Wu Meiyun hopes that Zhao Zhenzhu will take the children to follow Zhou Bingchen to join the army as soon as possible.
Guangshi is thousands of kilometers away from Zhoujia Village. Even if Ding Ermei is not convinced, she can't go all the way to Guangshi to cause trouble for Zhao Zhenzhu. Many conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are caused by being too close to each other.
Distance creates beauty and can also ease the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
"Mom, Zhenzhu's permission to join the army has been approved. If Zhenzhu is willing, she can take the children to live with the army first. I will ask Captain Zheng and his wife to take care of them. Anyway, I will return to the army after completing further studies in Beijing, but I don't know how long the studies will take." Zhou Bingchen said.
"I won't join the army." Zhao Zhenzhu refused.
The words "I want a divorce" were already on the tip of Zhao Zhenzhu's lips, but she swallowed them back.
Zhao Zhenzhu was afraid of being beaten for talking about divorce in front of Zhao Qingshan and his wife.
Before, Zhou Bingchen wasn’t even a company commander, but Zhao Zhenzhu insisted on marrying him.
Over the past seven years, Zhao Zhenzhu has been working in the fields to earn work points and taking care of her children in Zhoujia Village. She has endured all these hard times.
Now that Zhou Bingchen has become a regimental-level cadre with a bright future, if Zhao Zhenzhu asks for a divorce at this time, even if Zhou Bingchen agrees, Zhao Qingshan and his wife will not agree.
Therefore, if Zhao Zhenzhu wants a divorce, she can only talk to Zhou Bingchen.
As long as the two of them did it secretly, it was a done deal, and even if Zhao Qingshan and Wu Meiyun were unhappy, it would only last for a while.
"Bingchen is not in the army, and Zhenzhu is unfamiliar with the place. She should live at home with the children first." Zhao Qingshan said.
"Or... let Zhenzhu take the children to Beijing to accompany Bingchen to study?" Wu Meiyun always felt that Zhao Zhenzhu should follow Zhou Bingchen.
Zhou Bingchen's injuries haven't healed yet! He needs someone to take care of him.
Isn't it that husband and wife need to support each other and share weal and woe?
"Mom, the military academy definitely doesn't allow people to come in and out as they please. Maybe Zhou Bingchen and the others are studying in a closed environment and can't leave the school for several months! Please don't give me any bad ideas." Zhao Zhenzhu said with a long face.
"Yes, yes, yes, what I said were all bad ideas. You can think of a good idea yourself." Wu Meiyu was very angry.
Her silly girl!
He is really hopelessly stupid.
She let Zhenzhu follow Bingchen to the capital, wasn't it for Zhenzhu's own good?
A thirty-year-old regimental commander would be an outstanding figure wherever he is placed.
There are many bigwigs in Beijing.
Zhenzhu is not with Bingchen. What if Bingchen is favored by a girl from a big boss's family? Zhenzhu's efforts over the years might be in vain.
"Mom, I don't know the situation in Beijing yet. After I report to the school, I will ask how long the further studies will take. If it takes more than a year, it won't be too late for me to call back and let Zhenzhu and the children go to Beijing." Zhou Bingchen saw that Wu Meiyu and Zhao Zhenzhu were arguing with each other, so he hurried to smooth things over.
"Yes, yes, yes, Bingchen is really thoughtful. Meiyun, if Bingchen only needs to study for a few months, Zhenzhu won't have to take the children to Beijing. Jiakai is in school now! The school over there won't accept him for a few months." Zhao Qingshan said.
"Okay, make your own decisions! We, the elders, are just giving some advice." Wu Meiyu's expression improved.
After dinner, Zhou Bingchen hurried to wash the dishes.
Zhao Zhenzhu disliked him, so Zhou Bingchen took the opportunity to show off in front of his father-in-law and mother-in-law, hoping that his father-in-law and mother-in-law would say a few good words for him at the critical moment.
Something unexpected happened when I was sleeping at night.
Zhou Bingchen was just about to sleep on the bamboo couch when he was stopped by Zhou Yunyun.
"Dad, you sleep here, Mom sleeps in the middle, and I sleep inside." Zhou Yunyun patted the edge of the bed and said.
"Yunyun, your father's arm is still injured! Let him sleep on the bamboo couch alone! Our sleeping posture is not good, it will be troublesome if we hit his wound." Before Zhou Bingchen could say anything, Zhao Zhenzhu hurriedly raised her objection.
"No, no. Dad's arms are outside, and we can sleep inside, so we won't bump into each other." Zhou Yunyun disagreed.
"Yunyun, I mean what if, what if, you understand?" Zhao Zhenzhu tried to reason with her daughter.
"There won't be any chances. There won't be any chances." Zhou Yunyun shook her head vigorously.
"Child, why don't you listen? What if your father's wound breaks again, this hand will be disabled. Do you want your father to become disabled?" Zhao Zhenzhu glared at her and her tone became fierce.
Zhou Yunyun stole a glance at Zhou Bingchen.
Behind Zhao Zhenzhu, Zhou Bingchen silently said the word "no" to Zhou Yunyun.
"He won't be disabled. Dad won't become disabled. Mom is lying." Zhou Yunyun was unhappy.
"Your dad definitely won't sleep with us. But if he sleeps with us, it's hard to say." Zhao Zhenzhu curled her lips and said.
Zhou Bingchen winked at Zhou Yunyun.
"I want to sleep with mom and dad. I want to sleep with mom and dad." Zhou Yunyun started to make a fuss.
"Zhou Bingchen, are you doing something wrong?" Zhao Zhenzhu turned her head and asked sternly.
Zhou Yunyun just glanced at Zhou Bingchen and was caught by Zhao Zhenzhu's "eagle eyes and golden pupils".
"No, no, how could I dare!" Zhou Bingchen touched his nose and said with a wry smile.
"It's better not to, otherwise, go back to your Zhoujia Village now!" Zhao Zhenzhu said gritting her teeth.
"Mom is unreasonable." Zhou Yunyun complained.
"Are you obedient? If not, you will sleep with your grandparents tonight." Zhao Zhenzhu said sternly.
Zhou Yunyun still wanted to make trouble.
Zhou Bingchen picked up Zhou Yunyun and put her on the bed, saying, "Yunyun, it's time to go to bed."
"Dad..." Zhou Yunyun's eyes looked a little anxious.
"Zhenzhu, Yunyun, good night." Zhou Bingchen touched Zhou Yunyun's head and turned to walk towards the bamboo couch.
Since Zhao Zhenzhu was unwilling, Zhou Bingchen didn't want to force it.
"Mom, I want to make a request to you with ten little red flowers." Zhou Yunyun jumped up, stood on the bed, and said to Zhao Zhenzhu.
"Sure. You want to eat fried dough cakes, right? Next time Granny Hua sets up her stall, mom will buy some for you." Zhao Zhenzhu nodded and said.
Zhou Yunyun collected eighteen little red flowers.
Yesterday, Zhou Yunyun told Zhao Zhenzhu that she wanted to eat fried dough cakes. When she collected 20 little red flowers, she would ask to buy fried dough cakes.
"I don't want to eat the fried cakes anymore. I want to use ten little red flowers in exchange for dad sleeping with us tonight." Zhou Yunyun put one hand on her waist and pointed at Zhou Bingchen who had just sat on the bamboo couch, and said with great momentum.
Zhao Zhenzhu was stunned.
Ten little red flowers in exchange for Zhou Bingchen sleeping with you?
Yunyun's request really made Zhao Zhenzhu feel a little embarrassed.
When Zhao Zhenzhu established the "Little Red Flower System", she only said that ten little red flowers could satisfy one requirement. She did not say that food, clothing or daily necessities must be bought.
According to regulations, Zhou Yunyun's request is reasonable and Zhao Zhenzhu must do so.
