nodded and smiled at the military wives on the left and right.

"I heard Sister-in-law Peng talking about you. Your name is Lu Chuyao, right? Is it better for me to call you Xiaolu or Xiaoyao?" Sister-in-law Qi Liuhai stared at her picture in amazement, which many women would envy. Delicate face.

Lu Chuyao was a little unaccustomed to the loud looks from others, and said with a slightly embarrassed look, "It's okay, you can call me whatever is convenient."

"You don't know me yet. My husband is Li Datong, the commander of the fifth company. My name is Yuan Lijuan. I am 22 years old. The sisters-in-law here who are older than me call me Juanzi. What about you?" Yuan Lijuan is lively and cheerful, with a small mouth. After introducing himself like a machine gun, he also told her the names of several members of his family and even his mother-in-law.

Lu Chuyao laughed dryly, cleared his throat and said, "I have just turned twenty this year, and I am two years younger than you, sister-in-law."

At this time, another sister-in-law with natural European-style large double eyelids came closer and joined the group chat, "Twenty! So young." Seeing Lu Chuyao looking over, she raised the fine lines at the corners of her eyes and imitated Yuan Lijuan's introduction of herself, "I My name is Jiang Duofen, the daughter-in-law of Chen Liguo, the commander of the Sixth Company, oh, by the way, I am 28 years old this year."

Dove? dove?

Lu Chuyao couldn't help laughing.

Yuan Lijuan is a small-time psychic in the courtyard and likes to inquire about news from various families. She lowered her voice and pretended to be mysterious: "Sister Daofen, in terms of youth, Xiao Yao is not as good as the one who moved in this morning." She raised her eyebrows. The fingers stretched upward.

"You mean Li Jianbin's child bride?" Apparently, Jiang Duofen also heard her man mention the matter of Li Jianbin's family.

"Yes, yes, they moved here early in the morning, and they happened to meet me. I asked her, and she said she just turned seventeen last month, tsk tsk."

Jiang Duofen leaned across Lu Chuyao, who was holding the child in the middle, and asked curiously: "What are you tutting at?"

Someone agreed, and the gossip became more exciting. Yuan Lijuan gave Mrs. Dofen a satisfied look and said softly: "What I'm complaining about is that this little daughter-in-law has an ordinary appearance and a boring temperament. Plus, she has a powerful mother-in-law. Keep it tight, I'm afraid life won't be easy."

"Li Jianbin's mother is indeed a powerful character." Jiang Duofen curled her lips and told them what happened when Li Jianbin borrowed money from her man and sent it to his mother, and it took more than half a year to pay it back.

Lu Chuyao felt the same way, and her two small cups of oil and salt were probably gone forever.

But she didn't have the habit of talking behind other people's backs, she just complained silently in her heart.Her ears were filled with the chattering voices of the two sisters-in-law. They talked to her about trivial matters.It didn't take long for her to understand the personnel backgrounds upstairs and downstairs, and the key points of each company.
