Chapter 12 The He family misses their son deeply
The three sisters had various scars on their backs and arms, some of which had already healed and looked quite old.
"Zhao Di, your injuries..."
When Bai Wei opened her mouth, He Zhaodi didn't say anything. Instead, the second brother spoke while rubbing the bubbles on his head.
"If we don't take good care of our brother, our mother, grandmother and grandfather will beat us to teach us a lesson."
The third brother even walked behind He Zhaodi and squatted down, counting the scars on her back.
"This is because my younger brother wanted to eat my elder sister's nest, but my elder sister refused to give it to him, so my mother beat him with a bamboo stick."
"My younger brother was beaten for trying to steal the meat from a fellow villager. My older sister failed to protect him, and my grandfather poked the ground with a fire poker."
"This is..."
Before the third brother could finish, He Zhaodi turned around and said, "Mengdi, Yingdi, stop talking."
Bai Wei was listening at the side, burning with anger. Among the three sisters, He Zhaodi suffered the most injuries.
"Zhaodi, Mengdi, Yingdi..."
Hearing the names of the three people, Bai Wei sneered. The He family really missed their son to the core.
Bai Wei took the three of them to bathe in the bathhouse for more than half an hour. When they finished, Mengdi and Yingdi smelled the fragrance on their own bodies, and their rosy, apple-like faces were full of smiles.
"Big sister, we all smell good."
He Zhaodi held Mengdi with her left hand and Yingdi with her right hand, and bowed to Bai Wei.
"Thank you."
The second and third sons also followed He Zhaodi's example and bowed to Bai Wei obediently.
Bai Wei smiled and took He Zhaodi's hand, "Let's go out."
The four of them walked out of the bathhouse together. The snow outside had stopped, the sky gradually darkened, and a dim light came on at the door of the bathhouse.
"You three, your mother has taken your brother back home and asked you to fetch some water to take back."
Zhang Zhigang looked at He Zhaodi and her two sisters, waved his hand and said.
"I understand, uncle."
He Zhaodi took her two sisters to fetch water. Bai Wei let out a long sigh and slowly walked out.
With the help of the light, Zhang Zhigang was able to see her appearance clearly and stared at Bai Wei in a daze.
"Who... who are you? How dare you enter the bathhouse without paying a ticket! Buy your ticket now!"
Bai Wei at this time was wearing a green military uniform. She had a small face the size of a palm, eyebrows like willow leaves, skin like cream, rosy lips, charming peach blossom eyes, especially her waist-length black hair, which made her look even more beautiful.
"Hey, I just paid four tickets! Are you saying I evaded the ticket?"
As soon as Bai Wei spoke, Zhang Zhigang recognized her. He looked Bai Wei up and down. He rubbed his eyes and couldn't believe that such a charming beauty who looked like she came out of a New Year picture could be the sloppy and shrewish woman just now.
"Who...are you?!"
Zhang Zhigang looked at Bai Wei. She was so beautiful that she was unique in the entire army.
"Bai Wei..."
A familiar voice was heard, and Zhang Zhigang turned his head stiffly, watching with his own eyes Song Qinian walk up to Bai Wei and take the enamel basin from her hand.
"This suit suits you very well."
Looking at Bai Wei wearing a military uniform, which was a set of female soldier's clothes that Song Qinian specially asked someone for, after she put it on, she really had some of the heroic appearance of a female soldier.
Bai Wei looked at Song Qinian. His eyes were calm, as if he was not surprised at all by the huge contrast between her before and after.
"How long have you been waiting?"
Looking at the snow falling on Song Qinian's head, Bai Wei, who always had obsessive-compulsive disorder, naturally tiptoed and gently brushed off the snow on his military cap and shoulders.
She stepped on her feet and moved her little face towards Song Qinian. Her delicate facial features were magnified in front of his eyes. Song Qinian felt his heart tighten for a beat.
"Not long after, he came out after giving the fat kid a bath."
The so-called bathing meant that Song Qinian showered He Chengcai a few times, made him stand in military posture for ten minutes, and then threw him out to Wang Cuihua.
He Chengcai was completely shocked by Song Qinian, and only when he fell into Wang Cuihua's arms did he burst into tears.
Wang Cuihua was so angry that she exploded, but she didn't dare to disrespect Song Qinian, so she could only hug He Chengcai and leave in a hurry.
"He is indeed a fat little boy!"
He Chengcai is chubby, which forms a sharp contrast with the skinny He Zhaodi and her two sisters.
Thinking of this, Bai Wei's face turned a little colder.
The snow fell heavily and heavier.
Song Qinian looked at the snow falling on Bai Wei's wet hair. He frowned, took off his military cap and put it on Bai Wei's head.
Bai Wei was a little stunned when he buttoned her cap. She lifted up the wide military cap. Her face was only the size of a palm, and the cap almost covered half of her face.
This scene made Zhang Zhigang, who was standing by, open his eyes wide!
Captain Song actually gave his military cap to this woman?!
This, this... is this still Song Qinian, the King of Yan in the army?
Captain Song has always been cold and taciturn, but in front of this woman, he was gentle and affectionate, and even gave her his military cap. What was going on?
"Your military cap..."
Bai Wei was about to take off his hat, but Song Qinian pushed it down.
"Xue Da, you wear it."
Bai Wei was stunned. There was still a trace of his warmth in the military cap. She touched the cap on her head and smiled brightly at Song Qinian.
She has always been a loner, and this is the first time she feels cared for by someone. It seems... pretty good.
Gulp...
Bai Wei's stomach suddenly rumbled, but she wasn't embarrassed and patted her belly.
"People are like iron, and food is like steel. If you don't eat a meal, you will be very hungry! I haven't eaten for two meals!"
Her carefree and informal look made Song Qinian smile even more.
"Here, I brought it for you."
Song Qinian took out an aluminum lunch box from his arms, and Bai Wei took it. The lunch box was still warm, and he kept the lunch box in his arms to keep it warm in such a heavy snow.
As Bai Wei opened the lunch box, the aroma filled the air. There was a solid layer of rice, covered with shredded potatoes and fried cabbage, and in the center were six stewed pork ribs.
“Smells so good!”
Bai Wei swallowed hard, his eyes shining.
She hasn't tasted white rice for more than a month.
"It's cold here, go back and eat."
Song Qinian's voice was gentle, clear and mellow. There was a smile on the corner of his lips and his eyes were like deep and shallow amber, full of tenderness.
Bai Wei turned around and saw Mengdi and Yingdi had just finished fetching water. He Zhaodi was looking at the broken water bottle on the ground with a worried look on her face.
"Sister, the thermos is broken. Will mother make us kneel down as punishment?..."
"It's snowing. I don't want to kneel in the snow anymore, big sister..."
