Chapter 523 Uncertain Return Date
Chapter 523 Uncertain Return Date
"Yes, Beichen, don't drive too fast. The road is hard to see at night. Don't let anyone rush out suddenly." Mother Fu was equally caring.
Lu Beichen felt warm in his heart, and the corner of his mouth curled up slightly as he nodded: "I know, Mom, the army will be on a mission next week, so you don't have to wait for me for dinner on Saturday night. I'm not sure when I'll be back."
"You're going on a mission next week? Why so sudden? Why didn't you tell us before... so we could prepare some food for you to take away."
Both Fu's mother and Lu's mother were slightly stunned. Now he had to rush back to the army, and it would take a lot of time to do it temporarily. There was no time at all.
"Today is a special day, and I don't want other things to affect your mood. Mom, it's easy to buy things outside now, so it doesn't have to be so troublesome."
Tian Youhua came forward and said, "I still have some of the rice sauce I made earlier. Take it to Beichen first. It's already this late, Xiaoci and Lingling shouldn't go back to school tonight. I'll make some more sauce and bring it to school tomorrow morning."
Mother Lu thought it made sense and nodded, "Okay, you and Aunt Wen go help install it."
"Okay, let's go now." Then he pulled Aunt Wen away.
Yuan Chenghua walked up to Lu Beichen, patted his shoulder and reminded him warmly: "Be careful."
"I will, Mr. Yuan."
"Well, I'll go in first."
This was the first time Mr. Qu and his wife came to the Lu residence and heard that Lu Beichen was going on a mission. It was very dangerous for soldiers to go on missions, and they might lose their lives outside. Although they had only been there for a short time, they had already regarded themselves as part of the family, and their eyes were full of worry for Lu Beichen.
"Beichen, no matter how big or small the mission is, you must never slack off. Out there, everything depends on your own life. Only when people are there can we better dedicate ourselves to the motherland."
"Thank you for your guidance, Mr. Qu. I will."
"You two must have something else to say, so we won't disturb you and will go in first."
"Dad, when will you come back?" Yueyue was reluctant to leave.
"The exact time is not yet determined, but Dad will be back as soon as possible. When Dad comes back, I'll take you out to play, okay?"
Sanbao nodded in unison: "Okay, let's wait for Dad to come back."
After everyone said goodbye to Lu Beichen, only Fu Ling and him were left at the door.
"Haha, is there anything you want to tell me? Please make some space for us. We can't let you down." Fu Ling said playfully.
"I have so many things to say to you, and I want to carry you in my pocket."
"You're just being ridiculous. We're not like before. You can contact me anytime. As usual, bring back some local specialties."
"As you wish." Lu Beichen's eyes were filled with love. He leaned closer to Fu Ling and asked softly, "Wife, can you accompany me tonight?"
Fu Ling glared at him and said, "Can't you be more restrained? I already satisfied you this morning. No, you have to get a good rest tonight and don't come back. I have to get up early tomorrow morning and rush back to school to listen to the first gossip song."
"Huh? Gossip?" Lu Beichen was puzzled.
"They should be back from the island. It's naturally about the love story between Tiantian and Brother Chenyang after they meet. I can't wait any longer. Please don't disturb my rest at night."
Lu Beichen touched his nose and thought, forget it, he was destined not to eat meat tonight. If he angered his wife, he would be the one to suffer in the end.
It didn't take long before Aunt Wen and Tian Youhua each came with a bag full of bottles and jars.
"Beichen, here are two. Your mother wanted you to keep one bag for yourself and give the remaining bag to your comrades on the mission. They are all packed for you. The one in this black bag is yours."
"Okay, thank you. I'll be leaving now."
Fu Ling and the other two watched Lu Beichen drive away before turning around and going back inside.
We came back a little late, so dinner was not that fancy. Each person had a bowl of seafood noodles with some homemade secret pickles.
"Xiaotian, these noodles are good. Give me another bowl tomorrow morning." Yuan Chenghua was still not satisfied after finishing the meal. He usually ate buns with porridge, or pancakes with chicken soup in the morning. It was rare for him to eat such vegetarian noodles, but they were unexpectedly delicious.
"Okay, does anyone want to eat noodles tomorrow morning?" Tian Youhua asked everyone.
"Auntie Tian, then count me in." Maybe because he had eaten too much greasy food during the day, Lu Beifeng was also conquered by this bowl of vegetarian noodles.
"I also have Aunt Tian!" Lu Wanning said with a smile.
Almost half of the people in the room chose to eat noodles. Seeing this, Mother Lu said, "Let's all eat noodles tomorrow morning. We have chicken at home, so we can make chicken soup and make chicken noodles."
Mother Lu's words were unanimously approved by everyone.
I don’t know if it’s because they played too crazy outside today, but the children, including Lu Nianci, said very little. They started dozing off during meals and their heads almost fell into the bowls several times.
After giving the three babies a quick bath, they didn't need anyone to coax them. The three children fell asleep in the bed in seconds. Fu Ling shook his head and chuckled, then kissed each of the three babies on the cheek.
At four o'clock in the morning, Fu Ling was sleeping soundly when someone knocked on the door. He slowly opened his eyes and his first reaction was to plug his ears and continue sleeping.
After regaining consciousness, Fu Ling finally heard who was outside the door: "... Get up quickly, you will be late for school if you don't get up soon, do you hear me?... Get up quickly." Fu's mother knocked on the door and shouted inside.
Hearing it was Fu Ma's voice, Fu Ling reluctantly got up from the bed: "Get up, Mom."
Mother Fu heard a voice coming from inside the house and complained, "Finally you woke up. I called you for ten minutes and you didn't respond. You were such a deep sleeper."
"Mom, go ahead and do your work. I'll be up right away."
"No, Mom will wait here until I go out today. Don't lie down and fall asleep again." Mother Fu was determined not to leave, completely stopping Fu Ling's idea of taking a nap.
When Fu Ling came out, he had a lot of oil hanging from his mouth.
"Oh, you're still feeling wronged. If I didn't call you, you would definitely be late for school. Xiaoci and the other kids would have woken up long ago without being called, but you were sleeping so soundly that no matter how much I called, I couldn't wake you up."
"I was wrong!" Fu Ling didn't want to listen to Fu Ma's nagging anymore and immediately admitted his mistake.
Seeing her sincere attitude in admitting her mistake, Fu Ma didn't know what to say anymore. She glared at her and urged, "Okay, go wash up quickly. I'll ask Auntie Tian to make you some noodles. You can come over and eat them later."
"As you wish, mother."
"You are so naughty, go now." Mother Fu raised the corners of her mouth, her eyes full of love for her daughter.
Fu Ling is certainly not an ungrateful person. Normally, no one would call her no matter how late she sleeps, and this morning was a special case.
When she arrived at the main room, the table was already full of people, almost everyone was there except Sanbao.
"Good morning, second brother's wife!" Lu Beifeng greeted Fu Ling.
