Seeing Ren Rongzheng about to get up, Zhan Beiqin hurriedly said, "You didn't sleep well last night, and now the three children are still asleep. You should sleep a little longer."
"No need. Nan Jin will be going back to school after dinner. How can I, as her sister-in-law, sleep in here? You should rest for a while."
After Ren Rongzheng finished speaking, he hurried out and closed the door for him. Zhan Beiqin took a deep breath. After all, she was an agent in her previous life and her observation ability was still very sharp. How could she not see such a big contrast in his emotions before and after?
He really didn't want this to happen, but he couldn't overcome his psychological barriers. The only thing he was sure of was that he would never let anything happen to Ren Rongzheng, even if it meant risking his own life. He would never let the scene she had foreseen in her dream happen.
"Sister-in-law, you didn't sleep well last night, why are you up so early?"
Seeing Ren Rongzheng coming out, Zhan Nanjin also said something quickly.
"After you left, I slept very well in the second half of the night, so I'm still quite energetic now. Nan Jin, aren't you going back to school today? I was so busy with the children before that I didn't prepare anything properly for you."
"I'm not a three-year-old child anymore. I'm a college student now. How could I not be able to do something like packing my luggage? Sister-in-law, you've already had a hard time taking care of the children, so you don't have to worry about me."
Zhan Nanjin is really a very warm-hearted little girl, sensible, considerate and obedient. If her little daughter can become like Zhan Nanjin when she grows up, she will probably wake up laughing in her dreams.
But just as she had this expectation and thought it was true, that she would be extremely happy in the future, the dream immediately came back, reminding her that she would not live to see that time, and would not even be able to watch her child grow up.
But she was afraid that they would see her emotions, so she could only suppress them deep in her heart and pretend that nothing had happened.
"Nanjin, hurry up and eat. After you're done, have Xiao Li drive you to school. Xiao Li happens to be on vacation today. I've already asked him in advance."
"Sister-in-law said she was busy with the kids, but she's still thinking about finding a car for me. Actually, there's no need to bother Officer Li. I can take the bus myself, and I don't have much luggage."
"Actually, it was Xiao Li who offered to help. He knew you had to go to school today, and he happened to be on his day off, so he drove you there. Don't refuse. Xiao Li is not an outsider."
"Okay then. Next time I come back from vacation, I'll bring Officer Li a gift, or treat him to a meal. After all, it's a private matter, and I can't always bother him."
The more Ren Rongzheng got to know Zhan Nanjin, the more he liked her. This little girl was so sensible and cute.
"Where's my brother? Is he still not up?"
Zhan Nanjin was almost done with his meal, but Zhan Beiqin didn't come out of the room. He was a soldier after all, and he never slept in.
Ren Rongzheng also glanced at the bedroom. He didn't come out during the whole meal and was obviously avoiding her.
"Isn't your brother feeling unwell? Let him sleep a little longer."
"All right then."
After the meal, Li Kui drove to the door of the house. Ren Rongzheng hurriedly helped Zhan Nanjin put her luggage into the car. Just after Zhan Nanjin got in the car, Zhan Beiqin walked out of the yard.
"Hello, Chief!"
Seeing Zhan Beiqin coming out, Li Kui hurriedly saluted with a sonorous and powerful military salute.
Zhan Beiqin smiled and said, "Xiao Li, please take Nan Jin to school today."
"What are you talking about, Commander? I was just taking a break, and there's nothing to do if I go in. It just so happens that Nan Jin starts school today, so it's perfect for me to come and see her off. Commander, sister-in-law, uncle and aunt, I'm leaving now. If I don't leave now, Nan Jin will be late for school."
After everyone waved goodbye to Zhan Nanjin, Li Kui started the car. The three of them watched the car disappear completely from their sight before they looked away.
"Isn't the age difference between this Officer Li and our Nan Jin too big?" Zhang Shuqin suddenly said.
"Why are you suddenly saying this? Do you still want to bring them together?" Zhan Tianzhu asked.
"Isn't that possible? Nan Jin is already a college student, so it's not too early to think about this kind of thing. I think this Xiao Li is pretty good."
It wouldn't matter if Zhang Shuqin didn't say it, but once Zhan Tianzhu mentioned it, he also felt that it made sense. The two of them were sitting in the car just now, and from this perspective, they did seem to be a good match.
"You know what, I think it's quite plausible." Zhan Tianzhu quickly looked at Zhan Beiqin again, "Beiqin, how old is this Xiao Li this year? He doesn't look much older than Nan Jin. If there really is a chance, I can probably help them get together."
"Little Li is five years older than Nan Jin."
"Five years isn't too big of an age difference. I think this is a good idea."
Zhan Tianzhu and Zhang Shuqin were eager to start matchmaking for the two of them. Zhan Beiqin and Ren Rongzheng remained silent as they both had heavy concerns and could not think of anything else.
"You guys also said that they are not children anymore. If they really like each other, they will get together without anyone else's help, so there is no need to worry about them."
After Zhan Beiqin finished speaking, he looked at Ren Rongzheng and said, "Rongzheng, go back to the house and rest."
Zhan Beiqin took Ren Rongzheng's hand and took her back to the room. Although the two of them were still in physical contact, Ren Rongzheng clearly felt that he avoided looking at her face, which was extremely hurtful to her.
They are husband and wife. If neither of them dares to look her in the eye, how miserable would it be for her as a wife?
Zhan Nanjin went back to school, leaving only the four of them at home. The house was quite lively in the next few days, and Wang Yuxia and Chu Yue often came to see the children.
Wang Yuxia said that the factory has now resumed work, and the workshop is particularly prosperous after the resumption of work. The wives of soldiers are full of enthusiasm, and the unemployed village housewives can't wait and keep asking, hoping to quickly expand production so that they can get jobs.
So after this incident, the business was booming, and what about Chu Yue? Every time she came to see the children, she would bring a lot of gifts for them. Their little hands and feet were covered with gifts from her, and they could hardly wear them all.
Her relationship with Zhan Beiqin these days is still awkward. They seem close, but there is actually a gap between them in their hearts. However, they seem to be getting along on the surface, and it seems warm and sweet to others.
Wang Yuxia and Chu Yue came to see the child as usual that day. They held the child in their arms and couldn't let go. Besides the two of them, there were guests at home.
