Chapter 345 Commander Huo's Response
Chapter 345 Commander Huo's Response
There was a lot of noise at Ye Shu's house, which attracted the surrounding neighbors to come and watch the fun.
But they are all military families, and their ideological awareness and vision are higher than others.
When they saw that all the cars parked in front of Ye Shu's house were green jeeps, their curiosity faded and their pace slowed down.
When they saw Commander Zhao and Political Commissar Wu respectfully and modestly escorting a slightly older man into Ye Shu's yard, they had some guesses.
When they last saw the guards around them, they all stopped, looked from a distance, and after being driven away by the guards, they all retreated.
Only Mrs. Jin was left pushing the three little ones, not knowing whether to go forward or retreat.
At this moment, Xiao Gao came out of Ye Shu's yard and walked towards her: "Sister-in-law, just leave the children to me."
Mrs. Jin handed the stroller to him.
When the three little ones were pushed into the yard, Old Huo came out of the house and said, "Don't come in, don't come in. It's very smoky!"
Then he went to greet the three little babies with great enthusiasm and love.
When the three little ones left the capital, they were still very young, only a few months old.
Logically speaking, a baby this young should have no memory.
But bloodline and blood relationship are so magical.
Guaiguai hesitated for just a moment, then immediately clapped his hands excitedly and shouted "Ahhh".
Then he looked at Ye Shu and called her "Mom" excitedly!
Ye Shu understood that she was telling herself that she knew the man in front of her was her grandfather!
So I quickly took the opportunity to teach her how to address people: "Dear, this is grandpa, call grandpa."
Guaiguai called out crisply, "Grandpa!"
Ye Shu then taught the second and third children behind him: "Qi'er and Lin'er, call me grandpa."
Two identical boys shouted in unison: "Grandpa!"
Old Huo laughed heartily and reached out to pick up Guaiguai: "Okay, okay, our Guaiguai is really smart! Qilin'er is also very good! Grandpa will give you red envelopes!"
Old Huo was very happy and his voice of praise was very loud. Anyone who lived nearby could hear it.
After being praised, regardless of whether they understood the specific meaning or not, the three little ones became very popular and started laughing.
A child's smile is very contagious.
Ye Shu looked at the four generations of grandparents and grandchildren having fun together, and for a moment he forgot the worries in his heart.
Old Huo actually took out three big red envelopes and stuffed them into the children's hands.
Ye Shu quickly refused, but ended up being stuffed with a red envelope herself:
"Smoked meat is a good thing, very delicious. I haven't tasted it in years! Come to think of it, it was when we won the battle that year that I had it by chance!"
"This thing is not easy to make! When we wanted to eat it, we saved a piece of meat and asked the villagers to help make it, but when it was finally done..."
No one is left...
Thinking of the wars in the past when he had to rush around and conduct raids almost every day, and recalling the scenes of his comrades leaving one by one, Lao Huo couldn't help but burst into tears.
He resolutely stuffed the red envelope into Ye Shu's hands and said, "Now that conditions permit, if you can do it, do more and let us old guys have a taste of what it was like back then!"
In this case, Ye Shu had no choice but to accept it.
Her father-in-law was immersed in sadness, so it was not appropriate for her to bring up the children's red envelopes at this time, otherwise it would seem too tactless.
Besides, this is his gift to the children as a grandfather, so just accept it.
After Old Huo finished speaking, Division Commander Zhao immediately expressed his opinion: "I'll ask my family to buy some meat later. While Comrade Ye Shu is cooking, we can smoke some together."
Political Commissar Wu also expressed his willingness to do so.
Lao Huo quickly waved his hands: "If you want to do it, do it yourself, don't bother Xiao Ye!"
"Also, as leaders, you must promote thrift and diligence!"
Commander Zhao and Political Commissar Wu nodded repeatedly. Mrs. Jin and Zhuang Jingjing from next door had not yet entered the house. After hearing these words, they couldn't help but feel secretly shocked.
He thought to himself: As expected of a commander! As soon as he arrived, he guessed that Ye Shu's bacon and smoked meat would be too conspicuous and others would definitely have opinions. So he first recalled the good times and said that he also wanted to taste the flavor that he didn't have time to taste during the hard times of the war! Then he paid for Ye Shu to help make more.
When Commander Zhao and Political Commissar Wu were about to do it, he reminded them not to trouble his daughter-in-law with their own affairs, and warned them that as leaders they should not be extravagant!
Tsk tsk tsk, he not only protected his own family, but also reminded others, and he did it just right, taking a roundabout way!
No wonder he can become the commander!
It’s really not something that ordinary people like them can compare to!
Let’s see who dares to talk about Ye Shu’s smoked bacon again. Even if you have an opinion, you have to keep it to yourself!
Commander Zhao and Political Commissar Wu understood what Mr. Huo meant, so they didn't mention it again.
After this incident, Ye Shu saw something clearly. Doesn't her father-in-law look like he is being monitored or supervised?
So I secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Old Huo teased Guaiguai, the second and third children for a while, then suggested going back to the dormitory.
Only then did Ye Shu realize that her father-in-law came to Island No. 3, but did not live at home.
He was also assigned a separate small courtyard in the staff housing complex, which was a separate two-room bungalow near the kindergarten.
It used to be a warehouse where furniture and wood for the family compound were stored.
It has been cleared out now and given to Lao Huo to live in.
There are also two invisible guards who live with him.
Ye Shu was wondering whether he should let Lao Huo live in his house?
Now it seems that this must have been arranged by them long ago, so she won't interrupt.
She brought the three little ones with her and followed Commander Zhao and the others to send Old Huo to his residence. When they were parting, Commander Zhao and Political Commissar Wu invited Old Huo to dinner with them.
Old Huo refused directly: "No, I'm exhausted from the journey and I just want to rest. I'll just eat something in the cafeteria at noon."
"Xiaoye and I will have dinner with the children, so we won't bother you anymore. You can go do whatever you need to do. From now on, I'll just be an old man taking care of the children on this island. Just leave me alone!"
After sending Division Commander Zhao and Political Commissar Wu away, Old Huo waved to Ye Shu, "Go back! The kids must be tired, right? Let them go back to sleep. When they wake up from their nap, bring them over to me and I'll take care of them."
He really integrated into the character of going to the island to help his son and daughter-in-law take care of the children.
But Ye Shu felt it was very mysterious and something seemed wrong.
But when she saw that Old Huo was still cheerful and relaxed, and that Commander Zhao and the others were still respectful to him, she had no choice but to suppress her worries and continue doing what she had to do.
As the children grew older, they slept less during the day and would not go to bed until 11 o'clock in the morning. Ye Shu would feed them some rice soup before they went to bed.
After they woke up and finished a bottle of milk, Ye Shu sent them to Lao Huo.
From then on, Sanxiao had someone to take care of him, and Ye Shu could devote himself to his studies.
