Chen Jianmin likes straightforward people the most, so when he looked at Li Jingqian, his smile became more sincere, and said, "Okay, Jingqian. You can also call me by my name."
"How old are you by the way?" Li Jingqian asked.
"I am 12 years old this year." Chen Jianmin said.
"We are 8 years old this year. Since you are older than us, then we will call you Brother Jianmin and you can call us by name."
"Okay."
At the same time, Lu Jueyu was busy in the kitchen. She heated the dishes she had taken out from her space earlier, and when she was alone, she took out the remaining dishes from her space.
Just as the food was warmed up, Liu Hua, Pan Meijia, Zhang Dongmei, and Chen Anwen entered the kitchen. Looking at the amount of food, they were surprised.
"Jueyu, there is so much food. Can we finish it?" Zhang Dongmei asked.
"If there are any leftovers, we can eat them later or let the guests bring them back." Lu Jueyu said with a smile.
Nodding her head, Zhang Dongmei added, "Jueyu, everyone is here. Now it’s time to serve the dishes."
Lu Jueyu nodded, pointed to the dishes, and said, "Sister-in-law, Meijia, sister Liu Hua, please help me take the dishes out. I will get the wine first."
"Alright! Leave it to us." Liu Hua said and went to serve the food.
When the food was being served, Lu Jueyu walked to the back of the kitchen carrying two wine vessels. Her husband kept the water vat she used to make wine there. So if she went there to get the wine, no one would suspect her.
After confirming that she was alone, she went into her own space, filled the wine vessels with grape wine, and then left the space.
When she brought out the wine, Li Chenmo walked over to her and took the wine vessels from her hand. He came closer and said, "Wife, why did it take you so long to come back?"
Unlike in the modern era, where people find it rude to be given leftover food, people in this era were happy just to get extra food. So, when Chen Jianmin got the food, he thanked Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu repeatedly. freeweɓnovel.cøm
At the same time, in the military camp near the capital, Xiao Yiqing was cultivating a small piece of land under the house building. Every family who lived in the compound was given a small piece of land of twelve square meters, which could be used to grow some vegetables.
Because she is new here, she has no friends yet. Therefore, when her husband is training or going on missions, she can only pass the time by growing vegetables or reading books. Due to her weaker constitution, she needs more rest than other women when she plants vegetables.
Just after resting for a while, she heard a young woman chatting with another woman who was looking at her with a sneer, "At her speed, she won’t be able to finish plowing the plot in ten days."
Xiao Yiqing didn’t know that they were talking about herself at first, but when she turned around, she found that the young woman was sneering at her. When she saw this scene, she frowned. She didn’t know what she had done to offend this person.
She recalled that soon after her husband invited his friends and some neighbors for the housewarming meal, this woman started picking on her. Although this woman didn’t do anything to hurt her, she liked to make sarcastic remarks and say bad things about her behind her back.
When she was trying to recall what she had done to offend that woman, she heard her say, "Oh, look at the scars on her arms. Tsk, tsk, tsk, just looking at her scars makes me feel sick. I don’t know how Comrade Mu can stand her. I guess he won’t touch her at all."
When Xiao Yiqing heard this, she stood up and walked towards the woman. Seeing her coming over and looking at her with a frown, the woman quickly stood up and asked, "You... What do you want to do? I tell you, if you dare to hit me, I will scream and let everyone know how vicious you are!"
