In fact, not long after Tang Ran left, Qi Min found that Tang Ran was missing and thought that Tang Ran had gone out for something. Just when she was waiting anxiously, Lu Jinshu came over and told her that they would get together with Tang Ran and would be back later, and Xiaobao was also there.
Qi Min smiled and thanked Lu Jinshu, but he also understood what was wrong with his daughter.
"Although your father and I had arranged this series of things long ago, your father and I are very clear about how much your little sister has paid.
At the beginning, I wanted to keep her away from all this and arranged a way out for her early on. Besides the fact that she is the youngest child of your father and me, I didn't expect that a little girl like her could do this for us.
Partiality is real, and indebtedness is also real."
"Mom, you don't have to say anything, I understand."
Qi Min shook his head.
"You don't understand. It's not just what you see. Not long after the accident happened a few years ago, if your little sister hadn't stopped us, your father and I would have become part of that group that experienced ups and downs. We all know how miserable it was. Xiao Ran not only visited us and accompanied us from time to time, but also gave us hope to keep going.
She was just a naive little girl, now she is the only female commander in the military region. How much has she sacrificed?"
Tang Wei looked at his biological mother and wanted to tell her how Tang Ran risked her life to rescue him from Country M, but he was afraid that Qi Min would feel sad. After thinking it over again, he decided to tell her everything.
Qi Min covered her eyes. She was not a crying person, but she was heartbroken. Tang Kangnian, who was standing next to her, had already burst into tears and could not utter a word.
"I'm going to find my little sister."
"Don't go. Your little sister is feeling unwell. Your father and I are waiting for her here. We will have a reunion dinner together tomorrow. Take Xiaoshuang back to the guesthouse first."
Both of them understood very clearly that the appearance of Tang Rou and Tang Bo in the Tang family was definitely not a coincidence. There was something wrong with their education methods.
Accepting Xiaobao does not mean forgiving Tang Bo or blaming him, it is just because he schemed against his younger siblings and was not worthy of being their eldest brother. Tang Rou and Tang Bo were treated equally. Qi Min and Tang Kangnian would always stand by Tang Ran and respect any choice she made.
It was a warning to Tang Wei, telling him that it was okay if he didn't listen to his parents, because at most they would just have a precious daughter.
People should not be too greedy. With a daughter who is devoted to them, what else can they not be satisfied with?
"Wipe your snot. You're such a grown-up, yet you're crying like this."
"You've been mean to me. You never disliked me before."
"You also said that it was in the past, but now I treasure my daughter.
"Hurry up and light a fire, cook some porridge and set it aside. These kids must have gone out to drink together. If they're not careful, they'll get drunk. Some porridge will make your stomach feel better."
This is indeed the case. Comrades who fought side by side on the battlefield in the past need to stay sober at all times. Even if there is wine, they have no chance to drink it. Now, the two commanders take the lead and drink until they are drunk.
Although Tang Ran said she disliked Xiaobao, she really protected him. When Xiaobao kept calling her "little aunt", Tang Ran neither denied nor agreed. But after everyone knew about this relationship, they all had a bit of "love the house and love the dog" and took good care of the little guy.
The result was that, except for Lu Jinshu who did not drink too much, everyone else was quite drunk, and Xiaobao was quite full.
Although they were drunk, they still had a bit of clarity in their mind and staggered back to their respective dormitories. As for Tang Ran, she was escorted home by Lu Jinshu and Xiaobao.
The next morning, the girl was shy. She was not drunk. She knew how her parents took care of her and remembered everything they said. It made her seem like she was a "country evil concubine" vying for favor. The key point was that she was the most favored by her parents and her position was unshakable!
Tang Ran said that she was not the kind of person who cared about trivial matters. In this case, it was not impossible for her parents' love to be shared with others a little bit, but it could only be a little bit, no more.
In the following days, good news came from Qi Zheng that his aunt had given birth again, and both mother and child were safe. Then Rong He returned to the Northeast and joined the Northeast Military Region. Finally, with the arrival of the New Year, everyone was filled with joy.
However, despite her parents' overwhelming love, she still couldn't avoid the fate of being urged to get married. Tang Ran felt like she was about to break.
"Don't be upset, my friend. I'm not much better than you."
"Yes, I know. I heard everything you said in your room last night."
"What a coincidence. I don't want to listen to my parents nagging me, and I only want to listen to your second uncle nagging you."
What Tang Ran didn't know was that Qi Min and Tang Kangnian's mumblings came from the heart, completely without a script, while Lu Wei was reading the lines word for word. Lu Jinshu had put so much effort into the lines that he had marked the right tone for each line, where to bang the table, and where to stomp his feet.
Just when Lu Jinshu felt that his plan was going smoothly and he could move on to the next step soon, Tang Ran slapped Lu Jinshu on the shoulder, his eyes shining frighteningly.
"There's a way, why didn't I think of it earlier!
Lu Jinshu, why don’t we get a marriage certificate? During the day, we’ll be a couple to the outside world, and at night, we’ll be... brothers or sisters, you decide.
This way, my parents won't force me to get married, and your second uncle won't force you to find a partner. No one will nag me, and no one will know your sexual orientation. It's the best of both worlds. Maybe if you find the right person in the future, I can even cover for you or something!
What do you think?
Lu Jinshu: ...To be honest, the first half of the words almost made Lu Jinshu's heart jump out, but the second half almost made his beating heart die on the spot.
When did he give Tang Ran the illusion that he liked men?
Fortunately, Lu Jinshu is clear-headed and knows what is important. Sooner or later, he will let Tang Ran know that he is a man and likes Tang Ran!
"when?"
"What when?"
"Get the certificate."
"Do we need to file a marriage registration first?"
Lu Jinshu didn't dare to raise his eyes, for fear that the madness that was about to overflow from his eyes would scare away the wife he was about to get.
"I'll ask Commander Fang first. Let's keep this a secret from my second uncle and my parents so there won't be any more trouble. He doesn't like you or me, so let's get the certificate first. The rest will be easy. Anyway, it's a done deal, and we have to admit everything."
Tang Ran felt that she was extremely smart and had no idea that everyone was happy to see it happen except her, who had fallen into the trap set by Lu Jinshu without realizing it.
When Tang Ran arrived at Fang Yanwu's office, she felt guilty.
"Master Fang, what are you busy with?"
"Tell me what you have to say."
Tang Ran licked the corner of his mouth.
"Uncle Fang, we have been very close over the years. I need your help."
Fang Yanwu subconsciously wanted to drink some water to calm his nerves. Judging from the expression on her face, the girl must have gotten into some big trouble.
"You tell me first."
"Please approve a marriage report for Lu Jinshu and me. What are the procedures? The most important thing is that it needs to be quick. The faster the better!"
Fang Yanwu: ...Luckily he didn’t drink the water, otherwise he would have sprayed Tang Ran in the face.
