The 80s Chronicle: Addiction To the Army’s Young Wife

Chapter 078: [Can't Swallow This Breath] 5000

At dusk that day, Xu Jianjun came in from the outside with a happy face.

"I've been promoted." As soon as he entered the door, Xu Jianjun loudly announced the good news.

"Promotion?" Qin Xuejuan wondered, "What position?"

Xu Jianjun stepped forward and poured a glass of water, "The director of our department has been transferred to the county, and the higher-ups asked me to take her place."

Xu Jianjun has worked in the accounting department of the township government for more than ten years. After calculation, he is now a relatively senior person in the department. However, the previous two promotions were all sent by people from above. Promoted.

Only then did Qin Xuejuan smile, "Then you are Director Xu now?"

"Yeah!" After drinking half a glass of water, he breathed a sigh of relief, "It was also the mayor who communicated with the higher-ups. This time, I have to thank him."

"Of course I want to thank you, but it's your ability here. Otherwise, even if the mayor wants to help you, he will be powerless." Qin Xuejuan thought about her husband's promotion, so she should cook a few more dishes today.

"Let's give someone something tomorrow." The old lady knows how to be grateful, and of course she knows how to measure it. "We don't give those expensive gifts, but some cucumbers and persimmons."

Xu Jianjun nodded, "I think it's okay, I'll pack some tomorrow morning, and I'll take it there directly. We grow it at home, and it won't make people gossip if we give it to him."

Qin Xuejuan laughed and said: "This gift is no less important than giving something else. Our cucumber and persimmon are the only ones in the whole country."

"It's not a big deal." The old lady also nodded in agreement, "Juan'er, do you feel uncomfortable eating those?"

"No." After Qin Xuejuan was pregnant, she often ate cucumbers and tomatoes in the space, eating them raw as fruit. "Not only did she not feel uncomfortable, but she felt very relaxed. The morning sickness was gone, and she slept soundly. Two days ago, Jianjun and I went to the hospital for an examination, and the doctor said that everything is very good, and there is no problem at all."

"It seems that it is really good for people. My hair has grown black. It is probably because of the water."

Xu Ning smiled happily, "Grandma, you just realized it. Didn't you say you were blessed by the gods before?"

"That thing of yours might have been sent by a god." The old lady was a little ashamed.

"Yes, yes, you can do whatever you want." Xu Ning found that his grandma was really cute.

In the evening, Qin Xuejuan and Xu Ning cooked seven or eight dishes in the kitchen, and the old lady directly asked the family of three next door to come over for dinner at home.

When Mr. Jiang heard that Xu Jianjun had been promoted, he was also happy for him.

"You should have been promoted a long time ago. You have worked in one place for more than ten years, and there is no problem with your qualifications."

"This kind of thing is not up to us to decide, and I think the promotion is quite appropriate now, and the salary is a bit higher. It just so happens that Juan'er quit her job with her child, and the family is starting to relax now."

"This is double happiness for you, so you don't want to celebrate it properly." Mr. Jiang didn't bring a cigarette bag this time because Qin Xuejuan was pregnant with a child. "The grandson of an old comrade-in-arms of mine was admitted to a good university in the south. Your aunt and I went to their house to celebrate, and brought me two bottles of Moutai when we came back, let’s drink one bottle tonight. Xiao Zheng, you go back and get it!"

"My grandma brought it with her when she came." Xie Zheng pointed to the square table in front, "It's on the table."

Xu Jianjun was also quite surprised. Who doesn’t know Moutai, the national liquor Moutai is well-known both at home and abroad. Since the founding of the People’s Republic of China, Moutai has always appeared in welcome banquets for foreign visitors. The price is definitely not cheap, and money is not enough can buy.

"Uncle Jiang, you are really good, it's actually Moutai." Xu Jianjun picked it up to have a look, and then carefully put it on the table, "But you should save yourself to drink slowly, let's drink Erguotou, I can't drink It would be a waste to drink that Moutai."

"It's not a waste, it's not a waste, this wine is not good to drink alone, it has to be drunk with several people to make it lively, if your aunt drinks, it will be fine."

Gao Xiulan was dumbfounded by these words.

"You old and unscrupulous, what kind of wine do I, an old lady, drink?"

"Why can't the old women drink it? My old lady who passed away was especially good at drinking it. My father and I couldn't drink her together."

Mr. Jiang has a bold personality, but he can often say some unexpected things.

"Grandma heard you say that to her, it's time to hit you in her dreams at night."

Yu Chunhua also nodded to add insult to injury, "Well, this is a light beating."

Mr. Jiang's face turned green and pale, and he turned to Xu Jianjun for a while and said, "We old men don't care about old women."

For a while, laughter resounded in Xu's small courtyard.

In the kitchen, Xu Ning made a dish of sea rice mixed with cucumber and sugar mixed with tomatoes. These two dishes are Qin Xuejuan's favorite. Of course, the main reason is that Qin Xuejuan thinks that raw cucumber and tomato taste very good, and there is no need for extra Add something else.

In addition, I also made fried leeks with eggs, sliced ​​Chinese cabbage, fried garlic sprouts, and a meat dish with braised carp. Finally, Xu Ning made a tofu and clam broth. The clam meat cannot be preserved for such a few days, so Xu Ning just stuffed it into the space.

With the last dish out of the pan, the two families sat around the dining table and started eating.

"This is Ningning's own dish again, isn't it?" Mr. Jiang looked at the seven dishes in front of him, not to mention the cold ones, but the hot ones just look appetizing.

Qin Xuejuan said to Mr. Jiang: "You have eaten the dishes I cook many times. You don't know what level it is. Compared with cooking, I really have no talent. I have studied with my mother for more than ten years. I am not as good as Ning Ning is delicious."

"Hey, don't be unconvinced by this. Some people are really talented in certain things. There is really no way to care about this." The old man picked up a chopstick of cucumber, and the taste made his eyebrows tremble, " Not bad, this little girl Ning Ning is really good at crafting, and your grandma can't keep up with you."

Xu Ning didn't think much of it. She used to work in restaurants or hotels. It's understandable that she would cook a few dishes after decades. Now the food on this table is delicious, mainly because of the ingredients.

"Grandpa Jiang likes you, so eat more."

"good."

Not only Mr. Jiang, but everyone else couldn't stop eating. The two cold dishes were especially fast, and they were empty after a while.

Seeing this, Xu Ning got up and went to the kitchen to make two more dishes and serve them.

They all thought that the food was delicious and it was Xu Ning's craftsmanship, and they didn't think about the food itself at all, and the same was true for Xie Zheng.

But Xie Zheng was still a little helpless, everyone said that to grasp a man's heart, one must first grasp a man's stomach.

He felt that if he really fell into it one day, Xu Ning's cooking skills would be the culprit.

Suddenly thinking about it this way, if Xu Ning washes his hands and makes soup for other men he doesn't know in the future, he is really not happy, but if he just put his feelings on her again like this, Xie Zheng still feels a little bit Boring, anyway, they are still young, so wait a little longer.

This feeling of being unable to swallow that breath is not very comfortable.

However, if Xu Ning was willing to chase him, Brother Zheng felt that he would feel more at ease.

After all, he loved this little girl so much in his previous life, but in the end she left him and ran away with other men.

If he wagged his tail and chased after him in this life, think about it, he would also want to save face.

How could Xu Ning know that Xie Zheng beside her had already thought so much, but she was enjoying the delicious food she made.

If she knew, she probably wouldn't do anything. After returning from the Qin family, she confessed her secret to her family, and her mood relaxed.

Now that the mother is finally pregnant with a second child, life is really getting more and more exciting. Isn't it a waste of time to focus on falling in love.

She wanted a younger brother, not because a younger sister was bad, but mainly because she cared about grandma.

Although grandma has never said anything about her grandson these years, the whole family knows that this is her old man who loves the younger generation. From the standpoint of a woman, she can't bear to criticize her mother because of her grandson. After all, she still misses him. .

The mother in the previous life was gone at this time, maybe she didn't know that she was pregnant with a child at that time, otherwise she definitely wouldn't have killed two people.

But even if the mother is sitting in front of her now, thinking that she ended her life with the child in her stomach like this in her previous life, she feels even more displeased with the Qin family in her heart.

Xie Zheng's eyes were so sharp, seeing Xu Ning looking at Qin Xuejuan's belly from time to time, he already understood in his heart.

"When you're eating, don't think about what you don't have." Put a chopstick of vegetables into Xu Ning's bowl.

Xu Ning glanced at him, "Brother Zheng said it as if he knew what I was thinking."

"What do you think?" Xie Zheng glared at her angrily. When he saw this girl for the first time, he was still a little baby drooling in sleep, and she had washed over his bed sheets several times. Don't understand?

Several adults in the family watched the interaction between the two children, with smiles that could not be concealed in their eyes.

No matter how you look at it, they are a perfect match, and they should be together in the future, otherwise it would be a pity.

After the lively dinner, Mr. Jiang and Xu Jianjun talked in the main room, Gao Xiulan took Qin Xuejuan to the old lady's room, and Xie Zheng went to Xu Ning's room as expected, took off his shoes and got on the kang.

"Let me read your new book." He lay lazily on his side on the quilt. To be honest, he ate a lot tonight, so he should go out and exercise later, otherwise he might not be able to sleep well at night.

Xu Ning brought over the heavy schoolbag and took out all the new books that were distributed in the afternoon.

"Brother Zheng is really talking, we have added an English class."

Xie Zheng hummed, "I also heard about it when the teachers in the high school were chatting. If you study hard, you will definitely need it in the future. Even if you don't need it, you won't be tired if you study a little more."

"I think so too." She pursed her lips and smiled, "It happens that my mother's English is very good, and she can teach me more when she comes back at night."

So what this girl means is that she won't ask her to make up lessons in the future?

Xie Zheng muttered in his heart, but didn't show it on his face, "If you don't understand, just ask me. Is it tiring to walk three or two steps? Third aunt is pregnant now, so you should pay more attention."

This is also the reason Xu Ning thought about. Her mother's age is also here, and it is a bit worrying to have a child in her thirties.

"Brother Zheng is still thoughtful."

It seems that his wife was very happy in his previous life, after all Xie Zheng is a person who is very good at taking care of others.

Thinking of his mother being pregnant with a child, Xu Ning couldn't stop smiling, "Brother Zheng, do you think my mother can have a younger brother or a younger sister?"

"It should be younger brother." Xie Zheng didn't know, but he just said it casually, and it didn't hinder him at all, "Or do you like younger sister more?"

"Anything is fine. I just think that grandma definitely hopes to be a grandson, although she doesn't say it." She said with emotion, "I also really hope to be a younger brother."

"Then think about it more often, maybe it will come when you look forward to it."

But Xu Ning chuckled, "I can't expect this. If my mother is a younger sister in her womb, she can't become a younger brother just because I think about it casually."

In the old lady's room, the two old men knew that Qin Xuejuan had given birth to a child, but at this moment they still wanted her to instill some things to pay attention to during pregnancy.

Qin Xuejuan also listened carefully to what the two old men were chattering about, not bothering her at all.

To be able to conceive at such an old age, in her opinion, this is really a great luck. The stomach that had not moved for more than ten years has given birth to a small life in a blink of an eye, and this child is very obedient. She didn't bother her at all, and she was really grateful.

"Juan'er is pregnant with a child, so give her better food."

"It's not a problem, she won't be at fault for what she eats." The old lady's tone was very sure. During this time, the food in their family was grown in the granddaughter's space. The old lady might not be at ease before, but looking at My piggy is obviously bigger than other people's, which means that everything in the space is good.

As for eating the same food as that of rich people, they don't have that condition, but the old lady thinks that even if she has money, she can't buy the food grown by her granddaughter, and what Qin Xuejuan eats is really the only one in the whole country. Not sure.

"Let's take advantage of a cool day and let's go to town?" Yu Chunhua said to Gao Xiulan, "I don't know where to throw the diapers that Ning Ning used back then, this time I have to buy some softer ones. "

"Okay, I haven't been to the town for a long time, and I will buy two sets of clothes for them."

"Call me if you have time, take Juan'er and let's go together."

The two families chatted until after nine o'clock in the evening, before Mr. Jiang greeted the boss and Xie Zheng to go home. Xu Ning didn't bother, and fell asleep after tidying up.

Early the next morning, Xu Jianjun hung the cucumbers and tomatoes that the old lady had prepared for him on the handlebars of the bike, and rode the 28-bar to the town government.

Their mayor's surname is Liang, who is from the town. He has been the mayor for many years. He usually seems to have a very funny personality, but when encountering certain things, his temper is quick and anxious. Of course, the mayor is very Those who are competent have never had any style problems, especially for the bad habit of receiving gifts.

This time when Xu Jianjun was promoted, Mayor Liang said a lot of good things about him. Of course, because of Xu Jianjun's excellent work ability, when Mayor Liang recommended Xu Jianjun in front of his superiors, it was effortless. After examining the time, he nodded in agreement.

In fact, Mayor Liang can decide this kind of thing, but according to Mayor Liang, Xu Jianjun is still young and has a high working ability. a good thing.

When he came to the town government, Xu Jianjun parked his bicycle in the shed and locked it, and went to the mayor's office with two bags of "gifts".

Mayor Liang is in his fifties this year, he is in good spirits, and his body is not bad. There is only one thing he can't do about it, that is, high blood lipids, which can be regarded as a disease of the rich. To avoid eating, this is exactly what Mayor Liang can't do, he has a good appetite.

"Mayor Liang." Xu Jianjun came in carrying his things, "You came so early."

Liang Jinjin was looking at the materials, when he looked up and saw Xu Jianjun coming in with his things, his face was displeased for a moment.

"Xiao Xu, what can you do with me?"

"It's nothing. The cucumbers and tomatoes grown at home have come down. Bring some to Mayor Liang to taste." Xu Jianjun is not a lump of elm. When he first saw himself coming in with his things, Mayor Liang's unhappy expression, He didn't miss it, but he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with him. After all, the things in his hand didn't cost money. I, I also know that the mayor, you never accept gifts from below, but this is not considered a bribe, is it?"

Listening to Xu Jianjun's words, Liang Jinjin's expression was completely relaxed. He was not afraid of being found out by his superiors for accepting bribes, but he didn't like this kind of unhealthy tendencies from the bottom of his heart. nothing more.

"Not counting!" Liang Jinjin stood up from the chair, twisted his waist a few times with his fingers crossed, and walked over, "Is the harvest at home okay this year?"

"Very good. This year is the first harvest in our town after the big pot. The wheat is very full. After paying the public grain, the family will not be able to eat it all in a year. When the wheat comes down next year, there will probably be a lot of surplus grain left. This point Cucumbers and tomatoes are grown in the family’s private land, and they are picked for you to taste.”

Liang Jinjin looked at the two things that Xu Jianjun put on the coffee table, and immediately said "hoo", "Your wife planted them? This looks really good, and it makes people appetite."

"My mother tidied up the private plot at home." Seeing that it was time to go to work, Xu Jianjun greeted Mayor Liang, left his things and went out, "It's time to go to work, mayor, you are busy. "

"Xiao Xu, go slowly." Liang Xian waved his hand at him, then sat down on the wooden sofa, opened the tomato plastic bag, looked at the big persimmon with the same head, and suddenly couldn't laugh or cry, "This Xiao Xu, put all the good ones together." Give it to me?"
