On the way back to the brigade, the young couple put all the materials needed to build the greenhouse on the tricycle, and also loaded a lot of food, enough for the Tang and Mi families to eat for several days.

As soon as the two men, riding a tricycle, entered the territory of their brigade, they were seen by children playing at the entrance and some old ladies, who gathered around to watch the curiosity.

Their brigade doesn't even have a tractor now, let alone a three-wheeled vehicle like this one, which is 90% new.

There were also a lot of food ingredients and materials needed to build a greenhouse on it, and a few old ladies who loved to take advantage wanted to take them.

Mi Youjiao narrowed her eyes and looked at Third Sister Hu who was trying to grab the egg. She quickly reached out and held it down, saying, "Third Sister Hu, this is for my Fourth Grandma. Brother Zhenjun had a hard time getting it from his comrades. Third Sister Hu, you can't snatch food from an old man lying in bed and unable to move."

Mi Youjiao's fourth grandmother is actually not her biological grandmother. She is an elderly widower in the village. The man and two sons in the family all went to the battlefield and none of them came back. The team was willing to support her, and every household would give her a portion of the delicious food they prepared.

Captain Tang once said that Fourth Grandma’s husband and children all sacrificed themselves for the country, and they could not let these soldiers shed blood and tears. The entire brigade had to help support the soldiers’ families.

Therefore, whenever food was to be given to such elderly people, no one in the team dared to take it. If anyone stole it and was found out, they would be criticized.

Mrs. Hu is only in her 50s. She has several strong sons who are good at working in the fields. Normally, her family has no shortage of food. But she came here to secretly steal food from an old woman. She would be too embarrassed to tell anyone about it.

After hearing what Mi Youjiao said, Third Sister Hu awkwardly withdrew her hand and tried to make amends for herself: "Why didn't you tell me earlier? If I knew you were giving it to Fourth Grandma, why would I take it?"

Mi Youjiao looked at her calmly: "It's not too late for me to say it now, Brother Junbao, let's go."

She doesn't have to be afraid of people like Aunt Hu, but she doesn't want to offend her either. There are many men in Hu's family, and there are also many men in her family. Her third brother is even the captain of the militia!

Tang Zhenjun is a soldier. When people like Hu Sisao approach him, he can't say anything. Sometimes he even takes the initiative to give her his things just because she is an ordinary citizen.

Now that his wife has stepped up for him, he feels less worried. He just smiled and rode away on his tricycle.

From afar, they saw his biological mother rushing over here after receiving the news that they had returned, shouting, "Do you have any shame, Hu? You have so many sons in your family, and you are fighting for food with an old widower." When she finished speaking, she arrived, with a spatula in her hand, staring at Hu Sisao with a pair of eyes bigger than a cow's.

The eldest brother of the Tang family and the third brother Mi also followed over and looked at her unhappily.

Seeing this, Mrs. Hu's momentum weakened even more. Although she had many sons, compared with the men of these two families, they were not only a little bit inferior, but also had no comparison in fighting power. Her sons could only be beaten under the armed oppression of these two men.

She stammered, "I, I don't have time to talk to you here. I also have to go home to cook dinner." Then she turned around and ran away.

The other aunts who wanted to steal things had already fled away.

Mi Youjiao looked at their backs and curled her lips in disdain, "Humph, they are all bullies who only care about the weak and fear the strong."

Brother Mi San stepped forward, touched his sister and smiled: "This is the team."

Mi Youjiao grinned and nodded with a smile: "Brother, Junbao and I went to the town to get materials for the greenhouse and some food. Junbao's comrades helped us get them. You can take some back to our house."

Mi San Ge glanced at his younger sister's mother-in-law and said, "Take them all. We have food at home. We don't need your help. With our brothers, we don't have to worry about our parents starving."

His sister had just married into the Tang family, but she started to steal things from their own home. Her mother-in-law was still around, and as her brother, he had to protect his sister's face. He couldn't let the Tang family think that his sister was untameable and kept stealing things from her parents' home.

Tang's mother interrupted, "Just do as the second son's wife said and take half back. We are all family, so don't say two different things. Now is a difficult period and we should help each other. If our daughter's family is in trouble after getting married, we should also help them. Captain Mi often helps us. Zhenjun, send the things to your Yue family first."

Tang Zhenjun: "Okay, Third Brother, Big Brother, come on up, there's still room in the car."

Mi Youjiao patted the man on the back, turned to the third brother and said, "Third brother, don't get on. Brother Junbao has ridden all the way. It's such a short distance, you should just walk back."

Brother Mi San stared. His sister had completely become a member of the Tang family. All his love for her was in vain.

Brother Tang looked at him with amusement. As a big brother, he felt embarrassed to sit in the car after being talked about, so he just followed the car.

After hearing what Mi Youjiao said, Tang's mother smiled with satisfaction. This daughter-in-law knew how to protect her son. Very good, her love for this daughter-in-law was not in vain.
