Lu Shishen nodded, "Now it seems to be true."

Just now her tears were like raindrops, but after knowing the truth, Yang Niannian stopped crying instantly. It was not worth it.

She sniffed, puffed up her cheeks and glared at Lu Shishen, "The logistics soldier you sent to help me move is also a liar. Your son is already this big, and he still said that you have been single for 26 years. Who is single for 26 years and has a child who is only five or six years old?"

After a while of nagging, Yang Niannian felt relieved. Seeing that Lu Shishen was very stable, she asked angrily, "When did you get divorced?"

“I’m not divorced.”

Yang Niannian's anger instantly subsided a little, and he asked in a gentle tone, "Is your ex-wife dead?"

"..." Lu Shishen's eyes twitched, "I don't have an ex-wife."

Worried that Yang Niannian might ask something outrageous again, he added, "An An is the child of my comrade-in-arms. Half a year ago, his father died in the line of duty, his mother is missing, and his grandparents passed away, so I took him to live with me to take care of him."

It turned out that it was a martyr who entrusted his orphan to someone else. An unmarried man was willing to help his comrade raise his son. It was obvious that he was a man of extraordinary character. Yang Niannian thought of the words that had just been used to call him a stink bug and say that he was bringing discredit to the army, and she wished she could bite off her tongue.

Her face turned red with shame, and she regretted how she had been so mean before, not asking clearly before scolding.

Seeing her cheeks getting redder and redder, Lu Shishen, who had never been with a girl, thought she was angry. After thinking for a while, he still spoke.

"If you still have a grudge against me because of this and don't want to get along with me, I'll take you to the station."

"Don't send me to the station all the time. I didn't say I don't want to live with you anymore."

Yang Niannian felt a little aggrieved. "I'm a 20-year-old girl, and I'm suddenly going to be a stepmother. Isn't it normal for me to complain? We slept in the same bed last night. Who would believe that nothing happened if I told others? If we get divorced, I'll be legally married for the second time."

“…”

This is absolutely true.

Yang Niannian was willing to stay, and Lu Shishen actually felt relieved, without even realizing it.

Seeing that he remained silent, Yang Niannian made a promise, "Don't worry, since An An's biological father is a martyr, I will treat An An as... as my own brother in the future."

She was only twenty years old, and she couldn't bring herself to treat An An as her son.

Lu Shishen didn’t think there was anything wrong with what he heard. They were both at the age where they were still crying, so they were siblings, weren’t they?

"An An doesn't know his background. The last time his father went back to see him, he was only three years old."

Yang Niannian nodded, "Got it, let's go out to eat, I'm hungry."

Lu Anan had almost finished the food in the lunch box. When she saw Yang Niannian coming out with red eyes, she thought that she was crying because of Lu Shishen's scolding, and she felt a little happy.

Dad didn't scold him, but scolded Yang Niannian, which shows that he still loves him.

The three of them finished their meal quietly. Lu Shishen took the lunch box to the kitchen to wash it, and Yang Niannian followed him to the kitchen door.

Holding onto the door frame, he said, "We can't always rely on you to get food from the army to support our family of three. I want to go to the city to buy some kitchen supplies tomorrow so that I can cook for you at home."

"good."

Lu Shishen, who was washing dishes, agreed and said nothing else.

Yang Niannian looked at his back as he washed the lunch box, and opened her mouth, but still felt too embarrassed to speak. In her previous life, when she asked her parents for living expenses, she just acted coquettishly and got it. But how could she feel comfortable asking for money from a man she had only known for two days?

What if Lu Shijian refuses? Wouldn’t that be embarrassing?

No, she had to find a way to make money herself.

After standing at the kitchen door for a while, Yang Niannian slowly returned to the main room. Lu Anan was a well-behaved child. After dinner, he lay on the table to do his homework. However, his handwriting was terrible. Every stroke of the character was crooked and looked like it was about to run away from home.

"Come in with me." Lu Shishen came in from outside and went straight to the inner room.

Yang Niannian followed him into the house and saw him take out a stack of money and an envelope from the corner of the wooden box. There looked to be about two hundred yuan in the money.

He took out ten yuan and handed the rest to Yang Niannian, saying uncomfortably in a tense voice, "Take this money and buy whatever you want."

So... the financial power of the family was given to her like this???

Yang Niannian felt a little secretly happy in her heart, and her fondness for Lu Shishen increased a lot, but...she could understand giving her the money, but what was the point of giving her the letter?

After taking a look at the signature on the letter, Yang Niannian's cheeks puffed up instantly, "Why are you writing to Yang Huiying for me?"

Lu Shishen explained, "This is the living expenses I was going to send to her this month. I won't send it now, so you can keep the money for your own use."

"You still send her money every month?" Yang Niannian opened the envelope sourly, and was relieved to find that there was no other words written inside except twenty yuan.

He was really willing to spend money, sending twenty yuan to Yang Huiying every month. You can imagine how comfortable Yang Huiying's life was at school.

Lu Shishen didn't say anything. At that time, Yang Huiying was his fiancée. Although they had no feelings for each other, Yang Huiying wrote to him saying that her family had no money to support her studies and she could not go.

It is not easy to get into university. He admired Yang Huiying's talent and paid for her to study.

"My family also sends my sister ten yuan every month. With the school subsidy and the money you send her, she lives like a princess in Jiangcheng." Yang Niannian sneered while holding the envelope, "No wonder she wants to compensate me to your family. It cost your family two or three hundred yuan. It's strange that you can pay it back."

As she spoke, her tone became fierce, "Don't send her money anymore. Don't send her a dime. She will starve to death."

Seeing that she was like an angry little lion, Lu Shishen nodded and replied, "Okay."

Lu Shishen went to the army in the afternoon. After Lu Anan finished her homework, she was called out to play by the children in the staff quarters. Yang Niannian cleaned up the weeds in the yard and cleaned the kitchen again. She was busy for more than an hour and suddenly felt a little pain in her lower abdomen.

After searching anxiously, she found that there was no toilet in the courtyard. She covered her stomach and ran to the downstairs where she lived before to use the toilet. When she came out, she accidentally bumped into a soldier's wife.

"Who is this? Don't you even look at the road when walking?" The soldier's wife complained loudly.

"Feel sorry."

Yang Niannian took a step back to steady herself. She looked up and saw the person she bumped into. She felt that she looked familiar. Before she could recognize who this military wife was, she looked her up and down with a look of disgust and asked, "Why are you here?"

Yang Niannian remembered that this was the woman who sat opposite her on the train.

"I am Lu Shishen's lover, where else should I be if not here?" The other party did not look good to her, and Yang Niannian did not look good to her either.

"You...you are Captain Lu's lover?" The woman looked doubtful, but her tone was a little better. Although her husband was not in the same regiment, it was a fact that his position was not as high as Lu Shishen's.
