With Lu Erxiong running out of the house, the Lu family courtyard suddenly became lively.
Elder Lu and the Cheng Baoguo couple, being light sleepers, got up early to exercise, while Xiaomiao had already gone for several laps and came back to practice boxing in the courtyard, not slacking off just because he'd left the army.
"Old comrade, what are we having for breakfast? I'll go make it." Xiaomiao asked the head of the family.
Although Elder Lu didn't often visit the military compound where his son and daughter-in-law were, he was already accustomed to the presence of orderlies. He hurriedly said, "Yesterday everyone helped steam over a hundred two-flour rolls in five big pots and made a big pan of sweet potato pancakes. This morning, some porridge and reheated rolls will do. We have ready-made pickles at home, chop them up and fry them with lard. Xibao, Xibao, come help your uncle."
Xibao responded and led Ye Yan and his two brothers outside.
