"Who could have guessed it right? When Platoon Leader Lu told us before, we thought they were twins, but it turned out to be a lie..."
"Tsk tsk, my sister-in-law is really good at giving birth, so amazing..."
"Shh! Keep your voice down, or you'll get beaten if someone hears you!"
Qiao Qingqing did not eavesdrop on what they were saying, but Yao Xiaoman and Zhou Lanfang, each holding a child, stood behind and heard all the whispers of the group.
Yao Xiaoman was not familiar with anyone else. The only person she was familiar with was her current partner, Qi Guodong.
So Yao Xiaoman aimed at the opponent's butt and kicked it.
She was not very strong, and when Qi Guodong felt someone touching his butt, he immediately straightened up.
When he turned around and met her provocative gaze, Qi Guodong immediately chuckled.
Yao Xiaoman looked disgusted: "What are you talking about?"
Qi Guodong quickly shook his head: "Xiao Man, I didn't say anything, they said it all."
The other soldier also quickly distanced himself from the others and looked at Zhou Lanfang innocently.
"Lan Fang, do you need my help?"
Zhou Lanfang subconsciously lifted her hair and tucked it behind her ears, slightly turning her head to avoid his sight, "No need."
She carried Lu Xiaonian and sat down in the pavilion. Seeing this, Yao Xiaoman followed them.
Seeing him standing there in a daze, Qi Guodong nudged him with his elbow and reminded him in a low voice: "Zhuang Xiaobai, why are you standing here like an idiot? You won't find a wife just by being in a daze."
After saying that, Qi Guodong came forward with a shameless face, "Xiao Man, do your arms get sore from holding the child? Let me hold the child for a while?"
Yao Xiaoman said "get out" but her eyes were full of smiles.
Seeing that his shamelessness worked so well, Zhuang Xiaobai gritted his teeth and, despite the teasing looks from others, approached the girl he liked.
"Thank you for today."
Seeing him coming over, Zhou Lanfang took the initiative to speak, looking at him seriously and said, "Sister Qingqing told us that you went to the Revolutionary Committee and helped her teach those militiamen who bullied people a lesson."
Zhuang Xiaobai heard this and shook his head: "No need to thank me, they deserve to be beaten. They use chicken as a token of authority and bully even innocent people. They are not good people."
Zhou Lanfang hummed softly and lowered her head to fiddle with Lu Xiaoqing's small hands. The little girl closed her black eyes in her godmother's arms, opened her mouth to reveal her pink gums, and let out a small, milky breath.
"But Sister Qingqing also said that since you guys got physical today, you can't avoid writing a self-criticism..." Zhou Lanfang's voice got lower and lower, "I'm sorry, if I hadn't come to find you, you wouldn't have to write a self-criticism."
Zhuang Xiaobai blurted out: "I am willing."
The sound was a little loud, and everyone looked over immediately.
Zhou Lanfang felt even more embarrassed.
Zhuang Xiaobai seemed to realize that his words were heard.
But the shy man in the past mustered up his courage at this moment. Facing the gazes of the crowd, he looked at the girl in front of him seriously and said, "Lan Fang, in front of so many people, I want to formally ask you: Can you enter into a relationship with me on the premise of marriage? In the future, I will definitely be your most loyal revolutionary partner."
Hearing the noise in the yard, Qiao Qingqing rushed to the kitchen door with a spatula.
Although she didn't hear clearly what Zhuang Xiaobai said to Lan Fang just now, but seeing the state of the two and the atmosphere in the courtyard, she could guess what happened.
Lan Fang, who had been almost still, finally responded.
She nodded gently and said "OK".
The courtyard suddenly erupted in cheers.
