"Come on, honey, let's go home and eat first. Mom said you haven't eaten yet. How can that be? Have something to eat first, and then we'll go out for a walk as a family. I'll take you, Mom, and Guoyao to get familiar with the area."

Fu Linchuan took Su Lingwu's hand and walked back.

Many military wives were watching them along the way.

"Look at them, they're newly married, they even have to hold hands when they walk."

"Didn't you see how much Commander Fu dotes on his wife? He practically feeds her! Yesterday, when we were moving furniture, I saw with my own eyes that Commander Fu specially brought out a stool for his wife so she could sit in the house and not do any work. Why aren't we as lucky as him!"

Who wouldn't be envious if they saw it?

"Oh well, we're not destined for that in this life. Hopefully, we'll be reborn into a better family in the next!"

"You two are back."

Xu Meili and her son pulled up all the weeds in the yard and turned over the soil with hoes.

"Mom, you don't need to do these chores. From now on, I'll take care of all the work in the fields." Fu Linchuan took the hoe from his mother-in-law's hand and pushed her into the house to wash her face.

It's so hot, my face is all sunburned.

He invited his mother-in-law over mainly to help take care of his wife, not to have her do hard labor.

"Mom's just sitting around doing nothing anyway, so doing some chores is like getting some exercise. It's nothing, you still have to train, which is so tiring. Mom can do this little bit of work."

Xu Meili brought her son over, and all the expenses were covered by her son-in-law. How could she just enjoy the benefits without doing any work?

Moreover, she doesn't feel tired at all when helping her daughter with chores; on the contrary, she feels very at ease, knowing that she is still useful.

"Mom, you work so hard cooking and cleaning the house, so leave all the chores in the yard to me."

"Mom, you and Guoyao should get ready too. After Lingwu finishes eating, let's go out for a walk together, see what we can buy, and get familiar with the surroundings."

"Okay, sure."

Xu Meili took her son back to the house to change his clothes, taking off the clothes he had been wearing for work.

Su Lingwu hurriedly drank two mouthfuls of porridge, then coughed.

"Drink slowly, no rush." ​​Fu Linchuan took the bowl from him.

He pressed her into a chair and sat down himself, then picked up a piece of food and fed it to Su Lingwu.

Su Lingwu glanced around and saw that her mother and Guoyao were inside the house before she opened her mouth.

Fu Linchuan fed his wife a bite of vegetables, a bite of egg, and then a bite of porridge.

There was still some food left in the bowl. Su Lingwu shook her head. "I'm not eating anymore. I need to save room for lunch."

Fu Linchuan didn't hesitate at all and ate all the remaining food in his bowl.

Seeing his wife's surprised expression, he couldn't help but lean forward and kiss her soft lips.

"Let's change our clothes and head out."

"Honey, take more money with you. I already asked my comrade to help me get some materials. I think we can bring them back today. I'll clean up the toilet when I have some free time these next few days."

Fu Linchuan didn't need Su Lingwu to remind him what to do. He was worried that it would be inconvenient for his wife to use the toilet in late pregnancy, so he wanted to rebuild the toilet.

This place is too rudimentary. It doesn't bother him, a grown man, but it's too much of a hardship for his wife and mother-in-law.

Su Lingwu's eyes lit up. "Really!"

Fu Linchuan gently stroked Su Lingwu's hair. "Although it can't compare to the one in Beijing, I don't want to feel too wronged. Luckily, I know a comrade-in-arms who works at a building materials factory. I'll have him help me get some materials. Your husband will definitely make you a comfortable toilet."

Fu Linchuan thought of everything in advance, from clothing and food to housing and transportation, so as not to cause Su Lingwu any trouble.

Overwhelmed with excitement, Su Lingwu hugged Fu Linchuan tightly, clinging to his neck. "Honey, you're so wonderful!"

Su Lingwu adapted well to everything else, but going to the toilet was a different story – it's easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.

Modern toilets are all clean, but coming here, I have to mentally prepare myself every time I need to use the toilet.

Go in holding your breath, and come out as soon as possible.

Be careful!

Fu Linchuan hugged Su Lingwu's waist, supporting her, a smile he couldn't hide on his lips.

"Within my ability, I will naturally give you the best; if it's beyond my ability, I will still try my best to make your life better."

Fu Linchuan had already spoken to the political commissar. He wanted to rebuild the toilets, and he would pay for all the materials himself. He had also told the political commissar about his wife's pregnancy. He would not let his wife go during the voluntary labor, and he would help her when he came back.

The political commissar also knew that Fu Linchuan was already twenty-eight years old when he got married and had children. Other people his age already had children old enough to run errands, so naturally they needed to take better care of him.

This is the great-grandson of the Fu family, he's very important.

There's no one who disagrees.

Fu Linchuan kissed Su Lingwu's face several times; his wife smelled so good.

"Let's go, don't keep Mom waiting."

He carried the person back to his room to change clothes.

Xu Meili and Zhao Guoyao stayed inside the house. Xu Meili told Zhao Guoyao that when his brother-in-law came back, he should not go into his sister and brother-in-law's house or wander around, so as not to disturb the young couple's sweet daily life.

We've all been through this, how could we not know what's going on?

Zhao Guoyao was also very obedient. When his brother-in-law was home, he didn't run around or go into his sister's room.

"Mom, Guoyao, let's go."

Along the way, Fu Linchuan introduced them to the situation in the compound, where the hospital was, where the clinic was, where the military service center was, where the movie theater was, where the public bathhouse was, and where the barbershop was.

Zhao Guoyao realized that being a soldier was great; the military took care of everything, and he looked at his brother-in-law with admiration.

The family of four entered the city in a logistics procurement vehicle.

Fu Linchuan first picked up the package, then bought the sewing machine his wife wanted, and finally contacted his comrades to see if they had gotten the items.

Su Lingwu and Xu Meili strolled around the department store with Zhao Guoyao.

"Mom, let's go look at some clothes over there. You don't have many clothes, so we can buy you and Guoyao a couple of outfits."

"Oh, why buy anything? Guoyao and I have clothes to wear. Keep the cloth coupons and buy clothes for the kids later."

"He's still in my belly, a tiny little one. What clothes do you want him to wear? I'll buy them for you first. I have plenty of clothes. I bought a lot when I went to Beijing last time. Let me show you both."

Su Lingwu pulled Xu Meili and Zhao Guoyao toward the clothing store.

"Xiao Wu'er, why don't we buy some fabric and make it ourselves? Didn't you ask your son-in-law to buy a sewing machine? It's much more cost-effective for us to make it at home!"

When Xu Meili saw that her daughter insisted on buying clothes for her and her son, she suggested that they buy fabric and make them themselves.

"We'll buy some fabric and look at some clothes. It's alright, we have enough fabric coupons. Grandma and my mother-in-law gave me a lot."

Su Lingwu patted her pocket to reassure Xu Meili.

"Mom, do you think this looks good?"

"This is the one I saw first!" The clothes in her hand were tugged at.

Su Lingwu immediately pulled him back and looked at the person who came in, "You saw it first, how did it end up in my hands?"

"First come, first served, you know? What I got first is mine."

"I've never heard of that. When buying clothes, it's a race to see who sees them first. Why can't others buy them just because you look and don't buy them?"

"I saw a lot more, including these and those; I saw them first."

No way you can take anything from Su Lingwu!

"you!"
