The son-in-law of Ha Nang Thao and Ha Thi Thuy is Nguyen Xuan Hoan, who supports the Culture-Arts team of the People's Army of Vietnam participating in the Army Games 2021 as an interpreter. In fact, since the Culture-Arts team arrived in Moscow, Hoan has helped the team with many things, from providing game information, training times, training locations to logistics.

When he heard some members of the Culture-Arts team had a hard time adapting to Russian cuisine, Ha Nang Thao and Ha Thi Thuy immediately went to the market to buy crabs to grind and pound. Neighbors and family members also help out and work together.

Not only crabs, Ha Thi Thuy also went to her home garden to harvest water spinach, perilla, marjoram. Everyone in the Culture-Arts team received a meaningful gift from the family of Ha Nang Thao and Ha Thi Thuy.

Ha Nang Thao and Ha Thi Thuy are all children of martyrs. They went to Russia to work as workers at the KhBK textile factory complex in the 80s of the last century. The couple stayed in Russia, choosing the land of Krasnodar to start a business.

At that time, in his hometown of Hai Duong, relatives asked why he chose Krasnodar, rather than Moscow or another city, Ha Nang Thao said, choosing Krasnodar because this is the capital of Southern Russia. Here, food is abundant, the climate is mild, winters are not too cold. The snow here does not fall much and if it does, it melts quickly, suitable for farmers to grow crops, raise poultry and livestock. It is quite agreeable for Vietnamese health.

Their family currently has a 100 square meter garden (in Kovchiuakha street, Krasnodar city) to grow vegetables and fruits. Any family in Krasnodar that has the conditions to make a greenhouse can grow vegetables all year round, while Ha Nang Thao's family grows vegetables from March to November every year. On this occasion, water spinach, perilla, marjoram are growing well, the couple immediately harvested and sent to the Culture-Arts team in Moscow.

Krasnodar city is the administrative center of the Krasnodar region (also known as Kuban), which is the food capital of Russia. Grains, wheat, and most of Russia's fruit come from this region. Vietnamese tourists coming to Krasnodar will enjoy the bright yellow color of the canola flowers fields. The seafood market is extremely rich, with a variety of fish, shrimp, and squid.

When hearing that everyone in the Culture-Arts team enjoy crabs and vegetables, Ha Nang Thao, Ha Thi Thuy and their neighbors were very happy. These days, whenever Thuy is free, she goes to the garden to take care of vegetables. Their family is planning to go to the seafood market next week to find delicious food to send to the group.

Looking at vegetables growing in the garden, the two were very happy, because in a few days they would be able to harvest and send it to Moscow for the Culture-Arts team. They hope that the members of the team eat delicious food, sleep well to ensure their health, ready to enter the competition. They also hope that their son-in-law will fulfill his task well in supporting the Culture-Arts team of the Vietnam People's Army.
