Wang Xiaojuan finally put down her cards, walked into the store, and greeted her daughter and son-in-law.
"Mom, let me tell you something." Li Manjun nodded to Wang Xiaojuan while drinking soda.
Wang Xiaojuan came over and asked Zhao Yong if he was tired after driving there, and her eyes signaled to Li Manjun that he had to fart quickly.
Zhao Yong asked first if he was tired, and took his daughter who was about to go out, and left the store towards the department store. Needless to say, the little girl must want to buy something.
Li Manjun warned not to get too used to it, "Eat, drink and snacks are all available at home."
"I know, I know." Zhao Yong responded, already leading his daughter away.
From time to time, Li Manjun buys a lot of things in the supermarket in the city and asks the bus driver to bring them over. Some are nutritional supplements for her parents, and some are snacks and toys for her daughter. It is not easy to ask the elderly at home to spend money on her. Although Wang Xiaojuan and Li Dawei are very happy,
Just be happy.
Wang Xiaojuan asked Li Manjun what he wanted to say, and Li Manjun told her that Li Jianjun had written to her.
"Jianjun, he wrote you a letter. What did he say? Where is the letter? Have you brought it? Let me see." There has been no news from Li Jianjun in the family for a long time. Wang Xiaojuan became excited when she heard about it.
Li Manjun shook his head, "I didn't bring the letter, and he didn't say anything. He just said that after serving for three years next year, he plans to come home."
Li Manjun didn't mention his brother's hesitation about whether to stay in the army. Since he had already decided to come back, he didn't mention it anymore, lest Wang Xiaojuan would still have to worry about it.
After all, in the parents' view, they are more inclined to wait for the army to assign jobs, and they may want Li Jianjun to continue serving in order to earn a future.
If it were before, Li Manjun would probably have thought the same way, but now that there is no shortage of food and drink at home, and a little ability, there is naturally a better choice than continuing to serve.
"Mom, Jianjun told me that the policy has changed now. If you retire after completing your service period, you will not receive any distribution. You can only receive a welfare subsidy."
"Of course, if you want to find a job, the army can help you write a letter of recommendation and take it to the street office. It may be more convenient when you look for a job."
"How could this happen?" Wang Xiaojuan found it a little hard to accept, and asked in disbelief: "Did he say it himself or did the army cadres say it?"
These days, are there any that don’t include distribution?
"Is he a liar?" Wang Xiaojuan asked again, and she sighed as she said the question. As for Li Jianjun's character, if it sounds good, he is honest and obedient, but if it doesn't sound good, even if he is stupid, I don't think he can make it up.
A story like this comes out.
Li Manjun knew that Wang Xiaojuan couldn't accept it at once, so he told her that this was the truth and that she had already inquired about it.
Wang Xiaojuan was left to take her own time, while Li Manjun called Li Lijun to go find Zhao Yong and his daughter.
On the way to the department store, the two sisters met the father and daughter who were walking back happily hand in hand. Nian Nian had a lot of stuff in his hands, holding a candy carousel in one hand and a bamboo cage in the other.
A living little white rabbit.
"Did you buy it?" Li Manjun looked at Zhao Yong with a big head and wanted to get angry.
She has always said that she is not allowed to keep small animals, but no one at home takes care of them, but they actually bought them for her!
When Nian Nian saw her mother appear, she hid guiltily towards her aunt, stuck out her little head, and seriously discussed with her mother, "I'll feed it myself."
Zhao Yong also helped, "She stood in front of the stall and refused to move. She pitifully said that Little Rabbit wanted to go home with her for dinner, so I just..."
If it were her, she wouldn't be able to withstand it!
Li Manjun took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and waved to Zhao Jianing to come over and let him see the rabbit.
Nian Nian looked at his father and then his aunt, and after getting the look from the two adults, he approached his mother with the cage and eagerly handed it to her, as if he was ready to protect the rabbit and escape.
Li Manjun was originally angry, but seeing her expression, he laughed angrily.
Seeing my mother smile, I couldn't help but smile in a flattering way every year, and put the candy man that I licked until it was sticky to my mother's mouth, "Mom, the little white rabbit is very good."
Li Manjun tilted her head and refused to accept the bribe, thinking to herself, that's when you didn't encounter it pooping or peeing. The rabbit's urine was so smelly that she didn't even know where to put the rabbit's nest.
Looking at it like this, it is impossible to stay at the grandparents' house, Zhao Jianing will definitely be taken away.
"Alas~" Li Manjun glanced at the little white rabbit with innocent red eyes in the cage and couldn't help but sigh.
"It's okay. I'll go back and build a wooden cage on the balcony for the rabbit to live in. Just clean it every day." Zhao Yong knew that his wife had some mysophobia and hurriedly put forward suggestions for solutions.
Li Manjun asked: "Are you sure you can do it?"
The father and daughter both nodded. Li Manjun softened and waved his hands, "Forget it, I promised you in advance that I won't take care of it. You two can take care of it yourself!"
The father and daughter looked at each other and smiled in surprise.
In the afternoon, Li Dawei came back from his hometown. Li Manjun and his family stayed in Heather Town to have dinner with their parents. They talked about Li Jianjun and calmed down their emotions before driving home with Nian Nian and her little rabbit.
.
The highway was fast, and we got home in just over half an hour. Niannian fell asleep holding her rabbit in her arms. The little rabbit was bouncing around in the back seat, her head tilted, she was motion sick, and she was stunned.
Li Manjun originally found it annoying to look at it, but at this moment, he had to admit that it was indeed a bit cute.
Raising a small animal is not an easy task. After all, it is a living life and you must be responsible for it.
Fortunately, Zhao Yong immediately made a wooden cage and bought a changing mat to spread on the balcony, ensuring the harmonious coexistence of humans and rabbits.
I love this little rabbit so much every year that I want to replace the rabbit doll on my bedside and sleep with the rabbit in my arms.
Li Manjun couldn't let her go and refused harshly.
I visit my father every year, but my father shrugs helplessly, "Your father can't make the decision in this matter."
Seeing that there was no help every year, he resigned himself to his fate and continued to sleep with the doll rabbit in his arms.
But before going to kindergarten every day, I have to throw a carrot to the little rabbit. When I come home from kindergarten in the afternoon, I have to release it from the cage and take it downstairs to play with rabbits in the community.
Although Zhao Yong has consciously acted as the rabbit's health caretaker, he still can't avoid the smell in the house. The autumn tiger originally made people uncomfortable due to the stuffy heat. Coupled with this smell, Li Manjun was a little irritable.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is here, and the kindergarten teacher suggested that the children go home and make their own mooncakes. When they come back with a mission every year, Aunt Guo starts to prepare the ingredients, planning to make handmade mooncakes for the family to eat during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
When Li Manjun was wrapping the stuffing impatiently, the doorbell rang.
"Mom, I'll open the door!" Niannian volunteered, jumped off the stool, and went to open the door.
Li Manjun was worried and asked Zhao Yong, who was sitting on the sofa and blowing on the air conditioner, to follow him and take a look.
The father and daughter came to the door and opened it. An unexpected person came outside.
"Mr. Zhu?!" Zhao Yong was surprised. When did Zhu Yaowei return to Rongcheng?
I still remember this uncle every year, but I am embarrassed to call him, so I quickly turn around and run back to call my mother.
