The village chief said, "Don't worry, with Professor Song's connections, your name will definitely be on the list of new recruits this time."
Even if he goes to join the army, he still cannot do without the relationship with the Song family.
Zhao Weidong completely cut off contact with the Song family in his first year of military service. He performed well in the army, so he was promoted very quickly, and his monthly salary and allowances increased accordingly.
He is now able to cover the family expenses and send money home every month so that his family can live a good life.
When the villagers talked about the Zhao family, they no longer thought of them as a poor and pitiful family. Instead, they envied the fact that they had someone in the army who could send them money every month.
While sending money home, Zhao Weidong also sent money to the village chief and wrote a letter asking him to return the money to the Song family.
No matter how much money he took from the Song family when he was young, he would pay it back little by little from now on, so that the Song family would not have to worry. He knew himself well and understood that he and Song Yingying were not a good match. He did not take the childhood marriage seriously, but was very grateful to the Song family for taking care of their family over the years.
The village chief was caught in the middle, feeling awkward. "What kind of thing is this? We knelt down and kowtowed in front of the ancestral temple to arrange the marriage. How can we just cancel it?"
In this way, Zhao Weidong worked his way up from a private to a squad leader, platoon leader, company commander... and kept moving up.
At the Song family's side, Song Yingying's parents did not completely hide the truth from her. When Song Yingying was a teenager and could understand what marriage was, they told her about her arranged marriage when she was a child.
Song Yingying was shocked that she had lost her memory and had lost her memory for several days.
There was a boy, and he turned out to be her fiancé?
But she didn't even know what he looked like.
Song Yingying was shocked only for this moment. She was not curious about Zhao Weidong, nor did she care about her marriage. She was completely focused on her books, working tirelessly every day.
Both sides lived a peaceful life until - the storm hit.
Song Yingying's parents were forced to go to the countryside. If they left Song Yingying behind, she as a girl would definitely be bullied. If they took Song Yingying to the countryside, such a remote and poor place, how could she survive?
"No! We can't take Yingying with us! Yingying has lived in the city since she was a child. The only time she went to the countryside when she was a child, something went wrong. If we take her with us, she will have to suffer with us!"
"What else can we do if we don't take her with us? Should we leave her here? She's a girl, she doesn't even have any relatives around her. What if she gets bullied by little hooligans? Can you rest assured?"
"What should we do? We can't take her with us, but we won't feel at ease if we don't. What will happen to Yingying? Old Song, we only have this one daughter, and I really don't want to see her suffer. I heard that as long as she gets married and her partner has a job in the city, Yingying won't have to go to the countryside."
"Marry? Our family is in this situation now. If you and I were in the same situation, who would dare to marry Yingying?"
"Get married...get married...Yingying was engaged when she was a child! That childhood engagement! Old Song, have you forgotten?"
Song Yingying's mother held her husband's arm tightly with both hands, her eyes full of anticipation.
Song Yingying's father thought of what happened several years ago, the boy who insisted on returning his money, "You mean... the boy Zhao... Zhao... who saved Yingying from falling into the water?"
"Yes, it's him! The fortune teller said that they were a perfect match and were destined to be together. I didn't believe it before, but now it seems that I have to believe it. It's him!" Song Yingying's mother said excitedly, "I remember that child later joined the army. If Yingying can become a military dependent, ordinary people will not dare to bully her."
"We haven't been in touch for so many years. Maybe he has already gotten married in the army." Song Yingying's father said with a frown.
They even forgot Zhao Weidong's name. When they were at their wits' end and in despair, they remembered their childhood engagement.
"Old Song, face is nothing. For Yingying's sake, you should go out and send a telegram to his army. What if he gets married?"
"Okay, let's give it a try. I'll risk my reputation for Yingying."
Just like that, a telegram was sent to Zhao Weidong's troops.
When Zhao Weidong hurried over, the Song couple realized that they had looked down on the boy in the first place. If he was the head of the army, he would be able to protect Song Yingying.
After.
It was with the help of Zhao Weidong that the Song couple changed their location in the countryside so that they didn't have to suffer so much.
Afterwards, Song Yingying and Zhao Weidong reported their marriage and followed the army to the southwest...
