Chapter 383 I would rather he not be the battalion commander
Wang Qiuhong was quite surprised to see Ye Ying suddenly appear.
She didn't believe that Ji Lianqi would not rush back to see his father for the last time, and looked out the door several times.
After confirming that his son was really not there, he sighed several times with a sad face.
"You really came." Wang Qiuhong looked at Ye Ying with mixed feelings, her tone much calmer than before, "I didn't expect you still remember the way."
Ye Ying had actually informed Wang Qiuhong in advance before coming, but Wang Qiuhong did not take it seriously at first.
After all, he had treated Ye Ying so badly in the beginning that it could be said that he had basically never treated her well.
Even seeing her now, she still felt somewhat uncomfortable.
So when Ye Ying really appeared in front of her, she was shocked and surprised.
As soon as she sat down, Wang Qiuhong began to wipe away her tears: "I never thought that this good son whom I raised with great effort would not even come back to see his father for the last time. I...I, ah! Wuwuwu..."
Ye Ying wanted to say something, but couldn't.
As she cried, Wang Qiuhong slapped her thighs several times in agitation and complained, "Tell me, how am I going to explain this to his father?"
“.....”
"I just don't believe what would happen if he was missing from the disaster relief scene!"
Wang Qiuhong began to express her dissatisfaction with Ji Lianqi.
"It's always like this. Last time, before dawn on the first day of the Lunar New Year, he went to the front without telling us. I...ah! I was so angry..."
"Is it possible that in his eyes, family members are not important at all?"
.....
After listening to Wang Qiuhong's "accusation", Ye Ying felt depressed.
She really wanted to say a few words on behalf of Ji Lianqi.
But she suddenly remembered that there was a time when she did not understand Ji Lianqi like Wang Qiuhong.
It was not until the last time they talked on the phone that she felt she had truly understood him.
Looking at Wang Qiuhong who looked resentful, Ye Ying hesitated for a moment and sighed, "In fact, it's not that Lian Qi doesn't want to come back, but that he can't. I believe he will understand him."
"After all, his identity is here, he..."
"Then I would rather he not be the battalion commander!" Wang Qiuhong wiped her tears and said excitedly: "I shouldn't have listened to his father and let him join the army."
"It's been ten years! He has been home so seldom. It doesn't matter if he has a son but can't go home or not. What's the difference?"
"I, Wang Qiuhong, don't have any aspirations. I am just an ordinary woman with simple thoughts. I just hope that my son can be by my side and be safe and sound."
Ye Ying: “….”
Seeing Ye Ying's hesitation, Wang Qiuhong continued, "Why? Did I say something wrong? Think about it, if you get pregnant in the future and he is still away from home for many years like he is now, are you sure you can endure it?"
"I've been there before. I've been through all of this."
I don’t know what happened, but Wang Qiuhong was talking particularly quietly today.
"His father was a member of the Red Army. In our time, things were much more chaotic than they are now."
"His father was often not at home. After I got pregnant with him, I took care of everything by myself. If I was sick or in pain, I couldn't count on his father at all! I had to swallow all the grievances and complaints."
"You can't count on him for things like this."
Wang Qiuhong was lost in her memories. Although she was complaining about Ji Xingguo, a smile appeared on her face unconsciously.
Wang Qiuhong and Ji Xingguo are from the same place. At that time, they were both single when they reached marriageable age. Then someone came to act as a matchmaker for them.
Although Wang Qiuhong was not considered a great beauty when she was young, she was pretty good looking and Ji Xingguo fell in love with her at first sight.
In their time, unions between men and women were simpler and cruder, and two people only met a few times from the time they met to the time they got married.
Ji Xingguo happened to be home visiting his relatives at the time, and no one knew who had suggested it, but a middleman suddenly appeared and tied the knot between the two of them.
At that time, Wang Qiuhong was an embroiderer, and was considered well-known in that area. They were very satisfied with each other when they met for the first time.
In addition, Ji Xingguo had a high status and was handsome at the time, so he quickly won Wang Qiuhong over, and the two got married soon after.
But after marriage, Wang Qiuhong felt that she had been deceived and it was not what she had imagined at all.
She felt like a widow all the time.
Ji Xingguo was rarely seen throughout the year, and she was asked to take care of all matters, no matter big or small.
As a result, her original good temper was completely worn out over the years, and she became a vicious and shrewd woman.
Although she had many complaints in her heart, they would suddenly disappear overnight whenever Ji Xingguo came back.
At this point, Wang Qiuhong's eyes revealed a touch of happiness, "This old man, every time I quarreled with him in the letter and threatened to divorce, he would find ways to make me happy."
"Every time he came back, he would bring me some strange little gadgets, and then he would just coax me a few words, and all of a sudden, all the resentment I had in my heart would disappear, and I would easily forgive him."
"Then, we started an endless cycle of back and forth, I made noises, he coaxed me, and it went on like this for many years, and I got through it like this."
"Don't you think it's funny?" Wang Qiuhong looked at Ye Ying.
Ye Ying pursed her lips and shook her head, "No, that's because you both love each other so much that you will make concessions to each other. Otherwise, no matter how he coaxes you, you may not stay."
Wang Qiuhong sighed, "Oh, yes. I couldn't accept it in the first two years, but later I could only force myself to try to understand him, and I had to swallow all the pain myself."
"But fortunately, the hard times are over. His father has finally settled down and doesn't have to run around anymore."
Wang Qiuhong talked on and on, and Ye Ying listened quietly.
"What happened? When my son grew up, he started to follow his old path again. Sigh!"
Wang Qiuhong patted her thigh helplessly. Her face seemed to have suddenly aged ten years. Her eyes were red again. "Neither of these father and son gives me peace of mind."
