Chapter 276: There are some sayings among blood relatives

Perhaps because father and daughter are connected by heart, Jiang Ye, who was taking a nap on the table in the command room, suddenly laughed.

This startled the young soldier who had just come in to deliver the boxed lunch. This commander could actually laugh?

"Enter."

"Yes."

After putting down the lunch, the young soldier saluted and left.

He really had laughed. Since coming here, this commander had been stern and unsmiling; this was the first time he had seen such a soft expression on the other's face!

People are iron, rice is steel; one gets hungry if they don't eat a meal.

Jiang Ye was a mortal; even with memories of his past life, he couldn't be an exception.

Just as he opened the lunch box, footsteps approached from the command room door. No need to guess, it was his brother-in-law.

"Brother-in-law—"

"Crack."

Breaking in without knocking—there was no one else like him.

"What are you here for?"

Jiang Ye put down the lid of the lunch box, revealing the braised pork with quail eggs inside; the other lunch box was full of rice.

"Here to mooch some food."

Lu Xiu Bai had no sense of boundaries; he stated his reason for mooching food without any shame.

He was just here to mooch food. The food for a battalion commander was different from that of a regiment commander.

His lunch box had celery and dried tofu, plus a few shreds of meat; the rice was brown rice, the kind with sand in it.

Then look at his brother-in-law's: braised pork with quail eggs, white rice, wuwuwu.

He couldn't mooch a meal, but couldn't he mooch some dishes?

"I don't care, you promised my sister and grandfather that you would take good care of me."

Lu Xiu Bai was just shameless, handing over his lunch box; the meaning was obvious: meet, share half.

"..."

Jiang Ye didn't refute. Although he hadn't said those exact words, his brother-in-law wasn't wrong. Fine, share it.

"At this time, Grandfather and Sister and the others must be eating dinner or bathing the children, right?"

The boxed lunch wasn't hard to eat, but it wasn't exactly delicious either.

As Lu Bai ate, he became a bit distracted.

He missed his daughter, his wife, and his grandfather and sister and the others.

"Eat, don't talk too much."

Jiang Ye's eyes revealed a hint of disgust; this brother-in-law of his really knew how to touch a sore spot.

He missed his wife and children too.

What had he said?

"Oh."

Lu Xiu Bai silently ate the meat in large mouthfuls. Delicious.

He had thought he had no appetite, but he didn't expect the braised pork to be so appetizing!

The relationship between the two was not brothers, but better than brothers.

Just as they finished eating, the phone in the command room rang.

Lu Xiu Bai very sensibly followed his brother-in-law's lunch box and took the initiative to leave.

At his level, there were some messages he couldn't listen to.

In the command room, Jiang Ye answered the phone, and after matching the encrypted content, he began to record the instructions given by the other party...

Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.

There are some sayings among blood relatives.

Shen Man and Pei Yan Ting were both a bit restless sleeping at night.

They would always dream of some strange things, seeing their men on dangerous missions; even knowing it was a dream, they couldn't help but be terrified.

Until they woke up sweating, it wasn't dawn yet.

The children beside them were sleeping soundly, and their pounding hearts gradually calmed down.

Dreams are all the opposite, right?

Perhaps some dangers were just things they imagined.

Only then did they understand that saying: the pressure a military wife has to bear is imaginable.

But they had no choice; their husbands were first handed over to the country. When the country needed them, they had no choice but to take on the responsibility.

This was responsibility, this was glory, this was for the future of the motherland, for the sake of future generations.

I heard that the annual matchmaking conference will be held on the Sea Island next month. I wonder how many couples will be made this year?

A batch of military wives will soon move into the family quarters.

At that time, it will be lively again...

It wasn't just Shen Man and the others who were sleepless, but also other military wives in the family quarters whose husbands were away on missions.

Some of them had been married for many years and were used to their husbands going on missions.

There were also those who were newly married for about a year and were mothers who had just given birth.

The last mission was more than half a year ago. They thought they were used to it, but in fact, in the dead of night, when they were alone at home with their children, they still weren't used to it.

Fortunately, the family quarters had electricity, so they could turn on the lights; light could dispel the darkness, dispel the fear and terror in people's hearts...

No matter what era they were in, life was never about "years of peace and quiet"; there were always people carrying the burden for them.

"Lowly as I am, I never dare to forget the country."

Truth is only within the range of the cannons.

Early in the morning, Wang Mingkui held her daughter and brought her two stinky boys to the younger brother's house.

No choice, she was in a hurry. Her eldest niece had never left her hometown, and this was her first time going out, and she was taking a train. She was afraid that if she picked her up late, the child would meet bad people.

So early in the morning, she cooked, fed her daughter milk, and changed her diaper.

She made noodles for her sons, saving them from eating and drinking wildly at the younger brother's house.

In this day and age, food didn't just fall from the sky.

She had the face to leave the children at the younger brother's house because the affection was there.

But she didn't have the face to let the children eat and drink wildly at the younger brother's house; that would be too shameless.

No matter how good the affection was, it couldn't be squandered like that.

As for her husband, he had already eaten at the canteen and would probably be busy until he got off work in the evening before he could go home.

Sigh, no choice, the things a Political Commissar had to do were like an old mother's; everything had to be done, everything had to be watched, otherwise if something went wrong, it would all be...

Ahem, her words were blunt, so she wouldn't say it.

"Weiguo, Weijia, your names are really good; protecting the country in the future, not bad, not bad."

Elder Lu smiled kindly, greeting the two boys to come into the house and sit down, then turned on the television—a screen of snowflakes. Oh, forgot, it wasn't time yet; usually, there were programs at eight or nine o'clock.

"Have you eaten? The TV won't show programs for another hour."

"Replying to Grandpa Lu, we have eaten."

Ji Weiguo was the older brother; his parents had always taught him to be generous, to answer every question, and to be polite when outside.

As for Ji Weijia, he held his sister cautiously, not daring to look around.

Although he had been to Aunt Shen's house several times, this time there were elders present, so he didn't dare to walk around.

"Hey, good children, don't be reserved. Your Aunt Shen is my granddaughter; you can treat me as one of your own.

By the way, my granddaughter specially made cat ears last night, saying that if you came, she would bring them out for you to eat. Wait a moment, I'll go into the room and get them."

Elder Lu still had a way of dealing with children.

Saying this, the two Ji brothers immediately felt much more relaxed.

They weren't small children anymore; they could distinguish between adults' likes and dislikes.

Aunt Shen's grandfather was very kind, smiling, looking at them with the same eyes their grandfather looked at them with—benevolent.

Then it was fine, relax.

Ji Si Si was here for the first time, seeing everything around her as strange; only her brothers were familiar, so she dependently grabbed her brother's collar and clothes and wouldn't let go.

Then she saw the little brother lying on the ground (on the straw mat), and her eyes lit up.

She fluttered her little feet, signaling her brother to put her down.

Ji Weijia happened to be tired of holding her, so he put his sister down.

And then, what followed was... ===== CHAPTER 277 =====
