Zhou Yi: If you're too busy, just refuse their invitations! Or, after dropping the kids off in the morning, lock the door as soon as you get home!
Chen Hong: I feel like they're watching me every day! They know my daily routine better than I do myself!
The Book of Changes: ...
Zhou Yi: No, I'll call them all and tell them to go home?
Chen Hong: Wouldn't that be tantamount to a showdown? How can I pretend I don't know?
Zhou Yi: Can you keep up the pretense?
Chen Hong: Who do you think you are! I'm a professional at playing dumb!
The Book of Changes: ...
Yes, you're good at playing dumb, otherwise how could I have been blocked for months!
But you really underestimate my parents' ability to argue and be unreasonable. Compared to me, their skills are hellish.
With your cunning and shrewd uncle providing assistance, Chen Hong, you have no chance of escaping this time!
Zhou Yi was worried for Chen Hong, and also worried for himself. He was really afraid that the three elders in his family would make a big fuss and he would become the target of Chen Hong's anger.
However, he was secretly pleased, as the three elders' intervention might expedite his marriage.
Now he doesn't dare to tell Chen Hong, so he can only humble himself and coax this woman.
What could he do? His family's elders had caused trouble for others, so on the surface, he could only apologize on their behalf and show that he was wholeheartedly for Chen Hong!
As for secretly encouraging the three elderly people, he couldn't let Chen Hong know about that. If she turned against him, it would be the end of him!
These past few days, Zhou Yi has been exchanging text messages with Chen Hong daily, trying to keep track of the progress of the matter in real time.
He had to keep it a secret from both sides and get advice from both. Zhou Yi shrugged, indicating that he was also in a dilemma!
Zhou Yi chuckled slyly and immediately sent a text message to his mother: Mom, you went to Yujia Village without my knowledge, and Chen Hong is making trouble for me. She accused me of letting you go!
Zhou Yi: I'm about to be kicked! Critical level: Two stars!
Half an hour later, his mother's text message arrived.
Zhou Yi's Mom: You're so stupid! Can't you play dumb? Can't you play weak? You can't do either, no wonder you can't find a wife!
The Book of Changes: ...
Zhou Yi's Mom: Remember, you know nothing! If all else fails, just go on a mission and disappear!
Zhou Yi: You really know how to play this game. Aren't you afraid of messing it up and leaving your son a bachelor?
Zhou Yi's Mom: Just stay silent!
The Book of Changes: ...
He was relieved; his mother was definitely the type who would become stronger with each setback.
Zhou Yi put down his phone, put his hands under his head, lay on the bed and dreamed: "If I work hard, maybe I can get married this year!"
He also had a wife and children, and he thought about the Zhou family's characteristic of producing mostly boys and not girls.
He suddenly remembered the beautiful dream he had last night: a delicate little girl rushed into his arms!
Zhou Yi jumped out of bed! It seems that ever since he got together with Chen Hong, they have never taken any contraceptive measures.
Did he have a dream about his daughter last night? Was the daughter that his Zhou family had been longing for for generations finally coming?
Zhou Yi's heart raced with excitement! The surprise was overwhelming, and he felt like a caged wild animal, pacing around the dormitory with a silly grin.
Suddenly, the door was kicked open with a loud bang, and Li Guangliang's loud, bandit-like voice came from outside, "Zhou Yi, why aren't you sleeping in the middle of the night? What kind of hysteria are you having!"
If you really can't sleep, go run ten kilometers on the track. What are you doing messing around in the dorm? I'm going to do drills tomorrow!
Without waiting for Zhou Yi's reply, he went back to his room to sleep, grumbling all the while.
Zhou Yi wasn't angry at being scolded; he quickly took off his clothes and went to bed. Even if he couldn't sleep, he had to lie down; the military camp wasn't his family's courtyard house.
He counted several large flocks of sheep in bed but couldn't fall asleep. When the reveille sounded in the morning, he got up with dark circles under his eyes to wash up.
Seeing his ridiculous appearance, Li Guangliang burst out laughing; his irritability from the previous night had completely vanished.
"Hey Lao Zhou, this won't do! Hurry up and get married so your wife can come with you to the military!"
"Don't let the pent-up heat in your body damage your kidneys!"
Zhou Yi was in a good mood and didn't want to argue with him, but he wouldn't let him talk nonsense about his kidneys.
"Whether I'm married or not, at least I have a partner! What gives single men the right to laugh at me?"
You've never even held a woman's hand, have you? You'd better hurry up and find a girlfriend first!
One sentence ignited a bombshell: "Who do you think you are? I may not have been married like you, but I've been on plenty of blind dates."
I've dated at least a platoon, not a whole company, and we've already held hands and kissed. We're just one step away from consummating our marriage!
"Alright, alright, you're experienced, you're amazing, okay?" Zhou Yi knew when to stop. He couldn't afford to mess with this hot-tempered bachelor; he wasn't worth wasting his breath on!
However, he trained with such fervor that his soldiers were constantly complaining about how exhausting it was.
"What's wrong with Zhou Ying? Did he take performance-enhancing drugs?"
"He probably has a girlfriend now, he must be really bored!"
"Bullshit! I said he's on his period! Not only is he going crazy, but he's also making us go crazy with him!"
"Stop talking! Zhou Ying is watching you. Don't let him find out you're talking about him behind his back, or you'll be in big trouble!"
Zhou Yi, now with sharp hearing and keen eyesight, had already overheard their whispers.
"Liu Yugang, Wang Zongli, and Zhao Guangfu, step forward!"
The group exchanged glances: We're doomed! That devil has discovered us!
"Great energy! I can make you even more energetic!"
Run 10 kilometers with weights and set a new record! Don't let me down, the whole battalion is watching!
"Zhou Ying, we were wrong!"
At this moment, Liu Yugang, ever the quick-witted chatterbox, suddenly chimed in, "Report! I've been on my period these past few days, please, Commander Zhou, have mercy!"
