Before getting into the car, Song Zhaodi saw that Zhong Dawa was a temperamental little guy, and she was mentally prepared, so she didn't get angry, and said with a smile: "I know you only have one mother, and I don't I tell you to call my mother, call my mother."
"Mother?" The child wondered.
Song Zhaodi bent down and touched the child's face: "Yes, good son."
"You, you are a bad woman." The little guy pulled up his pants and pointed at Song Zhaodi, "I know, my mother is also a mother, you lied to me, I want to tell my father." He ran away.
Song Zhaodi followed up without hesitation, and when she got there, she heard the child complaining to Zhong Jianguo.
"If you don't call your mother or your mother, then you should call your stepmother." Song Zhaodi said with a smile, "I don't care, as long as your father doesn't mind."
Stepmother? Song Zhaodi was not too embarrassed, but Zhong Jianguo, head of Zhong Zhong, wanted to be embarrassed: "Dad, how did I tell you before? If you are not obedient, I will send you to grandma's house."
The child turned back and glared at Song Zhaodi: "Bad woman." Turning to Zhong Jianguo, "You take me to grandma's house, I will, I will run away."
"Look at what you can do." Zhong Jianguo was still feeding his younger son biscuits, "Is it taught by your cousin again? If you don't study well, follow her to learn some crooked ways all day long. Zhao Di , don't be angry, I'll talk to him back."
Song Zhaodi waved her hand and looked like an adult: "He's still young and he just lost his mother, I understand, I don't care about him."
The child felt uncomfortable listening to Song Zhaodi not forcing him, and looked back at Song Zhaodi: "Bad woman."
"Pfft!" Song Zhaodi is happy, this child will be a curse word?
Zhong Dawa suddenly turned her head: "What are you laughing at?"
"She thought of something happy." Seeing that Song Zhaodi was really not angry, Zhong Jianguo had some good feelings for Song Zhaodi, but he was afraid that the ignorant eldest son would really make Song Zhaodi angry, so he asked, "Damn Baby, are you hungry?"
Sister-in-law Zhong's family had dinner after six o'clock. It was almost twelve o'clock now, and Dawa Zhong touched her belly: "Hungry, Dad."
"Wait a minute." Zhong Jianguo fed the younger son, changed his diaper, and handed it to Song Zhaodi, before feeding the eldest son and the second son something to eat.
Song Zhaodi was surprised to find that Zhong Jianguo was skilled in feeding the eldest and the second. She always thought that Zhong Jianguo could not do housework or take care of children. Later, seeing Zhong Jianguo wiping his two sons' mouths with his hands naturally, he couldn't help but slandered that Zhong Jianguo's former wife was an unlucky woman.
The man who was chatting with Song Zhaodi before watched Zhong Jianguo carrying the second baby to pee, and couldn't help but say, "Your husband is good."
"I found it too." Song Zhaodi glanced at the child beside her, "Are you still sleeping? I'll carry you up."
Zhong Dawa snorted, turned to face the seat, and gave her the back of her head.
Song Zhaodi couldn't help teasing him when she saw him like this: "Dad, I hate me so much, I will cook in the future, do you want to eat?"
"I, I don't talk to bad women." Zhong Dawa has a strong backbone and continues to lie on the chair without giving Song Zhaodi a face.
Song Zhaodi: "Who do you not talk to?"
"Bad woman." The child blurted out.
Song Zhaodi asked again: "Who is the bad woman?"
"It's you."
Song Zhaodi: "Then who are you talking to now?"
"You—" Zhong Dawa turned around, "You, you bad woman, don't talk anymore."
Song Zhaodi nodded again and again: "Okay, okay, I will listen to Dawa's words and stop talking from now on."
"Humph!" The child seemed to be winning, "You listen to me, and I won't call your mother."
Song Zhaodi thought to herself, I am not in a hurry, one day you will cry and call my mother: "I didn't tell you to call my mother. Does the big baby want to call my mother? , I'm afraid of forgetting your mother, so I always remind myself not to call my mother?"
A bunch of Zhong Dawa was fascinated by what her mother said, and she simply said, "Don't talk about it, I'm sleepy." Climbed onto the chair and got into the cotton coat.
The man opposite looked at Song Zhaodi with a smile on his face, and asked in a low voice, "Your husband doesn't know your true face, right?"
"I didn't hear what you said." Song Zhaodi said.
The man was speechless, afraid that Zhong Dawa would hear it, and said in the smallest voice: "Are you going to keep pretending?"
"I'm not sick." Song Zhaodi rolled his eyes at him, teasing the child in her arms, and looked in the direction of the toilet, was there no one? Can't help frowning: "Why did he go for so long? Wait, won't you forget to bring paper?"
Man: "It's possible. Don't look for it, I have it here."
"Please help me watch the baby." Song Zhaodi took the paper and ran to the toilet with the third child in her arms.
On October 11th, at seven in the morning, Song Zhaodi got off the train, looked at the rising sun, and took a deep breath: "Mother, I'm finally alive."
"Go first and take a break." Zhong Jianguo said, "You have something to eat, let's go to the pier."
Thirty hours of train, Song Zhaodi seemed to have walked through the gate of hell, and a few children were not feeling well. When he got off the bus, Zhong Jianguo was carrying two bags, carrying the second child in a basket, and asked Song Zhaodi to carry the third child and lead the elder.
Song Zhaodi cheered up and picked up the boss, the grumpy little guy glanced at her lightly, and let Song Zhaodi hold him. During this period, Song Zhaodi accidentally bumped into the door while holding him, and the child didn't even lift his eyelids.
Song Zhaodi has no feelings for the three children. Seeing the little lion turned into a little quail, she couldn't help but feel distressed: "How do you go to the pier later?"
"There is a bus." Zhong Jianguo said, "The boat leaves at ten o'clock. There are few people going to the south, and tickets can be bought at any time."
Song Zhaodi: "There is still plenty of time. By the way, can your non-staple food book be used here?"
"My non-staple food book is sent here. The main force was only transferred at the end of last year, and the non-staple food book has not had time to change." Zhong Jianguo said, "In that bag, the money is also there. Inside. Are you going now?"
Song Zhaodi said while rummaging: "Yes. I will go by myself, don't worry, I will ask others if I don't know the way. Don't forget, I have a high school diploma and I can read." She took out the non-staple food book , opened it, and was stunned, "Why do you still have so much money?"
"The salary of these few months is not very useful." Zhong Jianguo said.
Song Zhaodi gave her 200 yuan. It cost 50 to 60 yuan to buy cloth and clothes that day, and there were still 200 to 300 yuan in the non-staple food book. How many months? If she remembered correctly, Zhong Jianguo's wife had only been dead for more than three months. His wife had a funeral and had to raise three children. She didn't want to save so much money in seven or eight months.
Song Zhaodi glanced at him and saw that Zhong Jianguo was feeding his second child with water. He didn't intend to explain.
"Don't be in a hurry." Zhong Jianguo said, "You can go to the wharf in time at nine o'clock."
Zhong Dawa looked at Song Zhaodi's back: "Dad, will she run away?"
"Her clothes and graduation certificate are in the bag next to you." Zhong Jianguo said, "She won't run, but worried that we won't wait for her. Big baby, you are a good stepmother. , I can no longer be temperamental when I arrive on the island, and I have to help my stepmother take care of the two younger brothers."
Zhong Erwa pushed open the porcelain jar: "Dad, I'm obedient."
"Er baby is good." Zhong Jianguo smiled, "Da baby, did you hear me?"
Zhong Dawa said "um": "I will be good if she is good."
A little after eight o'clock, Song Zhaodi came back with a large bag.
Zhong Jianguo was surprised: "Why so fast?"
"I went there by car." Song Zhaodi can speak fluent Shencheng dialect, and when she goes out, she asks locals to inquire about supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores. Seeing her disheveled and dusty appearance, the citizens of Shencheng mistakenly thought that she was in a hurry. Some kind people even sent her to the stop sign, "Can I wash my face at the station? I want to wash my face."
Zhong Jianguo: "I don't know, we'll be there in the afternoon, please bear with it." Looking at the cloth bag in her hand, "What's inside?"
"There is everything." Song Zhaodi said, "I bought you some steamed buns at the state-run restaurant. I ate two on the way here, and you also have some."
Zhong Jianguo was curious: "How did you buy it?"
"That state-run hotel charges money, but doesn't ask for tickets." Relying on her ability to speak Shencheng, Song Zhaodi squeezed onto the bus and chatted with a group of older locals. I have figured out which steamed buns are delicious. "Is there still water in the porcelain jar? I'll go to the comrade at the station to pour some water."
Zhong Jianguo handed her the porcelain jar: "Give me something."
Song Zhaodi handed him the cloth bag, and the second child broke Zhong Jianguo's hand: "Dad, let me take a look."
"Don't worry." Zhong Jianguo was very curious when he saw his eldest son, but because Song Zhaodi held back, "Your stepmother is gone."
Zhong Dawa ran to Zhong Jianguo with a swish, hooked her head, and said in surprise, "Big White Rabbit Toffee? Lots and lots, all of them are Big White Rabbit Toffee."
Zhong Jianguo was also quite surprised. He opened it and saw that there was vanishing cream, toothbrushes, toothpaste, clam oil, cooling oil and paper, and the rest were all food for children.
Zhong Dawa and Zhong Erwa only saw the big white rabbit, Zhong Jianguo noticed the milk powder and malted milk essence, and couldn't help but glanced in the direction where Song Zhaodi disappeared, she actually only bought herself a box of vanishing cream and a toothbrush?
"Is the stepmother okay?" Zhong Jianguo peeled off a big white rabbit and stuffed it into his eldest son's mouth.
The child pursed his lips, didn't want to admit and was embarrassed to deny it, turned to the other side and grabbed the hand of Sanwa, who was sleeping loudly: "Brother, wake up, I'll give you candy."
Zhong Jianguo shook his head and laughed.
Song Zhaodi trotted back with water, and saw Zhong Jianguo squinting, she was very curious: "Why are you laughing?"
"I'm glad to be home soon." Zhong Jianguo said.
Song Zhaodi didn't believe it, so she deliberately said, "I remember that Dawa's grandmother is in Shencheng. Shall we visit her house?"
"Don't!" Before Zhong Jianguo could speak, Zhong Dawa said first, "Dad, I won't go to my grandma's house, and neither are you."
Song Zhaodi frowned, it seemed that Zhong Jianguo was hiding a lot of things from her.
"It's too late, so I won't go this time." Zhong Jianguo said, "Pack up, let's go."
Song Zhaodi thought to herself, it will be a long time in Japan, and I can figure it out even if you don’t say it. So, he took the initiative to carry Sanwa on his back, and reached out to Zhong Dawa, "I'm holding you?"
Zhong Dawa gave Zhong Jianguo a subconscious look. Zhong Jianguo handed him a big white rabbit toffee, and the child pursed his lips and handed it to Song Zhaodi.
Song Zhaodi was speechless and wanted to laugh. However, seeing that the child no longer rejects her, nor does she tease the big baby.
Around three in the afternoon, the family went to Wengzhou Island.
The main force of the East China Sea Fleet was moved to Wengzhou Island, causing division commanders and regimental commanders to travel everywhere on the small Wengzhou Island. He is alone.
Zhong Jianguo is a college student and can be said to be the most learned man among the young officers. He acted in a low-key manner and could not hold a high profile, so that in addition to the whole army and soldiers who knew him, the fishermen on the island had also heard of his name.
Song Zhaodi said Zhong Jianguo, which way to go. Zhong Jianguo was recognized by passers-by.
A moment later, a military jeep appeared beside Zhong Jianguo, and before the window opened, he shouted, "Captain Zhong, where are you going?"
Zhong Jianguo stopped: "Go home."
"I'll send you for a while." As he spoke, he looked to the other side of Zhong Jianguo, and saw that the woman beside him was black and thin, wearing very ill-fitting green clothes. With a tut, "that's the new sister-in-law?"
Zhong Jianguo nodded: "She is Song Zhaodi, you can just call her Xiao Song."
Men are of the highest quality, and the names of people and places are also earthly, and the head of Zhong Da, who was born in the working class, has today? Alas, God is indeed the most fair: "How can I call Xiao Song, sister-in-law, slow down."
"Thank you." Song Zhaodi inadvertently caught a glimpse of the disgust in the man's eyes, and was quite speechless. Is there such a person in the revolutionary ranks? I was curious, "Jian Guo, who is this?"
Zhong Jianguo: "The captain of a certain ship, Ma Zhonghua. Xiaoma, what is this for?"
"Go back to the team." Ma Zhonghua looked back at Song Zhaodi, really dark, "Where is my sister-in-law from?"
Song Zhaodi: "I'm also from Binhai. My aunt is the stepmother of Captain Zhong. According to my seniority, I am the cousin of Captain Zhong."
"Cousin?" Ma Zhonghua didn't expect it, "I haven't heard it mentioned by President Zhong before."
Song Zhaodi: "I'm eight years younger than him, he went to college, I'm still in elementary school, the age difference is too much, I haven't moved."
"Sister-in-law went to school?" Ma Zhonghua was quite surprised.
Seeing that Zhong Jianguo did not stop her, Song Zhaodi continued: "After two years of study, I have a rough understanding of the language."
Ma Zhonghua's hand shook, Zhong Jianguo hurriedly hugged the big baby sitting between him and Song Zhaodi.
Those who have been in school for two years can't say the word "vulgar language and ink", Ma Zhonghua couldn't help but envy Zhong Jianguo, what luck? Not only a cousin, but also a learned master: "Sister-in-law is modest."
"General." Song Zhaodi was too lazy to pay attention to him, and continued to be modest, "I will also write my own name."
Ma Zhonghua choked for a while, and wanted to speak again, but Zhong Jianguo seriously stopped the car and drove back.
Wengzhou Island is not big. Although the military family home is far away from the dock, it takes less than a cigarette to drive. Zhong Jianguo got out of the car and said thank you to Ma Zhonghua, then looked for the keys.
Song Zhaodi looked at the two-story building in front of her and said in surprise, "It's actually a building?"
Come.
Song Zhaodi believed that he did not lie to herself this time, "Are you going to the army?"
"Someone will notify me if I have something to do." Zhong Jianguo said, "Can I help you clean up?"
Song Zhaodi nodded, went to the second floor with the third child on her back and asked, "How many rooms are upstairs?"
"Four rooms, three of which can accommodate people. The one with the windows facing south is my room, the right side is for Dawa and Erwa, and the left is the guest room." Zhong Jianguo Road, " Big brother and sister-in-law live on the left when they come here occasionally."
Song Zhaodi pushed open the door of the master bedroom, looked up and saw the photo on the head of the bed, the man in the photo was the young version of Zhong Jianguo, and the woman in the photo was white and fair, with a melon-shaped face and thin eyebrows long and looks weak. However, she gave birth to three healthy sons. Based on this, Song Zhaodi knew that she was very strong: "I'll live on the left side."
Zhong Jianguo froze for a moment, thinking he didn't hear clearly: "What did you say?"
"I live in a guest room." Song Zhaodi repeated.
