MTL - Seventy Couple’s Daily Routine-Chapter 81 To shut up!

The boat that Lin's father and Lin's mother were on arrived at around 8 o'clock, so before 7:30, Lin Wei was woken up by Zong Shao.

She slept in the early morning again last night. When she was woken up, she was still sleepy. She squinted her eyes and looked at Zong Shao for a while, then turned over to go back to sleep. But after a few seconds of sleep, Zong Shao said, "If you don't get up again, you won't be able to pick up your parents."

Because of lack of sleep, Lin Wei's head turned a little slow. After thinking for half a minute, she remembered that her parents were coming, so she had to rely on perseverance to get up.

After brushing his teeth and washing his face, Zong Shao said, "There are soy milk fritters on the table."

As the Chinese New Year approaches, the breakfast options in state-run restaurants are much richer, usually steamed buns, steamed buns, noodles, and rice noodles. Recently, soy milk fritters have been added, and occasionally bean curd.

Lin Wei picked up the fried dough stick and broke it in half, bit her mouth and asked, "What time is it?"

"Seven thirty-five, we're leaving around forty?"

Lin Wei nodded, quickly chewing and swallowing the fried dough sticks, and finished the dough sticks before forty, but she was in a hurry and couldn't finish the soy milk, so she put it down and said she would drink it later.

Zong Shao responded, went to the back to call the two children back, and then locked the door and set off.

The army prohibits the private use of public vehicles, but because of the inconvenient transportation on the island, the army does not completely prohibit the private use of vehicles by officers. As long as you apply in advance, you can pay for the oil yourself. In addition, if the vehicle breaks down during use, you have to pay for it yourself.

The oil fee is okay, the price is not expensive, and the surrounding area is completely affordable. But the repair cost is hard to say. If you are lucky, you don't need to replace the parts, and the people in the army can repair it. If you are unlucky, the old shígG dujia parts are broken, and the money is not necessarily the money.

Therefore, unless there are special circumstances, very few people will apply for private use, but today is to pick up the father-in-law and mother-in-law, Zong Shao called the application in advance, and drove the jeep back last night.

The distance from the family area to the port is actually not too close. It would take about twenty minutes to walk, but the drive is fast. Before 7:50, a family of four appeared at the military port pier.

Today is Sunday, the soldiers are not training, but they are not cold at all on the pier. As the Chinese New Year is approaching, many come to visit relatives, and many want to return to their hometowns. It is not only the Lin Wei family who come to pick up people.

They all live in the family area. Regardless of whether the relationship is good or not, people always know each other. When they meet, they can't help but greet each other a few times, and casually ask each other what relatives are visiting relatives.

In fact, this question is pure nonsense. It's almost New Year's Eve, and I will go out at this time, except my parents.

But parents are also different. For example, the other people who come to pick up are basically the parents of the man, while Lin Wei and the others want to pick up her parents. Because of this difference, everyone looked at them with a little more curiosity.

Lin Wei knew what they were curious about. The mainstream thinking these days is still to celebrate the New Year in their hometown, especially if they want to celebrate the New Year with their son. No matter how old the thinking is, the daughters in their thirties can't go back to their parents' home.

Shicheng can't say that there is no such tradition at all. For example, in the brigade where Lin Wei's family is located, there are people who drive their daughters out in their thirties. But her parents were different. In the years after her mother-in-law passed away, she spent the years with her two children at her parents' house.

But she wrote a letter to invite her parents to come all the way to Yazhou Island to celebrate the New Year, not because they had been together in previous years, so they will be together this year. It's because although she hopes that she can live, she is not sure what the future will be like, and she wants to reunite with her family during the Chinese New Year.

It's just that Zong Shao asked for more than half a month's leave in the middle of the year, and it's not easy to ask again at the end of the year, so after the discussion, Lin Wei wrote a letter to invite them to come to the island for the New Year.

When writing the letter, Lin Wei was afraid that her parents would not come, so she deliberately praised Yazhou Island over and over again, what seasons are like spring, suitable for winter, and what kind of abalone, ginseng and belly can be eaten.

So Zong Shao was silent for a bit after reading the letter, and asked, "Abalone, ginseng and winged belly can be eaten casually, are you sure?"

"Abalone can be eaten casually, and sea cucumbers are often sold, so it's not a lie." Lin Wei quibble, "Besides, my parents come all the way, and they definitely want to see us. These are not important."

…

In her memories, Lin Wei heard the sound of "woo woo" coming from afar. After waiting for a few minutes, a military supply ship appeared in her field of vision.

Seeing the ship, Mingming jumped up and waved his arms excitedly.

Rarity also stepped forward, trying to see more clearly, but Lin Wei stopped her after a few steps. She was afraid that he would fall into the sea. But Rarity didn't have to go any further, as the distance got closer, the ships in sight got bigger and bigger, and he finally took a few steps back himself, looking up to get a better view of the big guy in front of him. .

After the ship docked, it took a few minutes before the hatch was opened, and the families of officers who boarded the island on the supply ship disembarked one after another.

Lin Wei's parents were walking in the middle, with big and small bags in their hands. After seeing them, Lin's mother stopped, hung the thing in her right hand to the other side, and raised her hand and waved.

"Grandma! That's grandma!" Mingming immediately called out when she saw Lin's mother, and waved her hands up and down.

Lin Wei and Zong Shao also rushed to meet her. After her parents got off the boat, they reached out to take the things in their hands and asked, "Why do you bring so many things?"

"Is that more?" Mother Lin handed a light burden to her daughter and complained, "If your dad wasn't very old, let him get more things and call him there. That won't work, that won't work, I can still pack a couple of things. bag stuff."

Father Lin, who disembarked at the back, was very dissatisfied when he heard his daughter-in-law's words: "What did your old woman say, you can carry something that weighs about thirty pounds!"

"I'll get it." Zong Shao said, took the bag from Father Lin's shoulder, and reached out to take the remaining package from his mother-in-law.

Mother Lin declined and said, "No, I can take it."

"Mom, let him take it, he is very powerful." Lin Wei assigned Zong Shao a task.

Mother Lin turned her head and saw Zong Shao lifted the bag of grain that Father Lin was carrying with one hand, so she handed the package to him suspiciously, not forgetting to scold her husband: "Look at you, even Xiao Zong is half as good."

Father Lin was so angry that he looked up, thinking how old is he and how old am I? Besides, he was a soldier, shouldn't he be strong? But in front of his daughter-in-law, he gave her a face, and only waved to his two grandsons: "Come here, Rarity has grown taller again."

Mingming, who was accused of being tall, said, "Grandpa, I'm not a younger brother!"

Rarity said, "I'm Rarity."

Father Lin: "Ah? Like this, you two brothers look more and more alike."

"Come on, it's as if you recognized it before." Mother Lin said, taking out a few toffees from her pocket and handing them to the two children, "grandmother brought them specially for you."

Children love to eat candy, and Mingming Ruirui is no exception, and happily said "Thank you, grandma." When Father Lin listened, he straightened his chest, and after waiting for a while, he coughed lightly without waiting for the second half of the sentence.

"Obviously Ruirui, don't you thank grandpa?" Lin Wei reminded, "Grandpa and grandma are together."

The implication is that the sugar is given by grandparents together.

Ruirui suddenly realized, and thanked her in unison again. Seeing her husband's complacent appearance, Mother Lin whispered to her daughter, "The older you get, the more you care."

Lin Wei smiled: "You were originally together."

After the greeting, several people walked outside the pier.

There was a lot of chatter on the road, and the little adults asked when the grandfather and grandmother left, whether it was fun or not, and whether they were tired.

Asked that Mother Lin felt at ease, she praised, "I'm getting more and more sensible."

Mingming said proudly: "I'm already a big kid!"

After hearing this, Lin Wei whispered to Mother Lin, "Mom, don't praise him, your tail is about to go up in the sky."

Mother Lin disagreed with her daughter's point of view and said, "Of course children should be praised when they are sensible."

Lin Wei thought, I was so sensible when I was a child, and I never saw you praise me so much.

The mother and daughter were chatting and laughing with the two children, while Father Lin walked with Zong Shao and asked him about his work. Although he has never been a soldier, after his daughter married Zong Shao, he learned a lot about relevant news, and the questions he asked were not too superficial.

While talking, a few people left the pier, and Zong Shao led the people to the docked military jeep.

When she learned that Zong Shao had come by car, Mother Lin was very happy, but she still said angrily: "What a long way to go, it's enough if we just walk, why drive here?"

Father Lin thought more deeply and asked, "Is it alright if you drive here?"

"It's okay, I applied in advance, and I will pay for the fuel costs myself." Zong Shao said.

When Father Lin heard this, he knew that his son-in-law was reliable, and nodded with satisfaction, while Mother Lin asked more: "Is the oil expensive?"

"It's not expensive," Zong Shao said.

The fuel cost is indeed not expensive, but Mother Lin still instructed: "When you get home later, you can send the car back as soon as possible. The army car is not easy to use indiscriminately."

"I called the application and said it would take two days. Just drive back tomorrow morning. In the afternoon, Weiwei and I will take you out for a walk." Zong Shao said, greeting a few people to get on the bus.

Cars are not common these days. Even Father Lin only saw the leader drive it when he went to a meeting in the city, but he himself had never sat in it. The same goes for Mother Lin, who has only seen it from a distance, never touched or sat on it.

Therefore, when they got into the car, the two of them were a little cautious, not because they were afraid of bumping themselves, but because they were afraid that they would damage the car.

When Lin Wei saw it, she said, "Actually, the car sits almost like a bus, but it's a little more stable after driving, and it's not so wobbly."

Mother Lin thought that it was different. The shuttle bus cost 30 cents to ride once, and she could take it if she wanted to, but the car was different, and it was hard to see it on the road, but she still relaxed a little.

Soon, the jeep started driving, and it was still the same road that Lin Wei had taken when she first came to join the army, but the roadside was green at that time, and the grass along the roadside was now withered and yellowed.

Mother Lin looked at it and said, "This road is similar to what we see outside our brigade."

"It's all roads, of course it's about the same." Lin Wei said.

Mingming interjected and asked, "Where is our brigade?"

Lin Wei said, "It's my grandmother's house."

Mingming sighed, thinking of his grandmother's cousin again, and asked, "Grandma, why isn't my cousin here?"

"They didn't come over to celebrate the New Year at home," said Mother Lin.

Mingming asked suspiciously, "Can't you come to our house for the Chinese New Year?"

Mother Lin pointed to the luggage under her feet and said, "It's too far. Grandpa and grandma have so many things that they can't take them."

"Okay." Mingming sighed in disappointment.

After chatting, the jeep drove into the family area, still entering through the door of the townhouse. Mother Lin looked at the house outside and said, "The environment of your family home is good."

Father Lin said, "It's a military compound after all, where do you live?" The second half of the sentence asked Lin Wei and Zong Shao.

Lin Wei pointed to the front and said, "This is a row house, and several of them share a yard. We live in an old house inside, which is a single family."

"Our family can see the sea." Mingming interjected.

"Really."

Mingming nodded and said, "Yes, there is a beach in front of our house. We can build a house. Will you build a house, grandma?"

"Then grandma really can't."

Mingming patted his chest and said, "It's okay, I can teach you, I'm really good at building a house."

"It's here." Zong Shao slowly braked the car and said.

Mother Lin looked up and saw that although the houses here are not as new as the front ones, they are all brick and tile houses, and they are single-family houses. They look spacious and ask, "Which one do you live in?"

Lin Wei pushed open the car door and went out, pointed to the front and said, "That's our house."

Mother Lin followed her pointing and asked, "How old is your family?"

"Upstairs and downstairs combined, it is similar to our house, but there are no rooms downstairs, so there are two rooms upstairs." Speaking of the old house, Lin Wei directly arranged the accommodation for the night. Sleep with me and let Zong Shao live in a room with Dad."

Obviously didn't hear his mother mention him and his younger brother, and quickly asked, "What about me and my younger brother? Where do we sleep?"

"Where do you want to sleep, and whoever you want to sleep with." Lin Wei said with a smile.

"Then I'm going to sleep with my mother and grandmother," Mingming didn't hesitate, and didn't forget to complain, "Grandma, do you know that my father is broken. When he is at home, my brother and I will not be allowed to sleep with my mother."

Zong Shao took the luggage, closed the car door, slapped his son on the head when he heard this, and asked, "When did I stop you from sleeping with mom?"

"Yesterday, the day before yesterday, the day before yesterday... There are still many, many days, you won't let me sleep with my mother!" Mingming immediately counted, the more he counted, the more angry he continued to complain, "Dad won't let me and my brother sleep with my mother. Forget it, I still sleep with my mother every day! As soon as my mother sleeps with my father, I have to sleep late in the morning..."

Lin Wei's face flushed instantly, she coughed hard, and gestured to Zong Shao with her eyes: "Take care of your son!"

After receiving the signal from his daughter-in-law, Zong Shao lowered his right hand on Mingming's head and directly covered his son's mouth.

Mingming opened his eyes wide, raised his hand and pulled his father's hand down, and asked loudly, "Woooooooooo!"

Zong Shao: "Shut up!"

Lin's father and Lin's mother: "..." We didn't hear anything.
