Chapter 13: A man can protect his family and country, so it is better to have a son

Mengdi and Yingdi squatted beside He Zhaodi. The three sisters frowned and looked at the broken water bottle on the ground.

"Zhaodi, Mengdi, Yingdi, raise your heads!"

Bai Wei walked over to the three sisters, and they subconsciously raised their heads and opened their mouths slightly.

Three pieces of pork ribs were quickly stuffed into the mouths of the three people. They were soft, tender and smooth, with a sweet taste. The three little ones' wrinkled brows were relaxed.

He Zhaodi was the first to react, she stood up and spoke.

"Thank you, Sister Bai."

"You guys hurry home, I'm leaving now."

Bai smiled and waved at the three of them, covered the lunch box, and carefully held it in her arms. Song Qinian accompanied her and left.

"Sister, the spareribs are so delicious, Sister Bai is so nice."

Yingdi took out the bone. The meat had been eaten up, but she was reluctant to throw it away. She sucked it over and over in her hand.

"The thermos is broken. Why don't we ask Sister Bai to help us..."

Mengdi's mind moved, and she wanted to call Bai Wei as soon as she took a step.

He Zhaodi grabbed her and said, "Sister, we made a mistake ourselves, we can't trouble others. If mother wants to punish me by kneeling, I will kneel."

In the bright white snow, Bai Wei and Song Qinian walked together towards the guesthouse.

"That Wang Cuihua, who favors boys over girls, is really unworthy of being a mother! Song Qinian, you won't blame me for sharing the ribs with them, right?"

Bai Wei held the lunch box and muttered softly.

In that day and age, meat was not always available. She gave out three pieces in one breath. Would Song Qinian think she was a spendthrift?

"You have the right to distribute what is given to you, and I should not interfere."

Song Qinian answered in a serious tone.

Bai Wei turned her head and looked at him, thinking that Wang Cuihua had given birth to seven children in a row just to have a son, and that this was probably what her man was thinking.

"Hey, Song Qinian, do you also want a son in the future?"

Song Qinian's expression straightened up, "A man can protect his family and country and sacrifice his life in the war of resistance. Of course, it's better to have a son!"

His words made Bai Wei curl her lips. What was the difference between Song Qinian and Deputy Battalion Commander He?

Bai Wei moved to the side, subconsciously keeping a distance from Song Qinian.

She had been chirping like a lark before, but now she stopped talking, which made Song Qinian feel a little uncomfortable. But he just thought Bai Wei was frozen, so he quickened his pace and rushed to the guesthouse.

Song Qinian is 1.88 meters tall, and Bai Wei is only 1.58 meters tall, much shorter than him.

His long legs pushed her forward with two steps at a time, and his speed increased. In the end, Bai Wei almost jogged behind him all the way back to the guesthouse, running until she was out of breath.

"We're here. Please go in."

Song Qinian sent Bai Wei to the door of the guesthouse before he spoke.

Bai Wei was feeling unhappy, so she took the enamel basin from his hand without saying a word, turned around and walked into the guesthouse.

"Bai Wei..."

Song Qinian suddenly called her over, and Bai Wei turned her head to look at him.

"I have submitted the marriage application report today. If everything goes well, it will be approved tomorrow. When do you want to hold the wedding?"

Bai Wei was stunned for a moment, "This... so fast?"

Song Qinian is so efficient!

"You set the date, and I'll follow your lead."

Song Qinian's face felt a little hot, but because his skin was dark and Bai Wei was far away, he didn't notice it.

As soon as he finished speaking, he stood at attention, saluted Bai Wei, turned around and jogged away.

"Hey, Song Qinian, your military cap..."

Bai Wei picked up his military cap and waved at Song Qinian, but he just waved his hand away.

"I'll come get it from you tomorrow!"

Watching Song Qinian's back disappear in the heavy snow, Bai Weileng shuddered, turned around and ran into the guesthouse.

Back in the room, Bai Wei quickly opened the lunch box. She had kept it close to her all the way, and when she opened it, the rice was still steaming.

She was really hungry, so she picked up her chopsticks and gobbled the food up ravenously. The rice was packed tightly, taking up at least half of the aluminum lunch box, but she didn't waste a single grain of it, and ate it all, including the vegetables and juice.

belch……

Bai Wei covered her stomach and burped, looking at the empty aluminum lunch box. This time she was finally full.

After washing the aluminum lunch box and putting it away, Bai Wei brushed her teeth with tooth powder, took out Chunjuan Astragalus Cream, scooped a small amount and applied it all over her face. She could feel that her tense skin finally felt a little relieved.

After washing up, Bai Wei took off her coat and went to bed.

Everything she was wearing was prepared by Song Qinian. The quilt she was covering herself with was solid and warm, also given by Song Qinian. The printed pillowcase she was leaning on even had a scent of mothballs, also given by Song Qinian.

"This Song Qinian is good in every way, except that he favors boys over girls, which is a feudal mentality!"

Bai Wei sat on the bed, looking at the room full of things Song Qinian had given her, and complained with a pout.

"Hey, Bai Wei, you and him are just in a fake marriage and you won't give birth to a child for him, why do you mind this..."

Bai Wei pulled the quilt and lay down on the bed. It had been too long since she had felt this soft and fluffy feeling.

After surviving in the wilderness for more than a month, this was the first time she could sleep so soundly. As soon as she closed her eyes, Bai Wei fell into a deep sleep.

The snow covered the sky and the ground, and everything was covered in silver.

In the darkness of night, Song Qinian arrived at the family compound west of the division headquarters. There were six rows of family compounds, all of which were small bungalows. Almost every house had a small courtyard. The conditions here were much better than those in the guesthouse.

Song Qinian walked all the way to the yard of the third house in the sixth row and knocked on the door.

Soon, light footsteps were heard in the room. The door opened and a thin figure poked his head out. He had a small oval face and round eyes.

“Ah…ah…”

The little girl opened her mouth, but the sound that came out was as unpleasant as pulling a saw.

A hurried figure appeared in the room. He Mengdi came out and pulled the girl, "Xiao Liu, why did you run out?"

“Ahh…”

Lao Liu gestured to He Mengdi and pointed towards the yard. He Mengdi pulled her behind her. When she looked up, she saw Song Qinian standing at the door.

"Uncle Captain, why are you here?"

Zhang Zhigang called Song Qinian "Captain Song" and He Mengdi was smart and remembered it immediately.

"Mengdi, she is..."

Song Qinian pointed at Lao Liu behind her, and He Mengdi glanced at her sister.

"She is the sixth child in our family, named Baonan. She is a dumb little girl who can't speak. Uncle Captain, are you here to look for my father?"

He Baonan...

Song Qinian shook his head silently, and Lao Liu shrank behind He Mengdi, shrinking timidly.

"Yes, I'm looking for your father. Is he home?"

He Mengdi opened the door and warmly welcomed Song Qinian into the house.

"Yes, Dad is drinking. Uncle Captain, please come in."

Her voice is crisp and very polite.

Song Qinian walked into the house and saw the thin and small figure in the yard at a glance.

He Zhaodi was kneeling in the yard, with a thick layer of snow on her head and body, and her body was shaking constantly. Baonan had already run to her side and was squatting next to his sister.

“Ah, ah…”

The sixth child seemed to be afraid that his sister would feel cold, so he tried to stick his small body close to her.
