Chapter 54: There is nothing wrong in liking sons, but how can you not treat your daughters as child
"I'm not really good at cooking, but I want to make something delicious for my brother Jun. He trains in the army every day and has lost a lot of weight!" Liu Xiaoyan and her husband have been married for only about half a year.
She joined the army just a month ago.
There are no children at home, and her daily duties include cooking and cleaning. Recently, she is preparing to find a job in the military.
I haven't found anything suitable yet, so I can only stay at home for now.
Her cooking is not very good, her husband doesn't mind, but she wants to improve her cooking skills.
"Put the tomatoes and potatoes in the pot and fry them, then boil them in water until they are soft. Then put the beef in and simmer for a few more hours." Song Zhiya simply stated the steps, and seeing that Liu Xiaoyan didn't understand, she explained them in detail.
Liu Xiaoyan understood what was said, and so did the other military wives nearby. However, when they heard that so many seasonings would be needed, they felt heartbroken.
"With so many seasonings, everything I cook will surely taste delicious!"
"I also think it's a bit too extravagant!"
“Can you use less seasoning?”
“So this is the secret to delicious food!”
The military wives were talking nearby.
Song Zhiya didn't know what to say, so she just smiled.
"Xiao Ya is just telling you what to do. Whether you want to do it or not is your business!" An older military wife stood up. She was the chief of staff's wife.
I am quite popular in the family compound because people there are easy to get along with.
"That's right, Sister Zhao," Song Zhiya immediately followed up on Zhao Yulan. "I pay a little more attention to this aspect, so I use a little more seasoning. Actually, the taste wouldn't be much different with a little less seasoning."
“Everyone can do what they want to do, and if they don’t want to do it, they don’t have to do it!”
With Zhao Yulan speaking here, the other military wives had nothing to say.
After buying the groceries, we went back together.
The children were playing in the yard of the staff housing complex. When they saw them come back, they all rushed over here.
The children were busy and sweating.
"mom!"
A child ran over from a distance and threw himself directly into the arms of a middle-aged woman, "Tuanzi's clothes are so beautiful, Mom, buy some for me too!"
Tuanzi is wearing a blue and white shirt today, black pants and a pair of black leather shoes, looking like a little gentleman.
Among all the children, he was indeed the best dressed.
If one child wants it, the other children will want it too.
But when those military wives saw the clothes Tuanzi was wearing, they knew that they were of very good quality and must be very expensive. They were too embarrassed to even open their mouths to ask Song Zhiya.
Song Zhiya touched her head.
These clothes were bought for Tuanzi by Lu Fanghua and the Song couple when they were at home.
The Song family is well off, so Liu Qingyu always buys the best clothes.
Although Lu Fanghua didn't have much money, she never treated her children badly and bought the best things for Tuanzi, so of course the quality was good.
She couldn't find one of poor quality.
"Xiaoya's child is wearing really nice clothes!" Liu Xiaoyan saw the awkward atmosphere. "Deputy Commander Lu is alone in the army. He must send more money back to the child. He only has one child. How can he not take good care of him?"
When this was said, everyone felt that there was nothing wrong with it.
After all, the deputy head's salary is indeed quite high, and his family only has one child, unlike them, who have three or four children.
But can't we just keep it as is?
"Our family is well off, and his grandparents dote on him a little." Song Zhiya also said this, and everyone stopped thinking about it.
They talked and laughed and then started chatting about other topics.
Song Zhiya looked at Liu Xiaoyan gratefully and smiled.
When the other children heard that Tuanzi's clothes were a bit expensive, they stopped thinking about it and just asked their mothers to buy them some candies later.
But the little stone who ran over first kept tugging at his mother's sleeve, "Mom, didn't you say that everyone can have whatever they want, and the same goes for me? I'm the only child in our family, right?"
“Why don’t you buy it for me?”
Shitou became more and more unhappy as he spoke, and he sat on the ground and started crying loudly. When the other military wives saw this, they couldn't help but grumble.
"Doesn't he have two daughters at home?"
"I heard that she has always favored boys over girls at home. In her eyes, the two daughters are not even children."
"That's not okay. There's nothing wrong with liking a son, but how can you not treat a daughter as a child?"
"that is!"
……
Everyone was chattering, and Song Zhiya also heard something.
"You kid!"
This woman is the wife of Captain Qian, the one who spoke to Song Zhiya on the day she first arrived.
When she heard the child say this, she immediately patted the child and glanced back involuntarily.
The chief of staff's wife is still there, what nonsense is this kid talking about?
"What's wrong with me? Why are you hitting me?!"
"Believe it or not, I'll go back and tell grandma, and she'll beat you to death!"
Shi Tou was hit and it hurt so much that he started yelling curse words.
"What did I say wrong? I'm the only child in the family. My two sisters are nothing. They have to be married off to earn money for me to marry a wife!"
Xiao Shitou's voice became louder and louder, and the expressions of the military wives who were listening nearby changed.
They have sons and daughters in their family, but they have never said such words.
When Wang Aihua heard her son say this and the other military wives around him were talking about it, she became a little worried.
Her husband had told her before that she must never talk nonsense in public, in case the wives of the chief of staff or other high-ranking officers heard her.
If he goes back and whispers something in his ear, he'll be finished!
"You kid, keep talking nonsense!" Wang Aihua was really scared, so she raised her hand and slapped her son on the butt a few times.
The child suddenly burst into tears!
Those who couldn't stand it stepped forward to help.
Wang Aihua was afraid that these words would reach the ears of her leader, so she grabbed her son's butt hard with one hand and gave him a slap.
Little Shitou was beaten so hard that his whole body was in pain. He screamed and cursed, and even kicked the military wife who came to stop the fight.
Everyone was so disgusted by the harsh words that Xiao Shitou uttered that they were unwilling to come forward to help.
"You tiger boy, get back here!"
Wang Aihua looked at Zhao Yulan worriedly, then took her son's hand and walked towards home. The others sighed as they looked at their backs.
Song Zhiya blinked.
She knew that some things were like this in this era, but she never expected that her child would be taught like this.
