Han Bin took several steps back before regaining his balance.

Everyone in the courtyard was stunned.

After a while, everyone realized what had happened.

Tang Huihui: "Binzi, what did you do? I'm telling you, Xiaoman can't get angry right now. If you make Xiaoman angry, your son won't have any milk to drink."

Erwa: "Uncle Han, are you playing a game?"

Old Shang shook his head: "Heaven's sins may be forgiven, but self-inflicted sins cannot be forgiven."

Old Guo glared at Han Bin: "There's no food for you at home, go eat at the cafeteria."

Xiao Hei nudged Han Bin with its head. The message was clear: Go now, don't stay home.

Han Bin patted Xiao Hei's head: "Xiao Man, I really, really, really don't want to go. If I go, you'll be so tired at home."

Xiaoman's voice came from inside the house: "Get out!"

Xiao Hei nudged Han Bin with its head again. Han Bin took a few steps back: "Xiao Man, if I go, Nao Nao and Tengteng won't recognize me."

Xiaoman replied with one more word: "Get lost."

Xiao Hei nudged Han Bin again. Chao Bin quickly hugged Xiao Hei's neck: "Stop nudging me, stop nudging me, or I'll get out of here."

Little Black barked a few times: "I'm going to kick you out."

Erwa came over and hugged Xiaohei's leg: "Xiaohei, stop hitting Uncle Han, hit me instead, hit me."

Tang Huihui looked at her son: "Where don't you want to go?"

Han Bin took a few steps back: "Military academy."

Tang Huihui's eyes lit up: "You got into military academy?"

"Hmm." Han Bin wasn't happy at all.

Han Bin discovered that Zhang Jun was not only good-looking but also very knowledgeable, so he started studying with him. He also often discussed things with Xiao Man. This time, Han Bin just wanted to practice, but unexpectedly, he passed the exam.

With Xiaoman around, it would be difficult for him not to pass the exam.

Tang Huihui couldn't believe it: "You really passed the exam?"

"Um."

"And then you don't want to go?"

"Um."

Tang Huihui slapped Han Bin on the shoulder: "Are you stupid? Huh? Are you stupid? You got accepted and you're not going to go? If it were me, I'd throw you out too!"

Han Bin glanced into the room: "The children are so young, I..."

Before he could finish speaking, Tang Huihui interrupted him, saying, "With me here, you don't need to worry about it."

Old Shang looked at Han Bin and said, "With us here, you can rest assured."

Lao Guo: "Exactly."

Erwa blinked: "What's a military academy?"

Han Bin looked at everyone and said, "I think I'll go in a few years."

Tang Huihui slapped her son again: "Will they still want you in a few years?"

Han Bin: "If I can pass the exam this time, I can pass it again in a few years."

Xiaoman's voice came from inside the house: "Get out!"

Tang Huihui slapped Han Bin again: "Did you hear that? Xiaoman told you to get lost."

Old Shang: "Opportunity knocks but once."

Lao Guo: "Exactly."

Erwa: "Uncle Han, are you being disobedient? If I'm disobedient, my mother will beat me."

Xiaoman came out of the house: "Get out."

Tang Huihui glared at her son: "Yes. Get out!"

Han Bin looked at everyone and said, "I'll go, I'll go, okay?"

Xiaoman nodded and went back.

Once Han Bin agreed, Tang Huihui stopped being angry: "Son, when are you going? Mom will pack your things."

Old Guo pulled Erwa off Xiao Hei's legs: "Come on, let's go cook."

Old Shang patted Han Bin on the shoulder: "You have potential."

Han Bin really didn't want to go.

Tang Huihui asked again, "Son, when are you going?"

"Next week."

Tang Huihui happily went to pack her son's things.

Old Shang looked at Han Bin and smiled: "Even if you study for ten years, your son will still know you."

"I know, I just can't bear to part with her. Uncle Shang, I'm going in to say a few words to Xiaoman."

"Go."

Han Bin went inside, spoke a few words with Xiao Man, and then went to Commander Huo's office.

Commander Huo knew without even thinking: "You got a scolding, didn't you?"

"Um."

"That?"

"I'll go."

Commander Huo laughed: "That's more like it. Let me tell you, don't underestimate women. Sometimes, women are more capable than us men. Back when I was fighting on the front lines, your sister-in-law raised the children all by herself."

"I know. I'm just a little reluctant to part with it."

“I’m reluctant to part with him either. But we’re men. A man has to support his family. The bigger your family’s support, the better your wife and children will live.”

"I understand. Thank you, sir."

"Okay. Study hard, I believe in you."

"good."

A week later, Han Bin left with great reluctance.

Hanjiazhuang.

Grandma Han was resting inside. Han Zhuang's wife came in. "Grandma, I want to go back to my parents' home."

Grandma Han looked at Li Qiaoqiao. Li Qiaoqiao had been married into the family for two years: "Didn't you just come back from your parents' home?"

Li Qiaoqiao patted her belly: "The baby wants to eat the sauerkraut dumplings my mother makes."

Grandma Han glanced at Li Qiaoqiao's belly and thought: "How pathetic, using the child as an excuse." "Fine."

“Then I’ll have Zhuangzhuang take me back. Grandma, I want to take some flour back with me, because my family doesn’t have any.”

"Alright then." Grandma Han called Tian Dahua in: "She's going back to her parents' home. Pack her some flour."

Tian Dahua objected: "Grandma, there's not much flour left."

Li Qiaoqiao stretched out her belly: "Then let my second sister-in-law send some more."

Tian Dahua looked at Grandma Han.

Grandma Han: "Then pack less."

Tian Dahua: "Sigh."

Li Qiaoqiao was unhappy: "Grandma, the child..."

Grandma Han glared at Li Qiaoqiao. What's so special about her? She's just pregnant. "Don't take it if you think it's too little."

Li Qiaoqiao dared not speak.

Han Zhuang took Li Qiaoqiao back to her parents' home.

Li Qiaoqiao's mother smiled as soon as she saw her daughter: "You're here, come in quickly."

Han Zhuang sat for a while and then went back to work.

As soon as he left, Li Qiaoqiao's mother opened Li Qiaoqiao's bag. "Why did you only take so little flour?"

"My sister-in-law said there's not much flour left at home."

"Then have your second sister-in-law send it."

"That's what I said too."

Li Qiaoqiao's mother put the flour away: "When is your mother-in-law coming back?"

Li Qiaoqiao lay down on the bed: "I don't know. Mother, I want to eat sauerkraut dumplings."

"Okay, I'll pack it for you in a bit. I remember, your second sister-in-law passed away right after she got pregnant, and you're three months along now, why hasn't your mother-in-law come back yet?"

Li Qiaoqiao sat up abruptly: "That's right, it's been three months already. Why hasn't she come back yet?"

Why didn't you even ask?

"I'll ask when I get back."

The next day, Han Zhuang came to pick up Li Qiaoqiao.

When Li Qiaoqiao's mother saw Han Zhuang, she asked, "Zhuangzhuang, is your second sister-in-law's baby a month old yet?"

"Um."

"Is your mother coming back soon?"

“My mother isn’t coming back. My brother got into military academy. My mother will be there helping my second sister-in-law take care of her child.”

Li Qiaoqiao immediately became anxious upon hearing this: "No way."

Han Zhuang was stunned for a moment.

Li Qiaoqiao's mother was also a little unhappy: "Zhuangzhuang, does your mother not know that Qiaoqiao is pregnant too?"

"Know."

"Then why doesn't she come back?"

“With my grandma and my sister-in-law here, it’s okay even if my mother doesn’t come back.”

Li Qiaoqiao's mother's face immediately darkened: "Did you say that, or did your mother say it?"

"That's what my grandma said. What happened?"

Li Qiaoqiao put her hands on her hips and said, "Han Zhuang, let me tell you, if your mother doesn't come back, I won't go back."
