Chapter 261 I will definitely come back next year!
Lu Hongli and Lu Hongjuan grew up with Grandma Lu and have a deep affection for their grandparents. In the past ten years since they got married, they would take time to go back to the compound several times a year. They would also call their grandparents every few days to show their concern for them. Now that both of them have been transferred to Liaocheng for work, they would go back once or twice a month.
"Grandma, has Hongxuan called to say when he will be home?" Lu Hongli asked Grandma Lu.
When Grandma Lu heard her granddaughter asking her, she smiled and shook her head. "I will definitely come back next year!"
Lu Hongli and Lu Hongjuan are two years apart, and Lu Hongjuan is four years older than Lu Hongxuan. They feel sorry for this younger brother. In the past, their parents worked away from home, and when Lu Hongli and Lu Hongjuan were young, they lived in the compound with Lu Hongxuan. The relationship between the three siblings is still very good.
"Grandma, you are smiling so happily. Is there any good news?" Lu Hongjuan saw that her grandmother was smiling more than usual.
"Your return is a happy occasion! Don't you like bacon and sausage? Your brother sent some back! Let's have a good meal at noon today!" Grandma Lu naturally wouldn't say why she was happy. She smiled and changed the subject.
"When did Hongxuan become so considerate? I have only received yak meat a few times in the past few years! Nothing else!" Lu Hongjuan was surprised when she heard her grandmother say that her brother had sent bacon and sausages back.
"Hongxuan sent bacon and sausages back?" Lu Hongli was also a little surprised. Her brother usually devoted himself to work and rarely spoke. When she and her sister talked to him on the phone, they could only talk for a few minutes.
"Yes! There are several big boxes! You can take some back when you go back!" Grandma Lu said with a smile.
"It's really rare! This kid actually knew to send these things back! Were they bought locally?" Lu Hongjuan said with a smile. "You can't buy such good things!" Grandma Lu quickly denied.
"Did he do it himself? He doesn't look like the type of person who would do these things!" Lu Hongjuan looked unconvinced. Didn't she know that this was her own brother?
"Juan'er is right! Hongxuan would never make these things!" Lu Hongli didn't believe that her brother made them. "Maybe Hongxuan bought them and asked his sisters-in-law to make them! Every Chinese New Year, the military wives in Xiangcheng and Rongcheng would make a lot of these things. In our family compound, some sisters-in-law are planning to make New Year's goods." Lu Hongli knew that her grandparents liked to eat them, so she planned to ask other sisters-in-law to help make some.
"There are sisters-in-law in our courtyard who are also making these things!" Lu Hongjuan also agreed. "I don't know how to make this! Plus it's dirty, so I don't want to do it! But I told my sisters-in-law to help me make some. I'll bring it back to you after it's done in a few days!" Lu Hongjuan really didn't know how to make it, and she was afraid that it wouldn't taste good, plus it was too troublesome to make this thing, so she asked other military wives to help her make some when they were cooking.
"You are so thoughtful!" Grandma Lu listened to her granddaughter's words and nodded with a smile.
"Grandma, I heard that my mom picked another one for Hongxuan?" Lu Hongjuan said. "My mom has picked so many, but Hongxuan doesn't like any of them. Why is she still going through all this trouble?"
"Hongjuan!" Hongli heard her sister's dissatisfaction and called her.
