Zhou had stopped crying, but when she saw Tian crying so hard, she started crying again. "God damn it! They really want to kill us. What should we do? Where's your father? Hurry and go to Zhoujia Village to call him back. This is a big deal."
Zhang also started crying.
Chunxiao sighed sadly. Such a big thing had not been leaked at all beforehand. The government was determined to do it this time. If there had been any news in advance, those who had not divided their families would have done so quickly, such as separating Yan Bangfa and Yan Dashan. Then this matter would have been easy to handle. It would have just been a matter of paying money. Now there was no room for transfer at all. What should he do? He could not go to the battlefield. What should he do?
She patted Zhou's back and said, "Mom, Dad and the others will be back in the evening. We're all worried now. I'm going to go to town tomorrow to see if there's any opportunity at the government office. Dad and Big Brother definitely won't let them go to the battlefield. We have to be more courageous now. If someone collapses, there's really no turning back."
Upon hearing this, Zhou wiped away her tears, but they didn't stop immediately. "Chunxiao, you've always been capable. You must help your father and the others. If they go to the battlefield, we won't be able to survive."
"Mom, don't be sad for now. I'll help you and sister-in-law go to bed and rest."
This is a very tricky matter. Saying that people are not allowed to go to the battlefield is only a temporary consolation, unless she has someone in the yamen. But where does she have anyone in the yamen? She can only go and ask tomorrow. She also has to bring Dongsheng back tomorrow. Now both of Dongsheng's family members have to go to the battlefield and face the same difficulties.
When Yan Bangfa and the others came back, they were all dejected. Shufeng and Shuwen had swollen eyes, obviously they had already known about this matter.
"I heard the news in Zhoujia Village today. What should we do?" Yan Dashan sat at the door with his head in his hands.
Shufeng started crying again while hugging her mother. Her father was going to the battlefield. Everyone knew that it was her father who was going to the battlefield. It made sense for the father to go and the son to go together.
Tian could only shed tears silently. At this very moment, someone came to their house to borrow money. After a few words, he probably realized that the timing was not right, so he sighed and left. The family simply closed the gate of the yard.
"What should I do?" Zhou felt bitter.
"What can we do? We can just leave it to fate. Can't each household pay a fee to exempt one male from the family? Dashan is still young, and the children are not yet grown up. I'm the one who goes, so there's no need to be so pessimistic. Going to the battlefield doesn't guarantee death. I'll hide if I can, and I'll always come back alive."
It would have been fine if he hadn't said it, but as soon as he said it, Zhou's tears flowed like a broken dam. On one side was her man, and on the other was her son. How could she choose?
"Dad, what are you talking about? If anyone wants to go, it's my son who should go. How can I let you go? I'll have to rely on you to take care of the family when the time comes."
Chunxiao felt that she couldn't stay any longer. She would suffocate if she stayed any longer. She had to find a way out. "Dad, Mom, sister-in-law, you should all go to bed early today. It's getting late. We can find a solution tomorrow morning."
Before leaving, she asked Daha to go with him and take the braised meat back.
