Zuo Jingyan smiled and teased Qin Feng: "Qin Feng, the peach blossoms are blooming!"

Since morning, she no longer calls her Brother Qin. It's not easy to say this title.

Qin Feng is the godmother's nephew. According to the godmother, she should call him third brother, because Qin Feng has two cousins, and he is the third oldest in the family.

But Qin Feng also called her sister-in-law from Lu Haoting. In the past, it was all nonsense. He called her sister-in-law, and she called Qin Feng brother Qin. It was a mess.

So in the morning she decided to call him by his name from now on.

Qin Feng said awkwardly: "Sister-in-law, please stop laughing at me, who wants this rotten peach blossom?"

Lu Xiaoyu also said:

"Does someone like Liang Xiumei deserve to be called a peach blossom? I think she's a dog-tailed flower. No, calling her a dog-tailed flower is an insult. She doesn't deserve it."

The little girl's face turned red with anger, much to Zuo Jingyan's amusement:

"As long as you help me, Brother Qin, I won't suffer any loss."

Lu Xiaoyu raised her chin proudly:

"That's right, I won't let her bully Brother Qin!"

Zuo Jingyan was amused by her sister-in-law, raised the bag in her hand and said:

"Okay, in order to commend you for your heroic deeds in saving Qin Feng, my sister-in-law will make dumplings for you when you get home."

"Really, great."

Xiaoyu's eyes lit up when she heard this. The dumplings made by her sister-in-law were the most delicious.

When Qin Feng heard that Zuo Jingyan wanted to make dumplings, he quickly pointed at himself and said:

"Sister-in-law, there is still me, the victim!"

"It's your part too, I'll give you some relief."

Zuo Jingyan smiled, knowing that he would definitely come to pick up Xiaoyu and had already taken care of him.

"Sister-in-law, there are mom and second brother's too!"

Xiaoyu didn't leave anyone behind. He thought of it. If the meat is not enough, buy more vegetables and eat dumplings with the whole family. Even if there is less meat, the dumplings will still be delicious.

The smile on Zuo Jingyan's face disappeared, and so did the smile on Qin Feng's face. The air suddenly became silent and a bit heavy.

Xiaoyu looked at them uneasily:

"......What's wrong?"

Zuo Jingyan calmed down her emotions. There was no need for Xiaoyu to worry too, so she smiled and said:

"Mom has returned to the countryside, and your second brother is going to the military academy to study. There are only two of us at home."

"Ah? Why is mom gone? I didn't even see her off."

Xiaoyu was sad. Her mother came all the way to take her to school, but she didn't even take her back. She didn't know how to read. Could she have lost her seat on the train?

"You send mom back, and then mom sends you back, just in time for Shiba Xiang to see you off!"

Zuo Jingyan teased her with a smile. Qin Feng opened the car door and glanced at Xiaoyu:

"Don't worry, your second brother asked his comrades at the train station for help. Someone will take care of my aunt along the way."

It’s good to have comrades in arms, there are people to help you with everything you do!

Zuo Jingyan was very envious. The comrades-in-arms friendship in this era was without any impurities and they helped sincerely.

The three of them took the car back to their family compound. It was time to get off work and they met several acquaintances on the road. Zuo Jingyan greeted them one by one.

"Jingyan, I heard that you were sick, and a few of us asked to see you. We didn't know which hospital you were in, and we were worried to death."

Li Ling followed her to the door of her house and asked. She just didn't know which hospital Zuo Jingyan was in, otherwise she would have gone to see her long ago.

"Yeah, I got caught in the rain and caught a cold."

Zuo Jingyan opened the car door and got out of the car, smiled and said to her: "I'm fine now. Thank you sister-in-law for your concern."

Thinking that she was moving away, she was really reluctant to let go of these sisters-in-law in the compound. Zuo Jingyan wanted to treat these sisters-in-law to a meal before leaving, bring back the tools, and give them new hairstyles.

"Invite some sisters-in-law over tomorrow night. I will cook some side dishes and we can sit together and have a good chat."

Li Ling waved her hand: "Oh, no, you have just recovered from a serious illness, how can you treat me? If you want to treat me, it will be us who treat you."

"Yes, yes, I originally wanted to go see you together, but now that you are back, we will treat you to dinner."

Jiang Xueying came over from home when she heard the sound and said to Zuo Jingyan with a smile.

Zuo Jingyan quickly said: "I just have a cold, it's not a serious illness. I'll treat you."

Sister-in-law Lin and Sister-in-law Gu suggested: "How about we do what we did last time, where each family prepares a dish and brings it to Jingyan's house to eat."

"I think it's okay, that's it."

Zuo Jingyan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She clearly said she was treating guests, but when everyone took the food, she simply said:

"Then I'll go to the city early tomorrow morning, buy some meat, and let's make dumplings. We'll celebrate the New Year in advance."

When it comes to what has the liveliest atmosphere, of course it’s making dumplings. During the Chinese New Year, the whole family gathers together to make dumplings, chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere is always warm and cozy.

"There are so many people, how many dumplings should we eat?"

Jiang Xueying thought about it for Zuo Jingyan. Although it was a gathering of women without men, they still had children. There were at least two children in the family, and together with the adults, there were twenty people!

Zuo Jingyan reminded with a smile: "Sister-in-law, there are many people eating, and there are also many making dumplings. There are so many of us, we will finish making them in a while."

"Okay, that's it."

After the military wives discussed it, they all went home to cook. Zuo Jingyan took the key and opened the door.

After the courtyard door opened, she glanced at the garden, her mind wandering far away. Lu Haoting was still weeding the garden in the morning. Now he doesn't know where he is?

Back in the house, Xiaoyu helped her sister-in-law and chopped meat in the kitchen with a kitchen knife. Zuo Jingyan handed a large bundle of celery to Qin Feng and then handed him a basin:

"I'll give you a task. Pick celery. Pick the leaves and put them in a basin. I'll make some pickles later."

"Okay, please lift it up!"

Qin Feng happily accepted the task. He could sit here picking celery and chat with Xiao Yu who was chopping meat in the kitchen. He was happy to do this job.

"Don't eat the dumplings for free. After you finish the dumplings, teach me and Xiaoyu how to fight."

Zuo Jingyan smiled and gave an order. Qin Feng was even more happy. He stood up and gave a standard military salute:

"Guaranteed to complete the task."

Xiao Yu saw Brother Qin saluting in the kitchen. She didn't know what was going on. The sound of chopping meat was so loud that she didn't even hear what they were saying.

The little girl stuck her head out and asked curiously:

"What's the mission?"

"After dinner, learn how to fight with your brother Qin, so that you won't be able to beat someone when you are bullied in the future."

Zuo Jingyan went back to the kitchen to make noodles. When she saw the curious baby Xiaoyu, she smiled and nudged her nose.

I still remember Xiaoyu’s fierceness in the first fight. She hit the gangster with a brick, and she was just as tough as her godmother used a brick to hit the wool roll today. She is a good fighter.

What happened today made Zuo Jingyan more determined to learn fighting. She learned some self-defense skills in her previous life, but it was not enough for fighting. There is no harm in learning more.

While at the police station, a policeman who had arrested a human trafficker before told Zuo Jingyan that the trafficker was the father of the gangster who was lying on the toilet that she and Xiaoyu had arrested, and he wanted to catch them and sell them out of revenge.

Hearing this, Zuo Jingyan was very scared. If Xiaoyu was alone that day, she might have been kidnapped by human traffickers and sold into a mountain.
