In her previous life, Jiang Xiachu loved Lu Huaiyan for ten years.
What she got in return was three years of a military marriage without seeing him, and even when she gave birth to their daug...
The other members also gathered around, "Sister An Yao, your mother is really amazing. You must be so happy growing up in such a family, unlike us."
"An Yao, you will definitely have a bright future and become a great artist like your mother!"
"An Yao, your mother is here, and we are all lucky to have her here!"
“…”
Everyone was extremely flattering, and Xu Qingqing was especially cooperative with Meng Anyao. She understood Meng Anyao's character and was afraid that people didn't know that Su Jieyu was her mother, so she kept flattering her crazily.

After resting for a while, everyone started training again.
After about an hour, Du Jing and Teacher Cheng looked at the people who were training with extremely worried and disappointed eyes.
No one's performance met her expectations; it was too bland and totally unattractive.
There is a very important role this time. The scene is that when the People's Liberation Army was crossing the river, the women walked into the icy river to hold up the tower bridge. Among them was a mother who had just given birth.
Because there was a real shortage of manpower and everyone wanted to help the PLA soldiers, the mother joined in the effort without even taking care of her children.
But I don’t know if it’s because the female soldiers in the regiment are too young and have never experienced what it’s like to be a mother, so it’s difficult for them to interpret the essence of the role and people can’t empathize with the role.
Du Jing and Teacher Cheng looked at everyone and sighed helplessly.
Such training was really ineffective. Du Jing saw this and stepped forward, called a halt midway, asked everyone to stand forward, and said solemnly: "The role of this mother is crucial. She must demonstrate the spirit of selfless dedication of women when the People's Liberation Army crossed the river."
"Everyone has never seen that scene, so you must try hard to imagine the spectacular scene at that time. You must have a sense of the picture. Only when you truly immerse yourself in it can you make the audience believe it and move them."
Zhao Yuhe, who was in charge of this role, curled her lips and felt a little depressed when she heard what Du Jing said.
She didn't like the role she took at first, as she was just an unmarried girl who had never had a boyfriend. However, the role required her to be portrayed as old and ugly, and she also had to think about what her mother would think.
It's really too difficult. She still can't find any feeling at all and has no way to put herself in the situation.
Feeling that Zhao Yuhe was not in a good condition, Teacher Cheng waved to everyone and asked them to sit in a circle, intending to discuss together how to perform on this stage.
After everyone was seated, Teacher Cheng habitually asked Ye Wantong to speak, "Wantong, tell us how to perform this role well."
Ye Wantong cleared her throat and spoke without hesitation, "I think we must show the child's love for the mother. This will better show the mother's dedication to the army and the people, who neglected her child to build the bridge. This is a great sacrifice."
Listening to Ye Wantong's empty talk, Teacher Cheng couldn't help but frown, his eyes full of helplessness.
What was the difference between what she said and what Du Jing had just said? What she wanted was how to express this feeling, not to repeat her words again.
She waved her hand helplessly, "Okay, sit down."
It's really disgusting.
Seeing Teacher Cheng's dissatisfied expression, Meng Anyao raised her hand confidently with a smug smile on her face, "Teacher, I know what to do."
Seeing Meng Anyao so confident, Teacher Cheng raised his eyebrows and nodded, "Oh? Okay, then tell me what you think."
Meng Anyao couldn't wait to speak: "If I were to play the role of a mother, I would definitely be like my mother, loving my children, and loving the army and the people even more. Although I would feel guilty towards my children, if I had to choose, I would choose to sacrifice my small family."
"I think the role of mother is not just an identity, but also a symbol of spirit. I will incorporate this spirit into my performance, so that everyone can see the greatness of a mother and let the audience feel the mother's love and dedication to the country and her respect for the soldiers."
As she spoke, Meng Anyao seemed to be moved by her own words, and her eyes became red.
Xu Qingqing was very cooperative with Meng Anyao, and immediately echoed in a flattering manner: "Wow, Anyao, Aunt Su must love you very much, you said it very well!"
Meng Anyao smiled and recalled every little detail about her mother and herself.
"Yes, my mother is very good to me. I have never suffered any hardship since I was a child. My auntie takes care of everything at home for me. Whatever I want, no matter how expensive it is, my mother will give it to me. She tells me that the money she makes is for me to spend. She also always says that I am a gift from God to her."
Meng Anyao said with a happy face, "My mother has never been absent from all the important moments in my life. She will always show up no matter how busy she is. She also told me not to put too much pressure on myself and will leave the best for me."
Meng Anyao kept talking, but most of the other girls around her were silent.
Many people felt bitter in their hearts and couldn't help but turn red in the eyes.
Instead of empathizing with the person, they felt envy.
Most of the girls come from average or even bad families and don’t live a happy life.
Especially for those who have younger brothers at home, they have made preparations before joining the army. If they are eliminated, they will go back and find someone to marry, have children, and start a family.
The betrothal money received from marriage basically will not remain in their hands, but will be given to their younger brother from their natal family to use for his marriage.
Seeing everyone's silent and uncomfortable expressions, Meng Anyao immediately guessed that they were envious of her.
Her family was well-known in the capital; they were rich, her parents were powerful, and she was the only daughter. She enjoyed all the love and had a smooth life from childhood to adulthood, with basically no setbacks.
Girls from ordinary families not only have to do a lot of work, but they may also be scolded as money-losing goods.
Thinking of this, Meng Anyao felt a sense of superiority in her heart, and the corners of her mouth raised high.
"My mother also said that everything in the family would belong to me from now on, and that she would follow my opinion on who to marry. If I didn't want to get married, she wouldn't force me. Anyway, our family assets would be more than enough to support me for three lifetimes."
"She said, I will never suffer in my life."
"I chose dancing because of my mother's influence. I was so proud of her shining on the stage and wanted to be like her."
"After I told them I wanted to dance, my mother was very supportive and taught me carefully over the years."
She became more and more excited as she spoke. "My father is also very good to me. He said that I am the person he cares about the most and supports all my interests. I will never run out of pocket money."
