Han Bin: "I stole a wife."

Grandma Han: "Where did you hide him?"

Tang Huihui: "I'll beat you to death!"

"Don't hit her, don't hit her, Mother, listen to me."

Tang Huihui: "What are you listening to? You take him back right now."

“Grandma, Mom, listen to me. When I went back this time, the commander asked me if I had gone on any blind dates. I said I had, but it didn't work out. However, I met a remarkable girl. The commander asked me how remarkable she was, and I told him. After listening, the commander said, ‘This girl is good; she'd be perfect as a military wife. Why don't you marry her?’”

Han Bin stopped and looked at his mother and grandmother. He realized they hadn't figured out who he was talking about. "Then I thought, 'That's right. Why don't I marry this girl? She's so capable, even if I'm not home, no one will dare to bully her.' With that in mind, I submitted my marriage application. Once it was approved, I came back. Mother, please help me propose tomorrow. I can only stay home for nine days."

Grandma Han: "Your commander said that girl is nice?"

"Um."

Tang Huihui: "Has the marriage certificate been approved?"

"Um."

Tang Huihui raised her hand and slapped Han Bin: "You only told us after the marriage application was approved? Don't you care about us at all? Huh? Don't you care about us at all?"

"Mother, Mother, I was wrong. It hurts, it hurts."

Grandma Han: "Eldest daughter-in-law, stop hitting her. The commander ordered him to marry her, how could he dare not?"

Tang Huihui: "The commander only said that the girl was nice."

Grandma Han: "Even the commander said it's good, why won't you let your child get married?"

Tang Huihui: "I'm not angry about that, I'm angry that he didn't tell us."

Grandma Han: "As long as the girl is alright. Okay, okay, stop hitting her. Look what you've done to the child. Binzi, come here, tell Grandma, where is that girl from? Is she pretty?"

"Sigh." Han Bin quickly ran to Grandma Han's side. "Grandma, it's not that I didn't want to tell you. I was afraid that girl would be snatched away by someone else. Grandma, let me tell you, today, as soon as I got off the train, I ran straight to that girl's house..."

Han Bin briefly recounted what had happened that day. Of course, he didn't mention threatening Xiaoman by saying that she had taken his place; he only said that he was a soldier and a regimental commander, and that people chose him because they thought he had potential.

Han Bin knew that his grandma and his mother didn't want to marry a wife as capable as Xiaoman, so he didn't mention Xiaoman's name: "Grandma, Mom, if I had gone a little later, that girl would have been someone else's. Grandma, you don't know, that man looks like a city person."

Grandma Han: "Luckily you ran fast."

"Um."

Grandma Han: "Eldest daughter-in-law, hurry up and find a matchmaker, we'll go propose marriage tomorrow."

"Hmm." The marriage application has already been approved, what else can she do? Besides, her son ruined someone else's good marriage.

"Thank you, Mother."

Tang Huihui snorted: "I'll deal with you later. Mother, I'm going out to find a matchmaker now."

"Go."

Han Bin: "Mother, don't go to matchmaker Jin."

"I understand. By the way, you keep talking about that girl, but who exactly is she?" If she's asking a matchmaker to go with her to propose marriage, she has to tell them where to go, right?

It's bound to happen: "Hehe, you know that girl too."

Grandma Han: "We know each other too?"

"Um."

Tang Huihui thought for a moment: "You brat, I'll beat you to death!" He knew perfectly well she didn't like strong-willed wives, yet he still found her such a strong one. He even filed for marriage and ruined their wedding. Now she has no choice but to marry him, even if she doesn't want to.

Tang Huihui grew angrier the more she thought about it: "If I can't beat you to death, I'll take your surname."

Grandma Han was completely stunned. "Eldest daughter-in-law, why are you hitting the child again?"

Tang Huihui: "I'm going to beat him to death today."

"Grandma, help! Grandma, help!"

Grandma Han: "Eldest daughter-in-law, stop hitting her, stop hitting her."

Tang Huihui wouldn't listen at all, and Grandma Han couldn't stop her no matter what she did.

When Han Dashan returned from the fields with his eldest son Han Gui, eldest daughter-in-law Tian Dahua, and youngest son Han Zhuang, he saw his wife and mother surrounding their second son. One was slapping him, the other pulling him away: "Binzi, why are you back?"

"Father, help! Mother is going to beat me to death!"

Han Dashan: "What's wrong?"

Grandma Han: "Come quickly and pull your daughter-in-law away."

"good."

Tang Huihui: "Don't pull me back, I'm going to beat this brat to death today."

Han Dashan struggled to pull Tang Huihui away. "Binzi, does the army not want you anymore?"

"no."

"Then why did you come back? And why is your mother so angry?"

"I'm coming back to get married."

"Married? You found someone in the military?"

"No." Han Bin looked at his mother. "I want to marry Wang Xiaoman."

Grandma Han: "Wang Xiaoman? From Hongqi Village?"

"Um."

Grandma Han: "I shouldn't have stopped your mother just now."

Han Dashan: "What? Is Wang Xiaoman not doing well?"

Grandma Han: "Wang Xiaoman is the girl who caused trouble at Erzhu's house."

Han Dashan's eyes widened in surprise: "Her! No, no, that girl is too amazing."

Tang Huihui: "If I could choose not to marry him, would I be this angry?"

Han Dashan: "What? Did Binzi take advantage of someone?"

Tang Huihui snorted.

Grandma Han recounted the whole story.

Han Dashan glared at Han Bin: "You little brat, I'll beat you to death."

Han Bin quickly hid behind Grandma Han: "Dad, Dad, you can't beat him anymore, or he won't be able to show his face in public."

"You just wait. Hmph."

We've already hit them and scolded them, but we still have to get on with our work.

Tang Huihui went out to find a matchmaker.

Han Bin went back to his room to rest.

Tian Dahua leaned close to Grandma Han and whispered, "Grandma, will Wang Xiaoman, after marrying into the family,..." She wanted to say whether she would bully me, but felt embarrassed, so she brought up the children instead: "Will she bully Dabao?"

Although Tian Dahua was from Hanjiazhuang, she had fled there during a period of hardship. Her father had become separated from them during the escape. After liberation, her mother always wanted to go back and find her father.

However, her mother was old, and her younger brother was still young. So she and Han Gui accompanied them back to their hometown. They weren't there when Han Bin came back last time.

After finding her father, they brought him back with them.

Tian Dahua and Han Gui have twins, a boy named Dabao and a girl named Dani. They are just five years old.

Han Zhuang should have called Han Bin "Second Brother," but when he was little, he couldn't pronounce the "second" correctly because he couldn't roll his tongue properly. So he called Han Gui "Big Brother" and Han Bin "Brother." He continued to call him that even as he grew up.

Grandma Han: "Don't worry, there are so many people in the family, she wouldn't dare to fight back."

That's what they say, but... my sister-in-law is so amazing, Tian Dahua couldn't sleep all night.

Tang Huihui couldn't sleep either.

Han Dashan: Why aren't you asleep yet? We have to get up early tomorrow.

"I can't sleep."

"Don't think about it. Go to sleep."

"You don't know, that Wang Xiaoman is not only amazing, but also stupid." Tang Huihui recounted Xiaoman's story about buying horses.

Han Dashan: "I really want to grab that brat and give him a good beating."

"Wang Xiaoman is so capable, tell me, will I be the one serving her or will she be serving me in the future?"
