Chapter 858: Chapter 858: Wedding Banquet 7

"Do you think it’s not troublesome enough for me to take care of you?" He Teng rubbed his forehead with a headache-inducing expression, "Adding these little critters, and those several pots of flowers and plants at home, are you trying to worry me to death?"

"These should be easy to take care of, right?" He Zhilan mumbled, then looked up to ask the shop owner, "Isn’t it enough just to feed them some fish food every day?"

"Exactly, they’re super easy to raise! If a girl likes them, buy some and bring them home to raise. They’ll add some liveliness to the house!" The shop owner readily agreed with He Zhilan’s comments. He was like the wife in the proverb, who boasts about her own melons, sparing no compliments for his goldfish and turtles!

In the end, when they left the market, besides the vegetables in their hands, they also had a tank of goldfish and two little turtles. He Zhilan smiled and looked down at the fish and turtles in the glass tank while she walked. As for He Teng, his face was dark the entire way.

"He Zhilan, you’re going to S City next week, right?" He Teng suddenly spoke up, glancing at the little creatures in the young woman’s arms, "When you get back, if these little animals don’t make it, if you dare to cry, I’ll throw you out!"

"Hmph, as if I would." He Zhilan didn’t care at all, holding the fish tank with Bao Bei tightly, "You just need to help me feed them every day, and change the water every three days!’

Don’t say she’s still a child at heart, He Zhilan has loved these kinds of small animals since she was young. But back then, the He Family was poor and couldn’t afford such things. Sometimes when she went to the county town and saw street vendors selling them, her heart longed, but she had no money to buy.

Although she’s grown up now, that doesn’t mean her likes have changed. Usually, she wouldn’t see them, but once she did, He Zhilan couldn’t move her feet away.

The two took the villagers’ tractor back to the military unit. As soon as they entered the door and saw the house that had been renovated, He Zhilan was overjoyed.

"Brother, we’re home! This is our home in the military from now on!" Before He Zhilan went to the capital, she even bought the living room curtains. Now, the floor was tiled, a shoe cabinet was built at the entrance, and the walls were freshly painted white. As soon as she entered, the whole house felt much more spacious and bright.

After entering the door, He Zhilan immediately placed the little turtles and goldfish on the newly made shoe cabinet and looked around the home. She found every corner pleasing to the eye.

The political commissar’s wife from across the door probably heard some noise and came over. The door was not locked, so she stood in the doorway and peeked in, "Oh, the groom and bride are back! How is it, sister-in-law, did I decorate it well?"

"It looks amazing! Thank you so much for helping, sister-in-law!" He Zhilan ran out, holding the political commissar’s wife’s hand and acting coquettishly, "Sister-in-law, if you need any help in the future, you must not be polite! I’ll be there whenever you call, willing to climb a mountain of swords or plunge into a sea of flames without hesitation!"

"My goodness, no wonder you’re a college graduate. Sister-in-law finds your words so comforting!" The political commissar’s wife was amused by He Zhilan’s flattery, "Sister-in-law didn’t really help much. The craftsmen you called were serious and responsible. You had everything planned out. I just helped put things in place."

"Still, sister-in law, you are my benefactor!" said He Zhilan,

"Alright, alright, your benefactor!" Every time He Zhilan acted playfully, the political commissar’s wife felt as if she had gained another daughter. She let He Zhilan hold her arm. Hearing that the bride wanted to cook dinner to thank her that evening, the political commissar’s wife didn’t act polite and straight away said it would be nice to have a night off from cooking.
