The three of them were winking at each other. This man was really eye-opening! He made it sound so easy, why didn't he just give birth?
When people are speechless, they really laugh. Jiang Yan was so angry that she laughed. She only heard the woman say softly, "Brother Fang, I don't want to embarrass you and sister-in-law because of me and Lao Du. If she knows that you gave Xiaobao to us, she will definitely make a fuss. I also like Xiaobao very much. If he were my son, Lao Du would definitely be happy."
As she spoke, she observed Fang Long's expression. Seeing the guilt towards Lao Du in Fang Long's eyes, she knew that this matter was almost certain.
Fang Long said in a resounding voice: "I am the man of the family, I can make the decision on this matter. Lao Du and I have a life-and-death friendship.
Isn't it just a baby? Xiaobao, I'll make the decision and give it to you. I'll bring it to you later."
The woman's eyes showed a triumphant smile, but she sighed, "Okay, you send Xiaobao here first. Tomorrow Lao Du and I will leave for our hometown. I don't know when I will see him again in this lifetime.
From now on, he is the son of Lao Du and me. Squad Leader Fang, I don’t know how to thank you enough. When my Lao Du knew that you gave our son to him, he was so moved that he burst into tears.
Don't worry, we will definitely treat him as our own son and won't let him suffer any injustice."
As she spoke, she wiped her eyes. Fang Long felt guilty: "It's all my fault. If it weren't for me, Lao Du and you would have a baby. It's settled then. I'm going back first."
Having said that, he turned around and wanted to leave.
Jiang Yan just couldn't stand this kind of male chauvinism. She said, "What? Is your wife a sow? She can give birth whenever she is told to?
Aren't you afraid that your son will be given away? In the future, there will be no one to carry on the family line. Your parents will have to hang themselves on your wall with a rope. What a capable person you are! You still stand here to take advantage of others. Does your wife agree?
If she doesn't agree, what's the difference between you and human traffickers? You're a soldier, you've never seen such a thing before."
Of course, Jiang Yan was justifiably disgusted with the two of them. She fixed her eyes on the woman and said sarcastically, "You are not a good person, but you blame the uneven road. You just want it with your hand. How can you be so shameless?
Don't let your man be incompetent, and try to set up a trap for him!"
The woman's eyes flashed when she said this, and Jiang Yan knew that she had guessed it right.
Tang Xiuxiu was frightened by Jiang Yan's aggressiveness and whispered, "Comrade, you misunderstood me. My man was trying to save him, so he just... just..."
It seemed difficult to say, so she was embarrassed to continue.
Jiang Yan took over the conversation, "Isn't it already impossible? Who can prove that he couldn't survive because of saving someone? What if he couldn't survive before? Did you just get married?
You've been married for a long time, but you still haven't gotten pregnant. Haven't you ever thought that it's your own problem? I've finally taught you a lesson."
It was the first time that Tang Xiuxiu encountered such an eloquent woman. She was so angry that she clenched her teeth.
She cursed in her heart, thinking it was none of her business. Her son was about to be cheated out of money, and now this happened. If Fang Long didn't agree, what would she and Lao Du do?
Returning to the countryside, she would be laughed at for not having a son. She was so angry that she stamped her feet, tears in her eyes, as if she had suffered a great injustice.
"How can you talk like that, sister-in-law? If it weren't for my man, he would be dead. He did it voluntarily. We didn't force him. You should take care of the baby in your belly first!"
It would be best if she couldn't give birth or died of dystocia. Who told her to talk too much?
Fang Long disagreed, "Old Du is my brother. If he doesn't have a child, my son will have to take care of him until the end of his life. You women, how can you understand the friendship between us men?"
After saying that, he strode away. Tang Xiuxiu was afraid that the night would be long and she didn't dare to offend Jiang Yan, so she ran away with her tail between her legs.
Jiang Yan rolled her eyes speechlessly, "Whose military dependent is this? If I catch him, I'll break his legs. Why is he talking so arrogantly? He really thinks he's a piece of cake."
Miao Xiuying also didn't understand. Most people in the countryside valued boys over girls, so it was amazing that he would come up with the idea of giving his son away.
However, this was none of her business. She pulled Jiang Yan's hand and spat twice, "Let's not worry about it. Evildoers will be punished by their own evildoers. We can't just give this kid away!"
At first, a few people thought it was just an incident, but the next day, there was a commotion in the courtyard.
The woman on the ground was hugging Fang Long's thighs, crying and begging, "Where is Xiaobao? Where is Xiaobao? Give Xiaobao back to me, I beg you.
I only want Xiaobao, please let me take a look at him. No matter how good your relationship is with him, he is your son. Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. Fang Long, how could you do such a heartless thing?
He was born after ten months of hard work. He is not some random person's cat or dog. Why do you decide to give him away?
I won't allow it. You must return my son to me, or I will die here."
Her eyes were red and swollen, and her voice was hoarse. It was obvious that she had been crying for a long time. Fang Long felt a little embarrassed being stared at by everyone.
He pulled Shen Qing up and said angrily, "Didn't I discuss with you to give Xiaobao to Lao Du? Because of me, he can't have children in the future.
I have to find someone to take care of him in his old age. Miao, Shen Qing, you can't be so selfish. As a military family member, you have to have a spirit of sacrifice.
If you lose your baby, you can have another one. I know you love Xiaobao, so don't make it difficult for me. Lao Du will definitely treat him like his own son. What else do you have to worry about?"
When Shen Qing heard him say this, his eyes widened, as if he had just met him.
She slapped Fang Long in anger and cried uncontrollably: "Give my son back to me, or I will report him to the police right away.
Without my consent, what you are doing is considered trafficking, Fang Long, you have to return Xiaobao to me, quickly."
When everyone heard this, what was there to not understand? They had seen people risking their lives for their comrades, but they had never seen anyone giving their children to their comrades to raise.
The sisters-in-law around him all said, "Fang Long, this is your fault. The baby is not yours alone. Why did you make the decision on your own and give the baby away?
Besides, you owe him the money, not Shen Qing. Why should you give Xiaobao to him? Hurry up and get the baby back, otherwise it will make a big fuss and you will lose face. "
The important thing is that he also has to change his career. Why are there so many people like him, who have rusty brains and only do shameful things that are not presentable?
Shen Qing grabbed his hand as if it were a life-saving straw.
"Go quickly and get the baby back. It's my life. Even if we get a divorce today, I'll take the baby with me.
You owed him the money, not me. Why are you asking my child to pay it back? You are so heartless. I will call my parents-in-law and tell them that you gave your son away.
I wonder if you still have the face to live like this. Go home and face your ancestors. I have never seen a man as cowardly as you.
If her man could have children, how could Tang Xiuxiu's belly remain still for several years? The two of them set a trap for you to fall into.
You still think he treats you as a brother? Take your son back immediately, or I will make sure you can’t stay in the army anymore.”
