When the wake-up call sounded, Meng Xiaoman hadn't woken up yet. Xiao Xiangdong said something to her before going to do exercises. She didn't hear anything clearly, but just agreed.
When she woke up and saw the breakfast on the table, she remembered that he should be talking about breakfast.
After freshening up and having breakfast, I heard someone knocking on the door.
Last night, he discussed with Xiao Xiangdong that they would take some local specialties and visit his comrade's home when they had rest tomorrow. Unexpectedly, someone came to see her so early in the morning.
She has a round face, almond-shaped eyes, and short shoulder-length hair. At first glance, she seems to have a better personality. She is Wang Youliang's wife. "You are Xiao Xiangdong's new wife, right? My man and your man are good brothers. I heard that you are also coming to join the army, so I came to see you. My name is Zheng Xiumei, and I am much older than you. You can just call me Sister-in-law Xiumei."
After saying that, she pulled the person standing behind her and introduced her, "This is your sister-in-law Qianjin, or sister-in-law Chunhua, whichever is fine. I met her on the way here just now, so I came over with her to see you."
Xie Chunhua, with a long and thin face, wearing coarse clothes, stood timidly.
When Zheng Xiumei introduced her, she also raised her head very quickly, glanced at it, and then lowered her head again.
Zheng Xiumei also heard about Ma Qian's family occupying a new house, and felt that their family did not do it properly. We are all military relatives, and the men are all friends who have died on the battlefield. Family members like them should live in harmony. In this way, men can rest assured to protect their families and their country.
So, when I met Ma Qianjin's wife on the road, I thought of being a peacemaker and pulled her over.
"Sister-in-law Xiumei, sister-in-law Chunhua, sit inside."
Meng Xiaoman took the person to the main room and brought two glasses of water, "I haven't packed up yet. I'm short of things and don't treat guests well. Don't be surprised."
Zheng Xiumei took the water and said, "Where is it? It has only been two days since you came here, and it is already very good to keep it so open and bright. Right, Mrs. Chunhua."
Chunhua held the water glass nervously, but did not drink it, "Yeah, right.".
Zheng Xiumei saw the message being passed to her, but she didn't answer it. She was very anxious and said, "Well, we are all members of the military. We should unite and help each other. If there is any problem, just talk about it. You don't need to take it to heart in the future, and don't affect it. Friendship."
Seeing that Zheng Xiumei tried her best to make peace, Meng Xiaoman also expressed her position. It was not a matter of beating her to death in the first place. In the final analysis, she could not blame others and she would not hold a grudge for this matter. "Sister-in-law Xiumei is right. Wherever she lives, she can Same, the key is the people inside, as long as we clean up the inside and outside of the house properly so that they can have a home when they come back."
"Isn't that right?" Zheng Xiumei took her hand and said, "After all, he is a cultural person, he just knows how to talk. No wonder Camp Commander Xiao likes her, I like her even just looking at her."
After saying that, he asked Xie Chunhua, who kept his head down and said nothing, "Sister-in-law Chunhua, are you right?"
"That house was decided by my husband and my mother-in-law. I don't understand either, so don't ask me." There was a cry in her words, as if she was being pushed into a hurry.
Meng Xiaoman and Zheng Xiumei didn't dare to say anything more. She turned around and ran out of the house crying. People outside may not have thought why they bullied her.
Zheng Xiumei also regretted that she had done bad things with good intentions. When she went to Ma Qian's house two days ago, she looked very docile. She didn't expect to be like this.
So he quickly glanced at Meng Xiaoman and said, "Xiao Meng, I just want to go to the market to buy something. Are you going?"
Meng Xiaoman understood and said hurriedly: "I'm going to go, I just happen to have a lot of things to buy at home." After saying that, he went back to the inner room to get the money and tickets, and carried another bag. "Sister-in-law Chunhua, are you going?"
Xie Chunhua then put down her cup, stood up, and shook her head, "I have no money. Unlike you, if you have money to buy things, I won't go."
Without saying goodbye to the two of them, he walked out of Meng Xiaoman's house.
After she walked away, Zheng Xiumei said, "Is there something wrong with Ma Qian's wife?" She pointed to her head and said, "We didn't do anything to her, right?"
Meng Xiaoman shook his head, "No, let's try to have as little contact as possible from now on."
"Indeed, I won't meddle in other people's business next time." Zheng Xiumei said.
On the way to the market, he met several sisters-in-law, whom Meng Xiaoman didn't recognize. When Zheng Xiumei greeted them, he just smiled politely.
"They are all family members of the Second Regiment. They are not in the same regiment as ours, and we rarely have contact with them. You just need to recognize their faces."
Meng Xiaoman nodded.
Xiao Xiangdong said before that the environment here is worse than that of Qinghe Brigade. When Meng Xiaoman came here, he felt that it was better than Qinghe Brigade. At least the room had a cement floor and electric lights, although the electricity was limited every day.
"You've caught up. This power line was just put up this summer. Before there was not enough power, it was used by the military camp first. The families' courtyards were all lit by kerosene lamps. When I came here, I had to go down the mountain to fetch water. , it’s much better now, just go to the water house in the family area to pick it up.”
In terms of draft, it is indeed not as convenient as the Qinghe Brigade.
"It would be great if there was running water." Meng Xiaoman said.
"The camp said it was arranged, but I don't know when it will be implemented. Let's do it step by step."
Accompanied by Zheng Xiumei, time passed quickly and we arrived at the market in a short while.
Meng Xiaoman bought some vegetables and a few bags of vegetable seeds. She planned to go back and tidy up her private land to grow vegetables.
Most of the fruits here are tropical fruits, and the prices are very cheap. Meng Xiaoman picked a pound of mangoes, two dragon fruits, and a lot of passion fruits.
Zheng Xiumei was disgusted when she saw her buying passion fruit, "Why are you buying this? There are so many of them on the back hill, but no one wants them. They are full of seeds and are not tasty."
She already had them all in her hand, and Meng Xiaoman couldn't put them down. The little fruit seller looked at her eagerly, fearing that she wouldn't want them anymore. "It's okay. I'll buy some and take it home to try." Meng Xiaoman asked someone to weigh it together and paid for it.
After buying food, Meng Xiaoman bought another bundle of hemp rope. The hemp rope used to dry clothes in the yard had become rotten and he needed to pull out a new one.
Seeing someone selling bamboo woven products, Meng Xiaoman bought several bamboo baskets of different sizes, bamboo radish, and two bamboo baskets and two bamboo baskets.
The old man selling things saw that she bought a lot and knew that the two were family members of the garrison, so he offered to help deliver them to the family area.
When Meng Xiaoman heard about door-to-door delivery, she bought three more bamboo racks for drying things.
Zheng Xiumei had never seen someone so generous with money, and she almost covered his stall.
After Meng Xiaoman finished paying, he pulled her over and whispered: "Xiao Meng, we can't spend money like this even if we have money. Although Camp Commander Xiao has a high allowance, he still has a long life in the future, and there is no place to spend money." There are many. For example, if you want a child or something, you have to be careful with your budget."
"I know, sister-in-law, didn't you just come here? There are a lot of things that need to be purchased. I bought them all at once. It will be convenient for future use."
Zheng Xiumei thought that after she bought these, they were gone. Unexpectedly, after she paid, she turned around and went to the seafood place.
