Dressed up as a Real Mom

Chapter 46: Thoughtful

In the second half of the twelfth lunar month, Lao Zhao and Li Xijin took their children back to their hometown for vacation.

Lao Zhao is the deputy commander of the third battalion and a subordinate of Wei Jianwei. As the commanders of the third battalion, the two can't take a vacation at the same time. For many years, Wei Jianwei has chosen to go home during the spring sowing.

Although it's approaching the end of the year, the family building isn't as lively as it used to be because of several cadres on vacation. Fortunately, Lao Wang's family isn't ready to leave yet, otherwise, He Xiaoyun will definitely be bored.

This was her first year in the army, and it was also the first time for their family of three to celebrate the New Year alone. In any case, it shouldn't be too sloppy. Although the snow outside has not melted yet, He Xiaoyun chose a day with the sun up high to go to the streets with Xu Lanxiang to buy new year's goods.

The two of them tightly wrapped themselves up and didn't take any children, striving for quick buys.

"Are you and Lao Wang going back to visit your relatives after the beginning of spring?" He Xiaoyun asked Xu Lanxiang.

It was too cold, and the breath that Xiaoyun exhaled became a white mist, which was blown by the wind.

Xu Lanxiang shook her head, shrank her neck, and buried half of her face under the scarf, "Lao Wang's family has many brothers, and we have been separated from them a few years ago. The room originally allocated to us was put aside by them because we're not at home. Our room became their public warehouse and since we didn't have a place to stay, we simply don't go back these past two years."

He Xiaoyun is not so naive to think that all families in the world are brothers and sisters(amiable), and their parents, kind. Even if siblings have good relationships when they were young, they will gradually become alienated and slowly focus on their own small family.

"What about you?" Xu Lanxiang asked her, "Don't be upset when I say this but I remember that there are several brothers in Old Wei's family, do they still live together?"

"They all still live together." He Xiaoyun answered.

Xu Lanxiang smiled and said, "If your family is all together, it's natural to be lively. But if all of your family do is quarrel every day, it's better to be separated."

He Xiaoyun suddenly remembered the plot of the book. She remembered that the Wei family was also separated, and the initiator was this body's original owner. The cause is when the original owner saw Feng Qiuyue give birth to a daughter, she thought that her first sister-in-law couldn't compare with her birthing a son, so she was emboldened to split from the family.

Now that He Xiaoyun has become the original owner, as long as she doesn't make trouble, the family will naturally be harmonious.

Thinking of this, He Xiaoyun suddenly felt a little funny. When other transmigrators traveled through, they need to fight with their wits all day long. Her situation was good, and she can become the best of herself.

He Xiaoyun is buying the New Year's goods for the first time as she learned from Xu Lanxiang, she bought a few catties of pork, a chicken, a plate of tofu, two fishes, some dried shiitake mushrooms, dried fungus, and other dry goods, as well as melon seeds, peanuts, and pine nuts. He Xiaoyun also bought two bottles of canned fruit, as well as sweets and biscuits as snacks. In addition, there are some miscellaneous things bought too.

With so many things in hand, He Xiaoyun was so tired that she said up straight: "I knew it. We should have let Jianwei and Lao Wang come out to buy today, let's be lazy."
