The wife took the baby to live with the military commander, and the commander washed diapers every d

Sister-in-law Lu couldn't refuse her, and she knew that she was thanking her for helping her take care of the child.

She said, "Then you can't buy it next time, or I won't help you take care of the child."

"Okay, I got it."

"By the way, sister-in-law, I heard from Chuncao that you can knit sweaters?"

Thinking about this, she asked the question.

"Yes, what's wrong? You want to learn?"

"Yes, I bought some yarn and would like to ask Sister Lu how to knit."

"That's easy. Just bring some yarn to me tomorrow, and I'll teach you."

She's very skilled at knitting sweaters; she knits most of the sweaters for her children, her husband, and herself.

She knows many knitting techniques, and whether it's knitting sweaters or making clothes, she's the best in the family compound.

The women in the family compound who didn't know how to make it would come to me with fabric.

"Okay, then I'll come and bother you tomorrow, sister-in-law," Shen Jingyue said with a smile.

"It's no big deal, come on over. I don't have anything to do right now anyway. If you come over and I knit a sweater for you, it'll help me pass the time."

"Okay, then it's settled."

"I won't bother you any longer, I'll take the child and go home now."

"Okay, go ahead."

Shen Jingyue picked up the child, who was still sleeping soundly, and carried him back home.

Not long after they got home, little Xiao Beichen woke up.

When she opened her eyes and saw her mother, her little mouth twitched, and she burst into tears, feeling wronged.

Shen Jingyue spent a long time coaxing the child before she finally calmed him down.

Perhaps because he hadn't seen his mother all day, Xiao Beichen kept wanting his mother to hold him. If she let go, he would cry and fuss, his little hands tightly wrapped around her neck, refusing to let go.

Shen Jingyue also felt sorry for the child, so she kept holding him.

She didn't cook dinner that night, waiting for Qin Xiang'an to get off work.

When Qin Xiang'an came home from get off work, he saw his wife sitting in the yard holding their child.

"You're back."

"Dinner hasn't been made yet. Why don't you go to the cafeteria and get some food?"

"No need, there are still vegetables in the kitchen, I'll cook them later."

He went to his wife and asked, "Did the trip to the county go smoothly today?"

"Yeah, it's fine, except I encountered a thief on the way and I helped him out."

Even if she doesn't say anything, Sister-in-law Lu knows, and he'll definitely find out tomorrow, so there's nothing to hide.

"Thief, are you alright?" Qin Xiang'an was also a little nervous.

"It's alright, the thief has been caught, don't worry." Shen Jingyue gave him a reassuring look.

"If you encounter something like this in the future, try to stay away from it as much as possible. Protecting yourself is the most important thing," he carefully advised.

"I know, this kind of thing doesn't happen often, don't worry."

"Go and cook, I'm hungry."

She ate a bowl of wontons for lunch today, and it's all digested by now. She's hungry again.

"I'll go right away."

Qin Xiang'an took off his coat and went into the kitchen.

Soon, wisps of smoke began to rise from the kitchen chimney.

The next morning, Shen Jingyue took the yarn and her child to Sister-in-law Lu's house.

Sister-in-law Lu showed her the sweater she had knitted last year and asked her what kind she liked so she could knit one herself.

Shen Jingyue glanced at it and saw that Sister-in-law Lu's clothes were red and were a fitted sweater with several different knitting techniques.

The knitting technique is good, it looks nice, but she wants a looser sweater, not one that's so fitted.

She explained her request to Sister-in-law Lu, and Sister-in-law Lu understood.

"No problem. If you don't want body shaping, we can do a dozen more needles and increase the amount."

Sister-in-law Lu began to teach her how to start and finish the needlework.

It was all rather slow at first, but fortunately, Shen Jingyue was quite capable with her hands, and after a few lessons, she got it.

It was a bit slow at first, but once I got used to it, I was able to catch up.

She spent most of the day knitting sweaters at Sister Lu's house.

After Sister-in-law Lu taught her, she cut cloth and made clothes for Chuncao.

I would come over to check on her from time to time, and sometimes when I saw that she had made a mistake in her knitting, I would come over and correct her knitting method.

The whole day passed just like that.

Soon it arrived that day for them to return to Haishi.

She had already told Sister-in-law Lu to come over and feed the chickens, and she also sent her a bag of peach crisps.

These arrangements had been made the day before, and Sister-in-law Lu had also been given the key to the gate of her courtyard.

Qin Xiang'an arranged for the military vehicles to take them to the train station. It was fortunate that the military didn't have anything urgent to do, otherwise they would have had to take the purchasing trucks.

Because Qin Xiang'an was a soldier, he easily bought a sleeper ticket on the train.

There is only one lower bunk and one middle bunk.

But this is good too.

Qin Xiang'an held the child in one arm and protected his wife with the other, letting her walk in front. Shen Jingyue carried a large bag and a small bag, which were mostly filled with the child's belongings.

There were quite a few people in the sleeper car, and because of the summer heat, the car smelled rather unpleasant.

What a smell of sweat! The stench of those stinky feet is really hard to stand.

Fortunately, I found my spot quickly. The smell here wasn't as strong, but it wasn't great either.

They sat down under their bunks.

Little Xiao Beichen must have smelled the unpleasant odor in the carriage, because he kept burying his face in his father's arms, his little brows furrowed tightly.

After Shen Jingyue sat down, she saw her son's expression and was amused by his adorable face.

"You little rascal, you even know how to snuggle into your dad's arms."

Upon seeing his mother, little Xiao Beichen stretched out his little arms, clearly wanting his mother to hold him.

"He's young, but not stupid."

Qin Xiang'an smiled; he had noticed his son's adorable face as soon as he boarded the train.

He was secretly very pleased with himself, thinking that his son was indeed clever.

Shen Jingyue smiled and hugged him.

When Xiao Beichen was in his mother's arms, his little face was still nestled against her chest.

Qin Xiang'an stuffed the large bag under the bed.

Only a small bag remained on top.

They have windows here, and the windows are open, but the train hasn't left yet, so even with the windows open, the smell is still a bit unpleasant.

Fortunately, once the train started moving, a breeze blew in, which made things much better.

Little Xiao Beichen no longer buries his face in his mother's chest.

Instead, he turned his head and looked curiously out the window.

Shen Jingyue was worried that the wind was too strong and would make the child catch a cold, so she closed the window a little to reduce the wind.

It was at this moment that the old man in the lower bunk across from them returned.

As soon as he entered, he noticed that someone had come to the lower bunk opposite him.

He immediately spotted the chubby baby in Shen Jingyue's arms.

"Wow, this baby is really pretty."

"Thank you," Shen Jingyue said with a polite smile.
